1652: Monsters 2

Monsters 2

"Why not just make use of them now, for our benefit," Elder Qianji said reasonably. "The court won't help them, so in a few days, there will be more people who are hurt by the monsters. The Phoenix Girl will have no solution, and will lose her reputation among the civilians who might even want to get her away from this place. By that time, the Phoenix Girl will have no choice but to make a deal with us using the Golden Rolls!"1

"…"

"Wuxing, you are too young and soft-hearted. That is not good. We will be affected, Piaomiao Pavilion and our interests will both be affected," Elder Qianji said, unhappily.

Obviously, Elder Qianji was not happy about Wuxing's suspicion.

Wuxing nodded and said nothing more. He had been concerned, because he was human and if the capital was occupied by monsters, it would not be good for them, but what the Elder said made sense.

They might not be able to get the Golden Rolls at this moment if they stepped forward now. So they had to wait.

The court never asked about the wounded civilians, nor was there anyone who stepped forward to help.

In the meanwhile… the Phoenix Girl was claimed to be false. It was just a conspiracy between her and the Monk from the temple. Otherwise she would never have become top of the world when she was a disgraced lady from the Gu Mansion.

If she were a Phoenix Girl, she would have protected the civilians from the Saint Divine Land, but after the Phoenix Girl appeared, things constantly happened to the Saint Divine Land.

The rumor spread everywhere in the capital.

Many people started to believe the rumor, when they thought of the monsters' attack the day before.

After all, the Phoenix Girl had been a very holy being in their heart, and they were not convinced that they were denied like this.

Moreover, part of the rumor was not wrong, so people started to talk vividly and excitedly about this.

On the way from Xinlin Mansion to the clinic, people outside the wagon talked about this. Soon, Gu Chaoyan realized what was going on.

"Elder Miss, how can they do that?!" Sword One was very angry.

Elder Miss was forced to be the Phoenix Girl, to open the door to enchantment, and to give them blessings. The court did not care about the incident, yet the civilians did not blame the court, they blamed Elder Miss instead.

And they were saying that it was Elder Miss' conspiracy.

Elder Miss had not taken a good rest since the day before, because she was worried about the monsters' appearance.

"It is fine. It was bound to happen. We are all weak in front of monsters, and they hope the Phoenix Girl can solve everything that comes at them. That is why they are angry. What we need to do is to solve the monster issue. When we solve it, we will break the rumor. Come with me to the clinic, then we will go into the court and inform the King about the monsters," Gu Chaoyan said seriously.

Sword One quieted down.

At the clinic, many people were gathering there, and pointed at Gu Chaoyan when she got out, whispering among themselves.

Gu Chaoyan ignored them and went into the clinic…

She felt better when she saw that the wounded were all doing well.

Gu Chaoyan was about to go into the court when some other news arrived.
