Become A Protagonist 2's
Chapters. 09 - Killer II
”Hei! Yin Zhen's! Since when did you know that I was the Incarnation of the Black Devil? Didn't you say you were blind from birth?” xiao Qing Xuan asked as he rode on a donkey that Yin Zhen had given him.
Yin Zhen looked stunned and he turned his attention for a while. ”... Because I feel it. I can feel the existence of dark magic flowing within you. Besides, I could hear the frightening sounds that were there. It was so noisy it even scared me. Therefore, I went straight to you and made sure that what I felt was true happened.”
”J~ so that's what you can hear what I said in my mind?” asked Xiao Qing Xuan who looked surprised after hearing that.
Yin Zhen took out an apple from behind his clothes and gave it to Xiao Qing Xuan. ”... I remember you haven't eaten since morning. Eat!”
Xiao Qing Xuan looked at him in surprise. He received the apple even though he seemed hesitant to take it. ”May I ask you one thing? Actually, what's your purpose in following me away?” xiao Qing Xuan asked who managed to make Yin Zhen's expression appear extremely shocked. ”... Uh! Did I say the wrong thing?” Xiao Qing Xuan looked awkward after Yin Zhen showed his expression.
Yin Zhen drew a smile and replied, ”My aim, just to protect myself.”
Xiao Qing Xuan was stunned to hear that and she asked again, ”Are you afraid that I will kill you if we don't know each other?”
”Not!” chirping Yin Zhen. ”... Actually, I always lost control on my own. It all happened after I lost my sister. The old man who lived in the temple of the goldfish god said that I should go to meet someone who had left an empty seat in my mind. And by chance, I found someone who looked like him. That person, is you, young master. Although I don't know how dangerous it would be if I continued to be next to the Black Devil Incarnation, as long as there was no empty seat in my mind, I'm sure I'm fine
Xiao Qing Xuan looked surprised after hearing that. He fell silent and distracted her. He probably believed in Yin Zhen's words because not too long ago, Yin Zhen had shown a little bit of his strength. He could destroy a body using only a very simple spell. Even he did not seem to be exhausted after doing all that.
Yin Zhen seemed to be very sad when he went back to tell her that. He felt that he had disturbed his tension and made him recall his past. He patted Yin Zhen on the shoulder and said, ”The brothers should protect each other, right? Therefore, from now on you can think of me as your sister. At the very least, it can reduce the pain in your soul.” Xiao Qing Xuan said as she drew her wide smile.
Yin Zhen was stunned and he patted back Xiao Qing Xuan's hand that touched her shoulder. ”... You're very kind. People will definitely not expect that you can be this friendly.”
”Don't praise me, please.” Inner Xiao Qing Xuan who started to overdo it while thinking about it.
After the two of them spoke to each other, Yin Zhen's hand stopped a dagger that had previously shot towards Xiao Qing Xuan's head. Fortunately, the attack was successfully seen by him so that they did not suffer any injuries at all.
”You okay?” xiao Qing Xuan asked after he saw Yin Zhen who instantly stopped the opponent's attack.
Yin Zhen pointed the dagger at him and said, ”It seems, we have the enemy coming. They were a group of thieves that numbered ten people. The weapons they used were quite large yet, having no spiritual energy at all."
”Young man, hand over all your possessions and we will let you go.” said a man who looked very messy, walking up to the two with a group of young men carrying axes and spears.

In the middle of the river downstream, Liu Zhang Chen stopped there just to wash his face. Currently he was always bothered with Zhi Shuang's still childish behavior. In any case, he should avoid a fierce fight.
”After all this is temporary. He will return to his original state if his strength has been accumulated.” Liu Zhang Chen murmured while reflecting on the calm surface of the river.
His expression turned startled after he sensed the existence of an enormous force, residing within the forest, where he let Zhi Shuang roam in it. He stood up and faced backwards. ”... Eve power belongs to the evil god! Is she currently together with Zhi Shuang?” inner Liu Zhang Chen who immediately ran into the forest.
Moments after he continued searching, a place in the middle of the expanse of grass, he saw a golden-haired woman, carrying a sleeping Zhi Shuang in her arms. Liu Zhang Chen did not feel the killing intent around him. He walked up to her and said, ”Give me the boy back.”
The woman looked surprised and immediately stared at Liu Zhang Chen. From his face, Liu Zhang Chen immediately remembered that this woman was one of the three deceptive Gods named, Jinyu Xiaojie who was able to transform himself into a male and female.
”Oh? Zhang Chen's? Is this your son? Well, you're so irresponsible for letting this kid roam the woods. What if he's eaten by a magical animal?” said Jinyu Xiaojie who looked at him with a mocking smile.
Liu Zhang Chen looked puzzled and replied, ”He is not my son and I am also not married.”
”I made it like this so, I should be responsible for him.” Liu Zhang Chen replied which made Jinyu Xiaojie even more confused.
Zhi Shuang woke up and immediately looked towards Jinyu Xiaojie who was carrying him. After that, he looked towards Liu Zhang Chen and called out to him, ”Dad! You're back.”
”....”
”Haah,... Again he made confusing words.” Inner Liu Zhang Chen who looked guilty for having a hard time explaining.
BUGH!!!
”Br*ngs*k men! Smell onions! Go to hell!” yelled Jinyu Xiaojie who instantly slapped Liu Zhang Chen in the face after he suspected that Liu Zhang Chen had been in a relationship that made him have an illegitimate child.
Liu Zhang Chen was speechless as he held onto his flushed-looking cheeks. ”Do not origin decide. I've never made a child. Besides, I told you that he is not my son.” Liu Zhang Chen said. ”... He was one of the seven Earth Emperor incarnations that had already controlled dark magic. I made it shrink so I could kill the evil spirit that was controlling it.”
”Oh.” Jinyu Xiaojie instantly fell silent and looked at him in surprise.
”At least apologize for slapping me.” Inner Liu Zhang Chen while holding Zhi Shuang's hand. ”... I need to talk to your man. Can you exchange for a while?”
”Hah? Why should he? Anyway, I'm already here. A beautiful woman like me will never tell a lie.” said Jinyu Xiaojie in a tone like proud of her.
”If you never tell a lie, why have you been named one of the three Deities of deceit?” ask Liu Zhang Chen.
”Do not carelessly talk!” ketus Jinyu Xiaojie's.
”Then show your man form. I need to talk to him.” Liu Zhang Chen said once again.
”No! I won't show it! He is currently sleeping and cannot be awakened until tomorrow morning—
Jinyu Xiaojie's form turned into a man when she had not yet finished her sentence. ”Cih! What a bitch!” ketus Jinyu Xiaojie who had turned into a man completely.
Jinyu Xiaojie stared at Liu Zhang Chen with a astonished look and asked, ”So,... Where have you been all this time? Looks like you're ready to be beheaded.”
”If you want my head, then until I finish paying for my actions.” Liu Zhang Chen replied. ”... By the way, I want you to call someone to come here.”
Jinyu Xiaojie was stunned and asked back, ”Huh? Who do you have right now? I thought you became lonely after killing a lot of people.”
”I told you we'd talk about it later. It's a very emergency. Right now, there was someone who had been resurrected with an enormous hatred energy. That person is very dangerous if left alone.” Liu Zhang Chen replied.
”Then, who do you want to call?”
Liu Zhang Chen looked seriously at him and replied, ”Bring Xiao Qing Xuan over. Right now, he must be in danger.”
Simultaneously, a pool of blood and pieces of flesh spread all over the place and made a so piercing smell of carnation. Right now, Xiao Qing Xuan was like numbness after seeing Yin Zhen kill the entire thief who was trying to kill them.
”Young master need not fear. Isn't a sight like this, it's common for young master?” yin Zhen asked while showing a grin.
