I am a demonic cultivator, not a capitalist with a conscience.

Chapter 177 Is this also part of the plan? (26)

Although he didn't know who the other person was, the person had a smile on their face, but their gaze was cold and aggressive, and they also had an arrogant air about them, which made Chen Yu very unhappy.

Just as he was about to memorize the other person's appearance, he realized that the other person had quietly disappeared into the crowd and could not be found again.

He sighed regretfully as he received a message from Liu Qing informing him that the two had finished their prayers and were preparing to return to Tianyuan.

After the two and three of them finished talking about their experiences in Wenchang City, they walked towards the location of Hercules and fell silent upon arriving at their destination.

Their Hercules is gone.

The spot where the Hercules toy used to be parked is now empty. A patrol and law enforcement notice floats in the air, revealing its text as Chen Yu and his group approach:
[A report has been filed alleging that this Hercules puppet is of unknown origin and is suspected of possessing illegal items. It has been towed away for inspection. The puppet owner is requested to remain in the city and wait patiently. We will provide feedback within three business days.]

After reading the enforcement notice, Chen Yu was about to explode when Liu Qing stomped his foot on the ground and roared angrily, "Which bastard arrested our puppet?! Don't they know who we are?!"

A nearby night watchman, hearing Liu Qing's cursing, was excitedly about to come over and deduct money and merits, but after seeing the 460 above Wang Chuyun's head, he left dejectedly.

In Wenchang City, even the most notorious night owls have been influenced by the local atmosphere, and they dare not utter a sound when they see high-scoring students.

Liu Qing stared at the Night Wanderer's retreating figure and spat fiercely: "The 460-point young lady is right next to me, you dare to touch me!"

Chen Yu looked at Liu Qing and asked, "How can you see the Night Wanderer?"

"Ah I……"

When Chen Yu noticed that Liu Qing was sweating nervously and turning her eyes away to escape, he didn't press her for details, assuming it was probably related to her demonic cultivation characteristics.

Scratching his head, Chen Yu looked at the spot where Hercules had disappeared, feeling that things were getting a bit complicated.

With Hercules gone, the only way they can get back is on foot, which will take them three days.

Moreover, we'll have to retrieve Hercules later, which will take another three days or so.

The best option now is to stay in Wenchang for a few days until Hercules is out of danger before returning.

To confirm that Hercules would be able to leave, Chen Yu contacted Shi Ling, who in turn contacted the patrol through the vice president and then replied to Chen Yu.

Shi Ling: [It's confirmed. Someone did report you for illegally possessing a magical artifact. The person who reported you is of high status, so the patrol can only enforce the law impartially. However, if there are no problems, it will indeed be returned in three days.]

Chen Yu: [Thank you. Then let's wait three days.]

Shi Ling: [In that case, let our vice president show you around for a few days. It just so happens that it's currently a blessing ceremony, and you'll need a guide.]

Chen Yu: [No need to trouble the vice president, we'll just stroll around. Thanks to the Dream Weavers Association, goodbye.]

After ending the contact, Chen Yu stared at the spot where Hercules had disappeared, involuntarily recalling the chill he had just felt and the white-haired old man staring at him.

He had a good memory, but now, when he tried to recall it, he found that he couldn't remember what the other person looked like no matter what. It must have been the effect of some special technique.

Moreover, since they are so old, their level of understanding should be higher than mine, but I don't know how much higher.

"That old bastard must have reported me! How can people be so wicked these days!"

"What old bastard?" Liu Qing asked curiously.

After recounting what he had just witnessed, Liu Qing flew into a rage and said angrily, "You wait, I'm going to deal with that old bastard!"

"You don't even know him, so who are you going to deal with?"

"Then let's teach every old bastard a lesson! Today, I'm going to show them what it means to respect the elderly and care for the young, and that everyone is equal!" Chen Yu pulled back Liu Qing, who was already in a frenzy, and told her not to run around. If she got lost, they would have to go to the lost children's center to rescue her.

Chen Yu didn't think the other party was reporting him for no reason; they probably had some ulterior motive and wanted him to stay in Wenchang.

If they leave now without Hercules' protection, they will find it difficult to escape if they encounter danger on the way.

If you try to contact the supervisory authorities, they might not help you. They might even try to keep you here because you are currently under suspicion and cannot leave at will.

If it were just me, it would be fine; I could use the system's tactics to take them down one by one, dealing with as many as they came.

However, with Liu Qing and Wang Chuyun nearby, things might get a bit complicated.

and many more……

Chen Yu suddenly remembered something and looked at Liu Qing, asking, "I remember you got a perfect score in PE, right?"

“That’s right!” Liu Qing proudly puffed out his chest. “Our sports performance is absolutely perfect. We’ve even reached level nine in some events. I’m confident that no one my age can withstand my punches.”

"And Wang Chuyun, what about you?"

"95." Wang Chuyun smiled sheepishly, "My practical combat skills aren't very good."

"...What's there to be afraid of? Let's just tackle the problems head-on. But just in case, I'll go find some people first, hmm...let's get Zhong Zheng over. He's an old guy too, so it'll be interesting to see an old man fight another old man. Liu Qing, go ask Teacher Zhao for leave and tell him we won't be coming back for the time being."

"You should treat me. I definitely won't agree to it if I do, but it'll be fine with you. Teacher Zhao will definitely consider it part of the plan."

"That's true. They're always making plans, and I just can't understand them."

The little hamster squinted at Chen Yu and asked in a low voice, "Chen Yu, tell me honestly, is this also part of the plan?"

"You come too!"

After speaking with Zhong Zheng, the other party assured Chen Yu that they would arrive soon and that he could rest assured.

Upon hearing this, Teacher Zhao immediately prepared to come over. However, after learning that Zhong Zheng had already departed, she replied reassuredly, "Then it's alright. Zhong Zheng seems unreliable, and in fact, he is quite unreliable. But if a fight really breaks out, I can only say that Old Ghost still has his own strengths. Moreover, the other party is the Inspector of Changsheng Prefecture, and has considerable power in Wenchang City. With him around, you don't need to worry."

Chen Yu: [Then I'm relieved.]

Zhao Ziri: [I know you're not coming back because something must have happened. Be bold, don't back down! If something happens, kill the other party first. At worst, you'll just pay a fine; it's better than being imprisoned in the Human Emperor's Flag prison later.]

Chen Yu: [I understand!]

Zhao Ziri: [Also, tell Liu Qing to come back for extra lessons. What was she doing in her labor class?!]

Chen Yu: [Oh.]

After sharing the information, Chen Yu, dragging the weak-legged Liu Qing, began looking for accommodation with Wang Chuyun.

Since I've decided to stay, I might as well attend the Wenchang Star Lord's blessing ceremony and see if I'll be lucky enough to win the grand prize.

As for whether the Fire God would cry, Chen Yu thought about it and decided to leave it at that.

If you can help me improve my score painlessly, I'll attend your blessing ceremony.
