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

Bai Lin, the red-bottomed macaque who had just returned from training with the gibbon, saw the city wall of his own stronghold after crossing a small path.

The gibbon patted the rump of the red-bottomed macaque beside it and said earnestly.

"It's great that you're willing to give up the stable environment of school and come with me to train in the Ten Thousand Miao Mountains."

The red-bottomed macaque said firmly.

"What kind of man are you if you can't even protect your own girlfriend!"

When Zhou Yan stormed into the hotel where the First Academy was staying and beat up Mi Qing, the Long-Armed Ape's pride as a man exploded.

After Zhou Yan left, the entire First Academy was in an uproar. Although most people sided with Mi Qing and the Long-Armed Ape, feeling that it was too low-class for Zhou Yan to beat up a woman, some people still thought that it was very cool for Zhou Yan to single-handedly defeat the entire First Academy.

The Long-Armed Ape compared himself to Zhou Yan, and at that moment he knew that he would definitely find an opportunity to fight Zhou Yan in the future and then take back his dignity from Zhou Yan.

The gibbon thought the same thing.

The two clever monkeys, the gibbon and the red-bottomed macaque, returned to their stronghold, dreaming together of facing Zhou Yan the following year and taking back victory and glory from him in a fair and square manner.

This is what a man should do.

……

Conference room on the second floor of the municipal government building in Luomen City, Dongyangzhou.

"Oh no..."

Zhuque's lips slowly curled up, her eyes filled with mockery.

"I should call you Lord Bai Ze!"

Zhou Yan, who was being held by Zhuque, turned pale for a moment, but quickly recovered.

It's nothing. I already have a divine status, and my awakening level has reached 68%. Even if I can't defeat Suzaku, I can at least escape without any problem. Besides, I have Little Yama behind me.

So there's no need to worry.

Zhuque looked at Zhou Yan with great interest.

"What, you're not going to argue?"

Zhou Yan led Jiu Ba Feng to sit down opposite the two great fox spirits of Qingqiu, and then spoke. >Four∮:

“Some things, once done, can never be undone. And Lord Suzaku, you didn’t come to kill me just because I’m Bai Ze, did you?”

When Zhou Yan came to Dongyang Prefecture, he did not sense much of a crisis.

Therefore, Zhou Yan was certain that Zhuque did not come to kill him because he was Bai Ze.

In fact, from beginning to end, Zhuque never wronged Zhou Yan. On the contrary, she always helped Zhou Yan and even saved him several times when he was being chased by the disciples of the Living Buddha Kongzhen.

This is also where the Four Divine Beasts differ from the government. Compared to the government, the Four Divine Beasts treat their subordinates more like gang members, without regard to right or wrong, good or evil. They believe that if they can protect you and give you what you want, you have to do things for them.

Therefore, even Zhou Yan had to admit that there was a lot of room for cooperation between him and the Vermilion Bird. Not only the Vermilion Bird, but also the White Tiger, Azure Dragon, and Black Tortoise were all quite easy to talk to.

Especially now that Xuanwu is on the side of the federal government.

Zhou Yan had also considered that once he rose to power, joining forces with Little Yama might be able to subdue the Vermilion Bird, White Tiger, and Azure Dragon both openly and secretly, and make them abandon their factional ways and devote themselves to the great work of bringing happiness to the people.

Just ...

Zhou Yanjiu shifted his gaze from Zhuque to Su Yue and Feng Baiping, who appeared calm on the other side, but whose faces betrayed a sinister fear beneath.

Even though he didn't feel a strong sense of crisis that the two foxes wanted to kill him, Zhou Yan could still sense their ill intentions towards him through the goosebumps rising on his back.

Zhou Yan spoke slowly but earnestly.

“I am not Bai Ze, well, at least not the Bai Ze you remember.”

"I don't know about your grudges, and I don't want to know. I saved you because of the orders of the Goddess Nuwa, so..."

Zhou Yan gently patted Jiu Feng's little hand beside him and said righteously.

"We have no relationship. Please don't try to pin other people's problems on me."

Jiufeng's face lit up with joy. She had thought about it before, how could her Xiaoyan have any relationship with these two old lady foxes? So it must be that these two old lady foxes were just being delusional.

Jiufeng turned her head and shouted at the two great fox spirits of Qingqiu.

"Yes, yes, my Xiaoyan has nothing to do with you vixens, so get lost! Don't disturb my and Xiaoyan's time together."

Feng Baiping, the Holy Maiden of Qingqiu dressed in black gauze, tilted her head slightly and sent a telepathic message into Su Yue's head.

What do you think?

Su Yue responded (using telepathy).

"This little guy doesn't seem to have the same troublemaking skills as that sarcastic ghost. He's talking so nicely now, but he doesn't have any of Bai Ze's imposing presence."

If this were the Bai Ze from Su Yue's memory, he wouldn't be standing here saying he has nothing to do with you, but would be excitedly saying, "I am Bai Ze, I ruined you, deceived you, and toyed with you, and now I've saved you."

"So, do you want to repay a debt of gratitude, or seek revenge?"

If Su Yue wants to repay a debt of gratitude, Bai Ze will continue to hurl insults and mockery; if she wants revenge, Bai Ze will resort to moral blackmail and moral criticism.

In short, if he doesn't make you furious, he wouldn't be Bai Ze.

Therefore, the young Bai Ze had not yet developed his supernatural powers.

Su Yue continued.

"Let's take it down first."

Feng Baiping nodded her chin almost imperceptibly, and her bright red lips slowly parted.

"Since you saved me, I can let bygones be bygones."

Zhou Yan breathed a sigh of relief. That's more like it. He and his past self are not the same Bai Ze at all. Why are you all clinging to your past self?

I am innocent.

However, Feng Baiping's next words sent chills down Zhou Yan's spine.

"So come back to Qingqiu with us. The young foxes of Qingqiu need to spread their branches and rebuild their grotto."

Flames instantly erupted from Jiufeng's body, engulfing half of Zhou Yan's body, and his clothes turned to ash.

"What did you say!"

The phoenix's eyes were swallowed by the golden flames.

"Qingqiu, to carry on the family line?!" ∮＄±—∨↑ Search ∝:

"Do you believe it or not..."

The muscles on Jiufeng's face twitched.

"I will exterminate your entire Qingqiu clan right now!"

Zhuque, sitting in the front seat, slapped the table and shouted.

"Quiet!"

The fire on Jiufeng's body subsided a little.

Almost naked, Zhou Yan patted Jiu Feng's head and forcibly pulled his naked arm out of Jiu Feng's arms.

Covered in the black residue left by his melted clothes, Zhou Yan said weakly.

"You should handle your own affairs in Qingqiu. What am I, an outsider, doing here?"

Su Yue spoke for the first time.

"You're not an outsider."

Zhou Yan laughed.

"You are foxes, and I am Bai Ze. Do you want me to show you my mythical form? We are different in height and size, you know that?"

Su Yue slowly uttered the words in an elegant and natural voice.

"Bai Ze, you took the Nuwa Stone, right?"

Zhou Yan's expression changed.

He did more than just take the Nuwa Stone; he practically swallowed it, transforming it into the foundation of Little Western Heaven and his own Little Universe.

Zhou Yan now has a small world, half the size of the Earth, and it will continue to grow larger over time, giving rise to earth, fire, wind, water, plants, animals, and so on.

All of this is based on the supernatural power of the Nuwa Stone.

Furthermore, because the Nuwa Stone was a divine object once used to mend the sky, Zhou Yan clearly felt that his own little world had more potential than Qinglong's, whose creation power was accumulated over three thousand years of hard work.

Feng Baiping then spoke. (Qiong)

"I am the Holy Maiden of Qingqiu. The Holy Maiden's primary duty is to guard the Sacred Stone, conduct coming-of-age ceremonies for younger generations, and allow them to inherit the Sacred Stone's legacy." (Bab)

"The past and future of the entire Qingqiu are all contained in the Sacred Stone."

Feng Baiping tilted her head slightly, her eyes, tinged with a hint of allure, meeting Zhou Yan's gaze directly.

"And Bai Ze, you took the Sacred Stone." (Umbrella)

Zhou Yan: "..."

Indeed, having taken the Nuwa Stone, the Qingqiu clan no longer possesses such a powerful divine essence as the Nuwa Stone. Even if their lineage remains, their most crucial foundation is gone.

The Qingqiu clan will find it increasingly difficult to produce anyone with god-like combat power.

But! Swelling

Zhou Yan's eyes darted around in their sockets a few times before he spoke firmly.

“I possess a divine power capable of creating the world. The Nuwa Stone has entered my small world. If you Qingqiu don’t mind, I can create a world for you, allowing your fox clan to live within it.”

"As for the divine status you want..."

After thinking for a moment, Zhou Yan tore open his own little world and took out a radiant relic that shone with a crystal-clear Buddhist light.

Zhou Yan grabbed the relic and handed it to Su Yue and Feng Baiping.

"This is a divine entity left behind by the Buddha after his death."

The demonic beings were beaten to death by Zhou Yan in Zhou Yan's womb realm. After their deaths, their divine essence remained. Zhou Yan himself had a divine essence, but he couldn't absorb this divine essence, so it had been gathering dust in a corner. Unexpectedly, it has now come in handy.

“You can take this divine essence as a substitute for the Nuwa Stone.”

Feng Baiping glanced at the relics of the Buddha of All Beings and shook her head.

"The Sacred Stone is a divine object used to mend the heavens; how could ordinary deities compare to it..."

Zhou Yan: “(?_?)”

Indeed, an ordinary divine power can only revive one god, but the Five-Colored Stone seems to be able to revive a large number of Qingqiu fox spirits.

Zhou Yan began to use his omniscience to explore how to find a better alternative.

But Su Yue on the other end replied.

"Bai Ze, you said you came to save us on the orders of the Goddess Nuwa, right?"

Zhou Yan nodded without saying a word.

Feng Baiping countered with a question.

"The Sacred Stone is the foundation of Qingqiu, the true inheritance of Qingqiu. What do you think Nuwa means by asking you to take it?"

Zhou Yan: "Σ(゜ロ゜;)"

Su Yue spoke with an air of composure and an air of superiority.

"The Goddess Nuwa entrusted you, Bai Ze, with the sacred stone, which means she entrusted Qingqiu to you, Qi Bai Ze. You must know..."

Su Yue's lips curled up; the queen felt an unprecedented sense of pleasure.

"...Dare you abandon Qingqiu and defy the decree of the Goddess Nuwa?"

Chapter Twenty: Saved

"...Dare you abandon Qingqiu and defy the decree of the Goddess Nuwa?"

"...Dare you abandon Qingqiu and defy the decree of the Goddess Nuwa?"

"...Dare you abandon Qingqiu and defy the decree of the Goddess Nuwa?"

These words were like thunderclaps echoing in Zhou Yan's ears, causing his face to turn pale and then red, and his body to tremble.

Nuwa... wants to manage Qingqiu herself?
