Chapter 369: City God
The facts were just as Li Yuan expected.
Gradually, another group of people came, under the pretext of paying a visit to the mountain, to test Li Yuan's attitude.
And Li Yuan still does what he is good at.
Accepting gifts, making big promises, performing tea art, and being hypocritical.
A lot of people were angry and ran away.
Among them, some people tried to attack Li Yuan secretly, but they were all blocked.
Those people had dark faces and gritted their teeth as they helped Li Yuan drive back the attacker from behind.
They have given the valuable gifts and said polite words, but they still want to use Li Yuan to get in touch with the underworld!
How can you let someone get disabled so easily?
In response, Li Yuan smiled even more happily.
As long as there is someone to help him, it is worth it even if the fishing process is longer.
When these things gradually settled down, good news came from the border area of Anshan.
The practitioners who had been well prepared secretly discovered traces of demons after repeated inspections.
He set up a large array to confuse demons. He first fought with the demons in a small group to show them that they were weak, and then slowly lured them in.
The demons were slowly gathered together.
As a result, those bloodthirsty demons thought that the Anshan practitioners were not very skilled and were afraid of them, so they risked attacking the people in the marginal areas.
He planned to use the corpses of the people to anger Li Yuan.
Unexpectedly, he stepped into the demon formation.
Then, more than ten practitioners used their own methods to fight against the demons.
At first, those demons relied on their powerful strength and were not afraid at all.
Until those dozen practitioners called over the rest of the practitioners to help.
Use the demon-bewitching formation to besiege and consume the demons.
The demons were stunned and furious:
"One on one, come and fight me if you dare! Don't you human cultivators love one on one the most?"
In the Bewitching Demon Formation, the goat-bearded man was shrouded in the smoke of the formation and could not help but sneer:
"Single challenge?"
"I have already set up the formation, who would challenge you in a one-on-one duel?"
"Unity is the virtue of our human race!"
"Brothers, kill them!"
The goat-bearded man shouted loudly, used the formation to restrain the monsters, and cast spells remotely.
The demons were furious, but their senses were obscured by the demon-bewitching formation and they couldn't see even a single person.
In the end, the big demon hidden among them had to reveal its breath and break the formation by force.
However, faced with demons whose strength far exceeded their own, the practitioners did not try to show off their bravery.
"Master Biao, help me~~~!"
"The monster is at the door!!"
A practitioner with a loud voice shouted.
And then......
A strong wind blew up from the sky, and a murderous aura filled the earth.
A huge black claw descended from the sky and forcibly abducted the big demon.
"Master Biao's magical powers are becoming more and more exquisite."
The goateed man sighed.
Beside them, other practitioners also nodded:
"The ancients said that clouds are dragons, winds are tigers, and Lord Biao is proficient in the magical power of wind. By analogy, he can also use space magic with ease."
Another person who specialized in supernatural powers shook his head:
"Not only that. The Five Elements, Yin and Yang, Wind and Thunder, everything can be studied towards the study of space magic. It's just a matter of direction."
"The path of the great way always has mysterious connections."
The practitioners thought about it carefully and agreed: "Daoyou, what you said makes sense."
As they chatted, they activated the formation and took serious action to kill the demons.
After the task was completed, they cautiously left half of the people to continue patrolling, and then returned to the mountain to report.
Li Yuan was in the mountains, so he naturally saw their actions and was quite satisfied.
"You are doing a great job, not being too arrogant or impatient, and being able to relax and work hard at the right time."
Those demons came specifically to take revenge on Li Yuan.
But before they could even cause chaos among the people of Anyue, these practitioners joined forces and led the way.
After trapping the demon, he did not shy away from claiming credit for his contribution and openly invited his fellow Taoists to come and help.
Otherwise, the demons will have the chance to escape and endanger the people.
Li Yuan really appreciated this cautious and thoughtful spirit.
He bestowed some spiritual objects as rewards to the practitioners, some of which were treasures he had just collected not long ago.
The practitioners were very happy and bowed respectfully, expressing their gratitude to Li Yuan for his teachings and gifts.
He also brought those spiritual objects down the mountain and discussed their distribution with his colleagues who were still patrolling.
After temporarily solving these problems, Li Yuan finally had some time.
Turn your attention to Anyue’s capital.
Still in a seriously injured state, he moved and left the top of the mountain.
"Gu Jian, sorry for the long wait."
Li Yuan appeared somewhere in the city with a smile on his face and soft words.
In a corner of the bustling capital, Gu Jian, in soul form, is quietly watching the world.
There seems to be nostalgia and some complexity in his eyes.
Hearing Li Yuan's voice, he turned around and bowed quickly.
"I have met the God of Anshan Mountain."
Gu Jian hesitated for a moment, and followed the etiquette of the Heavenly Court, neither humble nor arrogant, speaking respectfully but also trying to be calm.
Li Yuan praised with his eyes:
"good."
"From now on, you will be the first City God of the underworld in this world, and you will be an official of the same generation as the immortals and gods in the human world."
"If you are still as awed and reserved as before, I will worry whether you are capable of doing this."
Gu Jian opened his mouth slightly: "Actually, I..."
Li Yuan waved his hand: "I know that you still respect me in your heart and don't want to be so distant."
"But the Earth Mother is standing behind you, so you must not be frivolous, lest you bring shame upon her. And you are an official, so your attitude should be based on your duty and official duties."
"Yes."
Gu Jian smiled slightly.
As long as the Mountain God understands his true meaning, he won't have to worry.
"This is the Anshan Mountain God..."
During the conversation, Gu Jian saw the horrific crack on Li Yuan's waist and couldn't help but worry.
Li Yuan waved his hand: "It's okay, just seriously injured, I won't die."
Gu Jian was slightly embarrassed, but after thinking about it, he didn't say anything.
So as to avoid making inappropriate remarks and disrupting the affairs of the mountain god.
The two walked in the city.
The common people passing by were all unaware of it.
After chatting for a while, Li Yuan asked, "Do you have a government residence?"
Gu Jian smiled slowly, "The Earth Mother is kind and generous. She has given me the City God's Mansion. As long as I invoke the divine power, I can go to the mansion to work."
"If I have the honor, please invite the Anshan Mountain God into the palace for a talk."
Gu Jian waved his hand, and a civilian door in the city flickered and turned into a gate leading to the City God's Palace in the underworld.
However, it is controlled by the City God's mind and will not allow innocent people to get lost in it.
The two of them passed through the Yin Gate and instantly arrived at another space.
This place also looks like Anyue capital, and the street scenes are roughly the same.
But it was so dark and gloomy that no living people could be seen.
Moreover, many places are inaccessible and are just illusions of scenery.
Only in the center, there stands a gloomy and sinister City God's Palace.
It is currently empty, with only Gu Jian alone.
"The Queen Mother thought of me as the first City God and granted me the quota of one hundred little ghosts under my command."
"In the future, if anyone in the city does evil, he will die."
"I will capture his soul and ask him to run errands for me. I will use him for a few years, and then I will let him go to reincarnation."
Gu Jian looked at the empty and gloomy City God's Mansion, and it was obvious that he had already made plans for the future.
After Li Yuan took a tour, he gained some understanding of this place of the underworld city god.
This City God's Palace is where the great laws of the universe are poured into the duties of the City God by the Earth Mother with her immense magical powers.
Whenever there is a City God in office in a city on earth, a City God's Palace will automatically be generated between heaven and earth for him to work.
After walking around the City God's Mansion, Li Yuan chuckled:
"You are not only the ancestral city god of this world, but also serve in the capital of the country."
"I think he should be called the City God."
Li Yuan stood in the City God's Palace and bowed deeply to the ground, as if he was talking to someone.
In a distant place, there is a small green courtyard.
Mother Earth was playing chess with Lord Chaos. She seemed to have heard something and nodded slightly.
And under the Nine Netherworld.
The Hades also heard it.
"Jiabei Jiabei, the City God of a country's capital should indeed be different from ordinary City Gods."
The Hades waved his hand slightly, and a mysterious force instantly crossed the infinite space and blessed Gu Jian.
Suddenly, several bright gold threads appeared on the collar and sleeves of Gu Jian's simple black City God official uniform.
Outline the exquisite texture.
It looks a bit more noble.
