The villain and I have eight hundred minds combined

He has lived in the world for hundreds of years and has long since developed a character as calm as water. Before he became an immortal, the frivolity, stubbornness and all kinds of determination of his youth had long left him. Now, he is drifting in the world, with a heart like duckweed.

All the negative emotions belonging to mortals are gradually drifting away with the wind.

But until he met Mu Hanxing, he discovered that in this world, he still had something he longed for, and that was to continue to be a god respected by others.

It turns out that even after being transcendental and reborn, gods still have desires.

In these three realms, no matter whether it is humans, ghosts, gods or demons, as long as life continues, desires will continue. The only difference lies in whether one can curb the desires in one's heart.

It was Mu Hanxing who defeated him by force and forcibly took him away from Huajing. Since then, the people of Huajing have been slowly forgetting him.

Later, he returned to Huajing again, and found that he was no longer the one worshipped in the streets and shrines in the small temples. At this moment, he clearly felt the loss and anger in his heart, and the frivolity and arrogance he had as a mortal also emerged at the same time.

It's simply a thought that leads to the mortal world.

That day, he did travel all over Huajing, but he didn't go there to enjoy himself. He wanted to see which corner had his sculpture.

Later, he only saw statues of the God of Wealth in a few houses where a few elderly people lived.

He bought a mask on the street, covered his face, and pretended to be a Taoist priest who came to visit and tell fortunes.

A kind-looking old lady opened the door for him. He was polite and bowed: "I am a Taoist priest who happened to travel here. I saw that the mountains and rivers here are beautiful and the people are harmonious. May I ask which deity is enshrined here?"

"Oh!" Seeing the gentle temperament of the young man, the old lady immediately smiled and replied, "Every household used to believe in the God of Wealth, but later the Imperial Master cured the plague for everyone, and gradually, everyone in this city started to worship the Imperial Master!"

Jingchen's eyes darkened and he looked up into the house. There were only a few families who still worshipped him. His statue on the shrine was covered with dust and no one had cleaned it for a long time.

"That's it, thank you for letting me know."

He nodded slightly and left quickly.

Thinking of this, he didn't know who to hate. Maybe he should hate Mu Hanxing who took him away, or maybe he should hate Jing Leizi who replaced him even more.

Since he didn't want to hurt Mu Hanxing now, he simply killed Jing Leizi to vent his anger.

Jing Chen collected his thoughts and emotions, and said calmly: "Not many people in Huajing still remember me. People on the street even discuss General Yunhui who sacrificed his life for the country a hundred years ago. More people discuss how Jing Leizi is like the living Hua Tuo who cured everyone's diseases."

Mu Hanxing asked him seriously, "It seems that you must resent me in your heart, but now that things have come to this, why don't you listen to me and stop fighting each other all day. I'll be straightforward. From today on, you forget about Huajing and concentrate on managing your finances in Fuyue City. The Emperor of Huajing betrays you, but I won't. As long as you are loyal, the title, reward, and rest days will be up to you. Besides, you know how I treated you before. I don't favor someone easily, but if I favor you this much, even if I were a stone, it would melt."

Jingchen looked at her and remained silent.

Mu Hanxing thought about it carefully and decided that instead of seeking revenge, it would be better to win over talented people so that he would have no worries.

The Three Realms are so vast that it would be too low-class to only talk about that little hatred. Just like when she knew that Long Jin had mobilized the Feiyu Clan to participate in killing her, she would consider letting him manage the army in the city. This was not repaying kindness with evil, but trying to find a way to incite everyone to rebel and treat them all as resources that she could use to deal with bigger enemies.

Not to mention Fuyue City for now, she has no idea what forces or military forces exist in other circles, so this is the safest way to do it.

Seeing Jingchen was thinking carefully, Mu Hanxing did not urge him. It was not so easy to make someone loyal, so she asked again: "Have you ever thought about why the people can remember Yunhui and Jingleizi, but why they only forget you?"

Jing Chen raised his eyelids, and there was a light in his handsome eyes.

"That's because they have done practical things and made real achievements. Even if Jing Leizi is a liar, he has the brains to deceive people. From the perspective of the people, their relatives were saved by him, and it is not an exaggeration to say that 'God has come to the world', so so many people would believe him. But you have no political achievements. Everyone knows that you make money, but you have never let the people know what you have done." Mu Hanxing slowly analyzed it for him, "When the work is done, you leave, hiding your merits and fame. This is indeed a good character. Since you have chosen to be indifferent to fame and fortune, don't be depressed because others don't remember you. You have to choose one of the two paths."

Jingchen was stunned, his expression changed, and he looked at her with burning eyes.

Before, he was in a dilapidated temple but his heart was in the court. When people’s livelihood was in decline, it was he who offered advice to the emperor, which led to the improvement of people’s livelihood and the country’s recovery. Who knew about these things?

"Anyway, think it over carefully." Mu Hanxing looked at all the city's account books that she had just checked, and couldn't help but ask again, "Since you haven't embezzled a single copper leaf, how did you become so rich?"

Jingchen answered honestly: "I have hundreds of shops in Huajing."

"..."

Why didn't you tell me earlier that you were the president of a chain store in the city! ?

If you had told me earlier, wouldn't I have been in love with you long ago! ?

Mu Hanxing was so angry! He pinched his thigh and just let it go.

She looked at him with sparkling eyes and said shamelessly: "Princess Jing... can you let me collect some bonuses? Even giving me a shop will do!"

Isn’t this considered the common property of the couple?

Jing Chen was stunned again when he looked at her. After a long while, he couldn't help but smiled calmly: "The city lord had a serious talk with me. It turned out to be about a shop. Since the city lord wants it, I can give it to you."

"Really?!" Mu Hanxing's eyes lit up. "Are you so easy to talk to today?"

She pretended not to understand the sarcasm in his words and looked excited.

"It is my honor that Lord City Lord can help me relieve the depression in my heart. It is also my duty to give you a shop." Jingchen said respectfully.

"Then I won't be polite with you." Mu Hanxing said again, "After dealing with things in the city, I need to go down to the mortal world and return to Wenxinmen. I don't know when I will be back. I can't do without money. My inner treasury may not be enough. I'll lend you the shop. I can pay you back when I make a profit in the future."

Jing Chen thought she was going to run the business herself, so he explained, "Lord City Lord, you don't have to do it yourself. Each shop has a little paper man in charge of running it. You just need to collect the bills every month."

"Little paper figurines?" Mu Hanxing was curious. "I've heard that people in the human world use paper figurines for funerals. Is that what it is?"

Jing Chen smiled gently and shook his head. That smile actually made her feel a little doted on.
