Chapter 359: You've Grown a Dog's Courage! (Please Subscribe!!)

"You've grown a dog's courage!"

"How dare you show disrespect to my lord Tianquan!"

The Qianyan soldiers holding the two men down, their eyes filled with anger, swung their long spears, piercing one man's shoulder with a thrust, while simultaneously kicking the village head's younger brother in the head.

Insulting my lord Tianquan right before their eyes?

You clearly don't know how to write the character for 'death'!

The village head's younger brother let out a wail, convulsing continuously.

At this moment, the village head dared not make a sound.

Although his rank was low and he had never seen such so-called high officials.

But when this group of men holding long spears spoke the four words 'my lord Tianquan'.

He knew that no one could save him.

The only one in all of Liyue who could be addressed as my lord Tianquan is that single individual.

The Grand Steward of Liyue, the head of the Seven Stars, the Tianquan Star.

An immortal who shares the same lifespan as the nation of Liyue!

Even now, every household in Liyue still places statues of the Immortal Lords and the Emperor Lord.

As a village head, could he not know what the two characters 'Tianquan' represent?

Even Little Ningguang in Jiang Yan's arms was stunned.

She never expected that this white-haired big brother she had happened to meet would actually be Liyue's Tianquan!

She suddenly remembered what Jiang Yan had told her yesterday: if she could pass the assessment, she would become his disciple and inherit his mantle in the future.

What is the mantle of Liyue's Tianquan?

Isn't that precisely the position of Tianquan itself?

Instantly, Little Ningguang felt a sense of panic within her heart.

This big brother who treated her so well turned out to be that legendary figure.

"Little Ningguang, go fetch your mother."

Jiang Yan gently patted Little Ningguang on the shoulder and spoke to her in a soft voice.

Little Ningguang nodded, then ran quickly to support the woman who was being helped up by the Qianyan soldiers.

"Ningguang."

"Mother."

The mother and daughter embraced, their bodies trembling continuously.

Little Ningguang brought her mother to Jiang Yan's side.

Little Ningguang's mother, her body trembling, wore a look of deep gratitude on her sallow face.

"Th-thank you, my lord Tianquan!"

Little Ningguang's mother had been standing at the back the whole time and had heard the soldiers address Jiang Yan.

Jiang Yan nodded; looking at Little Ningguang's mother, he frowned slightly.

"You seem to be ill."

Little Ningguang's mother was clearly uneasy; upon hearing Jiang Yan's words, her face changed slightly, and she hurriedly stepped back a few paces.

"S-sorry, my lord Tianquan, my illness is not contagious..."

"Uh..."

Jiang Yan scratched his head somewhat awkwardly; he knew he had frightened the other party.

"It's fine, I didn't mean that. Come here."

Jiang Yan beckoned to her with a wave of his hand.

Little Ningguang's mother walked nervously to stand before Jiang Yan.

After all, status crushes people, especially in a mountain village like this, where people like Jiang Yan are the stuff of legend.

When a legend suddenly appears before you, who wouldn't feel a bit of nervousness in their heart?

Jiang Yan extended his hand toward her; in his mind, the Horse Talisman lit up, and a faint glow emerged in his palm.

Little Ningguang's mother only felt streams of warm flow surge into her body, healing the injuries within her and curing her illness.

"There, your illness has been completely eradicated by me."

Jiang Yan said to Little Ningguang's mother with a smile.

"It's just that your body is currently somewhat weak due to long-term malnutrition; when we return, have Little Ningguang buy you some food to nourish yourself."

Little Ningguang's mother looked at her own hands in disbelief; she could feel that the pain in her body was gone, replaced instead by a feeling of fullness of strength.

"Thank you, thank you, my lord Tianquan!"

Tears streaming down her face, Little Ningguang's mother was about to kneel before Jiang Yan.

If she hadn't been plagued by a critical illness, how could she have borne to let her daughter, so young, go out to earn money to support the family?

"Mother!"

Little Ningguang suddenly threw herself into her mother's arms, crying with joy.

Seeing the scene of the mother and daughter embracing and weeping, Jiang Yan could not bear to disturb them and spoke to the surrounding Qianyan soldiers.

"Take them all away; Liyue's laws will judge them in due time, and I will personally oversee the trial!"

Jiang Yan would not let them off so easily.

Whether it was the village head, the village head's younger brother, Liu Yan, or those Qianyan guards who had committed crimes.

He would make these people suffer torture until they died in agony.

Even their souls, Jiang Yan would strip them out, place them at Wuwang Hill, and subject them to endless karmic fire torment for eternity, until their sins were cleansed.

Amidst the wailing and pleas for mercy from the village head and his younger brother, the Millelith escorted them away from the village.

Also taken away were the village head's relatives.

They too would face trial and receive punishment corresponding to the charges brought against them.
