Chapter 2382: Tang Xishu

Li Jiuhong is the Tower Master of Thunder Tower. For so many years, he has hidden his true self well. The old man’s appearance is just a clone, and many believe that he is the real Thunder Tower Master.

No one knows, always following not far from the clone, the Tower Master of Thunder Tower’s most prized disciple, is his true identity.

Originally, Li Jiuhong didn’t intend to come to the West Desolation. However, after something happened to Immortal Mountain, an old fellow approached him and asked him to put some pressure on Tang Ming.

There was no choice, since the old fellow had shown kindness to him. Hence, he had to come to West Desolation City to act as a City Lord.

After all, unlike those eight ambitious guys, as the only Tower Master from Jiulong Tower who enjoyed role-playing, he always liked to seek benefits for his subordinates.

So, the subordinates of the Thunder Tower Master are very loyal to him.

This is also why Lan Yancha learned that Li Jiuhong aimed to deal with Tang Ming and chose to support his actions.

“Uncle Li, you know my brother is not very capable. His two wives are much stronger than him. One can reach half the sky, my mother likes them so much that she can’t part from them. You’ve been here for so long, why hasn’t my brother come to trouble you yet?”

A girl in a black long dress walked over from not far away, sat by Li Jiuhong, and spoke coyly.

Li Jiuhong glared: “Do you have any idea how busy your brother is? If you hadn’t been adding trouble for your dad, he wouldn’t have sent you here. Now that you’re with me, I won’t spoil you. Tell me, have you been bullying Lan Yancha again?”

The girl stuck out her tongue and then pouted and said, “Your cat is not fun at all, weak in strength but still so lazy.”

“He’s too old to be toyed with. Your strength is evident there, even for me, I’m afraid I’m not your match. This is Taoyuan World, not Immortal Mountain, be careful.”

Li Jiuhong’s mouth twitched a bit, this Tang family princess is quite different from Tang Ming, his eldest son.

The Tang family always raises boys with hardship and girls with wealth.

The treasures on Tang Xishu are even more than on Tang Mosheng, second only to Tang Mosheng’s wife’s treasures.

Back then, when Immortal Mountain fell, three Demon Monarchs attempted to capture this Little Witch, but she killed two of them and heavily injured the other.

“City Lord.”

The old steward walked in from outside.

This steward was originally from the City Lord Mansion; when Li Jiuhong arrived in West Desolation City, he only brought seven people with him, but each of these seven was extremely powerful.

Seeing the old steward come over, Li Jiuhong nodded, signaling Tang Xishu not to speak rashly, and smiled, saying: “What’s up, is there something going on?”

“The head steward of the City Lord Mansion asked me to inform you that West Continent City has notified you to attend a council meeting. This council will be attended by representatives from forces like the Niu Family, Twin Clan, Demon Slayer Clan, Fox Spirit Mountain Range, Jin Family, and others.”

The old steward looked at Li Jiuhong cheerfully, understanding well his ways.

Since Li Jiuhong’s arrival in West Desolation City, the changes and developments he brought caused West Continent City to be caught completely off guard, a fact observed closely by the steward.

Moreover, the old steward feels Li Jiuhong didn’t act rightly, thinking that Tang Ming did a commendable job as City Lord and that West Desolation City was indeed developing in the right direction.

Yet, after Li Jiuhong’s arrival, many things changed, moving West Desolation City’s development more steadily but deviating in many ways from Tang Ming’s original intentions.

It may seem insignificant, but upon closer thought, one will realize West Continent is a city, and West Desolation has become a city too, not a subsidiary.

“Alright, inform Fu San to accompany me then.”

Li Jiuhong nodded; Fu San is his trusted assistant.

He can grasp so much benefit thanks to Fu San’s contributions.

Fu San was once an extremely ruthless Poison Master who once destroyed a small kingdom for revenge.

Finally, he found himself under Li Jiuhong.

Initially, Li Jiuhong intended to eliminate this vicious woman, but later fell in love with Fu San.

The troubled Li Jiuhong didn’t know what path to take until he met Tang Mosheng at Immortal Mountain with Fu San.

It was Tang Mosheng who resolved their inner conflicts, bringing them together. Fu San also became much more cheerful because of Tang Mosheng’s wife.

Still, to this day, this woman likes male attire.

“Understood, City Lord. The head steward told me he’s found a good Immortal Chef for you. You’ll have a great dinner tonight.”

The old steward slightly bowed to Li Jiuhong, wearing a peculiar smile.

Li Jiuhong knows that Fu San’s caring looks strange to those who don’t know the truth.

After all, both dress as men, and Fu San, such a beautiful woman, always dresses as a rough big man.

“Alright, notify Fu San, don’t let him be too busy, come back early.”

Li Jiuhong nodded and waved to dismiss the old steward.

The old steward nodded, Tang Xishu could clearly see his lips moving before bursting into laughter: “Uncle Li, you and Aunt Fu always enjoy teasing the steward and guards like this, is it really okay?”

“It’s part of the fun, something you wouldn’t understand. My cultivation technique requires balance and surprises others. And your aunt looks too gentle and lacks authority, do you think if she showed her true face to manage this city, anyone would listen? Also, you’ll accompany me tomorrow.”

Li Jiuhong glanced at Tang Xishu and then remarked.

“Huh, am I going too, what if I get exposed.”

Tang Xishu looked at Li Jiuhong with surprise. Though interested in her brother, blood is thicker than water, fearing her identity might get revealed before Tang Ming.

If that happens, Li Jiuhong and He San’s prior efforts might be wasted.

“Rest assured, nothing will happen. I’ll say you’re my daughter.”

Li Jiuhong and Fu San, despite being closely connected and intimate, have no children. Among familiar people, only Mountain Ghost Granny is known.

Mountain Ghost Granny, being very smart, would understand Tang Mosheng’s painstaking intentions upon meeting him.

Tang Xishu excitedly jumped up: “Wonderful, at last, I’ll get to see my brother. Then, I’ll have him grant me a position too, staying in the City Lord Mansion all day is suffocating.”
