187: Chapter 185: Kind of Embarrassed 187: Chapter 185: Kind of Embarrassed Baili An’s head, under the astonished and stunned gazes of the crowd, solidly knocked against the boundary marker. Logically speaking, with his corpse demon body, he shouldn’t have been so fragile, but this was an object of the Immortals, clearly extraordinary. Just moments ago, Fang Geyu, full of vigor and ready to stride grandly into the city, now sported a foul expression. Indeed, he even emitted a hint of killing intent. Ming Yuanji, having his cheek slapped by a junior, was initially stunned, then his gaze gradually darkened. He raised his head and looked at Fang Geyu, lowering his voice, “Is the Third Miss blaming her subordinate?” “The blood of those not descendants of Immortals, who touch the boundary marker, will inevitably be pursued to death by the giant warriors guarding the city; you are challenging me by touching my people right in front of me,” Fang Geyu coldly said. “‘The Third Miss’s people’?” Ming Yuanji laughed as well, his gaze towards Baili An cold and chilling, “We hail from Tiangge City and truly belong to the Third Miss. This outsider who has been taken in as a Guest Cultivator represents an appointment in the great test. If his strength were formidable, fitting to serve the Third Miss, it would be fine, but now I merely tried to test him, yet he is in such a sorry state. Such a useless person, how could he serve the Third Miss? I was thinking of the Third Miss’s best interest with my action to probe him. If he had crossed the boundary marker, his spot would have been secured, but now, while this garbage has not yet formally entered the city, it is only proper for the Miss to replace his spot in time.” The gazes of the other three also carried doubt and disdain towards Baili An. “In that case, you were acting for the benefit of this young lady?” Fang Geyu said coolly. “I only wish for the Miss to successfully seize the esteemed position of City Lord of the Immortal City, not allowing anyone to hinder her by padding the numbers,” Ming Yuanji declared. Fang Geyu no longer spoke; from her Qiankun Bag, she took out an object and threw it at Chai Ye’s face. When Chai Ye saw what was thrown at him, his expression immediately turned extremely ugly. A Black Writ. It was actually a Black Writ! An Siqi also changed color, her voice shrill, “Third Miss, this is a Black Writ!” “This is a person you brought out, I’ll leave it to you to handle, no need to spill blood, I dislike mess, make it clean,” Fang Geyu coldly stated. Not needing to spill blood, just making it clean, the implication was all too clear. Ming Yuanji finally could not smile any longer and roared, “Third Miss, for a stranger, you’d actually slaughter your own city’s people?!” “I don’t need disobedient dogs,” Fang Geyu stated flatly. The words made all four reveal expressions of pain. Chai Ye wore an unpleasant look but still tried to speak in as soft a voice as possible, “Miss, the grand examination is imminent. If we are short of hands at this moment, it will hugely impact your chances of securing the position of City Lord. Perhaps first let Ming Yuanji assist the Miss and then go to Tiangge City for punishment.” Fang Geyu smiled slightly, patted his shoulder, and said coolly, “So it seems, in the eyes of you people, this young lady is very approachable, huh.” Without waiting for Chai Ye to say anything else, she continued, “With the Black Writ already issued, is there a need for you to be loquacious? If you cannot carry out this young lady’s command, what use does Shifang City have to keep you disobedient wastes?!” Chai Ye’s face paled, his gaze heavy as he looked at Ming Yuanji and sighed, “You truly do not know how to act properly. With the Miss here, how dare you make such a disturbance?” Ming Yuanji’s lips were already frightfully pale, his expression dazed. He could never have anticipated, at such a critical moment, the Miss would truly sever her own limb. If Chai Ye had taken action, how could he have survived today? With the Black Writ issued, the recipient must comply as if it were an imperial decree. Otherwise, it’s equivalent to forsaking their status as a servant of Shifang City. Baili An suddenly let out a soft sigh, “Maybe we shouldn’t go about it this way?” Fang Geyu’s gaze was mocking, yet she no longer aggressively pressed the issue. Ming Yuanji, his gaze brightening, finally found a glimmer of hope and hurriedly said, “I was wrong earlier, this young gentleman is magnanimous, not bearing to see his fellow disciples hurt one another, truly generous. The favor today, I must repay another day.” The expressions of the remaining four also eased, thinking the young fellow knew how to handle the situation. Following the Miss’s intention, forcing them to kill Ming Yuanji would certainly resolve the immediate resentment. However, by doing so, once they entered the city, it would surely be akin to setting themselves against these four. Offending four Cultivators from the Sea Expansion Realm was not wise. This young man, unknown from which remote corner he popped out, had actually won the great favor of the young lady. To allocate such a valuable slot to such trash, perhaps he aimed merely to scrape by—to enter the city and absorb the pure Immortal Spirit earth veins for an easy cultivation life. After all, Xianling City isn’t a place just anyone can enter at will. Now, having appeased these few, naturally, he should reciprocate the favor and protect him, shielding him from the Killing Sword of the giant warriors guarding the city, thus preserving his life. Quite a survivor, this one. “Then, young lady, this Black Writ…” Chai Ye said with a smile, handing over the Black Writ, but Baili An unexpectedly took it with a flick of his hand, assuming it was to be handed over for him, politely uttered a thanks and placed the Black Writ into his hands. Surprisingly, the young man kept the Black Writ, and under the startled gazes of everyone, he slipped it into his chest. He gave Chai Ye a polite smile as well and said, “It’s not good to harm fellow disciples, so I’ll do it myself.” Suddenly, the Glazed Umbrella opened, spreading moonlight and emitting blue ghostly flames. A giant White Tiger with flaming eyes lay before him, not giving the crowd any time to react. As Baili An’s smile faded, he calmly said, “No need to spill blood, I dislike mess, make it clean.” These words and tone were strikingly similar to what Fang Geyu had said just before. “Roar—” The commanded Heroic Spirit White Tiger opened its mouth to emit flames, trapping Ming Yuanji in a circle, leaving him no chance to escape. It lunged forward, its mouth as wide as a falling curtain, swallowing both the man and the large patch of earth below in one gulp, not even pausing to chew. Only a fierce large pit remained on the ground. For a moment, everyone was extremely silent. Baili An patted the White Tiger on the head, not giving it a chance to act coy, and withdrew it back into the umbrella. He turned to the crowd with an embarrassed, shy smile, “It’s truly too flattering; I’m not really such a magnanimous person.” “You’re courting death, you little rascal!” Li Beifeng’s eyes turned bloodshot, furiously stepping forward but was stopped by Chai Ye. Seeing Chai Ye lower his brows, he solemnly said, “Thank you, young master, for taking the trouble to act.” Baili An also smiled, “No trouble at all.” Chai Ye said, “The power of the giant warrior is too formidable; we need to conserve strength for the Miss’s test battle, I hope you understand we can’t step in to protect the young master anymore.” Baili An nodded in acknowledgment, “No problem, I see that those two also have no intention of making a move, elder brother, you don’t need to worry about me.” Chai Ye was taken aback, not understanding the meaning, just as Baili An, still bleeding from his forehead, pointed behind everyone. They all turned to look, their pupils trembling and minds shaking violently, their very souls almost frightened to break by the awe-inspiring scene before them. In front of the silent, majestic ancient city, on the quiet, boundless wilderness. Those two ancient warriors, clad in armor, had somehow silently positioned their giant swords into the earth. The giants holding swords, kneeling on one knee, were like paying homage and welcoming a king returning from afar. Fang Geyu’s mouth slowly opened, unable to close for a long time. Lin Yuan covered her mouth, full of disbelief. Baili An closed the umbrella and scratched his head, “It’s actually my first time being worshiped like this, kind of embarrassing.”
