He, Kind? Innocent? Cowardly?
Ran Zirou still needs to put on an act in front of Zhu Min. By the time she finally rescues the person, he will probably be tortured beyond recognition.
Hearing Li Zi's words, even the system panicked. [Host, hurry and save her! Ran Zirou hasn't considered the child's situation at all; she only wants to control your Fifth Senior Sister.]
Fu Chaoqing infused his powerful Spiritual Power into the Spirit Artifact, and the longsword transformed into a streak of light that swept across the sky.
This woman is incredibly audacious! She actually dared to scheme against Fifth Junior Sister!
Gaizhou City.
This is a bustling trading center in the Tongjia Kingdom.
The streets were wide and bright, and the shops on both sides of the road were often frequented by well-dressed young men from wealthy families.
The tallest building is a restaurant, ornately decorated and magnificent.
At the entrance, several well-dressed, drunk men walked in and out, their arms around each other.
Just then, a horse-drawn carriage turned the corner and came towards them.
Passersby quickly moved aside.
A wealthy young master, waving a folding fan, muttered discontentedly.
"Who is this guy? He's so arrogant. Isn't this street off-limits to horses? Just the other day, the young master of the Zhao Household was arrested on the spot while riding by."
His companion quickly covered his mouth.
"Shh, keep your voice down. See that flag hanging on the carriage? That's the only son of the city lord of Gaizhou City. Anyone who dares to impound his carriage is asking for death!"
Upon hearing this, the rich young master turned pale with fright and quickly pulled his companion away along the street corner.
"Whoa!"
The horse neighed.
The carriage stopped in front of a clinic.
The civilians passing by the clinic fled in panic, not daring to linger for even a moment.
A short, rough-looking man lifted the curtain and got out of the carriage.
This was none other than Zou Tianlu, the son of the city lord.
He was ugly, with dark skin. Although he was dressed in gorgeous clothes, the brocade robes he wore only made him look more like a big black monkey.
The children nearby were so frightened by his appearance that they opened their mouths to cry loudly.
The child's mother quickly covered the child's mouth, fearing that the slightest sound from the child would lead to death.
When the patients at the clinic learned that Zou Tianlu had arrived, they were terrified and fled in droves.
Zou Tianlu walked straight into the clinic and approached the man who was taking a patient's pulse.
He looked at the man in the Wheelchair with great interest.
Chapter 38 Is he kind? naive? cowardly?
Although the man was thin, his face was exquisitely beautiful, androgynous, with fair skin, a slender body, and a delicate, almost frail appearance.
Noticing the unfriendly gaze, the man looked up to meet his eyes and said angrily, "Young Master Zou, you're disturbing my patient."
Zou Tianlu clicked his tongue and reached out to touch his cheek.
"She looks so pitiful."
Zhu Liang turned his face away, avoiding his touch, his expression one of disgust.
"Please leave, Young Master Zou. You are not welcome here."
Zou Tianlu chuckled and waved his hand, "Men, take him to my residence."
Zhu Liang was trembling with rage, and as the guards were about to approach, veins bulged on his forehead.
"Zou Tianlu! Do you know who my sister is? Treating me like this, aren't you afraid she'll kill your whole family when she gets back?"
Upon hearing this, Zou Tianlu's laughter became even more sinister.
"Your sister? Your sister who Immortal Cultivation? What is she? She's just a lackey of the Imperial Court. So what if she cultivates Immortal Cultivation? She's still wholeheartedly serving the royal family. Even if I really kidnap you this time, what can she do to me!"
As he spoke, Zou Tianlu stepped forward, grabbed Zhu Liang's hand, and gave it a hard squeeze.
"Tsk tsk, these little hands are even softer than those of the concubines in my courtyard. I wonder what it feels like to be with them elsewhere."
"Take away!"
Zhu Liang clung tightly to the Wheelchair, his face deathly pale and his eyes bloodshot.
"Zou Tianlu, how dare you treat me like this! My sister will never let you get away with this!"
He was frail and confined to Wheelchair, unable to move at all, so he could only try to sound tough by invoking his sister's name.
Zou Tianlu smiled sinisterly, "Although your sister Cultivation, she has a servile nature and is single-mindedly devoted to serving the Imperial Court. My uncle is a high-ranking official in the Imperial Court; with just a word from him, your sister wouldn't dare to lay a hand on me."
Zhu Liang's eyes were bloodshot as he stared intently at him.
How did you know my sister works for the Imperial Court?
Zou Tianlu lost his patience and ordered his men to take Zhu Liang away.
As the carriage drew closer, he closed his eyes in despair.
Suddenly, he saw a flash of sword light before his eyes, and his Wheelchair fell heavily to the ground.
Zhu Liang opened his eyes and saw three fairies gracefully landing in the sky.
All three possessed the appearance of Immortal, their bodies seemingly coated with a layer of golden light, inspiring a sense of admiration and respect.
The Mortal below prostrated themselves in worship.
Suddenly, a deafening sound rang in my ears.
"How dare you bully my junior sister's brother! You're asking for death!"
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Zou Tianlu's body was forcibly pulled into the air by an invisible force, his limbs outstretched.
He screamed in terror, "Immortal, I am the city lord's son! You can't treat me like this!"
"Help! Help me!"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Liang's eyes welled up with tears, and he struggled to get out of his Wheelchair and kneel down.
"Immortal, please calm your anger and do not kill indiscriminately. He is not worth your time."
Li Zi looked at the thin boy kneeling on the ground, then at the lewd man in mid-air, and secretly felt relieved.
Luckily we arrived early.
But when Zhu Liang told her not to kill indiscriminately, she felt a pang of regret.
