"hehe……"
After Jiang Mu left, Ningguang covered her mouth and smiled softly.
"Lord Ningguang, aren't you afraid..."
Bai Xiao walked over from the side and handed Ning Guang a list of some of the materials needed for the summoning ceremony.
She had been listening to their conversation the whole time, and only after Jiang Mu left did she come out and ask Ningguang her question.
After hesitating for a long time, Bai Xiao finally spoke slowly.
"If you doubt someone, don't use them; if you use someone, don't doubt them."
Upon hearing this, Ningguang simply waved her hand and said calmly.
"This matter is entirely beneficial to me, to the people of Liyue, and even to the entire Liyue region."
"If we can do this well, what does it matter if we lose some money?"
"Lord Ningguang is wise."
After offering a heartfelt compliment, Bai Wen left with his remaining work.
As Ningguang's personal secretaries, the three of them are very busy...
After seeing Baiwen's figure gradually disappear, Ningguang smiled to herself.
"Besides, I don't think this little guy is the type to suffer a loss..."
………………
Jiang Mu floated leisurely in the sky, pondering how he should handle the task Ning Guang had assigned him.
Now that he had taken on this job (even though he was forced to), Jiang Mu had to think carefully about how to do it well.
"Thump!"
Suddenly, Jiang Mu felt that he had just touched something.
As Jiang Mu casually grabbed something, he realized he had been hit by an eagle that was searching for prey in the sky...
The latter, seemingly stunned by Jiang Mu's sudden collision, remained oblivious as Jiang Mu held her in his hand...
Never mind...
Seeing the eagle's dazed look, Jiang Mu couldn't muster any anger. He gently tossed the eagle upwards and released it into the air...
Watching the shadow stagger away, Jiang Mu smiled inwardly.
Alright, let's get back to work!
As he spoke, Jiang Mu flapped his wings and prepared to fly towards Qingce Village.
Suddenly, a chill ran down his spine, and he immediately became alert.
"Enemies?"
The next moment, a cyan figure suddenly appeared behind him, and the next moment, a cyan spear appeared out of thin air in his hand. With a turn of the spear tip, he thrust it towards Jiang Mu!
Holy crap!
This thrust left Jiang Mu no room to maneuver. Startled, Jiang Mu quickly retracted the wings on his back. Without the support of his wings, Jiang Mu's body suddenly plummeted downwards, narrowly avoiding the deadly spear...
After dodging the attack, Jiang Mu spread his wings again to stabilize himself. Looking in the direction from which the attack had just been launched, Jiang Mu was somewhat surprised.
A greenish-blue figure, emanating black energy, stared intently at him through the terrifying Nuo mask, its throat emitting a beast-like roar…
"This is... a Xiao?"
Jiang Mu narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Or rather, it's a demon afflicted by karmic obstacles..."
"Demon...you...kill!!!"
Xiao mumbled incoherently and once again brandished his bird gun... oops, I mean, He Pu Yuan, as he attacked Jiang Mu.
"It seems that this yaksha, burdened by karmic obstacles, is really having a tough time..."
As he spoke, Jiang Mu clenched his fist.
As everyone knows, there is only one way to free this Yaksha from the afflictions of karma, besides finding a way to eliminate those karmas themselves...
That is...
Beat him until he comes to his senses!
At this moment, Jiang Mu didn't take out any weapons. He just wanted to see if his fists could subdue this Three-Eyed Five Manifestations Immortal, Demon-Subduing Great Sage, Dharma-Guarding Yaksha, Short True Lord, Xiao...
………………
The battle was extremely fierce. Although Xiao, corrupted by karma, was exceptionally brave, he couldn't withstand it. Jiang Mu had some kind of cheat code...
Then, Jiang Mu carried the unconscious Xiao back to Wangshu Inn.
"Boss, your goods have been delivered."
After teleporting to Wangshu Inn, Jiang Mu went straight to Phil Godette, who was busy at the counter, and placed Xiao in front of her.
"Sir, you're joking. We didn't... Oh dear!"
Phil Gaudette looked at Jiang Mu, about to speak, but when she saw the Xiao in Jiang Mu's hand, her expression changed, and her face immediately turned cold. She looked at Jiang Mu and said unkindly.
"Sir, I think you'd better give us a proper explanation..."
"What explanation?"
Jiang Mu feigned anger.
"I was flying peacefully in the sky when this guy suddenly appeared, covered in black mist, carrying a green gun, and came up to attack me!"
"If I didn't know some kung fu, he would have stabbed me to death with one shot long ago!"
"You call that knowing a little kung fu!"
Philgoldette almost shouted it out... Others might not know, but didn't she know that this Demon-Slaying Great Sage's combat power, while not top-tier among all the Three-Eyed Five Manifestations Immortals, was still among the top three...
Now, this kid, who appeared out of nowhere, has taken care of them... and it seems like he didn't even have to put in much effort...
"Then why did you bring him here?"
Phil Gaudette said with a forced smile.
"Uh, it seems like your inn is the only one around here..."
Jiang Mu shrugged and said helplessly.
"If we don't come to you, who else can we come to?"
