In that instant, Li Jianshan doubted his own ability to write in classical Chinese.
"Is my brother the brother I understand him to be?" he asked.
Jiang Si found her disciple's exaggerated reaction rather embarrassing and said in a low voice, "The nine sons of the dragon are all different. What's so strange about them looking like this?"
Li Jianshan's eyes widened. Wasn't that strange?
I have to say, you demons really know how to have fun.
The sea god seemed to be used to such reactions. He stepped ashore on the waves and frowned slightly when he saw the wounds on his elder brother: "I wonder what my brother has done."
As she spoke, she gently pried open his mouth and put a pill inside.
Jiang Si's tone was not good: "It's not a big deal, it's just that we almost killed nearly a hundred people." Hallucinogens can make people stupid if they use too much, which is no different from murder.
This statement is practically tantamount to an accusation.
Sure enough, the sea god's expression turned rather unpleasant.
"We will give an explanation." After a long pause, she finally managed to squeeze out a sentence, seemingly not too surprised that her brother had done such a thing.
It's probably the pill that worked; Ugly Fish Head woke up.
Upon seeing the sea god, he instantly flew into a rage: "Why are you here!"
Poseidon's tone was also unpleasant: "Why don't you think about what you've actually done?"
Ugly Fish Head shook his head and looked around. He saw Jiang Si and Li Jianshan on the other side. The two were standing close together and looked over at him.
His gaze was direct and unadorned.
Of course, neither of them actually meant anything by it.
Li Jianshan is quite good-looking; he wouldn't be overshadowed by Jiang Si when standing next to her.
Ugly Fish Head understood perfectly well; he had run into a tough nut to crack and had been sent back. This person even knew his hometown.
It's unclear what he was thinking, but his eyes reddened.
A beautiful woman's furrowed brow evokes pity, while an ugly fish only annoys people.
Li Jianshan frowned slightly.
"I knew you were a bunch of shallow people who judge by appearances!" Ugly Fish Head was so angry that he trembled all over.
Li Jianshan: "Huh??"
The sea god said sternly, "Come back with me."
Ugly Fish Head remained unmoved, his eyes flashing with malice as he looked at his younger brother: "If you still consider him my brother, then leave him here. I want his face."
Li Jianshan: "Huh??"
What's with asking for his face?
"There's no one here. Give me his face, and I promise I won't do anything else."
Ignored, Li Jianshan said, "No, can you please show some respect for me as the person involved? What do you mean by 'have some face'?"
Ugly Fish Head ignored Li Jianshan's question and then pointed at Jiang Si: "Also, keep her as my wife."
The Jiang Si mentioned earlier must have felt some sympathy for this ugly fish head. Appearance is not that important, but that's what it is now.
Jiang Si's temples were bulging with veins, and she said coldly and impatiently, "I think you won't shed a tear until you see the coffin!"
Even Poseidon couldn't take it anymore: "Shut up!"
Li Jianshan couldn't take it anymore: "You dead fish head think you can be my grandmaster? Did you even ask me?"
Poseidon deeply regretted waking up his foolish brother, so he knocked him unconscious again.
"Master Jiang, I am very sorry, it was our fault for not disciplining them properly."
Jiang Si looked up at the Sea God: "I only sent him back because of you, Sea God. If he does it again, I guarantee he'll be turned into fish head soup. I hope you can really discipline him properly."
After all, the sea god governs a region of the ocean; when has anyone ever dared to point fingers and curse at him like this?
At this moment, we can only keep it to ourselves.
He took out a bottle and handed it to Jiang Si, saying, "This is deep-sea essence, which can quickly restore one's vital energy. Consider it our apology."
Having said that, not wanting to embarrass himself any longer, he grabbed his foolish younger brother and disappeared into the sea.
"Let him go like that? That's too easy on him!" Li Jianshan was unwilling to accept it.
Jiang Si looked at the deep-sea essence in her hand. It took more than ten thousand years to form and could quickly restore a person's vital energy, making it an essential item for fighting.
It might not be very precious to the overlord of the deep sea, but it is extremely important to Jiang Si.
"When you're in a situation, you should leave yourself an out. Judging from the way the sea god is acting, he won't let him come up here to embarrass himself again. What he does in the sea is his business."
Li Jianshan didn't believe Jiang Si was being so generous: "Then what exactly is this ugly fish head up to?"
Jiang Si told him to drive back, looking at the bottle in her hand with curiosity, and said without moving her head, "I just want your face, it's that simple, don't you understand?"
"He must have been born ugly, and over time his mentality became twisted, so he wanted to steal a face to use."
Li Jianshan thought about that face for a moment, and thought, "Well, it is indeed easy to have a twisted mind."
"Then who did he arrest?"
"His ideal type should be someone as handsome as his younger brother. The people he captured probably didn't meet his standards in terms of appearance, so he spared their lives. But the essence of people is very nourishing to him. Since his energy manifests outwardly, absorbing too much of it will change his appearance to some extent."
"That's why you didn't think he was that ugly before."
Li Jianshan: "..."
"So, he's after my face, he wants my face?" Li Jianshan felt nauseous. "What will happen to me if he actually succeeds?"
Jiang Si turned to look at him, and remained silent for a long time: "For the sake of the honor and disgrace of our sect, I will probably kick you out."
She's so ugly, it really affects her mood.
Li Jianshan cried out in grief and indignation: "Master, didn't you even think about saving me?!"
Jiang Si remained silent; she hadn't really thought of that. In the end, she could only say dryly, "I did this to test you."
Li Jianshan: "..." My silence was deafening.
The bond between master and disciple is probably gone.
After returning home, Jiang Si went straight to the hospital.
Director Guo wasn't seriously injured, but a few team members were still under observation in the hospital. They were all so weak that it pained him to see them like that.
The young man, who was perfectly healthy, has lost a lot of weight.
Fortunately, they weren't too frightened. Director Guo secretly explained the situation to them, and the matter was sealed as a classified file.
Jiang Si gave Director Guo a bottle of water.
"Give each of them a bite; it'll do them good." A tiny drop of deep-sea essence was added.
It wasn't that Jiang Si was stingy, but rather that going too far was as bad as going too far; after all, a mortal's body was not as good as those of cultivators.
"Of course, let's leave that suspect out of it."
Director Guo treasured it like a precious gem; anything given by Master Jiang must be of high quality.
The young men in the ward frowned as they drank the slightly sweet and slightly fishy liquid.
There was nothing they could do; after all, Director Guo was their boss.
Director Guo asked anxiously, "How is it? Is there any force surging through your body?"
"Director Guo, do you think this is a magic pill?" one of the older ones said.
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a surge of heat rise from his dantian and then spread throughout his limbs and bones, completely dispelling the dull and powerless feeling he had felt before.
The group exchanged bewildered glances, their expressions gradually turning to shock.
Is this really a magic elixir?
Director Guo could tell from their expressions that it worked, and he even saw a hint of smugness in them. "I told you it would work."
