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

The deputy seated governor of Dawu Prefecture said with disdain.

"Nouveau riche love to show off things like this."

The further the vehicles drove, the more luxury cars appeared. The state legislators from Dawu Prefecture inside quickly identified the passengers as either state legislators or governors, or local capitalists.

Capitalists also need powerful backers, and the stronger the backer, the more successful they can be in their field. To this end, capitalists invest in and promote street politicians, ensuring that these scapegoats can become community councilors, city councilors, state councilors, and eventually members of Congress.

Of course, it's not that complicated now. There's a true god in Dongyang Prefecture you can rely on.

The commercial vehicle from Dawu Prefecture, accompanied by the luxury car beside it, drove onto the highway from Dongyang Prefecture directly to Luomen City.

After all, it is a place where the true god is in charge. Other states have only recovered a few cities in the past two years and just resettled millions of people. But in Luomen City, it seems that the pre-disaster prosperity has been restored. There are smartly dressed young people everywhere, a large number of shops are open, and the flow of people is not low.

Wei Youde invited people to the banquet at Qingfengxiang Restaurant, the only high-end restaurant currently open in Luomen City.

Because all the guests were VIPs, the street where Qingfengxiang lived had been sealed off by the military, allowing only invited capitalists and state legislators from other states to enter.

As representatives of Dawu State, the group of state legislators naturally passed through the checkpoint of the Dongyang State National Guard without any obstacles, drove to the front of Qingfengxiang Restaurant, went down to the underground parking lot, and parked in one place.

Just as the car stopped and people began to get off, a burst of hearty and enthusiastic laughter came from afar.

"Old Wu, haha, you've finally arrived."

When Elder Wu, the governor of Dawu Prefecture, turned around, he saw a slightly overweight, bald man walking up to him.

This person is Anmilin, the mayor of Dayu City in Dongyang Prefecture, and one of the entities that the state government of Dawu Prefecture is preparing to cooperate with.

Bald Mayor Anmilin walked up to the governor of Dawu Prefecture with a smile, exchanged pleasantries, and then led the people of Dawu Prefecture to the elevator.

The banquet was held on the eighth floor. When the group arrived, there were already hundreds of people on the eighth floor. These people formed small groups of three or five, chatting in their own circles. Then, their circle leaders led them to other circles to get to know and interact with people in those circles and see if there were any areas for cooperation.

It looked just like any other normal social gathering.

Zhou Yan was present at this banquet.

Normally, the host or the person who is to be the last to arrive at a banquet will wait until everyone has arrived before coming out. Some people will even deliberately arrive a little late to show their status and make others wait.

Zhou Yan didn't. Just eight minutes after the councilors and governors of Dawu Prefecture arrived, and estimating that it would be a while before everyone was present, exclamations came from the elevator area.

"Councilor Zhou has arrived!"

A large number of state legislators and capitalists walked out of the banquet hall and onto both sides of the passageway leading to the elevator.

A young man stepped out of the elevator.

Many people around looked on with envy. In this era, your birth basically determines who you will be for life. The children of capitalists are capitalists, the children of the poor are poor, and the awakened ones naturally have advantages that even capitalists cannot match.

Therefore, too many capitalists are willing to spend huge sums of money and use great favors to acquire a highly qualified awakened individual, but no capitalist can win over the true god.

Mayor Wei Youde of Luomen City was the first to step forward.

"Councilor Zhou, you've arrived a bit early."

Wei Youde walked up to Zhou Yan, extended his hand, and Zhou Yan grasped it. Lu

Wei Youde patted Zhou Yan on the shoulder. (Nine)

"But it's good that we arrived early; everyone can get things discussed and we can finish sooner." Ling

Wei Youde released Zhou Yan's hand and waved to the group of people.

Five people came up, Wei Youde introduced them.

“Associate Zhou, these are the state legislators and governor of the Great Western State, who will be our partners for agricultural products in the future.”

Zhou Yan reached out his hand to the governor of Da Xizhou, and the governor shook Zhou Yan's hand.

The governor said hurriedly.

“My name is Wang Caihua. Councilor Zhou can just call me Old Wang.”

Zhou Yan smiled.

"It's an honor to meet you, Lao Wang. I've heard of you before. Hope we can work together sometime in the future."

The governor of the Great Western State was very happy. He had heard so much about Zhou Yan that he could boast to his children and grandchildren, "Even the true god had heard so much about me back then," which would be very prestigious.

Wei Youde then introduced the other four state legislators and talked about future cooperation projects. He spoke in a very general and vague way. Zhou Yan listened and nodded, while shaking hands with the other legislators and saying some nice things.

Since I have no talent for speaking, I'll just say whatever sounds nice.

After Wei Youde finished speaking, Zhou Yan shook hands with everyone, and the congressmen from the Great Western State looked at Zhou Yan expectantly.

They're just putting down their status, waiting for Zhou Yan to give them a title so they can become Zhou Yan's people.

Zhou Yan immediately said.

"Now that we have business relations between Dongyang Prefecture and Daxi Prefecture, let's cooperate more in the future. If you have any troubles, you can come and mention them to us. When we have time, we can lend a hand."

The governor of the Great Western State shook hands with Zhou Yanzhong again.

"sure."

The second person they met was a capitalist in a suit and tie. This capitalist was over sixty years old, but his face was wrinkle-free, and he looked about forty years old. After shaking hands with Zhou Yan, Wei Youde introduced him.

“Councilor Zhou, this is Fang Xiaochun from Mei’an Prefecture. Fang’s Company is remarkable; it’s the most powerful engineering vehicle manufacturer in the industry.”

Fang Xiaochun said respectfully.

“Councilor Zhou, I would like to request that you invest in our company.”

Zhou Yan shook his head.

"This is not a matter for you to discuss with me. Talk to Mayor Wei instead."

Zhou Yan let go of her hand and walked towards the next batch.

Wei Youde shook his head at Fang Xiaochun, who looked somewhat embarrassed, and then took Zhou Yan to meet with state legislators from other states and capitalists from various places. He shook hands with each of them and went through the formalities one by one. Zhou Yan gave titles to those he could and refused those he could refuse.

The process took more than half an hour, until they arrived in front of a beautiful young woman wearing a white backless dress, who had dressed herself up in a very eye-catching way.

Wei Youde, who had been providing narration alongside Zhou Yan, immediately spoke up.

"Councilor Zhou, next I would like to introduce you to Ms. Enya, who is from Zhongzhou City and is the top live-streaming e-commerce influencer. Last time she did a live-streaming e-commerce, she directly increased the market value of a nearly bankrupt food processing plant fivefold."

Zhou Yan shook hands with the beautiful young woman.

The beautiful girl looked at Zhou Yan with deep affection. Zhou Yan understood why this beautiful girl was the top seller; her eyes were so watery and captivating.

Wei Youde continued speaking in Zhou Yan's ear.

"Ms. Enya came to our Dongyang State to promote local products through live streaming, and she also hopes that Councilor Zhou can join her in the live stream."

Zhou Yan narrowed his eyes.

The pretty girl opposite laughed.

“Councilor Zhou, this is the first time that Zhen Shen has done live-streaming e-commerce. If you join forces with me, I think we will make history.”

Just as Zhou Yan was about to refuse, he felt a sharp pain in his palm.

Zhou Yan quickly shook off the beautiful girl's hand and took several steps back.

Wei Youde, who was about to persuade Zhou Yan to do a live stream to bring in some extra revenue for their state, was taken aback. The capitalists and state legislators around them also looked puzzled.

Does Zhou Yan really hate live-streaming e-commerce that much?

They were speaking so politely, and you could refuse them, but to just wave their hand away is incredibly disrespectful.

Zhou Yan took a few steps back, raised his hand, and stared at his palm.

There was a tiny red dot in the palm of his hand, from which black tree-like patterns spread outwards. Zhou Yan used his omniscience to examine it and found it to be a deadly poison called "God's Fall." Even a true god would suffer a great loss of supernatural powers if poisoned by it.

Zhou Yan looked at Enya across from him with a strange expression.

"Bai Ze..."

Ms. Enya spoke nine times, but her voice was not female; it was a calm and composed male voice. "叁°≮→$∵

The surrounding capitalists and councilors all changed color. They were all seasoned veterans, and upon hearing Enya's voice, they knew that something must have happened to her.

Some of the quick-thinking individuals have already begun to retreat and find a way to escape.

Zhou Yan waved his hand, his pupils contracting and dilating several times, and after a while, he said in astonishment.

"Su Yinjun?"

To be honest, after Zhou Yan returned, he thought he might be targeted by Su Yinjun, who was lying in ambush. He had prepared for this by using his All-Seeing Eye and Omniscience. But when he faced Eun-ya, he did use his All-Seeing Eye to discover Su Yinjun. However, he was still shocked that Su Yinjun was actually dressed as a woman in order to take revenge.

And she's quite pretty, oh no, I should say sexy.

Enya reached out and peeled off the single ponytail wig from his head. This hair was truly amazing. Just now, when it was still in a single ponytail, Su Yijun looked like a gentle and tender girl. Now that the hair was off, he had a bit of a manly air about him.

"Bai Ze...you know..."

Su Yinjun's face was contorted; her once beautiful face now appeared somewhat unbearable to look at.

"Have I wanted to kill you for a long time?"

Even a fool could tell something was wrong as soon as those words were spoken.

Nearly a hundred people around, including Wei Youde, turned and ran without a word, heading straight for the emergency exit, not for the elevator.

None of those present were demigod-level awakeners. Faced with a group of assassins who dared to kill a true god, running away was the only option. If someone like Wei Youde, one of Zhou Yan's subordinates, dared to stay, Zhou Yan would think that those who stayed were probably mentally unstable.

Zhou Yan, who had been poisoned, thought for a moment, then felt a surge of amusement and spoke up.

"Su Jun, you could it be..."

Zhou Yan sniffed, his sorrowful expression appearing somewhat affected due to his poor acting skills.

Have you forgotten your servant?

Su Yinjun's expression changed drastically.

Zhou Yan's voice was the same voice of the Immaculate Heavenly Maiden who had captivated Su Yinjun to the point of losing her mind.

Even knowing that the Immaculate Celestial Maiden was Bai Ze in disguise, and that Bai Ze had been toying with her all along, Su Yinjun still couldn't help but be greatly shocked when she heard that voice.

When Bai Ze created the Immaculate Celestial Maiden to amuse Su Yinjun, her appearance, personality, and even her ability to serve others perfectly matched Su Yinjun's ideal of the opposite sex.

So even now, although Su Yinjun hates Bai Ze to the core, he still has deep feelings for Wugou Tiannu.

Now, this beast in front of me actually dares to speak to me in the voice of the Immaculate Celestial Maiden!

Zhou Yan continued speaking in the voice of the Immaculate Heavenly Maiden.

"I live at the head of the Yangtze River, you live at its tail. I think of you every day, but I cannot see you, though we both drink from the Yangtze River. When will this water cease flowing? When will this sorrow end? I only wish your heart were like mine, then my longing would not be in vain..."

This passage is from a love letter that Su Yinjun wrote to the Immaculate Heavenly Maiden. This wicked beast even read it aloud with great emotion in the voice of the Immaculate Heavenly Maiden.

Su Yinjun's eyes filled with tears, and she roared with excitement.

"You beast!"

Su Yinjun could feel the hot air coming out of her nostrils, hot enough to set her upper lip on fire.

"I'm going to skin you alive and pull out your tendons! I'll boil you alive in a cauldron of oil!"

A cold glint appeared behind Zhou Yan first, followed by a spear thrust out like a dragon.

Zhou Yan tilted his head, and a silver spear pierced through his earlobe, cutting off a few strands of his hair in the process.

Zhou Yan turned around and saw a golden-armored general carrying a spear.

Su Yinjun, who was opposite Zhou Yan, sneered.

"You beast, do you know what I've been doing all this time?"

Su Yinjun couldn't find Zhou Yan during this time, and she had no interest in catching the Nine-Colored Deer. Zhou Yan's family came to threaten him, so she could only suppress her thoughts and cultivate to increase her cultivation level. However, the more she cultivated, the more distressed Su Yinjun felt.

As an ancient divine beast, Bai Ze's strength must have increased much faster than his arduous cultivation.

The longer he endures, the greater the gap in combat power between Zhou Yan and him will become. At that point, forget about revenge; he'll even have trouble avoiding being toyed with by Bai Ze.

Feeling uneasy, Su Yinjun thought it over and over and finally decided to put aside her pride.

Putting aside Qi's dignity doesn't mean kidnapping Nine-Colored Deer, Su Xiaowan, Mu Chongba, or Zhou Yan's parents to force Zhou Lingyan to submit; rather, it means going to find teammates.

Find a group of teammates who also hate Bai Ze to the bone and wish they could tear him apart.

Then Su Yijun ran into trouble. The trouble wasn't that she couldn't find teammates, but that she had too many teammates.

However, Zhou Yan gave Su Yinjun plenty of time, enough for her to pick out her teammates one by one.

Now is the time for these chosen teammates to kill Zhou Yan!

Su Yinjun made a hand seal and chanted.
