According to Li Yunfeng's memories, Wang Mu's wife treated her maidservant pretty well. Now that Wang Mu was dead, his wife had even chased away her personal maidservant?
The Heaven Refinement Pavilion's attitude towards her was terrible. If she had a powerful master backing her, would she have been reduced to such a state?
"What are you still doing here? Hurry up and leave! " At that moment, Alchemist Wang noticed that there were other alchemists and customers around. He immediately berated her with a suppressed voice.
Xiaoqing knew that her words carried little weight. There was no way she could change Alchemist Wang's decision. All she could do was walk out of the Heaven Refinement Pavilion with her head lowered.
Yi Yun's heart stirred as he gave the black-and-white alchemist a cold glance. Following that, he turned and walked out of the Heaven Refinement Pavilion.
He would be a fool if he continued buying, knowing that the Heaven Refinement Pavilion was ripping him off.
The alchemist was taken aback when he saw Yi Yun turn and leave without a word. Following that, he said coldly, "You sure have a temper. However, you will soon learn that the Martial Numinous clan reigns supreme in Martial City."
He was certain that Yi Yun would soon discover that it was difficult to buy herbs from the other medicinal clinics in the Martial Numinous Palace or that he would have to pay an exorbitant price.
At that moment, Yi Yun was already following Xiaoqing from afar. With Xiaoqing's cultivation level, she would not notice Yi Yun even if he was right behind her.
Xiaoqing's eyes were red as she focused on hurrying forward. Soon, she left the main street and entered a small alley.
As a maidservant, Xiaoqing's residence was rather remote. Her living conditions were not very good.
The alleys were crisscrossed. Yi Yun locked onto Xiaoqing's location with his perception as he walked behind her at an unhurried pace.
At that moment, he heard a scream from Xiaoqing's direction.
Yi Yun's heart stirred as his figure phased away. In a blink of an eye, he appeared near Xiaoqing.
At that moment, Xiaoqing was surrounded by two men. However, they were not trying to rape her. They had an aggressive stance and were interrogating her.
One of them shouted coldly, "You slut, quickly tell me where Wang Mu, his old fart of a father, and his daughter are!"
Xiaoqing looked at the duo in fear as she curled up in a corner. She shook her head vigorously and said, "I really don't know anything … I'm no longer a maidservant of the Wang family. How would I know their whereabouts …"
"You still dare to quibble?" Another bald man said with a scoff, "That Wang Mu has already become a dead dog. In order to save him and keep him alive, his father and daughter have spent a lot of Spirit Jade. They are living quite a miserable life. And you, as someone who has nothing to do with them, are helping them every month, providing them with food and spiritual jades. Do you think we don't know? Now you're saying that you have nothing to do with the Wang Clan! "
Xiao Qing's face turned pale. It turned out that the two of them had already investigated everything that she had done.
"I … I did send some things over, but that's because Old Master Wang is already old, and Miss Xiao is still young. I couldn't bear to do it on account of our past relationship as master and servant. But I really don't know where they are now … Could it be that something happened to them? "Xiao Qing asked.
"Little slut, looks like you won't shed a tear until you see your coffin. Wang Mu and company had colluded with others to kill Elder Li's beloved son, Young Master Li Yunfeng. Now, they have fled to avoid punishment. Regardless of whether you really don't know or not, once we bring you back to the Torture Tower, we will naturally know if you're telling the truth. In the Torture Tower, there are many punishments that are specifically targeted at women. That feeling is truly memorable … "As the bald man spoke, he looked at Xiao Qing with a twisted, lascivious glint in his eyes.
Upon hearing the words' Torture Tower, 'Xiao Qing immediately felt like she had been struck by lightning. Her body trembled, clearly knowing what kind of place the Torture Tower was. Not only did people who entered the Torture Tower rarely come out alive, they would also suffer inhumane torture, especially women. They would suffer endless humiliation.
"No … You can't bring me to the Torture Tower …" Xiao Qing retreated in despair but there was nowhere for her to retreat to.
"Hahaha, do you think this is something you can decide? You'd better come with us obediently. Otherwise, we'll torture you here. I've been wanting to try out some of the torture methods in the punishment building for a long time, "another man said with a sinister smile as he licked his lips.
Just as the duo walked towards Xiao Qing with surging killing intent, the bald man suddenly felt a chill run down his back. He turned his head abruptly and saw a young man standing behind him.
Yi Yun appeared like he was just passing by as he walked towards him step by step.
"Who are you?"
Upon seeing Yi Yun, the bald man's heart skipped a beat. He had not sensed that there was someone around him at all. Only when the man came this close did he finally realize it.
"Stop. This is the Martial Numinous Palace's business. Unauthorized personnel, leave quickly," said the cold-faced man.
Xiao Qing's face was filled with despair. Although a stranger had suddenly appeared, she knew that no one in Martial City would ask about the Martial Numinous clan's matters.
But to the cold-faced man's surprise, Yi Yun acted as though he did not hear him. He continued walking over slowly.
"Are you deaf?" The bald man frowned and took out a token. He raised it up and said, "We are under the orders of Martial Numinous Palace's Elder Li Jiuxiao …"
At that moment, the bald man's vision suddenly blurred. Yi Yun, who was more than ten steps away, had suddenly appeared in front of him. He extended his hand and slapped him ruthlessly in the face.
The slap sent the bald man flying. He saw stars and his mouth tasted blood. As for the token, it fell to the ground with a clang.
Pa.
Yi Yun stepped on the token, shattering it into pieces!
Only then did Yi Yun glance at the bald man. The way he looked at him was like he was looking at a piece of trash on the road.
The cold-faced man was alarmed. The man's attack was just too fast. Furthermore, the token was an artifact refined by an artifact refiner. It was extremely tough, so how could it shatter so easily? The ground was not as tough as the token. Logically speaking, the ground should have shattered. How did he do it?
"Brother, regardless of who you are, you have committed a grave sin by attacking people from the Martial Numinous Palace in Martial City!" The cold-faced man hurriedly retreated as he shouted. At the same time, he reached for his interspatial ring.
However!
With a whoosh, Yi Yun's figure appeared in front of him and kicked him in the chest!
"Wah!" The cold-faced man spat out a mouthful of blood. His chest had caved in from the kick. His bones had fractured and his organs had been pulverized. He was no longer alive.
Immediately following that, Yi Yun returned in front of the bald man.
"You … You dare kill people from the Martial Numinous Palace …" The bald man looked at Yi Yun in horror.
"Noisy." Yi Yun raised his foot and stomped down.
