The city lord's estate of Scarlet Water City had been reduced to dust by Jianchen's sword Qi, dispersing with the wind.
The surroundings of the city lord's estate were already packed with people. The disturbance in the city lord's estate was just too great. It had alarmed all of Scarlet Water City. All the cultivators with some strength had gathered there. They stood far away and stared blankly at the buildings that had disappeared in front of them. Waves of shock surged in their hearts.
Not only was the city lord's estate the sky of Scarlet Water City, but it was also the representative of the Gloomwater sect. It possessed an extremely great background.
Yet now, the city lord's estate had actually been razed to the ground. This shocked everyone to the extreme.
Everyone's gazes gathered in front of the City Lord's Mansion at the same time. There was a young man in a white robe whose clothes fluttered in the wind. Expressions of admiration, shock, dread, and fear appeared one after another.
"Fang Jing 'er, you don't have to worry about the people of the city lord's estate making things difficult for you in the future." Jianchen's expression did not change at all. He was as calm as the wind as he turned his head and said to the girl behind him.
However, Fang Jing 'er did not seem to hear Jianchen at all. Her eyes were wide open as she stared fixedly at the flattened city lord's estate. Disbelief filled her face.
In Fang Jing 'er's eyes, the city lord's estate of Scarlet Water City had always been an unreachable sacred place. It was the ruler of Scarlet Water City. No one dared to disobey the orders of the city lord's estate.
Yet now, the city lord's estate that was like a god in her eyes had completely vanished before her. Fang Jing 'er was left stunned for quite some time.
She had never thought that the 'young senior' who had bought a rough map from her earlier would actually be such a terrifying expert.
However, at this moment, Jianchen's eyes suddenly narrowed. He stared at Fang Jing 'er without blinking at all.
He saw strands of karma strands on Fang Jing 'er's body. Each strand of karma strands extended in different directions.
This was nothing. There was karma in the world. All cultivators would be entangled by karma to varying degrees. However, this karma was something that only those who had comprehended the Way of Karma could see. Apart from those super experts who had reached the peak of cultivation, only those who had comprehended the Way of Karma could see.
The Dao of Karma was something that Jianchen had comprehended through the Samsara Immortal Exalt back when he was in Poseidon Palace. That was why he could see the Karma Threads.
He had bought a map from Fang Jing 'er before saving her from the people of the city lord's estate. Now, he had even used the matter of Fang Jing' er to destroy the city lord's estate. As a result, he had formed karma with Fang Jing 'er.
However, to Jianchen's surprise, the Karma Line between him and Fang Jing 'er was extremely thick. Judging by the strength of the Karma Line, it had far surpassed the level of strangers meeting by chance. It was at least a million times stronger.
"This …" Jianchen was stunned. He could not figure it out no matter how hard he thought about it. How could his karmic thread with Fang Jing 'er be so powerful?
Jianchen gazed deeply at Fang Jing 'er. His eyes flickered with surprise and doubt.
After a moment of silence, he said again, "Fang Jing 'er, let's go check on your grandfather." With that, Jianchen waved his hand. The Laws of Space permeated the air, and he vanished with Fang Jing 'er.
He could see Fang Jing 'er's Karma Line. Through it, he already knew the exact location of Fang Jing' er's grandfather in Red Water City.
"Sigh!" Looking in the direction that Jianchen and Fang Jing 'er had vanished in, Xu Ran sighed gently as he stood to one side. Then, he vanished silently as well.
In an extremely remote area of Scarlet Water City, there was a small stone house made completely of rubble. The light in the stone house was dim, and there was a faint stench that quietly filled the air.
At this moment, the space before the stone hut suddenly rippled. Jianchen and Fang Jing 'er appeared silently.
"Argh!" Only then did Fang Jing 'er snap out of her daze. She looked at the stone hut that she had lived in for over a decade that had suddenly appeared before her eyes. She could not help but cry out.
Wasn't she in the city lord's estate? Why had she suddenly returned home?
Fang Jing 'er felt like she was dreaming.
"Let's go in and check on your grandfather," said Jian Chen. His thread of karma with Fang Jing 'er was so deep, so his opinion of Fang Jing' er had changed.
Although he had no idea why his thread of karma with Fang Jing 'er had become so deep, he understood that his relationship with her was definitely not as simple as a chance acquaintance.
Fang Jing 'er glanced at Jianchen timidly. After a moment of hesitation, she gently pushed open the wooden door and entered.
The space within the stone house was very small and the light was very dim. Near the corner of the room was a pale-faced old man. He was lying on a stone bed without any strength. The floor beside him was covered in dried blood. The stench was coming from this blood.
Fang Jing 'er seemed to have already grown accustomed to the stench. She did not show any abnormalities. As soon as she entered the stone hut, she threw herself at the old man. Deep concern and sorrow filled her face.
"Grandfather, grandfather, I'm back …" Fang Jing 'er called out softly, as if she was afraid that she would disturb the old man if she was too loud.
When he heard that, the old man's eyelids trembled slightly. Finally, he opened his eyes with great difficulty, revealing a pair of dim, lifeless eyes.
Jianchen stared at the old man. He wanted to see if the Karma Line between him and Fang Jing 'er had anything to do with the old man.
In the end, he was disappointed. He had no Karma Line with the old man.
In other words, before he came here, he had nothing to do with the old man.
"Jing 'er, you're back. You haven't been mistreated in the past few days outside, have you …" the old man said weakly. His eyes were filled with love and guilt.
Fang Jing 'er shook her head. She said, "Grandfather, I've already sold nine maps this month. As long as I sell one more map, I'll be able to buy a healing pill for you and let you live for another month. Don't worry, grandfather. I'll definitely work hard to sell maps. Once I've earned enough divine crystals, I'll buy some high-grade pills and let you recover completely. "
"Give this pill to your grandfather. Not only can this pill completely heal your grandfather's wounds, but it can also allow your grandfather's cultivation to progress greatly," Jianchen's voice rang out. He handed a thumb-sized pill to Fang Jing 'er.
"He's actually using a god-tier pill to heal a martial artist who's only a Holy Emperor. What a waste," Xu Ran could not help but mutter outside the stone hut.
"Thank … thank you, senior!" Fang Jing 'er accepted the pill from Jianchen in surprise and joy. She fed it to her grandfather excitedly.
Immediately, tremendous Essence Qi enveloped the old man. The effects of the god-tier healing pill began to take effect, forming a layer of faint white mist that enveloped the old man.
"In just a few breaths of time, your grandfather's injuries will be completely healed. However, the medicinal power of this pill is very strong. The remaining medicinal power will increase your grandfather's cultivation. Therefore, your grandfather will not wake up immediately after his injuries are healed. He will cultivate for a period of time." He'll cultivate for a while, "Jianchen said to Fang Jing 'er. After some hesitation, he took out a cultivation method and some cultivation resources from his Space Ring and gave them to Fang Jing' er. He said," In the future, don't sell maps. Find a quiet place and cultivate properly. Only by becoming powerful can you survive in this world. "
