Lin Weiming was instantly furious.
Hearing Zhang Xiangyang's words, he jumped up in anger, pointed at Zhang Xiangyang's nose and cursed, "You shameless thing, if you dare to talk nonsense about my daughter again, don't blame me for hitting you! Last time, you were the ones who wanted to rob us. You officials and clerks are like wolves and tigers, only coming to rob us ordinary people of our money."
Lin Weiming noticed that the crowd who came to watch the commotion all had expressions of approval on their faces. Most of them were business owners on this street, and who hadn't been bullied by Zhang Xiangyang and his gang of scoundrels?
Now, when Lin Weiming talks about it, they all feel the same way.
Lin Weiming continued loudly, "We have so many children to raise, and we've used up all our savings to open this small shop. We work hard to earn some money just to support our family."
"But what about you? You were so unreasonable and domineering. You tried to take our things, and when I refused, you smashed our house to pieces. What good would it do if I hit you? And now you dare to slander my daughter. I think you're asking for a beating."
Lin Weiming brandished his bulging, veiny fist, and Zhang Xiangyang shrank back in fright.
Liang Xin: "..."
I'm so disappointed in you!
If even a yamen runner like Zhang Xiangyang can't step up and handle things, then his men are even more useless—a bunch of good-for-nothings!
“There’s nothing to say about these things.” Liang Xin lightly brushed aside what Zhang Xiangyang and his group had done, saying only, “No matter what, your family shouldn’t have raised such a monster. You can’t let your selfishness lead you to want to bring down the entire county.”
“This Master Li is someone I had great difficulty inviting down from the mountain. If you have any sense, you should step aside and let the master subdue this demon so that our county can have peace again.”
"Pah!" Lin Weiming spat on Liang Xin's face.
He has now realized that Liang Xin is targeting their family. No matter what he says, it's useless. Liang Xin will still protect Zhang Xiangyang and his gang of scoundrels.
Since that was the case, Lin Weiming no longer held back and became less polite to Liang Xin, a county magistrate.
"You, you, you...you troublemaker!" This time, it was Liang Xin who was jumping up and down in anger.
He frantically pulled out a handkerchief and wiped the drool off his face, trembling with anger.
However, the Taoist priest Li keenly noticed that even though he and Lord Liang had made it clear that the little girl was a demon and not a good person, the onlookers still showed no fear of Lin Wanyue...
After thinking it over in his mind, Li Daoshi concluded that it must be the little girl's adorable appearance that was so deceptive that she had fooled all the common people.
In order to save the person, Li Daoshi disregarded Lin Weiming and Liu Junlan's people who were blocking her way and directly took out a magic weapon.
This magical artifact is even more powerful than the peach wood sword. At least, neither Hu Jiuyuan nor Xiao Fendie, who were rushing over, dared to approach easily.
They could only anxiously wait outside, their hearts burning with worry.
Hu Jiuyuan said, "Could it be that Laifu has run away? Why go and call that Cui guy now? He's a useless scholar, even if you call him over, it won't do any good."
"Actually..." Little Pink Butterfly was also very worried at this moment, and said perfunctorily, "At least when there are more ghosts fighting in a group, there is some advantage to ganging up on each other."
She also knew that among the ghosts, only Lai Fu, this plague god, was probably able to resist such a legitimate magical artifact.
When Liang Xin and Zhang Xiangyang saw that Li Daoshi had taken out an even more powerful magic weapon, they also showed smug smiles and looked at Lin Weiming with a rather provocative expression.
Once Taoist Li has dealt with this little demon, dealing with Lin Weiming will be a piece of cake.
The saying "a county magistrate who ruins a family and a prefect who exterminates an entire clan" is not just a joke.
As Li Daoshi took out her magic weapon, she could more clearly sense the yin wind blowing around her and a powerful yin energy swirling around her.
Looking at the little girl in front of him, Li Daoshi was cautious. This little girl was indeed extraordinary!
Ordinary people absolutely cannot withstand such powerful yin energy!
He wasn't mistaken; there was definitely, absolutely, and undeniably something wrong with this little girl.
"Hey!" Li Daoshi became even more convinced of his opinion. He bit his fingertip, put his two fingers together to form a sword, and pointed it at Lin Wanyue, saying, "Evil spirit, why don't you show yourself quickly? If you leave now, I will not pursue your previous actions. But if you dare to continue to act recklessly and harm the world, don't blame me for making your soul disappear!"
Lin Wanyue scratched her cheek with her little finger, speechless.
She felt that the Taoist priest Li was like a shaman, jumping around and saying strange things.
Do you want to make her soul disappear?
What are you thinking about!
"I'm advising you now only out of pity for your difficult cultivation journey. Make a decision quickly! If you continue to court death, then I will only grant your wish," Li the Taoist said coldly.
"Hey, grandpa." Lin Wanyue's voice rang out lazily, bluntly exposing him: "Is your cultivation not enough? If it's not enough, you should go back to the mountain to play. Don't keep coming down the mountain, it's not safe in the city."
"You, you, you..."
Lin Wanyue's words were clearly disrespectful, which infuriated Li Daoshi.
Of course, more importantly, lies don't hurt people; it's the truth that cuts to the heart!
In fact, in the eyes of Lin Wanyue and the other onlookers, Li Daoshi's inexplicable jumping around was actually the Eight Steps of Daoist Magic, a kind of Daoist method to subdue evil spirits.
But who knew it would have no effect on Lin Wanyue?
Even the surrounding yin energy cannot be driven away!
Li Daoshi gritted his teeth, realizing he had to resort to drastic measures. This demon was not easily intimidated; on the contrary, it was a formidable entity.
Just as Li Daoshi reached into his robes, preparing to pull out the treasure his master had left him, a sharp howl rang out from the side.
"Grandma, are you alright?"
As soon as Jiang Yongqiang arrived, he saw the chaos in front of the Lin family's shop. He also saw an old Taoist priest standing in front of Lin Wanyue, looking fierce and protective of his mother. The priest made a sharp, explosive sound.
"?" Li Daoshi also paused subconsciously and looked in that direction.
Then a young man dressed in a brightly colored brocade robe rushed over with a group of thugs. He waved his hand and said, "Get this old charlatan out of here! How dare he bully my grandma! He doesn't respect me, Jiang!"
“Since you have the guts to come to the county town, you should have the guts to ask around. No matter which old charlatan you came from, if you don’t come to our Jiang family to pay your respects, you’re just asking for death!”
Jiang Yongqiang fiercely stood in front of Lin Wanyue.
