Chapter 186 Yu Shishi Joins the Lingyin Temple Tribunal, Su Lu's Ambitions
West Lake in Hangzhou, where the moon is reflected in the three springs.
"Brother Qingyun, is this the place you found for your sister to live? It seems pretty good."
Yu Shishi was looking around at the lake and nearby mountains with great interest, and it was clear that she was very interested in the place.
"Yes, this is Tang Yue's hometown. She is also a guardian of totem beasts, just like you."
Zu Qingyun was looking at the swaying figure in the center of the lake, while Yu Shishi's eyes flashed with a sharp light after hearing his words.
The guardian of the totem beast! Just like me!
(ω)y
"You said there's another totem beast guardian here? Does that mean there's another totem beast here too?"
At this moment, Yu Shishi was like a curious child, asking Zu Qingyun about the totem beasts that lived here and the guardian Tang Yue.
"You'll find out soon enough. The totem beasts that inhabit this place are at the Supreme Monarch level and are the guardians of Hangzhou City. They are much stronger than the Little Moon Moth Phoenix hanging on your shoulder."
As he said this, Zu Qingyun didn't forget to poke the little moon moth phoenix, which had returned to its juvenile stage, with his finger.
Before long, a beautiful woman dressed in light brown clothes rowed to the riverbank where he and Yu Shishi were.
As the morning mist dissipated, her figure gradually appeared before the two of them. Who else could it be but Tang Yue?
"Sister Tang Yue, you've become even more beautiful in just a few months."
Zu Qingyun stepped forward and gave her a big hug, a scene that stunned Yu Shishi.
However, after regaining her senses, she became curious about the relationship between Qingyun and the woman in front of her.
When Tang Yue saw Yu Shishi standing there and felt Zu Qingyun's restless little hands rubbing against her, a blush appeared on her cheeks.
"Qingyun, aren't you going to introduce her to your sister?"
Upon hearing Tang Yue's words, Zu Qingyun loosened his grip on her slightly, but before letting go, he kissed her cheek.
"Hehe, Senior Sister, this is my Sister Tang Yue. She is also the guardian of the totem beast I told you about."
Zu Qingyun hugged Tang Yue from behind and brought her to Yu Shishi's side.
Upon seeing this scene, Yu Shishi's eyes revealed a hint of surprise.
After all, this was the first time she had ever seen her incredibly powerful younger brother, Qingyun, be so proactive with a girl.
Soon after, Zu Qingyun introduced Yu Shishi to Tang Yue.
"Sister Tang Yue, this is Yu Shishi, a moth maiden whose strength is comparable to a high-level master cultivator, and also the guardian of the totem beast Moon Moth Phoenix."
Not long after, in the room in the center of the island in the lake.
"Qingyun, do you mean that Yu Shishi and Little Moon Moth Phoenix will live on the island in the middle of the lake from now on, and she will also control the moth swarm to protect this place?"
After hearing Zu Qingyun's words, Tang Yue's eyes flashed with a sharp light. In her opinion, there was absolutely no problem with this matter!
On the other side, the Imperial Capital Magic Association.
"I'm sorry, Commander, I didn't know you were here."
A newly appointed female secretary, dressed in a retro Chinese-style uniform, bowed to a middle-aged man in military uniform.
"Grand Speaker, the matter of asking Jiang Shaojun to search for the totem beast has been sternly rejected by his father, Chief Jiang Tianchen, and his cousin, Jiang Shaoli. After all, he almost died in Bailing when he was searching for the Moon Moth Phoenix."
Upon hearing his secretary's words, a hint of embarrassment appeared in Shao Zheng's eyes. After all, searching for totem beasts was inherently dangerous, and a single misstep could lead to utter ruin.
After Jiang Shaojun, he sent several high-level and even super-level mages, but in the end, they all disappeared without a trace, neither alive nor dead.
In fact, he also had someone in mind, namely Zu Qingyun, who led their National Team to victory this time.
However, the other party's identity was indeed sensitive. He had mentioned it to the old man Zu Hengyao a few times, but the other party's attitude was very firm, which led to the search for the totem beast being put on hold for more than half a year.
"We'll talk about this later. Is there anything else?"
Upon hearing Shao Zheng's words, the secretary nodded.
"It's like this, you asked me to keep an eye on Su Lu's movements. According to reliable sources, he seems to be searching for the totem beast's whereabouts. We haven't found out his exact location yet, but judging from his behavior, he seems to be in a hurry."
A quarter past ten in the morning.
Inside the office of Judge Tang Zhong at the Lingyin Temple Trial Court.
"Yu Shishi, your physique and abilities are somewhat special, but since you were introduced by this kid Qingyun, I won't ask any more questions. From now on, even if you become the vice-judge of my Lingyin Temple Tribunal, your main task will be to protect the island in the middle of the lake and prevent outsiders from invading the Three Springs Reflecting the Moon."
Tang Zhong was not one to mince words. After learning about her basic ability to control moths and Zu Qingyun's guarantee, he directly stated his conditions and requirements for her.
He paused for a moment after saying this.
"However, this matter cannot be told to outsiders for the time being. Recently, that paranoid guy Su Lu has been searching for information about totem beasts. If he finds out about your existence, his extreme methods may be detrimental to you."
Upon hearing Tang Zhong's instructions, a look of doubt appeared in Yu Shishi's eyes.
"Su Lu? Who is he? Is he very strong?"
In response to his three idiotic questions, Zu Qingyun flicked her forehead.
"Boom!"
"Ouch!"
Seeing this, Tang Yue covered her mouth and chuckled.
"Lightning, curse, and summoning spells—three forbidden spells in total, and he's also an Asian magician councilor. Do you think he's strong?"
It's worth noting that Su Lu is considered a boss-level character. In the original story, if the Black Dragon Emperor hadn't rebelled after regaining consciousness later, the plot might have ended much earlier.
"You naughty little brother Qingyun, don't you know how to be gentle with your sister? It hurts!"
However, although he said that, he was still very fortunate in his heart.
After all, she had arrived in Hangzhou ahead of time and had Tang Zhong, the presiding judge of the Lingyin Temple Tribunal, and the Xuan Snake totem as her protectors.
As long as she leisurely lies on the island in the middle of the lake and develops, there shouldn't be any major problems.
In fact, if she had known earlier that Hangzhou was so safe, she would have abandoned Bailing and brought the moth swarm and Little Moon Moth Phoenix here to be a useless layabout.
"By the way, Tang Yue, Qing Yun, you two shouldn't summon the Xuan Snake recently. The Parthenon Temple somehow got information that the snake demon among the Supreme Monarchs who destroyed the Sacred Mountain was the totem Xuan Snake."
"However, the situation was too chaotic at the time and they couldn't confirm it, but I think it's best to be cautious."
