Chapter 186 The slap was too light.
After reporting to the authorities, Gu Meng and his two companions lost interest in continuing their sightseeing and decided to head back home.
On the way back, when passing by a roadside stall, I ate a serving of glutinous rice balls and didn't forget to bring two servings for Jing Shu and Han Luo.
They laughed and joked all the way back to the house, and it was already late at night.
"Master! Senior Brother! Are you back? We brought you Yuanxiao (sweet rice balls)~" Gu Meng called out with a smile as soon as she entered the house.
Upon hearing this, Jing Shu looked up at the three people who had just entered through the door, or more precisely, at Gu Meng.
Gu Meng's smile faltered. "Senior brother, the way you're looking at me is so strange. Is there something on my face?"
As she spoke, Gu Meng touched her face; there was nothing there…
And why does Master look angry again?
The two who came in later also sensed that something was wrong.
"Well, we'll head back to rest now." Jingyou placed the glutinous rice balls on the table and prepared to leave.
But Jing Shu's words kept him there.
"My master and I have encountered evil cultivators..."
"What?!" the three exclaimed in unison.
A hint of regret flashed in Jingyou's eyes. "It's a pity we're not here."
However, running into my brother and master is really unlucky...
Jing Shu continued, "We only encountered one, but I used some special methods to find their lair, and then my master and I took down that stronghold for them."
"The lair? Is it that evil cultivation organization?" Shi Chuan asked.
Jing Shu nodded. "Yes, that mansion also has a barrier to prevent spiritual energy from detecting it. No wonder we haven't noticed it even after staying here for so many days."
"Then...why did Master..." Gu Meng looked at Han Luo, who was radiating a chilling aura, and couldn't help but ask the question.
"Meng'er," Han Luo finally spoke, "when we finished killing the evil cultivators, we encountered your biological father."
Gu Meng was stunned. "Huh?"
Jingyou and Shichuan were also taken aback. Just like that, they ran into each other?
Gu Meng was stunned for only a moment before she realized what was happening, and her eyes narrowed slightly.
"Is he connected with heretical practitioners? Or is he a heretical practitioner himself?"
"Master, if he's an evil cultivator, don't show mercy. If you're worried about Mother's health when she wakes up, I'll kill him myself!"
Seeing that Gu Meng was about to personally kill her own family if she continued, Jing Shu quickly said, "Meng'er, your biological father is not an evil cultivator and has no relation to them. If there is any relation, it is that he came to kill them."
"Oh," Gu Meng said in a muffled voice. "And then what happened?"
"He introduced himself as the regent of this dynasty, named Bei Yan'an. He knew that some ministers within the dynasty were using commoners to support evil cultivators, but he had never been able to find out where the evil cultivators were hiding. He had just received the news and rushed over when the evil cultivators had already been wiped out by my master and me."
He had intended to invite us to his residence to express his gratitude, but…”
"I slapped him," Han Luo continued, picking up where Jing Shu left off.
“Slapping this kind of scumbag who abandons his wife and children and is all sanctimonious is too lenient.”
More than ten years ago, when Han Luo saw her friend barely clinging to life, her eyes filled with reluctance to part with her daughter, and she even asked Han Luo to help raise her daughter, a fire had been burning in her heart.
If it weren't for Jing Shu back then, Gu Yue would have been gone long ago. Even so, Gu Yue has been lying in the ice until now.
When Han Luo saw Bei Yan'an, how could he not be angry? So after slapping him, he pulled Jing Shu away.
Otherwise, Han Luo might do something even worse than slapping someone.
Jing Shu didn't reveal that his master's slap not only shattered Bei Yan'an's protective spiritual energy but also sent him flying a great distance, embedding him in the wall...

Junmo: If one day your senior brother and your little Daoist partner both fall into the water, who would you save?
Han Luo (glancing at Jun Mo indifferently): I'll jump into the water too.
Junmo: Why?
Hanluo: They'll all come to save me when they see me fall into the water. Then we can pull them all out together.
Junmo: ......
Fu Huaizhi & Jing Shu (giving a thumbs up): As expected of junior brother/master!
