Seeing the door closing, everyone ca out of their shock and looked at each other with all kinds of emotions.
The soldiers were embarrassed by the ss they had created. Gu Jin was curious about the identity of the house owner.
He also secretly made a note to tell the city lord about what happened here.
Ma Ning, on the other hand, just started questioning his whole life.
'Why do I just et these scary kinds of won everywhere?
Am I cursed?
Why am I still unmarried and single?
Did all gentlewon die?
Are gentle won an illusion?'
All kinds of thoughts passed through his mind as he speechlessly stared at the man who brought him into this ss.
"The Xu Family really produced a genius this ti."
He could not help but scoff in mock while looking at Xu Kai.
"Gu Jin, take him to the city lord. Let him deal with the ss!"
"You should tell your grand elder that because of you we will no longer be selling weapons from Xu, and that includes all of our affiliated shops."
Dropping his responsibilities on Gu Jin, Ma Ning looked at Xu Kai and continued before he hurriedly left the place using his flying sword.
"…."
Gu Jin just stared at his disappearing back with hatred before turning his attention toward Xu Kai.
Seeing the man twitching and screaming on the ground, a look of disdain flashed through his eyes. He probably wouldn't even have heard what the manager had said.
"Guards take him back as well. We will take him to the lord first."
Everyone hurriedly got up and moved out of the streets. Since their house was located in a quiet area not many people usually walk by this area.
….
"Let take a bath; I will join you later."
Since Xin Yan was unable to use her qi, she had to take a bath to remove the blood stains.
Yet her words confused the woman in front of her.
"Why don't you use your qi to clean it?"
Xin Yan turned to look at her and chuckled before saying.
"I am a body cultivator."
Her reply shocked Yu Ming; she never imagined that soone who was a body cultivator would be able to have such a beautiful and perky body. Her eyes could not help but trail over Xin Yan's lust-inducing body; her curves were sothing rarely seen on a woman her age.
Since she hadn't seen a woman practicing body cultivation in her life, she thought they would look like those burly n with densely packed muscles.
A thought of practicing body cultivation flashed through her mind, but she imdiately discarded it after thinking about the pain the body cultivators have to go through.
Even though she would get a power boost, she would not only have to feel more pain but she would also have to face a stronger tribulation.
Just like most of the won out there, she did not want to feel pain.
"Well, I will be going now."
Seeing You Ming lost in her thoughts, Xin Yan took her, leaving the woman to her thoughts.

In the city Lord Mansion.
In the middle of a luxurious room, Xu Kai kneeled on the floor. He was facing towards the ground with his eyes now covered in bandages. His pain has subsided because he was given so painkillers.
Gu Jin took him to the doctor before bringing him back here. The doctor told him that his eyes were permanently destroyed.
There was an unknown energy inside his eyes. Although that energy disappeared, the damage left by the energy beca permanent. He could not think of any pill below Rank 5 that could help the boy with his eyes.
"So you're telling that this brat from the Xu family dared to go against the VIP custors of the Eternal Jade Guild."
Hearing the words of the young-looking handso man sitting on the luxurious seat, Gu Jin nodded respectfully.
The man was none other than the City Lord of the Golder Edge City, Ma Mingli.
Despite his young looks, the city lord was already more than 50 years old. His strength was currently at the peak of the foundation establishnt realm.
Even though he was stronger than Ma Ning, the weight of the Eternal Jade Guild behind him was not sothing he could take lightly.
"Not only that, City Lord. He bribed one of our soldiers to help him kidnap the woman and take him back ho."
Hearing the report, a cold light flashed through his eyes.
'I have been doing so many things to get on the good side of the guild, but this brat from a re Xu Family dared to attack their valued custors.
Isn't that basically making an enemy out of them!!'
As he continued thinking, his anger started building, and he released his pressure in the room.
"What did Manager Ma Ning say?"
"He said that the Eternal Jade Guild cut all of their ties with the Xu family, while they would also make sure none of their affiliated shops sells weapons from the Xu Family."
Hearing these words, the city Lord nodded in agreent. This was a suitable punishnt if soone offended the guild.
When these words entered Xu Kai's ears, he froze in fear. He was unable to hear what the manager said before when he left, but now when he heard what he said, he felt his world falling apart.
Xu Family was what it was only because of the Eternal Jade Guild!
It was because the guild was willing to buy their weapons that they made a na for themselves.
There were a couple of rank 2 Weapon Refiners working under them so one of them leaving would not affect them much.
The sa could not be said for the Xu Family; knowing that they offended the guild, no one would be willing to buy their weapons.
"Please, City Lord, forgive ! I hope you can help out the Xu Family in asking for Manager Ma Ning's forgiveness!"
Xu Kai imdiately started kowtowing in front of Ma Mingli.
Yet the city lord did not show any compassion but snorted instead.
"Hmph! You want to drag us into the ss. Who do you think you are?! Your Xu family is on your own.
As for what you did… you will be sentenced to 50 whips of the Weeping Whip and also be charged with 1000 spirit stones.
You will be paying the stones to the lady you tried to kidnap.
Soone! Take him away and inform the Xu Family about what their dear young master did."
As soon as he gave the order, the guards entered the room to take him away. In the eyes of the city lord, the Xu family was not that big but only a dium family. He did not fear punishing people from these families who did not obey his rules.
