#2328 - Ask Chu Hao in return

The old county magistrate naturally thought of Chu Hao. Chu Hao had previously revealed his identity as the Prison God of the Three Realms, a celestial immortal of the Heavenly Court.

If there was anyone who could save the chaotic situation in Diling County, it would naturally be Chu Hao.

"Quickly go and find the immortal Chu Hao. This official wants to speak with him face to face."

The old county magistrate issued an order to the head constable.

The head constable immediately led the constables to search for Chu Hao's whereabouts. In fact, Chu Hao was not hiding his tracks at all.

He knew that with Diling County in its current state, the old county magistrate would definitely not be able to handle it and would send someone to look for him.

And Chu Hao was waiting for them to come, naturally in order to negotiate further and rescue Tang Seng and the others.

The head constable and his men found Chu Hao's trail and came to him, naturally being extremely polite.

"Immortal Chu Hao, Lord Prison God. Our County Magistrate invites you."

The head constable said respectfully to Chu Hao.

Chu Hao naturally did not refuse the head constable's invitation and followed them to the county government office.

When the old county magistrate saw Chu Hao, his attitude was completely different from before, treating Chu Hao with the respect due a god.

"Lord Prison God, now a large number of demons have poured into our Diling County, causing havoc. I beg Lord Prison God to take action and eliminate the demons for our Diling County.

This official and the people of Diling County will definitely be grateful for Lord Prison God's great kindness. Please do not refuse, Lord Prison God."

Hearing the old county magistrate say this, Chu Hao smiled and nodded.

"I am originally the Prison God of the Three Realms of the Heavenly Court, and naturally have the obligation to maintain the peace of Diling County. I will naturally not ignore this.

But I am alone and weak. I also need Tang Seng and the others to help. Without them, I am afraid it will be difficult for me to deal with these demons on my own."

Chu Hao's words were intended to make the old county magistrate release Tang Seng and his disciples, but this made the old county magistrate somewhat embarrassed.

It wasn't that the old county magistrate was unwilling to release Tang Seng and the others. After all, compared to the current situation in Diling County, even if Tang Seng and the others really had any crimes, they were insignificant.

But the old county magistrate had spoken too definitively in front of the people of Diling County. Now, if he were to release Tang Seng and the others, he would lose face.

"The County Magistrate can rest assured that even if you release Tang Seng and the others, they will not be able to leave Diling County.

If they really have committed any crimes, you can arrest them again at that time. This has nothing to do with the County Magistrate's face."

Chu Hao saw through the old county magistrate's thoughts and said to him with a smile.

"Lord Prison God is right. This official will release them immediately and let Tang Seng and the others assist Lord Prison God in maintaining the peace of my Diling County."

Having a way out, the old county magistrate naturally agreed immediately.

Tang Seng and the others were released from the county government office and followed Chu Hao to the Kou residence.

The Kou residence was now empty, with only the Nine-Tailed Fox impersonating Kou Shanren's woman, so Chu Hao still used it as his residence.

"Thank you, Immortal Chu Hao, for your rescue!"

Tang Seng said gratefully to Chu Hao.

This time, the layout of Diling County designed by the Western Heaven was dangerous for their master and disciples. If it weren't for Chu Hao, they would have really had a hard time escaping.

"Although the old county magistrate has not yet relented, in fact, you don't have to worry anymore."

Chu Hao said to Tang Seng and the others.
