Under One Person: I, Jiaqian Jushi, work from nine to five

Seeing that Zhou Fengliu was about to slap him again, Zhuge Qing hurriedly spoke up:

"Wait a minute! Old Zhou! My inner demons have subsided! I'm normal now!"

"Normal?" Zhou Fengliu was taken aback at first upon hearing this, then assumed a posture ready to give Zhuge Qing another hard time:

"Those who are normal deserve to be slapped even more!"

"Old Qing! Don't blame me for not remembering our past friendship! Blame it on you joining Biyou Village! You top-tier Zhuge Qing! Watch my little showdown!"

Zhou Fengliu's words startled Zhuge Qing slightly.

Obviously.

He was unaware of the temporary workers' attack on the village. Although he was highly capable, he hadn't received Ma Xianhong's call just now...

...

P.S.: Goodnight and sweet dreams to all my godfathers.

I just want everything every day, sob sob sob.

Chapter 174 Zhuge Qing: Where are the good people?! (First Update)

"Old Zhou! Spare his life! I surrender! I surrender, okay!"

After Zhou Fengliu's explanation, Zhuge Qing quickly guessed that it was the company's temporary workers who had attacked Biyou Village.

He had no emotional attachment to Biyou Village to begin with, so leaving Biyou Village didn't bother him much.

"So you've surrendered already?" Zhou Fengliu didn't press Zhuge Qing any further upon hearing this. He looked at Zhuge Qing and then said:

"Aren't you going to resist?"

"?"

"What? Are you really going to kill me? Do I know any of your secrets? I don't think so. There's no need to be in such a hurry to silence me."

Zhuge Qing got up from the ground, patted the dust off his clothes, and said.

"Alright, since you've surrendered, then you can go down the mountain. Your colleagues at the bottom will be there to pick you up." Zhou Fengliu didn't make things difficult for Zhuge Qing.

"it is good..."

Zhuge Qing nodded and prepared to descend the mountain.

"What about you? Still a while away?"

"Yeah, we need to catch that stubborn old man, and we also need to eliminate that so-called New Intercepting Sect," Zhou Fengliu casually mentioned.

Upon hearing Zhou Fengliu's words, Zhuge Qing raised an eyebrow: "Is that so...no wonder."

Zhuge Qing belatedly stroked his chin, not entirely surprised by the company's purpose.

After all, he had a bad feeling ever since he learned about the composition of these temporary workers. Sending so many people for one Chen Duo was obviously a bit too much of a show.

"Let's go."

"Ah."

Zhuge Qing walked outside.

He hadn't taken two steps when Zhou Fengliu suddenly remembered something and called out to him.

"Zhuge Qing...wait a minute, your things are still with me..."

Upon hearing Zhou Fengliu's voice, Zhuge Qing was first taken aback, then realized that Zhou Fengliu was referring to the Divine Strategist Hundred Refinements. Seeing him turn his head slightly, he then spoke:

"Keep it safe... I don't need it anymore. I trust you to keep it."

Zhuge Qing did not ask for the Divine Hundred Refinements back.

For him now, the Divine Hundred Refinements technique is no longer important. Using such a chaotic technique on him would only cause more trouble, so it would be better to leave it to someone as powerful as Zhou Fengliu.

"You really don't want it anymore?" Zhou Fengliu asked.

"Um..."

"If you don't want to keep it, then burn it for me. Thank you, Lao Zhou."

Zhuge Qing waved to Zhou Fengliu, then headed towards the edge of the village.

Zhou Fengliu raised an eyebrow slightly as he watched Zhuge Qing's retreating figure.

Seriously...

I haven't even learned the Tongtian Talisman yet...

This is another one of his tricks that he's been using?

How long will it take to learn this?

Zhou Fengliu stroked his chin and pondered for two seconds.

He suddenly realized that this divinely refined machine might be a bargaining chip...

...

On the other side, Zhuge Qing walked out of the village without any burden. He glanced back at Biyou Village and then continued down the mountain.

Not far from Biyou Village, he saw two people in the woods in the distance, doing something he didn't know.

One of them was carrying something and caught sight of him.

And he also saw the other person's face.

This face...

This is?

The two recognized each other at almost the same moment.

It's him!

Is that Old Wang?

Wang Daoshi, who was carrying villagers from Biyou Village, saw Zhuge Qing leave Biyou Village in the distance and guessed the general direction of the situation.

That bastard is trying to escape!

The moment Wang realized this, he acted without the slightest hesitation, acting entirely out of instinct.

And what about Zhuge Qing?

Seeing Wang Ye charging towards him menacingly, he realized something was wrong.

Could it be...?

Could it be that he wants it too?

"Old Wang! I'm already!"

Just as Zhuge Qing was about to shout that he had already surrendered, before he could even utter the words, Wang Ye made a hand seal and launched an earthen chariot at him.

In an instant, his mouth was stuffed full of mud.

Grass!

It is a type of plant.

Before Zhuge Qing could even spit out the dirt, the quick-witted Taoist priest Wang slammed him to the ground with a powerful neck sweep and then began to kick him repeatedly.

As Wang Ye kicked, he muttered something under his breath:

"Old Qing! Old Qing! Don't blame me! I'm heartbroken too, but there's nothing I can do. We're on different paths, so I have no choice!"

"Watch this! Ora Ora Ora!"

Wang showed no mercy to Zhuge Qing whatsoever, stepping on him repeatedly without any regard for their past relationship.

"I have already..."

Seeing that Zhuge Qing was about to speak, Wang Ye pressed Zhuge Qing's mouth shut.

"I understand! Don't speak! You don't need to worry about our friendship, right?! Come on! Let's do it!"

OK OK.

Hearing Wang Ye's words, Zhuge Qing understood.

This king didn't use any skills; it was all about emotion!

I just want to mess with him!

"I surrender, I've surrendered, and I'm leaving Biyou Village!"

Zhuge Qing was afraid that Wang Ye would kick him to death, so he broke free from Wang Ye's grasp and shouted loudly.

"..."

Hearing that Zhuge Qing had already surrendered, the king could no longer make any moves. He quickly put on a panicked expression and then helped Zhuge Qing up.

"Old Qing! I was reckless! But this is also your fault. Why didn't you say so sooner? If you had, would I not have treated you like this?"

"..."

"You should have said so earlier?" Zhuge Qing wiped his mouth and glared at Wang Ye.

"Didn't you tell me to say so earlier?"

Zhuge Qing was furious.

I'm really angry.

That night, after barely managing to overcome his inner demons, he tried to go out and get something to eat, but before he could find anything to eat, Zhou Fengliu slapped him hard across the face.

Having just figured out what was going on and left Biyou Village, thinking everything was fine, Wang Ye suddenly appeared out of the woods and kicked her again.

awful!

The word "miserable" cannot fully describe what happened to him tonight.

What an unexpected disaster!

Neither Zhou Fengliu nor Wang Ye... are good people!
