Dao Cheng Gui Xian

Chapter 99 Request to Punish the Tree Goddess

Li Wushou lay on the chair, eyes closed, resting.
Rescuing the priest was no easy task, and he had no choice but to think it through carefully!
I hope this civil official is really useful. I've put in so much effort, and if in the end this City God lineage is just a hopeless mess, then it would be a laughing stock.

If that really happens, don't blame me for going crazy!
Li Wushou was secretly calculating when Xiao Panshan in his arms felt a chill for no reason. Only then did he realize that Li Wushou's Yin power was a little too pure.
After taking a sip of tea, Li Wushou was thinking about other things. After this incident, regardless of success or failure, the City God Temple and the City Lord's side had completely broken off relations.

What follows is a fierce battle!
Zhu Sihai had been putting up with him for a long time, and he had been putting up with the other party for a long time too!
Thinking of this, Li Wushou suddenly opened his eyes, straightened up from the recliner, and called out to Feng Sishui outside the door, "Sishui, come in for a moment!"

"Yes, High Priest!"

Feng Sishui responded loudly, and then respectfully walked in.

After a brief conversation, Feng Sishui walked out of the house with a solemn expression.

Feng Sishui went straight to the incense hall, first placing a clay sculpture inside, and then turning around and lighting a stick of incense outside the hall.

The minor priests, who had been busy running around, were startled and immediately returned to the City God Temple to gather together.

The crowd's expressions were solemn. Having just experienced the destruction of the village, they all felt a sense of unease about this summons.

At the same time, all eyes in the Five Directions City turned to this place.

Zhu Sihai's face was solemn. He wanted to see what kind of trouble Li Wushou was up to this time!

The chanting in the meditation room of Blood Buddha Temple gradually subsided, but the blood-red light in the meditation hall became even more intense.

Even outside the Five Directions City, many eyes were drawn to him. After all, a high priest who could overpower the Six-Eyed Monk was enough to attract the attention of most of the evil gods.

In the teahouse, Wu Zhuangyuan, who was telling a story, suddenly slammed his hand on the table, apologized, and returned to Cuiwei Lane.

He kept cursing all the way: "Don't even think about having a peaceful time, you damn bastard!"

Li Wushou was naturally unaware that he had unknowingly gained such influence.

After instructing Feng Sishui to summon the minor priests, he returned to the River of Yin Qi.

After discreetly surveying the long river, Li Wushou respectfully bowed to the avatars of the City God and the Martial God, and slowly spoke:
"Li Wushou has an important matter to report to the City God!"

Having said that, apart from the sparrow in the heart of the City God's soul taking a break, the souls of the City God and the Martial God went back to sleep and eat as usual!

Li Wushou didn't mind and continued speaking to himself:

"Throughout this period of time, I've been thinking about what happened during the purge of Cui Family Village, and it's been bothering me ever since, and I have to get it out of my mouth!"

Quezi's expression hardened, and she listened even more intently, while Li Wushou, who was speaking, became even more excited.

"The Tree Goddess and the Paper Goddess on Guanyin Mountain outside the South City are usually very rebellious, daring to be called one of the Five Directions and Three Great Mountains alongside the City God. Where do they put the City God and the civil and military officials with such behavior?"

Li Wushou paced back and forth, pointing out the landscape!

"Despite this, the City God, who is benevolent to all, did not hold it against the other party. However, on that day in Cui Family Village, this Tree Goddess dared to openly interfere in the affairs of the City God Temple, attempting to harm the officials!"

Li Wushou offered another compliment, then turned his attention directly to the Tree Goddess!

"Such a rebellious and treacherous person, with wolfish ambitions, I intend to lead all the priests to the Burial Soul Forest, with the Martial God Priest in command, to strike at the heart of the matter and kill that Tree Goddess, leaving her hanging corpse, as a warning to others!"

These words were spoken with great passion and intense emotion!
But the two spirits at the head of the table continued to eat and sleep as usual.

However, the sparrow in the City God's heart was somewhat flustered. Did it think that it had subdued Six Eyes with the help of the minor priest and that it was now invincible? It hadn't heard the other party mention this matter when it returned from Cui Family Village, but now that it had only subdued Six Eyes not long ago, it was acting all high and mighty.

But this is good too. Li Wushou is arrogant and ignorant of his own limitations. This is a good opportunity to deal with him.

Not only did Zhu Sihai find Li Wushou troublesome, but through these repeated incidents, even Quezi, who initially didn't take Li Wushou seriously, began to find him somewhat of an eyesore.

Seeing that Li Wushou was still waiting for the City God's reply, Quezi thought of simulating the City God to give him affirmation!

Unexpectedly, Li Wushou below suddenly drew the City God's Magic Sword from his waist and spoke loudly again:
"The City God remains silent, likely out of consideration for the neighborly relationship of over a hundred years. However, as the High Priest of the City God, I cannot tolerate such disrespect for the City God's authority happening again. That Tree Goddess has offended the City God, and I will surely execute her! As for the City Lord Zhu Sihai, after I have executed the Tree Goddess, I will then execute him!"

After saying this, Li Wushou bowed again to the two divine souls.

"The day after tomorrow, I need to commission a clay statue of a Martial God. At the crucial moment, I will need the Martial God to descend and assist us in annihilating the Burial Soul Forest!"

After saying this, Li Wushou sheathed the City God's magic sword back into his waistband. Before the City God and the Martial God could react, he took a step and left the River of Yin Qi.

Inside the back hall of the City God Temple, the minor deities had gradually gathered together.

The temple's farewell bell rang early, and the worshippers noticed something was amiss; it seemed that something big had happened at the City God Temple again!

After Lin You and Fu Feng, who were far away outside the city investigating matters concerning the civil priests, hurriedly returned from outside the west city, the twenty-four minor priests finally reunited!
Li Wushou stood in front of the crowd, a City God's sword slung at his waist, dressed in a dark blue robe that had been altered by Li Erniu's wife to fit him perfectly.

"Greetings, High Priest!"

The twenty-four junior priests bowed in unison, creating a great spectacle that even the worshippers who hadn't finished cleaning up in the front hall heard the commotion! Then, one by one, they walked out with excited expressions.

They passed it around among themselves along the way.

"High Priest Li Wushou, leading his junior priests, is about to make another big move. Guess who will be unlucky this time?"

"."

After waving to everyone, Li Wushou spoke solemnly.

"The Goddess of the Burial Soul Forest outside Sibei City, disregarding the City God's kindness, has openly interfered in the City God's affairs and provoked the City God Temple. Therefore, I have petitioned the City God today to launch a campaign against the Burial Soul Forest the day after tomorrow! The Martial God Officer will also accompany us this time, determined to uproot the Burial Soul Forest as a warning to others!"

"Now that the City God has made the promise, do you all agree?"

The junior priests naturally had no objections, but each of them, clasped their fists with menacing expressions and shouted:
"As the High Priest commands!"

Then, as if realizing something, everyone added in unison, "As the City God commands!"

"it is good!"

Li Wushou praised it, and then addressed the crowd:

"In that case, Lin You, Fu Feng, listen to my command: bring out the Martial God's carriage and the Lesser God's carriage!"

"Please follow me to the Five Directions City."

"Order troops!"
