Moreover, little Twilight had always been taken care of by Shen Huanyan before, and now it was just a matter of confirming the matter legitimately. In this regard, Shen Yuelan, who had already fled, said that the arrangement was very reasonable.
Shen Yuelan ran away not to avoid her adopted daughter and her companion enchantress, but because the group of colleagues across the street finally slowly floated over.
[Hey, sisters, which department are you from? ]
[Gui An, sister, we are from the Treasury Department of the Mythology Administration.]
[Storage Department? Um, are you the logistics department of the Mythology Administration? ]
[Of course not, we are just called this by that name. In fact, we are the department responsible for monitoring and suppressing the mythological monsters in various surface worlds. The little ghost princesses in your home are also under our management. By the way, is the ghost princess named Dujuan the one I issued to you for adoption? ]
[Oh!! You are the current Chang'e fairy. Please write me an autograph. My little girl likes you very much.]
[Eh? Signing is fine, but do you have a child? I remember you were only about three years old? Hiss, who did it? Was it that bastard? ]
[Captain Shen, don't worry. We have some side jobs in the Treasury Department. Dealing with this kind of scum is also within our business scope. Tell us who did it, and we promise to deal with it cleanly. After three days, this scum will no longer exist in any timeline! ]
Shen Yuelan swallowed hard when she heard this. Who did it? Strictly speaking, it was Liu E. After all, when the two of them really started to get stale, Liu E was already a married woman in her thirties, and she was still a child of about three years old.
But this matter cannot be discussed in this way. Not to mention that the way Shen Muguang was born is indeed special, even if Liu E was really exposed, who would dare to be friends with him in the future? The sequelae will be too serious.
[Ah, no no no, Miss Chang'e, you misunderstood. This is what happened...]
Shen Yuelan quickly described the birth process of Shen Muguang to Miss Chang'e in front of her, and then persuaded the clerks who were sharpening their knives behind her.
However, Shen Yuelan was still a little restless in her heart. She had not seen Liu E since that day. Who was Liu E in the other world? Why did she want to keep Shen Muguang by her side?
She had so many questions she wanted to ask her, but she didn't know where to start. Although she really wanted to cause trouble, Shen Yuelan thought about it and decided to give up.
Although she didn't think that with the abilities of the few people in front of her, it would be easy to find Liu E's whereabouts, but what if? What if the two groups really started fighting, what should she do? Dance and shout, "Stop fighting?"
Shen Yuelan felt embarrassed just thinking about it. Forget it, forget it. It would be better not to cause any trouble and just do her mission in the Tang Dynasty honestly.
Chapter 296: Yaodaoji Squadron! Attack!
Just when Shen Yuelan was considering whether to agree to Miss Chang'e's proposal, a loud noise not far away interrupted Shen Yuelan's thoughts. It was the unusual movement from Huqiu.
[Tsk, it looks like the enemy who broke the seal this time came prepared. Captain Shen, please think carefully about my suggestion. Let's go take care of some business matters first and we'll talk later.]
[Okay, thank you, Fairy Chang'e. Don't underestimate the enemy.]
[Hehe, okay, thank you for your advice. By the way, don’t call me the fairy Chang’e anymore, it’s embarrassing. That’s just my profession. My real name is Jie, and I use the moon as my surname, so I’m Yue Jie.]
After Yue Jie finished speaking, she flew towards Huqiu with a group of staff members behind her. At this time, they were all wearing pure white fairy clothes and pretending to be flying. The feeling of floating in the air really had a bit of the charm of a weak fairy.
Shen Yuelan looked down at the coat she was wearing. Although it looked very cute, it pales in comparison to the long-sleeved skirts worn by Yuejie and the others.
Didn't Shen Yuelan want to wear a skirt? Of course she did, and she also wanted to try the half-chested skirt known as the evening dress of the Tang Dynasty. However, her hardware was not up to par, so she could only change into a shirt and jacket that was in line with the style of the late Tang Dynasty.
This matter cannot be mentioned. Talking too much about it may hurt one's self-esteem. Although the figure and other things were chosen by Shen Yuelan herself, after all, she liked it that way at the beginning, but every time she meets someone, others will bring it up.
As time went by, Shen Yuelan began to resent her immature figure, but it was impossible to change it. She had to stick to the path she had chosen, and Shen Yuelan was that ruthless.
Shen Yuelan, who was standing on the hillside in deep thought, was suddenly awakened by a splash of liquid. The warm liquid exuded a sweet fragrance, but in Shen Yuelan's view, this drop of liquid was extremely terrifying, because the smell on it was not unfamiliar to Shen Yuelan. This was the blood of Miss Yuejie.
Shen Yuelan almost laughed out of anger when she saw this. Who had promised not to encounter such a thing again? If she could survive this time, she would definitely dig out that bastard's heart to see if it was black!
But for now, staying alive is undoubtedly Shen Yuelan's most important goal. She has to reunite with her companion enchantress first before thinking about anything else.
At this time, Shen Huanyan and the other two were also looking in the direction of Tiger Hill. They naturally wanted to run away immediately, but Shen Yuelan had not come back yet, and they could not abandon her, so they had to find a more secluded place to hide and wait for Shen Yuelan to find them.
Shen Yuelan's red eyes played their due role at this moment, allowing Shen Yuelan to quickly confirm the position of everyone. At the same time, she was also able to see what was happening on the battlefield at Tiger Hill?
Different from their beautiful image just now, which showed the appearance of immortals, Yue Jie and her group now looked extremely embarrassed. Not to mention their torn clothes and covered with scars, the most serious problem was that their team had begun to suffer casualties. The morale of the team was very low and they might not be able to hold on for much longer.
Their enemy is a fallen immortal god who looks like a fairy. Shen Yuelan made this judgment because except for the slightly different color of the opponent's clothes, the other details are very similar to those of Yue Jie and others, so he should be from the same lineage as them.
[Tsk, so this is the Mythology Administration's business? Then I have no right to intervene. Besides, since they can't even kill a fallen body like this, I can't expect them to handle Liu E's affairs. I'm leaving now.]
Shen Yuelan, who had greased her feet, didn't know that the fallen immortal god had already passed through the defenses of Yue Jie and others and set his sights on her. No one knew the origin of the two, but the moment their eyes met, fate had already taken shape.
You can't escape, and you can't get away.
Shen Yuelan quickly left the battlefield and found everyone in an inconspicuous narrow cave. In order to reduce the target, Shen Yuelan threw Shen Huanyan and Shen Muguang into the core space, and then quickly fled north with Xiao Yuhuan.
It was impossible to go to Suzhou City, as that place would definitely become the main battlefield for the fight between the two forces, and the outcome would not be much better than Tokyo City. Therefore, Shen Yuelan had to temporarily set her escape destination in Yangzhou City, north of Suzhou.
Nothing happened that night, and the focus turned to Yangzhou City, a hundred miles away.
Shen Yuelan had no idea what a mess the battle in Suzhou City had turned out to be. In fact, she didn't want to know. She was currently staying in Yangzhou City, eating "cage cakes", or steamed buns, with Xiao Yuhuan.
After successfully escaping from Suzhou city, the two of them headed north madly, running for a whole day and night, and only now dared to stop to eat something.
[Captain, is this really okay for us? Those sisters didn't just meet us by chance, but they came to see us with some good intentions. If we just leave like this, isn't it a bit unkind?]
[You are right, but the problem is, what can we do to help them? If we can defeat them, then everyone will be happy, but the question is, can the two of us defeat them? ]
[I am not afraid to tell you that I watched the battle situation on Gusu Terrace for a while. If I didn't have Su Shang and Du Juan by my side, I don't think I could beat that civil servant named Yue Jie. What about you? Do you think you would be of any help to the war if you went there?]
[I know, Captain, I know all this, and I also know that I am insignificant on the battlefield, but I don’t think this is a reason for us to be deserters! ]
[Even if you might die in that war? Like Lin Jia?]
[Yes, even if I die in battle, even if I become like Lin Jia.]
[Captain, I have been immersed in the grief of losing Lin Jia. I don’t understand why I am worthy of Lin Jia’s rescue. I am so ordinary and useless.]
[Later, I returned to the Yaodaoji Administration, where I would see those young Yaodaojis rushing to the battlefield without hesitation every day. I didn’t know why they were so fearless, just like I never understood Lin Jia and the others.]
[Until one day, I finally couldn't help but pull a young demon sword girl and ask them why they fought so hard. Isn't it better to live a good life? Guess what she said? ]
[She said, because I want you to live, Captain, she said, because she wants me to live~]
[Captain, the reason why we can eat buns here is not because we are lucky, but because there are always people carrying the burden for us. ]
[I know that you have always held a grudge against what happened back then, but none of us, whether dead or alive, have ever regretted it.]
Shen Yuelan listened quietly to Xiao Yuhuan's monologue without saying a word, but the tears welling up in her eyes had already betrayed her uneasy heart.
[Really? Are all of you Yaodaoji like this? Ning An is like this, Lin Jia is like this, and you are like this too.]
[Haha, maybe. Then, Captain, please give the order. Even if I am the only one by your side, the Demon Sword Squadron must live up to the name of the Demon Sword! ]
[Ah, really, I don’t care what the outcome will be, just follow my orders, Youtohime Squadron, attack!!!]
【promise!】
Chapter 297 Kind-hearted
[Heh, I am really old, my eyesight is not very good anymore. I thought you, Chang'e, were some high-end stuff, lying dormant for so many years before daring to rush out. I didn't expect you to be so vulnerable. It's true that clothes make the man, and saddles make the horse.]
[Ahem, I've already told you that my name is Yue Jie, and Chang'e is just my occupation. Why don't you understand? ]
[Humph, you are still playing tricks on me, ah, you want to delay time? Haha, stop dreaming, I have already set up a hidden hand in this space and time when I broke through the seal for the first time. The outside world will definitely not know what happened here, so just give up on this idea. ]
[As for those bugs that ran away not long ago, haha, they didn't even have the courage to face me, so how can you expect them to do something for you, haha.]
Yue Jie, who had been knocked to the ground long ago and was barely breathing, was not shaken by the enemy's words. She stared at the enemy in front of her, hoping that the other party would reveal some flaws so that she could deliver the final blow.
However, the enemy had seen through her intentions and mercilessly shattered her beautiful eyes. Her limbs were already broken, and now even the enemy could not see her. Apart from waiting to die, Yue Jie seemed to have no other choice.
Just when she fell into despair and was about to self-destruct to make her determination clear, a soft touch suddenly appeared behind her.
Who is it? Her subordinates were clearly dead or wounded, there was no living creature around them, and their routes were cut off, so it was impossible for reinforcements to appear. So, the person who came was obvious.
[Captain Shen, you shouldn't have come. That evildoer is too strong. You are no match for him. Moreover, this official has concealed the time and space here. The other world has no idea what happened here. Coming here is tantamount to sending yourself to death. Ahem.]
[Okay, okay, Miss Yue, we all know what you said. If you win, it doesn’t matter whether we come or not. But if you are in this state, if we don’t come, then it’s a problem of our character.]
[Also, don’t underestimate those old-timers above us. If they could be covered up so easily, the world there wouldn’t be here today.]
[So, do you understand? This is the end of the matter. It is best for you to leave here now. Otherwise, once the old foxes react, the freedom you have worked so hard to get will be lost again.]
Shen Yuelan's nonsense posed no threat to the Tiger Hill monster. Not only Shen Yuelan knew this very well, but even the blind Yuejie could hear it.
But everyone knew what was wrong with that Tiger Hill demon. She was actually persuaded by Shen Yuelan's lies and turned away. But when she left, she looked at Shen Yuelan with a rather resentful look and said something inexplicable to her.
[Your eyesight is so terrible that you still haven't recognized me. ]
Shen Yuelan was stunned when she heard this. What was going on? Was this the rotten peach blossom again? When did I provoke her? How come I have no memory of it at all?
Before Shen Yuelan could figure it out, two piercing gazes from behind suddenly interrupted her thoughts. One of them was naturally from Xiao Yuhuan, but whose was the other one? Wasn't Yuejie blind?
At this moment, a familiar voice suddenly came, solving Shen Yuelan's doubts.
[Oh my, you are so impatient. I warned you to be careful a long time ago. My unlucky disciple also warned you, but you still made yourself look like this. Should I say that fate cannot be violated? ]
[Hey, Boss, instead of complaining about me, why don't you give me a hand? If you keep on wasting time, I'm afraid you'll only be able to bring back my body.]
[Humph, a crippled body is a crippled body, and you should be taught a lesson. Look at how scared my disciple is. I had promised her that this would never happen again, but I didn't expect you to break my promise.]
Hua Liluo angrily complained about Yuejie's actions, but her hands never stopped and she was always helping Yuejie treat her injuries. Yuejie was right when she said that if Hua Liluo hesitated any longer, she would really die.
Seeing this, Shen Yuelan did not hesitate and immediately released the medical fairy who had been left in the core space for a long time to help Yue Jie recover from her injuries.
[By the way, Yue Lan, your master is old and can no longer walk. The demon has fled to Hangzhou City. Please help me deal with her.]
[Huh? Sister Hua, you really think highly of me? With my body, can I fight her? ]
[This has nothing to do with respect or disrespect. It is a sin you committed, and you have to pay for it.]
[Is it my fault? Hiss, that demon did say that he knew me, but I don't have any impression of him. Sister Hua, can you give me some hints? ]
[That demon's name is Lü Zhiwei.]
When Shen Yuelan heard this, her heart skipped a beat. Tsk, it was all her own fault. At the end of the Warring States mission, Shen Yuelan killed several demon beauties, one of whom was Lu Zhiwei.
Shen Yuelan thought she was dead, but she didn't expect to meet her here, and she became so powerful. Damn it, maybe this matter can only be solved by herself, and she can't let others interfere.
As for whether she could finally coax the lost cat back, Shen Yuelan was somewhat worried, but she had to go anyway. It would have been fine if she didn't know the answer, but now that she knew the other party's identity, she couldn't let herself be beaten to death by others.
[Oh, I know, I know. I'll be there in a minute. I thought she was long gone. The correction mechanism of your Time Management Bureau is really unreliable. They can even let this slip.]
[It would be fine if he fell behind. You should have told me earlier so I could pick him up. But it seems like no one knows about this. I really don’t know what that poor little guy has been through all these years.]
[Stop complaining. Nothing is perfect in this world. It is normal to make mistakes occasionally. And we didn't kill your pet. You should be happy.]
[By the way, if you succeed in persuading her to come back, remember to go to the Debt Management Bureau to settle the accounts. This dog has caused a lot of damage to the surface world over the years, and you, as its owner, need to pay for it. In addition, several of our management bureaus will help you seal up her custody fees, pensions, overtime pay, mental damages... Adding them together is not much, about 80 to 90 billion.]
[Wait, wait, are you kidding me? I'm not worth this much money even if you sell me. Can't I just give up this enchantress? ]
[Oh? Are you sure? That's a high-level enchantress that even the Mythology Administration can't easily subdue. If you persuade her to come back, and you meet a demon king like a transformed demon, killing them will be as easy as stepping on an ant. Are you sure you don't want to think about it again?]
Shen Yuelan swallowed a mouthful of saliva when she heard that. Eighty or ninety billion didn't seem like an impossible amount. Didn't Gan Yuelong still owe her a promise? So she could help her shoulder... more than half of the debt. Hehehe, I am such a kind-hearted person.
Chapter 298 The Demon God Knows
In response to this, Gan Yuelong, who was slacking off in some surface world, expressed his disdain!
However, even if Shen Yuelan was willing to spend the money, she couldn't just spend it whenever she wanted. First, she had to go to Hangzhou to persuade the person to come back and take on the debt.
[Okay, I'll go over and take a look first. Remember to keep a close eye on me, don't let me lose my life over this.]
[I know, I know. I arrived just in time. Otherwise, do you really think that you can persuade a demon god to retreat with just a few words of nonsense? ]
[Demon God? What's going on? Didn't they say the highest level is only the Demon King? Why are we also inflating the stats? ]
[What is numerical inflation? Didn't Yuelong teach you that? Previously, the highest level of the enchantress was set at the Demon King level. It's not that levels above the Demon King level don't exist, but because the highest limit that our equipment can detect is the Demon King level. ]
[Not long ago, our equipment was upgraded, and the detection of the strength of the enchantress was also improved to a higher level. Now we can measure the strength of the enchantress at the level of the demon god. ]
Shen Yuelan curled her lips indifferently when she heard that. Humph, why didn't you do it earlier? It must be that the death of Su Xin and others caused a stir among the top leaders of the inner world, so they thought of updating the equipment. If nothing happened, these old guys would probably use the original set of equipment until the inner world is destroyed.
Hua Liluo naturally saw Shen Yuelan's dissatisfaction, but she was not the only one who had the final say in the inner world. Turning Lu Zhiwei into a demon god and returning him to Shen Yuelan was the greatest compensation she could do for Shen Yuelan.
Shen Yuelan naturally knew this. The tragedy had already happened, and it was not a wise move to speak ill of the family members who cared for her. So she just complained a few words and left.
Yangzhou and Hangzhou are not too far apart. It took Shen Yuelan about three days to reach Hangzhou City. Unlike the devastated city that Shen Yuelan had imagined, the atmosphere here could even be described as peaceful.
It seems that Lu Zhiwei's resentment for being imprisoned for thousands of years has been almost vented in Suzhou. Shen Yuelan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. If the other person's resentment had not yet dissipated, she was afraid that she would have to be beaten again.
[Okay, Captain, stop being sneaky. If it's a blessing, it's not a disaster. If it's a disaster, it can't be avoided. Go and meet the people openly. You haven't done anything wrong. Where is the energy that led me to charge before? ]
[That being said, don't you think it's a bad behavior to lose someone as their owner? ]
[Huh, so you knew that too! ]
Just when Shen Yuelan was arguing with Xiao Yuhuan about whether she was at fault or not, a familiar yet unfamiliar voice suddenly interrupted their conversation. Shen Yuelan knew who the owner of the voice was without turning around.
At this time, Lu Zhiwei took off the worn-out gray-black skirt and changed into a set of bluish-white men's clothing. She looked very handsome, and had completely lost the evil aura that was seen at the beginning.
[Hehe, sorry, Zhiwei, I didn't expect you to be still alive. I waited for you in the Warring States for a long time but didn't see you, so I thought you didn't make it. ]
