Chapter 141: Old and Calculating
The beggar said this with a laugh and immediately dashed off in the direction where the cloud of mist had landed.
But although Weicheng could not compare to the cities of later generations with populations in the millions, it was still a famous city praised by the people of this era. Though the beggar's legs were like the wind, it only took him half an hour to arrive. However, apart from a crowd of dumbfounded and terrified people, he found nothing.
People said that a person had indeed landed here earlier, an incredibly handsome person—how could a demon be so good-looking? It must be a deity who came to Weicheng to eliminate demons.
Others said that the person's attire and dress looked familiar... surprisingly similar to the Taoist priest who had been walking around Weicheng for a while. It was said that this Taoist priest later caused the miraculous event of "a river full of sour soup."
Once this was said, some people exclaimed things like, "I do remember that."
This news spread quickly and was heard by the beggar.
He had originally just wanted to find a stupid demon to kill and take its skin, but now, hearing these things, he calmed down and frowned.
Because he still remembered why he and Yue Yunzi had come to this Weicheng.
After pondering for a while, the beggar slowly walked away, heading back to the Shangqing Elixir Cauldron Sect's residence along the road.
