Chapter 47: The Xu Family Rules in Donghe County

3 min read625 words

The crisis facing the Xu family was alleviated by Xu Yan's formidable appearance, showcasing his superhuman abilities, which forced Xu Junhe to consider the subsequent matters.

Collaborate with the Heavenly Mother Sect and rebel together?

Xu Junhe dismissed this idea. The Heavenly Mother Sect's rebellion would not succeed; they lacked the right time, place, and people.

There was no need for his son to fight for others.

The Heavenly Mother Sect was not worthy!

Moreover, a more critical reason was that Xu Junhe understood his son.

Xu Yan was obsessed with the martial arts described in legends, and now he had actually achieved success in cultivation. He would inevitably focus more on his martial arts practice.

Rebellion would have a significant impact, leading to numerous trivial matters that Xu Yan would need to handle, which would delay his martial arts cultivation. This was not the life Xu Yan wanted.

Naturally, Xu Junhe did not want his son to be entangled in trivial matters.

Therefore, the issues arising from the crown prince's struggle originated in the capital, Jin'an, and Xu Yan needed to make a trip there to resolve them once and for all.

Suddenly, a long whistle sounded, coming from the direction of the Donghe County Magistrate's Office.

The Donghe County Magistrate turned around, his face changing repeatedly. Had the Magistrate's Office been captured?

Kou Ruozhi smiled and bowed to Xu Junhe, saying, "The Donghe County Magistrate's Office is now under the control of our Heavenly Mother Sect. From today on, I, Kou Ruozhi, am the Magistrate of Donghe County."

The Donghe County Magistrate's face changed drastically as he looked at Kou Ruozhi in shock and exclaimed, "You've even infiltrated the Magistrate's Office?"

Kou Ruozhi waved his feather fan and sneered, "You mediocre people are only favored by the昏庸老儿 of Qi. I merely used a bit of skill."

Looking down at the Donghe County Magistrate, he continued, "You wanted to catch us like fish in a jar, but did you know we were also waiting for this opportunity?"

At that moment, the sound of dense footsteps came from the street, and a large group of soldiers surrounded them, led by the Donghe County Lieutenant!

"Sir, the rebels have been captured."

The Lieutenant bowed before Kou Ruozhi.

He gestured backward, and a servant brought forward a set of official robes.

These were the robes of the Donghe County Magistrate.

Kou Ruozhi put on the robes and then took out a thin mask, which he placed on his face. Instantly, Kou Ruozhi's appearance was about 80-90% similar to the Donghe County Magistrate.

"Take these Heavenly Mother Sect rebels, who were masquerading as soldiers, and imprison them to await their punishment!"

Kou Ruozhi ordered.

His voice was almost identical to the Magistrate's.

Thud!

The Donghe County Magistrate fell to the ground in shock, staring at Kou Ruozhi and exclaiming, "You want to impersonate me?"

"Is there a problem with that?"

Kou Ruozhi chuckled.

The Lieutenant's men had already disarmed and bound the injured soldiers and were escorting them away.

"Change the clothes and the face of our Magistrate."

Kou Ruozhi instructed.

One of the Heavenly Mother Sect's experts came forward, stripped the Magistrate of his official robes, and dressed him in new clothes, then placed a mask on his face.

The Donghe County Magistrate now resembled one of the Heavenly Mother Sect's experts.

"Mr. Xu, what do you think?"

Kou Ruozhi asked with a hint of pride.

"Excellent skills!"

Xu Junhe praised.

"Mr. Xu, what do you think about our cooperation?"

Kou Ruozhi asked with a smile.

"Let's talk about cooperation when you have complete control over Donghe County."

Xu Junhe said calmly.

"Then, Mr. Xu, you wait and
