How come I was born a deity?

Chapter 60: The Only Chance

"Wait a minute..." Finally, at this seemingly perfect moment, someone raised their objection.

Chen Ruopan stood up from her chair, glanced at Chen Qi and Hu Yao, then at Sun Qinian and Sun Xiangwan, and asked a question with a serious expression.

"Am I dreaming? Or is this some kind of prank show?"

Chen Qi first glanced at Sun Qinian and asked, "What do senior cultivators usually do when they encounter this situation?"

Sun Qinian sighed, "In the old days, the most common method was to kill someone to cover it up, but now that there is official control, that method is definitely no longer effective."

Upon hearing this, Chen Ruopan immediately felt as if she were facing a formidable enemy, as if this meant she was to be killed.

"I don't think that's a good idea," Chen Qi decisively rejected the method. "Is there any other way?"

Sun Qinian replied, "We can threaten him first to prevent him from telling anyone. After all, we are cultivators. If we show some power far beyond that of ordinary people, we can scare a lot of people."

"Then we usually notify the local person in charge and let them handle it. Generally, the person in charge will notify the authorities, and then the authorities will decide how to resolve it."

In other words, should we tell Wang Shande?

“There is another way,” Sun Qinian replied. “The simplest way is to make her forget everything. But this is the most difficult way because currently only the Qin family has mastered the forgetting technique. And if we want them to do it, the price they charge is very high. The bookstore probably can’t afford that price right now.”

Forgotten Techniques?

Chen Qi's eyes lit up. "That's right, there's this trick too!"

Turning around, Chen Qi looked at Chen Ruopan and said, "Cousin."

Chen Ruopan covered her chest with her hands, "What are you going to do! You're not trying to erase my memory and then take this opportunity to do something unspeakable to me, are you?!"

"You're overthinking it," Chen Qi rolled his eyes. "There are so many people watching here."

Chen Ruopan's eyes widened. "So, you'd do it if no one was watching?!"

Chen Qi: "...I don't want to talk to you."

After saying that, he mobilized the spiritual energy in his body, the star left his body, and used the forgetting technique that he had stolen from the Qin family's office.

"Chen Qi," Chen Ruopan suddenly asked, "you're still the Chen Qi I know, right?"

Chen Qi was surprised that she would ask such an insightful question, and said softly, "Don't worry."

After saying that, Chen Ruopan slowly closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Sun Qinian was utterly stunned by what he saw.

This is……

Forgotten Techniques!

Sun Qinian had seen people from the Qin family's agency use the Forgetting Technique before, and he was quite certain that this was the same move!

But how could Chen Qi know this trick?

Isn't the Forgetting Technique the very ability that the Qin Family Agency relies on for its survival? How could it possibly be passed on to someone else?

What is this kid's relationship with the Qin family's firm?

"Young Master Chen...," Sun Qinian asked in a trembling voice as Chen Qi carefully put Chen Ruopan down, "What... what is your relationship with Granny Qin from the Qin Family Firm?"

"Why are you asking this?" Chen Qi frowned slightly. "Do I really have to go around telling everyone about my relationship with my godmother?"

Dry……

Grandma?

Sun Qinian almost fainted this time. Shangqing Palace, Chen Fuzhou, Qin's Office, how come this kid always manages to pull some tricks on him?

The Shangqing Palace is not to be trifled with, Chen Fuzhou is someone you dare not offend, and the Qin Family Firm is someone you can't afford to mess with.

Is there some other surprise behind this brat?

"Alright," Chen Qi said, after settling Chen Ruopan in. He then looked at Sun Qinian and Sun Xiangwan. "You two are all settled now. Please go back. I will explain the rest to Senior Wang."

Coming to his senses, Sun Qinian really didn't want to stay in front of Chen Qi any longer. He then subconsciously bowed to the junior and said, "Alright, then we'll take our leave first. We wish Young Master Chen all the best."

After saying that, Sun Qinian dragged the still somewhat indignant Sun Xiangwan out of the study room.

Just a second before leaving the study room, Sun Xiangwan glared at Chen Qi and said, "You just wait and see about the newcomer evaluation!"

Chen Qi didn't want to talk to her and waved his hand.

Only after being pulled out of the library did Sun Qinian release her hand. Sun Xiangwan then crossed her arms and said angrily, "That guy is awful! I haven't met anyone who makes me this angry in a long time. If this were at home, I'd shit on his head!"

"That's enough," Sun Qinian said. "What do you have to say here? You still plan to use the Sun family to pressure him? Don't you understand who's backing him?"

Sun Xiangwan shrank back. Due to Sun Qinian's doting affection, she actually didn't have much contact with the cultivation world.

My understanding of terms like "Taoist sect," "Qin's firm," and "Chen Fuzhou" was merely hearsay, so I was completely unaware of the seriousness of the problem.

However, judging from Sun Qinian's appearance, she could roughly guess that although Chen Qi was only a first-level cultivator, he had quite a few powerful backers.

but……

How could a first-level cultivator possess such a level of spiritual energy?

As someone who directly experienced Chen Qi's intimidating technique, Sun Xiangwan can confidently say that Chen Qi's current spiritual energy level has clearly far exceeded that of a normal second-tier cultivator, and he has even begun to approach the threshold of a third-tier cultivator.

Sun Qinian had a more direct understanding of this because Chen Qi's star chart was very strange.

His star map was clearly not finished, but its complexity already exceeded Sun Qinian's imagination.

Because the star map was not yet finished, Sun Qinian did not know what the prototype of his star map was for the time being, but it was definitely not a picture that an ordinary person could construct.

To put it bluntly, if someone else used this kind of drawing as their star map, they probably would never be able to break through to the second-tier cultivator in their entire life!

However, if it is truly achieved, it will be an unprecedented feat!

"Xiang Wan," Sun Qinian suddenly spoke.

Sun Xiangwan turned around, glanced at Sun Qinian, and asked softly, "What's wrong, Grandpa?"

Sun Qinian stared at Sun Xiangwan and said, "You absolutely must get a better ranking than him in this year's newcomer evaluation!"

"Of course!" Sun Xiangwan patted her arm muscles as she bent her elbow. "Being so scared that he knelt down was just an accident. I wasn't prepared. But as long as I use our Sun family's ancestral martial arts, he might not be able to beat me!"

Sun Qinian nodded, but didn't say the rest of his sentence.

Because this newcomer evaluation may very well be the only time in Sun Xiangwan's life that she has a chance to surpass Chen Qi.

If Chen Qi really grows up in the future, Sun Xiangwan will probably never be able to catch up with him in her entire life.

Build your self-confidence now.

This is the only chance!
