Godslayer: My Girlfriend Red Tassel

"Listen carefully, the other side has probably become suspicious... no, they've already figured out our identities!"

Zhao Kongcheng gathered everyone around him, and while taking a few steps, he spoke quickly in a low voice:

"This place is only so big, and outsiders are too conspicuous, especially since we're making such a show of it; we can't hide at all. So from now on, everyone is on high alert. If anything goes wrong, take action immediately, understand?!"

"Understood!" the boys nodded in unison.

"Who has any more questions?"

“I have it,” said Lu Baoyou, the troublemaker, raising her hand.

"explain."

Lu Baoyou hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Uncle Zhao, how are we supposed to fight in just our underwear? Even if we can fight with our fists, what about our clothes... I'm afraid that if I charge forward, my underwear will be left behind, and I'll be running around naked."

"...Good question, you're a fucking genius."

Zhao Kongcheng praised him highly, then remained silent for more than ten seconds. He looked down at himself and suddenly felt a soreness in his teeth.

I have to admit, Lu Baoyou is right.

To show off their muscles and perform the dance well, everyone was almost half-naked, and all their personal equipment was handed over to the Phoenix team. Now, let alone knives, you can't even find a single needle in their clothes.

If a real fight breaks out, I really won't be able to make a move.

He hesitated for a moment, then changed his approach:

"Since that's the case, let's not fight head-on and instead use a distraction tactic... Captain Xia should be in the city looking for the [Sword] right now. We can't help her with our combat strength, but we must not hold her back."

He glanced around and lowered his voice to make the arrangements:

"Listen carefully. Su Yan said that the other party is not our mortal enemy and shouldn't kill us without reason. So, no matter what they want to do to us, we should always keep smiling. You can't hit someone who's smiling. As long as we keep their attention on us, that's the biggest help we can give Captain Xia. Do you understand?"

"understood."

The boys scratched their heads, thinking to themselves that Uncle Zhao's decision-making had become really hasty, changing it twice in a minute. Was it really reliable?

Zhao Kongcheng nodded in satisfaction:

"Alright, from now on, put away your sour faces and smile! It's just being touched a few times, it's not like you'll lose much flesh. Follow me!"

Having said that, he took the lead, head held high, and cleared the way.

The seven boys quickly followed.

"Wow—"

His confident demeanor immediately drew cheers from those around him.

Before long, after crossing the wide street, the eight people, amidst cheers, gradually ventured deeper into the heart of the sandcastle. A red carpet appeared in their sight, leading to a white palace.

Festive lanterns gradually began to appear on both sides of the street.

The pedestrians following them had also changed almost entirely.

Dressed in brightly colored clothes, they kept clasping their hands together, smiling and nodding slightly to the eight people. Someone dipped a willow branch in water and flicked it at them from afar to ward off bad luck and offer sincere blessings.

Zhao Kongcheng smiled and returned the greeting in the same manner, but inwardly he felt increasingly uneasy.

"Why does it feel so grand..."

He never expected that receiving the invitation would cause such a sensation. Looking at the dense crowd around him, it seemed as if the entire city had come out to see them.

And it is quite obvious that,

The red carpet led to the palace, where the most distinguished person in the area undoubtedly lived—most likely the female leader.

"It's just 300 kilograms of wine, is it really worth making such a big fuss about?"

Zhao Kongcheng frowned, somewhat puzzled, but then he thought about it again and realized that it was no ordinary wine, but a sacred wine that these people regarded as holy, so he could barely understand it.

"Faith is sometimes just that irrational."

He shook his head, clearing his mind, and forced a smile back onto his face.

Just as the group was about to reach the end of the red carpet, the female guards who had been mingling in the crowd suddenly quickened their pace. They swiftly passed Zhao Kongcheng and his group of eight, forming a line in front of them, exactly eight in number, which blocked their path.

In an instant, the surrounding noise stopped abruptly, so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

"Don't panic, keep your composure, and don't show any hostility," Zhao Kongcheng quickly whispered, then led the boys and walked calmly to the eight women.

"Ladies..." he began in a deep voice, attempting to negotiate.

"boom--"

As soon as he finished speaking, the eight women simultaneously took a step forward! Their eight auras instantly coalesced into one, forming an invisible, thick wall of energy that crashed head-on into Zhao Kongcheng.

Caught off guard, Zhao Kongcheng was forced to stagger backward by the solid aura.

The wall of air did not stop; it continued to advance slowly and steadily, yet with an irresistible sense of oppression, forcing him and the youths behind him step by step away from the hall.

"Goodness, I knew it wasn't that simple. So this was what they were waiting for us."

Seeing this, Zhao Kongcheng not only didn't panic, but actually breathed a sigh of relief.

Sure enough, if you want to be a hero and meet the leader, three hundred kilograms of divine wine is not enough—you also need to show some real muscle.

hehe......

He's an absolute master at showing off his muscles.

I am Zhao Kongcheng, the muscle king!

"No one is allowed to back down!" he suddenly roared. "They mean no harm; this is just a test. Listen to me, use only your physical strength and follow me!"

Before he finished speaking, the muscles in his shoulders and arms suddenly bulged, veins popped out, his teeth clenched, and he slammed into the invisible mental wall in front of him like a bull.

Bang!

A muffled thud erupted from the void. The invisible wall froze for a moment, then began to tremble violently.

“Go ahead——!”

The boys were greatly encouraged, their blood boiling, and they flexed their muscles, roaring as they charged forward one after another.

Bang!Bang!Bang!Bang!

A series of impacts rang out. The mental wall, initially motionless, began to shift slightly backward, then was pushed back—its speed increasing rapidly. Finally, with a chorus of shouts from the boys, the wall of energy rebounded violently, slamming solidly into the eight women.

Ping——

A crisp sound, like glass shattering, rang out in the air, and the invisible barrier vanished completely.

Huff... huff... huff...

Only the boys' heavy, hot breaths echoed in the suddenly quiet air.

The two remained locked in a silent, tense standoff for a moment.

Suddenly, the eight women smiled and bowed slightly. Then they each stepped forward, each choosing a young man, and quietly stood beside them with their hands elegantly folded in front of them, signaling them to continue.

"We... passed the test?" Lu Baoyou was overjoyed.

"Uncle Zhao, we succeeded! Seeing the leader this way has bought Captain Xia some time!" Fang Mo said excitedly.

"Uncle Zhao is amazing!"

"Hahaha~~ You flatter me."

It worked!

Who says I, Old Zhao, am brave but lack strategy? If Su Yan dares to call me vulgar again, I'll beat him to a pulp... Zhao Kongcheng laughed heartily as he followed the woman toward the Sand Palace.

Just then, his eyes glanced casually, and he suddenly froze.

Among the crowd on the side,

Si Xiaonan and Tian Ling were dressed in brightly colored clothes, each holding a bowl of chilled milkshake. They looked up at them, dumbfounded, their eyes filled with disbelief.

Zhao Kongcheng was taken aback:

"Xiao...Xiao Nan, Tian Ling? How did you two get in here!"

Old Zhao was a little flustered. He didn't know if he would be caught by the guards if he sneaked in without a pass!

"Old Zhao, forget about that for now... I just want to know one thing..."

Si Xiaonan pursed her lips, bewildered:

Does your sister-in-law know about your remarriage?

Zhao Kongcheng: ???

Tian Ling's gaze swept over the stunned teenagers, she clicked her tongue twice, and shook her head:

"It's even group marriage, marrying eight people at once, amazing!"
