Reborn as a lotus, she initially refuses to hand it over to the state.

at the same time.

In Dongcheng District of Nanjiang City, Li Ergou had just ended his live stream and was cleaning the streets with several comrades.

Squad leader Zhuo Sikai glared at Li Ergou and said, "Hey Ergou, can't you use your brain? You're on the battlefield and you're still in the mood for live streaming? Are you out of your mind?"

Another comrade said, "Ergou, the squad leader is right. You can't be so reckless in the future."

Upon hearing this, Li Ergou smiled and said, "Squad leader, what was the situation back then? I was prepared to die, and I thought that before I died, I should leave something behind as a memento, so I did the live broadcast. Besides, I'm an orphan, and my family is gone. If I really sacrificed myself, I would be considered a martyr, a real man."

Upon hearing this, the class monitor and the others immediately fell silent.

Some of them also had families. They had already prepared themselves to die before participating in the suppression of the beast tide. Who wouldn't miss their family?

"You brat, who said you're an orphan? Don't you still have us? If you say that again, we'll get angry." Zhuo Sikai punched Li Ergou in the chest in annoyance.

Li Ergou was immediately touched. "Squad leader, you're so kind."

He then went to hug the class monitor, but the monitor said, "Get lost, you little brat, don't disgust me. I don't like men."

Upon hearing this, everyone burst into laughter, and the oppressive atmosphere that had been hanging over them dissipated considerably.

Suddenly, a comrade pointed to the distant sky and shouted, "Look! What's that?"

As Li Ergou and the others looked up, they were all stunned.

A loud bang came from the sky.

As everyone looked up, they saw a figure falling rapidly, just before hitting the ground.

As the man took a step forward, an astonishing explosion erupted in the void, and a terrifying pressure swept out in all directions.

In the eastern district of Nanjiang City, several first-tier mutated demon wolves were devouring human corpses. Just as they were about to look up, they were suddenly enveloped by a terrifying pressure. The next moment, the bodies of the mutated demon wolves exploded.

It turned into a sky full of blood mist.

Beneath the ruins of an abandoned house, several residents of Nanjiang City hid, watching in despair as mutated wolves devoured the corpses of their companions.

I thought there was no hope of survival, but unexpectedly a powerful figure intervened.

Zhou Zhenshan sensed that they were hiding under the ruins. His expression changed, and he turned to look at the ruins, raising his hands as his surging true energy flowed within him.

As he used his abilities, the beams that were originally pressing down on the ruins flew into the air and landed steadily on the nearby ground.

The two men and three women hiding inside were revealed.

"Are we rescued?"

Seeing this, the group was incredibly moved, tears welling up in their eyes, and they immediately wanted to kneel down before Zhou Zhenshan.

Zhou Zhenshan took a step and disappeared from the spot.

His voice rang in their ears: "Retreat southeast, officials will meet you there."

At the same time.

In many areas of Nanjiang City, all the remaining alien beasts felt the terrifying pressure that Zhou Zhenshan had when he appeared.

A strange beast fled in terror.

Some of the strange beasts lay on the ground trembling, while others, lower-level beasts, didn't even have time to howl before their bodies exploded into a bloody mist.

Zhou Zhenshan stood in mid-air.

He simply took a step forward.

The air vibrated again, and golden-red blood energy spread out like a tide.

Those strange beasts hidden in ruins, shopping malls, and underground parking garages were all instantly locked onto by fifth-level divine sense.

The next moment, bursts of blood mist exploded simultaneously in various parts of the city, on the front lines of Nanjiang City.

The soldiers were stunned as they watched the blood mist bursting open in the distance.

A man gripped a gun, his voice trembling: "Which powerful figure from our Dragon Kingdom is this?"

Zhou Zhenshan's transformation into a younger man and his previous entry into the pseudo-fifth rank and questioning of the Lord of the Azure Lotus in the Azure Lotus Forbidden Land were not secrets.

To stabilize public morale, the Dragon Kingdom government, with Zhou Zhenshan's permission, publicly announced that Zhou Zhenshan had reached the fifth rank, but one point was left undisclosed.

The specific person who entered the Azure Lotus Forbidden Zone, and the fact that Zhou Zhenshan became younger, have never been made public.

Everyone was naturally surprised and shocked to see Zhou Zhenshan appear.

Li Ergou even started a live stream, and as soon as his live stream room opened, countless viewers flooded in.

In just one day, Li Ergou's account has gained over 100 million followers, and the number is still growing rapidly.

The squad leader and his comrades were busy cleaning up the battlefield and naturally didn't have time to pay attention. They were all quite surprised to find that Li Ergou had over 100 million followers.

However, as surprising as it may seem, it pales in comparison to the shock brought by Zhou Zhenshan.

Almost at the same time as Li Ergou's live stream, wherever Zhou Zhenshan went, there were low-level mutated beasts, and even beasts with second and third-level strength.

They were all suppressed and killed on the spot by him.

Li Ergou's live stream camera shook violently, and he was completely dumbfounded: "Holy crap, they were all wiped out in seconds?"

The live stream chat exploded.

Xerxes II of Eastvale: "I'm fucking dumbfounded! Is this even human?"

[The heartbroken Musk Moon]: "I always thought Grandmaster Chen was powerful enough, but who is this?"

[No love, no regrets]: "One minute, I need all the information on this man!"

[How Much Sorrow Will There Be Tonight]: "Didn't they just say someone broke through in Beijing? Could it be him?"

The number of viewers in the live stream skyrocketed, exceeding ten million in no time and even increasing at an even faster rate. Li Ergou's live stream made it onto the platform's trending list for the first time.

In the shot, Zhou Zhenshan simply raises his head.

Looking into the distance, dozens of fleeing beasts suddenly froze.

The next moment, Zhou Zhenshan appeared in front of these strange beasts, raised his hand and threw a punch into the air, causing dozens of fleeing beasts to explode on the spot.

It turned into a sky full of blood mist.

Zhou Zhenshan erected an invisible barrier around himself, preventing the blood mist from getting close.

This astonishing scene left everyone in the live stream completely stunned.

Heilong Mountain, outside Lingquan Valley.

Chen Mo was watching Li Ergou's live stream on his tablet.

He originally only wanted to pay attention to the situation on the front line in Nanjiang City, but when he saw Zhou Zhenshan descend from the sky and shatter the monsters in the entire block with one step, he was stunned.

"This is what fifth-order humanity looks like?"

His throat bobbed, his eyes filled with shock. This power was truly terrifying, but when he thought about how it compared to the Lord of the Azure Lotus...

Chen Mo immediately stopped thinking it was nothing. In the live stream, Li Ergou was still shouting, "Brothers, did you see that? This is a powerful warrior from our Dragon Kingdom!"

The screen was flooded with comments.

Xerxes II of Eastvale: "I'm watching on my knees! That one kick sent all the monsters on the street exploding!"

[The heartbroken Musk Moon]: "That was awesome! Now that's what a true human powerhouse looks like!"

[No Love, No Regrets]: "Who said humanity was doomed? Come out and take your punishment!"

Chen Mo felt a chill run down his spine. He subconsciously looked towards Black Dragon Lake and respectfully said, "Master, a fifth-tier human has made a move."

In the center of Heilong Lake, Chu Zhou's consciousness descended.

Chen Mo quickly projected the live stream onto the tablet and respectfully held it up. In the video, Zhou Zhenshan's figure blurred into afterimages, and his punches were as powerful as thunder, freezing the bodies of dozens of strange beasts.

The next moment, they all exploded into a bloody mist.

The live stream chat erupted in excitement once again.

Chu Zhou wasn't surprised to see Zhou Zhenshan take action. If the other party remained indifferent to the outbreak of a beast tide in Nanjiang City, then there would really be a problem.

Back in the underground ancient city, Guai Shi was naturally aware of what was happening in the outside world. Seeing Zhou Zhenshan make his move, Guai Shi immediately sneered: "This human is quite capable to have reached the fifth rank, but to kill a beast so ostentatiously is simply foolish."
