Chapter 11 The Runaway Child
Su Mian laughed, "Then the Immortal Master can play by himself...does your disciple need me to send servants to serve him?"

"No need." Shen Yao smiled, ignoring the City Lord's embarrassment, "The City Lord can teach your young master when you have time."

City Lord: ...Which pot should not be opened?

Isn't this just scolding him for not being able to teach his son well? But thinking about Shen Yao's status and what he had incited his son to do, when he woke up today he was so angry that he beat a boy to death. Naturally, he was unhappy with being treated like that last night. Very soon, when Su Mian looked at him today, he was devouring the life force of the boy, with a look of reluctance on his face, "Father, why?"

He had no choice but to comfort Su Qian, saying that Shen Yao was ignorant, so he came here to inquire about Shen Yao's attitude. He was relieved when he saw that Shen Yao just expressed his feelings. It seemed that he just wouldn't accept Su Qian, and there was no particularly big punishment. .

Of course there will be no greater punishment, after all, there is nothing more severe than not being able to practice again.

When Shen Yao went out, Liangcheng was still bustling. The old man frying sugar-oiled fruits handed her a bunch of sugar-oiled fruits. Shen Yao took it and smiled at the old man. The old man was a little flattered, as if he had been blessed. Shen Yao ate it. After taking a sip, he asked the old man, "Old man, do you know about the plague some time ago?"

"Oh, this is all thanks to the city lord. When he got sick, he immediately found a doctor to study a good cure, and he quickly cured this strange disease." The old man said seriously, his eyes full of reverence, " If it weren’t for the city lord, we would still be sick now.”

"So that's it. City Lord Su is indeed a 'respectable' person." Shen Yao smiled, "I heard that this disease has the sequelae of not sleeping well at night. I wonder how you slept?"

"Hey, there are no side effects. I slept very well!" The old man said with a smile, "I'm just a little tired when I get up, but this is an old problem."

"Okay, thank you." Shen Yao thanked the old man and turned to leave, sighing slightly in his heart.These people are already having a hard time living, and they still have no peace in the middle of the night because of the plague.Shen Yao took a bite of the sugar-oiled fruit, walked around pretending to be serious and exploring the local customs, and stopped in a secluded place.

"How much longer are you going to follow?"

"..." A head slowly appeared behind him. His face was wrapped with a strip of cloth. He should have treated the wound on his face. It was the young boy from yesterday. Shen Yao thought about it for a while before remembering that his name was A Sheng. "Not You gone?"

A Sheng was silent for a while, "Immortal Lord...are you accepting a disciple?"

The only apprentice position I have now is for the male lead.Shen Yao cursed for a long time, but he didn't want to dampen the child's enthusiasm. He knelt down and said, "Xuanqing Sect will have a disciple recruitment meeting next month. If you can practice, go there and try."

"Are you from the Xuanqing Sect?" Ah Sheng did not express any regret or frustration, "Okay, thank you."

"Yes." Shen Yao touched his hair. It felt very soft. She couldn't help but rub it twice more before saying slowly, "Go away and don't come back again."

Asheng nodded, and the little figure climbed over the wall and left easily.

When Shen Yao walked out of the alley, the street suddenly became noisy. She leaned to the side of the road, and the next second she saw a group of children in shabby clothes running there, as if there were beasts chasing behind them.Pedestrians on the street were watching the excitement, and there were comments from time to time. There were too many people watching the excitement, and Shen Yao was pushed to the side of the road. Perhaps he was too outstanding, and the group of children rushed over, "Sister, save me." Save us, someone is trying to kill us.”

Shen Yao:......

These seemed to be the children Su Mian was talking about who escaped last night. She finished the sugar-oiled fruit in several mouthfuls, and the children gathered around her, trembling with fear.

Passersby saw the children crying and came to comfort them, "Don't cry, this is the Immortal of the Xuanqing Sect. He will definitely protect you when he comes here."

In a short time, a group of people wearing coarse clothes rushed over. Shen Yao could tell at a glance that these people had spiritual powers and were only dressed like civilians. When he saw the children gathered around Shen Yao, they looked at each other and exchanged words. After a few glances, someone came over and clasped his fists: "Immortal Lord, forgive me for disturbing you. We are from the Salesian Home in the city. These children escaped naughtily. We are looking for them everywhere... I didn't expect them to be so noisy and disturbing. Got you."

"You fart!" The first person to speak was a girl with a double bun. She was also the first to approach Shen Yao. She huddled behind Shen Yao and complained, "You are going to kill us! If it weren't for Brother Asheng We would have been dead a long time ago!”

I am still young and cannot fully tell their evil deeds. I can only briefly say that these people want to kill them. How can I win the trust of others?
"You see, they wasted food and got beaten a few days ago. They may have been beaten a little too hard. After all, they want to make people remember. Now they are holding a grudge and starting to slander. Children are naughty by nature and talk nonsense. Don't get me wrong." The leader apologized with a smile and told the people behind him, "Take them all back. Don't come out and cause trouble in one day."

Life is not easy for everyone. Wasting food is the most disliked crime for ordinary people, and being beaten and slandered is something a bad boy can do. People started whispering, and some even came to persuade Shen Yao, "Immortal Lord, These kids are trying to trick you with lies, don’t believe them.”

The children felt aggrieved when they heard this, and loudly argued that these people were bad people. Shen Yao's ears hurt hearing the mixed arguments mixed with the persuasion of passers-by, "Since they are homeless orphans, I decided to adopt them." Return to Xuanqing Sect."

"No!" The leader refused flatly, but later remembered that it was not okay to speak like this, "We understand the Immortal Lord's kindness, but none of them have the talent to practice, and it is just a waste of money for you to bring them back to the Xuanqing Sect. We can educate them enough... I won’t bother you too much.”

"Isn't Xuanqingzong bad? They can benefit Liangcheng after they learn something, and they are really as bad as you said. I can educate them well, right?" Shen Yao smiled, "On weekdays, Xuanqingzong But you can’t get in even if you ask, but you are quite interesting.”

As soon as these words came out, the pedestrians also whispered to each other. The leader also knew that his reason was far-fetched. Although the current Shen Yao was not the one they wanted to confront, for the sake of the grand plan, they still had to risk offending her to bring them back. Without further words, he signaled those behind him to take away the children, but fortunately Shen Yao did not stop him.

The children had despair on their faces, and some had begun to cry in despair. Shen Yao turned around and left, and the crowd dispersed.

[Why not save him? It’s not like he can’t be beaten. 】The system finally lifted the ban. God knows how long it has been holding it in. 【Do you know】You met the young male protagonist and saved him. Why didn't you accept a disciple?

[You are an advanced artificial intelligence after all, why are you so stupid. ] Shen Yao interrupted the system, [When you started, did you want everyone to know that they bite people in the middle of the night?And there are so many people, why would you go crazy and seize random strangers as hostages? 】

The system thought about what Shen Yao said, and it seemed to make sense, so it forgot to tell Shen Yao about it.
