After those words, Jiang Xiaobai turned and left, leaving Qin Nianxue standing alone in shock.
By the time she had recovered from her stupor and wanted to voice her anger, a group of a dozen burly men emerged from the surrounding crowd, all their faces twisted into fiendish smirks.
“Qin Nianxue, I’ve waited long enough for you. I never thought you would dare to step out of Four Seas City,” the leader of the burly men roared with laughter.
Seeing so many people storming out, Qin Nianxue’s face turned cold. With a clear ringing sound, she unsheathed the long sword in her hand, warily watching those around her.
“Liu Tian, you sure have guts, daring to attack me here. Aren’t you afraid of my father taking revenge on your Liu Family or the Sword Sea Sect avenging me?” Qin Nianxue shouted coldly.
The leader of the group, Liu Tian, continued laughing, “Hahaha, Qin Nianxue, did you hit your head? Your Qin Family and my Liu Family are somewhat evenly matched in power. Your father dares to strike us down?”
“Besides, don’t think about getting help from the Sword Sea Sect. You’re just a disciple from the outside. You really think the Sword Sea Sect will wage a war for you? Dream on.”
“Did you ever think this day would come the last time you humiliated me? Today, Qin Nianxue, there’s no escape for you. Once I catch you, I’ll have my fun before killing you!”
These assertive words, combined with the cold smirk on Liu Tian’s face and his tongue nervously licking at his lips, made him look incredibly sleazy.
Qin Nianxue squirmed in disgust, but then an idea struck her, and she began to smile.
“Liu Tian, let me tell you, that man is my husband. He is extremely powerful. If you dare to touch me today, he will not let you off,” Qin Nianxue pointed at Jiang Xiaobai and laughed.
Walking away, Jiang Xiaobai suddenly froze, his face, hidden from the crowd, twitched in frustration.
He was getting himself into trouble by getting involved with such a person!
“Humph, and so what? , He is also destined to die today. You guys, go and grab that piece of trash. I want him to watch how I play with his woman.”
Liu Tian’s words were brazen. Though Qin Nianxue was displeased, she was helpless. At this moment, she had to drag Qin Chen into her mess. The enemy was filled with late-golden elixir cultivators; she simply couldn’t fight them all by herself.
Liu Tian’s troops were deployed immediately; one group began to advance towards Qin Nianxue with wicked smirks while the other rushed towards Jiang Xiaobai, aiming to intercept him.
He was the unfortunate collateral damage to a situation he had no hand in. Distraught, Jiang Xiaobai stopped in his tracks.
“Kid, it’s your fault for being Qin Nianxue’s man. Anyone who offends Master Liu will not have a good end,” one of the burly men sneered as he approached Jiang Xiaobai. A strong aura of a late-golden elixir stage cultivator emanated from him.
Jiang Xiaobai remained calm. His fingers came together as a sword aura slashed out.
He had long mastered the divine Sword Technique of the Nine Heavens Star Array to the degree of effortless mastery, making it reach its first realm. With his current level of cultivation, a casual sword aura attack would not be something an opponent could withstand.
Sure enough, the three burly men did not even have time to react before being struck in the middle of their brows by Jiang Xiaobai, dying instantly on the spot.
Liu Tian, who was still laughing and attacking Qin Nianxue, was taken aback when he saw this scene.
“Damn it, who on earth do you think you are? How dare you attack my Liu Family’s men. Are you looking for death?” Liu Tian roared at Jiang Xiaobai.
Jiang Xiaobai still looked indifferent. He did not even glance at Liu Tian. Rather, he was shouting at Qin Nianxue, who was still stuck in melee.
“Saving you once counts as us settling the score.”
After his words, Jiang Xiaobai had already dashed into the crowd. Just as he did so, a series of sword lights flashed past, and the burly men attacking Qin Nianxue were all cut in half.
Seeing this scene, Liu Tian was completely dumbfounded. He looked at Jiang Xiaobai like he had seen a ghost.
“Who…who…who are you?” Liu Tian looked at Jiang Xiaobai in terror.
Jiang Xiaobai responded with a faint smile, “Who am I? Of course, I’m your executioner.”
Just as he was about to make his move, there was a sudden exclamation from behind him.
“Young man, please stay your hand and spare his life!”
It was an elder who had previously stopped Qin Nianxue. He came running over. When he saw Jiang Xiaobai about to kill Liu Tian, he was flustered!
If Liu Tian died, the Qin Family would definitely be in big trouble!
Hearing this, Jiang Xiaobai’s outreached hand paused. He turned his head towards the old man, his brows furrowed, “Old man, you sure have a lot of patience. This brat is getting violent with your miss, and you actually ask me to spare him?”
“Young master, you’re mistaken, Liu Tian can’t die, at least not now!”
The old man smiled bitterly, “If he dies now, it will be a big problem, and all our Qin Family’s efforts will be in vain.”
Jiang Xiaobai shrugged, indicating his understanding, then prepared to turn around and leave.
“Young master, please wait. Today you saved our young miss. We cannot repay you for your life-saving kindness. Please come back with us to the mansion to show our gratitude!” The old man pleaded in a hurry.
Jiang Xiaobai initially wanted to refuse. He did not want any involvement with the Qin Family.
“Young friend, if you’re willing to come back with us, I’ll give you ten million top-grade spirit stones!” Suddenly, the old man shouted this.
Spirit stones, and top-grade ones at that?
Jiang Xiaobai’s heart skipped a beat. With spirit stones, he could cultivate using the Kunpeng Swallowing Sky Skill and rapidly improve his strength!
Compelled by his desperate need to increase his cultivation, Jiang Xiaobai could only agree. Even though it was just ten million top-grade spirit stones, it was better than nothing. This was exactly what Jiang Xiaobai needed most right now.
Even if he was a thousand times unwilling, Jiang Xiaobai could only agree.
Seeing this, the smile on the old man’s face bloomed like a chrysanthemum in full blossom. He immediately led Jiang Xiaobai with a pleased grin towards the Qin Family.
Qin Nianxue’s look softened considerably at this. The annoyance in her eyes when she looked at Jiang Xiaobai was gone, replaced instead by a certain excitement.
The power Jiang Xiaobai displayed earlier indeed excited her. It was a sense of admiration for the strong.
Not long after Jiang Xiaobai followed Qin Nianxue back to Four Seas City, three figures appeared in the barren hills outside of the city.
“Big brother, it’s here!”
“LaoEr, are you sure? We are tens of thousands of miles from Tianyuan City.
Could he have come out this far?”
“Big brother, rest assured, this is a treasure I just got. It can track a general direction. Our appearance here means Jiang Xiaobai is in the vicinity.”
“LaoEr, you track it and see.”
“No need to track, big brother, I guarantee that the lad is around here. His aura is still lingering.”
The three figures that suddenly appeared were none other than the mentally challenged trio dressed in black bandages.
If Jiang Xiaobai saw this scene, he would surely cry in gratitude.. These three idiots had actually managed to track him this far!
