Chapter 156: Capital of Wu

Parting with Wendu and his wife, Ye Buwen took Lin Murong and Zhou Yi to the spiritless zone.

The injured monster Wendu and his wife refused.

So Ye Buwen had to go back and kill it.

A fifth-grade monster was worth his trip.

He also wanted to see what magical things a fifth-grade monster had, and whether it could be better than him.

…

In the capital of Wu, Ye Buwen turned into an ordinary person and revisited his hometown.

He had struggled here for a while, and he still missed it.

"Master, isn't that you?" Zhou Yi pointed to a huge sculpture.

Ye Buwen looked at the sculptures in the city in confusion. Who would be so kind as to build a sculpture for him?

He looked at the sculpture.

The sculpture looked like him, nearly 20 meters tall, wearing a luxurious imperial robe, a crown on his head, a book in his left hand, and a pillar knife in his right hand. He looked majestic and elegant.

"It's pretty good."

"Was this carved by my cheap father-in-law?"

Ye Buwen held his hands behind his head leisurely, wondering who carved this statue.

He guessed it was his cheap father-in-law, Li Minyun.

Besides him, who else could Ye Buwen think of?

After all, they were close, had the financial resources and ability, and needed to rely on him to stabilize the family's prestige.

After he left, power returned to the Wu family, and the situation of the Li family was not expected to be too optimistic.

The new successor was not a generous person.

After admiring his heroic figure, Ye Buwen's mood became very good, and he took the two women to eat and drink.

Zhou Yi was like a lively little girl.

She still had a special liking for luxurious and beautiful clothes and rouge products, and she would buy them like crazy when she saw something she liked.

"Master, don't you think this place is less lively than when you ruled?"

"When you were here, it was very lively, and there were many people in every store."

Zhou Yi chatted with Ye Buwen while shopping.

"It's normal. I didn't see any big projects along the way. There are fewer people working and having spare money, so naturally fewer people are buying things."

Ye Buwen only took a walk and knew the reason.

"Big brother, are you the Emperor Tianwu? You look like the sculpture of the Emperor Tianwu." A little girl ran to Ye Buwen and stared at his face.

The little girl's mother pulled the girl over and hugged her, saying, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

The girl's mother bowed to Ye Buwen apologetically, not daring to look directly at Ye Buwen's face.

"It's just a joke from a child, don't be angry, young master."

Ye Buwen waved his hand.

"It doesn't matter. Besides, this is not nonsense."

Zhou Yi smiled and pinched the little girl's face and praised, "You are still sharp-eyed and smart, and you can see the extraordinary heroism of the Emperor Tianwu at a glance."

"Reward you with delicious candy."

Zhou Yi took out a handful of fragrant candy from the storage bag and put it in the little girl's hand.

The little girl's eyes lit up when she got the candy, and she immediately stuffed the candy into her mouth.

"Beautiful sister, this candy is so fragrant and delicious."

"You are so sweet." Zhou Yi said with a smile.

The little girl's mother quickly bowed to thank him.

"Thank you, Miss."

"I am not a Miss, I am a maid, the maid of Emperor Tianwu."

Zhou Yi said with a smile.

After that, she returned to Ye Buwen and continued to stroll with him.

After Ye Buwen walked away, the little girl's mother raised her head with shock in her eyes.

What did the man and woman say just now?

That beautiful nobleman turned out to be Emperor Tianwu.

She actually met the real Emperor Tianwu.

"Mother, I'll give you candy, this candy is delicious."

The little girl's mother smiled and opened her mouth to eat the candy, and instantly a strong sweet smell filled her nose.

This is definitely the most delicious candy she has ever eaten.

Then, the little girl's mother felt that she was refreshed and her strength was much greater. Holding her five-year-old child was as light as holding air.

The little girl's mother was very sure that this was not a candy in the mortal world, but a divine object from heaven.

Now she was 100% sure of Ye Buwen's identity.

"Child, I'll save this candy for you, one a day, so you can eat it for a long time."

The little girl's mother took out a purse from her clothes, took out the coins and put them in the girl's hand, and carefully put all the candies in the purse.

At this moment, in her heart, candy is more important than money.

On the way back, the little girl's mother brought the girl to the statue, knelt down sincerely, and chanted: "Emperor Tianwu is holy, wise, and powerful, and his immortal life is endless."

The little girl followed suit and said in a baby voice: "Emperor Tianwu is holy, wise, and powerful, and his immortal life is endless. Please let my family have food and candy every day."

The little girl's mother patted the little girl's head and scolded in a low voice: "You are talking nonsense again."

"I'm not talking nonsense, that's what Dad said when he was worshiping."

The little girl's mother touched her head, this child really followed suit.

"Emperor Tianwu has already given you candy, you can't say that anymore. Emperor Tianwu will think you are greedy."

"Emperor Tianwu hates greedy people the most. If you are too greedy, Emperor Tianwu will arrest you and behead you, just like those corrupt officials."

"Mom, Emperor Tianwu will not be so cruel."

A passerby laughed and said, "Haha, the little girl is so smart at the age of five. She is really talented."

"But you are right, Emperor Tianwu will not be so cruel. He only kills bad people."

"And Emperor Tianwu never said that he hates greedy people the most. These are all distorted by the big guys to stop us from talking."

"Every time we complain that the wages are too low and the food is too bad, they say that Emperor Tianwu hates greedy people the most and wants us to be content."

As he spoke, the passerby sighed.

"If I had known earlier, I would have moved my family to Zhou State, maybe we could have lived a good life."

The little girl's mother thought about it and it seemed to be true.

The wealthy family where she worked often said this and didn't give her a raise.

...

On the street, Zhou Yi said happily: "That girl is so young and has clear articulation and bright eyes. If she is trained, she will definitely be a good business negotiator in the future."

Ye Buwen nodded in agreement.

"She is smart and talented in reading. With the Baimu Ling honey you gave her, she should be a wise person in the future."

"Master, do you think she will follow your path and seek immortals and ask for the way? She looks like a person with good spiritual roots."

"Who knows? Everyone has their own fate. Maybe a passing Jindan will take her as a disciple, like the ancestor of the Wu family."

Ye Buwen didn't take this episode to heart.

He just walked on the street, looking around everywhere, eating whatever he saw delicious, and buying whatever he was interested in.

Although he frequently attracted people's attention because of his temperament and appearance, no one spoke to him because he saw that Ye Buwen was wearing a black and golden cloud robe with excellent fabric and high value, and he was either rich or noble.

She was the only one who dared to ask him questions like a little girl, and the group walked on the street without causing any commotion.

Ye Buwen walked to his former mansion.

The gate there was closed, and there were many weeds in the yard due to lack of maintenance.

Ye Buwen felt very sorry that such a large and good courtyard was abandoned like this.

When Ye Buwen walked to his cheap father-in-law's house to sleep there for a few nights, he suddenly found that the father-in-law's family had changed.

Ye Buwen was a little confused.

It shouldn't be that the Li family changed people.

Could it be that the Li family's power was overthrown during the time he was away?

Is the new guy so cruel?
