Chapter 144 Reporting to the Authorities and Distorting the Truth (Third Update! Please Subscribe! Also Requesting Monthly Tickets!)

The next day, early in the morning.

Everyone was sitting together eating the breakfast that the servants had brought.

"Hiss..." Wu Qiong rubbed his temples.

This liquor is way too strong.

"Brother Wu, you seem to have had too much to drink last night?" Jie Se asked suspiciously. "You didn't even invite this humble monk to your drinking party, Brother Wu! You're really not very helpful!"

"Sigh, naive child." Wu Qiong looked at him with pity and shook his head. "I didn't drink. I just practiced martial arts all night and fell asleep in the middle of the night. I woke up this morning with a stiff neck."

"Why did you fall asleep while practicing your sexual abilities?" asked the person who abstains from sex in surprise.

"Senior brother, your focus is always so unique," Ye Qingxuan sighed, then asked, "Brother Wu has already reached the Innate Realm, why are you still suffering from a stiff neck?"

Wu Qiong grinned: "Never forget your original intention, and you will achieve your goal. Always remember that we are just one of the many people under the Heavenly Dao. Brother Dao, you have only just stepped into the Innate Realm, how could you have forgotten your Dao Heart?"

Ye Qingxuan opened his mouth, but ultimately said nothing.

He didn't know what to say.

Wu Qiong turned his gaze to Li Jianshi, who seemed preoccupied: "Shi'er, what's wrong?"

"Hmm? It's nothing." Li Jianshi forced a smile, then pursed her lips and said, "Poor brother..."

After this matter is settled, I need to return to my sect.

"Do you want me to come with you?" Wu Qiong asked.

Li Jianshi shook his head and said in a low voice, "No need, I can go back by myself."

Given the situation inside the door, it would be dangerous for the poor brother to go back with her.

Before reaching the Innate Realm, she was not confident that she had everything under control.

Once she reaches the Innate Realm... with her previous life's cultivation at the "Void Realm," she will soon be able to enter the "Daoist Natural Realm." At that time, she will use the same method as in her previous life to control the elders of the sect with drugs, and the Xuantian Sect will then be renamed Li.

As for those guys who are jumping around now, we can just find an excuse to kill them all later.

Now, she needs time, and she needs her master to cover for her for a while longer.

Wu Qiong nodded gently, "Okay, if anything happens, just contact the local Zhaixing Tower. I'll rush over as soon as I get the news."

"Hmm," Li Jianshi replied softly, then turned to look at Su Mubai: "You've been out for quite a while now, hasn't anything happened in your sect?"

She urged Su Mubai to leave quickly.

"Heh." Su Mubai glanced at her disdainfully, then turned away and ignored her.

"You!" Li Jianshi roared in anger.

"Alright, alright, let's all try to maintain peace, let's all try to maintain peace." Wu Qiong forced himself to appease both sides.

Just as he was about to say something, someone came in.

Long Aoyu pushed open the door and entered, with Murong Shengxue following behind him.

"Young Master Wu, when shall we proceed to Qizhou City?" Long Aoyu asked impatiently as soon as he entered the room.

"Lord Dragon, are you in such a hurry to go and die...?" Wu Qiong sighed, put down his chopsticks, and said, "We've almost finished eating, let's get going."

Let's set aside the water for now; the scene shifts, and an hour has passed.

At this time, inside the city lord's mansion of Qizhou City.

"I've been eagerly awaiting your arrival!" The city lord of Qizhou was an ordinary-looking middle-aged man. As soon as he saw Wu Qiong, he began to pour out his grievances: "You have no idea! The Tingyu Pavilion is so arrogant and unreasonable! Their disciples dine and dash in the city every day, and they don't even pay for what they buy! The people of Qizhou are full of complaints because of them. You must do me justice!"

"Uh... I am but a commoner, unworthy of such a grand gesture from the city lord." Wu Qiong cupped his hands and said, "As the lord of a prefecture, do you really need to personally concern yourself with such a trivial matter?"

"Not at all, not at all. I have always loved the people like my own children. The difficulties of the people are my difficulties, and the happiness of the people is my happiness! It's just that..." The city lord bowed slightly: "I am just an ordinary Xiantian. Only a young talent like you, with your unparalleled temperament, peerless appearance, and equally superb swordsmanship, can solve the problems of Tingyu Pavilion. I just need to follow your instructions."

"Are you kidding?! Which official in this Great Zhou doesn't know that this kid is His Majesty's favorite concubine? As a seasoned veteran who's well-versed in the ways of the court, he's quite shrewd. What if this kid whispers something in His Majesty's ear, saying, 'So-and-so doesn't seem reliable,' then he'd be finished!"

Indeed, at this moment, Her Majesty the Empress, who was openly "eavesdropping" on the conch shell, couldn't help but nod. This city lord of Qizhou City is a talent, and he should be promoted in the future!

"It seems the city lord has also received the news." Wu Qiong smiled. "Although Tingyu Pavilion has fallen into the demonic path, even if I want to act on behalf of Heaven, I still need a little... you know what I mean."

The city lord suddenly realized and whispered, "Their disciples don't pay to enter or leave the city."

Wu Qiong exclaimed in surprise, "Huh? You have to pay to enter and leave the city? I didn't pay anything."

The city lord curled his lip. Who would dare to take your money! He had already given the order that if Wu Qiong caused trouble in the city, they should pretend they didn't see it.

As for how he knew what Wu Qiong looked like... he had already used his connections to get a portrait of Wu Qiong from the capital, and had hundreds of copies made. Almost everyone in Qizhou City, from the city lord to the gatekeeper, had a copy.

Wu Qiong then spoke up again: "Isn't there anything a bit more exciting?"

The city lord frowned, then suddenly a thought struck him. He said seriously, "There's a guy named Lin Feng from the Lin family of Tingyu Pavilion. Last time he came to the city to walk his dog, that beast named Teddy forced himself on the beloved pet dog of Sun Laocai's daughter, a wealthy merchant in the city! Isn't that sensational enough?"

"You scoundrel, how dare you!" Wu Qiong roared in fury, shattering the table with a single palm strike: "The disciples of Tingyu Pavilion have committed heinous crimes!"

"How dare he forcibly abduct a woman in broad daylight! When she resisted, he even defiled her on the spot! To produce such a beastly disciple, the Listening Rain Pavilion, even if it hasn't yet fallen into demonic ways, is not far off!"

"Huh?" The city lord's mouth dropped open, and he stood there dumbfounded.

With such a talent for distorting the truth, no wonder he could bewitch the harem! We can't afford to offend him.

As for where this rumor of bewitching the harem originated... a certain powerful figure surnamed Lu smiled but remained silent.

The four members of Xuanji Zixu couldn't help but smile, their eyes conveying four words:

This child is teachable!

"Ahem, in short, the Tingyu Pavilion has committed heinous crimes. Today, I have a grievance to appeal to the City Lord." Wu Qiong waved his hand and beckoned Long Aoyu over: "This is Lord Long of the Senluo Palace. He has a grievance to report to the authorities."

Long Aoyu stepped forward, knelt down with a thud, and cried out, "Lord City Lord, I wish to file a complaint against Tingyu Pavilion!"

"Go ahead and say it..." The city lord was numb by now. The leader of one of the eight demonic sects came to the government to sue a prestigious sect... Heh, he didn't care anymore.

"I have always been an honest and upright businessman. I never forced women into prostitution when I ran a brothel, and I never lent money at exorbitant interest rates when I ran a gambling den. But those people from Tingyu Pavilion actually attacked me! My sons and daughters died tragically at their hands! My daughter also suffered a terrible fate, and her life is now unknown! Please, Your Excellency, do justice for me!" Long Aoyu kowtowed heavily.

Li Jianshi was Wu Qiongyan's boss, and he dared not offend him, so he simply shifted all the blame onto Tingyu Pavilion.

The city lord said weakly, "Then what do you want to do..."

'

"Three days from now, I will have a one-on-one duel with Xiao Miao, the master of Tingyu Pavilion. I request that the city lord represent the Great Zhou Dynasty to be a witness!" Long Aoyu said through gritted teeth, bowing with his hands clasped.

The city lord glanced at Wu Qiong and saw him nod almost imperceptibly, so he agreed, "Mr. Long is a law-abiding citizen and has always paid his taxes on time, which I am aware of. Rest assured, I agree to this matter."

However, the Listening Rain Pavilion is arrogant and unreasonable, and it might be inappropriate for Mr. Long to personally deliver the challenge... How about this, I will send someone to convey the message, and the time will be set for 7 PM three days from now. What does Mr. Long think?

The last sentence was spoken while looking at Wu Qiong.

Wu Qiong nodded: "Then I'll have to trouble you, City Lord."
