This man was not only ugly, but also short in stature and stubby in limbs. He didn't have a samurai sword on his waist, but he was carrying a full set of outfits as a painter on his back.

"You guys say you're a samurai, right! But no matter how I look at it, you look like a painter!"

The ugly painter was kneeling on the ground, staring at Zi Ling in a daze.

After hearing Nie Yi's words, the artist came back to his senses, hurriedly knocked his head on the ground and said.

"My lord! I am indeed a warrior descended from the nobles of the capital. As a proof of my bravery, I have wiped out all the bandits in your territory before meeting you."

"Oh... this is really amazing! I should reward you according to your merits for eliminating the bandits who are making trouble everywhere!"

Nie Yi looked at the ugly painter with a smile on his face.

Although this painter is just an ordinary human being, maybe he can't even beat an old farmer who plows the fields, but this painter does have a strong smell of blood.

To be correct, the smell of blood was not emanating from the painter himself, but from the bamboo tube with ink on his back.

Nie Yi squinted his eyes, looked through the bamboo tube, and saw that the ink inside was all mixed with demon power, and in the center of the ink was a piece of precious jade emitting black light.

If I guessed correctly, the piece of precious jade exuding black light and turbid demon power should be the legendary jade of the four souls.

Hearing that Nie Yi said that he wanted a reward, the ugly painter looked at Zi Ling excitedly and said.

"Master City Lord! I have an invincible army. Please marry Your Highness the Princess to me as my wife. I will definitely use my army to help Lord City Lord unify the troubled times of the Warring States."

"Are you an idiot? The power of a mere fragment of the jade of the four souls can help me unify the troubled times of the Warring States Period? If the power of the jade fragments of the four souls is so powerful, those who have obtained the complete jade of the four souls for hundreds of years would have already unify the country."

For hundreds of years, countless monsters and humans have obtained the complete jade of the four souls, but they all died in obscurity, leaving no reputation in history.

The lord of the Western Kingdom, General Douya Wanggou, did not get the Jade of the Four Souls, but he seized the territory of the Western Kingdom from the hands of the leopard cats and became the strongest monster of his time.

This ugly painter just got a fragment of the jade of four souls. Maybe he can defeat the ordinary human army, but he can't defeat the eminent monk with powerful mana and the witch with powerful spiritual power.

And if the human army aimed at the painter himself, it only needed a sharpshooter to kill him.

Seeing that Nie Yi knew that he had fragments of the jade of the four souls on him, the painter squatted back on the ground in panic, then shook his head and waved his hands.

"No! No! The Lord City Lord must have misunderstood. I don't have any fragments of the jade of the four souls on my body. I defeated the rebellious bandits with my brave army."

"Don't worry, human beings! I'm not interested in the jade fragments of the four souls on your body, but the smell of blood on your body is really annoying! If you don't want to be killed by me, get out of Nagano City immediately!"

"Ming, I understand... the villain will leave now!"

Unwillingly looking at Zi Ling, the painter turned and left as if he was running away.

Seeing the back of the painter leaving, Zi Ling came to sit beside Nie Yi and asked doubtfully.

"Why...the jade fragments of the four souls are not left behind?"

According to legend, the Jade of the Four Souls is a treasure that can fulfill any wish, and can also make monsters and humans the most powerful existence in the world.

Nie Yi shook his head and said with a smile.

"The witch Cuizi who made the Jade of Four Souls and the group of monsters couldn't avoid death. How could the Jade of Four Souls condensed by their souls have the ability to fulfill wishes! The power of Jade of Four Souls can at best only improve the owner The power of the power, let them have a false immortality."

Although I only saw fragments of the Jade of the Four Souls, Nie Yi had already figured out that the complete Jade of the Four Souls could at most possess a power comparable to that of the God Extinguisher.

As a great god at the level of a creation god, Nie Yi certainly wouldn't look at the Jade of the Four Souls like the monsters and humans in this world, let alone that the painter only had fragments of the Jade of the Four Souls.

After reorganizing the army of Nagano City, at night, Nie Yi entertained the retainers of Nagano City in the palace and accepted the loyalty of these retainers at the same time.

When the banquet was halfway through, a soldier suddenly came in to report that there was a young mage outside who wanted to see the city lord.

Zi Ling, who was quietly sitting next to Nie Yi, raised her head, looked outside the palace and said.

"The pieces of the Jade of the Four Souls... come again!"

"I didn't expect that the jade fragments of the four souls, which monsters and humans dream of, would come to my territory one after another!"

Nie Yi couldn't help smiling, and asked the soldiers to bring the young mage in.

Although the young mage who walked into the palace wore a black cassock and held a rosary, he had black hair. He was obviously a fake monk who could drink, eat meat, marry and have children.

The black-clothed mage with a handsome face held a tin stick in his left hand and a rosary in his right hand. He glanced at Nie Yi and the retainers of Nagano Castle in the palace room, and finally fell on Zi Ling, his eyes lit up.

"Master City Lord! My name is Maitreya, and I have always been called Master Maitreya! When I came here, I saw an ominous shadow hanging over the palace of Lord City Lord. I am afraid that there will be evil spirits attacking Lord City Lord and His Royal Highness. .”

"Oh... that's really scary! Then Master Maitreya, how can you expel the haunting evil spirits?"

Although Nie Yi had an obvious smile on his face, Master Maitreya took out a few talisman papers from his bosom with a solemn expression.

"This is the exorcism talisman paper that my mage Maitreya confidently made. As long as I paste them in the room of the city lord, the evil spirits can be exorcised! Because Her Royal Highness is the main target of evil spirits, please allow me Rest in your room to protect the safety of Her Majesty the Princess."

"It's really interesting! This is the first time I've seen such a lustful mage! But unfortunately, I will expel you from Nagano City for offending the princess."

Two soldiers came in and grabbed Master Maitreya's hands respectively.

Master Maitreya lowered his head and said with a sigh.

"What an unreasonable city lord! At least it should be, let me ask the princess if she would like to have a child for me!"

Just as Master Maitreya was about to be taken out of the palace, an ominous shadow suddenly enveloped Nagano City.

Nie Yi raised his head, looked through the space, and saw that in the center of the black shadow were two evil spirits with the image of a bull's head and a horse's face.

"This is... the masterpiece of that artist!"

Although the bull-headed horse-face in the shadow has the image of an evil spirit, it doesn't have a strong soul, let alone the power of an evil spirit. It just has a huge body and a power beyond that of human beings.
