Chapter 131 Return to the city
Yan Hongxue pondered for a moment, thinking of the aristocratic families in Tiansheng City and Lingdu.

He could understand what Marquis Weiyuan and Ming Zihui had done.

If the Celestial Card Maker is indeed the person he's thinking of, then her current situation is the best way for her to grow.

After Yan Hongxue figured it out, he stopped worrying about his identity as a celestial maiden card maker.

The power struggles and infighting in Lingdu were none of his concern; he was merely a minor county magistrate.

He now possesses the cards of the Celestial Card Maker, and he distributes these cards to various villages according to her wishes.

Just that!
Activating these cards requires a high-level Card Spirit Master.

Looking across the entire Zhoushan Town, apart from Jie Yuwei and Jie Huai'an, the only person who has reached the advanced level of Card Spirit Master is Yan Hongxue.

If these villages want to use the Land God card, Yan Hongxue needs to activate it personally.

Yan Hongxue originally thought that his spiritual power would not be able to support the use of dozens of land gods at the same time. Unexpectedly, after he had been busy for more than ten days and dozens of land gods were spread throughout Zhoushan Town, the spiritual power consumed by activating the cards did not drain him dry.

This earth god is truly amazing.

Because he activated all these cards, he has complete control over them and is fully aware of the situation around them.

For example, he placed the local earth god in a village, and he knew everything that happened in the village.

If a case occurs in these villages, he can know what happened without the need for the yamen runners to investigate, simply by reading the feedback from these cards.

What a pleasant surprise!

Xie Yuwei didn't care about what happened in the county government office.

When she planned to hand over the Earth God to Yan Hongxue, she knew he would guess that she was a celestial goddess card maker.

He and Ming Zihui are close friends. Ming Zihui did not reveal her identity, so it is estimated that he is on the same side as Ming Zihui.

Speaking of the Earth God, Xie Yuwei also made several new cards containing illusions and sent them to the Card Spirit Hall in Tiansheng City.

Like the Dust-Avoiding Rhinoceros, these Earth God cards create an illusion once the Card Master infuses them with spiritual power to activate them.

The scenes in the illusion are the origin and responsibilities of the Earth God.

It records the life of a land god, and all who view it feel the same way as Kaling.

With this illusion, the card makers can now understand the land god more clearly.

After receiving the cards from Qi Pawnshop, Lu Qiulin, Hu Yong, Xu Yan, Qiu Xing, and Lu Rongtao, who were far away in Tiansheng City, all fell silent.

They had been unable to create a local deity before because they did not believe in the existence of gods.

They were all deeply shocked when they saw the illusions in the cards.

It turns out that this world is divided into the human realm, the immortal realm, the divine realm, the demon realm, and the underworld...

The Earth God was merely a minor deity.

Humans are also the weakest race.

They couldn't imagine what the people of the world would think if they knew the truth.

"Should we reveal these cards?" Qiu Xing asked hesitantly to the people around him.

The cards they copied did not contain illusions; if these cards had not been revealed, the world would never have known of the existence of the gods.

Xu Yan sighed and said, "Let's release it!"

"Humans must know their place!"

“We’ll each take one of these cards to make copies, keep one in the Card Hall for people to view the illusions, and send one to the Spirit Capital.”

What the people of Lingdu will think after the new card is sent there is beyond their consideration.

Xu Yan made a decision, and they placed the newly made Earth God by Xie Yuwei on the third floor of the Karing Hall for people to visit.

Anyone who is qualified to go up to the third floor and is interested in the Earth God can use their spiritual power to activate this card.

Once they activate the card, they will see the illusion hidden on it.

Those who awoke from the illusion all came to understand the Earth God and the world of the Earth God.

They were like frogs at the bottom of a well, only seeing the tip of the iceberg of the outside world.

Everyone who saw this illusion was shocked.

Their consciousness seemed to awaken at that moment.

This card from the Card Hall is for display only and is not for sale.

In just a few days, this card attracted countless customers.

Some people even travel from outside the city to learn about the world within the cards.

In the past few days, the five Saint-level card makers of the Card Spirit Hall have also replicated the Earth God of Jie Yuwei.

The Card Hall has started selling the Land God card.

The local earth god can protect the peace of a region, and anyone with a bit of wealth will make an appointment to purchase from the Kaling Hall.

The business of the Ka Ling Tang is booming, and the workshop that Jie Yufei planned to build in Nanwen Village has also been completed.

With Lu Ban, the engineer, on board, the workshop was built better than they had imagined.

Over the course of more than a month, Xie Yufei took Xie Yuchen to the back mountain to collect materials for making cardstock and also taught the villagers how to make cardstock.

Even before the workshop was built, they had already learned how to make it and recognized the materials that grew on the back mountain.

Now that the workshop is completed and the production process is overseen by Xie Huai'an, Xie Yufei and Xie Yuwei can finally be free to work on it.

Looking at the workshop's assembly line, Xie Yuwei said, "They have already mastered the production method. My cousin is in charge of the workshop's operation, so you can rest assured."

"Where are they going to sell the cardstock they've made?" Xie Yufei asked worriedly.

Xie Yuwei flicked her forehead and said, "Your cardstock has a spirit-infused effect, so why are you worried about not being able to sell it?"

“I mentioned to Uncle Huang that he would collect all the cardboard produced in Nanwen Village.”

"The villagers only need to take the cardstock to Qi Pawnshop in town."

Xie Yufei was finally relieved.

This formula can only produce basic cardstock; it cannot break through the barrier to producing intermediate cardstock.

She gave it to the village as a way of repaying the villagers for their care of her and her siblings.

Such basic cardstock should not attract the attention of nobles.

Seeing that Yufei had put her mind at ease, Jie Yuwei said to her, "The field trip is about to end. We'll be heading to Tiansheng City in two days. You and Chen'er should go back and prepare."

Xie Yufei nodded.

She had a feeling that they wouldn't be back for a long time after this trip.

She needs to spend the next two days saying goodbye to her friends in the village.

While Xie Yufei and Xie Yuchen were packing their luggage for their departure, Xie Yuwei found Xie Huai'an.

"Sister Wei, you were looking for me?" Xie Huai'an asked.

During this period, he had resigned from his job at the post station and had been busy with the workshop.

He lives a very fulfilling and rewarding life every day.

He likes days like this.

Jie Yuwei said to him, "The academy's field break is about to end. I will take Chen'er and Fei'er back to the academy in two days. The village workshop will be in your hands."

This was expected, and Xie Huai'an nodded calmly.

Xie Yuwei handed him a communication card and said, "This is a communication card. You can activate it to communicate with me if you need to."

Xie Huai'an miraculously received the communication card.

I never imagined there would be cards like this in the world.

After seeing him carefully put away the communication card, Xie Yuwei said, "Cousin, the main purpose of me helping you become a high-level card spirit master is actually to hand over the village's ancient tree spirit and land god to you."

"What?" Xie Huai'an looked at Xie Yuwei in shock.

Does she know what she's saying? Those are ancient tree spirits and earth gods!
She just handed it over like that?

She wanted to give it to him, but he didn't dare to accept it.

“Sister Wei, I will not accept the title of Ten Thousand Year Tree Demon and the Earth God,” Xie Huai’an said earnestly to Xie Yuwei.

Xie Yuwei said, "Cousin, this time when we go out, Chen'er, Fei'er, and I will not be back for a long time."

"If the ancient tree demon and the earth god are placed on me, they will always occupy my sea of ​​consciousness."

"If any emergencies occur in the village in the future, I will be powerless to help."

After thinking about it, Xie Huai'an realized that Xie Yuwei lived far away from home, and if she were to keep these two cards running, it would indeed consume her spiritual power.

If she encounters danger outside, she should try to retain as much spiritual power as possible.

The more spiritual energy you have in your body, the more protection you have.

“Okay! I’ll keep these two cards safe for you,” Xie Huai’an said.

Without further ado, Xie Yuwei took out the two cards and transferred control of them to Xie Huai'an.

After taking control of the Ten-Thousand-Year Tree Demon and the Earth God, Jie Huai'an discovered that these two cards consumed almost no of his spiritual power.

Xie Huai'an: ...

Is it too late for him to return the cards?

After handing over the ancient tree demon and the earth god to him, Xie Yuwei continued, "I have set up defensive formations in both of my family's residences."

"There's a dust-repelling card operating within the formation, so you don't need to clean it."

"The Ancient Tree Spirit and the Earth God are both cards that protect the village. If you want to go to Tiansheng City to find us in the future, you won't be able to do it without these cards."

Jie Yuwei then gave him a disguise card, a Hundred-Narco Card, a High-Level Golden Bell Shield, a Ten-Thousand-Year Tree Demon Card, and a Crimson Moon Demon Card.

"Take these cards," Xie Yuwei said.

Xie Huai'an looked at Xie Yuwei in surprise.

She gave him so many premium cards?

Seeing that he was hesitant to accept it, Xie Yuwei said to him, "Just consider it something I keep in the ancestral hall, and you can keep it for me."

Xie Huai'an then accepted it.

At this moment, he finally realized that Xie Yuwei and her two siblings would not be returning anytime soon.

He said wistfully, "Sister Wei, no matter what happens outside, you must remember Nanwen Village!"

Xie Yuwei smiled and said, "Yes!"

This is where she traveled through time, her starting point. How could she forget?
In the blink of an eye, two days passed.

Xie Yuwei didn't tell anyone that she had handed over the Ten-Thousand-Year Tree Demon and the Earth God to Xie Huai'an.

Only the two of them knew about this.

Xie Yuwei brought Lu Ban with her on this trip to Fengyun Academy, which was quite unusual.

As the three of them walked out of the village, they saw many villagers coming to see them off.

After bidding farewell to them, Xie Yuwei and her two siblings drove away from Nanwen Village in their carriage.

-

After Xie Yuwei left, Xie Huai'an carefully examined the cards she had left behind.

When he infused his spiritual power to examine the card's performance, he saw the illusion hidden on the card.

He learned about the origins of the disguise cards, and the function and story of the Baina Cards.

The legend of the Golden Bell Cover, the myth of the Ten-Thousand-Year Tree Demon and the Earth God.

After seeing these illusions, Xie Huai'an suddenly felt that Nanwen Village was insignificant, and the human race was also insignificant.

So, there really is such a world.

-

After leaving Zhoushan Town, Xie Yuwei went to Shuangbai Town to pick up Sun Shize and his sister, as promised.

The two parties agreed on a time and place, and Sun Shize and Sun Xiaoxiao waited there early in the morning.

“You’ve finally arrived. We’ve been waiting here for two days, and we thought you’d forgotten about me,” Sun Shize said.

The road to Tiansheng City is becoming increasingly difficult. Without Xie Yuwei's escort, they would only dare to set off with the county government's elites.

It's okay now!

They still remember the brother and sister.

Xie Yuchen noticed Sun Shize's nervousness, so he stepped forward, put his arm around Sun Shize's shoulder, and said, "Brother Ze, don't worry!"

"We agreed to return to Tiansheng City together, and we won't break our promise."

Sun Shize smiled slightly, realizing that he had been judging a gentleman by his own petty standards.

Just like when they returned, the group traveled to Tiansheng City in a carriage driven by Coachman Ka.

It took them five or six days to return, but only five days to reach Zeng Bafeng's teahouse on their way there.

"Oh! Are you young masters and ladies returning to the academy?" When Zeng Bafeng addressed them, he was no longer as aloof as he had been when they first met.

"Yes, we need to go back to the hospital," Xie Yuwei said calmly.

After Zeng Bafeng served them tea, Xie Yuwei asked, "After we left here last month, was anyone still following us?"

Zeng Bafeng shook his head and said, "No more!"

He thought for a moment and then said to Xie Yuwei, "Although no one continued to track you, a group of guards passed by here later."

"They were ten men on ten horsemen, dressed in uniform, and should be guards from a large family, but they were not from Tiansheng City."

Xie Yuwei immediately thought of the Lin family members.

It's unclear why they were looking for the original owner's mother.

Although she didn't intend to acknowledge him, that didn't stop her from understanding the whole story.

She needs to investigate if she gets the chance.

After spending some time in the teahouse with Xie Yuwei and her two siblings, Sun Shize and Sun Xiaoxiao, the group of five continued their journey to Tiansheng City.

When they returned to Tiansheng City and entered the city, they could clearly feel the changes in it.

It seemed that everyone in the city was talking about the same thing.

Have you seen that Earth God statue at the Karing Temple?

Does the world within the Earth God's realm truly exist?

"The fact that you asked this shows that you've never been there. Everyone who has activated that card believes that illusion truly exists."

"That must be a world that the Celestial Maiden Card Maker has seen, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to create so many kinds of cards."

"I never imagined that there would be a realm of immortals and a realm of gods in this world, and that we humans exist like ants."

……

Listening to their conversation, Xie Yuwei knew what had happened.

It seems that the existence and legends of the Earth God had a great impact on them.

"What are they talking about?" Unlike Xie Yuwei and her siblings who understood, Sun Shize was completely confused.

What are these people actively talking about?
Why did he feel that Tiansheng City had become unfamiliar after being away for two months?

When the carriage reached the city center, Sun Shize and Sun Xiaoxiao bid farewell to Xie Yuwei, and the brother and sister got off the carriage and headed to their residence.

Thank you everyone for your votes and monthly passes!
good night!
