“Yun Cang of the Gongsun family requests an audience with the governor of the Demon Subduing Division,” A voice full of vigor suddenly sounded.
The Gongsun family?
In the main hall, Lin Wudao raised a brow as he turned to look at Zhao Mang.
“Governor, the Gongsun family is one of the most powerful forces in the City of Sin. It’s said that they have been around for more than a thousand years and have a strong foundation. Rumor has it that they have an Origin Return realm powerhouse in the family,” Zhao Mang explained.
Hearing this, Lin Wudao nodded thoughtfully.
Immediately, he asked someone to invite Yun Cang, who was outside, in.
“Greetings, Governor Lin.”
When he arrived at the main hall, Yun Cang sized up Lin Wudao secretly and greeted him with a smile.
Then, He presented a gold-stamped invitation with both hands.
“Governor Lin, the Gongsun family has heard that you are a rare pillar of the Li dynasty. You have killed several demons and gained a great reputation since your raise. You are truly a first-class hero in the world.”
“In three days, it will be the wedding of our young master, Gongsun Mang. Governor Lin, please attend. In addition, the family head also heard about the tragic experience of the governor’s subordinates and specially ordered me to send some good healing items as a token of his sincerity,” He said.
With a wave of Yun Cang’s hand, several people immediately came to the hall.
Each of them held a box in their hands, which contained various healing items and some spiritual medicine.
Seeing this, Lin Wudao’s indifferent eyes glanced at Yun Cang, still expressionless.
“Thank you for your good intentions. I’ll be there for the wedding ceremony three days later if I have time,” Lin Wudao’s calm voice slowly sounded.
Hearing this reply, Yun Cang heaved a sigh of relief.
As long as Lin Wudao was willing to come, the plan had succeeded by half.
“If that’s the case, then the Gongsun family will quietly wait for the governor’s arrival,” Yun Cang cupped his fists and smiled.
After saying this, he turned around and was about to leave.
However, just as he was about to take a step forward, he seemed to have suddenly recalled something as he turned around and looked at Lin Wudao with a hesitant expression.
“Governor Lin, I’ve just heard some news related to the Demon Subduing Division. I wonder if I should…”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtYun Cang pretended to be in a difficult position.
Upon seeing this, Lin Wudao’s expression remained calm.
“Just say it.”
“Oh, when I passed by the Heavenly Fragrance Brothel just now, I heard that the Deputy Lord of the Demon Subduing Division, Chen Chunqiu, seems to have been detained. The reason seems to be that he didn’t pay for playing with the women there…”
What? Chen Chunqiu played with women and refused to pay? And now he’s been detained?
Zhao Mang and Han Qingshan’s eyes widened in disbelief when they heard the news.
This news was too explosive.
Chen Chunqiu was the Deputy Lord of the demon Hunter Hall. How could he not pay?
“I’m afraid you’re mistaken, right? Chen Chunqiu is the Deputy Lord of the Demon Subduing Division. Why would he lack money? Even if he really did sleep with the women of Heavenly Fragrance Brothel, it’s impossible for him not to pay. This matter is simply the biggest joke in the world,” Zhao Mang snorted.
Although he didn’t like Chen Chunqiu, he didn’t believe that the other party could do such a thing.
If it was true, then the face of the Demon Subduing Division would be completely lost.
“Hehe, I only heard about it when I was passing by. As for the truth of the matter, I’m afraid that only Deputy Lord Chen himself knows. It’s just that news has already spread throughout the City of Sin. Everyone is waiting to see the Demon Subduing Division make a fool of itself,” Yun Cang shook his head and sighed.
He resisted the urge to laugh and immediately turned to leave the Demon Subduing Division.
…
“Governor, Chen Chunqiu would never do such a thing. This is definitely a trap set up by someone. It’s most likely to humiliate you. After all, this happened right after you arrived in the City of Sin. Isn’t it too much of a coincidence?” Zhao Mang clenched his fist and growled.
At this moment, he thought of his and Han Qingshan’s tragic experience of being hung on the city tower, and now Chen Chunqiu’s matters of refusing to pay after toying with women. All of this was directed at Lin Wudao.
It was all to embarrass him. It was obvious that this was all premeditated.
The more they thought about it, the more Zhao Mang and Han Qingshan were spiteful.
“Young master, Chen Chunqiu’s matter involves the honor of the Demon Subduing Division. It’s obvious that someone is deliberately targeting you. How should we deal with this? Why don’t we just expel Chen Chunqiu from the Demon Subduing Division?” Han Qingshan said carefully.
Hearing this, Lin Wudao’s expression was still indifferent.
“You all can leave first, I have plans for this matter.”
“Yes!”
Although they were curious, Zhao Mang and Han Qingshan didn’t dare to ask any more questions. They immediately left.
After the two left, Lin Wudao pondered for a moment before he took out a piece of God-summoning Paper.
Whoosh!
He used his spiritual energy as a pen and began to write on the God-summoning Paper.
He had just arrived in the City of Sin and a series of strange things had happened. Even a fool would know that someone had deliberately set this up.
Therefore, he had to find the mastermind.
He couldn’t do so if he relied on others. This matter could only be done by the owner of the Human World Tower, Jun Qianmo.
[I want to know who hung Zhao Mang and Han Qingshan above the City of Sin. And who is the one who used Chen Chunqiu to plot against me?]
Whoosh!
When the last stroke was completed, the God-summoning Paper suddenly emitted a mysterious green light. The words that Lin Wudao had just written disappeared in an instant.
A moment later, new words appeared on the God-summoning Paper.
...
[Fan Wujiu, the eldest young master of the Netherworld Devil Sect.]
[Gongsun Mao of the Gongsun family.]
[The Gongsun family is hiding a level 10 demon.]
…
Three messages appeared on the God-summoning Paper.
Chi!
The words lasted for about ten breaths of time before completely disappearing. At the same time, the God-summoning Paper went up in flames. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a wisp of green smoke and disappeared from the world.
At the sight of this, Lin Wudao was greatly surprised.
“This God-summoning Paper is indeed useful,” He praised.
Immediately after, his face turned cold.
“Ha, to think they’re playing the game of a thief crying thief with me? Since you guys want to play, then I’ll accompany you to the end. I just hope that you can afford to pull such tricks…”
...
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAn ice-cold, murderous glint bloomed from the bottom of his eyes.
Then, Lin Wudao pondered for a moment before placing all the corpses he had obtained in the Dayan ancestral land into the heaven burial bronze coffin.
He had forgotten about them before and didn’t have time to do so.
Qiao Yinyang and the others were elites in the Myth realm. He wondered what he would get from collecting their corpses.
In this regard, Lin Wudao was filled with anticipation.
[Ding~]
[You have collected Qiao Yinyang’s corpse and obtained a Myth-realm dharma technique: Mind Control Technique. After the system’s tenfold enhancement, you have obtained the dharma technique: The Spirit-capturing Technique, able to control the mind of living beings.]
[You have collected Li Fentian’s corpse and obtained 3000 Fate Energy value. After the system’s tenfold enhancement, you’ve obtained 30000 Fate Energy value.]
[You have collected the corpse of the ancient mutant three-headed demonic flood dragon and gained 800 years of lifespan. After the system’s tenfold enhancement, you’ve gained 8000 years of lifespan. ]
[You have collected Fu Tianque’s corpse and obtained a Mystic Origin Fortune Pill. After the system’s tenfold enhancement, you’ve obtained a Deva Fortune Pill. Upon consumption, the user will temporarily have cultivation at the perfection of the Deva realm.]
[Sorry, but you didn’t get anything.]
…
A series of cold notifications sounded in his mind.
Among the corpses of six Myth-realm powerhouses and an ancient mutated three-headed demonic flood dragon, half of them provided nothing.
In the end, Lin Wudao only received one Deva Fortune Pill, 30000 Fate Energy value, the Spirit-capturing Technique, and 8000 years of lifespan. He was quite satisfied with this result.
In particular, the Spirit-capturing Technique was extremely mysterious.
After using it, one could control the mind of others for a short time and make them do things according to one’s will without anyone knowing. It was simply killing people without anyone noticing.
However, although the Spirit-capturing Technique was miraculous, it had a fatal flaw.
That was, it could only control living beings with lower cultivation than the user, and it could only last for ten breaths at most.
That being said, even though the restrictions were huge, the effect was heaven-defying.
“If there’s a chance, I have to give it a try…”
After Lin Wudao had familiarized himself with the Spirit-capturing Technique, he went looking for Wei Chengqian.
“Greetings, Governor.”
“Hmm. Take me to the Heavenly Fragrance Brothel. I heard that our Deputy Lord Chen Chunqiu has been playing with women without paying. This matter concerns the dignity and face of our Demon Subduing Division. I must go and take a look.”
“Yes,” Wei Chengqian bowed and acknowledged.
Then, he led Lin Wudao, Li Zangtian, and the others toward the Heavenly Fragrance Brothel.
