Capítulo 1266: Chapter 1266: River God Above (Part 12)

If the golden light above Hanjiang City is Fanxing, then Chuzheng’s shop is The Moon, incredibly glaring, impossible to miss.

However, they weren’t sure if the Tongtian Temple was inside this shop or if someone had taken it away, so he wanted to sneak in for a look.

Unexpectedly…

Even clams have their day of mishaps.

“You demon sprites are too weak.”

“…”

It’s not that they are weak; it’s that the current demon city is so weak, their powers are gradually disappearing, and no amount of cultivation helps.

The best way is to stay still, to seal oneself up; that way, they might survive a bit longer.

Chuzheng touched her chin thoughtfully after hearing the Clam Demon’s explanation.

So the River God is so powerful because of the Tongtian Temple?

Then why haven’t I gotten stronger!

–

Chuzheng couldn’t figure out the Tongtian Temple, feeling irritated, especially having to deal with those demons and ghosts climbing over walls to find the temple every day, making her mood even worse.

“Ah——”

A scream came from the front, followed by a crowd rushing towards her without warning.

At the end of the street, a giant Bear Demon was leaping and bounding, knocking over stalls and people, injuring them with a single swipe.

Chuzheng leaned against the street side, watching the Bear Demon.

This demon is a bit formidable!

Much tougher than climbing my walls.

The Bear Demon charged straight towards her, and just as Chuzheng prepared to run, out of the corner of her eye she saw someone catapulting out from the side, hitting the Bear Demon and forcing it back several meters.

“Enough with the impudence!”

Lang Sha pointed at the Bear Demon and berated it angrily.

Response came with the Bear Demon’s enraged roar, its claws raked the ground, body slightly arched, gathering strength…

Lang Sha and the Bear Demon engaged in a fight, allowing the townspeople to flee amidst the chaos, quickly clearing the battlefield for them.

Lang Sha had probably recovered during this period and was more than enough to handle a Bear Demon.

“Miss, it’s you!”

Lang Sha saw Chuzheng and walked over with some surprise.

“Last time, when you left suddenly, I thought something had happened to you…”

Lang Sha had saved her once, and she had saved him back, so Chuzheng didn’t feel there was any bond between them, simply nodding lightly with an indifferent expression.

Lang Sha ‘gallantly’ cupped his hands: “I haven’t had the chance to learn your name.”

“Chuzheng.”

“Miss Chuzheng.” Lang Sha’s tone was gentle: “I am Lang Sha.”

Previously, she seemed to have called him by name, although later denied it.

So Lang Sha solemnly introduced himself again.

“Miss Chuzheng, do you know about the frequent demon appearances in Hanjiang City recently?”

“…”

Not only do I know about it, but I also know they are coming for me.

Chuzheng glanced at him: “Have you dealt with the River God?”

Lang Sha sighed and shook his head: “He’s very cunning, the river is his territory, finding him is not easy.”

Originally, Lang Sha was following the river to search for clues about the River God but heard about the demon presence in Hanjiang City along the way.

That’s why he came to Hanjiang City.

Unexpectedly, his first encounter was with a rampaging Bear Demon.

In the distance, some of the townspeople peeked fearfully, seeing Lang Sha standing with Chuzheng, each with faces filled with dread.

“No need to fear, I have killed the Bear Demon…”

Before Lang Sha could finish, the townspeople hurriedly withdrew back.

“…”

Lang Sha scratched his head, feeling puzzled.

However, he didn’t think much of it, thinking it was just the townsfolk being scared.

Lang Sha turned to look at Chuzheng, his peripheral vision catching the Bear Demon lying unconscious, his eyebrows furrowed as he quickly stepped in to shield Chuzheng.

From the other end of the street, a man walked towards them, barely glancing at the downed Bear Demon.

“Stop right there!”

Lang Sha shouted, his weapon humming in his hand.

Lang Sha looked at his weapon, then at the man still approaching, his expression growing graver.

“You, stop right there!”

He couldn’t make any sense of this man’s origin. For more chapters visıt N0v3l.Fiɾe.net

Not human… nor like anything he had seen before.

Xuan Ying stopped five meters away, his clear voice drifted over: “Boss, I’m here to pick up the medicine.”

Chuzheng walked out from behind Xuan Ying: “I thought you weren’t coming.”

“Miss Chuzheng, do you know him?” Lang Sha asked with some surprise.

“Sort of.”

“He…” Lang Sha frowned: “I feel he’s a bit strange.”

“What’s strange about him?” Chuzheng seemed interested.

Lang Sha lowered his voice: “I can’t say exactly, just feels strange, he’s probably not human.”

Chuzheng glanced at the man over there…

Not human?

Then what?

A god? A demon? A ghost?

“Miss Chuzheng, don’t go over there…”

Chuzheng waved her hand, indicating that it was fine.

Chuzheng’s shop was nearby, she lifted the curtain and entered the shop, and Xuan Ying shifted and also walked towards the shop.

When he reached the entrance, the man slightly turned his head to look at Lang Sha, his gaze light, yet Lang Sha felt as though several giant stones weighed him down, making it hard to breathe.

–

Chuzheng tossed the previously prepared medicine over.

Xuan Ying still borrowed the space from Chuzheng to concoct the medicine, though the ingredients were different, the brewed aroma was the same.

So why change the medicine?

Was it just to trouble me for fun?

Xuan Ying didn’t guard the medicine furnace, he came out, walked to the middle of the courtyard, and pulled out several gold leaves from his sleeves: “This is your payment.”

Chuzheng gritted her teeth as she eyed the gold leaves: “I told you I don’t need money.”

Am I short of money?

I’m not!!

What I’m short of is you!

“This is what you deserve…”

“I don’t want it.” Chuzheng narrowed her eyes: “Do you really want to pay me back?”

Xuan Ying nodded: “This is what I should give.”

Chuzheng boldly said: “Alright, kiss me then.”

Xuan Ying: “…”

Xuan Ying probably thought he was hearing things.

She actually asked him to kiss her?

Dare to make such a request to him… she’s the first.

“You ugly hag, how can you be so unreserved!” Jin Li was the first to jump in.

Chuzheng pushed a cover over nearby, covering the fish tank directly.

“Why?”

Finally recovering from his daze, Xuan Ying asked her calmly.

Chuzheng replied casually: “Didn’t you want to pay me? This is what I want as payment.”

Talk about money, so mundane.

How can a boss be a mundane person!

Xuan Ying’s eyes narrowed slightly: “What’s your name?”

“Chuzheng.” Chuzheng with an earnest face: “Kiss me, and I’ll give you something.”

Xuan Ying’s eyebrows lifted slightly: “What thing?”

“Tongtian Temple.” Chuzheng crossed her arms, her cold gaze unwaveringly meeting his: “You came to me, it can’t be just for the medicine, right?”

Xuan Ying naturally wasn’t just here for the medicine.

Within such a short time, she knew about Tongtian Temple…

Previously, she quite clearly didn’t know.

“Is it that easy?”

“Yes.” Chuzheng said: “The Tongtian Temple is useless to me, but you’re different.”

A peculiar feeling flashed through Xuan Ying’s mind, and he couldn’t quite identify it, so he voiced the question: “How am I different?”

Chuzheng earnestly replied: “You are very important to me.”

Good Person Card, oh Good Person Card.

Without you, I’d score zero in this dimension.

Tell me, are you important or not?
