"Okay, I'll save you."
Yang Erlang, who had been watching the battle the whole time, came over.
Jinhe smiled with relief, but the next second, his smile froze on his face.
With a soft "pfft!"
Yang Erlang pierced his abdomen with a single stroke.
Jinhe felt a sudden, sharp pain in his kidneys and vomited a large amount of blood.
The shadow of death loomed over him, and his face was filled with disbelief: "Why? You wouldn't save me, fine, but why kill me? I, Jinhe, have never offended you, have I?"
Yang Erlang said quite frankly, "I'm sorry, killing you was not a spur-of-the-moment decision, but a premeditated plan."
"Premeditated?"
"Who did you conspire with?"
"Dawn Society - Zhang Hao".
"???"
Upon hearing this, Jinhe...
He was so angry that he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Then, with a resentful expression, he collapsed to the ground and died. That's how a Level 6 Awakened One died.
In fact.
Jinhe's fighting strength was originally quite strong.
He was at least on the same level as Lao Wu, but unfortunately, his opening remarks angered the monkey, who immediately unleashed his ultimate move.
With the blessing of the Heavenly Law and Earthly Manifestation, an ordinary Level 6 Awakened would be dead beyond any chance of survival from this blow.
Fortunately, Jinhe is an awakened member of the flesh system.
But it was defeated in a single move, which is enough to show how powerful the monkey was.
But seeing Yang Erlang's actions...
Sun Aotian was immediately annoyed: "Intentionally stealing kills? When did I, Old Sun, ever say that you could interfere in my battle?"
"State your name before speaking to someone."
"Sun Aotian!"
"Yang Erlang!"
"Why do I find you increasingly unpleasant to look at?"
"Me too. You're so rude, you monkey. It was Chairman Zhang who ordered me to kill Jinhe. What does it have to do with you? Do you have the right to talk back?" Yang Erlang said disdainfully.
"Zhang the monster ordered you to kill him? How come I didn't know?"
"Stupid monkey."
"You fucking idiot! You're the first person who dares to curse me like that. I'm furious. Looks like I'll have to beat you up."
How could Sun Aotian stand this insult?
Even when his master scolded him normally, it was usually something like "mischievous monkey" or "wicked disciple." But this guy just blurted out "idiot monkey."
This is such an insult to the dignity of the Monkey King!
This is intolerable!
Even a monkey wouldn't tolerate such behavior!
Sun Aotian rushed over.
He swung the stick at it, but Yang Erlang easily blocked it.
Clang! Clang!
The two kept crossing paths.
The golden cudgel and the three-pointed double-edged sword clashed repeatedly, producing a violent metallic clang, yet Yang Erlang was not at all at a disadvantage.
This drew stares from everyone present.
"This Yang Erlang is quite strong, isn't he? Although the monkey is often beaten by the guild leader, there are very few people in our Dawn Guild who can defeat him. He's not simple," Ye Tianfan said in surprise.
“It’s more than just simple; Yang Erlang seems to be handling it with ease, without even a hint of dodging. This guy’s physical strength is also remarkable, perhaps even surpassing it,” Zhao Wu said.
"Is that so? But if it weren't for dual-elemental abilities, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to beat the monkey."
Ye Tianfan was about to say something.
Then the monkey couldn't hold back any longer and decisively used its mental slowing technique.
"Even if your tanky build is strong, I, Old Sun, have a mental build to counter you. What do you have to fight me with? Defeat me!!"
Sun Aotian's eyes flashed with golden light.
Under the powerful mental invasion, Yang Erlang fell into a dazed state.
Just as they were about to deliver the decisive blow.
A huge black dog rushed over, its eyes gleaming with black light, which miraculously restored Yang Erlang's senses.
Yang Erlang rode on the black dog.
Together with the dog, they suppressed the monkey.
Sun Aotian was extremely frustrated.
This guy also has a dog?
And it's a mentalist type?
What's with this strong sense of déjà vu?
It seems so familiar!
I remember now.
It seems I was also targeted like this when I sparred with Zhang the Monster back then?
That crow is immune to mental attacks, which makes it impossible for me to defeat Zhang the monster. How can you, a dog, do the same?
And their combat strength is not weak?
Sun Aotian was extremely unconvinced: "What kind of skill is it to fight two against one? You're cheating! If you're so capable, let's have a one-on-one fight!"
"My dog and I are one, how is that considered cheating?"
"..."
It looked like they were about to start arguing again.
Zhang Hao stepped forward to stop them: "Alright, that's enough of the commotion. I did ask Yang Erlang to make the move just now. The most important thing now is to integrate Jinhemen. We can talk about other things later."
"All right."
"Hmph, I'll fight you again next time, you cheater."
Sun Aotian glared at Yang Erlang.
Yang Erlang didn't bother with it. He watched as the remaining members of Jinhemen were incorporated into the army, and the group returned to Tianlei Mountain.
Everyone was very curious.
When exactly did the chairman manage to get Yang Erlang to defect?
But Zhang Hao gave an ambiguous answer and then met privately with Yang Erlang at the villa.
Yang Erlang sat on the sofa.
His expression was calm, but his heart was not so peaceful.
"Would you like some tea?" Zhang Hao asked.
"No, thank you."
Yang Erlang took a deep breath and said, "Chairman Zhang, I want to know if the message you passed on to me an hour ago was serious? Are you sure—you can resolve my predicament?"
"Of course I'm serious," Zhang Hao nodded.
"But……"
Yang Erlang was still somewhat suspicious: "How did you know about the changes that happened to me? Apart from Gouzi, I have never shown it to any outsiders. Are you deliberately lying to me?"
"Lie to you? Why would I need to?"
Zhang Hao glanced at his forehead and said indifferently, "That thing between your eyebrows isn't your original product. It's been constantly eroding your body, causing you unbearable suffering."
"Sooner or later, you will no longer be you, to be precise... you will no longer be human. You, Yang Erlang, are in dire straits right now, what is there for me to lie to?"
"!!!"
These words were spoken.
Yang Erlang was immediately shocked.
The way he looked at Zhang Hao changed. He took a deep breath and said, "Please save me, Chairman Zhang. As long as you help me get rid of it, I am willing to go through fire and water for you."
"Don't rush into that. Let me see what's between your eyebrows."
"..."
Yang Erlang seemed a little worried.
I glanced around, unsure whether to take off my headband.
"Don't worry, I'm all alone here. I've sent everyone else away, so no one will see me."
"Okay, then I'll pick it."
Yang Erlang raised his hand.
She slowly removed the silver headband from her forehead, revealing her forehead.
What was visible on the forehead was not a simple decoration, but a slit about five centimeters wide, which was slightly open.
A purple eyeball protrudes from inside.
Black lines covered the area around the eyeballs, and several blood vessels had turned black; these were unique characteristics of zombies.
And this eyeball is certainly not from a human.
Instead—a one-eyed zombie!
