Redemption of a Born Demon

Chapter 205 - 193: Not a Traitor, but a Lone Hero Against the World

"Did the club president get her account hacked?"

"Did the president forget to take her meds today?"

"Senior, please, stop with the Divine Powers!"

"..."

Everyone in the group chat teased her in astonishment.

Jiang Yiyang also found it strange. ’What’s up with Shen Jiayue?’

He was about to send her a private message to ask what was going on when he saw Shen Jiayue post in the group again. This time, it was a forwarded collection of chat logs.

’Don’t tell me she really was hacked and just posted a trojan horse in the group chat.’

Jiang Yiyang muttered to himself, but he clicked on the collection of chat logs anyway.

Inside were some chat logs, screenshots from foreign social media apps, and a few videos.

As he looked through the content, Jiang Yiyang’s jaw gradually dropped, his expression turning dazed.

He finally understood why Shen Jiayue had sent so many exclamation points at once.

Yi Beidou had appeared alone at the All Martial Arts Conference venue in Japan’s Changqi County and, under the watchful eyes of the public, defeated two Japanese Martial Saints.

Not only that, he had even clashed head-on with dozens of fully armed Japanese soldiers, weathering a storm of bullets to kill a Japanese Martial Saint on the spot.

Forget Shen Jiayue—upon seeing this news, Jiang Yiyang himself felt a jolt run through his body, his scalp tingling.

A major incident, a truly major incident!!

’Mr. Yi actually went to Japan?!’

He took a deep breath, saved the screenshots and videos, then exited the current screen and returned to the group chat.

At that very moment, the entire group chat had exploded.

It wasn’t just the Dechang University Martial Arts Club group chat. As the relevant information spread, related circles all across Donghua exploded.

"Holy shit! Mr. Yi appeared at the All Martial Arts Conference in Japan?!! For real?!"

"How could it be fake? Didn’t you see his signature Demon Flame in the video? In this world, who else besides Mr. Yi has that kind of power?"

"Damn, withstanding bullets with his body?! That’s insane, just completely insane! I’ve read about this before. I thought even the body of a Saint would have a hard time taking bullets head-on."

"Goes without saying! It’s because Mr. Yi is just that strong! He’s the number one Saint Expert of the new generation. Of course he’s special! If it’s him, forget withstanding bullets—I wouldn’t even be surprised if he took an RPG head-on one day!"

"So satisfying, so damn satisfying! Those bastards in Japan are always trying to copy us, wanting to hold some All Martial Arts Conference. They even sent a Saint into our Donghua with malicious intent before. Now they know how powerful the Donghua Martial Arts Dao is, don’t they?"

"..."

Various discussion groups online were in an uproar.

Donghua and Japan could be described as generational enemies, so what Yi Beidou had done now made countless people feel vindicated and proud.

Of course, there were also some discordant voices among the crowd.

"Why did he have to kill someone? This is an act that damages international relations. It’s too barbaric and violent. When others came to our Donghua, we didn’t see any killing, did we? Does reaching the Saint Realm mean you can just do whatever you want?"

"Exactly. We’re a country dedicated to peaceful development. This kind of behavior is terrible for our international image. What if it actually starts a war? Do you really think the Western World will just let us do whatever we want?"

"They were caught off guard. What’s so strange about defeating two Saint Experts? It was just a surprise attack. On the contrary, this kind of action will definitely infuriate Japan. I bet this Mr. Yi is being hunted by the entire country right now. His chances of escaping alive are probably slim. What’s the use of Body Ascension? The most important thing for a human is to have a brain."

"..."

The country has never been short of the "sober party" and the "rational and objective," nor is there a lack of people who are used to kneeling.

The two sides quickly started a flame war. Donghua doesn’t have many real Sword Immortals, but "Key Immortals" are everywhere.

But soon, amidst these discordant comments, some of the more rational netizens also noticed something wasn’t right.

What Yi Beidou did was certainly satisfying, but there were also many things about it that didn’t make sense.

For example, the fact that he appeared in Japan all by himself this time, instead of with a group of Donghua’s Saint Experts, was highly unusual.

And Yi Beidou’s actions in Japan—forcing his way into the All Martial Arts Conference, confronting the Japanese army, and even killing a Japanese Martial Saint—were all indeed a bit too extreme.

It wasn’t just a matter of being dangerous. Given Yi Beidou’s current status, to put it bluntly, his actions could very well become the trigger for a war between nations and could be seen as an act of aggression or a terrorist attack.

Considering Donghua’s consistent policies, it should have been impossible for things to go this far.

So, numerous netizens began to show off their own skills, searching for all sorts of clues and traces.

Soon, some netizens actually managed to find a key piece of evidence.

A wanted poster was posted online by an eager netizen and spread rapidly.

S-Class Wanted Notice: Yi Beidou, male, 28 years old...

The moment this wanted notice appeared, it immediately set off a thousand-layered wave in Donghua.

"What?! An S-class wanted notice? Yi Beidou defected?! Is this real or fake?!"

"Who photoshopped this?! This can’t be real, can it? What reason would Mr. Yi have to defect?"

"It’s not photoshopped. The wanted notice was issued a few days ago, but the authorities must have deliberately suppressed the news and public discussion, so most people don’t know about it. If you don’t believe me, you can check the official website yourself. The URL is..."

"..."

Many people found this fact hard to accept. After all, not long ago, Yi Beidou was the hero who had repelled foreign Martial Artists, the expert hailed as number one in the world’s new generation, the pride of countless Donghua People. But now, he had betrayed his country.
