“Open the door for him!” Zheng Shouhe’s hand was tightly clutching a dagger, pressed against Wen Xiangyu’s back.

Wen Xiangyu had no choice but to open the door.

Opening the door revealed a handsome face, belonging to Lu Yang.

Wen Xiangyu desperately signaled to Lu Yang with her eyes, telling him to run, but Lu Yang gave no indication of seeing it. Instead, he donned a professional facade, a forced smile, “Your kebabs.”

Zheng Shouhe too, put on a professional facade, it was all too easy to lure this seemingly honest youth in, “Young man, please come in and sit. Let me get your money.”

Lu Yang, seemingly oblivious, walked in, looking around at the pitch-dark room, he chuckled, “Not even a candle lit, it’s a bit early to be asleep, don’t you think?”

Seeing Lu Yang naively walking in, Wen Xiangyu was on edge, she steeled herself, attempting to push Lu Yang out.

Zheng Shouhe immediately saw through Wen Xiangyu’s intentions, but it was too late – he chuckled coldly, threw Wen Xiangyu behind him, and lunged at Lu Yang with the dagger in the dark.

Zheng Shouhe, who had long been accustomed to the dark, saw his chance, knowing that Lu Yang would need some time to adjust from the streetlight to this darkness!

It seemed that bloodshed was inevitable tonight!

Lu Yang kicked Zheng Shouhe, sending him flying four or five meters away.

Trying to reason scientifically with a Cultivator.

Zheng Shouhe wasn’t expecting Lu Yang’s kick – it was too heavy, too profound, as if a giant rock had slammed into his chest. Seeing stars, a few of his ribs had broken, he spat out a mouthful of blood!

Realising he was in for a tough time, Zheng Shouhe decided that he needed to use a hostage if he was to survive!

Zheng Shouhe suppressed the pain in his chest with sheer will power, and reached for Wen Xiangyu’s wrist.

“If you make another move, I’ll kill her!” Zheng Shouhe viciously threatened.

The figure in Zheng Shouhe’s arms chuckled, “Who are you going to kill?”

Zheng Shouhe looked down, horrified to see that what he was holding wasn’t Wen Xiangyu, but Lu Yang!

A single slap from Lu Yang sent Zheng Shouhe flying, with another swift move, he snatched the dagger away from him, and disarmed Zheng Shouhe’s limbs.

“What rotten luck – Even making a delivery could cause so much trouble.”

Lu Yang took a deep breath, lit a candle, and brought some dim light back into the room.

Wen Xiangyu didn’t expect things to change so quickly, the waiter from the kebab shop had seemed like a divine entity, subduing the fierce criminal in a blink of an eye.

“Are you okay?” Lu Yang helped Wen Xiangyu up from the spot where she’d sat frozen.

“No… no problems,” she managed.

“Good to hear. Now how about paying for those kebabs,” Lu Yang said politely.

“All? Oh… oh,” Wen Xiangyu suddenly remembered that Lu Yang was here to deliver the kebabs and had incidentally saved her.

After giving Lu Yang the money, Wen Xiangyu felt a surge of residual fear, she wanted to say something to alleviate her fear, “Are… are you a cultivator?

“Yes.”

“Cultivators also run businesses?”

“For a living,” Lu Yang replied.

Lying on the ground in anguish, Zheng Shouhe regretted deeply. What rotten luck, he’d so happened to run into a cultivator. Were cultivators nowadays relegated to making deliveries to make a living?

Seeing Wen Xiangyu, who seemed like she’d survived a calamity, Lu Yang chuckled, “I’ll accompany you to report this to the authorities.”

“Thank you,” Wen Xiangyu remembered about the thief upstairs, “Oh, there s

also another person upstairs, probably his accomplice.”

As soon as Wen Xiangyu had woken up, she’d seen Zheng Shouhe and Luk Zhi and had assumed they were in cahoots, the only difference being that they’d turned against each other because of her beauty.

Lu Yang went upstairs to find Luk Zhi tied up securely, he too assumed Luk Zhi was an accomplice of Zheng Shouhe’s, “So they’re working as a group.” Luk Zhi protested, “Don’t make baseless accusations! I have nothing to do with that person – he’s a kidnapper, I’m a thief, both of us are subject to different penalties under the law!”

Lu Yang had a good laugh, “You have quite the understanding of penal law.” “We’ve got to look up the laws before we pull a job to see how many years we’re potentially facing,” Luk Zhi said, demonstrating just how seasoned of a thief he was.

“Then let’s go, let’s see how many years you will face.”

Upon hearing they were heading to the city office, Luk Zhi was so frightened he pleaded, “No, wait, we can talk about this. We’re all trying to make a living here, why be so harsh? Look, I have something valuable for you, how about I give it to you and you let me go?”

Lu Yang regarded Luk Zhi, seeing that he was only a mortal, “What’s this valuable thing?”

“A piece of yellow paper that can make people fall asleep, with this paper, you can make anyone sleep and do whatever you want to them!

Lu Yang thought about the recent anomalies and grimaced, realizing it was not

a simple matter, he coldly asked, “Where is this thing?”

Luk Zhi, of course, wasn’t a fool; he wasn’t just going to answer, “You’ve got to promise to let me go first!”

Lu Yang solemnly swore, “I, Chi Xulong, swear to the heavens, if I don’t let you go, may thunder strike me down!”

Luk Zhi was overjoyed, “The yellow paper is in the corner outside the first floor.”

Clearly, Luk Zhi wasn’t very intelligent either.

Lu Yang jumped down from the second floor, circled around the first floor, and sure enough, he found a piece of yellow paper.

The yellow paper had symbols that Lu Yang couldn’t understand, it seemed to be some kind of charm.

He pocketed the charm responsibly, and went back upstairs, “Where did you get this from?”

“Just under the Big Stone Bridge. One time when I was escaping on a boat, I looked up and saw this yellow paper stuck under the bridge.”

Lu Yang nodded, went downstairs, reattached Zheng Shouhe’s limbs and escorted the two to the city office with Wen Xiangyu trailing behind timidly.

“Hey! You lied!” Luk Zhi started yelling.

Lu Yang gave a cold smile, Chi Xulong was the one to be struck down by lightning, not him.

It so happened that it was Guard Captain Wei’s shift tonight. Seeing Lu Yang escorting two criminals to the city office, he had a “Not you again” feeling.

After hearing the criminals’ stories, Guard Captain Wei stopped joking around and sat up straight. Zheng Shouhe had homicide on his record and was a serious criminal, Lu Yang had done a great service.

“This is the yellow paper that Luk Zhi mentioned,” Lu Yang handed the paper over to Guard Captain Wei, having already memorised the symbols on it. Accepting the yellow paper, Guard Captain Wei began to realize the magnitude of the problem.

He’d heard of some people feeling sleepy during the day, though he hadn t experienced it himself, he didn’t think much of it. Now, it seemed it was the result of intentional mischief!

The current Yanjiang County had God knows how many of these yellow papers hidden away!

But Guard Captain Wei wasn’t sure what the symbols on the yellow paper meant either, he’d have to wait till daylight when the chief comes on duty to ask him.

“Thanks again, I’ll send a pennant your way tomorrow,” Guard Captain Wei said to Lu Yang and Wen Xiangyu after finishing their statements, then waved to say goodbye.

Before leaving, Lu Yang made a quick detour to the prison and found Chi Xulong, “I have a brother named Zheng Shouhe who will be staying here for a while. I would appreciate it if you could look after him.”

Chi Xulong chuckled coldly, so you need my help now. Watch over him? With my supreme Spitting Stone Skill, I’ll show him what’s what!

After escorting Wen Xiangyu back to the tofu shop, Lu Yang firmly declined the tofu offer from Wen Xiangyu.

After all that, the kebab shop had already closed for the day. When Lu Yang returned, he found the two ghouls washing the dishes.

Lu Yang showed the symbols from the yellow paper to Lan Ting, “Take a look at these symbols, do they effect people by making them fall asleep?” After carefully inspecting them, Lan Ting looked surprised, “Where did you find this? This is a Reverse Life Talisman. This talisman absorbs a person’s lifespan. The person being drained will appear listless and sleepy.

“These symbols only affect mortal humans, they won’t have any effect whatsoever on cultivators.”
