Chapter 411 - 211: Reunion with Lu Shiran (4)
"Back in the day, just like Senior Xu, I was a wanderer too. Then I met the previous Inspector, and he took me in. I’ve been content working here as a divine constable," Wan Guifeng sighed with emotion. "Hearing what Lord Li is saying now, it makes me yearn for the sect. Unfortunately, it might be too late for me."
"Why would it be too late? Inspector Wan isn’t that old. If you want to join a sect, you can have your master write a recommendation letter for you. Can’t you enter the Great Yuan Dynasty that way? If you’re not willing to go to the Great Yuan Dynasty, I can also write a recommendation for you to join my Mountain Ancient Land," Li Hengsheng said with a smile.
An Innate Powerhouse, no matter which sect, is always welcomed, the more the merrier. After all, reaching the Innate stage signifies a strong combat capacity.
This proposition truly tempted Wan Guifeng.
"Inspector Wan could consider it, but you still need the approval of your Inspector. Otherwise, I’d be stealing talent," Li Hengsheng chuckled.
Just then, a commotion was heard downstairs.
"Scram, scram, where’s this little thief from!"
"Stealing food, are you?"
"If you don’t get lost, I’ll beat you."
The shouting was chaotic, appearing to be more than one person.
Li Hengsheng was seated by the window and naturally glanced outside. As the Inspector of the White Snake Dao, he had noticed the number of street vagrants had drastically decreased. If he came across someone pitiful, giving them a meal was no big deal.
Upon looking down, he saw a person resembling a small beggar, face smeared black, dressed in rags, shoving a bun into their mouth as several restaurant staff tried to drive him away.
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, Li Hengsheng was stunned.
Why does this person look so familiar?
Despite the beggar’s soot-covered face and masculine clothing, Li Hengsheng immediately recognized them.
This...
Damn, Lu Shiran?
Li Hengsheng doubted his own eyes.
But no matter how he looked, it was indeed Lu Shiran!
"Sir, the shopkeeper instructed me to add a dish for you..." At this moment, the waiter entered, intending to serve more food at Li Hengsheng’s table.
He had just stepped in when he saw Li Hengsheng jump out of the window.
"Oh gosh, the Inspector jumped out the window!" The waiter was so startled that he dropped the dish onto the floor.
Wan Guifeng and the others were equally baffled. Why had Li Hengsheng leapt out of the building?
"Stop."
At that moment, Li Hengsheng quickly halted the restaurant guards.
Seeing that it was Li Hengsheng, they promptly stepped aside.
The little beggar, still voraciously biting into the bun, was startled by Li Hengsheng’s shout, then looked up at him.
"Husband, I found you."
Lu Shiran grinned broadly the moment she saw Li Hengsheng.
Li Hengsheng could hardly believe this person, looking like a beggar, was indeed Lu Shiran!
How bizarre!
Wasn’t she a disciple of Guanglan Palace?
Why would she appear here?
Moreover, how had she fallen to such a downtrodden state?
Wasn’t she at the Postnatal Perfection Realm as a martial artist?
At the very least, it shouldn’t be like this.
"It really is you." Li Hengsheng hurriedly went forward to help Lu Shiran up.
But at the moment of touching Lu Shiran, Li Hengsheng felt his heart tremble intensely.
What’s going on?
Li Hengsheng couldn’t feel Lu Shiran’s Divine Body anymore.
The Celestial Star Divine Body had vanished?
Not only was the Divine Body gone, but even Lu Shiran’s cultivation was entirely absent.
She seemed like an ordinary person.
What exactly had happened?
"I’m hungry."
Lu Shiran gazed expectantly at Li Hengsheng. "Husband, can you take me for a meal? It’s been four days since I last ate."
