A scream rang out in the hall as Lin Wu's body flew without a fight so that his body crashed into the wall of the hall and left a large hole in the wall that was behind him while his body rolled to the ground after that.
Gu Feng who was watching while planning how to obtain Zhang En's Nine Leaf Purple Grass and Human-shaped Blood Ginseng, he felt worried that this Lin Wu would harm the plan he was planning.
The expressions of Yang Ying, the rest of the group, as well as the attendants of the City Palace Residence depicted expressions like Gu Feng.
Although Lin Wu's cultivation had yet to reach the high-level Swordsman Realm, he was still a mid-level Swordsman realm expert, yet he was sent flying by an eight-year-old child with a single blow.
Similar to the situation in Aowu's shop a few hours before, the spacious hall filled with many people turned silent.
“Nona, Young Master Lin is dead!” One of the Castellan Manor guards who went to check on Lin's condition, came to Yang Ying's side and reported.
"Dead!" Yang Ying's beautiful eyes widened in shock in disbelief.
The Lin Family was one of the upper-class families of Southern prosperity City, and Lin Wu, as one of the descendants of the main branch of the Lin Family, had just been killed.
On the other side of the city, in a main hall of the Palace, a red-robed old man was sitting on the main seat. This old man was none other than the Chief Servant of the Southern Prosperity City Lord, Luo Yun, the Shopkeeper of Aowu.
All of the Elders from the Aowu Shop were present and sat face to face on both sides of the hall table.
“So, what are you all saying is that a little boy killed all of our fifty Aowu Store guards ?!” Luo Yun's face turned dark. He had not expected to receive such bad news after coming out of closed-door practice.
“True, that's the truth, Guru.” Chen Ding stood up from his chair, answering his Master.
Luo Yun's forehead wrinkled deep, “A little boy? Are you sure that only a child attacked them?"
"Right, the Elder of the Autumn Shadow Sect witnessed it head-on." Chen Ding confirmed the answer.
A light flickered in Luo Yun's eyes as he pondered, “A little eight-year-old boy who has the power to kill a high-level swordsman? There were three possibilities; one, this child was actually an expert of the demon race, for practicing a certain type of demon race cultivation technique, whether it was his stature or appearance, he said, their human bodies will be like children. The second possibility is that the child is from the dwarf race." Luo Yun's voice stopped here, observing the face in front of him, "The third possibility is that the child is actually a demonic beast that has evolved into a human form!"
“Devil beasts that have evolved into humans ?!”
“Devil beast Hermit God!”
Breath gasping in shock echoed within the hall.
Chen Ding was dumbfounded, “Teacher, that can't be true, right? Could it be that the six of them are a race of human bwr-bodied demonic beasts?"
The other elders were confused as well, they thought the possibilities were too low.
In general, demonic beasts rarely ventured into cities dense with human populations, because once they were discovered, they would be hunted by all the experts of the human race.
Furthermore, if the other party was truly formed from a demon beast that had evolved, it would be, shouldn't they remain humble rather than cause trouble in a blatant way in a city area during the day? After all, the Southern Prosperity City was not just any city, there were many God Sage realm experts residing there.
Chen Ding replied, "The spies we sent to watch over them just sent a message back a while ago, those people are currently in the Ancient Peak Appraisal Firm building."
"Ancient Peak Appraiser's Phirma?" one of the Elders present jumped up from his chair agitatedly, saying, "Miss Yang Ying went to the Ancient Peak Appraisal Firm this morning, handing over some items to assess."
"What?!" The expressions of everyone in the hall darkened.
"Hurry, hurry, report to the Ruler's Palace!" Luo Yun directly gave the order to his disciple Chen Ding, realizing that any situation could be heading in an unexpected direction.
"Good Teacher!" Chen Ding complied and directly left the hall with quick steps.
“All of you, follow me immediately to the Ancient Peak Appraisal Firm!” Furthermore, Luo Yun shouted out orders to all of the Aowu Shop Elders back then as well.
Luo Yun immediately gathered all of the Aowu Shop Elders and set off towards the location of the Ancient Peak Appraisal Firm in an enormous aura pressure, leaving a trail of dust behind them.
At the same time, within the hall of the Ancient Peak Appraiser Firm, Xiao Tian's little fist continued to swing vigorously. With each swing of his fist, there would be City Palace guards sent flying out of the building.
Before the horrified faces of Yang Ying, Gu Feng, and the others, before long, not a single guard remained standing in their place. They were either thrown out of the building, or thrown into the corner of the hall, on the street, or rolled up to the back area of the hall.
A suffocating silence enveloped the entire hall.
Amidst this silence, Zhang En retraced his steps, returned to the same place he had sat before, and sat there. Then, he pointed to boss Gu Feng, "You, come here."
Gu Feng's heart almost jumped out of his chest, with his legs already shaking, he somehow managed to walk all the way to where Zhang En was.
Zhang En once again took out the Nine Leaves Purple Grass and the Human-shaped Blood Ginseng before, placing it on the table.
“Boss Gu, Nine Leaf Purple Grass and Human-shaped Blood Ginseng that you checked before, are you sure now the age of both is really only ten thousand years?”
Zhang En's gaze was like a dagger that could stab Gu Feng at any moment.
Gu Feng was as if unable to bring out words from feeling extremely frightened, "That, that's the age of those two materials by a little over ten thousand years."
A sharp glint flashed across Zhang En's eyes, even at the current situation, this boss of the Ancient Peak Appraisal Firm still dared to trick him without batting an eye.
"Is that so?" Zhang En's voice showed no joy, "Do you think I don't know that this Nine Leaves Purple Grass and Human-shaped Blood Ginseng is nearly forty thousand years old?"
As those words rang out in Gu Feng's ears, his legs became weak and limp.
“Young Master, I, I, I made a mistake a moment, that, actually the age of these two materials is almost forty thousand years!” Gu Feng's knees were already trembling even more.
"Mitting error?" Zhang En sneered.
Right at this moment, a loud whistling wind sound came from outside the hall. In an instant, a group of people led by a red-robed old man and his head filled with gray hair appeared in front of everyone in the hall.
"Master Luo Yun!" The expression of despair, fear, and despair on Gu Feng's face vanished like the sun that appeared behind the clouds as he looked at the old man.
Gu Feng felt like he had just run a round at the door of death.
Needless to say, Luo Yun was a Divine Swordsman realm expert.
Luo Yun secretly felt relieved seeing Yang Ying unharmed when he arrived, "Miss, are you alright?"
"I'm fine." Yang Ying's feeling became calm as if he found his pillar of strength.
Gu Feng, who was kneeling in front of Zhang En, turned to look towards Luo Yun. Then he quickly got up and approached Luo Yun to seek security on Luo Yun's side, "Master Luo, you must save me."
