Just as Lin Wen turned around and left, the Deputy Finance Director next to him complained, “Are you an idiot? Who are you to ask about County Head Lin’s connections? Great, now our position in County Head Lin’s heart has dropped again!”

The director said unhappily, “We’re in charge of finance, if we don’t even know where the money came from, what else can we do?”

“Are you sure you can do it?” The deputy director was furious. “County Head Lin said that this is the reconstruction funds that the Empire has specially distributed!”

“But this is against the rules! Why would the Empire send cash to the county governor? F*ck, there’s gold! This doesn’t make sense. I’m going to look for County Head Lin!”

The deputy director was about to go crazy. “Old Lei! Are you f*cking stupid?! He already said that it was for reconstruction after the disaster. County Head Lin has already given you the money, so what are you still suspecting? Did he give you the money he embezzled to rebuild the homes of the refugees? Do you think County Head Lin is as stupid as you?”

Director Lei was at a loss for words.

As the deputy director called for his employees to count the money, he started muttering crazily, “Old Lei, oh Old Lei, you don’t believe me when I say that your brain is like granite. You have to be smarter. Otherwise, with your status as an elite graduate of the Empire’s Finance University, how could you have stayed here for more than ten years?”

Director Lei’s face darkened, but he did not say anything. He only put on his gloves and took out the gold pieces one by one, weighing them carefully and arranging them.

“County Head Lin said that he pulled some strings! Do you think you have the right to question the strings of that level? How many times have I told you that when the boss gives you a task, just say that you can leave it to me. Don’t question it and don’t ask any questions.”

“And this time, when the new county governor came, you insisted that there was no need to curry favor with him and let nature take its course. In the end, he joined Baldy Li’s faction. In less than three days, the new county governor was given the Commissioner’s Power. Are you dumb now? You said that it’s not important and that we should just do our own things. Let me tell you, if it wasn’t for me crying in the county governor’s office that day, we would have all packed up and left!”

Director Lei suddenly asked, “Why hasn’t Li Tupo left yet?”

The deputy director was so angry that smoke was coming out of his nostrils. “That’s the director of the county hall! He’s two levels higher than you! Are you the boss? Besides, Li Baldy won’t be able to hold on for much longer. At most, he’ll pack his bags and get lost in a month! I say, Old Lei, with your EQ, if you had given me the position of director earlier, I would have taken off with the finance department!”

“I’m serious. On account of our friendship of more than ten years, you should agree!”

Director Lei shook his head. “Your thoughts are not right. Without me watching out for you, you will make mistakes.”

The finance department was in chaos again. In a hotel not far away, Yuan Zhimen, the deputy director of the county governor’s office, had already finished his bidding. Fatty Zhang and the others had gotten their wish and were excitedly taking their luxurious business car back to the governor’s office to complete the final procedures.

The road that led out of Huai Town had long since been worn out. On both sides of the road were tall mountains and precipitous ridges, but this only made Fatty Zhang and the others even more excited. The spacious inside of the car had long become chaotic and unsightly.

Fatty Zhang cursed as he drove, “B*tch! Give me some strength. Didn’t you eat today?”

The person behind said with a strange smile, “Then feed her well, Old Zhang!”

“Be more tolerant, Old Zhang. This is the best you can find here.”

Fatty Zhang’s face flushed red as he panted heavily, “One day, one day, I want, I want, oh oh oh oh!”

With a loud bang, Fatty Zhang braked. The car was in chaos.

“Aiyo, Old Zhang, what are you doing?”

“I almost broke it!”

Fatty Zhang scolded, “Did I tell you to stop, bitch!”

Then she said, “I think I bumped into someone.”

“You did?”

“Who did you bump into?”

“The car was too fast for him to survive, right?”

“Let’s go, let’s go. This is the wilderness. Hitting someone is nothing.”

“Serves him right for walking in the middle of the road! Let’s go, we don’t have to waste money on compensation.”

The luxury car started again and drove along the mountain road.

In the back of their car, on the gravel-covered mountain road, a human body slowly evaporated, leaving behind a human figure made of straw and a flattened piece of hard-shelled paper.

Not far away, on the mountaintop, in the strong wind, Lin Wen, who was wearing a Horned Dragon cloak, muttered softly, “Paper moon hanging in the sky. Close.”

Paper Moon Hanging in the Sky

It was a white Core Formation Stage spell that consumed 15% of one’s Soul Essence. When the paper moon rose, anything illuminated by the paper moon would be covered by the illusion. In this world, it could last for an hour and be paused.

The Aura Observation was still ongoing. In his eyes, the aura of the seven people had turned completely black.

“You’re all dead.”

Lin Wen’s cold expression did not change at all. At this moment, he looked more like an immortal who was in charge of life and death.

Divine Movement Technique

It was a green Qi Cultivation Stage spell that consumed 10% of the Soul Essence to obtain the effect of Divine Traversal. It would last for 16 hours.

As he had used Riding Clouds to fly to the top of the mountain, he no longer had the power of his Soul Essence.

Lin Wen directly used 13 points of Kindness to activate this spell.

Suddenly, he felt that his body was as light as a fairy. With a tap of his foot, he flew dozens of meters through the wind.

But that wasn’t enough. He needed another combat spell.

Considering the danger he might encounter, Nine Bulls and Two Tigers would not work. Lin Wen searched quickly and locked onto a spell.

Forbidden Spiritual Force

Its color was between white and light gray, and it was a Core Formation spell that consumed 25% of the Soul Essence. The whole body was blessed with good luck. It was impervious to fire and water, invulnerable to swords and spears, extremely light, and could last for an hour.

Lin Wen used 33 points of Kindness and activated his magic.

Good!

Lin Wen felt his soul boil. This was the feeling of cultivating.

With a leap, he flew down from the hundred-meter mountain peak.

With a bang, Lin Wen bent his knees slightly. His figure was steady and he was not injured at all. His cloak fluttered in the wind, as if an immortal god had descended into the world.

Lin Wen looked up, his eyes narrowed as he looked into the distance.

The car was long gone. The sky was dim and night was about to fall.

“Trying to escape?”

Lin Wen sneered and tapped his foot. In the blink of an eye, his speed had exceeded 200 miles per hour.

The strong wind blew at him, but he need not close his eyes. His normal clothes were torn, and only his cloak swayed in the strong wind, completely unaffected.

“I see you!”

Under the dim light of the night, the black car drove along the winding mountain road like a coffin. It was neither fast nor slow. Clearly, they were fearless.

Lin Wen stomped his feet and shot forward like a cannonball, crossing the bottomless cliff and landing on the right wheel of the car.

Lin Wen didn’t have a sword on him, only a metal rod he picked up from the road. He took out the metal rod and shouted.

“Watch my sword!”

The sword pierced through the right tire.

The car lost control and rolled towards the cliff.

Lin Wen grabbed the A pillar of the car with one hand, and with a backhand, the car spun and crashed into the mountain wall.

Lin Wen went up and pulled down the car door. While the people inside were still dizzy, he pulled out a few naked ladies and knocked them unconscious before placing them by the side of the road. Then, he pulled the car’s B pillar again and shouted.

“The immortal is wielding his sword to exterminate demons on this inky mountain!”

The veins in his right hand bulged as he used all his strength to throw the car outward. Like a javelin in an athlete’s hand, the car flew straight into the sky and landed on a bottomless cliff.

Lin Wen wouldn’t make any careless mistakes. He settled the girls down, jumped off the cliff, and personally confirmed that they were dead before returning.

The auras of the young ladies were mixed with green, yellow, and green. Occasionally, there would be a wisp of black aura, but it would disappear in an instant. They were obviously not something that could be hurt. They did not know much, and it was impossible for them to see his face.

Even though there might be some loopholes, it didn’t matter. He just needed to bring them back and settle them down.

He took off his torn clothes and covered them with the broken pieces. However, there were too few clothes and the spring wind was still blowing. Lin Wen had no choice but to tie them up and wrap them in the big cloak. He carried them as gently as he could on his shoulders and ran back to Huai Town.

After making sure that no one was watching, he sneaked into the inn that he had booked and placed the ladies on the big bed. After checking that there were no major injuries other than a few scratches and ligature marks, Lin Wen covered them with a blanket and swaggered back.

Lin Wen didn’t have the time to check his spending and results until he returned to the mayor’s office.

The Power of Soul Essence had been used up. There was only 2% left. The Kindness had been reduced by a total of 46 points.

There were still three spells left.

Heart of Seven Orifices: 1 hour 11 minutes.

Aura Observation: 3 hours 22 minutes.

Paper Moon Hanging in the Sky: 56 minutes.

He had killed seven demons. One demon yielded three Kindness points, giving him a total of 21 Kindness points.

Kindness loss: 25 points.

The rebuilding had yet to begin. This was a long-term project. As long as his money helped the refugees, Kindness would continue to flow.

“Looks like this is the most important part of my job,” thought Lin. “I need to ensure that the administration is running smoothly and that the reconstruction is in order. Otherwise, won’t my money be wasted?”

At the thought that a large amount of Kindness was about to enter his account, the bit of fatigue in Lin Wen’s heart immediately disappeared.

“No, I have to quickly establish order and supervise them!”

He immediately changed his clothes and stood up.

“Every cent of my hard-earned money has to be spent wisely!”

“If anyone wastes my 25 points of Kindness for nothing, I will make sure that they won’t see the sun tomorrow!”
