Sir! Don't close the net!

“Speaking of which, there seems to have been some reshuffling within Sheep Village,” Marcel said with a sudden realization, shrugging his shoulders. “Your former employer has been demoted to security guard.”

"Even if he becomes a security guard, he's still the owner of a large ranch," the boss said, wiping the cleaned glass.

Once it's put in the cabinet, "it's not up to a stall owner, a groom, or a gardener to care."

Marcel gave an awkward laugh, but Yolan felt uncomfortable and a tightness in his chest. Almost subconsciously, he said, "It's hard to say. It seems that his ranch was given to him by the minister of Sheep Village. It seems that the minister will not be returning to Guoweidun. Maybe in a couple of days, that ranch will no longer belong to him."

Marcel and the boss were stunned, staring intently at Yolan. This made Yolan uneasy, and he began to regret his behavior just now. But... for some reason, the tightness in his heart disappeared, and he even felt a little bit of pleasure.

“That’s hard to say,” Marcel said, swaying his cup back and forth. “This Levi’s Est. Richard has taken a lot of dirty money by relying on the Sheep Village Minister as his backer. Recently, Wilson came up with some kind of semi-annual bonus thing, which looks like a benefit for employees, but in reality…”

Marcel suddenly lowered his voice.

"It's just using the wages that should have been paid to those employees as a incentive to get them to work hard. Wilson never guaranteed that he would pay them. This idea came from Levi Strauss Richard. I guess a portion of the money squeezed out will end up in Richard's pocket."

"That's really going too far," Yoran muttered under his breath.

"That's hard to say," the boss smiled knowingly. "Levi's Estée Richard was able to make so much dirty money because of his connections in Sheep Village. Without those connections, hmph—"

“That makes sense, haha—I heard that the new acting minister and the minister of Sheep Village don’t get along, and he’s probably thinking about how to get rid of this guy right now,” Marcel slapped his thigh and laughed. “He’s been riding a tricycle and hauling scrap metal all day, looks like he’s really scared, and he’s probably at home having a major headache right now.”

"I was lucky enough to see Acting Minister Yeropon today. Based on my years of experience, he's clearly a formidable figure, with an imposing presence," the boss said, waving his finger from side to side with a rather smug air. "Right now, he's probably at home sipping his wine and killing time by thinking about how to concoct a Levi-Istyl Richard."

"Hahaha--"

The three of them burst into laughter; they seemed to have become kindred spirits and good friends.

Frustrated by the wait for hot water, Li Yili slowly sat down in the bathtub, holding onto the sides. The slightly hot water stimulated her aching muscles, and Li Yili opened her mouth and let out a long breath.

Now that the worries are over, it's time to enjoy the time.

Before Li Yili could fully soak in the tub, the bathroom door was pushed open, and Valkyrie, wrapped in a bath towel with a small wooden basin on her head, walked in naturally. She lifted her long legs, sat down in the tub under Li Yili's dark gaze, put the wooden sign aside, and exhaled.

“I didn’t order this service today, so get out of here,” Li Yili said, raising her eyes.

"No way~ Do you know how much wood I sawed for you today? I'm so sweaty and uncomfortable," Valkyrie said slowly, fiddling with the wooden tub and pulling out a bottle of wine.

"Ha... alright then..."

"Pop—"

The strong smell of alcohol hit Li Yili's face the moment the cork was unscrewed.

Li Yili was in a state of utter distress.

Jeroboam faced the greatest test since becoming a chosen one of the gods.

The contaminants he carried were all low-level, and he was confident that he could absorb and refine them one by one to obtain the power of the legacy. However, an unexpected situation arose at the Temple of Guoweidun, and as a result, he panicked and threw out all the contaminants. Now he has to face the consequences of his panic.

Should he watch helplessly as the extracted legacy power is accepted by the Temple of Guoweiton, or should he bite the bullet and absorb it? Normally, he would have carefully chosen the former. There are still pollutants, but he only has one life. However, the state of the Temple of Guoweiton is too abnormal. He dares not gamble on what will happen if the Temple of Guoweiton consumes the legacy power. He dares not allow this unknown god to have abilities beyond observation.

"I'll give it my all! I'll give it my all! I know I can do it!"

With bloodshot eyes, Yerobo An knelt down with a thud, grabbing the golden liquid with both hands and stuffing it into his mouth. The mental shock, far stronger than before, caused Yerobo An's stomach to convulse, and his mouth opened uncontrollably as if he wanted to vomit. Before he could even adapt to his new body, it was refreshed once again.

The gale-force winds crashed into every hole along the vortex staircase. In the darkness, the weather vane began to turn and pressed against a line. The line was not severed, but it pulled down a valve, and the gears that were tightly stuck began to turn.

"Nicholas...Nicholas!"

Yerobo An covered his mouth tightly, his pupils dilating and shrinking repeatedly. His collapsing spirit was stabilized by a figure. There is a way to cheat the transformation of the chosen one: ignore it!

Ignoring the information fed back by his brand-new body and the knowledge of the unknown world may result in him being weaker as a chosen one than other chosen ones of the same level, and his mastery of his abilities may become rough, but it will ensure that he does not go insane.

“Nicholas, you just need to…”

Yerobo An was startled. He heard a sound coming with the wind. It was an extremely strange sound, because he didn't hear anything, but felt something sticky, like something passing through his ears.

He remembers that feeling; he will never forget it.

"No...no way...why did it respond to me...that's not right!"

For a moment, Yeropo An forgot to resist the mental shock and got up to try to find the source of the sound, but he had not yet adapted to his refreshed body and fell to the ground with a thud.

"Don't...don't say anything more..."

Yerobo An lay struggling in the center of the altar on the vortex staircase. All the caramel people stopped in their tracks and bowed down in perfect unison towards the center of the altar, prostrating themselves on the ground, seemingly worshipping something.

Chapter 74 A Simp Never Admits Defeat

Perhaps because some measures were taken and there was no aimless waiting, Li Yili slept very soundly and did not have any more nightmares. She woke up the next day full of energy.

Of course, it could also be because he was too tired from pedaling the tricycle all day.

Li Yili forcefully pulled open the curtains, letting the soft sunlight into the room. She whistled as she straightened her clothes. Valqiu Lei pulled her elbows back, yawned, and sat up listlessly. The blanket slowly slid down, and her exposed, snow-white skin seemed to glow under the gentle caress of the sunlight.

"Why are you so energetic? By the way, could you please close the curtains?" Valkyrie complained, raising her hand to shield her eyes.

“Because today is an important day,” Li Yili turned around and walked to a full-length mirror, unusually taking the time to carefully straighten the wrinkles in her clothes.

"Hey... Hagen didn't release any new models today."

“Even if it is released, it’s not an important day for me,” Li Yili rolled her eyes. “The pollutants will be delivered to Guoweiton today.”

"This matter..."

Valkyrie rolled her eyes and fell back with a thud, her arms outstretched.

Have you figured out how to handle this?

“Of course I’ve thought it through. I’m going to stay here until I die,” Li Yili turned around and put her hands on her hips. “Although it might take a little effort, the pollutants that those guys stole before can be recovered in one go.”

“Hmm—have you considered the problems that would arise after all the pollutants are recovered?” Valhae Rae rubbed her legs gently under the blanket. “You don’t have the means to destroy them.”

“Well… if we’re lucky, Yeropo An will run away with the pollutants and solve the problem once and for all. If we’re unlucky…” Li Yili paused and sighed, “we’ll just have to leave it like before. But at least this time we don’t have to worry about being tracked down.”

"Really……"

After a moment of silence, Valkyrie rolled up the blanket and huddled on the edge of the bed like a spring roll.

"You're not going to keep sleeping, are you?" Li Yili raised an eyebrow.

"Hahoo hahoo—"

"You don't snore when you sleep."

"..."

"Alright, I'm off," Li Yili rolled her eyes and closed the door.

As Li Yili's footsteps faded into the distance, the spring rolls on the bed gradually unfurled. Valhou Lei sat up, bent her legs, and spread them to the sides, her rounded buttocks resting between her fair feet. Valhou Lei tilted her head back and exhaled a long breath, raising her right hand to brush her loose hair back as she murmured to herself.

"It's almost...time."

At 6:25, Li Yili arrived at the security booth. Although it was not yet time for work, the Yangcun Building was bustling with people, and many Guo Weidun's clients were handling their business in front of the booth.

What a great group of employees!

Li Yili couldn't help but sigh. Once he got the black goat's cubs, he would definitely make good use of them and put their passion to good use. But right now, Li Yili was most looking forward to Yerobo An's condition.

Soon, the work bell rang in Sheep Village, but Yerobo An did not appear on time. Many of the Cloud Clan members waiting at the entrance of the Sheep Village building were a little surprised, but they did not take it too seriously. After all, Yerobo An had only been here for two days. Being on time for two days did not mean that he would be on time every day. So they simply assumed that Yerobo An had overslept.

El, who was also watching the gates of Sheep Village, couldn't help but smile after a brief moment of surprise. This was a good omen. How could someone favored by the gods oversleep? Today was the day the pollutants were delivered to Guoweidun. Yerobo An should have been even more energetic than the previous two days, but Yerobo An was late!

Although we don't know what Li Yili did, she succeeded!

El and his friends excitedly pumped their fists, while the Cloud Clan executives who were still hesitating wavered even more.

Two hours later, Yerobo An finally appeared in front of the Sheep Village gate, but none of the Cloud Clan members dared to come forward to greet him. Dark circles under his eyes, like some kind of brand, covered his cheeks, and his frog-like eyes bulged out abnormally, as if his eyeballs were about to burst out at any moment.

Dozens of stray hairs, still dripping sticky liquid, stuck up from his already greasy, shiny slicked-back hair.

Even the most loyal followers of Jeroboam were unwilling to meet Jeroboam's gaze.

They were well aware of what this unusual change meant.

Jeroboam, as a chosen one of the gods, is nearing a loss of control.

At the same time, questions arose in their minds: Those favored by the gods only lose control when absorbing the power of legacies. Leaving aside the fact that no legacies could be unearthed in Guoweidun, why would Yeropon An choose Guoweidun as a place...

Even those who are not favored by the gods know very well that absorbing the power of the legacy is an extremely dangerous thing, and they must be fully prepared.

One inexplicable question after another, coupled with signs that Yeroboam was about to lose control, plunged the Cloud Crowd into silence.

Yerobo An stiffly turned his head to look at Li Yili, who was sitting in the guard booth with an innocent face. His fingers were cracking, and the discomfort and pain that kept rising made him unable to think. However, his intuition told him that what happened last night was related to Li Yili, but!

That voice was real; he couldn't possibly be mistaken.

If he believes that the world last night was related to Li Yili, it would be tantamount to admitting that Li Yili was related to the Black Goat. His pride would not allow him to admit this, much less allow him to do something that would be tantamount to admitting it!

Yerobo An walked with his hands hanging down, as if nothing had happened, swaying as he passed through the path the Cloud Clan had avoided. He raised his hand to greet the crowd as he walked up the stairs.

The door to the minister's office slammed shut, and the group, who had been frozen in place, finally let out a heavy sigh of relief. Many of the Yun people felt a wave of dizziness and nearly collapsed to the ground.

Li Yili closed the newspaper in her hand, and the corners of her mouth turned up slightly.

The "simp killer" is highly effective.

Having witnessed Dela Pal return to normal from his out-of-control state, he knew very well that Yerobo An, as a chosen one of the gods, was infinitely close to losing control, and the most basic condition for victory had been met.

"Boom boom boom——"

A knock was heard on one side of the glass. Li Yili calmly put down the newspaper in her hand, stood up, straightened her collar, turned her head to look at El outside the security booth, and then grinned at Abu Jean and the others behind El, who were all looking surprised.

Chapter 75 Why don't you understand (jpg)

"I can't accept this no matter what!"

In the dilapidated, closed bar, Abu Jang and a group of Yunzhong executives, their faces flushed, loudly protested to El, or more precisely, to Li Yili, who was standing behind El with her hands behind her back, examining the liquor cabinet. The Yunzhong executives who did not protest expressed their attitude through silence.

Al felt helpless and somewhat disappointed, clearly because apart from him, no one else realized the seriousness of the problem.

El glanced at Li Yili behind him, but Li Yili remained unmoved, as if everything was none of his business.

This must be a test for me!

El let out a soft breath and crossed his arms.

Now, a scale has been placed between the black goat's young, with Li Yili on one side and Yerobo An on the other. They must now choose a side, but these Cloud Clan executives, out of their dislike for Li Yili, do not want to stand on her side.

The situation is urgent now, there is no such thing as neutrality. Not standing with Li Yili is tantamount to helping Yerobo An.

He couldn't speak up for Li Yili because her acting of enduring humiliation was truly convincing.

All he could do was prevent these Cloud Clan executives from electing Yerobo An.

“Jeroboam, as a chosen one of the gods, has lost control.”

For a moment, the noisy Yunzhong executives fell silent, and even the most indignant Abu Jean hesitated.
