Awoke As A God After Auto Battling For 1000000 Years

Chapter 32: Chapter 32: Resignation, Leaving Yan Yu Pavilion



Notting City, Resurrection Spring.

Whoosh!

White light descended as Chen Jun appeared in the spring. The level indicator above his head dropped from LV14 to LV12.

At that moment, rage surged within him, veins bulging, and his eyes bloodshot.

"Damn you, Zhang Yue! I won't stop until one of us is dead!"

Almost simultaneously, Wu Zui, who had also just revived in the spring, quickly warned him, "Brother Chen, you died once in Corpse City, and now again. You can't afford to die a third time in seven days!"

"If Zhang Yue tracks us here, we need to leave immediately and find somewhere safe to lay low!"

Though Chen Jun put up a tough front, he feared death more than anyone. Without hesitation, he and Wu Zui fled from the Resurrection Spring…

Meanwhile, Zhang Yue, still marked with a red name, had already ventured outside the city.

To clear his sin points, a player must kill monsters of equal or higher levels. However, the Level 13 zombies from the horde were insufficient for Zhang Yue's needs.

He made his way to a random Level 17 zone outside the city and began slaying zombies there.

As time passed, countless players both inside and outside of Notting City were still locked in fierce battles against the undead. Suddenly, a system announcement echoed through the skies:

[Area Announcement (Notting City):]

[Ding~ Attention all players in Notting City: The zombie horde is retreating! Congratulations on successfully defending the city. Notting City has regained its protective barrier, and interdimensional portals are now functional again.]

In the next instant, all zombies within and outside the city began retreating, moving further away from Notting City. Inside the city, waves of cheers erupted from the players:

"Yes! I killed 50 zombies! I completed the world quest!"

"Damn it! I killed 49! Just one more! Please stop running! Let me kill one more zombie! Just one! I'm begging you!"

While the celebrations continued, Zhang Yue received a flying message from Su Jingyan: "Zhang Yue, where are you?"

"Outside, clearing my red name," Zhang Yue replied as he continued to slaughter the zombies.

Surprised, Su Jingyan asked, "Red name? Did you kill someone?"

Right at that moment, the guild chat exploded with messages.

[Yan Yu Pavilion, General: "@Zhang Yue, you bastard! You're fired! As of now, you're no longer part of Yan Yu Pavilion!"]

[Yan Yu Pavilion, General: "@Zhang Yue, you dog! Remember this—one day, I'll make you pay tenfold for what you've done!"]

Seeing the messages, Su Jingyan was utterly confused. She sent a private message to Zhang Yue, "What happened?"

Piecing things together, Su Jingyan seemed to realize something. "Did you… kill Chen Jun?"

Zhang Yue replied with just one word: "Yes."

She had expected Zhang Yue to start explaining why he had killed Chen Jun, expecting the usual barrage of questions. But instead, she laughed and sent: "Hahaha! Well done! Zhang Yue, you did what I've always wanted to do!"

"No wonder Chen Jun's barking in the chat. He must be livid. Haha! It's so satisfying!"

Su Jingyan's reaction amused Zhang Yue. It wasn't what he had anticipated.

Then, Su Jingyan asked, "Chen Jun's cursing you in the chat. Why aren't you responding?"

Zhang Yue chuckled. "If a dog bites you, would you bite back?"

"Of course not! Hahaha!"

Over the course of the next hour or so, Zhang Yue managed to eliminate his 200 points of sin value, finally restoring his white name. By 10 PM, he returned to Notting City and logged off. After a shower, he went to bed.

The next morning, Zhang Yue woke up to an unexpected phone call from Su Jingya. He had a good idea why she was calling.

He answered the call, placing the phone to his ear.

Before she could speak, Zhang Yue said calmly, "I'm resigning. As of today, I'm leaving your guild."

There was silence on the other end.

Su Jingya was stunned. "Zhang Yue, what do you mean?"

"Exactly what it sounds like," Zhang Yue responded matter-of-factly.

Before she could continue, Zhang Yue hung up the call.

Ever since Su Jingyan had informed him that Chen Jun was backed by the Su family patriarch, Su Chen, Zhang Yue knew that trying to explain himself would be pointless. There was no use in defending his actions. His fate within Yan Yu Pavilion was sealed the moment Chen Jun set his sights on him.

Since it was bound to happen anyway, Zhang Yue chose to walk away on his own terms. With someone like Chen Jun leading the guild, it was only a matter of time before he would have been kicked out.

Meanwhile, in the Su family's high-rise building, inside the chairman's office...

Su Chen listened as the dial tone cut off on Su Jingya's phone.

"This is the person you were so eager to vouch for?" Su Chen asked, his voice steady.

Su Jingya frowned, defending Zhang Yue. "Chairman, Zhang Yue wouldn't maliciously attack guild members for no reason. No one would do something so reckless without a cause."

Su Chen's tone remained firm. "But the facts show that he killed Chen Jun and four other members of Yan Yu Pavilion."

"I'm suggesting that there may have been some unavoidable reason—Zhang Yue could have just been defending himself…"

"Do you have any evidence to support that?" Su Chen cut her off.

"I…"

Just then, Su Jingyan burst into the room.

"Uncle, I have the evidence!"

She played a recording aloud: "Miss… Miss Su, I swear I didn't attack your friend on purpose. It was your guild leader, Chen Jun, who paid me 10,000 coins to do it…"

"This is from the people who attacked Zhang Yue last night. They admitted that Chen Jun paid them to attack him first. Zhang Yue only fought back in self-defense."

After listening to the recording and hearing Su Jingyan's explanation, Su Chen furrowed his brow and fell silent.

After a long pause, he finally spoke to both Su Jingyan and Su Jingya. "A newcomer to the guild versus the Chen family, who have supported Yan Yu Pavilion for years. I trust you understand which side carries more weight."

Su Jingyan was incredulous. "But Uncle! We can't just twist the truth and let an innocent man take the fall. How can anyone trust Yan Yu Pavilion after this?"

Once again, Su Chen remained quiet for a moment before saying, "Have Zhang Yue come back. This matter ends here. No one needs to bear any responsibility."

Su Jingyan hesitated. "What if Chen Jun continues to target Zhang Yue in the future?"

"I'll talk to Chen Jun," Su Chen replied.

Without wasting any time, Su Jingyan sent a flying message to Zhang Yue: "Zhang Yue, you can come back now! I've explained everything to Chairman Su, and you've been cleared!"

She assumed that Zhang Yue had only resigned because of the misunderstanding and believed that now, with the misunderstanding resolved, he would surely return.

To her surprise, Zhang Yue replied, "I'm not coming back."

"Why not?" Su Jingyan asked, trying to persuade him. "Are you worried that Chen Jun will still come after you? Chairman Su already promised he'll talk to him!"

Zhang Yue's response was unwavering. "It's over. Let's leave it at that."

Staring at the message from Zhang Yue, Su Jingyan suddenly felt a deep sense of emptiness.

Meanwhile, in a luxurious apartment complex in Linhai City…

Chen Jun had just woken up, slipped into a robe, and stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, lighting a cigarette. Glancing back at the girl lying naked in his bed, he smirked with satisfaction.

Just then, his phone rang.

"Brother Chen, that guy Zhang Yue has left the guild," came Wu Zui's familiar voice on the other end.

Chen Jun chuckled darkly. "A Beastmaster burns through money fast. Without the high salary from Yan Yu Pavilion, let's see how that penniless fool manages to level up."

"Do you think I'll let him off just because he quit the guild?"

Wu Zui asked cautiously, "But Brother Chen, Zhang Yue's really strong. How are we going to deal with him?"

Chen Jun's smile widened. His plan was already in motion. "Don't worry. I have my ways. Even if I can't kill him right away, I'll make sure his life in the otherworld becomes a living hell."
