The moment the bald man's head was chopped off, the blue light coming out of his eyes, ears, mouth, and nose dimmed. When his head fell to the ground, it was completely extinguished.
This meant that the Divine Power that separated from him was killed in this body.
Zhang Yu glanced at it, shook his sword, and slowly sheathed it. The rising light on his body dimmed, and only a layer of light still surrounded his body. At this moment, he suddenly raised his head and looked in a certain direction.
On a tall building somewhere in Dan Port, two masked men were looking into the city with a telescope. When they saw the bald man being beheaded, their hands trembled. But then they saw Zhang Yu suddenly look over. It felt as if he was staring at them.
One of them loosened his grip and dropped the telescope on the ground.
"He, he found us! He found us! "He shouted in horror.
"What are you shouting for? He's so far away, he won't be able to come here in time …" The other man looked calm, but his body was trembling. It seemed that he was not as calm as he looked.
"Then what should we do?"
"Let's leave here first. There'll be a way."
Now, they were not worried about Zhang Yu. Instead, they were worried about the God of Balance. Not only had they failed to obtain the sacrifice, but the God of Balance had also lost an avatar that had descended into the mortal world. They would have to pay the price for this.
They hurriedly came down from upstairs. Just as they were about to leave, they suddenly realized that a blood-colored seal of scales had appeared on the back of their hands. This was the ritual contract that had been set previously. It had been established the moment they summoned the God of Scales.
"No, no." They looked terrified and hurriedly knelt down. They begged the invisible existence, "Great God of Balance, please let us go. We will offer enough sacrifices, as many as you want …"
They seemed to hear a loud voice in their ears.
"I am fair."
The next moment, the man who had held the ritual suddenly burst into flames. This was a strange blue flame. After a while, there was only a pile of unrecognizable ashes and a pale mask left.
The other man was terrified. He leaned against the corner and trembled.
"Offer enough sacrifices in 15 days."
"Yes, great God of Balance." The man hurriedly crawled on the ground. When the sound disappeared, he hurriedly got up, pushed open the wooden door, and stumbled out of the building.
Qin Wu felt his body recover some strength. He used the scabbard to stand up and slowly moved to the front of the carriage. Then he leaned against a broken stone block and looked at the silent headless body. Panting, he asked, "Is it dead?"
Zhang Yu said, "It's not dead. It's just an incarnation of a god."
"God's incarnation?"
Qin Wu's heart shook as he stared blankly at Zhang Yu, asking, "So … it's over?"
Zhang Yu raised his head and looked into the distance. He said indifferently, "It's over, unless he comes himself. But this is Auspicious Light, he won't dare to come."
Qin Wu suddenly relaxed, and then he fell into a deep sleep.
Like him, all the guards and swordsmen had lost consciousness and were lying on the ground. Feeling the pressure of the divine power at such a close distance was not only mental damage, but it was also a huge burden on the body.
At this very moment, there were two figures that were as fast as lightning heading towards the city from Dan Harbor. They were both wearing the Daoist robes of the Profound Palace.
Just now, they felt the signs of EsGod's divine power near the city gate, so they immediately rushed over.
In fact, they had already arrived very quickly. However, not much time had passed since the bald man appeared and was killed.
But just as the two of them approached, the divine power suddenly disappeared, and the front suddenly became terrifyingly quiet.
The two of them could not help but become alert and slow down. They even met a group of officials who had rushed over after hearing the commotion. However, they had been patrolling outside and did not dare to enter this area.
They did not bother with them. After discussing for a while, they walked in.
When those officials saw the people from the Profound Palace walking inside, they became a little more courageous and cautiously followed them in.
However, other than the occasional breeze, there was only silence. The collapsed houses, broken walls, broken stone pillars, and obvious traces of movement on the ground. It was as if someone had fought with a rampaging beast here.
This scene made them tremble with fear and trepidation. They were afraid that the giant beast had not left yet.
The complexions of the two Profound Palace cultivators turned solemn. After they turned the corner of the street that had turned into ruins, their line of sight widened. Then, they saw a young man whose entire body was shrouded in a glimmering glimmer standing on top of the spacious flat ground. He wore a Profound Palace Daoist robe, and stood with a sword in his hand. His elegant demeanor was like that of an immortal, and his divine bearing was elegant. Not far from his feet, there was a headless corpse. Behind him, there were guards lying on the ground.
This scene was extremely impactful, causing the two Profound Palace cultivators to be slightly absent-minded for a moment. Only then did they notice the corpse on the ground. They were both experienced veterans, so it wasn't difficult for them to discern from the remnant aura that this was the carrier of a deity's descent.
One of them looked at Zhang Yu. Solemnly, he cupped his hands and said, "My name is Deng Xiao. May I know which senior brother is on the other side?"
Zhang Yu looked at them. He had never seen these two people before. He raised his hand and returned the salute. "Zhang Yu."
"So it's Junior Brother Zhang!"
Because of Xiang Chun and Xu Ying's intentional promotion, most of the Xuanfu Xuanxiu had heard of Zhang Yu's name even if they had not seen him before.
The other Xuanxiu pointed at the headless corpse and said, "Junior Brother Zhang, this deity's host … was it you who killed it?"
Zhang Yu replied, "Yes."
The two looked at each other and could not help but look at Zhang Yu a few more times.
This was a deity's incarnation. Usually, only Xuanxiu who had seen the Second Dao Chapter could deal with it. This Junior Brother Zhang had only entered Xuanfu in the first half of this year, right? Now it seemed that he was far ahead of them.
When the Sikus heard the word 'deity', they trembled and could not help but distance themselves from the corpse. They only looked at it from afar, not daring to come closer.
The two Xuanxiu walked up and checked the surroundings while chatting with Zhang Yu.
After a while, the guards and swordsmen gradually recovered from their blank state. However, they were only temporarily awake, and their bodies had not yet returned to normal. Many of them had to help each other sit up.
When they saw the scene in front of them, they were shocked.
It was hard to imagine that this almost ruined realm was the realm they had been in before. Moreover, the ground was full of broken craters, and one of them was even not far from the carriage Jiang Dingyi was in.
One could imagine how fierce the battle was at that time. It did not seem like it was caused by human strength.
At this time, the young girl Xiao Ling sat down on a clean stone with the help of a young man. She leaned on her sword and looked around. Then, she looked at Zhang Yu and the two Xuanxiu who were talking. The hem of her robe fluttered from time to time in the breeze. Her delicate eyes were full of admiration. She said, "So this is Xuanxiu. So awesome!"
The young man said sourly, "What's so great about it? If I were a Xuanxiu, I could do it too."
The young girl laughed, amused by him. She looked ahead and thought of something. Soon, she was entranced. Finally, a serious look appeared on her face.
At this time, Zhang Yu seemed to have heard something. He apologized to the two Xuanxiu and walked to the side of the carriage. "Minister, are you alright?"
Jiang Dingyi's weak voice came from inside. "I'm fine. How are my colleagues and guards?"
Zhang Yu replied, "They're fine. No one was injured."
Jiang Dingyi was silent for a while. "Minister, I have a few questions for you. Please come in and talk."
Zhang Yu acknowledged him. He lifted the curtains and walked into the spacious carriage that could accommodate seven to eight people. Jiang Dingyi was sitting there holding onto the wooden armrest of the carriage. He seemed to be in good condition.
Seeing him come in, Jiang Dingyi reluctantly put his hands together and bowed. "Sorry for the lack of manners. Minister, please take a seat."
Zhang Yu returned the bow and sat down in front of him.
Jiang Dingyi asked, "Minister, what was that thing just now?"
Zhang Yu replied, "A god's incarnation."
"A god's incarnation?" Jiang Dingyi was shocked. "Then …"
Zhang Yu said, "I've already killed him."
Jiang Dingyi heaved a sigh of relief. He then said, "Luckily, this EsGod attacked me and not the people in the city." Then, he tried his best to straighten his body and cupped his hands at Zhang Yu. "I have to thank you for saving everyone."
Zhang Yu raised his hands and returned the bow. "This is what I should do."
He then looked at Jiang Dingyi and asked, "Minister, do you still want to make the announcement?"
Jiang Dingyi said firmly, "Of course! How can the trust of the government be lost because of me? "
At this time, he felt that he had recovered some of his strength. He moved his limbs and opened the curtain to look outside. However, he realized that most people were still unable to sit up and were in a worse condition than him. He was confused. "Minister, you said that no one was injured, but the guards are all strong. Why do they look weaker than me now?"
Zhang Yu replied, "This is because Minister is from Tianxia."
Jiang Dingyi was surprised. "From Tianxia? But aren't everyone here from Tianxia? "He then realized and said," Minister, are you talking about … the bloodline of Tianxia? "
Zhang Yu nodded.
For many eras, the native Lingdu had been threatened and enslaved by the gods and monsters. Those who dared to resist had died long ago. Therefore, their bodies were engraved with fear and obedience toward the gods.
However, the people of Tianxia came from outside the virtual sky and were not included. Even the people of mixed blood with Tianxia were slightly better.
This was also one of the reasons why the god hated and feared the people of Tianxia. This was because pure mental pressure would not have much effect on a Xuanxiu like Zhang Yu. Even ordinary people of Tianxia would not have much of an effect.
