38: It turns out that ordinary people can also have their justice served!
They didn't know how to describe it.
It felt like he, who had been wallowing in a garbage heap, was starving and wanted a mouthful of food.
A noble Young Miss, without the slightest disdain, personally took his hand and invited him to dinner, with plenty of fish and meat to enjoy!
It was also a kind of...
A feeling of being respected that they had never experienced before!
Lu Chen hanging the corpse of the neighboring City Lord on a hoe.
He was venting their anger for them!
The word 'venting anger' didn't even fit them.
But now.
Not only was their anger vented, but the target of that anger was also the esteemed City Lord!
Moreover, that City Lord paid the price with his life!
Their hearts were completely warmed by Ning Xiwei and Lu Chen.
"Thank you!"
"Is this what it feels like to have justice served!"
"I feel so warm inside, even the pain from my injuries isn't as bad."
"Lord Ning is truly a good child."
"With a City Lord to accompany us in death, I haven't lived in vain."
"Yes, I can die without regrets!"
Their bodies were cold, but they were filled with joy.
"Little Skeleton."
Ning Xiwei looked at these uncles and aunties, trembling from pain, yet their faces were full of smiles.
She couldn't help but wipe away tears.
When she was young and couldn't survive, it was these uncles and aunties who occasionally gave her food and clothing, allowing her to barely live.
Now.
They were on the verge of death.
She also wanted to reach out and help them, just like they did.
But.
Pure life energy is so precious.
And now there were more than a dozen lives.
Little Skeleton's burden would definitely be huge!
But she really couldn't bear to see the people who had once extended a helping hand to her die.
She pursed her lips.
Her cheeks gradually flushed.
Closing her eyes, as if resigned to fate.
Her fair little hand gripped Lu Chen's forearm bone, shaking it left and right.
Her brilliant eyes slightly lowered, her small mouth pouted, and her voice was incredibly soft and sweet,
"Save them, okay? Please, okay?"
Hmph!
The Little Girl can even act spoiled!
This charming and lovely little appearance is quite interesting.
A rare sight!
Towards the commoners living at the bottom of this world.
Lu Chen had no prejudice whatsoever.
Nor did he view commoners as lowly, like those Professionals.
Everyone is human.
No one is nobler than anyone else!
Since you dared to make a move, then killing you is only right and proper.
Even if you are a City Lord!
You must die!
Moreover, in Ning Xiwei's eyes as she looked at the commoners, Lu Chen saw gratitude.
It's likely that the solitary Little Girl, when she was young, received help from these commoners, who were more righteous and loyal than Professionals.
Since that's the case.
They must be saved.
At the same time, Lu Chen checked the record of instantly killing Lei Pengcheng.
[Strength +332]
[Physique +200]
[Acquired Skills: Thunder Fist, Thunder Roar]
[racial value +365]
[Life Force +3666]
He glanced at the severely injured, dying commoners.
They were all ordinary people.
A complete body plus a complete Soul is only worth 1 point of Life Force.
These people have complete Souls, meaning their bodies are severely injured, but their limbs and organs are intact.
If a healing Professional were to come, it would require a lot of effort, exhausting them, and even using quite a few resources to save them.
But for Lu Chen, who controls Life Force.
Heh heh, 1 point of Life Force is enough to save more than a dozen of them.
Tonight's Life Force expenditure will be paid by Young Master Lei.
Heh heh.
The remaining 3665 points will be accepted without politeness.
Pale green light bloomed from his fingertips.
Splitting into more than a dozen.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!
The pale green light spots sank into their hearts.
In the blink of an eye.
Someone immediately jumped up.
"Huh!"
"Wasn't I dying? How come I'm all better now?"
"Oh my, my old aching legs are nimble again, look, I can take one step, two steps, one step, two steps, without even stumbling!"
"My back doesn't hurt anymore, my family only has Doggy as a child, he's quite lonely, I'll go back and discuss with his mother about getting him a younger brother or sister."
The more than a dozen people showed off their healthy bodies twice, then all looked at each other.
Then.
They faced Ning Xiwei and knelt down.
"Thank you, Lord Skeleton, thank you, Lord Ning!"
"What are you doing, get up, hurry and get up."
Ning Xiwei helped one up, and another knelt down.
She helped that one up, and this one knelt down again.
"Oh dear, if you don't get up, I'm going to get angry!"
Ning Xiwei deliberately put on a stern face.
"Hahaha, everyone, stop teasing the Little Girl!"
"Get up, all of you get up, look how anxious the Little Girl is."
"Exactly, Lord Ning, don't worry, our old aching legs are all better, kneeling to you is just a way to stretch our muscles and bones."
"Look, we can even kowtow to you and Lord Skeleton."
"Come on, let's go, all kowtow."
Bang bang bang!
They kowtowed as they said they would.
Before Ning Xiwei could react.
These people, one after another, nimbly got up, smiling as they looked at Ning Xiwei and Little Skeleton.
Their faces were smiling.
But deep in their eyes, there was profound respect!
"Let's go, time to go home, this old man will go back and erect statues for Lord Ning and Lord Skeleton, and worship them morning and night!"
"Heh heh, I'll worship them morning, noon, and night!"
"I'll even get up in the middle of the night to worship, I'll worship ten times a day!"
...
"We don't have much strength, but if anyone dares to gossip behind Lord Ning and Lord Skeleton's backs, I'll curse their ancestors for eighteen generations!"
"Exactly, going against Lord Ning and Lord Skeleton is going against me, Wang Mazi!"
"Let's go, let's go, you've made Lord Ning anxious."
"Heh heh."
The uncles and aunties left in groups.
Then they walked into the crowd of commoners in the distance, embracing their children, husbands, and wives tightly, enjoying their survival after the disaster.
A moment later.
From the crowd of commoners, a unified shout came:
"Thank you, Lord Ning!"
"Thank you, Lord Skeleton!"
The sound wave was like rolling thunder, exploding within Chiyang City, which was enveloped by a light membrane.
Countless gazes turned their way.
They... what kind of scene are they causing!
Everyone is looking now.
"Oh dear!"
Ning Xiwei clenched her small fists and couldn't help but stomp her foot.
"Xiwei, they all really like you."
Sun Feifei met those grateful gazes directed at Ning Xiwei, feeling an indescribable shock in her heart.
"They don't just like you, they also respect you greatly."
"In our Chiyang City, your prestige is probably even higher than the City Lord's!"
"No way, Feifei, don't talk nonsense."
At this moment.
Ning Xiwei felt delighted in her heart.
Since Lu Chen appeared.
In just one day.
Her life had been turned upside down.
Giving her the ability to repay those who had once given her warmth.
She was no longer alone either.
The only regret.
Was that Lu Chen couldn't speak.
How wonderful it would be if she could confide in him.
At this moment.
The frequency of Professionals coming from outside the city decreased.
And Professionals were successively stepping into the Bronze Gate.
"Huh, isn't that Lei Pengcheng? Why is he hanging on a hoe?"
"Shh, keep your voice down, just go in."
The Professionals no longer watched, also fearing that the Professionals who had already entered would snatch all the demigods secret treasure.
Thus, more and more Professionals swarmed in.
Soon.
Tens of thousands of Professionals left, and the entire plaza was left with only a few newly arrived Professionals.
They looked at Lei Pengcheng hanging on the hoe.
Without a word, they entered the Bronze Gate.
"Shall we go too?"
Sun Feifei suggested.
With Lu Chen around, she could at least get some benefits.
For example, after the trip to the Myriad Beast Paradise Secret Realm, her current wealth was even more than her dad's, who had been a principal for decades!
Heh heh.
Lu Chen glanced at her.
Parasite!
