"In other words, Liangzhou was once a place where powerful people roamed everywhere. At that time, many powerful righteous cultivators were in Liangzhou," Cao Jia'an said. "They wanted to prevent the demonic cultivators from invading our land of Shenzhou."
"Then why did the demon disappear later?" Zhao Wuliu asked.
"I don't know. Anyway, many things are spread in a very weird way and no one can explain them clearly. After all, these things happened tens of thousands of years ago. Who can know the truth now?" said Cao Jia'an.
Zhao Wuliu was in deep thought, not knowing what he was thinking about.
The things he had heard before were very shocking to him.
As a native of Liangzhou, he had never heard that Liangzhou was so powerful in the past. Once upon a time, Zhao Wuliu felt very humble just because he was from Liangzhou.
Once a few years ago, Zhao Wuliu left Liangzhou and went to the neighboring Youzhou. There, people heard that he was from Liangzhou and laughed at him.
Normally, Zhao Wuliu doesn't want to remember those memories.
Outside, people from Liangzhou are inferior to others in every way.
Now, after hearing Cao Jia'an talk about the history of Liangzhou, Zhao Wuliu suddenly felt relieved. If his ancestors had been glorious in the past, why would they care about their current humble status?
If people do not look down on themselves, the world will be one.
Zhao Wuliu exhaled heavily and said, "Compared to your other story, I am more interested in the glorious history of Liangzhou. I feel better."
"Don't take it all seriously. I've already told you, it happened tens of thousands of years ago. No one can say for sure how much of it is true and how much is false," Cao Jia'an said. "Just treat it as a story. Compared to this, the story of that little girl is more important."
"The little girl is very strong, and she killed Zhao Jiujin and the master." Zhao Wuliu said.
"There's a process. Don't you want to know how Lao Wu and Da Yu died?" Cao Jia'an said.
"You say." Zhao Wuliu said in a low voice.
"That day, the expert was brought to the Fortune Inn by Zhao Jiujin. He didn't take the girl seriously at first, but then she slapped the table and broke it," Cao Jia'an said. "The Eight Immortals table, made of red sandalwood, was shattered with a single slap. Inside was a piece of sawdust the size of a fingernail, which the girl flicked at the expert."
"A piece of sawdust?" Zhao Wuliu raised his eyebrows.
"Do you know how the master responded at that time?" Cao Jia'an said with a smile.
"How did you deal with it?" Zhao Wuliu was also a little curious.
"He didn't take it seriously at first, but when the sawdust got very close, he realized something was wrong and summoned a green light shield. I've seen that shield before, the Green Python Light Shield. It's said to be made from the soul of a green python, a magical treasure." Cao Jia'an sighed and said, "I don't even have that kind of treasure. An expert used it to block a piece of sawdust."
"Blocked?" Zhao Wuliu asked.
"No," Cao Jia'an said, "The Green Python Light Shield was shattered on the spot. If the expert hadn't escaped in time, he would have been the next one to die."
"But he still died," said Zhao Wuliu.
"His death is another matter for the future," Cao Jia'an said. "Actually, if I were an expert that day, I would have just run away. The girl wouldn't have chased me, but an expert didn't run away."
"Then isn't he stupid?" Zhao Wuliu laughed.
Cao Jia'an also smiled and said, "So, a bystander sees more clearly. The master was in the middle of it and was confused. He clearly realized that he and the silver-haired girl were not on the same level at all, but he still didn't run away. Even when the girl shattered his spiritual treasure, the Green Python Light Shield, with a piece of wood chip, he still didn't run away."
"Did he attack the little girl?" Zhao Wuliu asked.
"It was Zhao Jiujin who didn't attack immediately." Cao Jia'an seemed to have thought of something and shook his head again. Then he said, "Although the master understood that he was no match for the girl, Zhao Jiujin didn't understand. He saw the girl shatter the master's Green Python Light Shield with a piece of wood chip, so he thought the master was holding back."
"Your cultivation level is low, and your knowledge is also low." Zhao Wuliu laughed.
"It's not his fault. After all, he's a Qigong cultivator. How could he possibly understand so many things?" Cao Jia'an said. "That day, the master was already thinking of retreating, but out of respect, he didn't leave immediately. Furthermore, the master was very strong, and even the strongest have their limits. He felt that running away without even launching a single move might not be his style."
"So what happened next?" Zhao Wuliu asked with raised eyebrows.
"Later, Zhao Jiujin walked up to the little girl and pointed his finger at her face. Zhao Jiujin said, 'You little brat, do you know who he is?' Zhao Jiujin pointed at the master."
"Then the little girl asked, 'Who is he? Is he your father?'
"Zhao Jiujin said that he is the most powerful master in our Fortune Inn. He can defeat anyone with one move. Previously, a cultivator with fake Dan caused trouble in our Fortune Inn, but he was defeated by the master with one move. No matter how arrogant you are, can you be more powerful than the fake Dan?"
"The little girl laughed and said, 'You think his beating of me is also a trick? Is that what you think?'"
At this point, Cao Jia'an paused, sighed deeply, and continued, "That little girl was clearly a woman, yet she always liked to call herself 'master.' Also, the way she laughed at that time was enough to make the hairs on my back. I'm not lying to you, that little girl's laugh was incredibly eerie."
"You feel it's weird, how can Zhao Jiujin not feel it's weird?" Zhao Wuliu asked with narrowed eyes.
"Zhao Jiujin thought the girl was scared, so she laughed. He thought the girl was trying to please him. Can you believe it?" Cao Jia'an almost couldn't help laughing when he said this.
"Anyway, Zhao Jiujin died in the end, right?" Zhao Wuliu said. "I'm not interested in how Zhao Jiujin died. I just want to know how Lao Wu and Dayu died. Also, did the master make any final moves?"
Cao Jia'an didn't waste any time. After a brief thought, he said, "Let's start from where the master died. The little girl first killed Zhao Jiujin, and then said to the master, 'Just now he said that you can hit anyone with one move. Come, I'm standing here, you come and hit me.'"
"I'll give you one move," the little girl said.
"Are you really giving in?" Zhao Wuliu asked.
"She really gave in. She just stood there without moving and let the expert beat her," said Cao Jia'an.
"Did the master really fight?" Zhao Wuliu asked again.
"Indeed, there was a fight. The master must have used his strongest move that day." Cao Jia'an looked up at the beams of the teahouse from afar, sighed deeply, and said, "The Fortune Inn was destroyed by that master's move. In fact, it wasn't just the Fortune Inn, half of Wild Boar City was affected. More than a dozen rooms behind the Fortune Inn were even collapsed by the earthquake."
"But the little girl is fine?" Zhao Wuliu said with a smile.
"Nothing happened at all. She even protected the male cultivator next to her who was at the second level of Qi training."
