Godslayer: Aizen Template, I will stand in the heavens!

Li Lian originally intended to take Chen Muye directly to An Qingyu's base, but after the two discussed it...

An Qingyu decided it was best not to expose her base, so the location for the lunch gathering was...

It's still Li Lian's rented room!

As for why they had to go through the sewers, Li Lian explained to Chen Muye that...

No traffic jams when you walk through the sewers!

Chen Muye: ~%?…； *'☆&c$︿★?

Cangnan is a third-tier city, and it's midday, not rush hour, so it would be a miracle if there were any traffic jams!

However, after Li Lian's commotion, Chen Muye's sadness was lessened considerably.

At least at this point, Chen Muye felt that Li Lian's death wasn't such a difficult thing to accept!

The two arrived at Li Lian's small rented room, and Chen Muyi was filled with emotion.

Because he had been paying for the house all along, and had signed a one-year rental contract with the landlord,

But Li Lian only stayed for less than a month before going to basic training camp, leaving us with a huge loss.

I also have to come here every few days to help him clean!

Li Lian, however, didn't feel that way. He carried a large bag of groceries into the kitchen.

"Captain, please make yourself at home. I'll go and prepare the food."

Do you think I don't know if this is my own home?

The problem is that there isn't even a chair in this room besides a bed. Where am I supposed to sit?

Bang bang bang!

Just as Chen Muyi was debating whether or not to sit on Li Lian's bed, someone knocked on Li Lian's door.

"Captain, the person should be here. You can go open the door. I'm too busy to handle this."

Li Lian's voice came from the kitchen, along with the sound of washing vegetables; he sounded very busy.

Chen Muyi took two steps to the door, opened it,

The person standing in front of him looked very familiar in terms of figure and clothes.

It's that man in black who was roaming around Cangnan City last night!

Because his speed was similar to Li Lian's, everyone mistook him for the man in black!

Looking at his face again, Chen Muyi felt that he recognized him; the face looked so familiar!

"Captain! What are you looking at? Don't you recognize me?"

"You are... Zhao Kongcheng?!"

Chen Muyi stared wide-eyed, speechless. He simply couldn't believe it.

A person who had been dead for a year suddenly appeared alive and well in front of him.

He personally prepared Zhao Kongcheng's body and witnessed his burial!

Does science no longer exist?!

"How does my face look now? Now you know I, Old Zhao, wasn't bragging!"

When I was young, I was truly a handsome young man known for miles around!

Zhao Kongcheng chuckled. He had only agreed to Li Lian's terms to see how his former colleagues would react.

To enhance the effect, they even had Li Lian make their face look twenty years younger while he was sculpting their features.

The effect has been achieved; this face has shocked Chen Muyi so much that he can't even close his mouth!

Chen Muye grabbed Zhao Kongcheng's hand, feeling the warmth of Old Zhao's hand.

Only then did we realize that Old Zhao had truly come back to life!

The two of them just stared at each other, their eyes glistening with tears.

"Alright, aren't you two embarrassing standing at the door? Come in and we'll talk!"

"By the way, Lao Zhao, where's Qingyu?"

Li Lian sensed that the atmosphere between the two was a bit off; they seemed speechless, as if only tears were streaming down their faces.

If they continue gazing at each other so affectionately, they'll either start fighting or kissing!

If you didn't know better, you'd think they were a long-lost couple reunited!

Li Lian got goosebumps just watching it!

"Oh, that kid said he hasn't finished what he's doing yet, so he won't be coming for dinner today."

Zhao Kongcheng walked into the house and closed the door with his heel.

But their hands remained clasped together, refusing to let go.

"You two, let go of each other right now! This is the time for a warm hug!"

If all else fails, give me a couple of kisses to ease the pain of longing!

Li Lian covered his eyes with his hand as he spoke, indicating that he couldn't bear to watch.

These two are truly an eyesore! They're spicier than the chili peppers he just chopped!

Zhao Kongcheng and Chen Muye then let go of each other's hands, both of them blushing slightly.

Not daring to look at the other person again, she turned her head to look at the somewhat cramped little house.

What a lousy place! There's not even a place to sit!

All that was was that small wooden bed!

If the two of them sit on the bed, things will become even more complicated!

"You brat, hurry up and get all the tables, chairs, and benches out here! There's nowhere to sit!"

As the former warehouse manager, Zhao Kongcheng knew everything about Soul Society.

After a chaotic scene, the three of them finally sat down together.

"So, this brat took your soul after you died?"

Did I take you out for a stroll during the Chinese New Year?

While adding mutton to the hot pot, Chen Muye asked Lao Zhao and Li Lian questions.

"Yes, for a whole year, I was in his little world."

I hired him as a warehouse manager, and I have no idea where he got all that stuff from.

It's got everything from everyday items to firearms and ammunition!

Old Zhao held a cigarette in his left hand and a bottle of beer in his right, gulping it down.

Since gaining a body, Lao Zhao's appetite has increased significantly, after all, he hadn't eaten for a year!

Chen Muye looked at Li Lian with a hostile expression.

Sure enough, the warehouse was emptied last time, it was that brat Li Lian who did it!

"So how did you come back to life?"

"I don't know the specific reason; it was all arranged by that kid Li Lian."

Zhao Kongcheng put down the wine bottle and pointed at Li Lian.

They claimed they were innocent and knew nothing!

Li Lian was chewing on a fish ball when he noticed Chen Muye staring intently at him.

He quickly swallowed the fish ball, then slurped it down with beer, and continued, picking up where Old Zhao left off:

"That's right, Captain. Since I've already let you see Lao Zhao, I won't hide it from you anymore."

Although I, Li Lian, am a person who holds grudges, I will also repay a debt of gratitude for a single meal!

Captain, you've taught me a lot; you're practically my mentor.

Therefore, I've decided to give you a choice!

Li Lian summoned Ryujin Jakka and slammed it on the table with a "bang".

"Captain, if you'd like, you can do the same as Old Zhao."

You can live a second life! It's just that, like Old Zhao, you have to wait a while.

"So, what's the price?"

Chen Muyi was a veteran of the Night Watch, and he knew about methods that could reverse death and bring the dead back to life.

The price paid cannot be summed up in a single sentence.

"Hmm... the price is that I have to be a warehouse manager for a while first."

"And if I can be resurrected, there are some things I'll have to do! Just like Old Zhao."

Chen Muyi then realized that for Li Lian, death was not a particularly big deal.

This kid doesn't care at all about dying after the miracle ends!

He said he could resurrect Old Zhao, and now he's saying he can resurrect himself too.

This kid can't revive himself?

Who would believe that if I told them!
