Evergreen Immortal..

Chapter 79: The Mother of Ten Thousand Ghosts
County government.

Side hall.

Familiar place, same familiar people.

Magistrate Zhang was beaming with joy: "The Ghost Sect is the cancer of the empire, the remnant of the previous dynasty, with a heart of restoration and constant murder. Thank you for your support, so that we can eradicate these evil people of the Ghost Sect in one fell swoop."

He spoke several thousand words in a very eloquent manner.

Except for a few educated family heads, most of them are rough men who practice martial arts.

I really have no interest in these quibbles.

The leader of the Chai Gang even dozed off while listening.

If Magistrate Zhang hadn't been unable to tolerate the thunderous snoring, they could have continued talking for another hour.

He frowned and glared at the leader of the Chai Gang, then asked the leader of the Yu Gang nearby to wake up the man.

"In short"

After hearing these four words, those who were familiar with County Magistrate Zhang knew that it was finally over.

I couldn't help but sit up straight.

"There are still many demons of the Ghost Sect scattered outside, and they will definitely wait for an opportunity to retaliate. I hope you will not take it lightly."

When everyone present heard this, they all sneered in their hearts.

The county government really has a good plan.

It was the government that wanted to wipe out the Ghost Cult, and it is also the government that is now turning a blind eye.

Last night's campaign to siege the Ghost Cult was not smooth.

The number of monsters raised far exceeded everyone's expectations, and many people were killed and injured on all sides. Although the Ghost Cult was generally eradicated, masters like Ghost Face Knife were still on the run.

These people will turn into poisonous snakes and may bite people at any time.

That's the most troublesome thing.

But Magistrate Zhang looked as if he didn't intend to continue to take charge.

The leader of the horse gang was the first to get impatient: "Master Zhang, the government asked us to do this, and now you want to just walk away?"

"Hu Liu, who gave you the courage to speak to me like this?"

Magistrate Zhang's face changed suddenly. He was pleasant one moment and furious the next. His official authority made Hu Liu, the leader of the Chai Gang, overwhelmed.

Seeing Hu Liu shrinking back, he sat back.

County Magistrate Zhang then snorted and thought to himself:
"You are just a lousy woodcutter, and you dare to yell at me?"

"I respect you because you are the leader of a gang. I can make your gang starve for a year with just a word from you."

He glanced at everyone in the hall:
"Everyone, do you have any comments?"

Among those present was Zhu Ping, the head of the Zhu family.

The Zhu family also contributed to the destruction of the Ghost Cult this time.

He glanced at Song Zhenyuan, Tang Sheng and Peng Hu who were sitting at the top and sighed softly.

Obviously, County Magistrate Zhang should have reached some kind of agreement with the three parties.

If those three don't step forward, the other forces will be easily controlled by County Magistrate Zhang.

They all beg for food in Qinghe. If they offend the government, they will have a hard time in the future.

Magistrate Zhang is quite good at adapting his approach to different people.

Apart from the Huaqing Sect, the Tiandi League and the Blood Tiger Gang, everyone else can only regard it as voluntary labor, just as a way to please the county magistrate to avoid being bullied.

"Fortunately, Yue'er is in Huaqing Sect."

This morning, Magistrate Zhang had already informed the Zhu family that they would be given a separate compensation.

It's good to have someone in the court.

The status of Huaqing Sect in Anning is no worse than that of the government office.

Seeing that no one was talking, Magistrate Zhang smiled with satisfaction: "Then let's disperse."

What he wants is political achievements.

Used to please superiors and gain a better official position.

He didn't care at all whether the Ghost Sect was completely wiped out or not. As long as there was an overall victory, it would be enough to report to the prefect.

As for the counterattack of the Ghost Cult?

That is not something that he, as the county magistrate, needs to worry about.

Anyway, there are enough experts in the county government, and he lives in the county government.

He was not worried. Hua Qingzong and his group walked back to Zhu's house.

Because of Zhu Yue, Song Zhenyuan also moved into the Zhu family with several disciples of the Huaqing Sect.

After all, compared to other places, the Zhu family is half-family, so it is convenient to talk and there is no need to worry about people eavesdropping on them all the time.

Song Zhenyuan was also in a good mood.

It was the same for him. Coming to Qinghe was just a task assigned by the sect. As long as he completed it on the surface, it would be fine.

The real purpose is actually to obtain the fairy treasure.

"Jiang, nephew, is there any news about Elder Jiang?"

A battle last night.

The strength of the Ghost Cult exceeded everyone's expectations. They even raised five seventh-level monsters. Fortunately, Jiang Linxian took action.

Five Swords.

With just five swords, the five monsters were pierced through the heart by the flying swords cleanly and neatly, without even a chance to resist.

The people who surrounded her didn't even see Jiang Linxian.

What is the style of a sword immortal?

Jiang Yan said, "The Ghost Mother of the Ghost Sect escaped with the immortal treasure, and my father went to chase her."

The mother of all ghosts.

A hint of fear flashed across Song Zhenyuan's eyes.

The Ghost Sect is very big.

They are scattered across many places in the State of Yu, with complicated forces. In the area of ​​Anning Prefecture, the leader is a woman nicknamed the Mother of Ten Thousand Ghosts.

The strength is impressive.

Of course, for Jiang Linxian it was just a matter of slashing two more times with the sword.

The reason why Jiang Linxian had been searching for so long was because the Mother of Ten Thousand Ghosts was an expert in disguise and often blended in with the crowd, making her extremely difficult to be found.

It was precisely by relying on this superb disguise technique that he was able to steal the fairy treasure.

Song Zhenyuan thought for a moment and said, "Since Elder Jiang is here, if we continue to stay in Qinghe, it will only delay our practice. The Ghost Sect has been eradicated, so we should return to Huaqing Sect as soon as possible to report."

"Ah."

Everyone nodded in unison.

No one wanted to stay in Qinghe.

On the one hand, as Song Zhenyuan said, they came out for a mission and only by returning could they practice better. On the other hand, they knew very well that the counterattack of the Ghost Cult would come soon.

If I continue to stay in Qinghe, I may be assassinated at any time.

"Pack your things and gather in half an hour."

Song Zhenyuan gave the order and then turned back to his room.

Everyone dispersed.

Zhu Yue's eyes were dark.

Among all the people in Huaqing Sect, he is the only one who has a family in Qinghe.

The Zhu family also participated in last night's encirclement and suppression, and will definitely become the target of assassination by the Ghost Cult.

If he were to leave now and something happened, he would be criticized.

A disciple who was familiar with Zhu Yue saw Zhu Yue's doubts:

"Brother Zhu, as martial artists, we should have cut off worldly ties long ago. These things are not long-lasting and will only increase our weaknesses."

He has this idea.

There are quite a few such people in Huaqing Sect. Many martial artists are heartless and have only one desire. They are devoted to the pursuit of truth and have very weak relationships with their families.

Zhu Yue frowned slightly.

Worrying about the Zhu family was only one of his concerns. What he was more worried about was actually his reputation.

At this time, Han Qin also spoke up: "Junior Brother Zhu, don't worry too much. The Zhu family should not be the main assassination target of the Ghost Sect. Besides, after you return to the sect, you can spend some money to hire someone to guard it, which is more useful than staying here."

After being comforted by Han Qin, Zhu Yue's mood immediately improved a lot.

He smiled:
"Senior Brother Han is right."

On that day, Hua Qingzong and his entourage left Qinghe City.
