Chapter 190: Change of Mindset
"Very well, everyone may disperse!"
"Remember, do not violate the Dongxuan Edicts of Dongxuan City, or do not blame this Captain for being impolite!"
After executing Luo Jiutian, Xue Yu concealed his trembling hands, which shook from excitement, within his sleeves, glanced around, and spoke lightly.
This was the first Nascent Soul Ancestor he had slain.
Even though Xue Yu's temperament was indifferent, his heart could not be without fluctuation.
The cultivators around who witnessed all this secretly swallowed their saliva and hurriedly replied:
"Yes, yes, yes, we will certainly obey the Dongxuan Edicts."
They were truly frightened by Xue Yu's actions.
That was a Nascent Soul Ancestor, and moreover an Elder of the Huangji Sect; he was killed on the spot.
The cultivators in the arena who witnessed the entire process, even Golden Core experts with higher cultivation than Xue Yu, did not dare to disobey Xue Yu's words at this moment.
Seeing that everyone was sensible,
Xue Yu led his guard squad, ignored Su Jianfeng lying inside the Dongxuan City gate, and returned into Dongxuan City.
Coming to their senses, Jiang Wen, Li Mu, and Liu Feifeng, seeing this, also hurriedly followed behind Xue Yu.
However, on the way, all three could not help but take out their Dongxuan Tokens and grip them tightly, their hearts surging with excitement.
Originally, regarding the effect of the Dongxuan Token, they were still skeptical.
After all, that was a Nascent Soul Ancestor, a existence they previously needed to look up to.
But after this battle, a confidence unprecedented in their hearts arose, and their awe and fervor towards Ye Qingxuan grew even stronger.
On Mount Wanling.
Ye Qingxuan withdrew his gaze and smiled faintly, saying:
"Hehe, this Xue Yu is quite interesting."
A person who spoke little, yet at a critical moment had the courage of a madman.
Ordinary Purple Mansion cultivators, even if Ye Qingxuan told them the effect of the token,
would not dare to rashly attack a Nascent Soul cultivator without verification.
But this madman Xue Yu dared to deliver a killing blow to a Nascent Soul cultivator directly without verification.
After pondering for a moment, Ye Qingxuan waved his large hand.
He directly allocated one million contribution points to Xue Yu and ten thousand contribution points to Jiang Wen.
He, Ye Qingxuan, did not lack spirit stones.
As the first subordinate to withstand the pressure, face a Nascent Soul cultivator, and uphold the Dongxuan Edicts,
Ye Qingxuan naturally would not be stingy.
Just as Xue Yu and Jiang Wen returned into Dongxuan City, their Dongxuan Tokens suddenly vibrated slightly.
Xue Yu and Jiang Wen paused in confusion and took out their tokens to check.
The next second, a look of rapture suddenly appeared on Jiang Wen's face, and a smile unconsciously surfaced on Xue Yu's face as well.
Noticing the change in the two, Li Mu beside them could not help but ask curiously, "What's wrong?"
Hearing Li Mu's question, Jiang Wen raised an eyebrow and said with slight pride, "Nothing, the City Master just allocated ten thousand contribution points to me, hahaha!"
After speaking, Jiang Wen seemed to remember something again and looked at Xue Yu:
"By the way, Xue Yu, you should have some too, right? How much is yours?"
Xue Yu glanced at the proud Jiang Wen and said lightly, "Just one million."
After speaking, he walked forward.
Hearing this, Jiang Wen was stunned, then reacted, and directly exclaimed:
"Damn, you have one million contribution points?"
In an instant, the excitement and pride he felt from receiving ten thousand contribution points were directly discounted.
However, although Jiang Wen was envious in his heart, he did not feel great jealousy.
He had to admit that he indeed was not as good as this madman Xue Yu.
Watching Xue Yu's retreating figure, Jiang Wen hurriedly chased after him.
Behind them, Li Mu and Liu Feifeng, looking at the two figures, had expressions that were somewhat dim. Liu Feifeng bit her lip and secretly encouraged herself: "Liu Feifeng, you can do it too, come on!"
Then, she also followed the footsteps of Xue Yu and Jiang Wen.
Seeing this, Li Mu, who felt somewhat unwilling in his heart, carrying a strange irritability, also unconsciously followed behind.
At this moment, the incident at the Dongxuan City gate had spread to all cultivators inside and outside Dongxuan City, sparking heated discussion: "Awesome! This Dongxuan City even dares to execute an Elder of the Huangji Sect?"
"Now Dongxuan City is doomed; having just been established, it offended the Huangji Sect and will inevitably suffer retaliation from the Huangji Sect."
"Should we leave then? What if we stay in Dongxuan City and get implicated later?"
"Why panic? You don't know that the City Master of Dongxuan City hasn't even appeared; a Purple Mansion Captain of the Dongxuan City guard squad directly used the city's formation to execute a Nascent Soul Elder of the Huangji Sect.
Hehe, this Dongxuan City! In my opinion, it is not as simple as you imagine."
"True, since Dongxuan City dares to execute people from the Huangji Sect, it must have its own confidence; otherwise, it would not act this way."
"Haha, I am curious what attitude the Huangji Sect will take."
In an instant, cultivators with various mindsets were present: those watching the spectacle, those rejoicing at another's misfortune, those curious, and those worried about being implicated.
Some cautious cultivators, after the incident occurred, decisively left Dongxuan City.
But most cultivators believed that even if the people of the Huangji Sect turned against Dongxuan City, they would not commit a crime against heaven and earth
to kill other cultivators who had entered Dongxuan City without prior warning.
Therefore, they were not in a hurry to leave Dongxuan City.
Staying in Dongxuan City, strolling through the markets of Dongxuan City, and watching the potential excitement that might unfold was also a good choice.
As a continuous stream of cultivators flooded into the Dongxuan Market, the market instantly became bustling.
The Dongxuan Market sold all kinds of goods: elixirs, talismans, magic treasures, array discs, and various raw materials; everything was available and perfectly complete.
These items instantly captured the attention of these cultivators.
The matter of the Imperial Prince's Elder's demise thus temporarily subsided on the surface.
"Miss, how much for this Eight-Treasure Chicken?"
"Call me Shopkeeper!"
Yinyin looked at the person before her stall with some displeasure.
Today was her first day setting up a stall and starting a business with her little brothers; was he so lacking in social awareness? Couldn't even call her Shopkeeper?
"However, this fellow seems quite wealthy."
She saw the person before her wearing a magnificent sable fur coat, holding a folding fan inlaid with dozens of gems and spirit pearls of varying sizes, none of them ordinary.
Yinyin's eyes rolled slightly, her mind working out some scheme.
Bai Qing'an observed Yinyin with interest and asked, "Then may I ask the Shopkeeper's honorable name?"
Bai Qing'an was the Vice Pavilion Master of the main hall of the Treasure Pavilion; he had come to Dongxuan City to discuss the matter of the Treasure Pavilion establishing a branch there.
But after the incident of Luo Jiutian's demise, Bai Qing'an knew that Dongxuan City was by no means simple.
Therefore, he did not rashly go directly to find the City Lord of Dongxuan City; instead, he came to the Dongxuan Market, wanting to indirectly learn about the city's foundations.
He did not expect that upon arriving at the Dongxuan Market, he would see many Qi Refining Initial Realm cultivators, and even mortal people.
They were holding spirit grains, spirit herbs, and even precious semi-spirit beasts like the Eight-Treasure Chicken, fragrant pigs, and spirit rabbits, setting up stalls to sell them.
Out of curiosity, Bai Qing'an immediately found a stall that caught his eye, preparing to ask about the source of these semi-spirit beasts.
He did not expect this young stall owner to be somewhat unique.
Hearing Bai Qing'an's inquiry, Yinyin tilted her head back and said proudly:
"My name is Jiang Yinyin; you can call me Shopkeeper Jiang!"
Seeing Yinyin's demeanor, Bai Qing'an raised an eyebrow and smiled lightly, "So it is Shopkeeper Jiang? My apologies, my apologies!"
"I wonder, Shopkeeper Jiang, where did you get this Eight-Treasure Chicken?"
Although semi-spirit beasts offered little help to cultivators above the Qi Refining Realm in terms of cultivation base,
the taste of most semi-spirit beasts was unparalleled, and they were favored by many cultivators across the Star Fall Continent.
That a Qi Refining Initial Realm cultivator like Jiang Yinyin, along with some mortal people around her, could actually obtain semi-spirit beasts
made Bai Qing'an extremely curious in his heart.
