"Hahaha..."
Feng Shaoqing narrowly escaped death, his face full of wild joy. He gritted his teeth and said, "Hmph, in the Great Xuan Dynasty, royal authority surpasses divine authority. No matter how you put it, the Night Patrol Deity belongs to the City God Temple; how could it harm a court official..."
He became somewhat carried away with himself, but he didn't notice that the Hu Family woman, who had wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and stood up, wasn't listening to his rambling. Instead, she looked towards a dark alley on the left and cupped her hands, saying, "Thank you, Daoist friend, for your assistance. Why don't you show yourself?"
In the darkness, Li Yan tucked the Hook Paper into his chest and slowly stepped out.
Feng Shaoqing was too optimistic. This Night Patrol Deity had already been controlled by someone else, and wouldn't care about any court orders. The one who truly drove it away was Li Yan's identity as a Heavenly Official.
