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

……

Inside an abandoned factory.

Zhou Yan, Su Xiaowan, and Bai Rusu untied the several girls who were bound.

However, just as the ropes binding the girls were untied, Zhou Yan, Bai Rusu, and Su Xiaowan all experienced a sudden blackout.

The darkness, just like before, suddenly appeared and was suddenly dispelled by the light.

The surrounding environment became clear.

Zhou Yan glanced around and realized that he seemed to be in a large pet market. His clothes had a logo that read "Shundu Pet Company".

Turning his head, Zhou Yan saw a young girl next to him wearing the same style of work clothes.

The girl stared at Zhou Yan and said something.

"White as white."

Zhou Yan replied.

"Zhou Yan".

The two turned their heads and looked around. There were cages all around, and inside the cages were foxes, dogs, cats and other pets of excellent quality.

One of the pure white foxes was swelling up, its two little paws patting the glass of the cage.

Zhou Yan walked up to the fox that was tapping on the glass and opened the cage.

The fox jumped out of its cage and into Zhou Yan's arms.

Zhou Yan hugged Su Xiaowan and turned to look at Bai Rusu.

"The three of us are all here."

Bai Rusu said meaningfully.

"The first one was you, you stinky monkey, the second one was me, and now, it's this little fox's turn?"

Bai Rusu placed one hand on her chin.

"So, is it over this time? Is it your turn again, you stinky monkey, or is it the end?"

Zhou Yan was unaware that, to be honest, he had seen millions of points of light inside the Five-Colored Stone. Those were foxes that had received the inheritance of the Qingqiu Immortal Technique. If he were to revive these foxes one by one…

Oh no, only foxes that have cultivated the Qingqiu Immortal Arts to a sufficient degree can be qualified to be resurrected from the Five-Colored Stone.

Those who haven't cultivated to a certain level, those points of light, those existences, are simply not enough to bear the mark of resurrection.

"Let's not talk about these things now."

Zhou Yan lifted Su Xiaowan, who was lying in his arms, and asked her.

"Xiao Wan, do you remember how old you are now?"

"Waaaaah!"

Su Xiaowan nodded.

Zhou Yan asked again.

"Do you remember any unforgettable memories from this time?"

Su Xiaowan continued to whine and cry out. Not only her mouth, but also her limbs moved frantically, as if trying to express something. However, because a fox's paws are not as flexible as a human's, she could not make the desired movements.

Bai Rusu, who was wearing work clothes, reminded her.

"Your fox should have gone back to the time when it didn't have supernatural powers."

Su Xiaowan cannot speak until she has reached a certain level of awakening. Zhou Yan took her to the Abyss Underworld to absorb enough spiritual energy before she could speak.

Now, we've returned to our original fox form.

This is a bit troublesome. If this past is mainly based on Su Xiaowan's memories, then if I can't communicate with Su Xiaowan, I won't know what to do next.

"You wait."

Bai Rusu turned and walked into the backstage area of ​​the pet company. A short while later, Bai Rusu came out carrying a box of ink and a piece of paper.

"Little fox, write down everything you know."

Bai Rusu placed the ink and paper on a table.

Zhou Yan walked to the table, placed Su Xiaowan down, and Bai Rusu opened the ink bottle cap and handed the ink to Su Xiaowan.

Su Xiaowan whimpered again, confirming that she had truly lost the ability to speak. She then stretched out her pink, white-haired paw and dipped it into the ink. Then, she dipped her little finger in the ink and began to write.

"...I should be two years old now..."

"At that time, I had a zookeeper who especially liked to pet me. He would prepare food for me every day and would hold me and tell me stories..."

"It must have been in the last few days. I remember the zookeeper telling me that he went to participate in a wildlife conservation event."

"A few days later, some people were talking and said that my zookeeper had been killed by poachers and the body could not be found."

After finishing writing this, Su Xiaowan looked up, her big eyes fixed on Zhou Yan.

Zhou Yan chuckled.

In fact, animal rights activists in the United States have come up with many bizarre cases. For example, some people report others for killing chickens, which makes the person killing the chicken angry and asks them if they should just wait for the chicken to commit suicide.

Some even incited animal rights protests, while others wore yellow leather boots themselves.

Some animal rights activists even mocked meat-eaters as primitive people, claiming that vegetarians are the noble ones.

Besides these eccentric animal rights activists, there is also a group of genuine animal rights activists who actually carry firearms and go to remote areas to fight poachers with real guns.

Zhou Yanbuzhong〃_Ｑn:九四玐△∷≯四(『＠伍) knows what kind of animal protection worker Su Xiaowan is, but since the person on the other side died at the hands of poachers, it is highly likely that he was really protecting animals.

Zhou Yan gently touched Su Xiaowan's head and affirmed.

"Understood, we'll go rescue the zookeeper now."

Bai Rusu turned around and said.

"I'll go prepare the weapons. You, you brat, go find out where that zookeeper is."

……

In the real world, there is the Dachong Forest.

An off-road vehicle drove through a mountain range in the forest.

The SUV driver explained.

"Dachong Forest is the largest temperate forest in my country, covering an area of ​​150 million square kilometers. It is home to countless protected animals and plants in my country. Any botanist or zoologist who has not been to this place is definitely failing."

A middle-aged man sitting in the passenger seat joked.

"Is it really that amazing?"

The driver nodded.

“Every year, hundreds of poachers die in this area. The National Animal Protection Agency has stationed 3,000 forest police officers here, and international animal protection organizations send more than 30,000 teams here every year to protect the flora and fauna.”

"Later I'll take you to the National Animal Protection Bureau, and then you'll understand the significance of this forest in our country."

The driver drove into a forest, and the vehicle drove through gravel roads and shrubbery. The man in the passenger seat took out his phone and kept taking pictures, and occasionally talked to the driver.

Suddenly.

"Clap..."

The passenger in the front seat, who was taking pictures with his phone, saw a white skeleton fall from the treetop to the ground in the distance.

Because they were quite far apart, the passenger in the front seat couldn't see clearly whether the falling bone was an animal bone or a human bone. However, the next moment, the bone that had fallen to the ground stood up.

Co-pilot Jiu finally saw clearly that it was a human skeleton.

4 “Hoo…”

The human bone exhaled a breath of white air, which brought a gentle breeze that swirled around the human bone and then wrapped around it.

Seeing that something was wrong, the driver accelerated and drove off.

The third person, who was in the passenger seat, was holding a phone. He took a picture of the bones wrapped in wind slowly growing flesh and blood, followed by a cascade of black hair falling from behind his head, covering his buttocks.

Not long after, the driver and the person filming in the passenger seat heard a heart-wrenching roar.

"Bai Ze!"

"I will surely skin you alive and tear you apart!"

The woodland trembled violently, birds flew about, and the sound of their wings flapping continued for a long time.

Chapter Fifteen: Resolving Cause and Effect

Dachong Forest, at the foot of a mountain.

Zhou Yan, Su Xiaowan (leaning on Zhou Yan's shoulder), and Bai Rusu, holding pistols, pointed them at six poachers who were already tied up and unable to resist.

Behind the poachers were more than a dozen animal protection workers who had been rescued.

These animal protection workers kept taking out various cages from the poachers' tents, opening them, and releasing various nationally protected animals.

Zhou Yan walked up to a middle-aged man who was obese and bald, and sighed.

"You've killed a lot of people."

When Zhou Yan and his two companions arrived at this place, they were a little late, and by then they saw the poachers arresting some environmentalists and some forest police.

I don't know what these poachers were thinking, but they actually shot several forest police officers and animal protection personnel in front of Zhou Yan.

To be honest, when Zhou Yan first arrived, he was thinking about how to hand these poachers over to the nearby forest police later.

After witnessing these beasts commit murder, there's no need to call the police.

Zhou Yan fired his gun, and the first poacher fell to the ground. The poachers around him trembled. The animal protection personnel who were sorting through nationally protected animals behind them instinctively turned around, but were quickly pulled back by others who knew what was going on.

"You didn't hear anything..."

"We know nothing..."

Several quick-witted individuals began reminding those nearby that upon hearing the gunshot "4," they should have some kind of response. (The rest of the text appears to be gibberish and unrelated to the initial statement.)

None of the people present were saints; after being reminded, they all turned back and continued doing what they were supposed to do.

Not long after, Zhou Yan killed the last poacher by blowing his head off.

As the final gunshots rang out, Zhou Yan, Bai Rusu, and Su Xiaowan were confronted with a familiar darkness, chaos, and distortion.

That concludes this memory point.

Zhou Yan didn't know who the resurrected person belonging to this memory point was, but he figured it must be related to him.

It seems that I've offended all the strongest foxes in Qingqiu.

Darkness enveloped Zhou Yan's vision, and chaos invaded his senses.

Zhou Yan could only think again, but could not move or receive intelligence.

After a long while, the darkness dissipated and light appeared.

Zhou Yan squinted for a moment, then slowly opened his eyes.

Zhou Yan saw an extremely dilapidated roof made of bundled weeds.

Emmmmm...

Are you still trying to revive the fox from Qingqiu inside the Five-Colored Stone?

Zhou Yan got out of his bed and looked around. The walls were made of mud, and inside were simple wooden furniture pieces, probably a dining table with an oil lamp on it.

Oil lamp?

Zhou Yan looked down at his clothes. Hmm, they were coarse linen clothes, faded and stiff from washing, and had an indescribable smell of sweat.

Is this... a return to ancient times?

Zhou Yan got out of bed. Under the bed were a pair of straw sandals, wide enough for his toes to stick out. Zhou Yan put his feet inside the sandals.

It feels so strange, both stinging and itchy, it's so uncomfortable. (Road)

After putting on his straw sandals, Zhou Yan got out of bed and went out of the house.

Outside the house was a cluster of mud-brick houses, and several small children with runny noses were running among the farmhouses.

Where have we arrived?
