What should they do when their superior’s superior’s superior discovered them while they were fishing at work?!
The expressions of the county bailiffs instantly turned deathly pale. They felt as if the clothes on their bodies were about to be stripped off.
Who would have thought that Her Highness the Princess would suddenly appear behind them?
Did they not say that the Princess was in Yuanying County or Yangqing County?
How did she mysteriously return to Qinghe County?
Furthermore, they were caught slacking off…
Hiss!
Just as they were at a loss for what to do and looked flustered, an official from the provincial government opened his mouth and asked, “What did you guys say just now? Repeat it to the Princess.”
Ah??
Were they not going to take off their uniforms and giving it up? In other words, they could still be bailiffs?
After realizing that things had taken a turn for the better, the bailiffs instantly became excited.
All of them started to talk. They fought to be the first.
After listening to these bailiffs talk for half a day, Fu Shuangni and the others roughly understood what they were discussing.
“In the middle of the night, from that Cultivator Bai’s house, a bright mystic light shot up into the sky?” A state official frowned. “What nonsense is this?”
A bailiff said weakly, “Sir, this really happened last night. Many people saw it. Not just us, even the commoners saw it.”
At this moment, Fu Shuangni suddenly said, “There are only two possibilities for such a phenomenon.”
Her short sentence attracted everyone’s attention. Immediately, she continued, “First, maybe there really is a secret treasure. Second, an Immortal cultivator broke through!”
The people from the provincial capital were stunned. They could not be bothered to listen to the bailiffs’ analysis, but the Princess’analysis made sense!
“Your Highness, if someone in Qinghe County broke through and caused such a breakthrough…”
An Immortal cultivator from the provincial capital was speechless, “Then what kind of stag edid he break through to? To cause such a commotion that everyone in Qinghe County could see it?”
“Golden Core!” Fu Shuangni said the most unbelievable two words in a calm tone.
Everyone present could not help but suck in a breath of cold air.
Even the bailiffs in the county office who were not even at the first level of Qi Refinement were the same. Although these bailiffs weren’t Immortal cultivators, they knew how powerful Immortal cultivators were.
After all, as bailiffs of the county, they had come into contact with many Immortal cultivators. They also knew the level division of Immortal cultivators.
In their eyes, Immortal cultivators in the Qi Refinement stage were already unreachable existences.
Immortal cultivators in the Foundation Establishment realm were already similar to Immortal gods.
Immortal cultivators in the Golden Core realm, hiss!
That was even harder to imagine!
Just two words could make people imagine that huge gap.
It was wide and unbridgeable!
“Your Highness, umm…” The officials of the state government who were more experienced said with a trembling voice, “You are saying that there are Immortal cultivators in Qinghe County who have broken through to the Golden Core stage?!”
That was a Golden Core!
A Golden Core Immortal cultivator, even in the state government, was a big figure that could not be reached!
Fu Shuangni nodded and said in a low voice, “Perhaps a Foundation Establishment cultivator broke through to the Golden Core stage, or perhaps a Golden Core stage cultivator broke through to a higher stage.”
She paused and continued, “It could be that Cultivator Bai, or it could be that senior Shu Zhihua.”
Everyone swallowed their saliva.
Little Qinghe County… Two Golden Core stage cultivators?
This… Was it really just a county? And not a huge city that could accommodate millions of people?
“Let’s go!”
Fu Shuangni paused and said, “Let’s go meet that senior Shu Zhihua.”
The officials were all stunned. The Princess wanted to come to Qinghe County to meet that Golden Core cultivator?
They were not unfamiliar with the name Shu Zhihua.
Shu Zhihua had helped them a few days ago and stopped a Golden Core demon that was about to break through to the Nascent Soul stage.
Fu Shuangni left the county office. She headed towards the house where Bai Yi lived. She felt that Shu Shihua should be there.
Fu Shuangni knew that the relationship between Shu Zhihua and Bai Yi was not simple. The two lived together.
If that cultivator Bai was also a Golden Core Immortal cultivator…
Then these two could be considered to be hiding in the city.
Perhaps this was a unique hobby between Golden Core stage cultivators, cultivating in the busy city.
Yes, it was indeed rare!
However, to Fu Shuangni’s expectations, before she came to the house where Bai Yi lived, she actually met the senior Shu zhihua that she was looking for!
That’s right, Fu Shuangni met Shu Zhihua on the way. Her memory of that beautiful face was still fresh in her mind.
On the other side, she was carrying an empty vegetable basket. If one ignored the wine gourd tied to her waist, Shu Zhihua, who was no different from an ordinary lady, also met Fu Shuangni and her group.
Shu Zhihua glanced at the Golden Core puppet not far behind Fu Shuangni and immediately retracted her gaze.
She placed her attention on Fu Shuangni.
She clicked her tongue and the corners of her mouth curled up, forming a teasing smile, she asked, “Looking at the Princess’s posture and the expression after seeing me, it seems like Her Highness is here to find me, right?”
