Do not engage in underworld operations in the human world!

Jiang Lu was carried in.

There was no way. His ankle was already cracked by his step, and then he kicked the door, breaking it directly. At this point, there was no point in supporting him, and he couldn't walk without someone to carry him.

This naturally attracted Hong Yi's attention.

"Oh my God, what happened to you?"

"I was accidentally injured when I was doing something heroic." Although he felt a little guilty, Jiang Lu still explained.

Hong Yi immediately came to Jiang Lu, who was lying on the sofa, with a distressed look on her face, and helped him treat his injuries. She looked so heartbroken, as if she was injured herself.

The performer took a deep breath at this and said, "Why isn't he losing control yet?"

The sickle said nothing.

Not betraying the Exorcist was the creed he had always adhered to, but in the face of his conscience, he couldn't help but hesitate.

Jin Yao stood in front of Jiang Lu without knowing when, frowned and asked: "Are you a brave person who can do what is right?"

"You doubt me?" Jiang Lu said angrily, "You are eliminated!"

Jin Yao panicked: "That's not what I meant."

"Then what are you saying?" Jiang Lu fluttered and slapped the sofa. "Let's take a step back. Even if I didn't do anything heroic, when I got hurt, the first thing you thought about was not how to care for me, but why I got hurt. How can I trust myself to you like this?"

"I" Jin Yao felt a little aggrieved: "So, if you say so, I have just established my foundation, shouldn't you also care about me?"

"Are you kidding me? You're a woman, are you competing with me, a man?"

Jiang Lu waved his hands around, not knowing what he was pointing at:
"None of my buddies' girlfriends are like you, who always ask for praise and rewards for doing something. How does that make you stand out? You're the only one working hard, and no one else is working hard, right?
Didn’t I never tell you about the anger I was enduring outside every day, but just silently digested it myself?
And I want to remind you, don't always think that you are so patient, and then put pressure on me and pua me in the name of sharing joy, trying to make me feel that I am marrying above my station by being with you now.

I'm telling you I've seen this a lot, I don't buy it, okay?"

Although Jin Yao had no such idea at all, she was still speechless by this series of moves and stood there at a loss as to what to do.

Hong Yi was also stunned, but after careful reflection, she found that she did not meet the characteristics of a bad woman as Jiang Lu described, so she put her mind at ease and continued to help Jiang Lu fix his twisted bones with great joy.

Scythe quietly asked the performer: "Did he lose control and say what was in his heart?"

"I don't know." The performer shook his head: "But I feel a strange chill in my crotch."

Yes, Jiang Lu's emotions are really too stable. No matter how many things he has in his heart, he chooses to bear them alone and then speaks silently. Such a boy is not cherished! Who wouldn't feel Ding Han after seeing this?

"So how about building the foundation?" After having fun, Jiang Lu asked about the business.

The topic changed so quickly and the emotions shifted so naturally that it can only be said that he started from 0 frames and entered the role in one second. Jiang Lu's ease and control like a veteran actor caught Jin Yao off guard.

"what?"

"Building the foundation, how is building the foundation?" Jiang Lu pouted: "Why? Are you pretending not to hear me now? It's like this now. I don't dare to think about how coldly you will look at me when I lie in bed and want to drink a glass of water."

"I don't"

The unprecedented sense of oppression and the deep sense of injustice in Jin Yao's heart made her dare not say anything harsh. She was afraid that Jiang Lu would say something terrible again. She could only plead:
"Could you please stop distorting and demonizing me like this?"

Perhaps out of pity for Jin Yao, Hong Yi reminded her, "It's possible that he lost control. He didn't really mean to say that."

“But even knowing this, I still feel bad.” Jin Yao had never suffered such an injustice before, and tears were about to overflow from her eyes.

Seeing this, Jiang Lu said to himself, "As expected."

No matter what excessive words they say or what excessive things they do, they will subconsciously regard this as an [absolutely real] loss of control and will not blame themselves, because in their eyes, they are also victims.

"Okay, then I won't eliminate you this time, and I won't do it again next time." Although Jiang Lu was very happy about the result of the verification, he still looked like a little fairy boy on the surface: "Just tell me about your foundation building."

"Building the foundation."

Jin Yao thought about it, and said in a puzzled tone:

“Although it took longer than I expected, the process went smoothly, except for a strange thing that happened when I was building my foundation.

I felt as if my consciousness had briefly merged with the will of Heaven. For some unknown reason, the will of Heaven actually tried to destroy my foundation with thunder and lightning. From beginning to end, I could only be a bystander, looking down at everything that was happening from above, but unable to intervene.

But fortunately, my foundation was solid enough and I managed to get through it in the end.

I guess, maybe it's because my foundation is too strange, so when I was building the foundation, even my will was constantly being polished, which is why I had such an illusion. "

Hong Yi did not show any surprise at this description, because she had been guarding Jin Yao in this room and had no idea what was happening outside. Neither the initial earthquake nor the subsequent natural disaster seemed to have any effect on the two people in the room.

But the other three were a little surprised.

Even Jin Yao herself did not realize that those things really happened, and had no clue about it?
In other words, even if the heavenly calamity was caused by her, it was not under her conscious control.

This is strange.

Even Jiang Lu had never heard of such a thing, let alone the other two.

After some thought, Jiang Lu decided to tell Jin Yao the truth.

“Is there a possibility that those were not hallucinations, but really happened?”

"Did it really happen? What does that mean?" Jin Yao was confused.

"I suggest you go out and take a look."

Jin Yao and Hong Yi looked at each other, then pushed the door open doubtfully and walked out of the room.

Jiang Lu also reminded them to close the door.

He has dealt with those guys from the Law Enforcement Bureau, but he cannot rule out the possibility that people from Sanqing Temple will find this place. He does not have such strong connections in Sanqing Temple. If someone who knows the business really sees the clues, it might cause some trouble.

Not long after, the two girls returned to the room in shock.

"How could this happen?" Jin Yao muttered to herself in disbelief.

When they walked out of the room, they not only saw the half-collapsed hotel, but also saw devastation all over the ground. These scenes were exactly the same as the sandbox-like toy that Jin Yao saw in the sky that was destroyed by thunder.

She also finally realized that her foundation building seemed to have brought irreversible damage to Nanjiang City.

"No one died, right?" Jin Yao asked immediately after coming to her senses.

"No." Scythe replied, "The Law Enforcement Bureau immediately counted and announced the casualties. Although there were a few serious injuries, they were all powerful monks who relied on their cultivation to block the thunder tribulation. It seems that there were no civilian casualties, only some property losses."

"That's good." Jin Yao felt a little better after learning that no one died because of her.

"But," Hong Yi asked weakly, "the damage to the houses and various facilities is no small matter."

"This..." Jin Yao was speechless, and her expression suddenly became somewhat self-blaming and sad.

"That doesn't matter." Jiang Lu was very open-minded and comforted him, "Let Kunlun Mountain pay for it. That person has a big family and a lot of wealth, so it won't be difficult for her to rebuild Nanjiang City. But the people who lived here before that will have to make do with what they have."

As he spoke, Jiang Lu couldn't help but sigh, "This is why cultivators are not allowed to undergo tribulation in densely populated areas. Look how much trouble this has caused for everyone."

"I"

Obviously, although Jiang Lu's words had some comforting effect, they were not very useful. Instead of cheering Jin Yao up, they made her fall into deeper guilt. "I don't know why this happened."

Looking at the guilty Jin Yao, Jiang Lu asked with a smile: "Before you learned about this, were you still feeling secretly happy because you had built a foundation that even you thought was unparalleled in the world?"

Jin Yao lowered her head silently, it was obvious that Jiang Lu had hit the nail on the head.

"You are a little different from her." Jiang Lu said suddenly.

"What?" Jin Yao raised her head blankly.

"In my impression, she is a person who will not be sad because of such trivial matters."

Jiang Lu said slowly:
"Not to mention the loss of property, even if someone really died because of her, as long as she gained something, she would not care. She even disagreed with the evil cultivators in ancient times who sacrificed millions of people to refine their cultivation. She did not reject it, but could understand it.

You know, many people who have become immortals look at mortals in the same way that humans look at monkeys, so I am not surprised that she has such thoughts.

But the past is the past, and the present is the present, but now I have a different feeling.

What I want to tell you is that since you have different opinions and feelings from her on the same thing, I think you can definitely do something that she can't do.

Work hard. "

Just as Jiang Lu said, in his impression, the Queen Mother of the West was not someone who would have emotional changes because of the life or death of some ants or the collapse of an anthill.

Her height determines her vision. Perhaps in her eyes, ordinary immortals are not worthy of her attention. Only those immortals who are famous in the fairy world can catch her eye.

This is the case for someone who represents the highest position among gods and immortals, so there is no need to say more about those who are inferior in character and vision to her.

In the past, Jiang Lu would have just assumed that after becoming an immortal, the world would be unkind and treat all things as straw dogs. But now, seeing that Jin Yao, whose way of thinking was exactly the same as that of the Queen Mother of the West, was so deeply touched by the disaster she had caused, he began to have doubts again.

This made Jiang Lu think deeply.

Shouldn't the Three Corpse Spirits be stumbling blocks on the road to becoming an immortal, the bad side of human nature?

When beheading the three corpses, are you beheading evil desires or beheading human nature?

Listening to Jiang Lu's ambiguous encouragement, Jin Yao seemed to understand something, but it was not clear. It seemed that there was always a thin film between her and enlightenment, which she could not break no matter what she did.

As outsiders, Scythe and the performer had no idea who the person Jiang Lu was talking about, but they had more mysteries about Jiang Lu in their hearts.

They always felt that Jiang Lu always seemed to know something they didn't know.

They thought they had to find a chance to ask him, but at this moment they all tacitly chose to remain silent and be a bystander.

As for Hong Yi's angle, it's more tricky.

Although she felt a slight sense of crisis, she was still genuinely happy for Jin Yao.

It seems that he has already regarded you as a completely different individual from the Queen Mother of the West, rather than a substitute. That's great.
"Anyway, let's clean up the things in the room now. These things can't be seen by anyone with ulterior motives."

Jiang Lu said to the others, "We originally planned to leave at night, but given the current situation, things could change if we delay. We'd better leave Nanjiang City as soon as possible. Let's set off now."

"it is good."

Several people nodded and started to tidy up everything in the room.

Hong Yi wiped out all traces of the foundation-building formation, while Jin Yao was responsible for sorting and packing the remaining herbs, which were then collected by the sickle and the performers. Jiang Lu was unable to move, so he could only lie on the sofa and watch them busy themselves.

After finishing all the finishing work, Scythe asked, "Do you still want to ride on your guardian spirit beast?"

"Guardian spirit beast?" Jiang Lu looked puzzled.

"That's it, the magical beast that can grow very large and brought us here from Mount Gaishi." the performer suggested.

"Oh shit!"

Jiang Lu slapped his forehead and anxiously struggled to sit up from the sofa:
"Yeah, where's my cat?! I brought the cat with me! Where did you leave it?"

"What do you mean we threw it away for you? Shouldn't you take care of it yourself?" The two were speechless.

"No, she's still so young and she was alone when the earthquake happened just now. My E'E won't do that."

Jiang Lu was suddenly at a loss and fell off the sofa to the ground.

"You asked me to take care of her last night." Jin Yao said to Jiang Lu.

Jiang Lu raised his head in despair: "What about her cat?"

"After feeding it yesterday, it went to sleep. Then I came to see you after taking a shower. After I went back, I fell asleep. I forgot about it when I woke up this morning. Now..." Jin Yao recalled the schedule, and then said uncertainly: "It should be in my room."

"Look! Help me up and look!"

The few of them did not dare to delay. After confirming that there were no other traces in the room, they quickly moved towards Jin Yao's room.

When Jiang Lu saw the ruins, he felt like he was struck by lightning.

Apart from the house number on the ground, it's hard to tell that this was originally a place where people lived.

"The damage here is quite serious," the performer muttered.

The next moment, Jiang Lu fell to his knees and slammed his hands on the ground: "No!!!"

Jiang Lu's shouts penetrated the ruins and pierced the eardrums of Huang Xiu'e who was sleeping under the ruins.

She pushed away the load-bearing wall that was pressing on her with one hand, and looked at the world in confusion, which was completely different from the world before she closed her eyes.

"Meow?"

The soft but clear sound of a cat's meow reached everyone's ears.

Scythe immediately patted Jiang Lu's shoulder, who was crying, and said, "There it is!"

Jin Yao, who had caused such a big mess and felt even more guilty for having lost Jiang Lu's cat, breathed a sigh of relief when she saw this.

Hong Yi looked at Huang Xiu'e's furry head and couldn't help feeling pity for her, and she revealed a smile full of motherly love.

Although he is infertile, seeing how much he dotes on this kitten and cherishes it, as his wife, I must love this little guy well. In this way, he will definitely love me more, right?

Hong Yi thought so.

But strangely, there was no joy of regaining what had been lost on Jiang Lu's face.

I just felt a little relieved from my tears, and at this critical moment when I was crying and reminiscing about the time we lived together, you actually came out on your own?

So should I continue crying or what?

It's so embarrassing.

So Jiang Lu stood up calmly, patted his knees, limped away, and said without looking back: "Ah, she is not my cat. My cat is dead."

Jin Yao:?
Hong Yi’s smile suddenly stopped during the fantasy moment:?
The sickle, who was just happy and relieved for Jiang Lu, became expressionless:?
The performer commented fairly: "You are not human anymore." (End of this chapter)
