Zhan Shen: It’s Just a Sacrifice, How Can I Become a Villain?

150: Undercover Shen Qingzhu!Shen Qingzhu only felt darkness all around him, with cold winds blowing past his ears; he didn’t know where he was going.

After an unknown amount of time, light began to appear around him.

Shen Qingzhu opened his eyes and found himself in the back mountains of the Training Camp.

Cangnan City was destroyed, but these mountains still remained.

Shen Qingzhu looked at the familiar mountain peaks, then gazed into the distance.

He was stunned!

The bustling lights and taverns that used to be visible from the mountain were gone, replaced by endless ruins and lush shrubs.

Cangnan City was gone.

”How is it? Surprising, isn’t it?” Whisper’s voice echoed behind Shen Qingzhu.

”Just a little emotional. I haven’t been gone from here for long, and I didn’t expect such a big change to have happened!” Shen Qingzhu seemed to be talking about an ordinary matter.

”Lord Whisper, what the Second Seat and Fifth Seat said earlier, was it true?”

”That’s right! A God War broke out here, and then the entire Cangnan City was destroyed.” Whisper observed Shen Qingzhu’s expression and found that he seemed to have no abnormalities.

”Compared to Gods, the power of Mortals is truly insignificant!” Shen Qingzhu sighed.

”Is that so? Shen Qingzhu, do you want even greater power?” Whisper asked enticingly.

”Yes!” Shen Qingzhu nodded heavily.

”Good, I really didn’t misjudge you!” Whisper patted his shoulder, ”Although you haven’t been with us for long, and your Realm is relatively low, from the first moment I saw you, I knew you were no ordinary person.”

”You’re different from the other believers; you are younger and more vibrant.”

Whisper walked in front of Shen Qingzhu, ”As long as you help me complete a task, I will help you achieve your dream.”

Shen Qingzhu placed his right hand on his chest and said devoutly, ”I obey your will, Lord Whisper.”

Whisper looked at Shen Qingzhu with satisfaction, ”What I’m about to tell you, you must remember clearly.”

Next, Whisper told Shen Qingzhu about Song Zhong becoming the fourth ancient God.

Shen Qingzhu’s eyebrows twitched slightly, ”Lord Whisper, this Song Zhong you mentioned, is he the one who made a name for himself in the Cangnan God War earlier?”

”Exactly, and he is the Song Zhong who previously infiltrated the Night Watcher Training Camp. You two should have even met before!”

”Then, is he perhaps a God? As far as I know, there is an insurmountable chasm between Mortals and Gods. A Mortal body cannot possibly slay a God.”

This was not only Shen Qingzhu’s question, but Whisper was also unclear about the reason behind it.

”I only know that fellow has some method that seems to allow him to possess the power of a God for a short period. Other times, he’s just an ordinary Klein.”

Shen Qingzhu felt a little uneasy. Good heavens, when they met before, that guy seemed to only be in the Chuan Realm, right? How long has it been, and he’s already a Klein?

”I wonder what Lord Whisper wants me to do?”

Whisper looked at Shen Qingzhu and said earnestly, ”I want you to go undercover by his side.”

Shen Qingzhu’s face twitched.

Undercover?

No, buddy, are you serious? What do you think my identity is right now?

Good heavens, sending an undercover agent to be an undercover agent by the side of another terrorist, is that it?

”But how am I supposed to get close to him?” Shen Qingzhu asked.

”You don’t need to worry about that; I will arrange everything.”

Whisper’s face revealed a triumphant smile. Shen Qingzhu was developed into a believer by the snake woman using a contract scroll, so it was impossible for him to go against his will.

To place such a ”reliable” chess piece by Song Zhong’s side, he truly was a master of strategy!

”What you need to do is very simple: just stay by his side and tell me his every move.”

”This subordinate understands, but I’m worried that Song Zhong won’t trust me and might not let me stay by his side.” Shen Qingzhu said.

”Don’t worry, you just need to let nature take its course.” Whisper said, ”Also, when you’re by his side, you must be careful. If you die, he’ll turn you into a zombie!”

”Zombie?” Hearing Whisper say that, Shen Qingzhu couldn’t help but feel a chill.

No one would want their body to be used by others after death.

”That’s right, Song Zhong has a strange personality, is moody, and is extremely harsh on his subordinates. Once he gets a hold of something on them, they’ll be tortured to death and then made into zombies for him to command.”

These words from Whisper were, of course, made up by him. His purpose was to scare Shen Qingzhu.

Although this guy had his Soul contract, if he were to be turned against him after going to Song Zhong’s side, he would be shooting himself in the foot.

So Whisper wanted to demonize Song Zhong’s image as much as possible. Although he himself wasn’t a good person, the matter of refining zombies could still be used to fool Shen Qingzhu.

As expected, a hint of resistance appeared on Shen Qingzhu’s face, ”I understand, this subordinate will act carefully.”

Seeing that Shen Qingzhu, despite his inner resistance, still obeyed his arrangements, Whisper felt relieved.

”Don’t worry, after this is done, I won’t mistreat you.”

...

Zhaijie Institute.

Lin Qi Ye looked at the carriage that had appeared out of thin air in his room, somewhat dazed.

He had seen this carriage before; it belonged to the Master.

”Lin Qi Ye, long time no see. Why don’t you come up for a chat?”

Lin Qi Ye thought for a moment, then got into the carriage.

”Junior Lin Qi Ye greets Master. I wonder why Master has appeared in my... cell?”

After the Cangnan City incident ended, Lin Qi Ye was brought to the Zhaijie Institute by the Night Watcher for isolation and observation.

As for the process, it was surprisingly similar to his previous experience of being hospitalized in a mental institution.

Although he had no problems, he still had to undergo examinations and talks every day.

Moreover, after arriving here, he found that all of his Forbidden Territories had become ineffective. He was now a completely ordinary Mortal.

”The Zhaijie Institute is the organization I’m in charge of, so why do you think I’m here?” The Master said with a chuckle.

”So that’s how it is!”

The Master poured Lin Qi Ye a cup of tea, ”How is it, are you used to living here recently?”

A helpless expression appeared on Lin Qi Ye’s face, ”To be honest, it’s a bit boring.”

”Haha, it’s good for young people to have passion, but if you want to achieve great things in the future, you also need to be patient.”

The Master took a sip of tea and said, ”During this time, just rest well here. In the future, there are even more important things for you to do.”

Lin Qi Ye was a little surprised, ”Please enlighten me, Master.”

”Originally, I came here to tell you about this. Have you heard of the Fifth Special Squad?”

”The Fifth Special Squad? I know Wang Mian and his team are the Fourth Special Squad, but I haven’t heard of this Fifth Squad.”

”No matter, I will explain it to you later, but what I want to say now is something else. The higher-ups want you to become the acting captain of the Fifth Special Squad.”

Lin Qi Ye was stunned. He hadn’t expected that he, merely a Night Watcher in the Chuan Realm, would be qualified to become the acting captain of a special squad.
