Chapter 504: 504. The Completely Different Er Ya (1)

Time flew, and over a month had passed.

If not for the strong heartbeat of Lu Yao they could sense every day, the girls almost couldn’t help themselves from rushing in to check on him.

Yu Yanmei consoled everyone, “Breaking through the No-Leak Realm is just like this, waiting for an opportunity when you can control all the Aperture Points in one go, just like a sky full of shining stars. Trust in Lu Xiaozi, he won’t have any problems.”

Only then did the girls’ expressions slightly soften.

But after they left, Yu Yanmei herself came to the outside of the quiet room where Lu Yao was closing up and sat down cross-legged to wait patiently.

She devoted all her attention to her little man, constantly monitoring the changes within.

...

This way, should anything happen, she could rush in to support him at a moment’s notice.

This had been Yu Yanmei’s routine for the entire month.

A woman who usually appears cold and aloof, once moved, her heart lake can turn into a blazing flame.

~~~~~~~~~

While Lu Yao had been closed up for so long, various ghosts and spirits were also restless.

The previous phenomenon of rice falling from the sky had caused a nationwide crash in grain prices, causing untold numbers to suffer heavy losses.

Even though everyone knew opposing Lu Yao was extremely dangerous, cutting off someone’s wealth is even worse than killing their parents, and seeing one’s fortune drastically diminish forced them to risk the desperate move.

Recently, in the streets around Jiangdu, it was often seen that people wailed ostentatiously with a pair of donkey ears, drawing attention as they passed through the market.

If someone asked, they would claim, “It’s only after eating the Imperial Court’s rice that they grew a pair of animal ears.”

As the public was astonished, all sorts of tabloids and local newspapers immediately followed up, reporting the incident widely.

Thus around Jiangdu, a rumor spread—the rice given by the Empire was transformed by the demon Lu using witchcraft, and eating it would turn people into beasts.

Jiangdu is an important hub on the Grand Canal, a north-south traffic nexus, and also a distribution center for official grain.

Such despicable tactics were obviously aiming to slander the official grain.

Li Pei immediately ordered a thorough investigation!

The newly reformed “Imperial Fist” legion, which had just been established, dispatched a company of Military Soldiers down the Grand Canal to the south!

~~~~~~~~~~

Looking across the whole world, Jiangdu was also one of the bustling cities that counted.

Merchants gathered, shops stood in great numbers, all kinds of Green Pavilions could be described as a human paradise, and it was a place where countless heroes converged.

However, today, all those countless heroes were following behind the Prefectural Governor of Jiangdu, waiting obediently at the “Jiangdu Port” pier.

This setup made it clear that they were awaiting a high-ranking figure, while the surrounding boatmen and laborers were indifferent, busying themselves with their livelihoods.

Recently, official grain-carrying boats frequently traveled south, and the river traffic was much busier than usual, making for good business.

The large welcoming crowd on the shore awaited patiently, with Prefectural Governor Yang Hao showing a rather unpleasant face.

The crowd around him felt similarly, with some continuously cursing under their breath, “Who the hell is trying to frame us!”

Before long, someone shouted, “They’re here!”

A steamship billowing black smoke slowly approached, flying a red flag with a Golden Dragon, indicating it was an official vessel.

As the steamship docked and dropped its anchor, first to disembark were 80 soldiers carrying kar98 rifles, all from the Bone Tempering Realm, belonging to the “Auxiliary Army for Commoners.”

Following them were two 2.5-meter-tall Mechas, stepping heavily off the ship, with 30 soldiers in Battle Armor trailing behind.

This was the force of a full company, and after disembarking, they lined up on both sides of the road, leaving space for the last and most important figure to come down.

The shore crowd craned their necks with anticipation, only to see a stunningly pretty young girl alight last.

Her skin was fair and luminous, and she had the poise of a fresh flower showered with morning dew—it was none other than Su Immortal!

At this moment, her beautiful melon seed face was covered in frost, evidently in a bad mood.

Seeing the reports in the newspaper, she was infuriated that someone dared to defame her martial uncle with such despicable tactics.

It just so happened that several elders were unwilling to be far from their martial uncle, so Liao Ya took the initiative to handle the matter.

This was also a good experience, and Liao Ya agreed to let her take charge.

The welcoming party on the shore saw a young girl descend, and showed no surprise; they had already received the news.

Prefectural Governor Yang stepped forward and bowed deeply, his words tinged with urgency,

“Su Immortal, this is a complete disaster! This matter has absolutely nothing to do with us in Jiangdu!”

The representatives of Jiangdu’s powerful families and major sects hastily echoed, “We ask the Immortal to discern the truth!”

As soon as the incident occurred, everyone in Jiangdu was scared out of their wits. It had not been long since the story of a real lord’s woman descending from the sky on a Spiritual Sparrowhawk to eradicate a household!

The so-called “rabbits don’t eat the grass by their burrows,” and they really hadn’t done this.

Su Immortal coldly said, “I will investigate this matter until the truth comes to light. The rest of you, disperse.”

Present were several Blood-Exchange Realm individuals, but the young girl was quite blunt in her speech.

Nobody felt anything amiss, and Prefectural Governor Yang even wore a sycophantic smile, “Then I will accompany the Immortal and the Military Soldiers to settle in the city.”

Su Immortal’s lips curled slightly, “To the city? Then I’ll trouble you for that.”

~~~~~~~~~

The Mecha Warriors of the “Imperial Fist” made their cumbersome way forward, clearing the path.

Many citizens of Jiangdu were seeing this for the first time and stood by the road, marveling in amazement.

But as the 2.5-meter tall behemoths of steel thundered by close to them, they trembled with fear, retreating continuously.

A certain man in the shadows stealthily appraised Su Immortal, initially merely noting the girl’s extraordinary beauty and talent.

But when he saw the oddly shaped Lake Sword on her back, his Martial Intuition and Spirit Refinement Perception immediately sounded frenzied alarms.

Everyone exclaimed in awe that this must be a formidable gift bestowed by a real lord!

By now, the procession had entered Jiangdu and was making its way to the Prefectural Yamen.

Suddenly, Su Immortal raised her hand, and the warriors of the “Imperial Fist” immediately halted in unison.

Within a few seconds, four squads of soldiers, each led by five Military Soldiers clad in Battle Armor, sprinted off in four different directions!

The rumbling commotion caused the surrounding citizens to scatter in panic, while Prefectural Governor Yang looked on in bafflement, “Su Immortal, what is this about…?”

Su Immortal answered, “Prefectural Governor, rest assured, we came prepared.”

After a moment of reflection, Prefectural Governor Yang realized— the young girl must have already received intelligence, using his welcome as a cover to command troops after entering the city!

Fearing entanglement, he hastily said, “I have 800 marksmen at my disposal, ready for the Immortal to command!”

“Then please ensure the civilians around are dispersed to avoid accidental injury.”

“Ah? Around?”

At this moment, they were just passing by the press office named “Shuofeng Monthly,” which had published many sarcastic reports about Lu Yao not so long ago.

With a wave of Su Immortal’s hand, the remaining soldiers immediately surrounded the place, cocking their guns and loading them.

A muffled voice came from one of the Mechas, “Su Immortal, old Zhu Beneng here will storm in through the front door!”

This man was none other than Zhu Beneng, the eldest of the “Baihe Gully Trio.” Because of his Spirit Refinement Firmness, coupled with his solid foundation, he was able to command a Mecha despite being in the Marrow-Cleansing Realm! He also served as a company commander.

The newspaper office in front of them was a standalone three-story building, decorated to resemble a foreign consulate in style, clearly no expense spared.

Su Immortal’s face bore none of the loveliness she had at home, she commanded coldly:

“The situation here is not simple; rashly entering might lead to casualties. Begin with a round of suppressive fire!”

The soldiers in Battle Armor and the Mecha troops, upon receiving the order, immediately turned their .50 caliber machine guns and Fire God Cannons towards the building and pulled the trigger!
