Chapter 105 No Fighting

Cang Jin's expression darkened slightly, and he felt a strong urge to kill. Whatever he wanted to do by luring him to the north of the city, it wouldn't be a good thing, and killing him would certainly not be unjust.

If she were sitting on the Immortal Emperor's dragon throne right now, she would probably order this guy to be dragged out and beheaded without hesitation!

But as soon as his temper flared up, he immediately suppressed it with reason.

What place is this? It's Wangjiang Tower, the best restaurant in Jiangzhou.

Right next to it is the confluence of the two rivers. This place is a melting pot of all sorts of people, and every gang has its own informants. There was even a junior constable sitting at the next table.

If she were to commit murder here, would she still expect to go on a blind date in Jiangzhou?

She recalled what Hua Mingyuan had said to Honglin that night: if she maintained her usual temper when going on blind dates, she would probably never succeed.

"snort!"

Cang Jin snorted coldly. Fine, consider him lucky. She glanced at Yu Song with disdain and turned to leave.

Yu Song quickly stood up, wanting to chase after him, but the innkeeper blocked his way: "Hero, please settle your bill—"

,

Yu Song glared at the innkeeper with annoyance, but he didn't dare to renege on his debt. This Wangjiang Tower was protected by the Jinzhu Gang, and he dared not offend the Jinzhu Gang for two taels of silver for a meal. So he had no choice but to obediently take out some loose silver to pay the bill.

When I looked up again, Cang Jin was already far away.

Yu Song could only vent his anger on Li Gu: "Where did this blind fool come from, daring to meddle in my business?"

Li Gu shrugged: "Oh dear, I really shouldn't have interfered. They left without even thanking me."

Meng Ting chuckled beside her, "Senior Brother Li, you don't need anyone to thank you for doing good deeds. That's the spirit of a true hero."

Li Gu: "I may refuse, but she can't refuse. It's basic etiquette. That woman is really impolite."

.

Meng Ting stuck out her tongue: "I think that lady seems to be a well-mannered person. Maybe she was angered by this bad man. She'll probably come back to thank Senior Brother Li when she gets back."

The two ignored Yu Song and started chatting amongst themselves.

Yu Song was even angrier and slammed his fist on the table, ready to lash out.

Just then, Li Gu said sarcastically, "Master Yu, it seems you've forgotten the rules of Jiangzhou. Committing a crime on someone else's turf can easily lead to trouble. This Wangjiang Tower should be the territory of the Jinzhu Gang. The last rogue cultivator who killed a night watchman on Jinzhu Gang's territory had his limbs broken in front of the whole city. I wonder if you remember him?"

After saying that, Li Gu chuckled and said, "I don't think the Golden Bamboo Gang will care if you just pick up girls in their territory, but if you use this place as a place for swindling and cheating, the Golden Bamboo Gang will definitely not stand idly by."

Yu Song was startled. This wasn't Li Gu exaggerating; it was a genuine local gang rule. He quickly jumped in front of the shopkeeper and said hastily, "Shopkeeper, please tell Iron Hall Master of the Golden Bamboo Gang not to misunderstand me. I wasn't using this place to cheat or swindle anyone; I was just flirting with women—it's nothing, nothing at all!"

The shopkeeper shook his head: "We at Wangjiang Tower do not interfere in matters between cultivators."

Yu Song didn't believe him at all. After explaining a few more times, he slunk out of Wangjiang Tower. Before leaving, he turned back and glared at Li Gu, his displeasure evident even to passersby.

Meng Ting whispered, "That person really looks like Senior Brother Wu Wangshu! Oh dear! I suddenly realized, what if he comes to take revenge on Senior Brother? Oh no, if I ask Senior Brother to help, it will put you in danger."

Li Gu laughed and said, "What kind of future can a man who schemes and plots to harm women have? I'm not afraid of him."

The two were on a date after all, and quickly put this little thing behind them, happily continuing to eat, shop, and enjoy the rare peaceful time after the defeat of the Demonic Sect.

In the evening, the two returned to the yamen and saw Bai Yan leading a large group of people walking into the yamen. It turned out they were from the Flower Valley.

She brought all the livestock back.

Bai Yan had been teaching in the Flower Valley for many years, and in the hearts of her junior brothers and sisters, she was even closer than their master, Hua Qianfang. Naturally, everyone believed what she said. The junior brothers and sisters followed her out of the Flower Valley and went to see the corpse pit. They were all terrified.

Not every disciple in Flower Valley is as resilient as Li Gu and Zhang Yi. Some nearly collapsed after learning the truth. In particular, when they discovered that the old chivalrous robes they were wearing had been taken from the corpses of their senior brothers and sisters, they were on the verge of collapse. They stripped themselves naked in the corpse pit and nearly vomited bile.

Li Gu immediately noticed several junior brothers in the crowd who were shirtless, and a few junior sisters had vomit hanging from their blouses.

Of course, their emotions have now largely calmed down.

Upon seeing Li Gu and Meng Ting, the junior students displayed a variety of expressions.

Suddenly, Fang's voice rang out from the crowd: "Hey! Senior Brother Li, hahaha, you're still alive! I knew you'd be alright."

Fang Wushang burst out of the crowd, grabbed Li Gu's arm, and greeted Meng Ting with a smile: "Hey, Junior Sister, how are you! When Master said you two had run away from the mountain, I really couldn't understand why you did it. I even scolded you, saying that Master had taken us orphans in, and his kindness was as heavy as a mountain. It was really wrong of you to run away from the mountain. It wasn't until Senior Sister came to pick us up from the valley that I found out what was going on. I was so angry! Those bastards from the Demonic Sect, once my swordsmanship is perfected, I'll kill them all."

He spoke so quickly; in just a few words, he had already recounted Li Gu's emotional journey after leaving the valley. He was quite efficient.

Li Gu said, "I'm sorry, Junior Brother Fang. I didn't take you with me when we escaped from Flower Valley because it was too dangerous. I thought you hadn't mastered the cultivation technique yet, and since we wouldn't be in danger anytime soon, I was planning to wait for another opportunity to pick you up."

Fang Wushang chuckled: "I understand! If you tell me, we won't be able to escape. The next day, all the disciples in Flower Valley will know, and we'll all be killed by Hua Qianfang."

Everyone:

'

Everyone was in a bad mood and didn't want to joke around, so they just rolled their eyes at Fang Wushang.

Fang Wushang leaned closer to Li Gu and whispered, "Senior Brother Li, after we leave the valley, will we be working for the imperial court? How did you manage to do that?"

Li Gu: "To be a constable!"

"Ah? Being a constable is great!" Fang Wushang was overjoyed. "Can I be a constable? My [Hidden Flower Sword Technique] is already at a high level. Watch me kill all those criminals."

Everyone rolled their eyes again.

Li Gu didn't know what to say, so he turned to Bai Dan for help: "Senior Sister, what are your plans for arranging the junior brothers and sisters?"

Bai Yan sighed softly, "They are all unfortunate children. Those who can pass the test to enter the mortal world will enter the mortal world, and those who cannot—" As she said this, her eyes were fixed on Fang Wushang: "Those who cannot pass can only be assigned to be watchmen, servants, and other miscellaneous positions."

Fang Wushang was completely oblivious to the meaning behind Bai Dan's words. Instead of feeling ashamed, he was delighted: "Eh? Can I be a night watchman? I love that! I've always thought night watchmen were so cool, banging a gong and shouting, 'Dry weather, be careful with fire!' Hahaha, that's fantastic! Senior Sister, I want to be a night watchman!"

Li Gu and Meng Ting covered their faces at the same time: Fine! Junior Brother Fang, whatever you like is fine.
