Chapter 203 - Robbing the Rich to Help the Poor
The "Guixu" was like a black cruiser, silently crossing the barren sky.
Since leaving that small town that was bullied, the atmosphere on the ship has become more serious, less relaxed than before.
Chu Linyuan still stood quietly at the bow, his black robe fluttering, his eyes like the frozen lake, scanning the desolate land below.
Xie Zhao stopped playing around, occasionally turning the Jinghong Talisman Pen between his fingertips, his brows slightly furrowed, and what was reflected in his peach blossom eyes was no longer the lively light, but the dilapidated villages and pale and skinny mortals scattered on the land below, which were exactly the same as the previous town.
Su Tang's photo stone was still working, but her commentary became much more subdued.
"Family... We passed another village... The well seems dry... There are not many crops in the fields... Did you see that child? He's so thin..."
Tie Niu's huge body leaned against the side of the ship, sighing in a muffled voice, holding the Guixu Dragon Spine Hammer in his arms, as if he had nowhere to vent his anger.
Even Luo Hongyi's beautiful face had less venom and sarcasm, but the poisonous mist wrapped around her fingertips seemed to have become more restless.
They encountered several similar incidents.
Some thugs tried to steal the only edible grass roots that the old man had dug with great effort.
Some bullies forcibly collect "tolls" that do not exist as taxes at all.
Every time, Chu Linyuan didn't need to give orders.
Luo Hongyi's poisonous fog would always strike like a precise whip at the first opportunity.
The iron bull's roar and hammer will make those villains piss and run away.
Xie Zhao would leave some emergency food, clean water, and the most basic medicine for injuries, as well as a clear instruction: "Northwest, Burial God Abyss, Guixu Sect."
Chu Linyuan would leave a cold sword imprint deep in the souls of those villains, like a sword hanging over their heads, making them live in fear and regret for the rest of their lives, and unable to do evil again.
The name "Guixu Sect" began to spread quietly in these desperate lands like a faint spark.
A little bit of hope finally ignited in those numb eyes.
"Brother," Xie Zhao said, his voice heavy as he looked at another village below, which had just been rescued and whose villagers were bowing to the flying boat. "This is just emergency relief, treating the symptoms but not the root cause. These villages are so poor, while those lords entrenched in the towns are probably getting rich as hell."
Chu Linyuan's cold eyes turned to the outline of a city vaguely appearing on the distant horizon.
The city was obviously much more "prosperous" than these villages, and even had simple city walls and patrolling guards.
But that kind of prosperity is tinged with the bloody smell of vanity and exploitation.
"Go and take a look." Chu Linyuan's voice was emotionless.
The "Guixu" lowered its altitude and did not enter the city directly, but flew around the city like a ghost.
Xie Zhao's Jinghong talisman pen sketched in the air, and invisible exploration runes spread out like water waves, sensing the flow of energy and breath in the city.
Su Tang's photo stone and psychic eyes were also working at full capacity, collecting information.
The results are infuriating.
In the center of the city, the most magnificent "City Lord's Mansion" has a very strong fluctuation of spiritual energy, and there is even a low-level spirit gathering array in operation!
From the direction of the treasury, the smell of grain, fodder, gold and silver is almost overflowing!
Outside the city, there are countless skinny and pale people and cracked land!
The guards patrolling the city were all fat and bloated, and they would beat and scold the people begging on the street!
"Damn it!" Xie Zhao couldn't help but curse. "This damn city lord, he's enjoying himself by sucking human blood! When the Immortal Alliance was around, he was a dog, but now that the Immortal Alliance has fallen, he's become a local tyrant!"
Poisonous mist surged violently from Luo Hongyi's fingertips, and a frost covered her beautiful face. "This kind of scum, even if it's refined into a poisonous person, it would be a disgrace to my cauldron!"
Tie Niu was so angry that he was panting heavily, and the Guixu Dragon Spine Hammer was buzzing: "Brother! Let me go and smash that bird palace!"
The aura around Chu Linyuan has dropped to freezing point.
The dark golden dragon pattern on his left cheek lit up slightly, emitting a cold murderous intent.
He didn't even glance at the City Lord's Mansion, his eyes sweeping over the ragged people outside the city.
"Tie Niu, block the four gates. Xie Zhao, break the formation. Luo Hongyi, clear the area."
"Su Tang, record it."
The cold command was concise and cruel.
"Guixu" appeared above the City Lord's Mansion in an instant like a shadow of revenge!
