I have a Taoist temple that connects me to other worlds
#72 - It's over
A day's energy was quite abundant, yet even Jiang Wen felt fatigue.
For him, the greatest gain this time was none other than that World Pearl. And…
Touching his chest, Jiang Wen took out a storage pouch embroidered with a lotus flower, woven with golden silk threads, depicting a white lotus.
Below the storage pouch, he saw two words: Su Jing.
"Su Jing? Could it be the name of that Grand Esoteric True Man?" Jiang Wen stroked the words, recalling what the Grand Esoteric True Man had told him at parting.
He told him that he had a daughter alive in the world, but he could not find her no matter what, which was his only regret in this life.
If possible, he wanted to ask Jiang Wen to help him find her. Finding her would be the best outcome; if he couldn't find her, then erect a grave for his daughter, and consider her dead.
In return, the Grand Esoteric True Man gave him the treasures he had collected over the years, which could be considered a transaction.
Jiang Wen held the storage pouch, feeling rather heavy-hearted.
He quite liked the Grand Esoteric True Man, but unfortunately, they had met for too short a time to become friends.
Raising his head, he gazed at the bright moon, the smoke and clouds dispersing.
The night sky emitted an unusually dazzling brilliance, as if a seven-colored gauze wrapped around the round moon.
Jiang Wen poured a glass of wine and slowly walked to the window, looking at the bright moon, raising his cup as if to draw it into the wine.
Su Mu paused for a long time before slowly withdrawing his gaze: "Truly a peculiar woman."
"Immortal, this matter is also forced upon me. If I don't comply, I will die a horrible death!" the Prefect wailed.
"Immortal, do you know that if such a major event is exposed, Qingzhou will inevitably be in chaos! Is the Immortal not afraid of being resented by the people of the Immortal Sects?!"
As he spoke, the mirror transformed into a star vortex, like a whirlpool in the sea, attracting attention.
"Thank you, Fellow Daoist, for resolving this matter. This is a reward from the Grand Divinity Palace to you, Fellow Daoist, I hope you will accept it. Also, may I ask Fellow Daoist's name?"
There were people guarding the station, and when they saw Jiang Wen dragging the Prefect, they were about to attack, but suddenly seeing the jade token in his hand, the guarding disciples silently retreated.
"Just go forward without hesitation." Jiang Wen sneered. What if he was resented by the cultivators in the Immortal Sect? At worst, he just wouldn't come anymore. If he couldn't afford to offend them, he could just hide. This Prefect knew how to threaten people.
"Me? I am Lu Xueqi of Qingzhou." Jiang Wen took the storage pouch and responded to Su Mu. He held the storage pouch in his hand and waved it. "Then I won't be polite."
"Tell me everything about your affair with Zhang Qian, a cultivator from the Grand Divinity Palace, without any concealment. Otherwise, you will bear the consequences."
The two stone spirit beasts sniffed Jiang Wen's scent, then sniffed the Prefect's. Finally, with ferocious expressions, they roared at the Prefect, scaring him into howling, fearing that he would be eaten by the stone spirit beasts in the next moment.
"This beast is handed over to you in the Grand Divinity Palace, but don't let another scoundrel appear." Jiang Wen said, without stopping, and strode away. Before he had taken a few steps, he was stopped by Su Mu, who threw a storage pouch at him.
"This disciple is certain that whether it is finding my younger sister or thoroughly investigating my father's grievances, this disciple will not give up."
Having said that, his figure disappeared in the hall.
When he found Su Mu, the other party seemed to be in poor spirits. He was a little surprised to see Jiang Wen come in, and frowning when he saw the Prefect behind him.
Jiang Wen then transformed into the woman he was before, dragging the Tai Cang Prefect to the station.
"Meeting you once, Old Taoist, you can be considered my friend."
"…Alas." The True Man sighed. "Are you sure you want to continue the investigation?"
"Does Fellow Daoist have any evidence?" Su Mu asked again.
The doors of the hall closed, and no one knew what happened inside.
"I, this official knows! This official will tell you now!" the Prefect said with a look of horror.
He bowed to the mirror and said, "Please, True Man."
Jiang Wen, however, had no expression on his face, not caring about his scrutiny.
When Su Mu came out, his hands were covered in blood.
"Have you ever thought about the children you harmed?" Jiang Wen said coldly. The demon cave was filled with mountains of white bones, all of them children. Even people with hearts of stone would feel a little pity when they saw it. This Prefect was so wolf-hearted and dog-lunged, doing such outrageous things.
A night passed without a word.
Su Mu looked at the figure in the video, his gaze turning to the Prefect. His face was a little dignified, with a hint of anger in his eyes: "Do you have anything else to say?!"
Walking to a mirror, Su Mu took out a jade token and integrated it into it.
"Please tell me, Fellow Daoist." Su Mu respectfully saluted.
Jiang Wen did not delay, and told everything about his fight with the old man, and then chasing into the demon cave and encountering the Scarlet Tiger transformation. However, he concealed the matter of the Grand Esoteric True Man being imprisoned in the demon cave.
The next day, Jiang Wen took the recorded video to Su Mu at the station of the Grand Divinity Palace. According to Li Yunshang, Su Mu was a person who could not tolerate sand in his eyes. If he gave the evidence to him, he would definitely turn the matter upside down.
"Naturally, the demon cave is full of children's bones. All the good deeds done by this beast." Jiang Wen kicked the Prefect, who was paralyzed like a dead pig, and said with disgust.
"Disciple, what is the matter?"
He muttered to himself, then turned his gaze to the Prefect.
Speaking softly, he poured the wine down, the slender wine shimmering in the moonlight.
The Grand Divinity Palace's Six Palaces' personal disciple token, can't afford to offend, can't afford to offend.
The star vortex gathered into a human form, but it was an old man composed of starlight standing in front of Su Mu.
"I already know." Su Mu nodded, and didn't ask any further. Under his sleeves, his five fingers were clenched tightly into fists.
"Yes." Jiang Wen neatly took out the tablet and played the video he had prepared for Su Mu to watch. The entire process was recorded, without any cutting. From the Prefect getting drunk with the women, to Jiang Wen fighting with the cultivator of the Grand Divinity Palace, it was all clearly recorded. When Jiang Wen summoned the Five Thunder Talisman, the video abruptly stopped.
"Fellow Daoist, what is the meaning of this?"
"My father's remains appeared near the demon cave, who exactly… no matter who it is, I will investigate to the end."
"Thirty years, Master. This disciple has been looking for my father for thirty years! This disciple endured the pain of returning to childhood, changing his appearance just for this moment." Su Mu gritted his teeth.
"Then go, but don't force it." The True Man sighed softly.
"This disciple understands."
