Chapter 192: False Oracle, True Oracle
"Who?"
Yuhuo's voice came out, and he was very alert: "Meeting in the middle of the night... isn't it bad?"
Could it be Xie Ziye, Ji Qiuyu and those brats?
If it were them, they would rather let them wait for a night!
Yuhuo’s question was soon answered.
Ji Qingzhou tore open a short-distance teleportation talisman and arrived at the center of Wenxiu City in an instant.
City Lord's Mansion.
Ji Qingzhou swept her spiritual sense and found the person she was looking for. She shrunk the distance into an inch, landed in an empty yard, and knocked on the door of the study.
There were footsteps inside the door, and then the other party opened the door.
A dignified middle-aged woman in a black satin robe and a purple-gold crown on her head stood behind the door.
She was not surprised to see Ji Qingzhu coming to her house late at night.
It would be better to say that she was waiting for someone to come looking for her.
"Abandon the city lord."
Ji Qingzhou smiled at her.
The Lord of Wenxiu City, Qi Mingyue.
When she first arrived in Wenxiu City, Qi Mingyue hosted them and booked a restaurant for dinner.
However, he had to attend to official business when he left Mingyue. After appearing briefly, he had to attend to urgent matters.
"Fellow Daoist Ji, please come in."
Qi Mingyue gave way.
After Ji Qingzhou entered the room, Qi Mingyue closed the door and turned to look at her, his eyes slightly darker: "I thought... it would be Brother Xiao who would come to visit today."
"If nothing unexpected had happened, I would have invited her to come here with me today."
Ji Qingzhou looked at Qi Mingyue and said, "But I am enough."
"Indeed, although Fellow Daoist Ji is young, he is a Jindan cultivator."
As Qi Mingyue spoke, a long knife appeared in her hand. She drew the knife and walked towards Ji Qingzhou.
"What does she want to do to you?"
Yuhuo saw Qi Mingyue's serious expression and awe-inspiring temperament, holding a knife and approaching Ji Qingzhou. He felt that the atmosphere in the room became tense.
"Shh."
Qi Mingyue handed the handle of the knife to Ji Qingzhou with both hands.
She said calmly, "You alone can easily kill me and arrest us criminals."
Ji Qingzhou looked at the hilt of the knife she handed over, and the surprised voices of the monsters in the chat group rang in his ears.
Yuhuo: "I thought she wanted to fight with you, but she actually wants you to kill her?"
Bald Chicken: "You just met once, why did she..."
Undead Tree: "Wait, could it be that..."
"I didn't expect the city lord to be so straightforward."
Ji Qingzhou looked at the hilt of the knife within reach, but did not reach out to take it. Instead, he looked at Qi Mingyue and met her determined eyes, "You didn't even say a word to defend yourself."
"Although I am not from a sect, I also know the rules of the righteous sects that clearly distinguish between good and evil. Since Fellow Daoist Ji has come to me, he must have known what I did."
Qi Mingyue did not retract the long knife. She kept handing the knife over and said slowly, "I have privately executed mortals before, which violated the rule that cultivators cannot kill mortals indiscriminately. According to the rules of the Three Sects and Nine Gates, I should be sentenced to death."
After hearing Qi Mingyue's words, the people chatting became even more confused.
Yuhuo: "No... She has only met you once, how can she be sure that you know everything?"
Bald Chicken: "If Red Moonlight didn't know, she wouldn't have come to our door... We are the only ones who don't understand the situation."
Immortal Tree: "I was just guessing, but I didn't expect..."
Rebellious Little Black Bug: "Xiao Hong, what on earth is she talking about?"
Listening to the monsters asking questions one after another, Ji Qingzhou finally spoke: "When I first came to Wenxiu City, the boat girl told me about the ancient legend of Wenxiu City."
"Many years ago, an immortal appeared in Wenxiu City and gave a divine oracle, saying that only women can be in charge of Wenxiu City. If a man is allowed to be in charge, it will be unlucky."
"In the beginning, some people didn't take it seriously and advocated that men should be the head of the family. As a result, the oracle of the immortals really came true. When men become the head of the family, their wives and children will be separated at best, and their families will be destroyed at worst."
"There are many such examples. Over time, Wenxiu City no longer dares to let men be the head of the family."
Ji Qingzhou slowly told the words she had heard from the boat girl, "Mortals know very little about cultivating immortals, so they are superstitious about the existence of omnipotent immortals in the world. But we cultivators understand that the so-called immortals are just more powerful cultivators, just like us."
Qi Mingyue listened to Ji Qingzhou's words silently without saying a word.
Ji Qingzhou said: "I followed Fellow Daoist Xiao to a secret realm. In that secret realm, I saw the old Wenxiu City, and also saw the 'immortal' who had once sent down an oracle in Wenxiu City."
Hearing this, there was a slight ripple in Qi Mingyue's eyes.
Ji Qingzhou looked at her and said slowly: "That immortal is just a mortal woman who was persecuted by a man."
When mentioning Wen Gaofei, Ji Qingzhou's voice became a little lower.
"She didn't want any other woman to be like her, deprived of the right to study, locked up in a high-walled courtyard, and become a narrow-minded bird with broken wings, unable to resist the men who stole her broad life and wanted to treat her as an object and continue to exploit her to death."
"So, she sacrificed herself to obtain power that did not belong to her, took control of the entire Wenxiu City, and slaughtered all the men who were unworthy of her wife and daughter."
"She pretended to be an immortal and sent down an oracle, telling the people in the city that only women can be in charge of Wenxiu City, not men, otherwise there will be bad luck."
"Put the power decision back in the hands of women."
"After doing all this, she closed herself off and fell into a deep sleep."
Ji Qingzhou whispered: "But many years later, in Wenxiu City, the oracle she falsely spread is still fulfilled."
When a man is in charge of the household, misfortune will come to him.
The false oracle actually came true.
Ji Qingzhou said: "I originally thought that this place was so special because it was blessed by heaven."
The one who protected the women of Wenxiu City was not heaven, but a weak mortal woman thousands of years ago.
"I thought that such a miracle could not be man-made."
Ji Qingzhou stared at Qi Mingyue and said slowly: "Now it seems that I was too arrogant and underestimated the power of mortals, right? Lord Qi."
"Fellow Daoist Ji, since you have seen the past of Wenxiu City, do you know the origin of my city lord's lineage?"
Qi Mingyue, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke.
Ji Qingzhou shook his head: "I only saw Gao Fei - the mortal woman who falsely spread the oracle and caused chaos in the entire Wenxiu City."
"Miss Wen enlightened a group of prostitutes in the Wen Mansion and gave them powerful strength, allowing them to destroy the Red House that harbored filth and persecuted countless women, and liberated many sisters in it."
Qi Mingyue said: "Wenxiu City was in chaos overnight. The city lord, who was just a drunkard, had his head chopped off by his wife. His wife was also a cultivator. Seeing the chaos in Wenxiu City, she became the temporary city lord and took charge of the situation."
"It was at that time that some sisters who escaped from Hongfang came to find the new city lord."
"Among the group of prostitutes who were enlightened in Wen Mansion, there were a few who still retained their sanity. Led by them, the sisters from Hongfang met the new city lord and told her the truth about the chaos in Wenxiu City overnight."
Qi Mingyue's voice was neither fast nor slow, and every word fell on people's hearts, yet carried a heavy weight.
"After the new city lord learns the truth, he will make the next decision—"
"She wants to turn Miss Wen's false oracle into a true oracle."
"The lineage of the city lord is the one who carries out the divine oracle and executes the divine punishment!"
