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

Zhou Yan explained.

"A piece of intelligence may be interpreted in two different ways by different intelligence analysts. Just because I know a lot doesn't mean I can't get more information from you, senior. Um, senior, have you heard of Su Zhaojun, or the Qingqiu fox, or the traces of Bai Ze somewhere?"

Lin Anru thought for a moment, then after a few seconds, took out her phone and dialed a number. (+◎~)

Lin'an simply repeated what Zhou Yan had said.

"...That's the gist of the matter. Does anyone know anything about this?"

Did Lin'an come with a troop?

It's not entirely unexpected. Apart from true gods like Little Yama who still have some self-protection abilities, it's best for demigods like Lin Anru to travel together in the human forbidden zone. The complementarity of their supernatural powers can greatly increase their survival rate in dangerous areas.

"...Okay, I understand."

Lin Anru turned to Zhou Yan and said.

“My teammates told me that they didn’t know Bai Ze or Su Zhaojun, but they had seen many cranes and the corpses of divine beasts in a certain place. That place seemed to be the residence of demon immortals and demon gods, but it was too dangerous. No one who went there to collect the corpses ever came back.”

Zhou Yan hurriedly replied.

"Can you take me to see it?"

"Of course, junior, come with me."

Lin Anru walked in one direction, but it wasn't towards the depths of the Kunlun Immortal Palace; instead, it was heading towards the outer edge of the Kunlun Immortal Palace.

Of course, the outer side doesn't mean it's not an important place. Houtu Niangniang's Houde Palace is located on the outer edge, so much so that Zhou Yan, who was besieged by the gods, found Houde Palace after running only a few steps and received Houtu Niangniang's help.

Zhou Yan followed Lin Anru for a few steps when Little Yama suddenly sent a telepathic message to Zhou Yan, entering a secret passage.

"This child seems to really like you."

Zhou Yan remained silent.

Little Yama sent another message via telepathy.

"Look next to the girl in front of you, Sister Si. She's secretly watching you with a misty spray, but she's doing a really good job of hiding it."

In front.

Lin Anru walked ahead, but after only a few steps, she wanted to turn around and look at Zhou Yan. However, the problem was that she couldn't find a topic to talk about with him. Lin Anru wasn't a chatterbox, and she could force herself to find a topic even if she didn't have one.

To avoid embarrassment, Lin Anru could only remain silent, but secretly, she controlled the surrounding water vapor, some of which condensed into water droplets. Relying on the reflection of the water droplets, Lin Anru saw Zhou Yan and Xiao Yanjun behind her.

To be honest, Lin'an was a little afraid that Zhou Yan had gone astray.

You should know that Zhou Yan is not with Jiu Feng now, but with a little girl by his side. Lin Anru is afraid that after Zhou Yan becomes a true god and his power is unchecked, he will start to do things that are not allowed by law and morality in order to seek immoral pleasure.

However, judging from the reflection of the water droplets, the relationship between Zhou Yan and Xiao Yanjun did not seem to be that complicated, and Zhou Yan did not have any strange body odor.

Things shouldn't have developed to the point of disappointment. The question is, why did Zhou Yan bring a little girl with him to Kunlun Immortal Palace?

Aren't you afraid Jiu Feng will get jealous?

But this is good, if I can find an opportunity to be alone with Zhou Yan...

Lin Anru recalled a dream in her mind. In the dream, she had lived for three hundred years in a world that had lost the sun. During these three hundred years, Lin Anru thought a lot, forgot a lot, and gained a lot.

Only some regrets remain, like the slow, agonizing torture of being sliced ​​apart night after night.

Lin'an wanted to confess her feelings to Zhou Yan, but due to her youthful impetuosity and the vast difference in their social status, she couldn't bring herself to say it.

Lin Anru never really understood what a "simp" was. In a young girl's eyes, dignity was definitely more important than love.

You don't even treat yourself like a human being, yet you expect others to treat you like one?

Love gained through licking is nothing more than the love between a master and a dog.

Lin'an was filled with ambition, so she would not reveal her love before she became a true god.

Yes, lovers cannot be on different levels.

Lin Anru composed herself and gave up on saying more to Zhou Yan. However, she still carefully observed her junior classmate whom she hadn't seen in a long time, using the reflection of the water droplets as a guide.

Zhou Yan hadn't lost weight, but his expression had become much more serious. He had lost the arrogance he once had, the kind that would beat anyone who dared to defy him and even boast in front of Zhuque.

His physique hasn't changed; he doesn't have the look of being all muscle. Also, he seems to have grown taller.

The food must have been good.

It's the girl next to Zhou Yan...

Lin Anru has seen many people, but when she first met the little guy, Xiao Yanjun, who was by Zhou Yan's side, she didn't think much of him. But after watching him for a while, she found that he had a calm and composed demeanor in his every move.

This kind of magnanimity can only be cultivated by those who have been in a high position for a long time.

This is a good sign, indicating that the little guy next to Zhou Yan isn't with him for any other reason; it's very likely...

Lin'an suddenly"】4々∞Dad∴俬糁∝'叁〉｜崚武oS：Looking diagonally opposite.

The place was a ruin, but a dim shadow hung over it.

They are awakened beings...

In the human forbidden zone, there is often a group of people lying in ambush, waiting for other awakened teams to return with their loot, or for them to rob others after suffering heavy losses but receiving extensive protection.

This behavior was despised by countless awakened groups, but even someone as proud as Lin'an had to admit that this double-crossing not only avoided dangerous places but also brought in a lot of income.

Those members of the awakened group with slightly weaker moral values ​​are basically unable to resist the temptation to rob.

Zhou Yan, who was behind, followed Lin Anru's gaze and then sneered.

Lin Anru responded with a faint smile.

"They really dared to block the way of a true god."

Zhou Yan said it as a matter of course.

“They may not know me; they might just see us as another group of awakened individuals that you can find anywhere.”

Zhou Yan had once joined a group where a Hatsune Miku fanatic said to the others, "Is there anyone in this world who doesn't like Hatsune Miku?"

There are also some brainless fans of boy bands who, when promoting their idols, ask Zhou Yan if he has seen their idols' movies or something. Their idols have such a big influence that the whole country should know who their idols are.

In fact, Zhou Yan, who was young at the time and had not yet seen some of the works that influenced his life, really did not know what idols or Hatsune Miku were.

So don't be fooled by the hype and viral success of certain events; they may seem trivial, but the truth is, they may not know.

What many groups consider common sense is actually unfamiliar to other groups.

After walking about five kilometers, Lin Anru led Zhou Yan to a pile of ruins.

The ruins were clearly separated from the surrounding area by a road a hundred meters wide. There should have been thirty-two palaces in the center of the road, but now half of them had collapsed and the other half were teetering on the brink of collapse. However, the two palaces in the very center were surrounded by auspicious light, which made it clear that they were no ordinary place.

But it is precisely in this extraordinary place that every awakened one who enters dies.

"arrive."

Lin'an is like standing in front of a ruin. This ruin has been dug up, and its shape is that it is surrounded by a circle of piles and has a hollow center.

Several hundred years is not enough time for the awakened ones to grow to the point where they can contend with the true gods of the Western Heavenly Gate, but it is enough time for them to plunder most of the ruins.

Lin'an Ruo Sao swept through the ruins and sighed inwardly.

When Kunlun Immortal Palace first appeared, almost everyone who came would leave empty-handed. Now, the treasures that could be easily found have all been looted.

“That place is the temple I was talking about, the one with celestial birds and mythical beasts.”

8 Lin'an pointed to a large hall not far away, enveloped in spiritual light and exuding an ethereal aura, named "Juhua Hall".

Zhou Yan peered through the half-open door and saw the corpses of some immortal birds and spirit beasts lying inside. However, the layers of protective barriers outside clearly displayed the four large characters "Keep Out, Living People Not Allowed".

Qi: "I can try to go in."

As soon as Lu Zhouyan spoke, he clearly felt several dangerous auras targeting him from the surrounding area.

The little Yama King beside him chuckled.

"They're all waiting to pick up the corpses."

The surrounding group of awakened individuals clearly believed that Zhou Yan was doomed after saying he was going to the Juhua Palace, and they were just waiting for something to happen to him so they could pick up his body.

Of course, many people in the surrounding group also noticed that Zhou Yan looked strange, as he seemed to resemble a certain thief who was very good at fighting.

Then these people, embodying the spirit of "it's none of my business whether you live or die, and rivals are enemies," became tight-lipped after sensing the danger and secretly ran away without giving a single warning, leaving behind a group of guys who still couldn't see Zhou Yan's problem, standing there dumbfounded, ready to collect the body.

Lin Anru looked at Zhou Yan with some unease.

Zhou Yan shook his head.

"It's alright. Coming back to this place is like coming back to my hometown. It's relaxing, very relaxing."

Little Yama's hometown is the Abyss Underworld, and Chi You's hometown is the Ten Thousand Miao Mountains. In these places, these true gods are not only safe from danger, but also receive great benefits from favorable timing and location.

As for Zhou Yan, although the Heavenly Court is Bai Ze's hometown, it seems that the other people in this hometown don't really welcome Bai Ze.

Of course, as long as you don't encounter these unwelcome true gods, there should be no danger.

Zhou Yan took a few steps and, using the technique of shrinking the distance to an inch, arrived in front of the Juhua Palace.

Lightning began to appear, but it automatically avoided Zhou Yan before striking him. Zhou Yan walked into the Juhua Palace with an air of nonchalance.

As Xiao Yanjun appeared in Lin'an, a large number of eyes from the surrounding area gathered around him.

Little Yama, Lin'an, saw Zhou Yan enter unharmed, and his expression remained relatively calm. However, the Awakened Ones lurking in the shadows around them were in an uproar, with subtle noises coming from many places.

Since the Kunlun Immortal Palace opened, this is the first time someone has been able to enter the Juhua Hall unscathed. This is because those who remained did not recognize Zhou Yan and could not find out who Zhou Yan was. A group of awakened individuals began to speculate that Zhou Yan might have some secret treasure or some means to pass through the surrounding restrictions.

This is extraordinary. The restrictions of Kunlun Immortal Palace are so powerful that even true gods would be utterly annihilated. The awakened beings in the surrounding area have tried for hundreds of years but have not been able to overcome the strength of the restrictions. As a result, places protected by restrictions remain untouched and have never been plundered.

Therefore, having a secret treasure that allows passage is equivalent to holding a mountain of gold in one's hand.

Wu, who was waiting outside the Juhua Palace, looked around and whispered to Lin Anru.

Qi: "Miss, how about..."

Lu Lin'an interrupted Little Yama's words.

Lu said, "If anything happens later, stay close to me, I'll protect you."

The Third Little Yama: "..."

A minute later, Zhou Yan walked out of the Juhua Palace. The commotion around him grew louder. Zhou Yan could clearly feel an extremely strong malice emanating from several ruins around him, enveloping him. However, this malice was merely hidden and did not attack him.

The fourth reason was that Zhou Yan's unharmed appearance ultimately made those around him hesitant to make a move.

Er Zhouyan returned to Xiao Yanjun and Lin Anru in a few steps.

Lin'an was the first to speak.

"How's it inside?"

Zhou Yan sighed.

"What else could be inside? Just a pile of corpses, nothing else."

Perhaps it's because the celestial birds and mythical beasts are different; the corpses inside have been dead for hundreds of years, yet there's no sign of decay.

However, the fact that they weren't rotten was useless. Zhou Yan scanned the area but couldn't find any connection between the corpses of these immortal birds and beasts and Bai Ze or Su Zhaojun.

A corpse is just a corpse.

Lin'an was somewhat disappointed.

Zhou Yan reassured him.

Don't be disappointed.

Zhou Yan pointed to himself.

Do you know who I am?

Zhou Yan straightened his chest.

"I am Bai Ze! The chief of auspicious beasts, one of the luckiest awakeners in the world."

"So it's definitely not a coincidence that I met Senior Sister Lin as soon as I arrived at Kunlun Immortal Palace; it's more like God was showing me the way!"

Lin'an was taken aback.

"Oh, really?"

Zhou Yan gave a thumbs-up.

"Of course! Senior, you are my lucky charm! It's destiny!"

Zhou Yan looked at another courtyard, "Qingliu Courtyard," which was surrounded by auspicious light next to the Juhua Hall.
