Seeing them withdraw, Guan Xilin wanted to uproot them completely. However, Feng Jiu stopped him.
“Big Brother, don’t chase them.” She looked deeply at those wounded men in black who had escaped. Dozens of them that were now reduced to less than a dozen people escaped in embarrassment. Since they had been seriously injured this time, they should not trouble her this short period of time.
But, who sent these assassins? Did she offend anyone here?
Once this idea emerged, a figure appeared in her mind. She was not sure about it, however.
“Young Master Feng, you’re hurt. Is it serious?” City Lord Duan stepped forward and asked. Feng Jiu fought several Celestial Strong Exponents alone. Even though he didn’t know how they fought inside, it was obvious that Feng Jiu had the upper hand.
This made him shocked and astonished. He thought Feng Jiu just had good medical skills, but he didn’t expect him to have amazing combat power as well as being a Nascent Soul peak level strong exponent.
Feng Jiu obviously wasn’t at the Celestial level, but she could fight against those people who were at the Celestial early stage. Such combat power was undoubtedly very terrifying.
“I’m alright.” She glanced at the wounds on her body. “They’re just small wounds.” She apologized to City Lord Duan and Meng Family Head. “I’ve caused troubles to you.”
“Young Master Feng, you exaggerated. It’s us who didn’t give you any help.” The two dignitaries replied immediately.
“Let’s go back first! Bandage your wound.” Guan Xilin said. Then, he told City Lord Duan, “City Lord, I’ll take her back to the manor.”
“Yes, yes. I’ll send guards to escort you there.” Once the City Lord said this, Guan Xilin immediately waved his hand to stop him. “There’s no need. It’s enough to have me as the guard.” He took Feng Jiu to leave first.
The City Lord and Meng Family Head watched him carry the large sword dripping with blood, protecting Feng Jiu and turning away. They could not help looking at the bodies of the two Celestial Strong Exponents who had been cut off at the waist. They looked at the bloody scene, they both gulped at the same time.
Also, with Guan Xilin’s protection, coupled with the valiant combat power of Feng Jiu, what’s their use to protect them?
Feng Jiu and Guan Xilin left. After Duan Family Head left his subordinates to help deal with the corpses. Then, he sent his father back to the manor.
The two Saint ranked alchemists who previously tried to put Feng Jiu into trouble had already hid much earlier. They didn’t dare show their faces. The same happened with other alchemists in pill refining and alchemists in pharmacy.
In case of assassination, they didn’t want to be investigated. They didn’t care about other things.
Luckily for them, Feng Jiu didn’t bother with them and ignored them directly. When the City Lord Duan saw this, he would not deliberately mention it. After all, the two men were also Saint ranked alchemists, so they had to give them face anyway.
Finally, the crowd left and the corpses on the ground were taken away. However, the blood-stained ground and the air reeking of blood that still lingered in their noses for a long time made all of them unable to calm down
Returning to the City Lord Manor, Guan Xilin sent Feng Jiu directly to her room. He asked her to take off her outer coat to look at the wound. When her red coat was taken off, he saw her inner robes were dyed red with blood. Guan Xi Lin’s eyes shrank.
“How could you shed so much blood?” Because it was originally red, he thought it was just a small wound. He didn’t expect the wound to shed so much blood.
“My shoulder bone was slashed by a sword. It’s pretty deep. Everything else is alright.” She smiled, but her voice seemed tired and powerless.
