The transmigrated villain wants to escape Feng Aotian's hellish situation.

The two looked at each other.

It seems that the young master is preparing to get involved in this matter.

This was a good thing for them, as they had gained a reliable helper. At the same time, the two of them were determined to protect Qin Yangjun by his side at all times.

If problems arise again this time, don't even think about getting a pardon; apologize instead.

Then, with a wave of one hand, a blue, ethereal map made of spiritual energy appeared in the room.

Qin Yangjun looked at the map and began to determine the route.

To ensure that these people wouldn't run into any problems or change their route, Qin Yangjun didn't intend to interfere with their corpse-stealing. The important thing was that the subsequent events were under his control.

He needs to gather the female lead and her group around him so that he can set up the defense routes when they return to base...

Chapter Fifty-Three: Black and White Faces

However, controlling the grouping is only the first step.

According to the plot, Yin Kangxuehan had already sensed the hostility of those demon kings towards her.

If it weren't for the advance warning, she probably wouldn't have been able to kill Xiaopeng Wang while injured.

Now that Yin Kangxuehan's assassination attempt has failed, she probably won't return to the Demon King's camp.

Without her, there would be no internal strife. Qin Yangjun was no match for that Little Peng King, so he had to make other plans.

"You may all leave now. Let Zhuang Hancheng come to see me."

"Yes."

The two peak masters left, and a short while later, there was a knock on the door.

"Enter."

With a soft murmur from Qin Yangjun, the door was pushed open.

Upon seeing the person who had arrived, Qin Yangjun chuckled softly.

Because not only Zhuang Hancheng, but also Zhuang Daoyan came.

At this moment, Zhuang Daoyan's face was covered in bruises, which perfectly confirmed Qin Yangjun's previous guess.

As soon as he entered, Zhuang Daoyan knelt down in front of Qin Yangjun, trembling.

"Lord Zhuang, what are you doing?"

“My son was rude and offended the disciples of the Yuqian Sect. I brought him here to apologize.”

"Heh, apologize? Your son led a group to beat up Jiang Yanfeng. If you want to apologize, go to him, or the Peak Master or the Deacon. Why are you coming to me?"

Qin Yangjun tilted his head and looked at the two people below the stage.

"However, it's quite interesting. Your son is quite capable; he can command two demons to do things for him."

Qin Yangjun lowered his voice when he said the last few words.

Zhuang Daoyan's body shuddered violently, and cold sweat broke out on Zhuang Hancheng's forehead.

This is labeling.

He brought his son along to test the chief's mood. Judging from his previous pardon of Qingluan Mountain, this young master Biyue had a good temper.

Judging from his current aggressive stance, he is truly angry.

“Young master, this is all a misunderstanding. My son had no idea that those two people were demons in disguise.”

Zhuang Hancheng hurriedly explained, bowing his head and clasping his hands in a gesture of respect, almost kneeling down.

"So, it was all a misunderstanding that he forced us to buy things in the street, beat up our Yuqian Sect members, and embarrass us?"

"This this...."

It was as if something was stuck in Zhuang Hancheng's throat, making him completely unable to speak.

Qin Yangjun continued to apply pressure.

"And about my assassination attempt, your city lord's mansion, though seemingly impregnable, is actually full of holes."

Qin Yangjun stood up and then slowly walked to Zhuang Hancheng's side.

"If these two things reach my sister's ears, coupled with your previous actions, what do you think the outcome will be?"

At this moment, Zhuang Hancheng was already sweating profusely, while Zhuang Daoyan beside him was trembling like a leaf.

"but..."

At this moment, Qin Yangjun suddenly changed the subject.

“These things look very different if viewed from another perspective.”

"Lord Zhuang, you have been working diligently to guard the border and unite the surrounding forces over the years to strengthen the defense of the border. However, you have found that as the forces have grown, the affairs you have to handle have become more and more burdensome. You are exhausted from dealing with these affairs every day, and in the end, you can only weaken the connection between these forces and focus on guarding the city."

"Although my son is somewhat immature, he was able to recognize his mistakes in time and sincerely admit them. The unpleasant things that happened are no longer a big deal."

"As for my assassination attempt, it was due to the cunning of the demon race. City Lord Zhuang was slightly negligent and fell into their trap, but he returned at the crucial moment, preventing major losses. Considering his merits in guarding the city over the years, his merits and demerits cancel each other out..."

As he spoke, Qin Yangjun helped Zhuang Hancheng up.

"Lord Zhuang, do you think my perspective is correct?"

Zhuang Hancheng was no fool; he immediately understood the meaning behind Qin Yangjun's words.

This young master of the blue waters truly lives up to his name; he has me completely under his thumb.

"My lord, you are wise. If there is anything you may do to help me, I will do my utmost, even at the cost of my life."

Qin Yangjun smiled with satisfaction.

"I like talking to smart people; it saves me from wasting words."

Logically speaking, once we arrived at Canggu City, all matters concerning city defense should be handled according to Zhuang Hancheng's instructions, since he was stationed on the frontier and knew the situation best.

Now, through these changes, Qin Yangjun has seized this power into his own hands.

When it comes time to assign personnel, Qin Yangjun will say one, and Zhuang Hancheng will not dare to say another.

Of course, Qin Yangjun did not intend to completely take over the power; he only wanted the route to be divided when returning to defend.

However, this alone is not enough to offset what they have done.

"I remember, the previous Demon King had something in the treasury of your city lord's mansion, didn't he?"

Zhuang Hancheng was first startled, then his expression changed several times.

Unexpectedly, Qin Yangjun had such a big appetite. That was something belonging to a demon king at the Tribulation Transcending Realm, and it was one of the few treasures he could afford to possess.

but....

He gritted his teeth suddenly.

"If you need it, young master, I will go and fetch it now and give it to you."

"Hey, there's no rush, it doesn't matter whether it's sooner or later. Besides, there's one more thing..."

As he spoke, Qin Yangjun looked at Zhuang Daoyan beside him. Zhuang Hancheng immediately understood and gave Zhuang Daoyan a light kick.

"This is none of your business. Get out now."

Zhuang Daoyan then felt as if he had been granted a pardon and scrambled out, watching his disheveled figure.

Then look at Qin Yangjun, who is about the same age but full of vigor.

Zhuang Hancheng sighed bitterly, feeling utterly disappointed.

"I'm sorry to have made you laugh, sir."

Qin Yangjun smiled indifferently.

"Let's get down to business. There's something I need you to do..."

Qin Yangjun didn't talk to Zhuang Hancheng for long, because the matter itself wasn't very troublesome, and Qin Yangjun didn't need to explain anything to him.

After their conversation, Zhuang Hancheng left. Watching Zhuang Hancheng's retreating figure, Qin Yangjun gradually calmed down.

Preparations are now complete; it remains to be seen when the demon race will take action.

Drip!

Just then, a sharp voice suddenly rang in Qin Yangjun's ears.

This was because the warning I had set up with Ling'er suddenly reacted.

Qin Yangjun immediately rushed out of the room.

As soon as Qin Yangjun entered Ling'er's room, he smelled a strong burning smell, and there was a burning thing in the middle of the door.

Some features can still be vaguely seen.

At this moment, Ling'er was cleaning the silk threads off her body on the bed. She was somewhat excited when she discovered that Qin Yangjun had arrived.

"Young Master, it's so good that you're alright."

Her memory is still stuck on the moment before she fell into a coma.

Qin Yangjun smiled helplessly.

That silly girl didn't even think about herself; she almost lost her life back then.

"Don't do anything so dangerous again."

"But young master..."

"Since you call me young master, you have to listen to me, understand?"

Qin Yangjun's tone conveyed an unquestionable certainty.

Qin Yangjun's 'domineering' behavior inexplicably warmed Ling'er's heart, and all her unspoken words were condensed into a single character.

"Ah."
