“This guy is such a waste of good looks.”
Wuzzy Beard couldn’t help but give a bitter smile as he watched the playback of Chen Huaian’s live stream.
If he had Chen Huaian’s looks, he would never settle for being a comedic blogger.
What kind of operation is it to be slammed by a strawberry bear?
And that target that can never be stood up, is it for show?
If he looked like Chen Huaian, he could have become a star in no time. Definitely more promising than being a comedic host.
The phone rang, and Wuzzy Beard picked it up. An anxious voice came through: “Director Luo, something’s happened. Governor Li Changbai is seriously injured, just brought down from the foot of Longhushan.”
“What?!” Wuzzy Beard’s expression changed slightly. “I’ll be right there.”
Li Changbai was the only General Level of the Demon-Slaying Division in Province C.
For him to be injured, it means the evil spirit hidden in Longhushan must have reached at least the General Level.
By the time they arrived at the emergency medical point near Longhushan, it was quite late.
When Wuzzy Beard saw Li Changbai, this General Level figure had already regained consciousness, but his condition was poor. His originally black hair was now streaked with white, and his face was slack, looking like an old man in his sixties or seventies—his life seemed to have regressed by decades.
“Director Luo, I heard you’ve been promoted to Class A Soldier. Congratulations.”
Li Changbai raised his murky eyes and gave a weary smile.
“It’s all luck,” Wuzzy Beard said politely, then shifted the conversation to Longhushan: “What’s happening inside Longhushan? Can it still be controlled?”
Li Changbai stared at Wuzzy Beard and smiled: “As expected of Director Luo, always focused on work… I called you here to tell you some things. The black coffin inside Longhushan has completely emerged, and the entity it contains is definitely stronger than General Level. But this time, I wasn’t hurt by the entity in the black coffin; it was someone else.”
Wuzzy Beard sat down next to Li Changbai, his expression turning serious.
“I call them the Guardians of the Coffin. There are four of them, wearing white masks with the characters ‘Chimei Wangliang’ written on them. After defeating Chimei, I was nearly drained. Originally, I planned to withdraw temporarily, recover, and return to eliminate Wangliang. But this evil spirit followed me relentlessly and attacked when I was about to leave and let my guard down…”
Li Changbai struggled to breathe and coughed up several mouthfuls of dark blood.
Wuzzy Beard was about to call for medical staff, but Li Changbai grabbed his hand: “Sit and listen. I don’t have much time left. Wangliang is robbing me of my life, even Xiang Xiaoyuan can’t save me.”
“Governor Li, you…” Wuzzy Beard looked helplessly at the governor on the bed.
He never imagined that coming here meant seeing the governor for the last time.
Li Changbai waved his hand, staring intently at Wuzzy Beard, and squeezed his hand tightly: “Chimei Wangliang aims to revive the evil spirit in the black coffin. Once that thing revives, the entire Province C will suffer. I’ve heard of your abilities. You possess the ability to turn cancer cells into monsters and don’t have a concept of lifespan. You’re the only one who isn’t afraid of Wangliang… Luo Haisheng, you, go and kill Wangliang!”
“Governor, where is Wangliang? Is it still in Longhushan?” Wuzzy Beard’s gaze turned cold as he took a deep breath. “Rest assured, as long as Wangliang is alive, I will definitely help you kill it!”
Li Changbai released his grip and took out a black compass, pressing it into Wuzzy Beard’s hand.
At the center of the compass was a striking red character ‘Liu’.
“This is the Lin Family’s Soul-Chasing Compass. With it, you can find Wangliang.”
“Right.” Li Changbai stretched out his bony hand and pressed it on Wuzzy Beard’s shoulder. “Do it not for me, but for Heavenly Abode, for Province C, for… Da Xia.”
“Every time we kill an evil spirit, every time we slay a monster, people like us who are unfortunate will decrease by one percent…” Li Changbai looked at the ceiling, his voice growing softer.
By the time Wuzzy Beard snapped back to reality.
This General Level figure was already lifeless.
He clenched the compass tightly, stunned for a long while, closed Li Changbai’s eyes, and left the emergency medical point.
It’s time,
to kill the evil spirits.
…
…
“Money, I need money! Who can give me money!”
“Money! Money from all directions!!!”
Sighing, Ba Ji looked at Chen Huaian wailing on the sofa: “Ah, it’s good that the boss often goes crazy. This indicates that his craziness is a stable mental characteristic and cannot be considered a sign of impending memory recovery. In this way, I still have more time to prepare.”
Thinking this, Ba Ji fed another drop of blood to Xiao Qing.
“Fish, quickly advance your cultivation level, follow the boss’s requirements, and make those two beautiful legs. Then our days will be more comfortable.”
Xiao Qing obediently nodded.
Under normal circumstances, she would need to practice for a long time to transform.
But since the boss is so urgent, and Boss Cat is urging…
She already had a relatively mature plan.
That is—partial transformation!
That is, first partially transforming her body, although this would suppress some of her strength.
However, living under the same roof with the boss and Boss Cat, it seems there is no need for her to act.
…
At the same time.
Outside the thick alloy door of the Zero Containment Room.
In the dark corridor, the flickering lights.
Two Demon-Slaying Masters stood at the door, peering around.
As a cold wind blew past, both shivered uncontrollably.
“This… This is the Zero Containment Room, the door is really thick…”
“That’s right, they say it contains the strongest containment object in Province C, KSC-0, nicknamed ‘Tyrant.’ It directly suppressed KSC-01 and KSC-02 upon entering the containment facility. Such terrifying destructive power definitely requires a reinforced protective door. By the way, can we ask this Tyrant for help? Don’t punch us to death.”
“Um, it’s said that Tyrant’s emotions are relatively stable, as long as Tumor Dragon doesn’t come out, he’s like a normal man. But his personality seems quite cold. Maybe we should ask first?”
Clank!
The metal panel on the alloy door slid upward.
A handsome half-face and excited eyes appeared.
The two Demon-Slaying Masters were startled, immediately stepping back several steps, trembling against the wall.
“Hello Tyrant, goodbye Tyrant!”
“We didn’t mean to offend, we didn’t mean to offend!”
“Halt—!!!” Chen Huaian bared his teeth and roared. Seeing their bodies freeze, his fierce expression softened, and he gave a benevolent smile: “Do you have money? No matter what you want from me, as long as you have money, everything is negotiable! Hehehe!”
The two Demon-Slaying Masters exchanged glances, each forcing a flattering smile.
“Yes, we do!”
“As long as Lord Tyrant is willing to help, we will give you all the rewards from our mission and the subsequent sales of materials!”
