Ning An's Wild Wish System

After instructing his team members, the lead police officer turned his head and politely said:

"Old man, besides her, there should be a male trafficker, right?"

The old man shook his head, "I don’t know, never seen him."

Damn!

The lead police officer immediately sensed something was wrong and quickly looked around.

Wherever he looked, the villagers were all scratching their heads and smiling innocently, as if this person never existed.

Some of the braver villagers even spoke up simply.

"Officer, you must be joking. We’ve never seen any man, only this woman came to our place."

"Yes, yes, with so many of us, how could we possibly lie?"

"Officer, you’re wronging us. If there really was a man who came here, wouldn’t we know? Would we hide him from you?"

"I can testify, only one woman came here, never seen a man. If you don’t believe me, ask her."

The villager was referring to the woman trafficker who had recently gone out more frequently.

The lead police officer turned to look and saw that she had already been tortured into unconsciousness, even half of her tongue was missing.

How the hell can she say anything?

"Alright, since that’s the case, I’ll head off for now."

The lead police officer naturally understood what was going on but was helpless.

He could only call his team members to lift the woman into the car, then stepped on the gas to leave the village first.

As they watched the police car drive away, the innocent expressions on the villagers’ faces disappeared.

The smile on the old man’s face turned cold and sinister, hoarsely saying, "They won’t let it rest, make sure to handle that man cleanly."

Immediately, a burly man patted his chest, "Don’t worry, old uncle, our village’s two fish ponds and that pigsty will ensure he disappears completely, leaving no evidence for the police."

"That’s good."

The old man nodded, his expression unchanged, as if this was an everyday occurrence.

"Alright, it’s over, everyone go home."

The sun was shining high over the village, yet there was no warmth felt.

...

Mountain and Sea Mountain Range, Shaoyang Mountain.

At the foot of the mountain, there is a town with a population of several thousand, still as it was before.

Like people in other places, the residents here also rely on the mountain for their livelihood.

Thanks to the developed local tourism industry, the entire village also prospered.

Life went on like this for more than a decade, the town’s residents not being very rich but at least free from worry over food and clothing.

However, the good days for the town came to an end last month.

The authorities suddenly announced that Shaoyang Mountain, which they depended on, was designated a military management area.

Except for special zones, town residents could still go up the mountain and gather herbs.

But aside from town residents, all other irrelevant people were prohibited from entering the mountain, otherwise they would face a military court!

This abruptly cut off the financial lifeline of the town’s residents.

Unable to tolerate it, they organized numerous petitions, whether to the town, the county, or even the city, seeking an explanation.

But wherever they went, local officials received them politely and sent them away politely.

These officials were powerless; the policy came directly from the Capital City, and they weren’t even provincial officials, what could they do?

Could they meddle with a red-letter document at their level?

...

"Dang!"

"Dang!"

In a quiet room on Shaoyang Mountain, Zhang Yuanyi was debating Daoist Skills with Lin Nanbei.

Hearing the sound of the bell, Lin Nanbei paused the debate, saluted, and said, "Fellow Daoist, let’s go to the hall for a meal, and continue the discussion afterwards."

"Alright, as it should be," Zhang Yuanyi also returned the salute, politely.

Zhang Yuanyi himself was an orthodox of the Zhengyi Sect, a Celestial Master from Dragon Tiger Mountain, skilled in Daoist Skills, with a distinguished status, no doubt about that.

Lin Nanbei, though a junior, had been cultivated by the government and had advanced no less on the Daoist Skills path, thus becoming a friend despite their age difference.

Of course, Zhang Yuanyi knew that this was an official implant, intended to facilitate the official control of this Daoist School.

Not only Zhengyi, but the Quanzhen side also had officials assigned, namely, Li Jingye.

The two walked out of the room, and the entire space was filled with quiet rooms.

Shortly after they left, there was movement in another quiet room, and two old Daoists with youthful appearances walked out.

The younger one’s skin was wrinkled, but his eyes were piercingly bright, each move carrying a sense of artistic conception. He was Song Liang, the Sect Leader of the Celestial Heart Sect.

"Senior brother."

Even though he was older in age, his rank was naturally lower than that of the Celestial Master of Dragon Tiger Mountain. On seeing Zhang Yuanyi, he immediately saluted.

"Junior brother, no need to be so formal. We’re all family. Recently in Daoist Skills training, have you gained any insights?" Zhang Yuanyi returned the question.

"I wouldn’t dare say insights. Coming to this place feels like a mayfly seeing the sun and moon, my heart feels insignificant."

After exchanging a few simple words, they headed to the dining hall together.

On the way, many Daoist Masters were wearing robes, with Yin and Yang blending, waxing and waning.

Though it seemed lively with these people coming and going, a closer look revealed a clear distinction between them, divided into two factions.

They were undeniably the Zhengyi Sect and the Quanzhen Sect.

Soon after the mutated fruits and vegetables were cultivated, the authorities promptly took action.

A single document was sent to the Daoist Sect across the world, demanding each sect select outstanding disciples and send them all to the Capital City for unified training by the authorities.

After carrying out some ideological work in the Capital City, they were sent to the Mountain and Sea Mountain Range, with Shaoyang Mountain as their deep cultivation site.
