Controlling the Five Thunders and the Two Worlds

Chapter 85: Gardening Department Director Takes Office

It was rare to meet such a good person, so they sat down in Wang Yue's yard to rest.

"Aren't you from the government?" Wang Yue asked.

"We are not." Zhuo Qingyan shook her head. "But punishing evil and subduing demons is not something that only officials can do."

"That's right, that's right!" Wang Yue nodded repeatedly, "Two months ago, a wizard passed by and helped the Liu family in the south of the city get rid of the evil spirit hiding in their home, and then left."

"Oh?" Gu Zhao asked curiously, "Are there still good people in Changping Prefecture now?"

Zhuo Qingyan had a blank expression on her face, while Bai Ke yelled, "You can't just condemn a whole group of people. Aren't Sister Qingyan and I good people?"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Gu Zhao hurriedly bowed his hands to express his apology, "What I meant is that there are still people who are chivalrous and righteous."

In this world, the imperial court has the Xuanwei Divine Sect guarding one side, the Lingyuan Court patrolling the world, and the rest are local forces and various independent cultivators.

However, these local forces and various independent cultivators are both good and bad. The good ones include Bailing Mountain in Jiangyang Prefecture on the north bank of Wanling River, while the bad ones include Bi'ang Palace in Changping Prefecture. There is also the two-faced Jinfeng Sect, which appears to be bright and righteous on the surface but is actually debauched and evil in secret.

At this time, the Jinfeng Sect was respected in Changping Prefecture. If there were people in Changping Prefecture who were chivalrous and righteous, their biggest opponent would be the Jinfeng God King.

"That's not the case." Bai Ke shook his head. "In fact, as long as you don't provoke the Golden Wind Sect and don't preach in Changping Prefecture, the Golden Wind Sect won't care about you."

The embroiderer interrupted and said with a smile, "You can't go to Jinfengtang and absorb their incense either."

Bai Ke changed into a comfortable position in the embroiderer's arms and nodded, "Yes!"

Gu Zhao nodded. It was not that he didn't understand the logic, but he had been in this world for so long and had killed many monsters and demons, but he had only seen Bai Ke and Zhuo Qingyan without any evil spirit. Naturally, he subconsciously thought that there were basically no good people in Changping Mansion.

Of course, I met another Wang Yue today.

When Wang Yue heard several people discussing Jinfengtang, his expression changed, his eyes flickered, and he didn't dare to speak.

Seeing that she was hesitant to speak, Gu Zhao asked, "You know Jinfengtang, right?"

Wang Yue nodded, "I know."

"What do you think of Jinfengtang?" Gu Zhao asked.

Wang Yue thought about the conversation they had just had and asked cautiously, "Do you know what's going on in the private life of Jinfengtang?"

"You know that too?" Bai Ke asked curiously, "Don't you rarely go out?"

Wang Yue took two breaths and glanced at the orchid in the corner of the room. Seeing the orchid swaying its petals, he said softly, "The Fang and Li families next door are both followers of the Golden Wind Sect. Their daughters often went to the Golden Wind Hall to pray for blessings. Later, their bodies gradually weakened and they died not long after."

Gu Zhao snorted, "It seems that the Jinfengtang in Wuhe County is not a good person either."

"So I'm even more afraid to reveal myself." Wang Yue said with lingering fear, "I once saw the Road God of Jinfengtang cast a spell. It was very powerful!"

Several people laughed when they heard this. One of the Golden Wind Sect's goddesses had died at their hands, but the general still killed her in return.

However, Wang Yue's cultivation is indeed not strong, and Xiaolan can only release some poisonous gas, which is no problem against ordinary people or even martial arts masters, but it is not enough to deal with mages.

But speaking of this... Gu Zhao looked around, "Can you make flowers bloom in all four seasons?"

"The orchid takes root in the ground and can stimulate the growth of surrounding plants. It can also bloom flowers in winter, but I never let it bloom in winter. At most, I let some summer flowers bloom until autumn." Wang Yue explained.

"That's pretty good too." Gu Zhao said with a smile.

Zhuo Qingyan glanced at Gu Zhao, then asked Wang Yue, "Aunt, are you planning to continue living like this? The Golden Wind Hall isn't a good organization, and there must be demons and ghosts in the city. Your cultivation isn't high, and if you're discovered, you'll inevitably be in danger."

Wang Yue's heart was beating fast and she was in a panic because Zhuo Qingyan's words touched her heart.

When she first became one with Xiaolan and had gained some skills, she was very excited and wanted to find fellow practitioners to exchange ideas and make progress together.

Fortunately, she was careful and did not expose herself when she was completely in the dark. Then she saw a darkness that she had never seen in her entire life. She was so scared that she immediately hid back home and never mentioned the topic of finding like-minded people to communicate and exchange ideas again.

"I'll be careful." This was all Wang Yue could say in response.

Zhuo Qingyan shook her head and took Wang Yue's hand. "Aunt, since you don't have any relatives in Wuhe County, why don't you move to another place?"

Wang Yue understood Zhuo Qingyan's words, "You..."

"We are about to establish a sect in Changping Prefecture. Aunt Wang's skills are very suitable for decorating the sect gate. She is exactly the talent we need."

Gu Zhao gave Zhuo Qingyan a look of gratitude for her cooperation, and then invited her, "When you come to our place, Aunt Wang won't have to worry about safety, and you won't have to worry about anything anymore. You can keep the flowers blooming all year round."

Wang Yue looked at the few people, feeling a little scared but also a little excited. "I'm familiar with the neighbors around here... Where is your mountain gate?"

The embroiderer came over with an expectant look on her face and said crisply, "It's not far away. It's in Cuiluo Mountain, Xiuyue County, and only a hundred miles away from Wuhe County. If Aunt Wang misses home, she can come back anytime."

Wang Yue nodded in confusion. She knew Xiu Yue County and Cui Luo Mountain, but she didn't know that there was a powerful sect on Cui Luo Mountain that was dedicated to chivalry and justice.

But she didn't doubt it. After all, after she and Xiaolan became one, she just practiced on her own and never went out, let alone inquired about the gossip in the cultivation world. She knew that Jinfengtang was hypocritical only because the neighbor's daughter was in trouble.

Wang Yue looked at the few people. Since they had seen through him from the beginning, they were of course much more powerful than him.

Moreover, they came here to eliminate evil, so they are naturally not bad people. What's more, they have nothing worth scheming against.

At this moment, the orchid petals under the eaves bloomed and swayed in the wind, adding a touch of tenderness and beauty.

She was originally a mountain elf. Although her cultivation speed increased after she became one with Wang Yue, living in a small courtyard in the city was certainly no match for breathing fresh air in the mountains.

Wang Yue breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but smile. "I've actually been living in fear these past few years. If I could find a place where I could live a stable life, I would definitely be willing to do that."

The embroiderer nodded repeatedly, "It's very good here!"

Taoist Master Yansong looked at the flowers around him and couldn't help but stroke his beard and smile. If the flowers at the mountain gate bloomed all year round, it would really be a fairyland scene.

"Okay, then Aunt Wang will be the head of our garden department from now on." Gu Zhao clapped his hands to express his welcome, and the embroiderer immediately joined in the applause.

"In that case, Aunt Wang, besides the Golden Wind Hall, do you know of any other evildoers in the county?" Gu Zhao's eyes were blazing. "We came to Wuhe County this time to first clean up the demons and ghosts outside of the Golden Wind Hall."
