Chapter 25: Remember this pain...
Chapter 25: Remember this pain...
Soon, Tang Yin and Huang Feifei were walking out of the alchemist association, they were wearing cloaks that covered them completely, as well as two masks on both of their faces, as they followed Xie Meiyu.
Perhaps there were better options to get out of here, being that Xie Meiyu was a Spirit King, but since she only said this option, then they would use this option to leave.
Soon they walked down the main street and arrived at the exit, but this place was filled with guards.
All the gates in the city were full of guards, but this one, being the main gate, had three times as many guards. Plus, most of the cultivators are from those families.
Just when the three arrived there, they were stopped.
--"Miss, may I know who you are and where you are going? Also, right now we are looking for some assassins who killed several young masters in the city, so I will ask your two companions to take off their hoods." Said one of them, but Xie Meiyu let out a snort with her mouth.
--"Hmph, Little guards want to stop me and make my companions show themselves? Looks like they're tired of living." She said coldly, letting go of some of the power from herself that scared the guards, and they backed off a little.
--"Miss, I beg you to cooperate, if you don't, we will treat you as guilty!" Shouted one of the Huang Family cultivators, they are overbearing in this city because they are one of the two most powerful families here.
But Xie Meiyu found this somewhat amusing.
--"Haha, since when is this little Huang Family so impressive, that they dare to say that to this Miss?" she asked mockingly, but several more people arrived when she finished saying this.
Among those, Lord Huang was present.
--"What's going on?" he asked. Attracting the attention of those who were here. Next to him came a person wearing a cloak as well, with his face completely covered.
When the guards and cultivators saw him, they quickly rejoiced.
--"Mr. Huang, this person here does not want to cooperate. There are certainly 2 people with hoods behind her and a mask, but they don't want to cooperate in taking it off so that we can see if they are the wanted or not." Said the cultivator who had spoken earlier, while ignoring what Xie Meiyu had said.
This made her frown a little.
Of course, this was a scenario she had expected. She would be surprised if it didn't happen. But still, she was a little annoyed at being ignored like that.
She had never been ignored like that before.
Still, she was going to put up with it for now.
Lord Huang was surprised and looked at the people in question.
--"Oh? Is that so?" he asked and looked at the person to the side of him, he wondered if they might be the same as him, but seeing that he wasn't paying attention to her, he guessed that they weren't, so he relaxed.
--"Let me handle it." Lord Huang said and approached the three standing in the middle of the guards.
--"Gentlemen, I introduce myself, I am the leader of the Huang Family, some know me as Lord Huang, we are currently looking for some assassins who killed several young masters in the city, including some nephews of mine. We don't think it's you of course, but in order to leave the city currently it is necessary for you to reveal your faces." He said amicably with a calm smile on his face.
But what he received was a sneer from Xie Meiyu.
--"As I said, I don't care about the death of some useless young masters and you can't make me do as you ask. I suggest you get out of the way; you don't have what it takes to stop me." Xie Meiyu said coldly and prepared to walk, but just then, one more person appeared from behind them.
--"Oh? I didn't know there was anyone in our city who could ignore the rules like that, why don't you come forward? By the way, this investigation is allowed by us, the Divine Sun Hall." Said this man as he walked over and stood beside Lord Huang, the latter nodded to him, and Xie Meiyu was surprised that even these guys were already into this.
'So quick bribed them or did they just find out about something?' she thought in surprise and frowned a little.
Just as she was about to speak, another person stepped in it was that man who was behind Lord Huang earlier.
--"I don't think there is anyone else here besides me who can ignore the rules of this city." He said, his voice sounded arrogant and proud, but he didn't sound very old.
After that, he quickly stepped to Lord Huang's side and took off his hood, revealing his young face, and Lord Huang was surprised that he would get into this, but his surprise turned to relief.
With these two people here he was sure to find that guy who humiliated his son, then he smiled and turned to look at Xie Meiyu.
--"Miss, I suggest you not to make a strange move. It's better if you allow us to finish the inspection well." He spoke.
Xie Meiyu only shrugged her shoulders and was about to answer, but someone did it for her.
--"It seems that the Huang Family has become very arrogant solely because they have the support of the Divine Sun and a little Young Master from the capital." He said it was a voice coming from behind all of them and a voice that several here recognized.
--"President of the Association?" asked Mr. Huang and the one who was a member of Divine Sun.
Then they watched as the president of the association walked forward and bowed slightly to Xie Meiyu.
--"I'm sorry, miss. I was a little late." He said, surprising everyone, including the young man standing beside Lord Huang.
'Shit, Miss? does that crazy old man treat her with such respect? Could she be someone high up in the association?' the 3 of them thought quickly.
--"Gentlemen, do you need to go through the investigation?" the one who had just arrived asked.
His presence put weight on these, but still...
The Divine Sun Hall member was not going to back down completely in the face of this guy.
--"It looks like the lady is someone of high standing, I'll back off a bit on this. But, at the very least I suggest that the two of them state their names, with the names and where they are headed, that way we could turn a blind eye, how about it?" he said.
But this made the president of the association a bit angry.
'Does this bastard want to ask the lady's name? Does he think he's worthy?' he thought to himself angrily.
--"Bastard, even if you are the president of this branch of the…" He said but stopped in the middle of his words because Xie Meiyu tapped his shoulder to stop him from saying anything else.
Then she looked at the 3 of them mockingly.
--"Mr. Huang is also on the boat about what the Hall Chairman said?" she asked with a smile.
Lord Huang understood what she meant, but before deciding, he looked at the person next to him, and he nodded to him, then relaxed.
--"Of course, we think alike." He said firmly.
'It seems she doesn't dare to offend the Divine Sun Hall either.' He thought to himself after replying.
Xie Meiyu then smiled and turned her face to nod to Tang Yin behind her. He shrugged his shoulders.
There were better ways out, but since she wanted to use this one, then this one he would use.
After seeing her nod to him, Tang Yin reached into the sleeve of his clothes and pulled out the token she had given him earlier.
Just then, he showed it forward as he walked four steps forward.
Just seeing this token appear was enough to stun three people: the two presidents of both the Association and the Hall and the young man next to Mr. Huang.
They were all stunned at the sight of the token.
The president of the association was deeply stunned.
'Shit, that Young Master had such a high rank?' He thought to himself in astonishment upon seeing this was no longer surprised that Xie Meiyu treated him with such respect...
--"Does it look like we need to show our identities?" Xie Meiyu asked.
Lord Huang, who had not seen the reaction of the other three and was unaware of this token, frowned.
--"Miss, do you want to make fun of us, agh..." But just before he could finish speaking, he was slapped hard on his cheek by the young man standing to the side.
--"Shut up, you bastard, how dare you talk to such an exalted person like that!?" the young man shouted as he slapped him and immediately bowed deeply to Xie Meiyu and Tang Yin.
--"I'm sorry, Elder, I didn't expect such an exalted person like you to be in this small town!" He said with his voice somewhat trembling and afraid.
Xie Meiyu saw him like this and scoffed.
--"Hmph, it looks like your Huang Family has a lot of guts. I wonder what Patriarch Huang would think if he heard about this." She said but did not wait for answers and instead looked at the president of the association.
--"As of today, no more pills or spirit herbs will be sold to the Huang Family in this city." She said coldly, something that was bound to scare Lord Huang and the young man who was bowing before her to death, but he said absolutely nothing against it.
But the president was surprised by this.
--"Are you sure, miss? They…" He spoke, but before he could finish, Xie Meiyu looked at him sternly.
--"An Elder has decided, do you want to go against his orders?" She said coldly, and the president fell silent and only nodded.
--"Yes, miss, Elder." He replied quickly.
Lord Huang wanted to speak, but seeing the Young Head Master of his Family like this, he swallowed everything he wanted to say.
Xie Meiyu then looked at the guy who was still bowing before them.
--"It's okay with you, isn't it?" she asked with a smirk. This guy didn't dare to say no.
--"Of course, if it's an Elder's decision, so be it." He replied, then Xie Meiyu shrugged her shoulders and started walking again.
She didn't care much about this, but after moving for a few steps, she stopped and looked at everyone here again.
--"Right, you people who are so arrogant and think that you are the leaders of this place, do you think that, if I didn't have an Elder on my side, you would still be able to stop me?" She said with a smile, and immediately her body glowed a bit in a fiery red color, and moved her arm horizontally.
Right at that moment, a huge Emperor Bear appeared behind her with a
roar that scared everyone here, and she then stomped heavily on the ground, opening a small hole in it, moreover, the pressure that came out from this blow pushed everyone back, although she prevented it from touching Tang Yin and Huang Feifei.
When everyone here saw that she had summoned her Spirit Weapon they were stunned by the enormous force she was giving off from her body and could only bring their arms forward in an attempt to defend themselves.
It was a pressure that none of them could have expected to appear in this small city.
Moreover, just at that moment, the Emperor Bear behind her roared loudly, and five parts of her body lit up in orange.
The 5 Main Spiritual Bones of Xie Meiyu lit up at the same time and immediately formed five arrays in the shapes of broken rings on one side, some were bigger than others, and following that, they wrapped around her right arm that was raised, as if they were snakes that want to choke their prey, but they stayed still in one place, moving in circles with an orange light constantly flashing.
It seemed as if they were living tattoos glowing with a light of their own.
That's when Xie Meiyu looked at them coldly, and her eyes flickered with a flash of fire.
Everything calmed down at that moment.
The Emperor Bear behind her obediently stayed in place, and Xie Meiyu then spoke.
--"If I wanted to get out of here, little flies like you couldn't help it, how did your ego get so high, to think that you can do whatever you want? Remember this pain before you think of doing idiocy..." She said coldly and immediately moved her right arm towards them vertically, and immense pressure girded on each of them while Xie Meiyu's eyes flashed with fervor.
"AGHH!"
"Aghhh!"
*TUMB*
Several screams were heard coming from all of these, and then many of them fell to their knees.
The most powerful ones here looked at her in terror.
'Shit... This is... Spirit Pressure... She's a Spirit King!' they shouted in their minds as they held on tightly so as not to fall completely to the ground.
Seeing this, Xie Meiyu then smirked and erased her spiritual pressure, then turned around and started walking again.
--"Looks like the capital needs a visit..." She said as she was leaving, and Tang Yin laughed at that moment.
--"Haha, I'll take care of it. There are a lot of arrogant people everywhere lately." He said, but although his voice came from inside his hood, the voice didn't sound like his. In fact, it sounded like an old man.
Even Xie Meiyu was astonished by this.
'Shit, he can even change his voice...' She thought looking at him out of the corner of her eye in amazement.
After they left, the president of the association left as well and the president of the hall disappeared from the place even before him. He left as soon as the pressure was off, that's when the young man stood up almost trembling. But instead of steadying himself, he stood up to slap Mr. Huang.
--"You bastard, do you want to take me down with you? When I return to the Capital, I'll have my father punish you for this, Are you crazy? How can you not recognize the token of an Elder? And why the hell weren't you aware of this?" he said, throwing out several scolding questions in the process.
Lord Huang was startled when he heard that this was the token of an Elder and bowed even more.
--"I'm sorry, Young Senior Master." He spoke.
--"Was it really an Elder of the Association?" he asked after getting up and making sure that this guy was not so angry with him, the Young Master nodded.
--"No doubt about it. Forget this and avoid coming into contact with the association for now. Even that Miss' claim of not selling herbs to us is fine for us. A Spirit King...
Shit, although she is weaker than my father, the strength behind her is surely immense, since she is very young and seems to be an alchemist." He said in a panic, but after a moment of taking a deep breath to calm himself, he looked at Lord Huang.
--"I know an Elder of the Association and I will ask him to do something about it, for now, stay calm and don't cause us any trouble." He said and then turned to leave quickly.
For meddling where he shouldn't have, he almost offended someone he shouldn't have.
That was dangerous, but luckily it went well, so he wanted to rest.
