Only I Have the Law: A Realistic Cultivation Game

Chapter 56 The Dog Demon's Mischief

Upon hearing the word "coward," Zhou Cheng's face instantly turned bright red. He then retorted, "Who's a coward? I was only drunk last night! If it really came down to it, would we be afraid of him?"

"Have you been drinking?"

Tang Qingxi suddenly realized, "So you were drunk and started acting crazy in front of my brother? Then you really can't blame my brother! You guys were just asking for trouble, you deserve to be taught a lesson!"

"you!"

Zhou Cheng was furious.

"What do you mean, 'you'?!"

Tang Qingxi didn't give him a chance to finish speaking, launching into a full-blown attack: "You still have the nerve to talk about 'good intentions'? Who do you think you are?!"

Is Starry Night Guild really that great?

"It's just a makeshift operation your dad put together for you, buying followers, boosting traffic, doing some borderline live streams, and you actually think you're some kind of industry bigwig?"

Zhou Cheng was completely humiliated and shouted angrily, "Tang Qingxi, what do you mean? He hit me! You saw the injury on my hand!"

"That's what you deserve!"

Tang Qingxi retorted without hesitation, "I know Xu Zhiyi's temper best. If you hadn't provoked him first, he would never have laid a hand on me!"

"Okay, okay, okay!"

Zhou Cheng trembled with rage, pointing at Tang Qingxi and saying, "Tang Qingxi, you've got guts! You're blatantly distorting the truth, aren't you? Fine, we'll see!"

With that, he turned to leave.

"stop."

A calm voice rang out.

Zhou Cheng paused, turning back to look at Xu Zhiyi.

Xu Zhiyi looked at him calmly, clutching the magic weapon "Money God" in her hand, and slowly said, "Tell me honestly, who is really distorting the truth?"

"It's...me..."

Driven by an unseen force, Zhou Cheng uncontrollably revealed his true thoughts: "Last night, I saw you were young and wanted to lure you into the guild to exploit your value through a contract... Afterwards, I kept harassing you and even cursed at you..."

The entire lawn fell silent instantly.

Yang Xin, standing to the side, stared wide-eyed, his face filled with disbelief.

Is this still the Zhou Cheng he knows?

He actually admitted his mistake!

Tang Qingxi was also stunned.

What... what's going on here?

Weren't you just making excuses? Why are you suddenly being so honest?

Xu Zhi realized that the desired effect had been achieved and immediately put away the magic weapon.

The "money can buy anything" effect has been disabled.

Cooldown time: 24 hours

[Spiritual Energy Consumption: 100]

Silver consumed: 1 tael

Zhou Cheng suddenly came to his senses, as if he had just realized what he had said. He looked around blankly and helplessly, his face turning pale and then red. Finally, as if he was so ashamed that he ran away without looking back.

"What's wrong with him?"

Tang Qingxi looked at Yang Xin with some puzzlement, "Why does he seem like a completely different person?"

"I don't know."

Yang Xin was also puzzled; Zhou Cheng's behavior was too abnormal.

He scratched his head, looked at Tang Qingxi somewhat awkwardly, then at Xu Zhiyi, and finally sighed, "Well, sorry about earlier... I'll go check on him first, just in case nothing happens."

After saying that, he hurriedly chased after them.

The remaining people looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Alright, that annoying person is gone, let's continue playing!"

Tang Qingxi waved her hand and pulled Xu Zhiyi forward.

Mengmeng and the others exchanged a glance and quickly followed.

Yuantouzhu is a 5A-level scenic spot. Although there are many tourists, the large number of people also brings a lively atmosphere.

A group of young people climbed to the top of Shutian Pavilion and looked down at Taihu Lake and Lihu Lake. Under the clear sky, the lake and sky blended into one. They then took a cruise ship and stood on the deck, looking at the vast blue waves, the distant mountains like dark eyebrows, and the flocks of birds flying and swirling nearby.

At each scenic spot, Tang Qingxi would first take photos with two girls, and then take photos with Xu Zhiyi.

"Smile! Don't act like a boss at such a young age!"

I laughed.

"You call that a laugh? It looks uglier than crying! Try again!"

After snapping dozens of photos, Tang Qingxi flipped through her phone's photo album, pursed her lips, and said, "Fine, so be it if you're expressionless. At least you're handsome, and even an expressionless face looks good on camera."

Xu Zhiyi: "..."

Tang Qingxi loves taking photos.

Take pictures of the scenery and group photos.

The most common thing was selfies.

She especially loves making all sorts of funny faces, such as cross-eyed, sticking out her tongue, and making a crooked face. She has no concern for her image as a beautiful woman at all.

When her own phone ran out of battery, she grabbed Xu Zhiyi's phone to continue taking pictures.

After an afternoon, Xu Zhiyi's photo album had several hundred more photos, almost all of them were Tang Qingxi's various selfies and funny faces, as well as photos of the two of them together.

They played until after 4 p.m. before reluctantly leaving Yuantouzhu.

After agreeing to meet again later, they went home separately.

Xu Zhiyi called a ride-hailing service and returned to the residential area with Tang Qingxi.

Because it was a holiday, there were many cars on the road.

By the time they returned to the entrance of the residential area, it was already 5:30 pm.

"I'm so tired today!"

Tang Qingxi stretched lazily, the hem of her shirt riding up to reveal a glimpse of her slender, fair waist. "I'm going home to take a nice bath!"

Xu Zhiyi glanced at it and said, "Then you go back first, I'll go to the supermarket to buy some things."

"What should I buy?"

"Sister Chen asked me to have dinner tonight, so I'm going to buy some fruit and snacks."

"Then I'll go mooch a meal too!"

"what ever."

Xu Zhiyi was not surprised.

Tang Qingxi and the landlord were already quite familiar with each other.

The two families have been neighbors for decades, living across from each other, and their relationship is much closer than his.

The two entered the supermarket.

Tang Qingxi pushed a shopping cart straight to the snack section, grabbing whatever she saw: potato chips, spicy strips, chocolate, preserved plums, jelly... In no time, the cart was half full.

Xu Zhiyi picked out some apples, bananas, and grapes from the fruit section, and also picked up two cases of pure milk. When paying, she remembered that her landlord liked to drink a couple of glasses with his meals, so she turned back and grabbed two bottles of Huiquan milk.

After paying, Tang Qingxi followed, carrying her two large bags of snacks. "Wait for me! Aren't you going to help me carry one of these bags? They're so heavy!"

"Do you even have hands anymore? Who told you to buy so much!"

"You're strong, right? Help me out!"

"You buy it yourself, carry it yourself."

The two bickered as they walked into the residential area.

"Woof woof woof woof!!!"

Suddenly, a series of urgent barks came from not far ahead.

Xu Zhiyi could faintly hear the terrified cries of children.

At the same time, that familiar translucent blue panel popped up without warning:

[A powerful canine demon has been detected secretly infiltrating a human city, attempting to devour the life essence of young children, resulting in multiple injuries.]

[The current map quest is now available: Drive away the evil dog demon and protect the people.]

[Quest Rewards: 1000 Experience Points, 5 Silver Coins, 1 Random Demon Core]

Dog demon?

Before Xu Zhiyi could think any further, she heard a terrified scream coming from a residential building in the distance.

"Get away, Mom!"

That sound...

Xu Zhiyi's pupils contracted slightly.

Without hesitation, he dropped what he was holding and ran towards the sound, dashing more than twenty meters away in the blink of an eye like an arrow released from a bow!

As he rounded the apartment building, he saw a medium-sized Shiba Inu chasing a little girl.

The little girl had two pigtails and was wearing a pink dress; she was the landlord's granddaughter, Xiaoyuanzi.

She ran and cried, her face filled with terror.

Behind her, the Shiba Inu was very close, its sharp teeth almost touching her calf.

Just at this critical moment, Xu Zhiyi arrived in time.

Without any hesitation.

Without the slightest pause.

He charged forward and kicked out with a single blow.

"Bang!"

A dull thud.

The Shiba Inu flew like a broken soccer ball, flying more than ten meters before crashing heavily into the flowerbed with a piercing howl. Its spine bent at an odd angle, its limbs twitched a few times, and then it lay still.
