After Jiang Xiaobai finished speaking, he immediately turned to leave.
Upon seeing this, Gu Xian shouted out in anger, “Hold it right there!”
He absolutely couldn’t let Jiang Xiaobai leave like this. If things escalated, everything would be ruined.
At the same time, Gu Xian ordered the masters of the city lord’s mansion to once again surround Jiang Xiaobai, refusing to let him leave.
“Oh, you want another fight?” Jiang Xiaobai squinted his eyes.
Did they really think he wouldn’t dare to kill the people of the city lord’s mansion?
“Ha, you started a fight at my city lord’s mansion and think you can just walk away like that?”
Gu Xian scoffed, “Regardless of your previous behavior, if you dare to breach the iron laws of the Thousand Yuan Dynasty, your death is certain! ”
“Capture him!”
Gu Xian could only use this as a pretext to hold the situation together, believing that even Elder Lin wouldn’t dare to interfere.
After all, he had the backing of the Thousand Yuan Dynasty. Although Purple Garden Mountain was powerful, it wouldn’t be wise for them to interfere in this matter.
“As long as we kill this bastard here, the matter will be settled.”
Just as Gu Xian was scheming, a reprimand suddenly echoed through the air.
“Stop it!”
The one who yelled was Lin Yucheng.
A look of rage filled his face, coupled with a great deal of shock.
It was because he had just taken Jiang Xiaobai’s advice and tasted a bit of the medicinal powder scraped off the pill.
The overwhelming potency of the medicine made him feel ecstatic and incredibly comfortable.
This stuff was indeed effective for Gong Shuier’s condition!
“Elder Lin, what on earth do you mean? Are you seriously going to meddle in the affairs of the dynasty?” demanded Gu Xian, gritting his teeth as he glared at Lin Yucheng.
“Humph, today, I would like to see who dares to lay a finger on Hong!”
Lin Yucheng coldly hummed, “Gu Xian, let me tell you, I, Lin Yucheng, have decided to intervene in this matter!”
“Impertinence! Hong Shixian has breached the iron laws of the dynasty, he must die!”
“What iron laws? They are only used to bully those without power. I’ll tell you now, Hong Shixian is a valued guest of the Purple Garden Mountain. I would like to see if you dare to touch him.”
Lin Yucheng coldly declared, “I’ll tell you, I am intervening in this matter on behalf of the Purple Garden Mountain. It’s just about protecting one person, a price that I can surely pay.”
“Hong, you can rest assured, today, no one dares to harm you!”
The fact that Lin Yucheng was helping him was not beyond Jiang Xiaobai’s calculations. After all, the two pills he gave were indeed extraordinarily rare.
With his alchemical skills, he could make a name for himself throughout the Tianxuan Continent just by producing pills, and everyone would have to respect him.
At this moment, with Lin Yucheng’s forceful intervention, Gu Xian’s face turned ashen.
He knew it was over for him.
“Thank you, Elder Lin, for your righteous intervention. I, Hong Shixian, will remember this.”
Jiang Xiaobai gave a slight bow, “I shall take my leave now. I will come to express my gratitude when the opportunity arises.”
“Ha ha, what are you talking about, Hong? You have done a great favor for Purple Garden Mountain, and you are a benefactor to us. If I don’t step in for you over such a small matter, how could I live with myself?”
Lin Yucheng laughed lightly, “You needn’t bother to visit us later just to express your thanks. If you could come to Purple Garden Mountain, I would definitely receive you with the highest standards of hospitality.”
“Ha ha, you’re too kind, Elder Lin. It’s just a small matter, it shouldn’t be elevated to such serious proportions,” Jiang Xiaobai said in a very polite manner.
He was always like this, if someone respected him, he would show even greater respect in return.
However, he noticed that Lin Yucheng’s gaze on him was getting stranger and stranger, which gave him the creeps.
Could it be that this guy was actually an old lecher?
Thinking about that, Jiang Xiaobai shivered all over, it was far too thrilling to even think about.
Then, without lingering, Jiang Xiaobai gave a slight bow to Lin Yucheng, shot Gu Xian a deep, meaningful look, and then left.
Those surrounding him did not dare to stop him. Firstly, without Gu Xian’s order, they wouldn’t act, and secondly, the reputation of Elder Lin was immensely terrifying. They knew that they wouldn’t stand a chance against Lin Yucheng.
Helplessly watching Jiang Xiaobai leave, Gu Xian was filled with resentment. He wished he could kill him right there and then.
However, he couldn’t do anything about it: he could only watch as Jiang Xiaobai left the city lord’s mansion, his figure disappearing into the night.
Lin Yucheng cast Gu Xian a cold glance.
Lord Gu, since this is the case, I won’t bother you any longer. There are some matters I need to attend to, so I will take my leave now.”
After leaving these words, Lin Yucheng departed without another word.
By the time everyone had gone, Gu Xian’s expression was frighteningly hideous. His aura running wild, he was on the brink of eruption.
“Dammit, dammit, dammit!”
With a furious yell, Gu Xian glared at Wang Laowu, “It’s all because of you, you useless piece of trash! If it wasn’t for you, this wouldn’t have happened!”
Wang Laowu panicked, promptly falling to his knees and begging for mercy.
However, how could Gu Xian let him off? All this was caused by him.
Immediately, Gu Xian struck him down with a single slap. His spiritual power transformed into sharp blades, instantly slicing Wang Laowu’s corpse into pieces.
The horrifying display of mutilating a corpse fully illustrated the phrase “cutting a body into a thousand pieces”. Seeing this, the crowd felt their hair stand on end. One by one, they all lowered their heads, not daring to make a sound.
“Issue a bounty, reward of fifty million top-grade spiritual stones. I swear I won’t rest until this scoundrel is captured!”
Gu Xian gritted his teeth, glaring angrily at the direction Jiang Xiaobai had departed in, and roared.
The incident at the city lord’s mansion gate that day had already spread throughout the city.
Everyone was fervently discussing it because Hong Shixian had not only defeated three sacred sons and daughters but had also provoked the city lord’s mansion and violated the iron laws of the dynasty.
Another Jiang Bai!
The wanted posters for Hong Shixian and Jiang Bai now nearly filled the entire billboard at the city gate.
Immediately, this incident became the talk of the town.
At the city gate, a group of people in blue robes walked in, immediately spotting a crowd gathered around the billboard, chattering away excitedly.
“Sister Linger, they must be discussing Jiang Bai again,” griped a mischievous girl as she moved to the front of the group, smiling at a tall woman next to her. “Really, Jiang Bai is quite courageous, I really want to see what he’s capable of.” “You, always thinking about strange things, if you focused on your cultivation, you’d already be in the late stage of Transcendence by now.”
Zhuang Huanling laughed lightly.
“Tsk…l can’t compare to you. You’re universally acknowledged as the pride of Jade Top Mountain.”
“Stop being so mischievous,” an attractive middle-aged woman in the group chided.
The playful girl stuck out her tongue but did not say anything else. However, she started to make her way towards the billboard to find out what was going on.
This action prompted a round of head-shaking and wry smiles from the group.
“When will the sect master’s daughter finally grow up and be more mature?” the beautiful middle-aged woman sighed.
Behind Zhuang Huanling’s blue veil, she was calm, “Elder Wu, is it true that a team from the Purple Garden Mountain is also in the city?”
“Yes, we even received a message from Lin Yucheng at noon, asking us to hurry here,” the elder woman confirmed.
“It’s been a while since I’ve seen Shuier. Elder, let’s move a little faster,” Zhuang Huanling urged..
