I traverse America, using holy light to quell American terror!

Three hours later, the plane landed safely at Los Angeles International Airport.

After saying goodbye to his fans, Li Yuan quickly stepped off the plane.

Finding a secluded corner, I retrieved the Cadillac Escalade from my system space and drove away from the airport.

Li Yuan took out his phone while driving and called Kaplan directly.

It was already close to 4 a.m.

But the phone only rang twice before Kaplan quickly answered it.

Li Yuan didn't speak immediately, but listened silently to the voice on the other end of the phone.

"Lord...Mr. Bishop?"

Kaplan's trembling voice came through the receiver.

Li Yuan could tell that he seemed somewhat agitated.

Kaplan exclaimed:

"Is that Your Excellency the Bishop? I knew you'd be alright!"

"it's me."

Li Yuan responded calmly, then gave a deep order:

"Kaplan, come to the office right now. Do you have enough time?"

Kaplan agreed without hesitation:

"Enough! Your Excellency, I'll be right there! Bruce's a great driver!"

"Okay, I'll wait for you."

Li Yuan hung up the phone casually.

The next second, his pupils suddenly widened slightly.

He murmured in a slightly surprised tone:

"Bruce?"

Recalling that respectful and humble figure,

It's hard to associate Li Yuan with the word "traitor."

But the ambush on the plane was carried out with such precision that their movements were leaked far too accurately.

Besides Bruce, who was personally in charge of the project, he couldn't think of a second person to choose.

After a moment, Li Yuan shook his head and muttered to himself:

"Whether it is true or not, we will know the truth under the effects of the [Compliance Potion] in a while."

Li Yuan slammed on the gas pedal, and the car roared as it sped toward the firm.

Meanwhile, Bruce was driving Kaplan at breakneck speed toward Li Yuan's office.

Bruce glanced at Kaplan in the rearview mirror.

It was somewhat unusual for him to take the initiative to inquire:

"Is Mr. Li Yuan still alive?"

"That's right! Bruce!"

Kaplan nodded excitedly and said:

"When I learned that two bodies were missing from the wreckage of that plane,

I knew Mr. Li Yuan must still be alive.

How could he possibly have been killed in a plane crash!

Bruce chuckled softly, his eyes unfocused as he stared ahead.

"Mr. Li Yuan is really lucky; even such an explosion couldn't kill him."

Kaplan, who was happy for Li Yuan,

They didn't notice the odd tone in Bruce's voice.

He excitedly echoed his agreement, then suggested to Bruce:

"Bruce, after you meet His Holiness the Bishop, you will also join the Holy Light Cult family."

As he spoke, Kaplan chuckled and shook his head:

"His Excellency the Bishop has never mentioned including you in the Holy Light Cult. He probably doesn't want us to overthink it."

"Great! I'm really looking forward to that moment."

Bruce gave a faint reply, a cryptic smile playing on his lips.

A moment later, the stretch Lincoln that Kaplan was riding in slowly came to a stop in front of Li Yuan's office.

Looking at the lights that had come on inside, Bruce asked softly:

"Sir, shall I wait for you in the car?"

"No, come in with me. Didn't I tell you I wanted you to join the Holy Light Cult?"

Kaplan straightened his clothes, waved to Bruce, and stepped out of the car.

"jingle--"

A wind chime rang out.

Li Yuan, sitting in the chair, looked up and gazed towards the door.

Kaplan excitedly approached Li Yuan and bowed deeply in respect.

"Your Excellency, it's so good to see you again!"

Seeing the two men, master and servant, enter one after the other,

Li Yuan didn't waste any more words.

Instead, he pointed to two vials of [Compliance Potion] emitting a pale purple glow on the table.

He said to the two of them:

"I want to ask you something, but I have to drink this first."

"good!"

Kaplan didn't hesitate and readily agreed.

He then reached for the medicine on the table and drank it down in one gulp.

Li Yuan nodded in satisfaction at his decisive manner.

The moment Kaplan picked up the potion,

He had already cleared half of the suspicion in Li Yuan's mind.

Li Yuan turned his gaze to Bruce and asked meaningfully:

"What are you waiting for?"

"I'm just curious what this thing is."

Bruce reached out and picked up the potion, but didn't drink it immediately.

Instead, he shook the bottle with great interest.

"Bruce wouldn't ask that kind of question."

Seeing that the drug's effects had begun to kick in on Kaplan's side, Li Yuan asked in a deep voice:

"Who exactly are you?"

"My name is Richard Kaplan, and I'm a California State Senator..."

As Kaplan muttered to himself with a blank expression,

Li Yuan and Bruce stared at each other coldly.

After a moment, Bruce smiled slightly and said to Li Yuan:

From now on, you must always be careful of the people around you.

Living in perpetual fear of betrayal

I may not be able to kill you, but I will plunge you into endless suffering!

Li Yuan coldly stared at the 'Bruce' spouting nonsense in front of him.

A slight smile suddenly appeared on his face, and he asked curiously:

"Then why don't you possess Kaplan? Is it because you don't want to?"

Bruce's expression froze when he was asked the question, and his face instantly darkened.

Believers blessed by Li Yuan have an innate aversion to invasion by evil creatures.

That's not some kind of demon that can easily possess you.

Seeing the other person's unpleasant expression, Li Yuan's smile deepened.

With a suspicion forming in his mind, he instantly activated [Sensing Evil Creatures].

Looking at Bruce in front of him, he smiled and joked:

"I see you can't do anything about my followers, can you?"

"It seems your rank isn't very high either; you're just a succubus doing odd jobs?"

It has no smell of sulfur and is extremely adept at hiding and possessing.

Then there's a high probability that she's a succubus spy from hell.

After Li Yuan uttered the word "succubus"

A barely perceptible glint flashed in Bruce's eyes.

Although it's not very obvious,

However, Li Yuan, who had activated his ability to sense evil creatures, still saw it.

He stared at the layer of evil energy enveloping Bruce.

He joked with a smile:

"Wow, looks like I guessed right. Who do you serve?"

This is just a small fry; he's more interested in finding out who's behind him.

At this point, Kaplan, having finished explaining his origins,

He continued, picking up where he left off, and muttered to himself:

"I serve the great messenger of holy light, the archbishop of the Holy Light Church—Li Yuan!"

Just as Kaplan opened his mouth,

Li Yuan noticed that Bruce's body twitched slightly, as if he was about to escape.

Li Yuan looked at the other person and subtly raised his right hand slightly.

A giant hammer phantom instantly appeared above Bruce's head!

In that instant, Bruce, possessed by the succubus, seemed to sense the presence of danger.

At the same time he was hit by the phantom,

His eyes rolled back, and he fell to the ground with a thud.

Li Yuan frowned; the evil energy on Bruce's body had actually disappeared!

With quick reflexes, Li Yuan instantly summoned the silver coin of Judah and held it in his hand.

Li Yuan closed his eyes and infused the silver coin with spiritual power.

When he opened his eyes again,

The scene before my eyes has instantly shifted to hell!

Li Yuan stared at the succubus not far away, a cold smile appearing on his lips:

"Ha, trying to act tough and run away? I'll let you taste the power of holy light!"
