Those around, witnessing this scene, couldn't help but shake their heads, saying, "Sigh, this woman has been targeted by the Little Tyrant; she's probably doomed."
Someone asked in bewilderment, "Isn't anyone going to do anything about this?"
Another person said, "Manage? His father is the city lord, how can you manage him? You'd only dare to manage him if you didn't want to live in the city anymore."
Upon hearing this, the person chose to remain silent.
A look of disgust flashed across the Devil Master's face. Without any hesitation, he raised his hand and waved it. In an instant, the youth's head flew off, leaving a blank expression on his face.
The room fell silent. Everyone stared at the scene, their faces pale, and gasped in shock.
"Holy crap! The young city lord has been killed!"
"How dare this woman? Isn't she afraid of the city lord's retaliation?"
"Perhaps they have powerful connections and aren't afraid at all?"
"Hmm... that makes sense."
An old man kindly advised, "Young lady, you'd better run away quickly. If the city lord finds out you killed his son, he won't let you off the hook."
The Devil Master glanced at the old man, but neither responded nor left.
Seeing this, everyone looked puzzled.
After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the air was thick with the stench of blood, and everyone was too frightened to move.
"Who! Who killed my son!"
At this moment, a middle-aged man with a plump figure and gorgeous clothes, who bore a striking resemblance to the young man from before, entered the inn.
Everyone looked at the middle-aged man, their expressions changing.
"The city lord has arrived!"
"What's wrong with this woman? Why isn't she running away? Does she really have powerful connections, which is why she's not afraid?"
"Nonsense, if she were afraid, she would have left long ago. Since she's not leaving, she's definitely not afraid."
Pfft!
However, the moment the middle-aged man appeared, his head fell to the ground, leaving everyone stunned and dumbfounded.
The Devil Master slowly rose, gazing at the middle-aged man's corpse, and coldly said, "Ant."
She took a step and disappeared into the inn.
After she left, the room erupted in cheers.
"Who is that woman? She's incredibly strong!"
"Yes, the city lord is at the Immortal Lord Realm, yet he was still instantly killed. He's too strong!"
"This incident taught me a lesson: one must always be humble and never arrogant, otherwise, this is the consequence!"
Luo City, Jiade Auction.
Inside a private room, Zhu Shi'an sat on the sofa, leisurely sipping tea. A woman was massaging his shoulders behind him, her face full of enjoyment.
Bang!
At that moment, the door opened, and Yafu walked straight into the private room.
Zhu Shi'an a surge of anger and turned to look. When he saw it was Yafu, he was taken aback for a moment, then calmly asked, "What is it?"
Yafu gestured for the masseuse to leave, and the woman understood, bowed, and then left the private room.
Zhu Shi'an frowned. "What do you mean?"
Yafu said coldly, " The Ten Thousand Artifacts Sect has been destroyed."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Shi'an's pupils contracted sharply, and he exclaimed in astonishment, " The Ten Thousand Artifacts Sect has been destroyed? How is that possible!"
Yafu said expressionlessly, "If you don't believe me, you can check it yourself."
Zhu Shi'an's moods were unpredictable.
Yafu asked, "Do you want to know who destroyed the Ten Thousand Artifacts Sect?"
Zhu Shi'an seemed to realize something, his heart sank, and he remained silent.
Yafu said coldly, "That's right, it's the person you're thinking of."
"Impossible!"
Zhu Shi'an shook his head and said, "How could he possibly destroy the Ten Thousand Artifacts Sect?"
Yafu said, "You may not know, but he is the son of the dean of the Yingtian Academy."
Zhu Shi'an's expression changed drastically.
Before he could recover, Yafu continued, "He's not only the child of the Dean of the Yingtian Academy, but also the current Dean of the Yingtian Academy. Furthermore, his father is the Lord of the Mystic Hall."
"What!"
Upon hearing this news, Zhu Shi'an abruptly stood up, his gaze fixed on Yafu, "Is everything you said true?"
You could detect a hint of panic in his tone.
Yafu said coldly, "I told you, if you don't believe me, you can check. Also, I forgot to tell you, the High Antiquity Li Household was wiped out, and it was Yingtian Academy that did it."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Shiwan felt as if the sky had fallen. His body went limp, and he slumped onto the sofa, his face turning deathly pale.
Yafu said coldly, "You should pray that he doesn't have any hostility towards our Jiade Auction right now, otherwise, my father will never let you off the hook."
She said no more and turned to leave.
Outside the Jiade Auction, Yafu stopped, took a deep breath, then exhaled, and rubbed her head because of a headache.
She had already sensed Su Chen's extraordinary nature back in the Forbidden Land of Death, so she offered him Supreme Card to befriend him. And just as she suspected, Su Chen was indeed remarkable, far exceeding her expectations.
When she heard the news, she was stunned for a long time before she came to her senses.
That's absolutely incredible.
At the same time, she was glad that she had chosen to build a good relationship with Su Chen, but she never expected that the relationship she had worked so hard to build would be ruined by that old guy Zhu Shi'an.
She was furious, but Zhu Shi'an was the supreme elder of Jiade Auction, and there was nothing she could do about it.
This made her feel even more frustrated.
Yafu raised her eyes, a glint of light in them, and said, "No, I have to go and apologize to him in person. I hope he can forgive me."
Inside the bamboo grove of the Yingtian Academy, it was midday, and the sun was shining brightly. Su Chen lay on a rocking chair, basking in the sun.
Shen Li suddenly appeared beside him and bowed respectfully to Su Chen, "Senior, the news has been spread."
Su Chen slowly opened his eyes and nodded. "How is it?"
Shen Li said, "Many powerful figures and prodigies are rushing here."
Su Chen's lips curled up. "That's good. This time, I'm not only going to recruit the most monstrous talent in the world, but also the strongest mentor. I hope my unborn brother will like the gift I've prepared for him."
He looked at Shen Li, "Don't call me senior, from now on you should call me Dean."
Shen Li nodded and said, "Yes, Dean."
He hesitated for a moment, then asked, "What should I do next?"
Su Chen pondered for a moment, then said, "Aren't you a spear cultivator? Then you should establish Spear Institute within the academy, primarily responsible for teaching disciples who specialize in the Spear Dao."
Shen Li nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll go discuss it with Vice Dean Xue Ya."
Su Chen nodded. "Go."
Shen Li nodded, turned around, and disappeared from the spot.
Su Chen seemed to remember something and turned to look at Lin Fan, who was cultivating. " Xiao Fan."
Lin Fan looked at Su Chen, puzzled, and asked, "Master, what's wrong?"
Su Chen said, "Go and call You Youyue and Murong Jingyi from the Alchemy Institute."
Lin Fan nodded, "Okay."
Half an hour later.
Lin Fan led Youyue and Murong Jingyi to the bamboo forest.
Upon seeing Su Chen, Murong Jingyi rushed to his side and exclaimed excitedly, "Big brother!"
Big brother?
Youyue raised an eyebrow, staring at Su Chen, seemingly lost in thought.
