Chapter 176: Showing His Divine Power in Public, the City God of Guobei County
When Chen Mo used [Wanxiang Tianyin] to bring the weasel spirit back to the county government office, the county magistrate, who learned the news, quickly escaped from his wife's arms. He was stunned when he saw the weasel spirit with a ferocious face and human speech.

After a while, the county magistrate said excitedly: "Mr. Chen is really powerful. I didn't expect that he could deal with the evil spirits in just one night. It's amazing!"

"Sir, please don't be careless. It's still unknown whether this weasel spirit is the one that can harm people!" The speaker was Bi Qing. It turned out that he had sensed an evil spirit moving towards the county government office. He was worried that the county government office would be in trouble so he hurried back. However, he did not expect to see Chen Mo capturing the weasel spirit alive.

You have to know that monsters have various methods, and sometimes it is much more difficult to capture a monster alive than to kill it directly. However, Chen Mo was able to capture this weasel spirit alive, but he himself did not show any injuries. Who is this guy?
Chen Mo only glanced at Bi Qing and then retracted his gaze. He looked at the county magistrate in front of him and quietly used the control ability of the Sharingan. He ordered: "No matter if it is this one that harmed people or not, I plan to execute this weasel spirit in public at noon tomorrow in the vegetable market to appease the people. I'll trouble you to cooperate then!"

The county magistrate's eyes flashed, and he nodded quickly, saying, "Don't worry, sir. Our county government will cooperate to maintain order and notify the people in the city to come and watch!"

Nodding, Chen Mo returned to his room. After talking to Bi Qing for a few words, the county magistrate also went back to rest. Bi Qing looked at the weasel spirit whose limbs were nailed in place by black sticks and could not move, and thought: These black sticks can restrict the movements of the weasel spirit, could they be magic weapons?

Although he was curious, since there was no evil aura on it, it meant it was not an evil weapon. In addition, this object had an owner, so Bi Qing did not pull it out to study it and went straight back into the house.

The next day, although it was not yet noon, the entrance to the vegetable market was already filled with people from the city. They had heard from the night watchmen and yamen runners that a monster was going to be executed here today, so they came to watch the fun.

"The county magistrate is here!"

Following the loud shout of the yamen runner, the crowd consciously made way and looked in the direction where the voice came from. Sure enough, they saw a group of people walking towards this side. What puzzled everyone was why the person walking in front was not the county magistrate, but a handsome young man?

Although everyone was curious, they were soon attracted by another thing, which was the weasel spirit.

"Is this the weasel demon? I heard from the night watchman that this demon came to him to ask for a title last night, and was later rescued by a master. Now that the weasel demon has appeared here, could the master be among the people who came?"

“Isn’t there a Taoist priest with an immortal look in the crowd? Maybe he is the master?”

"Well, it's possible!"

"As expected of a monster, this is the first time I've seen such a big weasel. I don't know how many years have passed."

"Luckily he was caught, otherwise if ordinary people like us were to encounter him, how would we survive?"

"Yes, the county magistrate has never done anything in the past, but today he finally did something good for the people!"

"Now that the monster has been caught and is about to be executed, we can finally live a peaceful life."

"That's right. Because of the monster incident, most of the customers have left. My store is almost unable to make ends meet. If I don't solve this problem, I won't be able to bear it anymore!"

Listening to the people around him talking about him, the weasel would have gotten furious at normal times, but now he was listless. On the one hand, it was because it was approaching noon and the sun's energy was too strong, which was too suppressive for a monster like him. On the other hand, he had been pierced by Chen Mo's black stick all day, leaving him with wounds.

The yamen runners had already built a temporary platform at Caishikou, and Chen Mo and others walked straight up with the weasel spirit.

The county magistrate cleared his throat and said, "I'm sure everyone has seen this weasel spirit, right? What do you think is your chance of winning if you fight it?"

Seeing that everyone was still frightened, the county magistrate continued, "Last night, this beast wanted to harm people, but was finally captured by Master Chen who was beside me. Here, I want to thank Master Chen on behalf of the people of Guobei County. If it weren't for Master Chen's intervention, our Guobei County might still be in dire straits!"

As he said this, the county magistrate bowed deeply towards Chen Mo.

Chen Mo waved his hand and said, "You are too polite, sir!"

Seeing this scene, everyone present looked at Chen Mo in disbelief: How is it possible? The one who captured the weasel spirit was not the Taoist priest, but this handsome young man?
Although it was unbelievable, the county magistrate said so, and the Taoist priest did not refute it. It seemed that this was true? Amazing!
Immediately, everyone's eyes on Chen Mo changed, especially some women, who looked at Chen Mo's extremely handsome face with admiration and respect in their eyes, which made Chen Mo uncomfortable: Damn it, it would be fine if a super beautiful girl admired me, but you vulgar fans should just forget it!
But overall, Chen Mo achieved his goal of becoming famous.

Next, the county magistrate and Chen Mo spoke a few more words, and then, in full view of everyone, they executed the weasel spirit. In order to prevent its corpse from changing, Chen Mo used the [Fireball Technique] on the spot to burn its corpse into ashes.

Chen Mo's act of "showing off his prowess in public" immediately made the people present respect him even more. Many children even regarded Chen Mo as their idol and hoped to become someone like him.

Only Bi Qing looked solemn: What kind of method is this? He clearly has no magic power, demon power, or ghost power, but he can cast this kind of fireball!
Unfortunately, Chen Mo would not give him an answer.

After dealing with the weasel spirit, Chen Mo rejected the invitations of the wealthy businessmen in Guobei County and instead came to the City God Temple at night.

Looking at the City God statue in front of him, Chen Mo smiled and said, "Come out, if you don't come out, I don't mind pulling you out!"

After waiting for a while, just when Chen Mo was getting impatient and wanted to do it himself, a sigh sounded: "Alas, why do you always like to make trouble for me?"

As the voice rang out, a figure slowly walked out of the City God statue. His clothes and appearance were exactly the same as the City God statue. He was none other than the City God of Guobei County.

Chen Mo was not surprised by the other party's appearance. When Chen Mo used the ability of the [Reincarnation Eye] to observe the entire Guobei County yesterday, he observed the extraordinaryness of this City God Temple. There is an energy that is very different from the weasel spirit. The energy is golden. Chen Mo guessed that it might be the power of faith or incense. Since there are monsters, does the City God also exist? It was out of this curiosity that he came here. Just now, he used the ability of the Samsara Eye [Human Path] to check it out. Sure enough, he found that there was a strong soul in the statue of the City God, which led to the following scene.

However, what made Chen Mo slightly confused was what the other party meant.
You guys? Are you looking for trouble with me?

It seems that the City God of Guobei County has misunderstood something. In that case, I might as well explore his memory directly.

Chen Mo directly activated the ability of [Human Way], but soon he frowned, because he found that the effect of [Human Way] was not as good as before. The opponent's soul resistance seemed to be stronger? Yes, the City God is a ghost, and what he cultivates is incense and soul power, so naturally he has a higher resistance to soul attacks!
If one wants to forcibly break through the opponent's soul and explore his memory, it is possible, but that would be considered a soul attack. The City God is a product of the power of soul and incense. Under the attack of one's own [Human Way], the City God might be destroyed.

After thinking about it, Chen Mo stopped [Humanity] and asked, "What do you mean by what you just said?"

The difference in power between Guobei County City God and Chen Mo was too great, so he did not notice Chen Mo's secret actions just now. Hearing this, he was surprised and said, "Before you, many people came to me and asked me for accountability for the demon plague. Aren't you one of them?"

"Are you talking about the people in the city?" Chen Mo asked doubtfully.

"No, the people don't even have time to pray for my protection, how can they hold me accountable? It's some enlightened masters!" explained the City God of Guobei County.

Hearing this, Chen Mo became even more confused: "You mean, a master has come to Guobei County before? Then why are there still monsters in the city?"

“Because these are just small demons in the city, they are all driven here. Only by solving the demon behind the scenes can we truly solve the demon crisis in Guobei County.

Those masters have gone to deal with the demon behind the scenes, but unfortunately none of them have returned. I'm afraid they are in great danger!" The City God sighed.

"Let's not talk about the demon behind the scenes for now. Can you explain to me first why you don't do anything when there is a demon infestation in the city?" Chen Mo did not follow the other party's words to ask, but changed the subject.

Hearing this, the City God did not shy away and said bluntly: "I also want to take action, but I can't. The demon behind the scenes once tried to invade Guobei County. Although I repelled it, I was also injured. The reason why that guy kept sending little demons into the city was to consume my incense power.

The power of my incense is different from the monster's power. Their power can be replenished by themselves, but mine needs the support of believers. As a result, if my power of incense is consumed too much, I won't be able to protect the entire Guobei County next time I encounter the monster's invasion!
so……"

Chen Mo interrupted, "So you choose to sacrifice some people to protect the entire Guobei County?"

Seeing the silence of the City God, Chen Mo sneered: "What kind of high-sounding excuse is that? To put it bluntly, aren't you afraid of death? If you really want to protect the peace of the city, you can completely eliminate the monster behind the scenes at the risk of your own death, or at least severely injure the other party, but you didn't do that, which means that in the final analysis, you are still afraid of death!"

Although he accused him, Chen Mo did not think that the City God did anything wrong. After all, who wants to die when they can live comfortably? Not to mention that the City God has lived here for many years, so it is normal for him to be indifferent to the birth and death of ordinary people.

The expression of the City God of Guobei County became a little unnatural when he heard this. After all, Chen Mo directly spoke out his innermost thoughts, which would make anyone embarrassed. The fact that he did not get angry and attack Chen Mo already made Chen Mo a little surprised.

But Chen Mo didn't know that it was not that the City God of Guobei County was easy to talk to, nor that he had no temper at all, but that he was not sure of Chen Mo's strength.

The entire Guobei County was under the control of the City God. How could he not know about any disturbances around him? The scene of Chen Mo easily capturing the weasel spirit last night had already been seen by the City God!
Like Bi Qing, the City God was afraid of Chen Mo's unknown means. After all, he was able to subdue the weasel demon so easily, so it was obvious that he was quite powerful. If he fought with Chen Mo, it would definitely cost him his not-so-rich offerings. It would be terrible if the demon behind the scenes invaded again!
"Since you have fought with that monster, you should know some details about it, right? Tell me!" Chen Mo suddenly said, and while speaking he secretly used the power of [Sharingan] and [Confusing Mind Technique].

Although Cheng Huang is also a ghost cultivator with a powerful soul, how can he compare with Chen Mo? What's more, Chen Mo also used special means?
After a short while, the City God revealed everything he knew about the monster. It turned out that the monster behind the scenes was a corpse that was transformed into a zombie. Not only did it have demonic powers, but it also had the zombie's invulnerability to swords and guns and immense strength.

Normally, the corpse demon hides in a village more than ten miles away. The village's land temple has been destroyed by the corpse demon, and the people in the village have become food for the corpse demon. He also uses the village as a base to gather small demons within dozens of miles for him to control.

The last time the corpse demon led a group of small demons to attack, the City God led several of his subordinates in a desperate fight. Although he repelled the enemy, he himself was injured, and his subordinates were completely scared out of their wits. Without his subordinates to help him deal with the small demons in the city, he himself did not want to consume too much power from the incense. This caused panic in the city and the small demons caused trouble.

After knowing all this, Chen Mo looked at the City God deeply, then turned and left.

After Chen Mo left for a long time, the City God finally came to his senses. Thinking of the previous scenes, he was extremely shocked: How is it possible? I have always been the only one who uses illusion to control the enemy, and there is actually someone who can control me?

You have to know that he is a specialist in soul power, and he has the power of incense to protect his body. Even if a master who is several levels higher than him is a master, he can't control him. But what is going on now? Could it be that the other party is some great power that has never appeared in the world?
Thinking of this, the City God couldn't help but feel fortunate that he hadn't shown any malicious intent before, otherwise he might not be able to save his life. But it was also good, with such a powerful person in the city, wouldn't Guobei County be safe?
After Chen Mo left the City God Temple, he directly activated the ability of the [Reincarnation Eye], and immediately he could see the 360-degree scene around him. But this was not enough. In a certain direction, Chen Mo's sight kept penetrating and penetrating, and stopped after a long while.

【Flying Thunder God Technique】

Chen Mo's figure disappeared instantly, leaving the City God in the temple slightly stunned.

When Chen Mo appeared again, he had already arrived at a village, which was the village where the City God said the corpse demon was hiding.

Chen Mo’s sudden appearance also startled all the monsters in the village: Human...human?
Although it was unclear how Chen Mo appeared, his human identity could not be faked. For a moment, many little demons became excited and looked at Chen Mo with unfriendly eyes. Some of them even looked drooling.

I don't know which little demon, thinking of the deliciousness of human flesh, finally couldn't resist the temptation and pounced on Chen Mo. The other little demons seemed to have just woken up from a dream at this time, and rushed towards Chen Mo with a ferocious look.
