Clearly, the Zhu brothers’ plan wasn’t just a two-man operation.
They were wise enough to know that individuals like Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan would have many trump cards up their sleeves.
So.
For safety, they had allied with some other cultivators on the ship.
Pop! Pop!
As time passed, the fleet Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan were on arrived at a place called Yunbo Seaport.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh—
As the fleet neared the port, seven or eight streaks of light swiftly approached from the distance.
When they got closer, the person in charge of Jiang Chengxuan’s fleet, a False Nascent Soul cultivator, flew out to meet these streaks of light.
After a while.
The seven or eight lights dispersed, and the leader, the False Nascent Soul cultivator, announced to everyone on the ship.
“Fellow cultivators, our journey ends here.
Please gather your belongings. If needed, we shall meet again in the future.”
Following his announcement, numerous figures leapt off the ship, quickly vanishing into the distance on their flying swords.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh—
Only Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan were not in a hurry.
After they got off the fleet, they began to look around.
Not far from the port, about several dozen miles away, there was a small, scattered marketplace set up by independent cultivators.
After a brief stroll through the market, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan headed straight to the nearest immortal city, Seafall City.
This city was under the jurisdiction of a Nascent Soul sect known as the East Sea Sect.
However, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan hadn’t gone far from Seafall City when they suddenly noticed seven or eight streaks of light chasing after them.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh—
With a series of swift whooshing sounds, the Zhu brothers, leading five or six cultivators, blocked their path.
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan glanced at them casually.
Jiang Chengxuan asked indifferently, “What do you want?”
“Hehheh, kid, haven’t you figured it out yet?” sneered Zhu Beihong, the younger of the Zhu brothers.
“Hand over everything you have.
If you do, we can give you a quick death.
Otherwise, hehe…”
His words trailed off as his gaze shifted suggestively over Shen Ruyan.
That look made Shen Ruyan’s eyes turn cold.
Without any visible movement from her, Zhu Beihong, who had just been sneering and talking non-stop, suddenly found himself enveloped in a burst of lightning.
Then, a scream of agony filled the air.
Silver, blue, and red electric arcs burst out from Zhu Beihong’s eyes, nose, mouth, and ears.
In just an instant, his entire body turned into charred remains, dead beyond doubt.
This scene stunned everyone present, especially Zhu Beiyuan, Zhu Beihong’s elder brother.
He was well aware of his younger brother’s strength, who had once managed to escape from a False Nascent Soul cultivator.
Yet now, they hadn’t even seen how Shen Ruyan had made her move before Zhu Beihong was reduced to a charred corpse.
The power of their adversaries was terrifying beyond imagination.
The others, not being fools, realized they had kicked an iron plate.
They immediately started apologizing to Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, including Zhu Beiyuan.
“Seniors, it was all a misunderstanding. It was all my brother’s fault; he was deluded and forced us to intercept you. We beg for your forgiveness and hope you won’t hold this against us.”
“Absolutely, it was all a misunderstanding.
I am an elder of the Yuejian Pavilion, and I beg you to spare us in consideration of my sect.”
Another man, dressed in dark blue, also spoke apologetically.
The rest followed suit, explaining and apologizing.
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, of course, didn’t buy their excuses.
Over the years, they had encountered all kinds of people.
Therefore, in the next moment,
Shen Ruyan raised her hand.
Boom!
A bolt of lightning suddenly struck from the sky.
Zhu Beiyuan and the others didn’t even have time to react before they were hit by the lightning.
In the blink of an eye, six or seven charred bodies fell from the sky.
At the same time.
In Seafall City, a middle-aged scholar sensed the commotion from afar and his expression shifted subtly.
He was Pei Zhenhao, a Nascent Soul cultivator from the East Sea Sect, responsible for guarding Seafall City.
Noticing the disturbance, he thought for a moment and then flew towards the location of Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.
Back at the scene,
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan were about to continue towards Seafall City when they looked up and saw a streak of light rapidly approaching from the distance.
They recognized that the incoming person was a third-level Nascent Soul cultivator, likely the guardian cultivator of Seafall City.
He must have sensed the disturbance and was coming to investigate.
