Realizing This Is Wuxia World After Cultivating For 300 Years
Chapter 249
Li Cheng and Li Wei were not too restricted in Changfeng Prefectural City. Besides not being allowed to leave the city, they could walk around freely. They could even ask locals for information, including information related to Cui Heng.
For example, when Cui Heng was the State Supervisor here, what government decisions he applied here, some of the main things what he did, and even his personality and likes.
Changfeng Prefectural City was once the place where Cui Heng ruled. It has left many legends among the people and produced some folklore. There are even many stories of him conquering demons and punishing evil.
During this information gathering process, Li Cheng and Li Wei gradually realized what kind of person Cui Heng was.
“New decisions everything from the point of view of ordinary people. He took the initiative to offend that noble family. There is actually such a ruler.” Li Cheng flipped through the various information he had recorded and clicked his tongue in astonishment.
“Not only that, this Cui Heng seems to directly be the enemy of the noble family for the sake of the common people, causing a direct confrontation.” Li Wei nodded and said, "There are hardly any such rulers in our world."
“Be more confident and get rid of the 'almost'.” Li Cheng chuckled. "There's no such thing at all, okay?"
Although the Chongyang Star was a cultivation planet with a strong cultivation atmosphere and many sects as well as aristocratic families, there were also many ordinary people.
These ordinary people formed the mortal world.
However, due to the restrictions of aristocratic sects and families, there was no government equal to the state in the Chongyang Star.
...
Normally, it was the aristocratic sects and families who managed the affiliate territories around them.
The rulers of various places naturally came from aristocratic sects and families.
Sects and families of high and mighty nobles, and they had many privileges.
Under such circumstances, there could be no ruler standing on the side of the common people and opposing sects and noble families.
Other than a few lucky ones among ordinary people, there was no chance of turning things around in life.
An administrator like Cui Heng, who implemented government decisions from the point of view of ordinary people, was very new to Li Cheng and Li Wei. That's unheard of.
“A hundred years ago, in order to carry out such a decision, Cui Heng even pushed himself to a state where the world was his enemy,” Li Cheng said while thinking. "If it wasn't for his extraordinary strength, I'd be worried that he would have long died without a grave."
"This Cui Heng is really wise and kind." Li Wei's eyes twinkled, and her face was filled with respect as she smiled like a flower. “Such people should have a gentle and kind temperament to others. I want to see him more often.”
"Ah? Then aren't we in danger? Li Wei's face turned pale with fear.
“Eh, not necessarily. Don't be afraid just yet.” Li Cheng hurriedly waved his hand and said, “From the information we have gathered now, this Cui Heng probably won't kill people randomly.
Moreover, he seemed to like collecting ancient items. We have many ancient treasures with a long history in our hands. We can give it to him as a gift. As long as we can leave a good impression on him, we can probably be comfortable with him.”
“Simple hugging thigh?” Li Wei slightly tilted her head and smiled. “My brother, I heard Mr. Cui is very handsome. Legend has it that he had the appearance of an Immortal. It is another world view. Do you want me to work hard and try?
Li Cheng was stunned when he heard this. Then, he replied on the spot and sneered, “Pfft! With your burly face, what kind of big man do you want?
"What did you say?!" Li Wei's eyes widened as he stared at Li Cheng in disbelief. She beckoned at her beautiful figure and pointed to her beautiful face. He gritted his teeth and said, "Tell that to my face again?"
The daily life between siblings is so boring
As the two of them were arguing, there was a commotion outside the residence. Sounds like a lot of people are gathered on the street outside.
"Let's see what's going on outside." Li Cheng took the opportunity to retreat and distance himself from his sister.
"Hgm." Li Wei crossed his arms in front of his chest and propped up his towering peak. He curled his lips and said, “I'll settle the score with you later. Come on out and see what happens.”
The brothers came out of the residence and saw there were ceremonial guards on both sides of the road. Countless commoners gathered on both sides of the road and looked around. They were all very happy to see the three people walking slowly. All three were middle-aged men in their fifties or sixties. Their clothes were also very ordinary, but their auras exuded an unfathomable feeling.
Especially the one in the middle, he was even more noble.
“This is Mr. Liu and Mr. Chen. Who came until the two of them left to greet him personally and even made such a huge commotion?" Li Cheng recognized Liu Litao and Chen Tong among the three of them. The one in the middle is very foreign.
In the past few days in Changfeng Prefectural City, he had learned that Liu Litao and Chen Tong's status was very high. Even if the current Emperor were to come, they probably wouldn't welcome him so grandly.
What the hell is going on?
However, Li Cheng quickly got an answer.
Not long after the welcoming ceremony, he received an invitation from Liu Litao, inviting him and Li Wei to attend the banquet that night.
