Chapter 95 Slaughter City, the Disruptive Duo.
"Oh." Qian Renxue nodded, a huge weight lifted from her heart.
Jiang Nian walked towards the Spirit Hall branch. The area was much emptier along the way, with no refugees living there.
After all, they dared not come here.
The two arrived at the entrance and immediately saw the lazy guards.
"What are you doing?!"
Jiang Nian didn't waste any words with them, casually taking out his lowest-grade token.
"His... Your Excellency, please come in!"
"Hmm."
Qian Renxue glanced at the guards a few times, muttering a few words of dissatisfaction: "They're too lazy..."
"If you didn't know better, you'd think they were sleeping there."
Jiang Nian: "There's no way around it, the treatment here really can't compare to that of prosperous places."
"Those guards, they seem to only have a few levels of soul power."
Qian Renxue looked at his profile with a puzzled expression, without asking any more questions.
Soon, the two of them met the branch hall master.
"Gentlemen, what level of Soul Masters are you? Please present... um, greetings, Your Excellency the Bishop."
Sack nervously looked at the token on the table, curious as to why such high-ranking figures had returned to this small city?
And why were they so young?
Could it be that he had just taken a concubine yesterday and someone had reported him?
"I'm not here for anything else. I just happened to be passing through this city and witnessed the war."
"Many orphans have been abandoned, and many disaster victims are starving."
"So, I'd like you to send some people to the orphanages established by the Spirit Hall. It would be a good deed."
Sack was taken aback. He hadn't expected that this young bishop would come for this matter.
Actually, he took in quite a few orphans every year, but the number was simply too large, and the manpower and material costs were too high.
"Sigh...who can blame us for the endless war between the two empires? Otherwise, it wouldn't be so troublesome."
"Yes, Your Excellency...I'll send someone to search right away."
Jiang Nian hummed in agreement, then tossed a bag of gold soul coins from his pocket after a moment's thought.
"Here are ten thousand gold soul coins. Recruit more people. As the branch temple master of a border city, your place is far too meager..."
Sak stared blankly at the gold soul coins on the ground, his pupils suddenly shrinking.
A sudden urge to cry welled up inside him.
They had always been the ones offering tribute, and even when there were rewards, they were exploited at each level.
By the time he got a few coins, he was lucky. This was the first time he had seen such a large sum of money, and he didn't know what to say.
"Thank you, Your Excellency! I will arrange everything perfectly!"
"Please rest assured, Your Excellency, in seven days... no, three days, there will definitely be no more large-scale disaster victims in the city!"
Jiang Nian waved his hand: "Alright, I'll come and check in three days."
After saying that, he turned and walked outside without any hesitation.
After coming out, Qian Renxue was full of big question marks.
"Little Jiang, why did you give him money? Isn't this what the branch hall master should do?"
Jiang Nian stopped and pinched her cute little face.
"Yes, it is indeed what he should do... but, Soul Masters are also human and need to eat."
"Only with the incentive of money can they work steadily."
"How much profit can a hall master of a small border town like him make? You can't expect the horse to run without feeding it, can you?"
Speaking of this, Xiaobai in Jiang Nian's pocket poked its head out and nodded in agreement.
It, the little mouse, had been eating chicken and burgers every day since this guy took it away.
Being treated like a beast of burden every day, with absolutely no freedom.
"Little White, you're so heartless! How much has Xiao Jiang fed you? Look at your belly!" Qian Renxue grabbed its head in annoyance, slapping its fat belly with her other hand.
"Anyway, money means nothing to us, but for many people, it's something they yearn for their whole lives."
"Trading money for efficiency is perfectly reasonable."
Jiang Nian rubbed her head, like petting a Hakimi.
Right, it seems the shop sells catwoman costumes...
He has a plan.
"Alright, alright, I don't understand any of this. With you here, do I need to figure out those principles?" Qian Renxue smiled and tilted her head, tossing Little White up and catching it again.
Tossing and catching again.
"Okay, let's go... let's go to the next place."
"Okay!"
This time, Qian Renxue missed, and Little White fell to the ground instantly.
It slowly raised its paws, seemingly about to protest.
"Little White, you're already a ten-thousand-year veteran, what are you pretending for... Hurry up and catch up."
"Squeak!" ...
The carriage continued its journey, and after an unknown amount of time, they stopped in a town.
As soon as the two got out of the carriage, they were met with a lot of stares.
"Oh~ This young man has such delicate skin, it must be quite comfortable to torture him, right?"
"Do you like that woman?"
"No... I'm more interested in that man."
Qian Renxue frowned slightly, her gaze filled with hostility.
How dare they make a move on Xiao Jiang?
Did they not take her seriously?!
"Where is this..." Qian Renxue turned her head and asked.
"The City of Slaughter."
"Huh?!"
The little golden-haired man was stunned, not expecting that the two of them had actually come to the gathering place of the Fallen?
What were they going to do?
Were they going to invade?
Jiang Nian took her arm and walked into a tavern, casually ordered a drink, and the two sat down to observe their surroundings.
The place was filled with madness and violence.
They seemed out of place in their surroundings, naturally attracting the attention of many Fallen people.
"Kid, how about having a drink with me?"
A burly man stepped forward and approached Jiang Nian, thrusting his dagger at him before he could finish him off.
"Ah! You...you filthy woman, get the hell out of my way!"
Qian Renxue, her face grim, raised the dagger and swiftly plunged it into his heart, then kicked him away.
Thud~
The massive body crashed to the ground, causing a commotion among the crowd.
Everyone was shocked; they hadn't expected such a young girl to be so powerful!
That guy, though not that great, was still a Soul Venerable...
Jiang Nian silently sipped the wine, much stronger than the ones outside.
"Damn it! I'm a Soul Venerable!"
The burly man coughed up blood, trying to get up to find that many of his bones seemed broken, blood still gushing from his heart, until his vision blurred.
"Hmph! You think you're worthy to touch Xiao Jiang!"
Qian Renxue waved her hand dismissively, then leaned close to him, her face beaming with delight as if to say, "Praise me! Praise me!"
"We're civilized people, how can we fight and kill?"
"Winning people over with virtue is the most correct approach. Avoid arrogance and impetuosity..."
Jiang Nian put down his wine glass, glancing at the Fallen One behind him.
"Xiaoxue, next time you kill someone, remember to activate your Martial Soul."
