The Rise of the Star Panda

"Zhuang Pu's cultivation seems to be the same as mine?" Tang Zhening asked curiously: "I thought that the envoys who could obtain the puppet body would be the strongest ones."

"What are you thinking about?" Chu Jiwei couldn't help but laugh, "The cost of making a puppet body is very high, especially a puppet body that can run in with the commander and grow with him. With my financial resources, I can only buy a few that can suit the needs of the emperor." Equipped with the puppet body of an envoy from the realm of gods. At the powerful level... I will have to bankrupt my fortune."

so expensive?
Tang Zhening was surprised.

After that, she stopped asking about the envoy. Although she was actually very curious about those envoys, she always felt that they, like Lu Zhanting, were entities that Chu Jiwei could only talk about if he wanted to. If he didn't tell her, she wouldn't ask.

On the day they arrived in Tongliat, they encountered a heavy rain.

Although the natural climate has very little impact on practitioners, it is true that people still instinctively like sunny days.

Tang Zhening was affected and felt a little wilted.

"There don't seem to be many tourists in Tongliat. Can we find a hotel?" Tang Zhening searched hard with his eyes through the huge rain curtain.

"Even if there are no interstellar tourists, there are always tourists locally." Yin Xian said.

However, probably because there are no interstellar passengers, the port of Tongliat is very deserted. Maybe when the weather is nice, there may be vendors who come to solicit customers, but this time, not even a single person was seen.

"The layout of Tongliat is so strange." Yin Xian said not far away.

Tang Zhening also nodded. Indeed, in the impression that areas such as ports, airports, and train stations are often surrounded by various hotels and restaurants, and some commercial streets, unlike here, it turns out to be a residential area.

Moreover, this residential area is somewhat shabby. Even if it is not a slum, it is probably only ordinary people living there.

"Is someone watching us?" Tang Zhening asked in a low voice while walking on the narrow road, looking at the houses on both sides.

It was impossible to see the people inside from the outside, but she didn't know if it was an illusion, but she always felt that there were many pairs of eyes looking at them.

"It's normal." But it was Uncle Xiao who said, "Such a civilization is usually very exclusive." His voice was also very soft.

This road was very long, and it was very quiet all the way. Just when Tang Zhening thought that the silence would last until they walked out of this residential house, with a clang, a woman fell out of the house dozens of meters away. Smashed to the ground.

A man walked out of the swaying door, picked up the woman, and cursed with a ferocious face: "You stinky cousin, who gave you the courage to poison me!"

Poisoned?

Tang Zhening looked carefully and found that the man's face was a bit abnormally pale, and there was black blood at the corner of his mouth.

Looking at the woman again, she doesn't look much better. Half of her face is swollen, and you can see clear slap marks. Her bun is spread out, and a silver hairpin is inserted diagonally, as if it won't fall out. . She was being held by the collar by the man, and her face was a little pale because of the difficulty in breathing.

The two of them came out for a moment and were soaked in the rain.

"Do you still need someone to give me the courage?" Unexpectedly, the woman's voice was not weak. She raised her head and glared at the man and said: "Other men can earn three to five thousand star coins a month, but you are a loser who earns two thousand a month. A man who is incapable of making money has a bigger temper than anyone else. You can hit me even if you don’t let the two girls go. And my older man, he was so good when he was a child and he would love me and my two sisters. Now he is beaten. What have you taught me?"

"Like a man!" The man gasped loudly and shouted: "This is what a man should be like!" "Then you go to hell!" The woman's face suddenly became extremely calm, and a pair of scissors cut from her It was drawn out of the sleeve and stabbed hard into the man's chest.

——She stabbed very accurately, going straight to the heart.

Looking at the man who fell down in disbelief, Tang Zhening frowned. She was not sympathizing with this man, but...did she hear wrong just now?
Does this woman seem to be talking about you?
Besides this man, who else does she want to kill?

Tang Zhening already had some guesses in his mind, but he still couldn't be sure.

Just at this moment, someone else came out of the shaky door. They were two girls in their teens. They didn't speak, they just shed tears silently.

Through the rain curtain, the woman looked up and made sure that the group had no intention of meddling in other people's business. She gently patted the shoulders of her two daughters and walked into the house silently.

Soon, a cry belonging to a young child was heard in the house.

Tang Zhening opened his mouth, filled with disbelief.

That's her biological son.

She herself had raised a child, starting from a size that could be held in both hands. It took so much hard work and effort, but it was too late to hurt, so how could she let it go...

"Let's go." Yin Xian pulled her and said.

The group continued to move forward. When they passed by the pair of sisters, Tang Zhening glanced at them. They looked at them with extremely wary eyes, and the sadness from before had gone away.

She couldn't tell whether they couldn't bear it or whether they were sad about their mother killing their own brother.

It wasn't until he walked out of the alley that Tang Zhening truly felt that this civilized man... was indeed a bit scary.

Unexpectedly, after walking through such a dilapidated and old alleyway, what I saw was a bustling traffic.

"This is...Xiuzhefang City?" Tang Zhening could tell at a glance. Pedestrians passing by were not afraid of the rain pouring down above their heads, and the carriages were not ordinary carriages. Like the White Huxing, they were all flying stars, but because The local imperial order did not take off.

"There must be a hotel here. Let's go check it out. It would be even better if there is a cave." Yin Xian said.

The arrival of their group obviously attracted the attention of the local cultivators. The eyes that looked over were full of scrutiny and wariness. Probably because of Chu Jiwei's obvious power, no one dared to show any malice.

Under the eaves of a grocery store, an eleven or twelve-year-old girl was crouching there to hide from the rain. When she saw Tang Zhening and his group, her eyes lit up and she rushed into the rain without thinking.

Tang Zhening noticed the other party immediately. One is because this little girl obviously came for them, and the other is because... this little girl is an ordinary person, and in the blink of an eye she became extremely embarrassed under the heavy rain.

"Are these cultivators from outside? Do you need a guide? I can be your guide." The girl panted, her voice a little unclear due to the sound of rain, but it was still clear.

Tang Zhening noticed her bright and stubborn eyes for the first time, as well as the faint traces of star power emanating from her body.
