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

Outside the RV, a friend of Liu Nanshan, also a capitalist from Dongyangzhou, was standing. When Liu Nanshan got off, the capitalist from Dongyangzhou took him to a 24-hour coffee shop outside the RV parking lot.

The coffee shop had been booked out. The federal government's military leader, a colonel, who had brought Liu Nanshan and others, sat in a corner on the first floor of the coffee shop. The other seats were occupied by more than a dozen capitalists from Dongyang Prefecture who had been exploited by the capitalists of Zhongzhou City and had no choice but to come out with the army.

Before all this, a young man who looked to be under twenty years old, with a somewhat childish appearance, stood.

Liu Nanshan's expression changed.

too young.

Liu Nanshan knew that the federal government was holding a four-school competition to select stronger awakened individuals to suppress riots, but most of the participants in those four-school competitions were young people who had not even attended university.

Young people like this becoming state legislators...

It can't be said to be too bad. In fact, in the history of the founding of the Eastern Xia Federation, the federal government has shut down more than a hundred times. The longest shutdown lasted for a month, during which the federal government did nothing. But the Eastern Xia Federation still managed to survive, as if it didn't matter that the federal government didn't exist.

If the federal government, as the political core of the Eastern Xia Federation, can act this way, then having a newly adult child as one of its political leaders cannot be considered unacceptable.

The capitalist from Dongyangzhou, who had brought Liu Nanshan with him, shouted as they entered the coffee shop together.

"Old Liu is here, Mr. Zhou. The crowd is almost here. If you have something to say, just say it."

Liu Nanshan and his friends took their seats.

Zhou Yan, who was standing at the front, coughed and then spoke.

"I won't go into the four core principles, five key points, or fifteen precautions. Ladies and gentlemen, my name is Zhou Yan, you can just call me Xiao Zhou. I'm the state legislator appointed by the federal government to be your enforcer and to suppress riots in Eastern Yang State."

The person closest to Zhou Yan, a well-mannered capitalist, immediately clapped his hands.

"Welcome, Mr. Zhou, to save the country and our citizens!"

The surrounding capitalists and soldiers then applauded.

Zhou Yan waited for the applause to subside before speaking.

"Alright, let's skip these formalities. I don't know anything about governing a country, so I'll need your help when we get to Dongyang Prefecture."

The colonel of the federal government's directly controlled army, who was sitting in the corner, suddenly laughed and mocked.

"Of course, since they are appointed by the federal government, we will definitely help them. However, Dongyangzhou is a place with outstanding people and countless awakened individuals. After the riots, each awakened individual established their own territory. It is said that there is a demigod awakened individual who wants to become a local emperor and openly establish a country in Dongyangzhou."

The colonel began to shake his head.

"I am just a Ghost-level Awakener, and I can't fight against this Demigod Awakener. I'll have to ask Councilor Zhou to go himself or ask the federal government to send someone."

The awakened individuals at the Demon level or above who can be controlled by the federal government are mostly in Zhongzhou City, and they are not usually released. The army under the colonel's command is almost entirely composed of ordinary people. These ordinary people are fine for bullying civilians when they are fully armed, but they are helpless when facing awakened individuals.

Many capitalists looked troubled.

Dongyang Prefecture is considered a relatively wealthy prefecture. There are three demigods in the prefecture: one is Liu Nanshan's son-in-law, another is the director of the local Second Security Bureau, and the third died during the pandemic.

The murderers were two demigods who had fled from other places. It was these two demigods, who did not seem to be good people, who directly forced the high-ranking government officials and capitalists of Dongyang Prefecture to abandon Dongyang Prefecture and seek refuge with the federal government in Zhongzhou City.

The reason why the capitalists were so happy when Su Qing came to take over the riots in Dongyang Prefecture was because the powerful Su family was there. Even if they couldn't kill the two demigods, they could still make them hesitate to do anything.

Now Zhou Yan is coming over...

Because Zhou Yan wasn't a participant in the Four Schools Competition, a group of older people who didn't watch the live stream didn't know what Zhou Yan's abilities were. However, the demigod-level battles in the Four Schools Competition were in full swing, so Zhou Yan was probably just a demon-level awakener. Otherwise, he wouldn't have left the Four Schools Competition early to help them suppress the riots.

Liu Nanshan suggested this to Zhou Yan.

"Our state has two demigods on the surface, but who knows how many more are lurking, waiting to take a bite out of our state? Mr. Zhou, perhaps..."

Zhou Yan interrupted.

"Mr. Liu, don't you watch the live stream?"

Liu Nanshan looked puzzled. "Weren't we discussing the recapture of Dongyang Prefecture?"

Why are you bringing up live streaming with me?

Zhou Yan then looked at the colonel, who was waiting to see him make a fool of himself.

"Hey, Colonel Lin Fangcheng, don't you watch the live stream either?"

Lin Fangcheng, who looked like a military rogue, shook his head.

“I watch the live stream. I watch the female bodhisattva twisting her waist and taking off her clothes in front of me every day.”

Lin Fangcheng even winked at Zhou Yan.

"How about I show you my following list later, Mr. Zhou? I guarantee you'll be satisfied."

Zhou Yan wanted to say "Okay" for a moment, but for the sake of his pride, he resisted the urge to check the list and only asked.

"There are two demigods in Dongyang Prefecture who want to become local emperors. Does anyone know who those two demigods are?"

Liu Nanshan raised his hand, and Zhou Yan looked at Liu Nanshan.

Liu Nanshan said awkwardly.

"I know one, I think his name is Niu Feidao, he was a major drug lord who was wanted by the country before..."

While Zhou Yan was speaking to Liu Nanshan, he casually opened his own little universe and took out the head of a burly man with a thick beard.

Zhou Yan placed the severed head on the coffee table next to him.

The coffee shop fell silent for a moment, then Colonel Lin Fangcheng shouted a few seconds later.

"This, this head belongs to Niu Feidao!"

Niu Feidao is the highest-paid drug lord in the Eastern Xia United States. However, this drug lord does not usually live in the Eastern Xia United States, but instead lives in a nearby small country and reigns supreme. This time, he probably came to plunder because he saw that the Eastern Xia United States was in turmoil.

Lin Fangcheng looked at Zhou Yan in disbelief and stammered.

"When I was young, I thought about capturing Niu Feidao and making a living, so I studied this...drug lord carefully..."

The expressions of the surrounding capitalists all changed.

Zhou Yan raised his chin and asked loudly.

"Who is the other demigod...?"

Beside Liu Nanshan, a capitalist in his thirties with a receding hairline stammered.

"Yes, it's Wang Zitong..."

Wang Zitong was also a top-ranking criminal on the Eastern Xia United States' wanted list.

Zhou Yan then took out a human head with blood-red eyes and scales on its face from his small universe.

Everyone in the coffee shop gasped.

This head belongs to Wang Zitong.

After Zhou Yan took on the task of suppressing the riot, he first went to Dongyang Prefecture to kill the two troublemaking demigods. These two demigods were used to bullying mortals. When Zhou Yan fought them, he felt that they were much weaker than the Long-Armed Ape. It only took him one day for the two demigods to hand over their heads.

Zhou Yan placed Wang Zitong's head on the other side, opposite Niu Feidao's head.

"The demigods you speak of are all dead."

Zhou Yan pointed to himself with his thumb.

"I killed him."

Another involuntary gasp.

The concerns of these capitalists have largely subsided.

Regardless of whether Zhou Yan killed Niu Feidao and Wang Zitong or had someone else kill them, the fact remains that Zhou Yan possesses demigod-level combat power. In terms of sheer brute force, their side has the advantage.

"Also, Qinglong and I have already discussed it. That guy will send us 300 tons of food every day. 300 tons of food is enough to feed 300,000 people."

Liu Nanshan couldn't hold back any longer and stood up to shout.

Three hundred tons, really?

In the current environment, normal logistics, industry, and agriculture have all collapsed. As a result, the prices of all commodities in the Eastern Xia Federation have been rising steadily. Even someone as wealthy as Liu Nanshan dares not say that he can afford to buy 300 tons of food every day.

Zhou Yan nodded vigorously.

"It's true, and even if the road is bad and it can't be delivered, Lord Qinglong has promised to transport it by plane, and there will be no delay."

Most capitalists suddenly wondered if Zhou Yan was Qinglong's biological son, otherwise why would Qinglong be willing to spend so much money to pave the way for Zhou Yan?

It's clear that elders are only so willing to go to such lengths when they're trying to create an impressive resume for their descendants.

"besides……"

Zhou Yan slowly walked up to Lin Fangcheng.

Lin Fangcheng's expression changed several times. Because he didn't know Zhou Yan's identity before, he was quite unrestrained in his words and actions. But now that he saw Zhou Yan kill two demigods, his status and position immediately changed.

"Whoosh..."

Lin Fangcheng's vision blurred, followed by a sharp pain in his wrist.

After a brief moment of confusion, Lin Fangcheng raised his hand, which had lost its palm. The other capitalists who were near Lin Fangcheng glared at him and then quickly left his side.

The departing capitalists were wondering to themselves, "Is Zhou Yan really that short-tempered?"

Lin Fangcheng's tone was disrespectful, but it didn't warrant cutting off someone's hand, did it?

Or is this a show of force?

"You bastard!"

Lin Fangcheng, who had lost an arm, stood up in a rage, but Zhou Yan reached out and pressed him back down, shouting at the same time.

"Clear Colors!"

A small deer ran out from the stairs of the coffee shop and came to Zhou Yan's side, releasing auspicious seven-colored light.

A miracle happened.

At the wrist where Lin Fangcheng's hand was severed, the bone and flesh seemed to have been 3D printed and regrown.

In just two breaths, Lin Fangcheng's hand was completely restored.

Zhou Yan tossed Lin Fangcheng's hand back and said calmly.

"I have two divine beasts here whose innate supernatural power is healing. Even if someone has a broken arm or leg, or ruptured internal organs, as long as they still have a breath left, I can bring them back to life."

The surrounding capitalists took their third breath.

With food, violence, and medical care all provided, it's like a stabilizing force firmly planted in everyone's hearts.

Liu Nanshan came up and shouted excitedly.

“Mr. Zhou, you are absolutely the savior of our Dongyang Prefecture.”

The other capitalists couldn't help but applaud and say something.

“Mr. Zhou, with your arrival, Dongyang Prefecture will be at peace.”

“Mr. Zhou, once Dongyang Prefecture is pacified, I will definitely find someone to build you the largest statue ever made, so that all future citizens will know that Dongyang Prefecture once had such a hero.”

"Haha, tomorrow we'll speed up our journey to Dongyangzhou and make sure to rescue the people from their suffering as soon as possible!"

Amidst praise and applause, Lin Fangcheng, whose hand had been severed and then healed by Zhou Yan, changed his expression several times.

One hand touched the severed hand again, then looked at Zhou Yan's original hand next to him.

Lin Fangcheng's expression darkened.

Zhou Yan clearly slapped him in front of everyone just now.

Whether it was a show of force or an attempt to establish authority, Lin Fangcheng felt uncomfortable, but as an adult, he wouldn't voice his discomfort.

However, Lin Fangcheng would remember this discomfort and wait for the right time...

Zhou Yan suddenly turned around and looked at Lin Fangcheng.

A fleeting gloom crossed Lin Fangcheng's face, and the colonel forced out a hearty smile typical of men.

Zhou Yan spoke up.

"Colonel Lin, I just chopped off your hand to prove Qingcai's healing abilities. You're not angry, are you?"

Lin Fangcheng smiled.

"of course not."

Lin Fangcheng raised his hand, then clenched it and released it.

"Anyway, I haven't lost anything, have I?"

Zhou Yan turned to the other capitalists.
