The Strongest Outcast

He was the so-called 'error corrector' or 'error terminator,' playing a role in preventing the error from continuing.

Acting on orders...

Was he wrong?

That's right.

Does Wu Xiangyou really deserve to die?

The answer is clearly no.

If we really have to find a source for the mistakes in this incident, it is the fault of the company's bunker staff and managers. It was their series of irresponsible actions after the target was contained that led to Wu Xiangyou's eventual death.

This mistake,

Do the company's senior management really know this?

Liu Xiaojiang never considered himself simple and kind, but he did have his own set of principles for doing things and was able to distinguish right from wrong according to conventional standards.

This kind of job requires you to personally clean up the mess left by the company's hidden bunkers, but ultimately you have to bear the moral condemnation yourself...

He would feel extremely unhappy no matter what.

Right now,

Based on the influence of practicing the Zhengyi Tranquility Mantra, Liu Xiaojiang began to have a clear definition of good and evil in his heart. He originally thought that since the company was secretly acting on behalf of the government, it would be impossible for them to do anything that would damage the reputation of their superiors.

result,

But reality gave him a resounding slap in the face.

The company certainly has a reason to exist.

But the people in charge of the company are not trustworthy at all.

At least,

For a company with such an unusual presence as him,

Never believe it easily.

after all,

After witnessing the company's attitude towards Wu Xiangyou, Liu Xiaojiang naturally put himself in the same position, feeling that he must also be an unstable factor in the company's eyes.

Considering the specific reasons for establishing the temporary worker system and the types of tasks that temporary workers receive on a daily basis, this undoubtedly only proves that they are at most a temporarily controllable and unstable factor.

Once temporary workers become uncontrollable, the attitude of companies and similar organizations is naturally predictable.

By then,

What Wu Xiangyou encountered will likely become the common fate of all temporary workers...

"Hahaha, you're only just realizing this now? Humans have always been like this. When there's no threat from other races, they'll start killing each other. Even powerful beings like you and me..."

They absolutely cannot accept this!

"Give up! You're such a good zombie! What kind of person do you think you are? How despicable are you? Hahahaha..."

Liu Xiaojiang suddenly heard a sarcastic remark in his mind, and immediately frowned. "So you've been paying attention to me all along. A great god like you is doing spying every day. Don't you feel ashamed?"

"This is no longer an era of alien races. Even aliens have to bow down to ordinary people, and zombies..."

Do you think you can withstand airplanes and cannons?

"Hmph, brat, what do you take me for? A human who doesn't even understand cultivation? Even if I'm just a remnant soul, who can harm me in the slightest?"

"Ha, a remnant soul." Liu Xiaojiang scoffed at this. "If you were really that powerful, you wouldn't be clinging to life like this. Go ahead and boast, I'll admit defeat if I believe you."

"I blew my ass! You bastard! You win! I bastard win!"

Hearing Ying Gou's furious curses erupting from within him, Liu Xiaojiang immediately realized he had struck a chord with him, and continued:

"No way, no way, no way, what era is this? Does anyone still think I'm the best in the world when I'm just a remnant soul hiding in someone else's body, barely surviving..."

"!!!"

“＊＊＊＊！＊＊＊＊＊！＊＊＊＊＊！＊＊＊＊＊！！！!” Ying Gou’s voice became even more pleasant.

……

After a long time,

Ying Gou remained silent, seething with resentment.

Liu Xiaojiang's mood was thus somewhat calmed down. He stopped dwelling on the right and wrong of the Wu Xiangyou incident and instead focused all his attention on the future, thinking about his relationship with the company while organizing information about the Eight Extraordinary Techniques and the Jia Shen Rebellion.

At this time,

With the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony approaching,

Liu Xiaojiang finally remembered what he had promised Xu Si and the others. Based on the information he had gleaned from Tian Lao during this time, he picked up his phone and sent a message to Xu Si.

[Zhang Xilin, originally named Zhang Huaiyi, is one of the former Celestial Master's personally taught disciples. More details... will be explained to him by the former Celestial Master after Zhang Chulan's victory in the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony.]

[Fourth Brother received it!]

We just received a reply.

Liu Xiaojiang discovered that Erzhuang, after a day of investigation, seemed to have finally made some progress.

[Brother Jiang, things are fine at the bunker for now, and things are relatively normal in the asylum. Although there are some abnormal individuals who can't be easily reintegrated into society, they haven't gone too far in targeting them.]

As for Sister Duo'er that Wu Xiangyou mentioned... you should take a look for yourself. (Hesitates)

Ding!

Liu Xiaojiang looked at the detailed information sent by Erzhuang. The first thing that caught his eye was a pair of lifeless eyes, like those of a puppet. As he read the information in detail...

His brows furrowed even more deeply.

"Temporary worker in South China... Medicine Immortal Society... Gu Body Saint Child... Chen Duo... She was also a temporary worker, and this experience..."

Are you sure?

[Brother Jiang, this is information recorded inside the bunker; its authenticity should be guaranteed.]

"call……"

Liu Xiaojiang frowned as he put down his phone, rubbing his forehead in exasperation. "What a joke! Even though they're all temporary workers, something like a humanoid bioweapon, once it gets out of control..."

The impact will only be greater.

"Brother Jiang, I don't think the company has any ill intentions towards Chen Duo, right? Otherwise, why would they let her...?"

"Did the company harbor ill intentions towards Wu Xiangyou from the very beginning?"

[…What should we do? Try to make contact secretly?]

"Not for now. Although Chen Duo is allowed to go out, she will always be under the company's surveillance. If your presence is accidentally exposed..."

It's of no benefit to us.

【That……】

"Erzhuang, let's ignore this for now. We'll wait until the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony is over and I can go down the mountain to return to the company."

We'll make a decision later.

Okay, I'll do whatever you say, Brother Jiang. (Seriously)

Volume Three: The Grand Ritual of Luotian

Chapter 68 How can you say that Daoist Master is a fraud?

The sacrificial ceremony to Heaven at the Zhengyi Celestial Master's Mansion

On that day,

The Luotian Grand Ritual is one of the most solemn activities in Taoist rituals.

The so-called 'Luo Tian' refers to the outer heaven, the highest and widest heaven.

'Jiao' is a Taoist ritual for worshipping the Three Pure Ones, the Four Emperors, and the Five Stars.

The Luotian Grand Ritual was originally a sacrificial activity to pray for blessings and ward off disasters before heaven, earth, all things, and gods from all directions. It was by no means a ceremony in which the Zhengyi Celestial Master's Mansion could elect a successor to the Celestial Master.

after all,

The Celestial Master is never elected by the public; only the disciples recognized by the previous Celestial Master are qualified to inherit the position of Celestial Master of the Zhengyi Celestial Master's Mansion.

therefore,

The reason why the Celestial Master's Mansion held a public selection process at the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony to choose a winner under the age of 30 to inherit the position of Celestial Master was entirely to give Zhang Chulan a chance to return to the Celestial Master's Mansion.

To rightfully accept the protection of the Zhengyi sect.

As for the purpose of the old master's actions...

After the prayer ceremony at the front mountain ended,

Liu Xiaojiang and Zhang Lingyu followed the old Celestial Master, being interviewed and photographed by the media from the foot of the mountain. Thinking of the upcoming Luotian Grand Ceremony, he couldn't help but look at the old Celestial Master who was making a peace sign in front of the camera.

Previously,

He asked the old master why he was so concerned about Zhang Chulan, and the answer he received was a seemingly reasonable explanation of the bond between the master and disciple.

Zhang Chulan is Zhang Huaiyi's grandson.

Zhang Huaiyi was a disciple of the previous Celestial Master, and a fellow disciple of the old Celestial Master and Tian Lao. During that riot, in order not to implicate his sect, he left Longhu Mountain on his own.

Therefore,

Even if only out of consideration for the bond between the master and disciple,

The Celestial Master also believed that the Celestial Master's Mansion should protect Zhang Huaiyi's grandson.

Other than that,

He also failed to get any other answers from the old master.

After a while,

"That concludes today's interview. Thank you, Master!"
