Realm of the Night God

Yang Haoran was still the same as always, he liked to mix truth with lies when he lied, because he personally felt that such lies were more believable.

The words he said to Chu Jiu now were half true and half false. His acting was good, and it was also reasonable, so Chu Jiu did not doubt the truthfulness of his words.

If Yang Haoran had not made this explanation, not to mention whether Chu Jiu would harm Yang Haoran, but Chu Jiu would definitely have doubts in her heart afterwards.

After all, Yang Haoran was a Burial Master who took office at the same time as Xu Meijing. How could his strength be so formidable? This was completely abnormal.

Yang Haoran didn't even think about whether Chu Jiu would harm him or not. The reason he made himself so injured and said these words to Chu Jiu was to avoid exposing his true strength, so that no one would doubt his strength. Only in this way could he better keep the secret of the soul-refining cauldron.

Of course, if one day he succeeded in opening a shop in the underworld and his business grew bigger and bigger, he would not need to deliberately hide his strength at that time. After all, as a big boss with property in the underworld, getting soul pills would be as easy as pie. At that time, his strength would rise rapidly, and no one would question it.

But not now, now he was just a Burial Master who had been in office for only a few years.

With Yang Haoran's words, not only would Chu Jiu not have any doubts about this matter, but even if others knew about it, they would also find it difficult to have doubts.

At this time, Chu Jiu not only did not doubt Yang Haoran's words, but on the contrary, she felt guilty because of Yang Haoran's mention of help.

The Yin Division was in a high position, and many sects did not want to offend them, and even wanted to curry favor with them. But the Ancheng Yin Division was a little different.

Since Xu Meijing became the Burial Master of the Ancheng Yin Division, although the vast majority of the sects still did not dare to offend them, there were very few who wanted to curry favor with them, and this was all due to Xu Meijing's arrogant personality.

Because of her personality, Xu Meijing had offended many people in Ancheng, although they were not life-and-death grudges, but enough to make the other party feel unhappy.

Because they did not want to offend the Yin Division, these people did not dare to trouble her, but they kept their distance from her and her Night Watch.

It was precisely because of this that today, when the three spirit masters attacked the Death God Temple, Chu Jiu knew she was no match for them, but she did not ask for help, because she knew it would be difficult to find help. These people would not even stoop to kick them when they were down, let alone come to their aid.

Of course, if she begged other sects for help, there would certainly be people willing to lend a hand, after all, this was like bringing firewood in the snow, and in order to get on good terms with the Yin Division, there was no doubt that someone would put aside their previous grievances and come to help.

However, she dared not do so, because she was well aware of Xu Meijing's character. Once she did so, not only would Xu Meijing be very unhappy, but she would also be very disappointed in her.

So, whether it was before or after Yang Haoran's appearance, Chu Jiu had never thought of asking for any help, even if it meant fighting to the last man, she was not going to ask for any help, because she did not want to disappoint Xu Meijing, and she did not want to lose Xu Meijing's face, even if it meant sacrificing her own life.

The reason she felt guilty now was that she had never even thought of asking for help, while at the time, Yang Haoran had risked his life waiting for reinforcements to arrive. If he hadn't been lucky enough to encounter the Guardian Spirit's betrayal of the three, the outcome would certainly have been different.

The guilt in her heart made Chu Jiu unsure of what to say. She couldn't possibly tell the real reason, because she was afraid that this would make Yang Haoran have some negative views about Xu Meijing.

So she hesitated for a moment and only said three words to Yang Haoran in a low voice, and of course these three words were not "I love you", but "I'm sorry".

Why Chu Jiu apologized to herself, Yang Haoran was a little strange at first, but after thinking about it for a while, he understood.

The woman had said before that Xu Meijing had no friends in Ancheng and could not find any help when she was in trouble, and now it seems that this statement, if not entirely true, at least has some truth to it, because he still hasn't seen any help come to this place.

He knew Xu Meijing's character, so even if Chu Jiu didn't say it explicitly, he had an idea about it in his heart.

"There's no need to apologize, after all, the matter has now been dealt with."

Yang Haoran smiled and spoke, although he understood, he had no intention of pointing out some things.

Under Chu Jiu's lead, Yang Haoran came to a quiet room, where he first rested for more than an hour, fully refining the soul pill in his body. Afterwards, he washed the blood stains off his body and changed into a new set of clothes before leaving the quiet room.

In the Death God Temple, Chu Jiu had already started to be busy. With such a big incident, she had many things to deal with, even though the three spirit masters were already dead.

Yang Haoran found Chu Jiu, and Chu Jiu was a little puzzled to see that Yang Haoran had come out of the quiet room after resting for only more than an hour, and she was also a little worried. However, seeing that Yang Haoran's complexion was much better than before, her worry was reduced.

"Divine Envoy, why don't you rest a little longer in the quiet room?" Chu Jiu asked.

Yang Haoran smiled and replied, "I have other matters to attend to, so I can't linger here any longer. You can take care of the aftermath here."

Yang Haoran decided to leave, and of course Chu Jiu didn't dare to stop him. Before leaving, Yang Haoran gave Chu Jiu his contact information.

"I won't be leaving Ancheng for the time being, so if you have anything, you can call me immediately. Don't feel embarrassed, I'm different from the others, my relationship with Xu Meijing is very good."

Chu Jiu did not refuse and took Yang Haoran's contact information. Finally, under her respectful gaze, Yang Haoran tore open a space rift.

Since the women who had set up the barrier had all died, the barrier that had enveloped the Death God Temple naturally disappeared as well.

Just before stepping into the space rift, Yang Haoran paused and looked at Chu Jiu. The ful&l. s$eri-e%s+ li*ves. on My V&i&r.t#ua@l$ Lib$rary@ Em-p!i!re (M|V|.L0E!M%PY!R).+

"You've suffered heavy losses this time, and your manpower should be insufficient. How about this, I'll redeploy some people to come and help you, so that you can ensure your work can proceed normally."

Chu Jiu was extremely grateful for Yang Haoran's decision.

As Yang Haoran said, they had suffered heavy casualties this time, and with their remaining manpower, it would be impossible for the work of the Death God Temple to proceed normally. And with Xu Meijing not here, they were unable to recruit new Night Watch, which was indeed a big problem.

Yang Haoran made a phone call to Master Wu, asking him to dispatch some manpower to support Ancheng, and then sent Chu Jiu's contact information to Master Wu.

After doing all this, Yang Haoran stepped into the space rift and left the Death God Temple.

As for how Chu Jiu should handle the aftermath, Yang Haoran did not ask much, because in his view, since Chu Jiu was Ancheng's second-in-command, he should know how to handle it, so there was no need for Yang Haoran to ask about it.

The only concern he had was that someone might take the opportunity to cause trouble again, so he gave his contact information to Chu Jiu and instructed him to notify him immediately if anything happened.

The safest approach was for Yang Haoran to stay at the Death God Temple, so that if any emergencies occurred, he could deal with them in a timely manner.

However, he still had his own matters to attend to, and he could not stay at the Death God Temple indefinitely waiting for Xu Meijing to return, so leaving his contact information and having Chu Jiu notify him immediately if anything happened seemed like a good choice.

It's not like he would temporarily leave Ancheng, and even if he returned to Lecheng, he could quickly come to Ancheng to provide support, without wasting any time.

After leaving the Death God Temple, Yang Haoran headed to the place where Ma Ling had parked earlier, as the crisis in the Ancheng Yin Division had been resolved, and now he could focus on his own matters.

He had received several phone calls from Ma Ling after they parted ways, but at the time, he was engaged in a life-and-death battle with three spirit masters, so he didn't have the time to answer her calls. It was only when he was resting in the quiet room that he called Ma Ling back.

He did not mention the events that had occurred at the Death God Temple to Ma Ling, as it was not something to be proud of, and talking about it would be like slapping Xu Meijing in the face. Instead, he requested to visit Ma Ling's home.

To Yang Haoran's request, Ma Ling not only did not refuse, but was also very happy to agree, and told Yang Haoran that she would be waiting for him at the previous parking spot. Therefore, after leaving the Death God Temple, Yang Haoran directly headed to the meeting point with Ma Ling.
