Under everyone’s gazes, Zhou Jing flew across the river and landed on the shore. He casually threw the trembling Kong Bao to the ground and retracted his magic powers.

20 to 30 villagers knelt on the ground, their faces filled with excitement, as they constantly chanted the “deity” word.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Zhou Jing could not help but sigh.

As expected, this Wind Summoning Technique was too convenient to use in this world.

However, he only needed to bewitch others and make them think that he had divine powers. There was no need to call himself a god for the time being… If he raised his “presence” too high, it would easily be seen through. It was better to leave room for others to imagine and hypothesize instead.

Thinking of this, Zhou Jing raised his palm and smiled, “Everyone, please rise. I’m not the immortal that descended from the heavens. I’m just a mystic from the wilderness. There’s no need to worship me.”

Hearing this, the villagers stood up hesitantly and sized up Zhou Jing.

When they got closer, everyone was shocked. They felt that Zhou Jing looked very strange. He had a high nose and deep eyes, his skin was like white jade, and his short hair was black with a hint of brown. He did not look like an ordinary person.

The villagers quickly lowered their heads again, not daring to look at him. They were in awe, but they did not find his appearance strange.

As expected of a god, even his appearance is extraordinary!

Seeing that no one dared to speak, Zhou Jing took the initiative to talk,

“I’m Ling Fengzi, an outsider. I’ve been cultivating in the wilderness for a long time and haven’t been to the mortal world. Recently, I’ve been extremely quiet and have been thinking about moving. I’ve stepped into the mortal world and searched the heavenly fate; it has told me to head to the Ning Tian Prefecture. As I passed by this place, I encountered this boatman. He wanted to kill me in the river, but I captured him instead. Do you know this person’s background?”

Hearing this immortal-like expert’s question, many villagers did not dare not answer.

An old man who looked like the village chief walked out and said in fear and trepidation,

“This person’s name is Kong Bao. He’s a strong man from the Green Forest nearby. He often pretends to be a boatman and takes guests back and forth between the two shores. When he reaches the river, he steals money and kills people.

The citizens of the nearby fishing villages know of this person, but he’s proficient in martial arts, has outstanding swimming skills, and is stronger than most people. We can’t do anything to him. In addition, this Kong Bao usually only harms foreigners and doesn’t disturb us, so we let him be. Now that this thief has been captured by the Dragon King, it’s his retribution.”

At first, Zhou Jing listened normally, but at the last sentence, he could not help but laugh. He spoke out cheerily,

“Old Sir, I’ve already said that I’m not a god, nor am I that Dragon King. You can call me Ling Fengzi or Daoist Priest.”

“Understood, understood! I’ll definitely remember Dragon… Daoist’s instructions.”

The village chief nodded repeatedly, but he was even more certain in his heart that this man was the Dragon King traveling incognito, so he did not want his whereabouts to be exposed.

Zhou Jing did not insist on his thoughts either. He looked at Kong Bao and pondered for a few seconds before speaking,

“Since he’s a lone bandit, tie him up and hand him over to the authorities.”

Hearing this, Kong Bao hurriedly knelt down and shouted, “Grandpa Daoist! I won’t dare to do it again in the future! I’m willing to surrender and serve you!”

“… What are you fantasizing about?”

Zhou Jing was speechless. He struck Kong Bao’s neck heavily, knocking him out.

Despite his built, Bill had 25 Physical Fitness points now, only slightly weaker than Chen Feng’s initial Physical Fitness. In the current standards of this world, he was also a “excellent fighter” and had considerable strength.

Currently, if he wanted Bill to climb the social ladder, it would be troublesome to bring such a person along.

Moreover, he had just investigated Kong Bao’s attributes and found out that his martial arts skills were not high. Among the powerful people from the Green Forest that Chen Feng knew, his skills were not even worth mentioning.

If Lu Yunzhao’s combat strength was valued 90, Kong Bao’s was at most in his early 70s. He was not very powerful, but he could bully ordinary people.

“Thank you, Daoist Priest, for getting rid of this danger for us.”

Many villagers hurriedly thanked him and boldly went forward to tie Kong Bao up tightly with ropes.

Zhou Jing no longer cared about this matter. He changed the topic and carefully asked these locals about the geography of the area.

Everyone naturally answered all the questions and quickly explained the situation nearby.

This place was only three to four days away from Ning Tian Prefecture. If one followed the river, they could reach the port to the west of the prefecture, called the West Gate Docks. It was one of the prosperous water transportation docks of the Ning Tian Prefecture, and also a large bay of the Jiangchun River.

Ships from the south to the north were docked there, loading and unloading goods. It could be said that there were thousands of ships crossing the river, and the sails were like clouds. It was an extremely lively place.

Zhou Jing’s eyes flashed as he had an idea.

“Since I’m going to take the route of pretending to be mysterious, I don’t have to use the idea of slowly accumulating fame. Why don’t I just make it big… I’ll become famous in Ning Tian Prefecture and walk down the route to ascending the social ladder.?

It’s best to quickly hook up with the big families in the city, such as creating a hot topic that can spread throughout the city in a short period of time, so I have to have enough witnesses… Since the port of the prefecture is so lively every day, it’s undoubtedly better for me to go there and do something.”

Zhou Jing felt that it was a feasible idea.

He could directly create a rumor that would shake the entire city and let those higher-ups know that he was a “god”. From there, they would take the initiative to visit and invite him as a guest… This would definitely be better than him coming to swindle them.

This was just marketing himself!

However, in the beginning, he could take the initiative to hook up with a rich person and ask them to help him solve trivial problems like his lack of identification. It would be convenient and useful.

After obtaining the information he wanted, Zhou Jing did not delay any longer. He immediately left the village and headed in the direction of the Ning Tian Prefecture’s West Gate Dock.

After he left, many villagers were still immersed in the experience of meeting a god today. They talked about it happily in the village and even playfully gave him the title of “Dragon King Who Fools Burglars”.
