Though Verdant Green Maiden was not yet truly one of the Immortals in heaven, she was immune to heat and cold. How could she possibly catch a chill?
Even missing one soul and one wraith, that was still impossible!
"How strange..."
Verdant Green Maiden rubbed her nose as well and muttered, "Someone must be talking about me behind my back! Mm, it has to be that Stinky Monkey! He must be unhappy that I pinned him down there and is badmouthing me behind my back! Honestly... I'll go make trouble for him next time!"
"Uh..."
Saro blinked.
Make trouble?
Was that something an Immortal should say?
Did this person... truly count as a Bodhisattva?
Just as she was thinking this, Guan County's county seat came into view ahead. Verdant Green Maiden gazed into the distance at Guan County, deeply moved.
"Mm! Not bad. It seems they've done very well here!"
The last time she had come to Guan County was when Dujiangyan had flooded. Back then, the Book of Fate had caused her trouble, and she had entrusted this place to Yang Jian and his wife, Bai Susu.
Now, it seemed the two of them had done a fine job! The place looked even more prosperous than before, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment.
At her side, Saro looked out at distant Dujiangyan and said, "The waterworks here are quite good!"
"Of course!"
Verdant Green Maiden smiled.
"The wisdom of people is boundless."
"The wisdom of people..."
Hearing that, Saro murmured it to herself but said nothing more.
The two arrived beside Dujiangyan.
Beside Dujiangyan stood a temple. Its plaque bore the words: Temple of the Illustrious Sage True Lord Erlang! It was imposing and grand, with many homes surrounding it. Countless people inside and outside
