Chapter 202 Is this also a kind of experience?
Ning Xiaoxi squatted down next to Xu Chang, looking down at the fearful expression on his pale face, "Who sent you?"
Xu Chang looked at the slender and beautiful woman in front of him. This must be the woman his son had mentioned. A bitter smile appeared on his lips. "No matter who you are, the Xu family cannot afford to lose."
Ning Xiaoxi stared at him intently, knowing he wouldn't say anything more. She transformed her spiritual crystal heart into a blade and severed his neck.
She couldn't use magic to wipe out the human race; she'd rather use martial arts to kill them.
[There is no Celestial Master Pavilion base in Pinecone City!]
Ning Xiaoxi returned to the manor with an icy expression. The grass grew as she pleased, and the branches and leaves, like green snakes, burrowed into each room, destroying the rune arrays on the walls. Wisps of souls floated out from the corpses.
In the other two manors, vines that had been coiling around the surrounding trees grew wildly, winding their way into the manors. One vine violently broke through the room where the Netherworld Jade was kept, grabbing one. Another tried to escape, but was instantly pulverized by the thorny vines. The vines deftly separated the powder into three portions; one portion remained where it was, while two others were taken and placed in the other two manors.
The pink bead flew directly into the air, unleashing its full power to create two tornadoes that landed directly within the two manors, absorbing all the demonic energy. Where the tornadoes passed, the mountains cracked, jade fragments scattered, and the earth covered everything; not a single jade fragment could be seen on Mount Yu anymore.
The vines in the courtyard seemed to have a mind of their own, crawling into each room, destroying the talisman array, and releasing the souls.
Ning Xiaoxi stood in the center of the courtyard, arms outstretched, "A gentle breeze arises!"
"The gentle breeze follows my will, my soul departs from the abyss of suffering! My spirit returns to the celestial realm in peace, my lingering resentments vanish and are resolved!"
"Waaaaah! Waaaaah!"
Sobbing cries lingered in the air, rising anxiously on the gentle breeze.
The jade cabbage was held by a plump, ethereal figure, radiating a soft light. It floated in the air with the gentle breeze, and the soft light enveloped all the ascending souls, soothing their sorrow and easing their pain.
The soft light dispelled the dark clouds in the sky, and golden sunlight fell, opening up pathways for the souls to ascend bathed in its light!
Light flickered, and specks of golden light fell, sprinkling onto Bai Cai and Ning Xiaoxi.
Ning Xiaoxi took out the Heavenly Mystery Jade Token and activated her spiritual power. Soon, the voice of the Heavenly Mystery came, "Xiaoxi?"
"My lord, the city lord of Pinecone City has set up a witchcraft array in three manors at the foot of Yushan Mountain, ten miles outside the city, which has harmed nearly three thousand people."
"Damn it, how dare he?"
“The city lord and his son have been brought to justice. I think the Shadow Guard is very suitable to handle this kind of matter.”
Tianji was silent for a moment, then said, "You leave there first. The Shadow Guards will arrive before sunset."
"My lord, is this also part of the training?" After saying this, Ning Xiaoxi stopped inputting spiritual energy without waiting for Tianji's reply.
After mentally checking the map and pinpointing her location, Ning Xiaoxi took a step forward. She appeared about a mile outside the north gate of Songguo City, in a small grove of trees. Ning Xiaoxi's appearance here was inconspicuous. Seeing that no one was around, she walked out and stepped onto the official road.
Pinecone City is just a small town with no outstanding specialties or remarkable figures; it's just an ordinary little county town.
Three thousand people! How many tens of thousands could this small town have?
There were only two soldiers symbolically guarding the city gate, and the flow of people was not large. Everyone's face was gentle and kind. Various shops lined both sides of the bluestone street, but there were not many customers, and they were all quiet and peaceful.
How many rotten and decaying tumors are there in a royal court that has existed for nearly a thousand years? Is it really possible to make things better by slaying all the demons? Thinking about those three manors, Ning Xiaoxi couldn't shake off her bad mood. Just which demons were there?
"Xiao Xi!"
Ning Xiaoxi looked up and saw Tianji standing in front of her in his Heavenly Gang robes.
Tears streamed down Ning Xiaoxi's cheeks. She didn't know why, but she just felt wronged and frustrated!
Tianji just stood there in front of her, saying nothing.
Ning Xiaoxi wiped away her tears. Counting the time Lord Di An and the strategist beat someone up, this was only the second time she had cried. She would never cry again.
“My lord, look at the people in this city.” Ning Xiaoxi’s face was still not good. “They trust the city lord and the royal court. They have lived here for generations. But the one who harms them is the very city lord they trust.”
"Human desires are endless!"
"To feed demons with human lives, how are we any different from demons?" The anger in his chest was still impossible to suppress.
Tianji's voice was calm, "Where do demons come from?"
Ning Xiaoxi calmed down.
“I have just been to the manor. Lord Pinecone City is involved in the witchcraft incident, which involves at least three clans.”
"This city lord has only just taken office. What about his predecessor?" Ning Xiaoxi stared at the celestial secrets.
"Except for the city lord, everyone else was killed with a single blow. Did you ask him?"
"He refused to say anything, wanting to protect his family."
"After such a huge incident, he still wants to protect his family? No wonder he was sent out."
Ning Xiaoxi didn't want him to change the subject, "How was your ex?"
"The Shadow Guards will naturally report to the King, and the King will decide how to handle the matter. The Celestial Masters Pavilion cannot interfere in this matter."
Ning Xiaoxi looked at the flow of people coming and going, "Among them, who else knows that demons exist in this world?"
Tianji said calmly, "They don't need to know, nor do they need to know. With the Celestial Master Pavilion protecting them, all they need to do is stay alive."
“What if a Celestial Master was involved in this? You should know that such an arrangement is not something an ordinary official could make. It would be impossible without the guidance of a Celestial Master, and not just a low-level one, but at least a high-level one.”
"The Celestial Master is also a human being, and he also has selfish thoughts. However, when it comes to the lives of ordinary people, the Celestial Master cannot appear."
"Yes! They've already denied the existence of demons, so why do they still need Celestial Masters? Won't the Celestial Master position just be a profession with no real use in the future?" Aren't the Celestial Master Pavilions in the ten border cities already in the process of being abolished? Right now, they're still a department registered with the Royal Court, but after they're all abolished, they'll probably just be a dispensable department.
Tianji laughed, “Those in positions of authority should fulfill their duties; those not in positions of authority should not concern themselves with politics.”
Ning Xiaoxi looked at Tianji's beautiful phoenix eyes and felt that those eyes were misplaced. "Thank you."
Tianji's smile widened and became more sincere. "Don't you always forget who I am?"
Ning Xiaoxi touched her nose. Yes, it was a demon, not a real celestial master. It was indeed a bit strange that it would complain and even lose its temper with him every time. "I am your subordinate in name only. What's wrong with you listening to me?"
"No, nothing." Tianji suppressed a laugh. This was good; it saved him the trouble of reminding her to be careful.
