Chapter 004: The Broom of the Celestial Realm (Part One)
Meanwhile, the heavens beyond the heavens
Rest assured! The Comet, after downing another cup of wine, said: "Chunyangzi, let me tell you, I have recently taken on a new disciple, who is a mortal. My position will be taken over by this disciple, as long as someone is cleaning in the Heavenly Court, who cares who the cleaner is?"
Tilting her head slightly, she saw two criminals nervously staring at the police outside the house. Feng Yufei was terrified and had collapsed to the ground. Gao Yang weighed the broom in his hand, contemplating that he could manage to take down one of the criminals, but if both attacked together, it would likely be impossible. Moreover, the other side was armed, and one wrong move could cost him his life
The man poured himself a glass of wine and then looked at the comet, saying: "Heaven's wrath, you have come to my realm without permission, do you not fear the Jade Emperor's wrath?"
It is only to be lamented that his cheap master did not leave him even a single decent magical artifact
You truly are generous; that sweeping broom capable of covering the sky was forged from your previous weapon, the Xuanjin Blade, which possesses immense power. Are you not afraid that your disciple might cause some trouble in the mortal realm
Rest assured, I have long made plans. The token I gave to my disciple was specially crafted by the Old Lord, ensuring that he has nothing to worry about! Additionally, I also gave him my sky-covering broom. With these two items, I believe those fellows in the Heavenly Court will not dare to act recklessly!
The girl said with a sobbing voice: "Two big brothers, I beg you to let me go! My father is very wealthy, no matter how much you want, he will give it to you. I implore you not to harm me!"
Dongzi chuckled twice, rubbed his hands, and said to Feng Yufei, "Miss, let's go!"
Gao Yang made a gesture for silence, then quietly pointed to a very concealed door nearby, indicating that this was an exit and that one could leave from here
The comet reluctantly withdrew its gaze, and only then did it glance at the man and say: "When has the Jade Emperor ever cared about me? I fear he would only be pleased if he could not see my heart!"
At that moment, Feng Yufei unexpectedly saw him, her eyes filled with shock, as if she could not believe that there was still someone in this convenience store at such a time
Lu Dongbin shook his head helplessly and said: "You have offended quite a few people in the Heavenly Court, it seems your disciple is in for some hardships!"
Having said this, he casually picked up a bottle of mineral water from the nearby shelf, opened it, and began to drink.
"What is there to be afraid of?" Brother Nan said with annoyance as he glanced at Dongzi, "As long as Miss Feng is still in our hands, the police outside will not dare to act recklessly"
It turns out that this imposing figure is none other than Lü Dongbin, the renowned leader of the Eight Immortals in the lower realm, and in the heavenly realm, he is the formidable Eastern Emperor who commands great authority in all directions
The sound of footsteps grew closer, and at this moment, Gao Yang truly did not dare to make a sound. Then, a pair of beautiful high-heeled shoes appeared in his line of sight
The comet is seated before a stone table, sipping fine wine, while occasionally glancing to the side. Not far from him, several enchanting fairies are gracefully dancing.
Little did he know that this small action still caught the attention of the two criminals. Brother Nan turned around and shouted sternly, "What are you doing?"
Opposite the broom star sits a man dressed in ancient attire, with a dignified yet graceful appearance. Compared to the broom star, this man presents a truly virtuous image.
Dongzi nervously leaned closer to Brother Nan and asked, "Brother Nan, what should we do now? There are so many landmines, it seems we won't be able to escape!"
I understand...
Moments later, looking at the oversized broom in his hand, Gao Yang couldn't help but smile wryly
Although he spoke with great confidence, he had already begun to feel apprehensive in his heart; this matter is likely not so easily resolved
... ...
The man shook his head and said: "Although that may be the case, as the current master of the broom star responsible for the cleanliness of the heavenly court, if you were to leave, who would take care of the cleaning of the heavenly court?"
Seeing Dongzi like this, Nan Ge was extremely furious and slapped him on the head, scolding, "Damn it, what time is it? Get serious!"
Rest assured! The Broom Star chuckled and said, "I have cast a secret spell on that sky-covering broom, and its power is no longer as formidable as it used to be. It can no longer sweep away Mount Tai; at most, it can only sweep away a palace or something like that"
Two criminals entered the convenience store, and their tense expressions finally relaxed. One of them, who appeared to be the leader, was observing the movements of the police outside while instructing the other criminal, "Dongzi, find a rope and tie her up. This girl is our only safeguard, and we cannot let her escape"
Nan Ge cast a cold glance at the girl and said: "Miss Feng Yufei, isn't it too late to say this now? You had better hope that the police outside do not act rashly, otherwise we cannot guarantee your safety!"
The path of the broom star
In almost an instant, Feng Yufei burst through the door and ran inside, while Gao Yang quickly got to his feet and swept the broom towards the unprepared Dongzi.
Dongzi murmured a response, rubbing his painfully hit head as he followed Feng Yufei backward.
When he first arrived at this convenience store, he noticed this door. Since the door was located behind the last shelf, it was completely undetectable from the entrance. He then discovered that this door led directly to a small alley outside, making it the perfect escape route.
At that moment, a sudden noise came from the entrance. Gao Yang quickly bent down and, through the gap in the shelves, saw two assailants entering while holding the girl hostage, and they did not forget to lock the door behind them.
A glimmer of light flashed in Feng Yufei's eyes as she quickly nodded, then slowly stood up. The assailant had only tied her hands and had not bound her feet.
Feng Yufei replied in a somewhat frightened whisper: "I... I want to go to the restroom!"
Understood, Brother Nan
These criminals are all desperate individuals, as it concerns life and death; at this moment, he truly cannot afford to be the slightest bit careless
Hehe! Alright!
The thug, referred to as Dongzi, agreed while pulling a rope from his pocket, binding the girl's hands together. He seemed still unable to recover from the tense atmosphere just moments ago, his hands still trembling slightly.
So be it, a broom is just a broom! After all, it is something from the heavens, and it might hurt quite a bit if it hits someone
This convenience store is not very large, with only six tall shelves inside. At this moment, Gao Yang is hiding behind the sixth shelf. Fortunately, when these thugs entered, they did not carefully inspect the interior; otherwise, it would have been disastrous
Gao Yang suddenly shouted loudly: "Run!"
"What a hassle!" Brother Nan said impatiently, pointing to the corner of the wall: "Go over there, Dongzi, you follow her!"
Although these two items are also from the Heavenly Court, they are ultimately just used for cleaning. If used for combat, they probably wouldn't be very useful, would they? As for that space, it seems to only be able to hold inanimate objects. Otherwise, couldn't he just throw the token over and capture those two evildoers?
Looking at this old friend who seems to thrive on chaos, Lü Dongbin shook his head helplessly, truly unaware of what calamity might arise in this world again
