"Hey, have you seen a little girl dressed in white with a red mask on her head?"
The one who spoke was a man, who, despite having a male appearance, spoke in a soft and feminine tone like a woman.
Liao Qifeng's eyes twitched upon hearing this, but before he could reply, the little girl wearing a red mask poked her head out from behind him.
"Young City Lord, you must help my brother and me."
“These people not only robbed my child, but they also engaged in feudal superstitious activities and cheated people out of money.”
"You've just returned from your training trip, so you might not know. These people are clearly not simple; they're skilled at bewitching people."
Bai Ze, standing beside Liao Qifeng, also held onto his clothes tightly, refusing to let go. "Yeah, handsome brother, my sister and I just went in and saw that the people who went in to gamble were like they'd lost their souls. It was terrifying."
As he spoke, a hint of fear appeared on Bai Ze's little face.
The demonic cultivators standing at the door turned ferocious upon hearing what the 'siblings' said.
"Nonsense! This is a legitimate business! Nine out of ten gamblers lose. You're just a kid, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand!"
The yin-yang energy was jumping up and down.
He was still clutching two axes in his hands, his whole body blazing with rage, and the look he gave Sheng Ning and the other man was so intense that he wanted nothing more than to chop them up and feed them to the chickens.
Upon hearing the other party's angry voice, Sheng Ning immediately shrank back behind Liao Qifeng.
"How terrifying, young city lord! When I went in just now, they tricked me into handing over all my money."
“That was money for my younger brother to go to school. How could they bear to lie to me?”
Tiancang also ran out at this moment.
Upon hearing Sheng Ning's words, Tian Cang, who was only knee-high to an average person, jumped three feet high, shouting, "Nonsense! You clearly didn't say that just now!"
"You're clearly...you're clearly a spendthrift!"
Tian Cang's words made Liao Qifeng narrow his eyes.
He looked at the crowd gathered at the entrance of Chang Le Fang and said in a deep voice, "Fighting is prohibited in Youyun City. How dare you, a bunch of grown men, lay a hand on girls and children?"
Tiancang and the others felt like they were vomiting blood.
Tian Cang's face, which resembled a hamster, scrunched up in a frown.
He stepped forward, clasped his hands in a fist and said, “Young City Lord, my Chang Le Fang has been doing business in Youyun City for many years, and we pay taxes every year in accordance with the city’s rules.”
“Now that someone has framed Chang Le Fang, my ward master is furious and thinks that teaching them a lesson will be the end of it. They are just two children, so please be lenient and understanding?”
As he spoke, he pulled out a mustard seed bag containing dozens of high-grade spirit stones.
Liao Qifeng has not returned for many years. Not only have demons appeared in Youyun City, but there has also been a trend of 'bribery'.
Looking down at what was in front of him, Tiancang raised his hands and presented the mustard seed bag to himself.
Without thinking, he simply opened the bag of mustard seeds.
"I heard that Chang Le Fang was a place of burning, killing, looting and plundering. I was planning to inspect the whole city before coming here to take a look, but I never expected to be caught red-handed."
He turned his head to look at Sheng Ning and the other person behind him.
Seeing the latter staring at her expectantly, and when he lowered his head, she even blinked.
Those bright, peach-blossom eyes blinked rapidly, startling him so much that he hastily averted his gaze.
Suppressing the turmoil in his heart, he pressed his fist to his lips and coughed lightly, feigning seriousness, "If I hadn't appeared in time, would you have killed these two children too?"
Cultivators have long lifespans.
Sheng Ning looked very young, and Bai Ze was even younger.
Tian Cang's fawning smile froze. He muttered "How could that be?" but his beady green eyes kept darting around.
Sheng Ning, hiding behind Liao Qifeng, saw this scene and said, "Young City Lord, you must not believe what they say."
"These people are all abnormal!"
After saying that, she told him telepathically, 'These people are all demonic cultivators.'
She sensed something was wrong as soon as those Golden Core demonic cultivators chased after her.
Why did the demonic cultivator, who was still radiating demonic energy inside the gambling den, suddenly become a normal person as soon as he stepped outside?
Presumably, some kind of barrier has been set up at the entrance of Chang Le Fang to block the demonic energy in the area, while also allowing the demonic cultivators who leave the area to return to normal.
Upon hearing the telepathic message, Liao Qifeng's already serious expression instantly turned cold and stern.
Demonic cultivator?
Wasn't the demonic cultivator branch that was originally located in Youyun City destroyed?
Why do demonic cultivators still exist?
His fingers tightened around the sword, his knuckles turning slightly white.
As a righteous cultivator, Liao Qifeng detests evil cultivators, demon cultivators, and devil cultivators the most.
Now, the demonic cultivators dare to act recklessly in Youyun City, which is under my father's control. If we don't take them down, they will surely become a scourge in the future.
The longsword hummed in his hand, sensing its master's rage.
When Tiancang saw this scene, he subconsciously took a step back.
But just as he was backing away, a familiar figure suddenly collapsed at his feet.
Fox Princess never expected those two orbs of spiritual energy to be so troublesome.
She dodged the two small balls around the gambling den. Even when she used her own cultivation to attack them, the balls seemed to have a life of their own and easily evaded her attacks.
After a few back and forth, she was so embarrassed and angry that she almost blew up the entire Chang Le Fang.
In her rage, she was completely unaware that the small red ball had disappeared.
She was bumped hard from behind, and her heel tripped on the threshold, which led to the scene where she fell down in front of Tiancang.
As for the two small balls, they happily returned to their owner's body after seeing him.
This scene not only shocked Fox Fairy, but also surprised Sheng Ning.
"This thing can even have its own consciousness?"
Bai Ze also witnessed that scene. He pondered for a moment with a serious expression, and then explained, "There have been people who could do that before."
Sheng Ning looked down at him. "Who is it?"
Who is it?
A complex expression appeared on Bai Ze's small face.
After a long pause, he spoke in a deliberately profound tone, "Ancient gods...the gods who created this world."
Sheng Ning and the white tiger and giant python in her arms: ......
"Hahaha, an ancient creator goddess? Her? A Foundation Establishment cultivator?" The White Tiger rolled around laughing in Sheng Ning's wide sleeves.
"Although her cultivation has progressed faster, she is wealthier, and she is kinder, she is still some distance from the ancient creator god." The giant python was speechless.
Even Sheng Ning herself nodded, "That's right, that's right. Maybe I just got lucky. Look, I can get a Supreme Treasure without cheating!"
An ancient creator god?
What a joke!
She came here to live a good life, experience the world of cultivation, and incidentally save a few of her senior brothers.
The idea of a creator god is like saying someone has the potential to get into Tsinghua or Peking University when she's only three days old.
Although she did eventually pass the exam.
But that's the creator god! The difference between that and Tsinghua or Peking University is huge!
Moreover, the female protagonist of this world is Shi Yueyao, so what does she, Sheng Ning, have to do with it?
