I Really Am Not The Lord of Demon Chapter 133 - That Wouldn't be Necessary

Chapter 133: That Wouldn’t be Necessary

Chu Weiwei got off the car and looked at the streets and alleys in front of her curiously.

The small streets and alleys were not very lively.

The crowd flow was not busy, but it was very clean.

There was not even a single leaf on the street. There were even traces of water being sprinkled on the road.

“The munic.i.p.al administration of Jiangcheng City is so developed?” She was puzzled.

The sanitation work of the main roads of capital was not even better than that.

Besides, there seemed to be a lot of security posts in this area.

There was one at the end of the street, and there seemed to be one at the end of the alley.

Moreover, there were people on duty.

“Young Master Ling, how’s the security in your neighborhood?” Chu Weiwei could not help but ask the young man, who was busy dragging their luggage into the house.

“It’s pretty good!” The young man replied casually. “In Jiangcheng City, everyone can go out at any time without worries!”

“I don’t mean to brag, but the security in Jiangcheng City can be ranked in the top ten even in the mainland!”

Chu Weiwei nodded as she listened.

At this moment, the captain also got down from the car. She held the kitten in her arms and held Chu Weiwei’s hand as she walked forward. “Weiwei, let’s go in first. I’ll leave this place to this brat to deal with!”

Ling Pingan immediately protested when he heard that. “Aunty! Have some humanity! How long can I carry so many things by myself?”

There were two large suitcases in front of him as well as seventeen or eighteen bags of various sizes.

G.o.d knows if Li Anan went to Beihou for archeology or shopping.

“Who cares about you?” Li Anan stuck out her tongue mischievously and dragged Chu Weiwei along with her.

“Captain, isn’t that not very nice?” Chu Weiwei whispered. As a guest, she didn’t feel very comfortable.

“It’s okay!” Lee Anan smiled and said, “It’s a good opportunity for him to train… otherwise, he’ll stay in the shop all year round and won’t go out at all. He’ll rust!”

As they spoke, both of them arrived at the door of a locked shop. Lee Anan skillfully took out a key and opened the locked gla.s.s door. Then, she pulled up the shutter door.

A small but exquisite bookstore entered Chu Weiwei’s sight.

The bookstore had a very old-fas.h.i.+oned layout. There was a cash register at the entrance, and on the other end of the cash register was the sofas for the customers. A small coffee table was placed in the middle, and the sofas were on both sides.

The floor was made of wood. It looked a little old, but it was very clean and tidy.

Chu Weiwei didn’t even see any traces of dust.

And at the very front were rows of neatly arranged bookshelves. Labels were stuck on the bookshelves.

The walls on both sides were pasted with wallpaper.

They were anime characters or game characters.

And on one side of the bookshelves, there was a staircase that went all the way up to the second floor.

“This is my nephew’s bookstore!” Lee Anan asked Chu Weiwei proudly, “How is it?”

“It’s quite exquisite…” Chu Weiwei looked at everything in front of her. “It’s also quite unique!”

That was the truth!

The bookstore in front of her looked simple, but Chu Weiwei could feel that every item seemed to show a different aura, making her feel very comfortable.

“Hehe!” Lee Anan laughed proudly.

At this moment, the phone in her bag rang.

Li Anan picked it up.

“h.e.l.lo… It’s Li Anan…”

“What?!” She stood up. “Coming right away?”

“Okay… okay…”

Putting down the phone, Li Anan looked at Chu Weiwei with a strange expression and whispered, “The Commander in Chief will be here soon…”

Chu Weiwei was also shocked. “So soon?!”

At this moment, Ling Pingan walked in with the luggage.

“What’s wrong, Aunty?” Ling Pingan looked at his fearless aunt being nervous and was immediately curious.

“My leader is coming!” Li Anan put on a bitter face as she sighed.

“So be it!” Ling Pingan smiled. “It’s just a pair of chopsticks!”

“That’s easy for you to say!” Li Anan said with a bitter face. She could only keep her concerns to herself.

That was the Commander in Chief!

The Commander in Chief of the Federal Empire’s Blackguards, the Imperial Family’s special advisor, one of the a.s.sisting ministers, and the only living marshal!

He was also the greatest human on this planet!

How could he visit just like that…

Li Anan thought that he was just joking!

“It’s fine!” Ling Pingan looked at his aunt’s expression and patted his chest to a.s.sure her. “Leave everything to me!”

Ever since she was young, this aunt of his had always been a person who would make a fuss out of nothing.

She could be frightened by c.o.c.kroaches and mice to the point that she did not dare to sleep.

Therefore, it would be strange if she did not panic when a leader suddenly came knocking on her door!

Ling Pingan was different!

He had been very independent since he was young. Although he was very lazy when it came to doing things, and only muddled along.

However, he had already developed the ability to speak according to who he meets.

After writing novels for a few more years, he was able to find topics to talk about with anyone.

He was an author of web novels.

He had to know a little about military affairs, history, and science.

If he didn’t know, he wouldn’t be able to make a living!

“Can you… do it?” Li Anan didn’t quite believe it.

“Why not!” Ling Pingan was full of confidence.

Meow!

The kitten, Bastet, who was in Li Anan’s arms, also purred, as if it wanted to prove that its owner could do it.

“Then…” Li Anan said solemnly, “I’ll leave it all to you!”

At this point, he could only trust her nephew.

“Leave it to me!” Ling Pingan patted his chest.

… … ..

Li Shouyi sat in the car and looked at the bookstore in front of him through the window.

He had seen this bookstore countless times in the reports and videos.

The bookstore in the fog.

That was the name of its initial report.

An unknown G.o.d of the bookstore?

That was the initial code name of its owner.

Then, as the understanding deepened, the entire Blackguards’ upper echelons learned of the existence of this bookstore and the ident.i.ty of the owner of this bookstore.

The ordinary takeout lunch boxes and meals would become unimaginable psionic energy substances after staying in this bookstore for a few days.

These substances even provided a new turn for the psionic research of the federal empire.

The cheap casual clothes from auctions worn by the owner of the bookstore for a few days would turn into top-grade protective gear that was comparable to cla.s.s A magical clothing!

Every book sold in his store had knowledge that surpa.s.sed the limits of human imagination.

In order to buy them, Zhang Hui even sold his soul to him.

However, he had also recovered from his injuries and regained his fighting strength. He even had the chance to become a general!

The aftermath of a few words almost caused the entire staff of the army base in Jiangcheng city to be deformed.

The death of the werewolf duke and the subsequent events made the bookstore and its owner covered in a fearful and frightening veil.

The night before yesterday, he had personally delivered the will that could not be refused.

But everything about him was still a mystery.

Who was he?

When did he wake up?

Why did he have such a high status when he woke up?

What did he want?

What was his ultimate goal?

No one knew!

Now, Li Shouyi only knew one piece of information that might be related to him.

Two hundred years ago, the ancestors of the Ling family might have already known that he would descend.

And it was very likely that the disaster of the Ling family back then was a sacrifice made for him to descend into the mortal world.

Just like the sacrifices in ancient times.

Offering himself to the G.o.ds, using his flesh and blood and soul to open a pa.s.sage for the G.o.ds to descend into the mortal world.

“Impossible!” Li Shouyi shook his head and denied the speculation that was the most popular guess among the Blackguards at the moment.

That was because the Ling family was the wors.h.i.+pers of the G.o.d of Infant.

And the G.o.d of Infant was the infant protection G.o.d that was wors.h.i.+pped in the ancient Jingchu region.

She was a female, and it was the image of a young girl.

The elder brother of the G.o.d of Infant was even more impossible!

The other G.o.ds of the nine songs’ G.o.d system also had no existence that matched the characteristics and status that he displayed now.

Moreover, the story that was told on the card left by Ling An back then had another meaning!

In the past few days, Li Shouyi had read the entire Zhuang Zi’s literature several times.

He had read Emperor Ying’s article dozens of times and consulted many famous scholars.

Unfortunately, he still got nothing.

“In the end, I still had to face him!” Li Shouyi thought, “Maybe I can get more information!”

Therefore, he pushed open the door of the car, picked up a briefcase beside him, and put on the reading gla.s.ses that he had not worn for a long time.

Like a normal 70-year-old man, he walked towards the bookstore in front.

He walked to the bookstore’s entrance and looked inside through the gla.s.s door.

Everything was very quiet.

The gla.s.s door was very quiet, the counter was very quiet, and the sofa was also very quiet.

As for the Abyss that Situ He and Zhang Hui spoke of, he didn’t even see a shadow.

Only rows of bookshelves stood neatly in the bookstore.

Li Shouyi gently knocked on the door.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

Soon, a sound came from upstairs.

A young man wearing gla.s.ses and a chef’s uniform walked down the stairs.

He looked at Li Shouyi at the door with a faint smile on his face. “Please come in…”

“If I’ve not mistaken, you must be Li Anan’s leader?”

Li Shouyi nodded. The young man walked towards the door and opened it. “Sir, please come in!”

“Our house is small…” he invited Li Shouyi in and said with a smile, “Please don’t feel offended, sir!”

“It’s perfect!” Li Shouyi answered with a smile.

The moment Li Shouyi stepped into the bookstore, he felt waves of will peeping at him from all directions.

However, they seemed to have some fear and didn’t dare to look at him directly.

They could only secretly, quietly, pa.s.s on some attention.

However, it was this kind of attention that made Li Shouyi’s palms were drenched with sweat.

“So…” Li Shouyi thought to himself, “Just like the profile written by the Blackguards…”

“He restrained himself in front of his family and restrained the monsters in this bookstore?”

“And…” Li Shouyi felt the taste of those wills.

He could feel that those monsters were afraid.

What were they afraid of?

Obviously, it wasn’t him!

Because Li Shouyi could sense that many among those monsters were stronger than him.

Those who were several times, dozens of times, or even unimaginable times mightier than him.

Therefore, they were not afraid of him.

He was afraid of the person in front of him.

The seemingly easy-going and ordinary bookstore owner.

Was able to make these monsters fear him to this extent.

It was likely that the bookstore owner did not only have a great status that was above them.

He had even brutally killed some monsters many times before, and in a way that was cruel and b.l.o.o.d.y even for these monsters. That he was able to make them submit to him.

With only that could the crazy, strange, and terrifying monsters that Li Shouyi sensed act like that.

He felt that some monsters were trembling.

He also felt that some monsters were lying on the ground somewhere, completely curled up and holding their breath.

He didn’t dare to move!

“So…” Li Shouyi thought, “The profile written by the Blackguard was right again!”

“He is a cruel and ruthless ruler!”

“Just like the ancient emperors, he is temperamental…”

“These monsters, if they make a mistake, they will be torn to pieces immediately by him…”

“No…”

“It should be in a cruel way that humans cannot imagine…”

The stronger he was, the clearer Li Shouyi was about the lack of imagination of creatures like humans.

The so-called cruelty, bloodiness, and brutality of humans were the same as when adults punish their naughty children in the eyes of the G.o.ds and monsters.

They were just simple punishments and small warnings.

The cruelty they understood, the bloodiness and brutality they understood, were never on the same line as humans.

So…

What did the owner of the bookstore do to these monsters?

Li Shouyi didn’t know, but he knew that it must be terrifying torture that terrified the G.o.ds and monsters!

“Sir, please walk slowly…” While he was thinking of that, the owner of the bookstore suddenly turned around and said, “The floor is a bit slippery…”

Li Shouyi listened and frowned slightly.

“The floor is a bit slippery…”

“Is he warning me not to talk as I wish?” He thought.

That was the only possible explanation.

“Thank you!” Li Shouyi replied with a smile. “I’ll be careful!”

As he said this, he happened to follow the owner of the bookstore and walk past a row of bookshelves.

Li Shouyi wore his reading gla.s.ses and glanced at the books on the bookshelves beside him. They were all very new books, but if he looked carefully, Li Shouyi could feel that these seemingly ordinary books were emitting distorted psionic energy.

“You have quite a lot of books here!” Li Shouyi asked tentatively.

“Just so-so…” the owner of the bookstore grinned, and the corners of his eyes narrowed.

“Sir…”

“You have to watch your steps when you walk up the stairs…” he said very seriously, “My stairs are a little old…”

Li Shouyi was stunned. “Another warning?”

He nodded. “I’ll pay attention to it!”

The young man reached out and held Li Shouyi steadily. “Let me help you up!”

The moment Li Shouyi’s hand touched his body, he felt that all the psionic energy in his body seemed to be restrained.

However, if he were to carefully sense it, it was not. He could still control himself.

However…

The power of the owner of the bookstore was simply too great.

It was so great that Li Shouyi’s psionic energy was immediately filled with awe, fear, and restrained just by coming into contact with it.

It was like a little rabbit in the forest that had suddenly encountered a fierce tiger.

It was so scared that it did not even have the strength to run. It could only wait for its death at where it stood.

“That’s very kind of you !” Li Shouyi could only say sincerely.

In fact, what he wanted to tell the young man was: I will abide by your rules here. I won’t talk as I wish. You can rest a.s.sured!

That wouldn’t be necessery! There was no need for him to act like that!

But he didn’t dare to say that.
