Chapter 884: Chapter 709: Entering the Street (2)

City Lord Zhou explained, "This jade amulet is my personal belonging. Over such a long time, it has been continuously imbued with my Pseudo-God aura, giving it a strong Pseudo-God aura as well."

"As long as you wear it, you can conceal your human aura. Even if you enter the Chaotic Street, they will only see you as a Pseudo-God."

Qin An played with the jade amulet in his hand, thoughtfully saying, "But there’s still a problem. Even if they see me as a Pseudo-God, I am still a Pseudo-God entering from the outside, which greatly limits my maneuvering space."

"To the Pseudo-Gods in the Chaotic Street, even if I enter as a Pseudo-God, I am still a Pseudo-God from outside, which will attract a lot of attention and could even provoke action against me. This jade amulet can reduce my troubles, but not by much."

After hearing this, City Lord Zhou shook his head and said, "In fact, every year there are Pseudo-Gods who join the Chaotic Street from our place. They are all under the Dragon Vein’s suppression, with their grudges exhausted. But being confined in one place for so long also cultivates new grudges."

"Therefore, you can completely disguise yourself as a Pseudo-God who has just started to harbor some grudges and wants to join the Chaotic Street, to completely sink within it."

Hearing this, Qin An furrowed his brows slightly and then fell into contemplation.

He was unsure whether City Lord Zhou’s plan would work, but since meeting City Lord Zhou, every word Zhou had spoken seemed very reasonable.

Thus, it seemed feasible.

However, Qin An was also considering whether this trip was worthwhile.

Seeing Qin An not speak, City Lord Zhou also fell into silence.

He was waiting for Qin An to give him an answer.

After all, he knew it was very dangerous here, and it was normal if Qin An wasn’t willing to agree.

If Qin An truly didn’t want to agree, he had no way to force Qin An to do it since they weren’t those grudge-filled Pseudo-Gods.

After pondering for a while, Qin An finally lifted his head, nodded, and said, "Why not."

He had thought it through quite clearly; he could and must undertake this trip.

The reason was not only to forge the supreme foundation but also because the Heavenly Demon was about to descend.

Although past events with the Sea of Hope delayed the Heavenly Demon’s descent, Qin An knew it was only a stalling tactic.

If the descent of the Heavenly Demon slowed, and he hadn’t made any progress here, not even forging the supreme foundation of the Celestial Human Realm, death awaited him.

Thus, Qin An must seize every opportunity to find ways to elevate his strength qualitatively, so he had the cards to face the Heavenly Demon.

Instead of waiting for the Heavenly Demon to descend and being toyed with like a ball.

That’s not Qin An’s nature.

Sometimes, taking a little risk is worth it because the rewards from risks are proportional.

After Qin An gave his response, City Lord Zhou visibly breathed a sigh of relief.

He initially thought Qin An, after considering for so long, wouldn’t give a definitive answer and thought it was only human nature.

But unexpectedly, Qin An was genuinely willing to do this and agreed so straightforwardly.

At this moment, his view of Qin An changed.

He was not an impulsive young man but a young person with extremely strong and decisive judgment and a very resolute nature.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have agreed to go to the Chaotic Street to help solve this matter in such a short time.

City Lord Zhou thought for a moment, then suddenly clasped his fists toward Qin An, saying, "If this trip succeeds, you will be the benefactor of this City of Past Life Obsession. Rest assured, once we’re out, we definitely won’t cause trouble for the Daqian Kingdom."

Qin An nodded slightly, "I know."

He didn’t care if these people caused trouble or not; in fact, though these Pseudo-Gods were many, to the now impenetrably constructed Daqian Kingdom, they were merely an appetizer.

Even if they wanted to cause havoc afterward, the Daqian Kingdom would swiftly mobilize to shatter this batch of Pseudo-Gods into pieces.

Hence, what he most needed was to quickly go to the so-called Chaotic Street and first forge the supreme foundation.

After all, forging the supreme foundation is what he most needs to address.

Having discussed everything that needed discussing, Qin An felt lingering here was only a waste of time.

He stood up slowly and walked out.

Soon, Qin An’s figure disappeared inside the City Lord’s Mansion.

Seeing Qin An disappear, City Lord Zhou sighed with emotion.

"Only in turbulent times can heroes emerge, and the Daqian Kingdom has now gained a young talent. Heaven surely favors it."

"However, as long as the people can live good lives, it doesn’t matter to us remnants whether it’s the former dynasty or the Daqian Kingdom."

Thinking of this, City Lord Zhou spoke no more, picked up the nearby teacup, took a sip, and waited patiently.

Although he appeared calm, a ripple stirred within his heart.

Because he was also uncertain whether Qin An could succeed.

It was more like randomly picking someone to try their luck, hoping that luck would be extremely favorable and their mission accomplished, so they could finally be free.

Qin An hadn’t given much thought to what City Lord Zhou was pondering. At this moment, he had already left the City Lord’s Mansion and arrived outside the Chaotic Street.

Standing outside, he was actually able to see the scene within the Chaotic Street.

Inside was a stretch of black mist, though not thick, it shrouded everything appropriately, obscuring what lay within.

Besides this black mist, Qin An’s ears caught shrill, eerie howls, with a chilling aura emanating slowly from inside.

Qin An knew this was the aura of the Pseudo-Gods, which seemed never to be concealed, unapologetically radiating outward.

As if declaring their existence to any who came here.

Qin An pondered for a moment, took a deep breath, gripped the hilt of his sword, hesitated no longer, and stepped into the street.

As soon as Qin An stepped onto the street, the cold sensation intensified.

Furthermore, he sensed numerous eyes watching him from within the hazy black mist.

The emotions of these eyes varied.

Curiosity, sighs, and a tinge of confusion.

Yet, common to all these emotions was a bloodthirsty intent.

The Pseudo-Gods of Chaotic Street were different from those outside; they hadn’t had their grudges ground away by the Dragon Vein.

On the contrary, fueled by grudges, they grew increasingly powerful, and even the Dragon Vein couldn’t suppress them.

Perhaps it was for this reason that City Lord Zhou wanted him to give it a try.

After Qin An stepped in, those eyes regarded him briefly but soon lost interest and turned away.

Qin An subconsciously glanced at his waist token, which emitted a cold aura that spread throughout his body.

And when this aura spread through him, he realized that he no longer exuded a human aura.

Or rather, the human aura he was exuding was temporarily blocked by the jade amulet.

Otherwise, the moment he stepped in, the owners of those eyes likely would have pounced, tearing him to pieces.

So what’s the next step?

Qin An stroked his chin, pondering.

He certainly couldn’t shout out here and draw those Pseudo-Gods’ attention.

Doing so would make him stand out, posing a danger of exposure.

After much contemplation, Qin An decided to wander the street first, to see if he could find any clues.

But just as he thought of this, a figure was slowly approaching.
