The Ruler
176. Nan Ma's.


In the world of the soul.


The fifteen figure elders who entered the place were beaten by Long Yu Wei of his entourage to a pulp and were completely helpless.


After being content to torture the elders. Yuan Bai and his entourage then chained the captives and put them in a western prison.


" You who have been sealed by the soul chain, keep an eye on this entourage. " Yuan Bai said to Wu Dong and Wu Ming, who were also battered.


" Ba-baik sir," replied simultaneously.


After making sure all the captives would not fight back, Yuan Bai and Yuan Hei then sealed the place and left.


*****


Outside the world of the soul.


The ground floor of the Flower Xi inn.


Some of the secret guards in charge of protecting the place, were so astonished to see some groups keep coming. However they were even more shocked when they saw Nan Du who came down from the third floor single-handedly without any cultivation strength.


Not long after, Ji Dao and Xian Ba also descended from the third floor, then left the inn.


" Brother is this my feeling, isn't it that the three figures who left earlier were figures with a fifth level semi-immortal strength."


" right. They were elders who had come with the two young masters before. There's been chaos, but I don't even feel a trace of the fight."


" We'd better check it out" said one of the guards.


" Good." Then it moved away from its place, inspecting every hallway and room that was on the second floor and the third floor of the inn.


*****


In the inn room.


Qing Ruo sat quietly, while enjoying her drink, looking at Ji Jiu and Xian Guo who were speechless with bodies lying helplessly. From the two broken hands and feet, fresh blood continued to flow, to inundate the floor of the inn.


" The safety of your lives is determined by how fast your parents come," Qing Ruo said as she took out a golden apple and a bodhi fruit, then enjoyed the fruit casually.


Just the sudden action of Qing Ruo who took out the two fruits shocked Ji Jiu and Xian Guo.


" I know you must be so curious about these fruits. You need to know that all the fruits that were auctioned before were mine," Qing Ruo explained, making the two figures who could now only move their eyes dumbfounded.


Realizing that Qing Ruo was a figure who had those fruits made them so upset. But what power, fighting pum already can not. Even they could now only regret themselves, for having offended such a merciless figure of Qing Ruo.


Not long after the two fruits were finished enjoying, Qing Ruo then took out the evolved peach immortal, then returned to enjoying it casually.


Watching Qing Ruo who had been enjoying the immortal fruits without being affected by the strength of the fruit, made them even more aware that Qing Ruo's figure was an extremely terrifying person.


Using the rest of his strength and ignoring the overwhelming pain on his body, Xian Guo forced himself to speak.


" Tu-tuan, who are you really?"


" Do you think?"


" Tu-tuan, are you from the south?" ji Jiu asked, chiming.


" Why can you think like that?" qing Ruo asked, making the two figures speechless.


By the time they were about to speak, suddenly the door of the room was knocked by someone.


" Sir, is there anyone inside?"


" Yes, sir, what's wrong?" Qing Ruo asked calmly.


" We're the inn's security guard, sir, want to check things out inside."


" A moment sir," Qing Ruo replied, while making a hand seal, creating an illusion shield, then casually got up from her seat, opening the door of the room.


In front of the room door, stood two guards who were fourth level semi-eternal warriors, who were inspecting the room from the front door of the room.


" Sir, has something happened?" qing Ruo asked.


" No sir, we are just doing a routine check" the guard replied reasoned.


Qing Ruo nodded her head, inviting the guard into the room, but they immediately refused.


" I'm sorry, sir, we're not long. Sorry for interrupting your rest" he said then left Qing Ruo.


After the two guards left. Qing Ruo then closed the door of the room, and sat back down on her chair.


" Swhus...." The illusory shield vanished unnoticed by Ji Jiu and Xian Guo.


In front of Qing Ruo. Ji Jiu and Xian Guo could only stare at the situation before him in agape, as the two guards did not even notice their whereabouts and the chaos that was going on inside the room.


Not long after, Ji Dao and Xian Ba entered the room with a young man who was a second-rate semi-immortal swordsman.


" Sister, what's going on?" The young man asked in surprise, looking at Ji Jiu and Xian Guo who were now sprawled dead. But what made him even more surprised was the attitude of Ji Dao and Xian Ba who were previously so friendly now became indifferent.


" Ji Dao, is he Nan Ma?" Qing Ruo asked, making the figure set his gaze on Qing Ruo who was sitting casually on her chair.


" Right sir," replied Ji Dao.


Qing Ruo nodded her head.


" Nan Ma, what do you understand from the situation you see now?" qing Ruo asked.


" You mean, sir?"


" Didn't you see Ji Jiu and Xian Guo?"


Hearing Qing Ruo's words, Nan Ma who finally noticed Ji Dao and Xian Ba's changing attitude instantly kept her distance.


" Swhus.." the figure moved while releasing a tread attack on the wall of the room.


" Dhuar.." a loud explosion echoed with his figure bouncing up to hit the wall of the other room.


" Uhk...." Fresh blood came out of his mouth with his body drenched in blood. 


" Ji Dao, Xian Ba, destroy his cultivation," Qing Ruo told the two elders.


" Elder, what do you want to do.." Nan Ma said in fear.


The backlash from the tread blow that was released on the room wall to escape from the place earlier had actually severely injured him, thus rendering him completely helpless.


" Older, no..." His shout tried to dodge the moment Xian Ba unleashed his tread attack.


" Dhuar.." once again his body was thrown to the wall of the room.


" A-h...." His moaning was in pain, with his strength slowly disappearing from his body.


" Te-old, you guys.." he said in fear as Ji Dao approached him with a sharp look.


" Swhuss.." his figure grabbed the body and threw it between Ji Jiu and Xian Guo. Without orders from Qing Ruo, Xian Ba broke both his arms and legs.


" Akh.." cried out in pain.


" Brother, shut up. Or the young man pulled your tongue." Ji Jiu reminded, making Nan Ma speechless.


" Nan Ma, I've promised Nan Du that I won't make trouble with the Nan clan, but I won't let go of you just like that. After all it would be unfair if I only left Ji Jiu and Xian Guo, while you were free just like that" Qing Ruo said casually.


After the place calmed down. Qing Ruo then opened the soul world dimensional gate.


" You two, go, go" he said giving orders to Ji Dao and Xian Ba to enter the soul world.


" Good sir."


" Swhus... swhuss.." his figure vanished from the sight of the three dying young men.
