Chapter 78 The Mountain God Has Arrived, Everyone Get Out of the Way
"Sorry, officer."
Yunniang adjusted her breathing and casually wiped the bloodstains from her face.
She turned around and handed the long knife back to the charcoal-headed constable with both hands.
"No, it's nothing."
Chang Yi took the knife, wanting to say something, but found that Yunniang had already looked away and was looking at the lazy, reclining figure.
He wisely stood aside, knife in hand.
"Thank you—my benefactor."
Yunniang bit her lip, tried to wipe her face clean with her sleeve, and walked up to the young man with red eyes.
She had so much to say, but it all got stuck in her throat.
Since her parents died, she has never experienced being loved.
Even after they came to Xicheng, she still played the role of the backbone of the family, doing the most housework and washing more clothes in order to barely support herself and her crazy old mother-in-law.
Only this man in front of her had always protected her from the moment they first met.
"Go wash up first."
""
Lin Shu slowly stood up and nodded to the guy with the precious sword next to her.
"Understood!" Chang Yi consciously put away his knife. It was the usual practice for Brother Lin to kill someone and he would be responsible for collecting the body.
The number of corpses that needed to be collected was not only increasing, but their strength was also exceeding his expectations.
Now that the Blackwater Gang has been almost completely wiped out, this city is finally going to get better!
"Officer, I'll help too." Dong Cheng, with his keen eye, jumped into the woodshed and helped drag the corpses off the ground one by one.
He glanced out of the corner of his eye at the two other mortals among the pile of corpses, besides the Cheng couple.
They looked miserable, yet they died silently.
Liu Chuan, you dare to meddle in Master Lin's affairs?
Dong Cheng had followed Lin Shu for so long that he had come to know her somewhat.
Although their methods were ruthless, they always seemed to have a strange sense of pity for ordinary people.
No, pity seems too lofty and inappropriate.
It's probably the kind of thing where matters of the underworld are left to the underworld; once you're out of that circle, you shouldn't involve innocent people in your bottom line.
Anyway, in all this time, Liu Chuan, Bi'er, and Dong Cheng were the only ones who had ever seen Master Lin take action against a mortal.
He's really asking for it; no one can stop him.
"call."
Gu Nanzhi jumped down from the high wall and came into the courtyard.
This time, she surprisingly did not reprimand Chang Yi for his recklessness.
After all, if we're talking about being reckless, my trip to Beicheng with Lin Shu wasn't much better.
Moreover, she only risked her life to attack after sensing the immortal descendant, but Yi'er genuinely broke into this wood-burning courtyard.
His actions were surely observed by the immortals.
This time, it's the Chang family's turn to benefit from their good son.
"I just sensed the aura of inner cultivation on her. Actually, wouldn't it be better to leave the Cheng family here and let her cultivate to a certain level before coming back to take action herself?"
Gu Nanzhi looked towards the kitchen.
Many immortals train their disciples in this way.
"Revenge is revenge; don't overcomplicate it."
Lin Shu casually replied that this was the reason why he had shown appreciation in his eyes earlier.
Revenge is a very pure thing.
It is an outpouring of emotions, an explanation to the deceased.
Of course, we must use any means necessary and seize every opportunity.
It's not difficult to let the Cheng couple live one more day, but who can give her parents another moment of life?
Upon hearing this...
Gu Nanzhi smiled but did not refute.
She gathered her thoughts, unable to contain the excitement in her eyes any longer: "Now, can I see her?"
After Lin Shu asked the little guy for his opinion through her divine sense, she gestured with her eyes for the county constable to look towards the side room.
"Heh."
Gu Nanzhi took a deep breath, completely ignoring the fact that there were still people from the Fierce Wolf Hall in the courtyard.
She walked straight to the side room, lifted her clothes, and then respectfully knelt on the ground.
"Huh?" Yan Jin snapped out of her daze and stared at her fellow disciple with a puzzled look. Bai Feng, having also confirmed that he was still alive, numbly cast her gaze over.
"The Chen family of Anren Prefecture, Yongzhou, whose members are corrupt and worldly, Gu Nanzhi, humbly begs the Immortal to grant them an audience!"
As she spoke, Gu Nanzhi bowed deeply.
That simple sentence left everyone in the room, except for Lin Shu and Yun Niang, in a daze with unfocused pupils.
In the small city of Blackwater, within this dilapidated courtyard, a celestial being actually resides?!
Even Chang Yi and Dong Cheng, who had never left the city, were stiff and looked over with a mixture of tension and anticipation.
The door creaked open as it was pushed open.
The petite figure walked calmly through the courtyard gate and stood tall in front of Gu Nanzhi.
The moment she appeared, everyone held their breath, their expressions filled with shock, instinctively wanting to prostrate themselves on the ground like the county magistrate.
59
Gu Nanzhi stared at the delicate, white bare feet in her line of sight, and her heart suddenly began to pound violently.
Boom!Boom!Boom!
Those were clearly the soles of a baby's feet.
She raised her head blankly and looked at the figure who was still wearing a bellyband, her gaze lingering on the other person's youthful face.
The next moment, fear swept over her like a tidal wave.
Gu Nanzhi's arms trembled slightly, and beads of sweat seeped out, soaking her vest.
There was no Core Formation Immortal Descendant as I had imagined —
To be precise, she had never seen a celestial being like this before. There should never be a celestial being walking among mortals in such a form!
The other party wasn't even a child.
Gu Nanzhi felt as absurdly as if she had seen an egg hopping and jumping out of the ground.
However, the egg cannot move.
Even a celestial being in this state shouldn't be touched.
The other party must be absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth while asleep, waiting for the moment when it is fully grown.
There was no divine intervention at all—from beginning to end, it was just Lin Shu alone!
Thinking of this, Gu Nanzhi felt a wave of fear and trepidation, her body almost going limp.
Those scenes from not long ago quickly flooded my mind.
Kill the mountain-slaying dragon, take the magic weapon, and then fight the remaining two dragons alone.
Throughout the entire process, she thought that there were immortals watching from the shadows, but for Lin Shu, the only one she could rely on was the other party himself.
She turned around in disbelief, staring intently at the slender figure.
Without the intervention of the immortals, everything this young man did, as well as his decisiveness and composure in doing so, took on a completely different meaning!
"Yan Jin, a wicked man of this world, pays his respects to the Mountain God!"
Yan Jin glared at Gu Nanzhi with trepidation. She couldn't understand how this woman, who was quite experienced, dared to lose her composure in front of the immortals.
She knelt down with a thud and bowed to the porcelain doll.
The undergarment the other person was wearing had already revealed their identity.
Riding the wind, with the mountains and rivers of Yongzhou as my wutong tree, I am the incarnation of a blue phoenix, a descendant of the mountain god of my family.
Having received Yan Jin's warning, Gu Nanzhi finally came to her senses and hurriedly lowered her head, no longer daring to look directly at this immortal being: "On behalf of all the people of this city, I shamelessly beg you, now that Blackwater City has been opened, I humbly request the Mountain God—"
"No need for further explanation, I already know."
Yu Sheng, with her hands behind her back, said calmly, "Get up, everyone."
While the others looked away in awe, the little guy secretly winked at Lin Shu.
Hehe, I told you long ago, the Yu family is really powerful!
'
'
Lin Shu rolled her eyes at her, too lazy to pay any attention.
All he wanted to know was whether Yu Sheng had the ability to solve this problem for Blackwater City.
"Don't worry, it's nothing."
Yu Sheng responded with divine sense; she didn't need to know which family's immortal descendants were trapping Blackwater City.
Because no matter which family it is, none can compare to the Yu family in Yongzhou.
"Thank you, Mountain God, for your mercy!"
Sure enough, upon hearing Yu Sheng's response, Gu Nanzhi felt a great weight lifted off her shoulders, and her face showed no trace of worry.
Of all the civil officials in Yongzhou, nearly 40% came from the Yu family, and they were spread throughout the province.
This is not as simple as one company having a monopoly.
It can be said that the Yu family's opinion completely represents the state government, and their words are more effective than the orders issued by the governor dispatched by the imperial court.
And resolving the Blackwater City issue happens to be something they excel at.
"But I have one request."
The cub, dressed in a bib, waved and then changed the subject.
Upon hearing this, Gu Nanzhi, who was about to get up, quickly stopped: "Please give your instructions."
Even though the immortal descendant before them was somewhat too young, the lives of the entire city depended on him alone, and the government had to do everything in its power to meet any request.
"You are not allowed to do that again!"
Yu Sheng crossed her arms over her chest, puffing out her cheeks: "Yes, that's it."
"Well.
""
Gu Nanzhi's expression changed slightly, looking somewhat bewildered.
She guessed many things, but after thinking it over and over, she still couldn't figure out what kind of request it was.
"Disciple, disciple obeys!"
