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

Zhou Yan said loudly.

"Did you know that Gao Qiu was actually even more promiscuous than his son? He especially enjoyed toying with girls around ten years old?"

Lin Chong opened his mouth slightly in surprise.

Children are a red line everywhere. If Gao Qiu really did that, and I have evidence, I can use that to threaten Gao Qiu and make him let me go. As a member of parliament, don't mess with a lowly soldier like me.

Zhou Yan circled around Lin Chong. (Er)

“It wasn’t just about playing with children; Gao Qiu also accepted bribes in private, engaged in various power-for-money transactions, gained followers, and embezzled public funds. I knew all of these things.”

Zhou Yan's voice seemed to possess a kind of magic; every word spoken by this short man was like a sword piercing Lin Chong's heart again and again, causing Lin Chong to tremble uncontrollably.

"With these things, I can guarantee..."

"After you return to Zhongzhou City, Gao Qiu will restrain his son and prevent him from seeking revenge against you!"

Lin Chong clenched his hands on either side of his trouser legs. He had to admit that Zhou Yan's words were very pleasant to hear, so pleasant that they even moved him.

"and then?"

Lin Chong put his spear away.

"What's the price?" Hissed.

We're all adults; we should all believe that there's no such thing as a free lunch. Zhou Yan's promise is so grand; he must have something he wants to achieve himself.

Zhou Yan clapped behind Lin Chong.

"Good, good, good, as expected of an adult."

"We all know that nothing in this world is free. What I need you to do for me is very simple..."

"Ok?"

Before Zhou Yan could finish speaking, his head suddenly turned in one direction.

Lin Chong asked, puzzled.

"what happened?"

Zhou Yan frowned.

"Lin Chong, did you have a very powerful friend in the past, someone you probably couldn't beat, who always fawned over Gao Yanei?"

Lin Chong thought for a moment and nodded.

"Yes, his name is Lu Qian."

Zhou Yan said loudly.

"Lu Qian, come out. I've already noticed you."

With no reaction from those around him, Zhou Yan picked up a stone from the ground and threw it in one direction.

With a sigh, a middle-aged woman emerged from the corner.

This beautiful woman was a bit older than Lin Chong, but her alluring charm was far stronger than Lin Chong's, so much so that Zhou Yan was reminded of a young married woman version of Little Yama.

"The Six-Eared Macaque?"

The young woman opposite, Lu Qian, looked at Zhou Yan curiously.

Zhou Yan silently hid behind Lin Chong. This Lu Qian was a demon-level awakened being, and his awakening level was very high; he was the kind of person who could kill Zhou Yan with a single slap.

Lin Chong looked at Lu Qian, who emerged from the corner, with surprise.

"Old Lu, what's wrong with you...?"

Zhou Yan whispered behind Lin Chong.

"Don't overthink it. These eight Lu Qians are also among those who betrayed you. She's here now, probably to kill you!"

The young woman, Lu Qian, turned around and stared at Zhou Yan.

"The Six-Eared Macaque truly lives up to its name."

The young woman, Lu Qian, had a slight upturn at the corners of her mouth, her face full of alluring ambiguity. This woman seemed to know how to use her advantages. With just that smile, someone with less self-control would probably be bewitched and unable to resist.

But Zhou Yan simply gave the middle finger.

What a joke! Mara has seen it all; the allure of human beauties is nothing but child's play.

Lin Chong looked at Lu Qian in surprise.

"Old Lu, you...you're going to kill me?"

Lu Qian sighed.

"I'm just taking sides, Lin Chong. Are you out of your mind? Gao Yanei just wants to sleep with you, right? Just close your eyes and lie down on the bed, isn't that enough?"

Lin Chong said angrily.

Why should I spread my legs in front of someone I find disgusting?!

Lu Qian drew a soft sword from his waist.

"So after you did that, Congressman Gao contacted me and asked me to come over."

Lu Qian looked troubled.

"I'll kill you..."

Zhou Yan peeked out from behind Lin Chong and said disdainfully.

"Stop talking nonsense. Lin Chong offended Gao Qiu. You only came to kill Lin Chong to distance yourself from him and show your loyalty to your master, Gao Qiu! What, is it so hard to admit that you are ungrateful and a despicable person?"

Lu Qian looked at Zhou Yan, wanting to say something, but ultimately kept her mouth shut.

If Zhou Yan is the Six-Eared Macaque, then this person's value is much higher, as SosUo:珥. ∨4↓鈴缌杌』°肆If he can capture the Six-Eared Macaque and not only hand him over to Gao Qiu, but also capture him himself, relying on the Six-Eared Macaque's intelligence capabilities, Lu Qian can swear that in the future, not only will it be difficult for him to become a member of parliament, but even becoming president would not be difficult.

Even if a mythical beast of the intelligence type lacks combat power, its intelligence-gathering abilities are of immense value.

Lin Chong, completely failing to understand the thoughts of his former friend, asked in despair.

"Lu Qian, you...you didn't come here to kill me, did you?"

"We're friends, right?"

Lu Qian turned to look at Lin Chong.

"From the moment you injured Gao Yanei, we parted ways, Lin Chong. Think about it carefully. Are you really that valuable? You can't even stand it up for someone to fire a cannon into you?"

"You're so indecisive even when you sleep with someone?"

A woman's identity is meant to be used; Lu Qian couldn't understand why Lin Chong valued his chastity so much.

This has led to the current situation.

Lin Chong: "..."

This woman, who had faced countless perilous situations alone and survived countless life-or-death crises without flinching, was now filled with sorrow and bewilderment.

Combat:

Chapter 697 Chapter 25 Exoneration

When he was demoted to this godforsaken city, Lin Chong still fantasized that he could make a name for himself with his talent and then return to Zhongzhou City in a grand manner.

Lin Chong thought he could return to his former life, but looking at the attitude of his former close friend Lu Qian, Lin Chong realized in bewilderment that from the moment he offended Gao Yanei, all his past relationships seemed to have changed.

Starting with Lu Qian, everyone became a stranger, including myself...

A white light flashed before Lin Chong's eyes.

Behind the bewildered Lin Chong, Zhou Yan ran and shouted.

"They're going to kill you! Don't just stand there!"

A flash of spear light appeared in Lin Chong's hand, clashing with Lu Qian's longsword.

After a crisp clang, a huge explosion emanated from the point where the gun and sword clashed.

Lu Qian sneered, and the long sword in his hand transformed into countless sword lights that enveloped Lin Chong. As a highly awakened demon-level awakener, each sword light in Lu Qian's hand could slice through a tank, and each sword aura could radiate within five meters.

Lin Chong calmly swung the spear in his hand.

When mature firearms appeared in history, cold weapons gradually faded from the stage. But for ordinary people, such as Lin Chong and Lu Qian, who were awakened, the spears and swords in their hands were the things that could best enhance their combat power.

Lin Chong once defeated an entire mechanized infantry regiment along with its tank corps with just a long spear.

The same applies to Lu Qian; in fact, Lu Qian's combat prowess surpasses that of Lin Chong in terms of mastery of cold weapons.

This is also why Lu Qian was approached by Gao Yanei, who asked him to deal with Lin Chong.

That's right, it wasn't Gao Qiu who came to kill Lin Chong, but Gao Yanei, who had already been beaten up. However, it's more appropriate to use Gao Qiu's name, since Gao Yanei, this second-generation official, was pretty useless. Using Gao Qiu's name is less shameful.

"Why!"

Lin Chong, holding a long spear, had an angry expression on his face.

"Old Lu, because of Gao Qiu, you're severing ties with me and disowning me... forget about being friends with me!"

With the aid of his mastered internal energy, Lin Chong's spear continuously emitted a series of ear-piercing dragon roars, with storms and fierce air currents flowing between them.

It's no exaggeration to say that under the roar of the dragon, a normal person would either be grazed or turned into a blood mist after being hit three times, but Lu Qian, protected by sword energy, effortlessly met Lin Chong's spear one by one.

In the past, Lu Qian had received Lin Chong's spear techniques countless times. Compared to the past, Lin Chong was now restless and his mind was not at peace, and his movements were full of flaws.

Lin Chong may not have lost his physical strength or his skills, but due to his mentality, his fighting ability is far less than before.

This was a good thing. Lu Qian kept gathering his energy, and streaks of sword energy, each tens of meters long, radiated outwards. Wherever they passed, the ground cracked and trees snapped, with nothing able to stop them.

Besides sound.

A young, still somewhat immature voice came out.

"Lu Qian! You dared to kill a nine-year-old girl just to curry favor with Gao Qiu! Are you even human?!"

Then came an even more childish little girl's voice.

"Sister, no!"

Lu Qian was greatly shocked, and his swordplay slowed down.

Lin Chong, who had been suppressed by Lu Qian, suddenly brightened up. Lin Chong was indeed in a bad state because of many chaotic thoughts in his mind, but that did not mean that Lin Chong was completely stupid. Seeing his old friend showing a flaw, Lin Chong raised his spear without hesitation.

The spear shot out like a dragon, its head aimed at Lu Qian.

Lu Qian reacted a beat too slow, barely managing to block Lin Chong's spearhead with his sword. But just as the spear and sword clashed, a mocking voice rang out.

"You woman, always so high and mighty, now you're showing such an embarrassing side? Do you like my toes?"

Lin Chong looked at Lu Qian in surprise. Lu Qian's face was as red as water. As enough emotions welled up, the strength in Lu Qian's hand holding the sword naturally weakened.

Lin Chong parried Lu Qian's longsword with little effort, and the tip of his spear was pressed against Lu Qian's throat. Lu Qian helplessly turned to leave, but inexplicably, as if he had seen through Lu Qian's retreat route in advance, Lin Chong's spear struck several times in the void, each point being a fatal spot that Lu Qian could not dodge as he retreated.

Lu Qian felt a chill run down his spine and didn't know how to retreat for a moment. Just then, that deadly voice came again, this time it was Lu Qian's own voice.

"Zhao Changxin, you shouldn't have tried to take the captain's position from me."

Lin Chong shouted in disbelief.

"You killed Zhao Changxin! He was your instructor, and he saved your life several times!?"

Zhao Changxin was Lu Qian's former superior. When Lin Chong and Lu Qian were still new recruits, this gentle superior took care of them many times.

Lu Qian's expression changed several times. This guy, who kept saying that Lin Chong was too arrogant, finally couldn't bear the torment of his conscience after being exposed a few times by Zhou Yan, who was hiding in the shadows. He became quite flustered.

This clumsy movement resulted in Lin Chong's spear piercing two holes through his chest.

Lu Qian was an old fighter. Seeing that he was injured and at a disadvantage in his fight with Lin Chong, and with Zhou Yan hiding in the shadows and possessing subtle supernatural abilities, Lu Qian gritted his teeth, transformed into a gust of wind, and ran away.

Lin Chong wanted to give chase, but Zhou Yan emerged from a corner.

"Don't chase after him. If you run away, I won't be able to keep up. If you get hurt by Lu Qian, I won't be able to help you."

Lin Chong turned around, his face as deep and somber as the sea.

At this moment, Lin Chong finally realized that he could never go back to the way things were before.

……

Scattered far away.

Lu Qian, who quickly widened the distance with his leaping movements, occasionally looked back but did not notice that Lin Chong was following.

This is not hard to understand. It is said that a desperate army will surely win. If Lin Chong had pushed her too far, she would have traded her life for his. Now that Lin Chong has let her go, she has suffered no loss and has also saved her life. How wonderful!
