Chapter 152: #152 - Watching a play

The next day, after Li Yunshang packed her luggage, she bid farewell to the Changchun Zhenren. Before leaving, the Changchun Zhenren gifted her pills.

"Little friend Yunshang, these are pills refined by this poor Taoist. Please accept them. If there comes a time when they are useful, they will help you resolve some troubles."

"Thank you, Zhenren." Li Yunshang naturally didn't stand on ceremony. What she lacked most now were pills. After all, with the Dan Ding Division retreating into Sumeru, the world had lost a sacred place for refining pills, leaving even a direct disciple of the Tai Shen Palace like her short on them.

"Safe travels." The Changchun Zhenren bowed to her.

Shuxiang wailed and threw herself into Jiang Wen's arms, sobbing about her recent experiences. After Jiang Wen comforted her, he looked at Mo Xiang.

Just as he was about to say something, the sound of Xuan Tian's gongs and drums suddenly came from outside the window. Shuxiang got up and opened the window, only to see many constables surrounding two prison carts, slowly moving forward.

"Now that this matter is settled, the immortal masters will surely be happy. The Loose Immortal Fruit rewarded to this official will definitely not be small." The commander was in a pleasant mood, and seeing the hot blood on the execution ground, he ordered people to present the heads.

Jiang Wen followed Mo Xiang's meridians to probe her dantian, seeing strands of golden silk entangled together in the chaotic void.

"This sister is so pitiful, being targeted and bullied like this," Shuxiang said with teary eyes.

The three had their own different opinions, but in the end, they gathered together and watched with relish.

"Then I shall accept your kind offer." Mo Xiang was also not polite, and the two began to discuss the Huangting Scripture, each taking turns to speak.

Jiang Wen didn't quite understand why she was so happy just from visiting a brothel. It wasn't like they hadn't been to similar places when they went to Taicang last time, so why hadn't he seen her like this before?

The murdering maniac was arrested, the murdering maniac was beheaded. The culprit who had plagued Suzhou for a month finally died in the vegetable market, his corpse dismembered, with pieces scattered in unknown places. The commander sat satisfied on the execution ground, watching the scene before him.

"Just call them unlucky for running into this official's hands. Has the identities of these two been investigated?"

Hearing Jiang Wen's words, Mo Xiang stretched out her white lotus-like wrist, a hint of blush on her face, letting Jiang Wen hold her wrist.

"Good!" Li Yunshang exclaimed excitedly.

"I've been missing Brother Jiang." Mo Xiang nodded.

"Naturally, it is like this..." A smile appeared on Jiang Wen's face.

"There are still many questions I want to ask Brother Jiang, I wonder if Brother Jiang has time."

"So interesting! So interesting!"

"My lord is truly ingenious, staging a play of switching the dragon for a phoenix, truly admirable." A constable beside him saw this and came up to flatter him.

Only after Jiang Wen and Mo Xiang finished discussing the Dao did he look at the three lying on the bed and couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

And Jiang Wen and the others upstairs, watching this scene, all showed strange expressions. Although Li Yunshang knew that the two were fake, she couldn't help but burst into laughter at the sight of the stand-ins.

"Brother Jiang." Mo Xiang bowed somewhat shyly, nodding to Jiang Wen.

"You have already entered the door of the Huangting Scripture, you should have half a year of cultivation. It seems that you have not been lazy on weekdays, but have diligently cultivated." Jiang Wen said with satisfaction.

The two exchanged a smile and stopped talking.

"You murdering maniac! You deserve to die!"

And Jiang Wen, watching this grand play, also showed a smile and said to Li Yunshang: "Look, how happy those few are laughing."

"Such mediocre officials, if it were me, I would have chopped him up long ago," Li Yunshang said indignantly.

"What's so good about liking that stinky emperor? Why not just kill him with one knife and become emperor yourself?" Yan Gongli scolded.

After admiring the heads for a while, he ordered people to pack them into boxes.

They looked at the 'Jiang Wen' and 'Yan Gongli' in the prison cart, and their anger was stirred up, throwing all kinds of rotten vegetable leaves at the two.

"Kill him! Kill him!"

"You'll laugh to death," Jiang Wen said unhappily. "After this Jiang Wen and Yan Gongli are beheaded, let's go to Chunfeng Tower to take a look. In my opinion, I'm afraid those demons don't have much patience. Tonight, something will definitely happen in Chunfeng Tower."

Then she looked at Jiang Wen, her eyes full of anticipation: "So when are we going to Chunfeng Tower?"

"I have not dared to forget Brother Jiang's instructions, and have been working hard. It's just that this Huangting Scripture is too profound, and I only have a smattering of knowledge." Mo Xiang was overjoyed when she heard Jiang Wen praise her so much. Her eyes were bright and full of thirst for knowledge as she looked at Jiang Wen.

"Stretch out your hand, let me see how your cultivation is."

"The palace is like this, even if you have outstanding strength, it is full of intrigue," Li Yunshang sighed.

"Of course I do, now I am here to find you. I won't be leaving for a while, if you have any questions you don't understand, feel free to ask me. I will tell you everything I know." Jiang Wen laughed, he had the feeling of being a master for the first time.

"Murdering maniac Jiang Wen! Raping and killing more than thirty women! Harming the people of Suzhou, death is not enough to atone for your sins. This is a public parade, beheading for public display!" The constables beat gongs and drums to clear the way, and countless Suzhou people came to watch.

The commander smiled at him, poured a glass of wine and drank it.

Jiang Wen sized her up, looking at the much more mature Mo Xiang and said with a smile: "It's been a while since I've seen you, you're almost a grown woman. Have you been missing me?"

"We've investigated, my lord, they are wealthy people from Qingzhou. They don't have any backing, mostly just people with some money who come to Suzhou to spend it as they please," the constable said.

Li Yunshang snorted when she heard this: "You don't understand this. That day, that wasn't even a brothel, at most it was an official workshop. This time we're going to Suzhou's brothel, which is quite famous even in Dagan."

"Death is not enough to atone for your sins! Death is not enough to atone for your sins!"

As for Li Yunshang and Yan Gongli, they gathered together with Shuxiang and found a palace drama to watch on the tablet. Perhaps even in the cultivation world, palace dramas still have a market.

"Let's go tonight, it's better to do it sooner rather than later."

"Okay, then what should we do?" Li Yunshang asked with interest.

Seeing her so interested, Jiang Wen didn't say much more. When the night deepened, he used transformation techniques to change the appearances of the group.

Wearing brocade clothes, the four swaggered towards Chunfeng Tower.

The pimp at the door saw this, a look of surprise on his face, and welcomed them with a bow: "Greetings, young masters, please come in!"
