Chapter 52: Rebirth and Fame, Old Sun's Deal [Bonus Chapter, Requesting Monthly Tickets]

As dawn broke, the convoy from Wangyou County was already preparing to return home.

After completing their handover mission, they did not stay in Hangzhou for long. One reason was that Wangyou County was too weak, and Lu Yuan, as the pillar of stability, could not leave for too long.

On the other hand, the mission being handed over involves the evil sect, the Demon Yin Sect. Lu Yuan's combat power is explosive, so he is naturally not afraid of the so-called Demon Yin Sect, but the others are not so good; their martial arts are too poor.

For them, the longer they stayed in Hangzhou, the more dangerous it became.

It would be better to go home early and reunite with parents, wife and children.

"Holy crap, where's the Golden Coin Tower?"

"What happened to this huge money building? Why was it all demolished?"

"It was all taken apart overnight?"

"Big cities are indeed big cities; their craftsmen are more efficient than those in our Wangyou County."

As they passed the Money Tower, Er Gouzi suddenly exclaimed in surprise.

Pointing to the ruins of the Golden Money Building, I was struck by the extraordinary nature of big cities.

Several constables beside him echoed Er Gouzi's sentiments.

Only a few people looked at Lu Yuan, who was at the front, with strange eyes.

Er Gouzi and his gang are fast asleep; they didn't wake up even when the fighting was deafening last night.

They were different; they were woken up last night.

Naturally, they witnessed how their chief constable slaughtered the members of the Canal Gang, including punching the gang leader and their Money Tower flying together.

It's not that demolitions in big cities are faster; it's simply that their chief constable is more capable of demolishing houses.

No matter how big your house is, I can blow it to smithereens with one punch.

When it comes to demolishing houses, the chief constable is a professional.

"Stop arguing, it's no big deal. Are you hungry? I bought some steamed buns."

Is it a meat bun?

"Vegetable buns, eat them if you want, get lost if you don't. You want meat buns too? Do you know how expensive meat buns are in Hangzhou? Three times more expensive! Three times more expensive! And the bun skin is thicker. I'd rather not buy one."

"Why not save some money and go to Cuiyuan Tower instead?"

"Old Sun, please, can you stop being so stingy? You've taken a lot of the profits from Black Mountain Village."

“I have no problem with you spending this money on young girls, but you can’t keep going to brothels. Your tastes are getting worse and worse, and I’m scared.”

The fellow constables kept complaining.

Because after they handed over the reins to Master Liu yesterday, Old Sun's first priority was not to rest at the inn, but to enjoy himself at a brothel.

He doesn't go for young girls; he goes for brothel madams.

The kind of wrinkles on your face that could trap a fly.

I really admire him.

"You're still young, you don't understand."

"Young girls have their advantages, and madams naturally have theirs."

"I've been suffering from rheumatism lately."

"Who else would you go to if not the madam?"

Old Sun revealed a look of lingering satisfaction.

"Damn, I despise you."

"Hey, can you guys smell something rotten?"

"A very strong smell of blood."

"I hope there haven't been any murders at this Golden Coin Building."

Er Gouzi suddenly smelled a strong stench of blood. As a constable, his professional skills were instinctively activated.

His martial arts skills were mediocre, but his professional abilities were exceptional.

"Smart, Er Gouzi, your skills have improved. However, the murderer is here."

Old Sun pointed at Lu Yuan.

"Huh? The Chief Constable?"

"Did the Canal Gang come to their deaths last night?"

Er Gouzi thought about how Lu Yuan killed the young leader of the Cao Gang yesterday.

"Pretty much. The Grand Canal Gang was in turmoil, the deputy leader rebelled, and our chief constable took the opportunity to resolve the conflict with the Grand Canal Gang, killing the gang leader and his loyal followers."

Old Sun recounted the events of the previous night to the constable who was still asleep.

"Wow, I heard that the leader of the Canal Gang is a second-rank master, and he also has Heaven-level martial arts."

"Our chief constable killed him with a single punch? And he even destroyed the Golden Coin Building in the process."

"The chief constable is awesome."

"The chief constable is invincible."

"Who would dare to cause trouble in our Wangyou County in the future?"

Everyone suddenly became excited.

Their leader is indeed the most awesome.

From now on, who will dare to underestimate Wangyou County?

"It's unlikely to cause any trouble, but our workload is going to increase dramatically."

Old Sun shook his head.

Becoming famous has its advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is that when your name is well-known, others won't dare to mess with you.

However, there are also downsides.

Just like five years ago, Lu Yuan became famous throughout Dayong by stepping on Qingcheng Mountain.

Along with this came a number of challengers who also wanted to step on Lu Yuan to make a name for themselves.

During that period, Wangyou County was in complete chaos due to various forces.

Later, Lu Yuan flew into a rage and crippled several groups of talented young men who wanted to make a name for themselves. From then on, Wangyou County became a forbidden place for people in the martial arts world.

As time passed, it was gradually forgotten.

Now, with the battle at Jinqianlou, Lu Yuan's name will resound even more.

The reason is simple: the position of leader of the Grand Canal Gang is more prestigious.

Peak of the second rank, Heaven-level martial arts, leader of a top-tier sect in the martial arts world.

None of these titles are bad.

If Lu Yuan could kill him with one punch, he could naturally kill others as well.

How could a name not be renowned?
"make trouble?"

"No."

"We're not afraid of them causing trouble, we're afraid they're coming to become our disciples."

Old Sun smiled.

Lu Yuan's strength is too outrageous; even the older generation of heroes are no match for him.

Even the most foolish young talent wouldn't dare challenge a top-tier martial arts master.

On the contrary, the number of people wanting to become apprentices will increase dramatically.

"Why should I take a master? I don't know any martial arts."

Lu Yuan smiled, not taking Lao Sun's words to heart.

Even the tips he gave Chen Yiyi were made up.

What can he teach?

Do you teach others how to iterate numerical values?

He doesn't know either.

His stats increased on their own.

"Old Sun, what did you want to see Master Liu about yesterday?"

"I saw Old Sun sneaking around talking to Master Liu yesterday."

"It's probably some kind of backroom deal."

"Money or a girl?"

"She might be a madam."

"Couldn't it be a confession?"

"Male on top of male, right?"

People started using their imaginations and making up all sorts of nonsense.

"Go away, it was a transaction, but not the kind you're thinking of. I was just interested in the story he told, so we chatted about it."

"The one where you saw ghosts in the Loulan underground palace?"

"Correct."

"Tch, all this nonsense. You want to try going to the underground palace of Loulan? Be careful, you might lose your life."

"You may not believe in gods and ghosts, but you should still maintain a sense of awe."

Most people still hold gods and ghosts in high esteem.

"I know, I'm just curious."

"So what did you trade?"

"It's nothing, it's just that once things calm down, we'll help his family get out of jail. I agreed."

"Old Sun, do you have any money?"

"No."

"What did you agree to without it?"

“Master Liu is rich. He has a small treasury with 30,000 taels of silver. 10,000 taels is my reward, and the remaining 20,000 taels will be given to his family after they are redeemed.”

Old Sun was very satisfied with his deal.

After all, among these people, only Lu Yuan and he had the ability, resources, and credibility to redeem Liu Yuanwai's family.

Lu Yuan was definitely unwilling, because he found it troublesome and he didn't lack money.

In the end, we can only rely on Old Sun.

Even Old Sun couldn't tell if the story of the Loulan underground palace was true or false. Perhaps it was real, perhaps it was fake, and perhaps it was bait deliberately thrown out by Master Liu.

Whether it's true or not, Master Liu has achieved his goal.

"Ten thousand taels? You have to treat us to a meal."

"roll."
