Godslayer: I've gone bald, but I'm stronger now!

After confirming the fish species' abilities with An Qingyu, Bai Yu contacted Yuan Gang, and the two secretly researched a plan to save Li Yaoguang's parents.

After listening to Bai Yu's plan, Yuan Gang was initially puzzled, since the current arrangements differed somewhat from Bai Yu's own predictions.

Originally, they had already prepared for the worst, that Li Yaoguang and his parents would be sacrificed, and Wang Gui and Wu Ruotong were already sentenced to death as if it were a foregone conclusion.

But these three men are all veterans who have followed Yuan Gang all the way. It would be a lie to say he doesn't feel sorry for them.

However, regardless of the prophecy, Yuan Gang could completely accept that things had changed for the better, but he still couldn't help but complain.

"Bai Yu, you're a real bastard! You've snatched all the bamboo shoots on the mountain! It's a good thing I didn't send you to Sichuan Province! Otherwise, even the pandas would starve!"

Bai Yu: "..."

Are you praising me or insulting me?

Yuan Gang laughed loudly: "I'm praising you!"

“If there were a Bamboo Shoot God in this world, you would definitely be the Bamboo Shoot God’s agent.”

Bai Yu: "..."

Are they really that good?

Yuan Gang: "What do you think?"

Bai Yu: "Then let's discuss it again and see if we can be even more sarcastic?"

Yuan Gang: "Hehehehehehe!"

Bai Yu: "Hehehehehehe!"

And so, a conspiracy against the Church of the Ancient Gods shrouded the entire Great Xia Dynasty like poisonous smoke.

Li Yaoguang's hometown is a small county town.

It was the afternoon of New Year's Eve. The three little karami sent by the Ancient God Church to kidnap Li Yaoguang's parents were playing cards idly while keeping an eye on them.

Suddenly, the cell phone of Karamia, who was in charge of communication, rang.

Little Karamia picked up his phone and saw the noble and elegant Dreamy Master.

Muttering: "Hey, Ah Da, threaten him one last time with Li Yaoguang's parents and make him detonate all the weapons in the training camp."

Ah Da: "Royal Flush!"

Yiyu frowned: "Number One, what are you talking about?"

Ah Da: "Ah... I said I understand."

Muttering: "Don't make any mistakes, I believe in you."

Ah Da: "I understand, Lord Dreamy One!"

After hanging up the phone, the second and third brothers came over and asked.

Ah Er: "What's wrong, Lao Da? Is there some kind of operation? I've been so bored these past few days, I really want to go to a brothel."

Indian: "Yeah, yeah, I haven't touched a lizard in ages, I'm so craving one!"

Ah Da: "Master Yiyu told us to use Li Yaoguang's parents to threaten Li Yaoguang again, so that he would detonate all the weapons in the training camp."

Ah Er: "And then? And then?"

Ah Da smacked Ah Er on the head: "After threatening him, just kill him to silence him. The reward from this mission should be enough for the three of us to live it up for a while."

Indian: "Bonus, hehehe, cool, hehehe, lizard, hehehe."

Ah Da: "Okay, I'll contact Li Yaoguang. It may take some time to get a reply."

Ah Er: "Okay, you go ahead, Prisoner, I'll just order some milk tea."

Indian: "Hehehe, bubble tea, bubble tea."

New recruit training camp site.

At this time, the new recruits were all on leave, but the instructors did not rest. They routinely checked the equipment, maintained and serviced some of the equipment, and prepared teaching materials that would be easier for these new recruits to understand.

These instructors have already seen the potential of this year's freshmen, and now they are the ones passing on the torch.

and so……

Even if they are someone's child, someone's father, someone's husband.

But at this moment, they have only one identity: instructors, the sacred torchbearers.

Yuan Gang was strolling around the camp at this moment, casually offering words of comfort to each instructor.

"The new recruits have all left, so you can all relax. The telephone lines have been set up. Tonight, everyone will work a little harder and take turns talking to their families in line."

"Han Li, I remember you just got married last year, right? After this training camp is over, I'll give you three days off!"

……

And so, Yuan Gang greeted each instructor warmly, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

Finally, he walked up to Li Yaoguang and patted Li Yaoguang on the shoulder with his large palm.

"Yaoguang, what's wrong? You seem to have something on your mind."

Li Yaoguang forced a smile: "Commander... I..."

Yuan Gang lightly punched his shoulder: "It's rest time now, no need to call me commander. You've been my soldier since you joined the army in '89, it's more affectionate to call me old squad leader."

"By the way, how are your parents back home? I remember they were planning to find you a blind date last year, right? Don't be too picky, hurry up and let your parents hold their grandson, you hear me?"

Li Yaoguang desperately tried to project his emotions: "Understood... Sergeant."

Seeing that Li Yaoguang had nothing else to say, Yuan Gang turned and walked towards another instructor.

Although his face was full of joy at the approaching New Year, a faint hint of disappointment was hidden in Yuan Gang's eyes.

However... he can't force these things.

They put their comrades and parents on the same scale.

It's not easy for anyone to make a choice.

beep.

The satellite phone hidden on Li Yaoguang's person vibrated slightly, startling him.

He knew that when the satellite phone rang, it meant the other party was asking him to do something.

Using the excuse of needing to use the restroom, Li Yaoguang broke away from the main group. He knew the training camp was now heavily monitored, but...

However, he had a reason that compelled him to break free from surveillance and contact the other party.

Those were his biological parents who had raised and nurtured him for over ten years...

Fifteen minutes later, Li Yaoguang, bearing the risk, arrived at a grove of trees three kilometers away from the training camp. With a solemn expression, he took out his satellite phone and dialed back.

A moment later, a hoarse voice came through the satellite phone.

"One last request: detonate all the weapons in the training camp, and we'll release your parents."

Li Yaoguang was struck dumb.

The second sentence came through.

“Li Yaoguang, don’t try anything funny. You’ve already betrayed the Night’s Watch. You know the rules of the Night’s Watch. No matter what, you’ll be locked up in the fasting quarters and never get out.”

"But our Church of the Ancient Gods can offer you a second path."

“Blow up the training camp, join the Church of the Ancient Gods, and your parents will be safe, and you will also be free.”

Suck.

Li Yaoguang listened to the other person finish speaking with a somewhat conflicted expression, ignoring the sound of the other person drinking milk tea.

In that instant, many things came to mind.

His parents' upbringing led him to not do well in school, so after graduating high school he joined the army, and he was in Yuan Gang's unit right after enlisting...

From that time on, Yuan Gang has been his old squad leader, guiding him like an older brother and a father all the way to where he is today.

"I agree, but how can you guarantee the safety of my parents?"

"You can only trust us, can't you? Hahahaha."

Hearing the other party's mockery, Li Yaoguang clenched his fist.

"Let me hear my parents' voices..."

There was a moment's hesitation on the other end of the phone.

"Alright, I'll do it since we'll all be followers of the Church of the Ancient Gods from now on."

A moment later, an old voice came from the other end of the phone.

“Yaoguang, I named you this in the hope that you will bring honor to your ancestors. Don’t worry about me and your mother, and never do anything that would let down the country or the people.”

Li Yaoguang's hands were clenched tightly, and his eyes were already filled with tears.

Who...who can come...?

Help him!
