Chapter 489: Once Again
“You… are you a man or a ghost?!” The young man standing on the wooden boat raised his paddle in alarm, eyes wide with panic as he stared at Hu Shi. After all, anyone would be frightened if someone suddenly emerged from the depths of the river. Hu Shi simply propped up the young woman beside him—who was still coughing up water—against the edge of the boat and calmly asked, “Why did she fall into the river?” The young man swallowed and replied, “My wife has a quick temper. We had a small…-

“Dad... Dad...” The middle-aged woman knelt on the ground. After carefully clearing the dirt from the old man's body with both hands, she clutched his corpse and burst into heartbreaking sobs. The commotion here was considerable, drawing the attention of passing boats. However, none came close; they merely glanced over as they passed by. Beside her, Hu Shi frowned deeply, silently pondering what to do next. Meanwhile, Redtail Fish lay submerged beneath the water’s surface, his body writhing…

Chapter 486: “Joining the Sect”
“Thank you for your concern, Sect Master Zitong, but this matter... I’d rather wait for my friend to arrive and discuss it with him first,” the Red-Tailed Carp replied and then fell silent. Sect Master Zitong nodded. “Then we’ll wait a little longer.” About the time it takes to burn a stick of incense later, a young man in black training clothes could be seen dashing toward them from the far end of the riverside. Though he had been over a hundred meters away at first glance, it only took a…-

“Grandpa Liu... your body!” Hearing Zheng Hanrui’s shocked voice by his ear, Butcher Liu looked down at himself and gave a bitter smile. “Hahaha… my time has come, today…” Gu Ning’an held a teacup in hand, remained silent for a moment, then gave a casual wave. A breeze swept in from beyond the courtyard. Riding the wind came a leaf from a kumquat tree, about half the size of a palm. The leaf twirled lightly in the air and landed in Butcher Liu’s hand. He held it in confusion, about…

Splash! A massive spray of water burst up from the riverbank! Just as Redtail Fish was reminiscing with Hu Shi about the past, he suddenly turned and dashed toward where the splash had occurred. “Someone fell into the water!” Hearing this, Hu Shi immediately shifted from sitting to a prone position, eyes locked on the surface of the river. As they drew closer to the riverbank, Hu Shi suddenly pointed, “To the left, it’s an old man!” “He’s already sinking!” Upon hearing that, Redtail…

Chapter 479: Lama
In the main hall of the City God Temple, a stern-faced middle-aged man stood with his hands behind his back. This man was none other than Xu Songqiu, the City God of Lexiang County. Ever since he sensed that Butcher Liu had left his home and headed to the Ansi Courtyard, he had been waiting in the main hall. When he saw Gu Ning'an, dressed in white, approaching slowly through the open temple doors, he went forward to greet him with a cupped-fist salute. “Mr. Gu!” Gu Ning'an stepped into the hall…-

Chapter 482: Girl, Hit Them
“Everyone, the officers have already come. Can you leave now?” Gu Ning'an looked at the people present, but the lamas remained unmoved. The shrewish woman who had stood up paused for a moment, then suddenly rushed over and yanked the courtyard gate open with force. “Folks! Come quick and take a look!” “Someone’s trying to steal our ancestral home—and they even hit us!” “Anyone who knows us, come speak up and help judge this matter!” The woman had a loud and powerful voice. Her…-

Letting the matter of hitting his mother slide! Such an “extreme” display of filial piety stunned everyone present. Even the lamas who had been coldly watching from the sidelines couldn’t help but sigh in dismay. The once fiery woman with burning cheeks now felt more pain in her heart than on her face. How could she not realize her son had taken a liking to that pretty-looking girl? The problem was… the girl had just slapped his mother twice! He’s already forgotten his mother for a…

Chapter 480: Land Deed
In front of the Liu family’s old residence, a plump woman pulled out a key and unlocked the front gate. Once it opened, she beckoned a group of lamas inside. After everyone entered, she glanced around, making sure no one had seen them, then gently pulled the gate shut. In the courtyard, the group of lamas, led by the Master Omniscient, gathered around a dried-up well. A young lama handed over a pre-prepared cinnabar brush to Master Omniscient. Just as the latter took the brush and dipped it in…-
