94: The matter has alarmed the Yunzhou Immortal Affairs Bureau! The underworld officials are demanding an explanation!
Hundred Thousand Great Mountains.
Taihang Mountain Peak.
Xu Qing, who was chatting with Bai Ling and Liu Mei, suddenly sensed something.
Shifting his gaze, his golden vertical pupils looked out toward the sky beyond the Taihang Mountains.
In the distance, a patch of pitch-black appeared rapidly in the sky, shrouding the entire Fengyang County and even covering some areas on the edge of the Taihang Mountains.
Xu Qing had mastered the Heavenly Gang Law of Summoning Wind and Rain, which significantly enhanced his understanding of wind and water techniques.
Coupled with the Wind Borrowing technique he had mastered previously.
This made Xu Qing exceptionally sensitive to the movement of 'wind'.
"Why is it an orthodox Daoist technique for praying for rain and wind?" Xu Qing was somewhat puzzled.
He was aware of the news about the drought in the Northern Territory of Dagan.
Now that disaster victims were everywhere, crops were withered, and the faith and wishes of the common people were at their most intense and pure.
Bringing rain at this moment would inevitably earn a large amount of Incense Offerings!
Those City Gods and Land Gods would definitely be eager to do such work; how could it possibly be the turn of a Daoist Cultivator?
"This is a bit strange. Could something have happened in Fengyang County?"
Bai Ling stood to the side, gazing into the distance, and asked with some worry: "The Jingyue River God's Jingyue River is in Fengyang County, I am a bit worried..."
Although the River God had not been in the Taihang Mountains during this period, the sisters had always maintained contact.
Every letter the River God wrote to Bai Ling and Liu Mei was always significantly longer than the ones written to Xu Qing.
And in the letters to Xu Qing, most were requests for extra meals and strange proposals for improving the flavor of Spirit Pills.
Therefore, the bond between the sisters was extremely deep.
"I mentioned the marriage matter to the River God a while ago. She said she didn't care, but she must have felt aggrieved in her heart."
Bai Ling turned to look at Xu Qing and continued: "Recently, several places in Yunzhou have been so chaotic. The River God's abilities are all focused on eating and drinking, and her self-preservation capability is not very strong. If..."
Between her delicate brows, a thick look of worry emerged.
A sharp light flashed in Xu Qing's eyes, thoughts raced through his mind, and after a moment of contemplation, he said: "In that case, I will go down the mountain to take a look."
Bai Ling and Liu Mei were both startled upon hearing this and said: "Husband wants to go down the mountain? Will there be danger!?"
"It's fine. Fengyang County is not the provincial capital; there are no powerful characters there."
Xu Qing softly comforted his two wives.
Without even talking about Xu Qing himself, just the great demons under his command numbered in the dozens.
Even if he let Six Liang, the Hedgehog Spirit from Three Spirits Valley who was not good at fighting, go down the mountain, it could push over the entire Fengyang County.
After comforting his two wives, Xu Qing thought for a moment and refined another furnace of Spirit Pills as a small gift for the Jingyue River God.
After a long while, he bid farewell to Bai Ling and Liu Mei and turned to leave down the mountain.
...
Northern Territory of Dagan. Yunzhou, the capital, Linan City.
Within the magnificent Region, buildings were lined up like fish scales, arranged in an orderly manner, divided into several areas, guarding the several building complexes in the center of the Region.
Located right in the middle was the government office of the Governor of Yunzhou.
And next to it, there were also two large building complexes, which were the Demon Slaying Division and the Fengxian Division.
Among them, inside the Yunzhou Fengxian Division, on top of a towering pavilion.
"Ding-a-ling—"
The urgent sound of wind chimes rang out.
The Cultivator guarding the pavilion had a sudden change in expression, leaped to the top of the pavilion, and looked far to the north.
With just one glance, the Cultivator's expression changed drastically.
"Without an order from the imperial court's Yellow Register, how dare you summon rain privately? Are you rebelling!"
Accompanied by a cold snort, the Cultivator's figure disappeared instantly.
However, after just a moment.
An Underworld Official carrying the token of the Yunzhou Fengxian Division escaped into the underground Yin veins and sped towards the direction of Fengyang County.
...
Fengyang County. Downstream of the Jingyue River, Jiangliu Village.
The Underworld Officials of the Fengyang City God Temple saw the black clouds above their heads dissipating rapidly, and their expressions finally looked a little better.
Fortunately, they arrived in time!
If they had let this Li Xuanxiao bring down heavy rain, none of these Underworld Officials would have escaped punishment.
If it were more serious, being regarded as his accomplices, they were afraid they would even have to take off their official uniforms.
Thinking of this, the Fengyang City God's expression turned gloomy.
He turned his head to look at the old Daoist lying next to the altar, sensed that his aura was rapidly dissipating, and immediately turned to his colleague and said: "He cannot die. At least, he cannot die now. The gathering of wind and clouds in Fengyang will inevitably be detected by the provincial capital."
"Subordinate understands!"
A judge nodded and immediately appeared beside the old Daoist, with green Qi surging from his hand and pouring into the old Daoist's crown.
Incense Offerings have the effect of nourishing the Divine Soul and can preserve Li Xuanxiao's life.
With Li Xuanxiao, the main culprit, alive, it would be easier for them to explain to the provincial capital.
Just at this moment.
A gust of Yin wind rose from the ground.
A White-Robed Underworld Official appeared in front of the Fengyang Underworld Officials and the others.
Seeing the Underworld Official and the token in his hand, they were all shocked, then reacted and bowed, saying: "Subordinate, Fengyang City God Huang Yushu, greets the Lord."
"Huang Yushu, you all dared to summon rain without an order from the Yellow Register. Are you courting death?"
The White-Robed Underworld Official shouted in a deep voice.
The Fengyang City God trembled and hurriedly explained everything exactly as it happened.
After a while.
The White-Robed Underworld Official learned the sequence of events, the coldness on his face dissipated slightly, and he said: "Even so, you all still have the fault of negligence, but..."
He turned to look at the unconscious Li Xuanxiao, examined him carefully, and then looked at the altar behind him.
"That's not right." The White-Robed Underworld Official frowned.
The Fengyang City God's heart jumped, and he said: "Lord... is there something wrong?"
"This Daoist's strength is average; how could he trigger such a large-scale rain-praying technique?" The White-Robed Underworld Official frowned tightly and said coldly, "I observe that the altar seems to have the effect of plundering water essence."
As he spoke, his gaze fell on the nearby Jingyue River.
"Where is the Jingyue River God?" He asked in a deep voice.
The Fengyang City God raised his eyebrows slightly and immediately remembered the matter from some time ago.
He had been holding back a belly full of anger, and now that he finally had a chance, he would naturally not let it go.
"Reporting to the Lord, this subordinate also finds it strange. With such a big commotion, the Jingyue River God has not yet appeared."
The Fengyang City God feigned confusion and said: "Li Xuanxiao had come to ask me to summon rain before, but I refused. Could it be... he went to ask the Jingyue River God for help?"
"The rain-praying technique plunders water essence; it is impossible for her, as the River God, not to have noticed..."
The White-Robed Underworld Official muttered to himself coldly.
A moment later.
"Let's go! Follow this official to investigate!"
The White-Robed Underworld Official gave an order and took the lead, speeding along the Jingyue River.
"As you command!"
A glimmer of excitement flashed in the Fengyang City God's eyes, and he immediately led his people to follow.
Meanwhile.
At the bottom of the Jingyue River.
Inside the Immortal Cave where the River God resided.
The Jingyue River God had half her head floating above the water, and upon seeing the black clouds in the sky suddenly dissipate, a look of anger appeared on her pretty face.
"Damn Huang Yushu! To think he could do such a thing!"
