Chapter 447: Hero: Zhiqiu Yiye

“What, Yan Chixia? You’re also named Yan Chixia?”

Nie Xiaoqian, who was cleaning the little girl’s face, raised her head and looked at him suspiciously.

“What do you mean by ‘also’? I’m the only Yan Chixia…

“Wait, do you know Yan Chixia?”

The greedy-looking man didn’t think too much of it at first. He then realized something and looked at Nie Xiaoqian in surprise.

“I was controlled by a Thousand-Year Tree Demon, and it was Mr. Yan and Master who saved me. Mr. Yan also dealt with the general on the Black Mountain. You’re not him!

“Speak. Why are you impersonating him? What’s your purpose?”

Nie Xiaoqian became cold, and a gloomy vibe surfaced on her body. She was surrounded by a mist.

As a core member of Dragon City, she had been through many battles and already developed remarkable battle experience. She was no longer the female ghost she used to be!

“Hey, hey, hey… Let’s talk instead of fighting. I don’t want to fight anymore!”

The greedy-looking man quickly stepped back.

He could tell that even though Nie Xiaoqian wasn’t as strong as Dian Wei, she definitely had treasures that posed threats to him. He wondered how a maid of the Dragon City Chamber of Commerce could be so awesome.

“Fine. Actually, I’m not Yan Chixia… I’m only using his name. The real Mr. Yan died after drinking. I buried him with my own hands!”

He shook his head and spoke with sadness.

“However, when Mr. Yan was drunk, he claimed that I was the reincarnation of Zhiqiu Yiye from the Kunlun Mountain. Well, if you don’t want to call me Yan Chixia, you can always call me Zhiqiu.”

Yes, Zhiqiu Yiye!

Ji Ye had recognized him the moment they saw each other.

As the man with the most appearances in the second and third movie of the A Chinese Ghost Story franchise other than the male and female protagonists, Zhiqiu Yiye was definitely a hero!

His sacrifice was quite unforgettable too. In the second movie, he and Yan Chixia fought a strong centipede demon by separating their souls from their bodies.

Eventually, his soul was unable to return to his body due to the lack of his cultivation, and he died.

Obviously, Yan Chixia felt quite guilty about that. He had probably looked around and found the reincarnation of Zhiqiu Yiye. Although he didn’t take the man as his disciple, he taught the man his martial arts and even gave him the sword box as well as the magic scroll of the Kunlun Sect!

Those items were undoubtedly Transcendent. Also, as the reincarnation of Zhiqiu Yiye, his rating was at least Superior.

No wonder he could fight an even battle with Dian Wei without losing.

“Don’t worry. I believe you may meet Mr. Yan shortly after you join the Dragon City Chamber of Commerce!” Ji Ye remarked, deep in thought.

“I’m going to apply!”

“I want to be your guard!”

Stimulated by the five thousand taels of gold that Zhiqiu Yiye received, nobody hesitated any longer. People challenged Dian Wei without stopping.

“Have pity on me and let me pass. My mother is ninety years old and blind. My children are still being breastfed. I have to take care of my four wives…”

Some of them, inspired by the beggar brother and sister, didn’t fight immediately but tried to appeal to Dian Wei’s sympathy by exaggerating their miseries.

However, he was punched away from the crowd the moment he finished his sentence.

When the sun was about to set, Dragon City had hired almost a hundred people, and more than half of them were Extraordinary!

“Okay, that’s all for today!

“Tomorrow after sunrise, the Dragon City Chamber of Commerce will hire again!

“Right, Boss Sun, let your restaurant make preparations. To welcome the new members, the Dragon City Chamber of Commerce and the fellows from the county office will have a dinner in your place,” Ji Ye said to a man who had triangular eyes and the cunningness of a businessman on his face.

He was the boss of the Dragon Phoenix Restaurant near the county office. It was the only place in the entire Guobei County where a hundred people could eat at the same time!

“Well…”

Hearing what Ji Ye said, the boss, who seemed clever, hesitated.

“Here you are. These are the advance payments!”

An Iron Buddha simply threw five golden ingots that weighed ten taels to him.

“Well, President Ji, it’s not a matter of money. It’s just that the deliverers haven’t appeared in ten days. I don’t think we have enough food to serve all of you!”

The boss quickly put the gold in his pocket, but then he hesitated again.

“Go to the county office. The county magistrate will give you some food…”

Ji Ye spoke to him softly.

“Don’t worry. The Dragon City Chamber of Commerce will soon deliver a large batch of food and other resources here.”

He then raised his voice so that everybody here could hear him loud and clear.

“What? Food and resources?”

Upon hearing that, the second-in-command of the Flood Dragon Gang, whose face was grim after ten men were lost in a single afternoon, quickly raised his head.

He glared at Ji Ye with obvious killing intent before he left with his men and the injured gangsters.

“Boss Yu, those people are rich and have food.”

“Should we sneak in tonight, capture their leader, and interrogate him for the location of their assets?”

In a corner that few people paid attention to, a few men, who wore ragged clothes and showed something yellow on their chests, looked apparently greedy.

“Are you an idiot?

“They’ve hired so many people today. Is it possible for us to take them down alone?

“Apart from everything else, the murderous man alone is enough to kill all of you, not to mention the swordsman who knows evil techniques!”

Boss Yu slapped the head of the man who just talked.

“Nobody is going to do anything tonight. We can’t alarm them. Li Dayan and the others are back. If everything goes well, the commander will arrive with an army tomorrow morning.

“However strong they are, they’re absolutely worthless in the presence of General Flying Swallow!” declared Boss Yu confidently.

“But… we…”

A scout still tried to say something.

“Have I not made myself clear? Why are you still talking?”

Boss Yu was quite angry.

A Yellow Turban scout, who had a wound on his forehead, said cautiously, “Boss Yu, did you forget that we’re out of money?”

“Damn it, someone stole our money when we stayed in the inn last night. They even poisoned our wine and stole our weapons and horses too!”

Another soldier of the Yellow Turban Army, whose arm was wounded, was quite angry and desperate.

“Damn it, if we weren’t outnumbered… When our allies arrive tomorrow, we’re going to turn the inn upside down. No, we’ll kill all the men in Guobei County.”

Another Yellow Turban scout said in a low voice, “I was told that there’s a Lanruo Temple to the south of the city. No monks live there anymore. Although it’s dilapidated, we can live there freely…”
