Awoke As A God After Auto Battling For 1000000 Years

With Zhang Yue publicly killing Liu Sheng.

The members of the Imperial Guild at the scene were all dumbfounded.

When Liu Sheng previously accused Zhang Yue of killing Xu Bei, they were still skeptical.

But now, Zhang Yue killing Liu Sheng was something they witnessed with their own eyes.

The dozen or so professionals from the Imperial Guild at the scene immediately pointed their weapons at Zhang Yue, but none dared to make a move. They could only exclaim:"You... you actually attacked the president and vice president of our Imperial Guild in public! Zero, are you insane?"

"That's right! We specifically came from Longcheng City to Tianjing to protect you, and this is how you repay us? Why would you do such a thing."

Zhang Yue didn't bother explaining.

Because words are useless.

The only way was to resurrect Xu Bei and let him speak the truth himself. That would be more convincing.

So, without saying a word, Zhang Yue approached Liu Sheng's corpse.

The Imperial Guild members thought Zhang Yue intended to kill them all to silence witnesses after killing Liu Sheng.

They instinctively backed away.

Zhang Yue walked up to Liu Sheng's body and picked up the resurrection scroll that had dropped.

But when he looked at the scroll in his hand, his heart sank.

He realized it was just an ordinary resurrection scroll, not the one containing Xu Bei's sealed soul.

But Zhang Yue had clearly seen Liu Sheng take Xu Bei's scroll and carry it on him.

According to the rules of the Monster Nest dungeon, if a professional carrying a scroll with another's sealed soul dies, the scroll will definitely drop.

Since Liu Sheng's scroll didn't drop, there could only be one explanation...

"So, you were smart enough to leave yourself a way out."

Zhang Yue muttered as he looked at Liu Sheng's corpse.

Clearly, during the earlier chase, Liu Sheng had found an opportunity to pass Xu Bei's scroll to someone else.

["Perfect, Guild Leader!"] At this moment, Ouyang Ling'er suddenly sent Zhang Yue a message:["You still had a chance to explain earlier, but now, it's confirmed—you've been framed for killing Xu Bei and the Imperial Guild's God of Death. The crimes are all on your shoulders now."]

["Impressive! That's just like you!"]

Zhang Yue frowned slightly: ["Why are you haunting me like a ghost?"]

He didn't need to guess—Ouyang Ling'er's hired private detective was surely lurking nearby.

["I paid double to hire a detective willing to enter the dungeon!"]

Ouyang Ling'er said: ["I originally wanted him to collect evidence inside, but he didn't make it in time. So, Guild Leader, what happened? Did you really kill Xu Bei? Why did you kill this Imperial God of Death?"]

["Enough already!"],Zhang Yue replied:["When I needed your detective, he wasn't around. When I don't need him, he's spying on me. Was your so-called 'Imperial Guild surveillance' just an excuse to spy on me?"]

["What kind of accusation is that! Guild Leader, you should focus on getting out of this situation. Don't die! If you die, who's going to reimburse me for the detective fees?"]

Zhang Yue closed the communication and stood up, heading directly for the dungeon exit.

The Imperial Guild members at the scene didn't dare to stop him.

Before leaving the dungeon, Zhang Yue even managed to kill enough S-rank monsters to complete the dungeon mission.

[Ding~ Congratulations, Professional [Zero], for completing the dungeon mission and clearing the [Monster Nest] dungeon. Rewards: 10 million experience points, 200 gold coins, 50 billion energy points, and 2,000 [Universal Monster Indexes]]

After completing the mission, Zhang Yue left the dungeon.

———

On the other side.

The Imperial Guild members used a resurrection scroll to preserve Liu Sheng's body and brought it back to the revival spring in Mechanical City to resurrect him.

Once revived, Liu Sheng immediately feigned terror in front of his guild members:"That Zero is truly insidious! He actually assassinated Xu Bei and me during the dungeon mission."

The Imperial Guild members still found it hard to believe:"But what was his motive for killing you two?"

"He's clearly envious of the Guild Leader's status and position!"

Liu Sheng said angrily:"That guy is just some nobody from a backwater area. How could he not envy the Guild Leader of the Imperial Guild, who is also the Ice Emperor's apprentice?"

"Besides, didn't you all see it with your own eyes? He killed me right in front of you. Isn't that proof enough?"

"Quick, report this matter to the guild higher-ups immediately."

While instructing his subordinates to spread the news, Liu Sheng secretly smiled sinisterly.

"Luckily, I was smart enough to pass Xu Bei's resurrection scroll to someone else before getting caught. Otherwise, if it had been exposed, the plan would've been ruined."

"Now that Xu Bei is dead, Zero, you won't be able to clear your name. Prepare to face the Imperial Guild's wrath."

Thinking this, Liu Sheng secretly contacted the assassin he had handed the scroll to earlier.

"How's it going? Did you get the scroll out?"

But after a long wait, there was no reply.

He contacted other assassins and learned that all the assassins had exited the dungeon, except for the ones he had entrusted with Xu Bei's resurrection scroll, who had vanished.

"Gone? Where could they have gone?"

"Could Zero have discovered them and killed them?"

Liu Sheng suddenly panicked but quickly dismissed the thought.

The Imperial Guild members had told him earlier: after killing him, Zhang Yue completed the dungeon mission and left without doing anything else.

"Or could they have been intercepted by another professional in the dungeon?"

Liu Sheng muttered to himself:"That's unlikely. Those assassins weren't top-tier, but they were strong enough that ordinary players wouldn't stand a chance against them. Besides, apart from our guild, there shouldn't have been any other players in the dungeon..."

At this moment, an assassin replied:"We thoroughly searched the dungeon before leaving and found no trace of the missing team—not even their bodies."

"My guess? They were probably attacked by corpse eaters."

Corpse eaters were a type of boss monster in the Monster Nest, known for devouring the bodies of the players they killed.

Most importantly, corpse eaters always moved in groups with formidable team strength.

Liu Sheng knew this well because he had encountered a group of corpse eaters during the dungeon mission.

But those corpse eaters had been instantly wiped out by Zhang Yue.

If they had encountered corpse eaters, it would make sense.

Liu Sheng didn't dwell on it. As long as Xu Bei's scroll didn't surface, the plan was a success.

———

Meanwhile, Liu Sheng reported Xu Bei's death at Zhang Yue's hands to the Imperial Guild higher-ups.

The guild's vice president and Xu Bei's adoptive father, Xu Aiguo, mourned before the senior executives:"I sent my son to Tianjing to protect Zero, but Zero killed him."

"My son! My Xu Bei! You died so unjustly!"

The senior guild members were in disbelief.

"Zero, as this year's top rising professional and someone with no grudge against our guild, has no reason to do this."

"I looked into his background. He's an ordinary man from a small province who rose through hard work. He has no prior bad behavior or reason for such actions."

Xu Aiguo slammed the table, roaring:"YOUR SONS WEREN'T KILLED! Of course, it's easy for you to talk!"

"Zero used the dungeon's permanent death mechanic to erase my son and even killed Vice President Liu Sheng. Many saw it happen. Do you still doubt it?"

Raging, Xu Aiguo shouted:"Send the guild's main forces to Tianjing immediately and execute Zero!"
