Film & TV: Public Enemy of Justice

After speaking, Biyao concentrated her energy and raised the Yan Cliff Grass into the air. The Heartbreak Words on her right hand rang melodiously as she shook them. As the Yan Cliff Grass rose higher and higher, dark clouds suddenly filled the sky, accompanied by lightning and thunder.

"The flower that wounded me turned to dust in an instant."

Biyao was enveloped in a blue light. A sudden gust of wind rose around her, and tiny raindrops fell on the river. In an instant, it turned into a timely and welcome rain. The surface of the Qiling River emitted a dark purple halo under the influence of the rain. As the rain increased, the halo gradually dimmed and finally disappeared completely.

Lin Yaoxie mobilized more than 100 guards from Yudu City to build a river embankment along the moat to reduce the flooding disaster of the Qiling River, and planted vegetation on both sides of the river to prevent sand and stabilize the forest.

After some time, the Qiling River returned to its pure and clear state, and the lives of the villagers in Peach Blossom Village returned to their former stability. Lin Yaoxie stood at the village entrance and waved goodbye to the villagers. All the villagers came to see him off, following him all the way to the village entrance, and kowtowed to express their gratitude for the great kindness of Lin Yaoxie and his two companions.

"No need to see me off, go back now."

Lin Yaoxie waved his hand and disappeared at the entrance of Peach Blossom Village.

Upon returning to Yudu City, Lin Yaoxie and his two companions immediately met with Zeng Ji, the city lord of Yudu City.

Hahaha, not bad, you guys really didn't disappoint me, especially you, Lin Yaoxie.

Upon hearing the good news that the river had been cleaned up, Zeng Ji was in high spirits and spoke more kindly.

"You have saved the people of Yudu City; you are the benefactors of Yudu City. Tonight, I will host a banquet to properly entertain you. Name any rewards you may have, and I will fulfill them all."

.

"My lord, the work of managing the river was done voluntarily and is my duty. I do not ask for any reward."

Lin Yaoxie replied.

Zeng Ji was not in a hurry after listening, and patiently said, "You don't need to answer me in a hurry. Come and tell me when you have thought it through. You have all worked hard these past few days. Go and get some rest first."

Guided by a maid, Lin Yaoxie and his two companions left the main hall and headed towards the backyard.

Late at night, Lin Yaoxie sneaked into Biyao's residence, where Biyao, unaware of his presence, was taking a bath. The flickering candlelight, bathed her fair skin in a warm, yellowish light, adding a touch of allure. A delicate fragrance wafted through the air as her jade-like fingers traced a clear pool, releasing a subtle aroma. Lin Yaoxie, searching for Biyao, inadvertently stepped into a fragrant bath.

Chapter Forty: The Position of City Lord

Amidst the fragrant flowers and swirling smoke of a bath, Lin Yaoxie stared blankly at a scene of beautiful women bathing.

"who."

Upon realizing someone was inside, Biyao exclaimed in surprise, but dared not be careless and turned around to check who it was.

Lin Yaoxie stepped forward and ran his hand across Biyao's smooth back, exclaiming in surprise, "It's me, Brother Lin."

Upon learning that the person behind her was Lin Yaoxie, Biyao's nervousness turned into shyness.

"Brother Lin, is there something important that you've come over so late at night?"

"I did come here for a big event, but there is an even bigger thing for me to do right now."

Lin Yaoxie reached into the water and used his index finger to slide down from Biyao's neck. The tingling sensation made Biyao's whole body tremble and she froze. When his finger slid to her waist, Biyao felt a mixture of fear and anticipation. His index finger lingered on Biyao's waist for a few moments before leaving.

Lin Yaoxie scooped Biyao up from the water and glanced at her.

"Now you belong to me completely."

Biyao nestled in Lin Yaoxie's arms, her face flushed, not daring to lift her head.

Lin Yaoxie gently placed Biyao on the soft bed and personally wiped away the water droplets from her body. Lin Yaoxie wiped her very carefully, keeping his eyes fixed on Biyao's body the whole time, not missing a single corner. Under Lin Yaoxie's burning gaze, Biyao turned over and got into the quilt.

"No need to wipe anymore, you're all dry now."

Lin Yaoxie pressed down on Biyao through the blanket, "Now we need to get down to business."

"Biyao, I love you so much, I really love you so much."

Biyao got up and glanced at Lin Yaoxie beside her, only to find that he was talking in his sleep. Biyao gently tucked the blankets around him, stroked Lin Yaoxie's sleeping face, and a happy smile bloomed on her lips.

I love you too."

…wide.

Chapter Forty: The Clash Between Good and Demon

As dawn broke, Lin Yaoxie woke up from his dream. The first thing he saw was Biyao sleeping peacefully beside him. Something seemed to fill a certain part of his heart, and he felt very content.

Biyao gently opened her eyes, and Lin Yaoxie immediately placed a kiss on her forehead.

Good morning, my wife.

"Good morning!"

After the two got up and washed up, Lin Yaoxie remembered the purpose of his visit to Biyao last night.

"My lady, is there any news from the Ghost King Sect?"

Biyao, who was drawing her eyebrows, looked up at the sound and stared at Lin Yaoxie in confusion, still lost in thought about Lin Yaoxie's question.

Lin Yaoxie chuckled softly, walked over to Biyao, took the eyebrow pencil from her hand, and personally drew her eyebrows.

"Could it be that my husband was too vigorous last night, and my wife hasn't recovered yet?"

Biyao gave Lin Yaoxie a coquettish look, then lowered her head shyly.

"Don't move, don't move, your eyebrows are drawn crooked."

Lin Yaoxie smiled with satisfaction at Biyao's reaction, his gaze remaining fixed on Huamei's hands.

"Yes, that's right, my wife is beautiful."

Biyao looked around in front of the dressing mirror, smiling as she leaned against Ruhua.

"My lady, I don't think the Ghost King is someone who can be easily reasoned with. Do you know what he did after learning about the poisonous flower incident?"

“I’m not quite sure either. He was very angry at the time and forbade me from associating with the disciples of Qingyun Sect, but I don’t know what he was going to do.”

If you can't figure it out, don't think about it anymore. Let's go fill our stomachs first.

Night fell quickly, and preparations for the banquet were in full swing inside and outside the City Lord's Mansion. Tonight, the mansion was packed with guests, most of the prominent figures in Yudu City were in attendance. Zeng Ji greeted the guests at the entrance, and the distinguished guests brought generous gifts. In no time, the City Lord's Mansion was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, and was bustling with activity.

At the banquet, the only thing that interested Lin Yaoxie was Xiao Huan. Xiao Huan and her father entered the banquet hall accompanied by the city lord, who then seated them next to him. Judging from the city lord's friendly attitude towards Xiao Huan and her father, Lin Yaoxie was quite certain that the city lord had known Xiao Huan and her father for more than ten years and that he valued Xiao Huan highly.

"Today, the predicament of Yudu City has been resolved, all thanks to the help of the three heroes. Today, I, Zeng, have specially prepared a banquet to entertain the three of you and to thank you for your help. I, Wang, would like to offer you a toast."

Zeng Ji downed a glass of wine in one go, and Lin Yaoxie responded by drinking one as well. As he put down his glass, Lin Yaoxie noticed Xiao Huan watching him from across the table. He nodded slightly to her, and Xiao Huan smiled happily in response.

"Besides expressing my gratitude to the three of you today, I, Wang, have another announcement to make."

"Let me introduce someone to you first."

Zeng Ji beckoned to Xiao Huan, beckoning her over. Xiao Huan glanced at the old man, then slowly got up and walked toward the city lord.

"This is the only daughter of my old friend, named Xiao Huan. She is of pure character and a rare woman. However, I have no sons and cannot bring her into my home. I am old and ill, so I wish to select an outstanding successor from among the people. The winner, I will personally bestow Xiao Huan upon her and make her the next city lord."

The VIPs sat down and whispered among themselves, while Lin Yaoxie stared blankly at Xiao Huan next to the city lord.

"Do you know her?" Biyao asked doubtfully from beside her.

"We met once before, and I saved her back then."

Biyao remained silent, picked up the hot tea on the table, and drank it alone.

"Grandpa wants you to marry that Xiao Huan! Everyone can see that Grandpa values ​​you highly; the position of city lord is definitely yours," Zeng Shushu reminded him.

“You are his own grandson, so you should be the one to marry him.”

"Come on! I know my grandfather well. He only passes on his skills to his relatives, not his children. In his eyes, I've never been the kind of person who can take on important responsibilities."

At this moment, Lin Yaoxie was confused. He began to believe Zeng Shushu's words. Xiao Huan had returned to her seat and was staring intently at Lin Yaoxie.

"After careful consideration, Mr. Wang has decided that candidates will be selected from all promising young men in Yudu City, and two more will be added: my grandson Zeng Shushu and the great hero Lin Yaoxie. The competition will be diverse, and those who are interested in competing are encouraged to prepare accordingly."

During the subsequent banquet, Lin Yaoxie remained silent. He had no interest in the position of city lord, much less in running for it. Although the young woman named Xiao Huan was quite pretty and secretly harbored feelings for him, she couldn't compare to Bi Yao, whom he longed for. He needed to think of a way to win her over. Early the next morning, Lin Yaoxie went to see the city lord. Zeng Ji assumed he had come to thank him for what happened the previous night, but Lin Yaoxie said as soon as he entered, "City Lord, I already decided what reward I wanted last night."

"Oh? Tell me about it. If it's within my power, I will grant your request."

"This matter is a piece of cake for the city lord, but it is a real problem for me. I implore the city lord to disqualify me from the demon competition."

Zeng Ji stared blankly at Lin Yaoxie: "Say it again."

"I have my reasons for managing the river, which have nothing to do with Yudu City. The city lord need not be too grateful. Besides, I am currently the acting head of the Qingyun Sect and do not have the extra energy to inherit the position of city lord of Yudu City. The city lord should seek another capable person!"

After Lin Yaoxie finished speaking, he left without waiting for Zeng Ji's response, and suddenly discovered Xiao Huan, who was eavesdropping outside the door.

Is it because of Xiao Huan that Young Master Lin refused to run for the position of city lord?

Xiao Huan looked at Lin Yaoxie cautiously, with a submissive and resigned expression.

"It has nothing to do with you. It's just that I have my own responsibilities to the Qingyun Sect, and I really don't have any spare energy."

"Then I'll go and beg Uncle Zeng to cancel the promise of the arranged marriage. That way, whoever becomes the city lord in the future will have nothing to do with me."

Xiao Huan smiled broadly, turned around and walked into the main hall. Not long after, the maids at the door respectfully invited Lin Yaoxie into the hall.

Zeng Ji asked Lin Yaoxie again, "Do you really not want to be the city lord?"

"Yes."

Zeng Ji already knew Lin Yaoxie's answer in his heart, and couldn't help but sigh.

"Alright, alright, I won't make things difficult for you. But Xiao Huan has fallen for you, so you can't refuse her feelings."

Xiao Huan stood shyly to the side, her head bowed, looking like a delicate and pitiful young lady. Seeing that the city lord was so insistent, Lin Yaoxie couldn't refuse twice in a row, so he acquiesced.

Suddenly, Lin Yaoxie realized that he hadn't seen Ling'er for several days and wondered how she was doing.

Lin Yaoxie was heading towards Biyao's residence when Zeng Shushu stopped him halfway, saying anxiously, "Something's happened! Biyao has been captured by the Ghost King. Now, the Ghost King Sect, the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect, and the Hehuan Sect have all gathered in Yudu City. The Qingyun Sect, Tianyin Temple, and Fanxiang Valley are also present. The two sides are already at loggerheads, and a major battle is imminent."

Lin Yaoxie hurried to the battlefield. Tian Buyi was overjoyed to see Lin Yaoxie, whom he hadn't seen for a long time: "Yaoxie, where have you been these past few days? What happened?"

“Master, I’m fine. I’ve just been dealing with the pollution incident in the Qiling River recently.”

"Qiling River?" Tian Buyi wondered, wondering if it was related to the poisonous flowers of Kongsang Mountain.

Lin Yaoxie couldn't help but secretly mock Tian Buyi. Tian Buyi originally intended to use the poisonous flowers of Kongsang Mountain to poison the members of the Demonic Sect, but unexpectedly, they became the source of pollution for the Qiling River in Yudu City. The moral banner that Qingyun Sect had upheld for a century was almost destroyed because of the poisonous flower incident. Tian Buyi was secretly shocked and asked, "Then the pollution of the Qiling River has been resolved?"

Solved.

Tian Buyi breathed a sigh of relief and patted Lin Yaoxie's shoulder hard.

"Hmm, well done. You are worthy of being the acting leader of Qingyun Sect."

Tian Ling'er ran up at this moment, her smile as bright as a flower.

"Senior Brother Lin, you're finally back! Ling'er missed you so much!"

Lin Yaoxie bent his hand and affectionately hooked Tian Ling'er's nose...
