After breaking up with my girlfriend, I became a Great Sage of the Demon Clan.

"Young man, I know you. You must be Zhou Yan, the one who fought against our Holy Maiden, right?"

Wu Antong looked down at the mound of heads made up of the elite members of their sect in front of Zhou Yan.

The bishop didn't seem angry; he just asked out of curiosity.

"What did these little guys do to you? Is it really necessary to treat them like this?"

Wu Antong showed no anger whatsoever at the thought of Zhou Yan killing someone.

Zhou Yan said calmly.

“These people were killing and robbing people in Xinxing City. I couldn’t stand it, so I killed them.”

Su Qing feigned confusion.

"Murder and robbery? We're here to rescue people."

Wu Antong continued.

"Perhaps it's due to cultural differences that the gap exists. The believers in our sect are all kind, gentle, and law-abiding. They would never do anything immoral or evil."

Zhou Yan was so angry he laughed.

"Are you kidding me? You're not here to kill and rob, but fully armed to save lives?"

Su Qing looked righteous.

"I couldn't bear to see these city ruins, so isn't it normal for me to send my followers inside to give alms, food, and medicine? As for why they're fully armed, even the army needs tanks to go to disaster areas for relief!"

Wu Antong stroked his beard and laughed.

"Perhaps it really is a misunderstanding caused by cultural and linguistic differences, Mr. Zhou. I see that you have a bright future ahead of you, and it's not good for you to be hurt by these things. So, let's let this matter go, and we won't pursue the matter of you killing our men."

"Don't block our way, let us go."

As Wu Antong spoke, a majestic and awe-inspiring Dharma image faintly appeared behind him, demonstrating his confidence in not being afraid to fight Zhou Yan.

Any unilateral concession will only provoke the other party to become more aggressive. It is acceptable to make concessions, but you must also show your strength so that the other party will back down.

Zhou Yan shook the blood off his hands and said jokingly.

"Fine, I won't pursue these matters concerning your subordinates, but what about Su Changqing?"

"Su Changqing is still alive in your car. You should at least give me an answer, shouldn't you?"

Wu Antong and Su Qing's hearts skipped a beat, as if they had fallen into an icy pool, with the chill seeping into every inch of their bodies.

Zhou Yan shifted his gaze from the two people to the RV behind them.

Zhou Yan was unaware that Su Changqing was still alive. Neither of them, including the person who accompanied Zhou Yan to see Su Changqing's Xuanwu, had ever considered that a person who was an Awakened while alive could suddenly change their bloodline and become a Ghost Awakened after death.

After leaving Zhangjia Community, Zhou Yan returned to Wutong Hotel, cursing all the way.

As a result, Zhou Yan had not stayed at the Wutong Hotel for long when he felt a crisis that was not particularly terrible, but extremely unforgettable.

That was caused by Su Changqing, who was not yet familiar with his own ghostly body and was controlled by his obsession, and was preparing to find someone to harm Zhou Yan's parents.

It took Su Changqing several hours to realize why he should bother Zhou Yan and just live a peaceful life.

By the time Su Changqing called his agent again, the agent had already paid someone to confront Zhou Yan's parents.

Even if Su Changqing wanted to go back on his word, the intermediary had already lost contact with the hitman who had taken the money, so he had to find someone else to kill the hitman who was planning to harm Zhou Yan's parents.

During this time, Zhou Yan went to great lengths to reach his parents and kill the assassin who wanted to harm them. Before doing so, Zhou Yan found out about the agency that hired the assassin and obtained information about the person who wanted to harm his parents from the agency.

Then this morning, Zhou Yan arrived at the convoy where Su Qing was, and was shocked to find that Su Changqing was still alive.

Therefore, in this world, one can live with the sins of Heaven, but one cannot live with the sins of oneself.

Su Changqing couldn't muster any evil thoughts, and Zhou Yan couldn't find the guy's whereabouts either.

Chapter Eighteen, I'm going!

Inside a supermarket.

The hundreds of people gathered by Zhou Yan huddled together. The Nine-Colored Deer Qingcai covered these living people with its clear light, helping them to drive away disease and pain. Su Xiaowan blew on a few elderly people who were not exposed to the clear light, relieving their pain.

Before long, the local survivors, who were suffering greatly from lack of food and medicine, looked much better.

After completing her treatment, Nine-Colored Deer Qingcai walked away from the crowd and prepared to go get some water nearby.

Su Xiaowan looked after the surrounding disaster victims, asking where there were people who needed to be rescued. Su Xiaowan's physical fitness was now a thousand times that of an ordinary person, and she could rescue people even while enduring a barrage of artillery fire.

"Ok?"

Not long after leaving the crowd, the Nine-Colored Deer suddenly smelled a bloody stench emanating from the stairs.

There are people injured?

The nine-colored deer walked over with small, delicate steps. She liked to use her auspicious light to heal people.

A few steps closer, a large amount of blood was spreading outwards from the stairs.

The Nine-Colored Deer quickened its pace and soon reached the turn in the stairs. As soon as it turned, two people appeared at the bottom of the stairs. One person was lying on the ground, convulsing, while the other person was gnawing on the convulsing person.

"The Nine-Colored Deer said in a low voice."

What are you doing?

The person who was devouring flesh turned his head 180 degrees, and his face was clearly that of Su Changqing.

……

In front of Su Qing's RV.

Zhou Yan walked around the mound of Jingguan in front of him and headed towards Wu Antong and Su Qing.

Wu Antong and Su Qing's expressions changed repeatedly.

After Zhou Yan had taken a few steps, Wu Antong, who was older, suddenly called out.

"Mr. Zhou, are you aware that all the pharmaceutical groups in the country have fallen, and only in Indiana do we still have a complete pharmaceutical manufacturing system?"

Zhou Yan stopped.

Wu Antong felt he had Zhou Yan's thoughts under control, and smiled.

“Mr. Zhou, you are a talented person, but you lack a foundation. What kind of status can you achieve by simply working under Zhuque? How about this, I will discuss it with my Pope later. How about you become our Indiana's pharmaceutical purchasing agent? You will receive at least one-tenth of the pharmaceutical sales in Indiana!”

Su Qing chimed in.

“Brother, you should know that none of the Four Divine Beasts are focused on the medical field. Currently, the production of medicine is monopolized by our Indiana, and you can take one-tenth of that monopoly.”

Su Qing opened her arms, as if to embrace Zhou Yan.

"With this one-tenth, Brother Zhou, you will no longer have to be subordinate to the Vermilion Bird. You will be one of the richest people in the world, and you will also gain the friendship of our Indiana."

Zhou Yan fell silent, while Su Qing and Wu Antong looked at him expectantly.

After a long while, Zhou Yan looked up at the sky, and a series of ferocious images flashed through his mind.

"When I tracked you here, I saw fifty-three women's corpses buried in the camps ahead of you. Did you kill them?"

Zhou Yan had no desire to talk about how gruesome the bodies of the women who died in the Indiana motorcade camp were.

Wu Antong looked at Su Qing, whose face stiffened considerably. However, having spent a long time in Indiana, Su Qing spoke righteously after revealing her shameful thoughts.

"They are just disaster victims."

Zhou Yan lowered his head.

"So you killed them without any remorse?"

As the commander of this Indiana contingent, Zhou Yanzhen didn't believe that the dead in the camp were killed by other Christian guards despite Su Qing's objections.

Su Qing didn't address the issue directly, but instead stated it as a matter of course.

“People have different values. I once went to my hometown in the countryside, and one of the wisest people there asked me if the carrying pole our leader used to carry water was made of gold. But when I communicate with the elite members of my sect, they can talk to me about the big picture of the world.”

Wu Antong praised.

"The law does not apply to high-ranking officials, and etiquette does not apply to commoners; this is a conclusion reached by the sages long ago."

Zhou Yan said sarcastically.

"It's really interesting that you high-caste people in Indiana use a system of keeping the masses ignorant, monopolizing knowledge and class, and then you say things like 'the law does not apply to high-ranking officials, and etiquette does not apply to commoners,' as if you are destined to be superior. Don't you ever think that if you had the same educational resources as the common people, would you still dare to say that you can definitely beat them?"

Su Qing's expression was strange.

He didn't quite understand Zhou Yan's words. This "didn't understand" didn't mean he didn't comprehend the meaning of Zhou Yan's words, but rather that he didn't hear the requirement in Zhou Yan's words.

Su Qing tacitly approved of her Christian Guards killing people, and she also tacitly approved of her Christian Guards burning, killing, and looting, but what does all this have to do with Zhou Yan?

Zhou Yan saw it. At worst, we can split it in half when we meet. You keep the money and we can all pretend nothing happened.

Why bother getting entangled with a bunch of people you've never met? Wouldn't it be better to just exchange them for some money?

Do those disaster victims even deserve an explanation from us?!

"That……"

Su Qing said in a deep voice.

What do you want?

Su Qing couldn't understand Zhou Yan's thought process, so she just let whatever Zhou Yan said go. At worst, if Zhou Yan opened his mouth too wide, she would just say a few words back.

Zhou Yan looked at Wu Antong.

Wu Antong frowned, and a few seconds later, he shouted.

"Xiao Qing, let's go!"

Behind Wu Antong, the Great Mighty Heavenly Dharma Image moved, and a black ring radiated outward from it, incredibly thick. Countless praises and songs of praise flowed outward like a torrent towards Luoshan. Then, the Great Mighty Heavenly Dharma Image moved, and it swung down a black longsword in its hand towards Zhou Yan, which seemed to be able to cleave the heavens and the earth.

Zhou Yan easily stepped aside, but Su Qing, who had heard the words, quickly stepped aside as well.

"coax!"

The black longsword landed, its sword energy tearing apart the ground a hundred meters away, and even splitting a building in two.

Wu Antong is a demigod with 90% awakening level. With the Dharma form of the Great Mighty Heaven, he could destroy the entire New Star City if he wanted to.

Of course, Wu Antong has no need to destroy Xinxing City now; what he needs to do now is stop Zhou Yan.

Zhou Yan gave a soft chuckle.

Using his ability to traverse space, he easily rushed to within three meters of Wu Antong in mid-air, a feat that even normal people and normal flying Awakened beings could not achieve.

Wu Antong roared, and the eight arms of the Great Mighty Heavenly Dharma Form behind him moved simultaneously, with eight weapons attacking Zhou Yan continuously.

These eight weapons include a demon-slaying spear that killed the great demon king in Indian mythology, a thick blade that cuts a dragon in two, a heaven-opening axe that can split the sky, and a sea-dividing staff that can stop a river from flowing. Each weapon has its own mythology, and each weapon also has its own unparalleled martial arts skills.

These eight weapons are flawless in both offense and defense, and their densest attacks are virtually impenetrable.

But as Zhou Yan moved, he continued to advance amidst this impenetrable and unyielding attack, and in just three seconds, he escaped from the fierce onslaught of the Great Mighty Heaven.

Then he transformed into a streak of light and flew to Su Qing, who was running wildly.

Su Qing is not a demigod; he is merely a demon-level awakener. Therefore, while the demigod-level four-school competition in Zhongzhou City was in full swing, this guy finished the competition and was already preparing to go to other states to quell riots.

However, before she could even reach Dongyang Prefecture, which was awaiting governance, Su Qing encountered Zhou Yan.

Zhou Yan simply reached out, and Su Qing felt her body lighten, then she was lifted up.

Wu Antong's furious voice echoed around the area.

"Zhou Yan! How dare you!"

Zhou Yan, who was holding Su Qing, stared at Wu Antong expressionlessly.

Wu Antong felt a chill run down his spine under Zhou Yan's gaze, but he couldn't back down and could only say in a stern voice.

"If you dare to harm Su Qing, you are going against the entire Celestial caste of Indiana!"

After a pause, Wu Antong asked, puzzled.

"So what if a few civilians were killed? Is it really that big of a deal? Can't we talk this out?"

Although Su Qing, who was being held by Zhou Yan, was afraid, she still had a basic understanding of what was going on. The young man shouted in a panic.

"Zhou Yan, tell me what you want, tell me everything. I've given you everything I can. Is this all you want? I'll agree to anything you ask!"

Zhou Yan threw Su Qing to the ground. Su Qing rolled around on the ground a few times, got up, and, ignoring the dust on her body, forced a smile as she looked at Zhou Yan.

"I……"
