Such a scene was naturally seen by many cultivators on the street. Everyone looked at the girl who was taken away with sympathy and pity, and no one dared to stand up and stop them.
It was as if the Deities who had taken away the girl made many of the Gods and even the more powerful Overgods fear them. They dared not provoke them.
Jianchen's eyes turned cold when he saw this. He arrived before the people in a flash and asked emotionlessly, "May I ask what crime this girl has committed? Why have you taken her away?"
The Deities were stunned when they saw Jianchen appear before them. However, they sneered soon afterwards. One of them looked at Jianchen with a scornful gaze, "Kid, do you know who we are? I advise you to mind your own business, or you won't be able to get out of here alive.
Otherwise, you won't be able to make it out of Scarlet Water City alive. "
"Sir, they're the subordinates of the young master of Scarlet Water City. You can't offend them …"
At the same time, many cultivators' messages rang out in Jianchen's head.
Jianchen immediately understood everything when he heard them mention the young master of Scarlet Water City. His eyes immediately turned cold, and he said coldly, "Release her."
The subordinates of the young master of Scarlet Water City became furious when they saw how Jianchen did not know what was good for them. Their faces all sank, and three of them immediately pulled out low quality saint artifacts as they bellowed out furiously. They charged towards Jianchen with surging killing intent.
Jianchen remained emotionless. With a casual wave of his hand, the street immediately lit up with dazzling light. Sharp sword Qi enveloped the subordinates of the young master of Scarlet Water City.
Immediately, the three low quality saint artifacts directly disintegrated under the sword Qi, reduced to fine dust. The Deities who had taken away the girl seemed to be cut into pieces under the sword Qi. Their bodies began to vanish, and all their bones were reduced to dust.
In an instant, the Deities vanished. They had been reduced to nothingness under the sword Qi.
However, they were not dead. Their souls hovered there as they stared at Jianchen blankly in fear.
Jianchen had only destroyed their bodies and not their souls.
The bustling street instantly became completely silent. At this moment, everyone on both sides of the street involuntarily stopped walking. Their faces were filled with shock as they stared at the few clusters of Yuan Spirits floating in the air. A storm rose in their hearts.
Destroying the bodies of a few Deities was nothing difficult. The Overgods in the crowd could do it easily.
However, it was rather shocking that Jianchen could make their bodies disappear with just a casual wave of his hand, leaving only their souls behind.
Just you wait … "At this moment, the souls finally returned to their senses. They said viciously before immediately flying towards the city lord's estate.
However, Jianchen acted like he had done something insignificant. He did not care about the fleeing souls at all. He slowly made his way over to the girl and asked, "Are you fine?"
The girl was extremely pale. Her face was filled with fear and dread. She could not help but pull away from Jianchen as she said with a trembling voice, "I …" Originally, she wanted to say "I'm fine", but she was unable to utter the last two words due to her trembling voice.
After all, she was only in her teens. She had not experienced much, so her mental fortitude was naturally not great. Everything that had happened had frightened her silly.
"Don't be afraid. With me here, no one in Scarlet Water City can harm you," Jianchen said gently.
Xu Ran stood to one side and watched everything silently. She said nothing. In her opinion, Jianchen's actions were completely pointless.
She had already cultivated for who knows how many years, so she had seen similar things countless times. She was already numb to it, so she basically did not feel pity like Jianchen did.
At this moment, a pressure appeared. Under the lead of an old man, over a hundred armored soldiers flew over with lightning speed from the direction of the city lord's estate.
"Caretaker He, it's him. He's the one who destroyed our bodies," one of the souls who had just been destroyed by Jianchen said loudly beside the old man.
Without the old man's orders, the soldiers behind him all surged over, surrounding Jianchen and the girl.
The little girl was nervous and scared to the extreme. Her petite body was trembling.
"Don't be afraid!" Jianchen gently placed his hand on the girl's shoulder as he comforted her.
"Who are you? How dare you injure the people of our city lord's estate in Scarlet Water City. How bold of you," the old man called out coldly from three meters in the air.
"What crime has this girl committed? Why are you taking her away?" Jianchen stared straight at the old man.
The old man immediately snorted coldly with that. He said coldly, "In Scarlet Water City, the city lord has the final say in who we capture and what crime we punish. You, on the other hand, have injured the people of our city lord's estate. This is a crime punishable by death. " With that, the old man waved his hand and ordered, "Capture this person. If he resists, kill him on the spot."
Immediately, all the cultivators gathered on the two sides of the street moved away. At that moment, all the structures on the two sides of the street activated their formations as well. The hundred or so soldiers that surrounded Jianchen and the girl fell into a battle formation in a single instance. Powerful energy surged as they charged towards Jianchen.
"Is the city lord's estate of Scarlet Water City always so tyrannical? If that's the case, there's no need for the city lord's estate to remain, "Jianchen said coldly. He directly ignored the battle formation of the hundred or so soldiers.
Even though there were many Gods among the soldiers, and the battle formation was powerful enough to threaten Overgods, it was still nothing before Jianchen.
He continued to wave his sleeves, and with a wave of his hand, the battle formation collapsed. In an instant, over a hundred soldiers were heavily injured. Then, with a flash of his body, he arrived in front of the old man like a ghost. Before the old man could react, he grabbed the old man by the neck and lifted him up.
The old man was astounded. Only now did he realise that he had provoked a terrifying expert. Filled with fear, he said with difficulty, "Scarlet Water City is the territory of the Gloomwater Sect. Our city lord is an envoy of the Gloomwater Sect. Offending us is equivalent to offending the Gloomwater Sect. The Gloomwater Sect will not spare you."
It would have been better if he had not mentioned the Gloomwater Sect. Now that he did, Jianchen's killing intent immediately surged.
Originally, Jianchen had no intentions of killing the old man. However, when the old man mentioned the Gloomwater Sect, Jianchen struggled to suppress his killing intent.
