The Sword God of the Universe-Chapter 153: Dare to Make Trouble and You’ll Be Eliminated

Chapter 153: Chapter 153: Dare to Make Trouble and You’ll Be Eliminated

Duyang City was boiling over with the news.

"Donglin City Martial Artists raided the Wei Family, slaying their genius Wei Leng, their top manager Wei Ming, and their strongest, the Great Elder Wei Zhenzhi?"

"Who exactly is this Jing Yan?"

"What? Just a young Martial Artist not even twenty years old from Donglin City’s Jing Family?"

"Elder Qian Feng of the Qian Family intervened, seeking to kill Jing Yan."

"But at the critical moment, City Lord Bai Xue personally descended to save Jing Yan. Guess what relationship there could be between Jing Yan and Bai Xue City Lord?"

"It’s definitely extraordinary, as Elder Qian Feng of the Qian Family was directly killed by the City Lord just for Jing Yan’s sake!"

In every teahouse and tavern in the city, any place where Martial Artists gathered, everyone was eagerly spreading this astounding news.

"Did the City Lord actually kill Qian Family’s Second Elder, Qian Feng? Then she’s in trouble, right? Elder Qian Feng being among the top three in the Qian Family’s hierarchy, and just like that, he was killed, the Qian Family will surely not just let this go!"

"That’s right. Although in name, the City Lord controls our Duyang City, the Qian Family is the number one family in Duyang City, ingrained here for a thousand years. As I know, even Lanqu County City has deep ties with the Qian Family. It’s likely, even the City Lord will need to give an explanation to pacify this matter."

"..."

All the Martial Artists in Duyang City knew, the Qian Family was not to be provoked.

The Qian Family was not just \simply having Dao Spirit Realm strength; like the Zhao Family in Donglin City, they too had connections within the influential families of Lanqu County City.

How terrifying and powerful were these influential families of Lanqu County City? Although Duyang City was directly governed by Lanqu County City Lord Mansion, if the Qian Family sought action, even the Prince of Lanqu County City might intervene directly.

Many believed that this incident with City Lord Bai Xue had brought great trouble upon herself.

...

Inside Duyang City Lord Mansion.

Bai Xue, bringing Jing Yan and Liu Xiaoyue, returned here.

In one of the rooms, Bai Xue ordered people to look after Liu Xiaoyue.

"Jing Yan, your woman is severely injured; for now, let her heal here. Moreover, your own injuries aren’t light," Bai Xue, standing in the room, looked at Jing Yan with an expressionless face.

"Jing Yan, really... I knew Wei Zhenzhi, in the Late Innate Realm of Cultivation. You actually managed to kill even Wei Zhenzhi," said Bai Xue, clearly taken aback.

She knew Jing Yan was strong. Initially, in Sinful Canyon, Jing Yan managed to evade the attacks of the Golden Throne Guard, demonstrating his significant strength. But she hadn’t expected that Jing Yan could even kill a Martial Artist like Wei Zhenzhi.

As Bai Xue watched Jing Yan, her heart was not as calm as her face. Knowing Jing Yan’s age—definitely under twenty—to be able to kill Wei Zhenzhi, what could his future hold? Jing Yan’s potential was immensely immeasurable.

"City Lord, I was able to kill Wei Zhenzhi, partly due to luck," Jing Yan chuckled.

His killing of Wei Zhenzhi indeed depended on considerable luck. If Wei Zhenzhi hadn’t been so careless to allow him to draw near, Jing Yan probably would not have managed to kill him.

Jing Yan frowned, then looked at Bai Xue and said, "City Lord, killing Qian Family Elder Qian Feng could bring significant trouble! The Qian Family is the first family in Duyang City; they probably have deep connections in Lanqu County City too!"

Jing Yan didn’t understand much about the Qian Family, but he knew, just like Zhao Family in Donglin City had intricate relations in Lanqu County City, the Qian Family likely wasn’t any different.

Just the Qian Family alone might not pose much threat to City Lord Bai Xue, but if the connections in Lanqu County intervened, the consequences could be severe.

"The Qian Family indeed has connections in Lanqu County City," Bai Xue actually smiled a little, "but, I don’t care. If Qian Tianluo dares show up, I would simply expel the Qian Family from Duyang City."

Bai Xue said this with a nonchalant tone.

Upon hearing this, Jing Yan was stunned.

If Qian Tianluo dares show up, I would simply expel the Qian Family from Duyang City? This Qian Tianluo must be the Clan Leader of the Qian Family.

Such words, immensely frightening to hear.

If it wasn’t for two previous interactions with this City Lord, Jing Yan would have definitely thought the City Lord was merely boasting.

Because Jing Yan knew very well, a city’s City Lord, though ostensibly the Controller of the city, couldn’t just eliminate the influencial families at will. Just like if Donglin City’s City Lord tried to directly deal with several top families, the ensuing consequences might even be unbearable for the City Lord.

What gave Bai Xue City Lord such confidence?

Jing Yan observed the fairy-like Bai Xue with a slightly stunned expression.

"Jing Yan, you need not worry for me," Bai Xue saw Jing Yan’s expression and a slight smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

That, if seen by others, many would probably think they were hallucinating seeing City Lord Bai Xue smile.

Bai Xue City Lord smiling?

Even the people in the City Lord Mansion, who wouldn’t think that Bai Xue City Lord never smiles?

"Jing Yan, here are two Revitalizing Pills; use one for yourself and give the other to your woman," Bai Xue then took out a jade bottle and handed it to Jing Yan.

Revitalizing Pill?

Jing Yan’s expression shifted slightly.

An elixir, even the low-level ones, were immensely precious, and Revitalizing Pills, far superior to low-level elixirs, held an astonishing value.

Generally, martial artists in the Innate Realm, if injured, absolutely couldn’t afford Revitalizing Pills. Naturally, the healing effects of Revitalizing Pills were also incredibly profound. With one Revitalizing Pill, Liu Xiaoyue’s life was sure to be spared, although her Martial Arts Meridians couldn’t be directly restored.

"Enough talk, you helped me kill the Golden Throne Guard, effectively doing me a great favor. That particular Golden Throne Guard was special; its value surpasses your imagination. A drop of Divine Beast Essence Blood, which has great use for me, can be extracted from its body. So these two elixirs, they really aren’t much," Bai Xue put the jade bottle on the table as she spoke.

Divine Beast Essence Blood was a very rare Cultivation Resource. Generally, even from a real Divine Beast, extracting essence blood is difficult, with very few Divine Beasts allowing for successful extraction, and the probability is extremely low.

Especially since the Golden Throne Guard was not a true Divine Beast but only a Pseudo Divine Beast positioned between Spiritual Beast and Divine Beast, the chance of extracting Divin
