Trinity Traitor: From One Person to the Other

Chapter 928 Divine Battle
"I'll just say it."

After a brief period of probing and covert questioning among the temporary workers, Zhang Chulan was the first to reveal his true intentions.

He didn't like to play his cards openly. If he could, he would prefer to be like He Songling, pretending to be deaf and dumb, talking about other things, and going around in circles.

But there was nothing he could do; among everyone present, only he was different. Only Zhang Chulan, besides learning of the company's upper management's decision, also brought with him the decision of a deity.

"Gentlemen, you all probably already know the real purpose of this trip to Biyou Village."

“Yes, it’s obvious.” Xiao Zizai nodded and pushed up his glasses.

"What is it? What is it?" Gao Erzhuang asked naively in the WeChat group.

"Nominally, it's about hunting down the defector temporary worker Chen Duo. But in reality, Chen Duo is just a small fry. No matter how strong she is or how strange her methods are, she's still just one person. The company can handle her no matter what."

Wang Zhenqiu chuckled softly, "What they really want to deal with is this 'new interceptor' that can create superhumans at will. Compared to violating population limits and social stability, Chen Duo is nothing."

"Everyone, Chen Duo is truly a pitiful person. I implore you all, if you can avoid killing her, please do so." Old Meng, the temporary worker who had personally led the attack on the Medicine Immortal Society, said tremblingly. He was also the one among them who sympathized most with Chen Duo.

"Whether or not to kill her depends on her own choice." Black Pipe remained noncommittal. "Our real mission is the most troublesome one. We have to deal with a group of completely innocent people. This time, we are the villains."

"I'm afraid it's more than just a villain." Zhang Chulan smiled wryly.

"Hmm? Zhang Chulan, what else do you know?" Hei Guan'er asked.

The others were also somewhat surprised.

Unlike the situation in North China, where the old leader had just died and everyone from the leader to Feng Baobao, who was posing as someone else, and even the temporary worker who had just joined to help Zhang Chulan, all of them were newcomers, the rest of the people here were all seasoned veterans.

They all knew that Ren Fei, the person in charge of Huazhong, came from a very powerful family and had a background that most people didn't know. She knew things that most people didn't know, and even knew them earlier and in more detail than most of the directors.

The boss was like this, and so were the temporary workers. Logically speaking, Black Pipe, a temporary worker in Central China, should be the one who knew the most information among the temporary workers.

How could Zhang Chulan, a newcomer, know things that Hei Guan'er didn't?

Zhang Chulan understood what these temporary workers meant, so his smile became even more bitter. "If it were possible, I wouldn't want to know, but there's nothing I can do, they've come to me."

"Is it related to your grandfather, Zhang Huaiyi?"

It's no secret that Zhang Chulan is Zhang Huaiyi's grandson, and the fact that he might have inherited the Qi Body Source Flow is widely known. Fortunately, with He Songling's existence, "extraordinary skills" seem less valuable, and their inheritance is everywhere.

With Zhang Chulan relying on the disciples and grand-disciples of Na Du Tong and the Celestial Master's Mansion, and He Songling causing trouble all over the world, he really hasn't been bothered much since the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony.

Could it be that he can no longer hold back and is about to reveal the source of Qi?

“If it were my grandfather, that would be fine,” Zhang Chulan sighed. “What is my grandfather? This time, it’s a god who has come.” “A god…”

Everyone was taken aback, and then a person came to mind for each of them.

"Is it him? Is it him?" The first to come to his senses was Gao Erzhuang, a semi-cyber life form. His WeChat groups for several temporary workers were flooded with all sorts of information, photos, videos, explanations, and so on about He Songling, which could be found online but not elsewhere.

"Yes, that's him."

Zhang Chulan nodded. "He now calls himself Ling Songhe in public to avoid disrupting the social order of the ordinary world, but we all know the truth among ourselves, so I won't be mysterious. You are all old-timers, and you are all more informed than I am. I don't need to introduce He Songling again."

“That’s true…” Xiao Zizai clenched his fist, a flash of bloodlust in his pupils. He still remembered He Songling’s words of encouragement to him on the back mountain of Longhu Mountain.

The other temporary workers nodded in agreement.

As mentioned before, Hei Guan'er has the most extensive and detailed information among the temporary workers. Backed by Ren Fei, he has access to a lot of information that others cannot see. Ever since a person resembling He Songling appeared at the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony, Ren Fei has reviewed all the internal files.

Old Meng was one of the people who participated in eradicating the resurgent Medicine Immortal Society. Before the operation, the background story of the Medicine Immortal Society, as well as information on its previous destruction, were distributed, so he naturally knew about He Songling from back then.

Wang Zhenqiu is even more of a story. Don't let his status as the youngest of all the current temporary workers fool you; this guy used to work for an organization that dealt with aliens. If aliens did it, then it's not just Earth; even gods are native to Earth, and they have their own records.

Of all the temporary workers, Chen Duo probably knew very little about He Songling, even less than Feng Baobao, who had lost her mind. However, since He Songling had already defected, one of the missions was to kill or capture her alive, so whether she knew or not was irrelevant.

Seeing that everyone understood, Zhang Chulan continued, "As you all know, this person is a major threat to the company."

Before I arrived, there were rumors that the company was planning to deal with him, but then the rumors stopped abruptly, as if the plan had never existed. It was even suspected that 'Ling Songhe' was just an ordinary Confucian and Taoist practitioner from Trinity University. I suspect that he must have done something.

Before I came, he met with me in Tianjin. He told me that everything regarding Biyou Village's actions was up to him, and asked me to relay a message to the company, telling them to stop. This clearly shows that he had already struck first, taking the initiative against the company. So this time…”

As Zhang Chulan spoke, the bitterness in his eyes deepened.

"This time, we've been caught up in the battle between the gods and the company," Black Pipe said, squinting as he finished Zhang Chulan's sentence.

Even though these were just a few temporary workers, all of them were seasoned veterans with their own stories or adventures that could be the protagonists of a story, they couldn't help but feel a chill run down their spines.

According to the original plot, they were already under immense pressure, getting caught up in the company's temporary workers' defection, the company's investigation, the upper management's scheming to fire temporary workers, and even taking the blame for the company and doing dirty work, defying public opinion and attacking a group of completely innocent people, capturing and even killing them.

If one is not careful, one may have to flee for one's life, or even die.

Compared to the current situation where we're embroiled in a battle of gods, this is still much better.
