The Immortal Way is Fierce

Chapter 22 My son has just grown up

Although Hu Guangfu did not directly testify against An Qingxian, even the lord of Yanyang City was not involved. The person who told them to deduct the monks' spiritual stone pills was just a yamen chief.

But unfortunately, Zhang Jingyuan happened to know this person in charge, and they even formed a team together for a while in the Canglang Demon Mountain in their previous life.

During that time, Zhang Jingyuan often heard the chief boasting that he was a close confidant of Mr. An Qing, and that the city lord's word for matters concerning Yanyang City did not count, but what he said counted.

Of course, Zhang Jingyuan would not believe this kind of bragging and self-advocacy. If he was really An Qing's confidant, how could he run to Canglang Demon Mountain on his own? How could he not even have the cultivation level to build a foundation?
Based on his understanding of An Qingxian, if he didn't have foundation-building skills, An Qingxian wouldn't even be interested in being a dog.

But what is certain is that this chief executive is indeed on the same line as Mr. An Qing. It is just that there are many layers between him and Mr. An Qing, so I don’t know.

Because Zhang Jingyuan had seen with his own eyes how arrogant and domineering he was in front of Yanyang City Lord.

A monk at the eighth level of Qi Refining dared to do this in front of a foundation-building monk and the Lord of a city, and the Lord of Yanyang City tolerated it. If there was no background behind it, no one would believe it.

As for saying that it was the boss who made his own decisions and enriched his own pockets, he probably wouldn't. Based on Zhang Jingyuan's understanding of him, he didn't have the guts.

After all, taking someone's money is like killing one's parents. He, a qi-refining monk, was so full that he was going to deprive other monks of their spiritual stone pills?

It’s not like he’s looking for death.

Although the order of the world of cultivation is much better now than in the previous era, what are monks? What they want is a long-term vision and clear thoughts.

You prevent me from immortality and make me unhappy. Naturally, I will not allow you to live forever and make you happy.

"Everything I said is true, Fellow Daoist Zhang, just let me go. I promise that what happened today will not be revealed. And I still have 20,000 spirit coins, which I can give you as compensation."

Seeing that Zhang Jingyuan remained silent for a long time, Hu Guangfu thought that Zhang Jingyuan did not believe what he said. He was so frightened that he almost wet his pants.

After all, as long as Zhang Jingyuan has a thought, the tip of the sword exuding a biting chill in front of his throat can kill him in an instant.

"I didn't intend to kill you."

Hearing this, Zhang Jingyuan came back to his senses and said calmly.

"Thank you then, I promise I..."

Hu Guangfu was immediately overjoyed and hurriedly touched the spiritual coins in his arms.

However, even though he escaped this disaster, Hu Guangfu was already furious in his heart. He must make Zhang Jingyuan look good tomorrow. Isn't Zhang Jingyuan good at fighting and dexterous and sharp in wielding a sword?

He wanted to see how many monks Zhang Jingyuan could defeat on the first level of Qi Refining, and whether he could defeat all the monks in the Yamen.

He had been in the yamen for so many years, when had he ever suffered such a big loss?

If he met those wandering casual cultivators or ruthless demons, he would just forget about it and would only suffer the loss of being dumb.

But Zhang Jingyuan, a person who he had personally inspected on the jade slips, dared to play this trick with him. He really didn't know how high the sky was.

See how he deals with Zhang Jingyuan and how many spiritual stones he took from him today. Tomorrow he will make Zhang Jingyuan return all his capital and profits.

"It hurts a bit, please bear with it, I will try to be gentle."

Hearing Zhang Jingyuan suddenly say this, Hu Guangfu was stunned for a moment. What did this mean? And why does it sound familiar? He seemed to have said it tonight.

He subconsciously looked up at Zhang Jingyuan, but without even seeing Zhang Jingyuan's face, he felt a sharp pain in his head, and he fainted instantly.

After using his spiritual consciousness to stir up Hu Guangfu's mind twice to ensure that Hu Guangfu could never remember what happened tonight, Zhang Jingyuan took his spiritual consciousness back.

Feeling that his work was a bit too rough, he couldn't help but sigh twice.

However, there was nothing that could be done about it. He had not learned any spells that could erase people's memories in this life, not even the simplest soul-obsessing technique, so he could only do this simply and crudely, directly hurting Hu Guangfu's mind.

According to his past life experience, this kind of direct damage to the mind and the elimination of memory is more effective and more effective than any method of erasing memory.

After all, doing so is equivalent to directly cutting a part of your mind into pieces.

It has been chopped into pieces, how can I restore it?

But there is a disadvantage in doing this, that is, it will cause too much harm to the body of the recipient. If one person does not do it well, the other person will become an idiot.

It was precisely because of such a skill that he dared to come to Hu Guangfu. Otherwise, if Hu Guangfu remembered him, he would be the one who suffered tomorrow.

After all, he is a fool, not a fool. It is impossible for him to cause such trouble. If the time is not right, he would rather endure it for the time being.

A gentleman's revenge is never too late. For ordinary people, this may be a false proposition. After all, what if your enemy dies before you reach the peak of your magical power?
That's not about crying to death.

But the world of cultivation is different. Everyone has a long lifespan, and the more such a bad guy, the more durable he is. After all, the bastard can live for a thousand years.

"Lao Hu, from now on, maybe you can enjoy the good days of opening your mouth for food, stretching your hands for clothes, and eating and pulling on the toilet. But don't thank me, this is what I should do."

Zhang Jingyuan said to himself after rolling Hu Guangfu's eyelids to confirm that the result would only be better than he imagined, not worse than he imagined, to avoid the possibility of the car overturning in the gutter. Of course he could tell from his experience what Hu Guangfu was thinking when he took out the spirit stone. In addition, he was still a little unfamiliar with this body, so he deliberately acted a little harshly.

There is a high probability that even if Hu Guangfu does not become an idiot when he wakes up, he will not be able to remember what happened in the last three to five years.

But to be honest, this is in the city, and Hu Guangfu is also a member of the yamen anyway, and he just had a conflict with Hu Guangfu during the day.

Otherwise, Hu Guangfu's life would have been lost long ago.

In other words, Zhang Jingyuan's decision on whether to take Hu Guangfu's life or not was entirely based on what was beneficial to him.

After all, his life was much more valuable than Hu Guangfu's gold. In order to save Hu Guangfu's life, he ended up putting himself in danger. It was such a loss and not worth it.

If he died like in his previous life, in the hands of a demonic giant like Wuqi Laomo, he would have died a worthy death, and his death would be of some value.

He would never consider that Hu Guangfu also had a life and was a human being.

In the world of cultivation, humans are more terrifying than demons and ghosts, and they are more cannibalistic.

There were countless monks who died in his hands, and he had already become numb.

After groping around Hu Guangfu's body for a few times, he not only found 34,000 spiritual coins from Hu Guangfu's pocket, but also found two spiritual stones from his trousers.

"I knew you were dishonest."

With that said, Zhang Jingyuan took off all the clothes on Hu Guangfu and threw them into the darkness in the corner.

After doing this, Zhang Jingyuan chose another dark path and staggered towards his home.

"I was planning to eat for lunch, now you eat first."

When I got home, I saw that Zhang Meifeng was still awake and not sleeping. Zhang Jingyuan threw the big pig knuckle in his hand to Zhang Meifeng.

In addition to all the bad habits she had in the past, Zhang Meifeng also had a major characteristic, which was her ability to sleep. If nothing happened, Zhang Meifeng could sleep for ten hours a day. He really didn't know how people could be so sleepy.

Seeing this, Zhang Meifeng was surprised and said: "Did you go out to pick up money today? Why are you willing to buy elbows from Tianxilou and the others? But..."

As she spoke, Zhang Meifeng smelled the elbow and said again: "Why has this elbow been left out for a long time? It's almost stale."

Zhang Jingyuan's face turned slightly red. He saw Hu Guangfu going shopping at Cuilu Building, but he turned around and bought it at Tianxi Building, intending to eat it while waiting for Hu Guangfu.

But who would have thought that Hu Guangfu would be so fast, coming out of Cuilu Building in less than a few minutes.

Instead, he picked the starting position and spent some time.

"It can be regarded as picking up money. I bought this elbow before dinner at night. I have been chatting with Zhao Mingyang and didn't pay attention to keeping it fresh. It's a bit hot today."

Zhang Jingyuan said without blushing or out of breath.

Although Hu Guangfu had deducted one spiritual stone, one body strengthening pill, and one spiritual accumulation pill each from Hu Guangfu today, he got more than five spiritual stones from Hu Guangfu. It's like picking up money.

After all, if he were to accept a mission in the mission hall, he didn't know how long he would have to stick his butt out to earn these two spiritual stones.

"It's already tasteful, so don't eat it tomorrow. I'll process it now, and the two of you will eat it directly. If it's left until tomorrow, it won't be fresh anymore."

With that said, Zhang Meifeng took her elbow and walked into the kitchen.

After Zhang Meifeng's busy work, a delicious and fragrant pork elbow was freshly baked.

He picked up a large piece of skin and put it in his mouth. Feeling the rich and smooth texture, Zhang Jingyuan couldn't help but give Zhang Meifeng a thumbs up.

Although Zhang Meifeng has a bad habit, she has to say that her cooking skills are pretty good.

And what was rare today was that Zhang Meifeng did not ask Zhang Jingyuan to wash the dishes and wash the pots, but asked Zhang Jingyuan to go back to the house to practice.

Seeing Zhang Jingyuan actually going upstairs, a playful smile flashed across Zhang Meifeng's lips, just like a weasel that had stolen a chicken.

"Jing Bao, when you really grow up, you actually know how to visit the kilns."

Zhang Meifeng's face is full of comfort, and my family has the smile of a child who has just grown up.

She clearly smelled a strong fragrance of powder from Zhang Jingyuan's body just now, and this kind of powder smell was not something for serious girls.

"But should I remind him not to let those little goblins suck out his bones and knock out his marrow and damage his body? But how can an old mother say this?"

As soon as her thoughts changed, a deep sadness appeared on Zhang Meifeng's face.
