Slayer of Gods: I lied; I became the agent of the Nine Gods.

Because of the deity's interference, Zuo Qing was completely helpless against Lu and his group.

After watching the few rascals get a few blows, Lu Yu casually opened a Divine Ruins to heal some of their minor injuries.

Zuo Qing, who witnessed this scene: ...

How sweet...

If you're any slower, the wound will heal!

Is this how you use Shenxu?

Zuo Qing stated that she was absolutely not envious of Lin Qiye's team for having such a healer!

Absolutely not!

"You few come back to the capital with me first. The Special Operations Division will follow up on the Baili family's affairs..."

Before Zuo Qing could finish speaking, she saw the distrustful look that Lu Yu had started with—

The members of the fifth squad: Stare—

Zuo Qing waved his hand dismissively: "What are you looking at? Don't worry... what's owed to that kid won't be shortchanged by even a penny."

Lin Qiye chuckled and said, "Of course we trust Director Zuo Qing's character and conduct..."

"Lin Qiye...you too, first take care of some of the members of your team..."

Zuo Qing glanced meaningfully at Lu Yu, who was still jumping around in front of Jia Lan behind Lin Qiye.

Lin Qiye: ...Please don't say that yet, this really needs to be addressed...

However, now is not the time. The best time to teach a naughty child a lesson is when he is caught off guard.

So, just as Lu Yu had landed in the capital after a safe journey with them, and was about to suggest going for a late-night snack, Lin Qiye grabbed her by the back of her collar.

Lu Yu hadn't reacted yet: "Captain, what's wrong?"

Lin Qiye smiled and stroked the girl's white hair:

"Now that this matter has been largely resolved... let's have a proper talk... about your various actions in the Baili family?"

Behind him, Fatty and Cao Yuan wore expressions of deep agreement, while Jialan pursed his lips, his eyes also showing disapproval of Lu Yu's actions at the Baili family. As for An Qingyu...

He was smiling like a black dahlia, practically clapping and cheering.

"...I didn't do anything, did I?"

Thinking about what she had done... Lu Yu's voice became somewhat weak.

"It was just... just letting loose a little~"

Isn't this too much?

Lin Qiye: Hehe.

Is that what you call letting loose?

When Lu Yu was stabbed by Zhan Bai, Lin Qiye almost hallucinated that rainy night...

Especially after learning about Lu Yu's special status from An Qingyu, Lin Qiye even worried that if they weren't watching over her one day, Lu Yu would disappear.

"...So, let's conduct some safety training based on why you stopped that knife attack this time, and some of your previous dangerous behaviors..."

In the end, Lu Yu's late-night snack plans fell through.

…………

The system had just kicked Luo Hou into the deep ditch of the mental sea and returned to find Lu Yu looking bitter and resentful, one hand propped on the table with her face upturned, the other holding a pen and constantly poking at the notebook with the pen tip.

[What’s wrong with you?]

The girl's eyes lit up slightly: "Speaker! You're back!"

It's so good to be back!

System: ??? Something's definitely fishy here!

"Can you write a self-criticism? Do you? Even a template would be helpful!"

Lu Yu blinked, looked at the first page of the notebook on the table where the words "Letter of Apology" were written in large characters, frowned, and muttered under her breath.

"I was just opening a Divine Ruins normally... why are you making such a fuss? I already explained that it was a prerequisite, and there was nothing to feel at all..."

[...It looks a little scary, but they care about you a lot.]

Lu Yu's gaze softened, and she squinted like a satisfied kitten: "That's..."

"But I really don't know how to write a self-criticism..."

The system sighed and said, "I don't have that kind of record. Wait a few minutes, I'll ask a friend."

friend?

Lu. Sensitive word radar. Yu Meng perked up: "I haven't asked you yet, when did you make friends?"

[...met online.]

"Oh ho ho~ Netizens~"

[...a proper friend.]

"I didn't say you guys were being indecent~ Hehe~"

The system didn't intend to argue with Lu Yu, so it directly knocked on the chat window with the netizen and asked for a template of a self-criticism.

Lu Yu then began to contentedly copy the instructions while listening to the system summarize the gains of the past few days.

[Tonight's earnings of false reputation points mostly came from your teammates seeing you get slashed, and a portion came from Zuo Qing.]

Total current energy: 25 points.

Lu Yu: "So many?"

[How much? Opening the permanent passage for the return of the primordial gods requires ten million Virtual Word Points. Do you have them?]

Lu Yu silently shut her mouth: Now that you mention it, I really am quite poor...

"At this rate, how long will it take me to save up..."

I'm afraid that even by the time the finale is over, everyone will still be gone.

[No, if your strength improves quickly, you can use half the amount of falsehood points.]

Does that mean I'm either poor or not strong enough?

[...And as for Daji, I'll pass on a message for him...]

Upon hearing this, Lu Yu immediately perked up: "What? What did Daji say?"

Could there be something wrong with the arrogant guy?

Or... what other plans does the Church of the Ancient Gods have?

[He said...]

The system's voice paused briefly, then read out Daji's words verbatim through the tablet's electronic announcement:

[Your Highness, seeing this letter is like seeing you in person; opening it brings a smile to my face.]

I've already made arrangements these past few days, and Young Master Shen has been sent by the Church of the Ancient Gods to infiltrate the Night's Watch. He should be able to return to your side tomorrow.

Young Master Shen has been at peace during his days at church; there is no need to worry.

As for the Church of the Ancient Gods... I think that although its headquarters here is a bit simple, it is still quite spacious.

Your Highness, rest assured, within six months I will make this your first little garden in the mortal realm!

Lu Yu: "..."

Lu Yu: "!!!"

Mr. Daji!!!

What exactly did you do?

How did a single action turn this arrogant guy into a spy within a spy within a spy?

And that little garden, are you serious?

[Wait...it's not over yet.]

The system, somewhat gloating, didn't give Lu Yu a chance to scratch his feet and continued reading:

I heard from Young Master Shen that Yiyu had once tampered with His Highness's property, so I paid more attention to it.

Recently, his delirious talking seems to have flared up again, with him constantly muttering things like "Patrick Star" and "catching jellyfish."

As Your Highness knows, my Nine-Tailed Fox Clan has always been adept at treating such mental illnesses, so I kindly took a look at him.

It turned out that he seemed to have been affected by some kind of backlash, although I didn't know who did it...

But the enemy of my enemy is my friend, so I went along with it and added some fun to the aftermath.

Now, Yiyu can smoothly praise His Highness's extraordinary nobility, and she thinks that in a while, she can let His Highness appreciate it.

However, because of his delirious episodes, he handed over most of his work to me. Although it was tiring, I was willing to work hard for His Highness...

And this actually made some of my plans easier.

Of course, these are not things Your Highness needs to worry about.

Your Highness, rest assured, the Church of the Ancient Gods will only be the most insignificant yet exceptionally useful blade among all your powers.

I miss you dearly, having not seen you for so long.

The situation is not yet settled, and I am deeply worried.

It's cold now, so I hope Your Highness will wear more clothes.

I have prepared a small gift and asked Young Master Shen to deliver it to Your Highness... I hope Your Highness will be pleased.

Daji's Book.

Lu: Reading comprehension was my worst subject in high school. Yu: It was like my vision went completely black... I just couldn't understand it at all!

I'm speechless!

Dad, what exactly are your plans?

Tell me so I can mentally prepare myself!
