The snake demon disappeared due to the flame, and it didn't appear again even after the flame had extinguished.
Even those who didn't understand this kind of thing could prehend that this wasn't a snake demon as it didn't have a corporeal body. At most, it was an image.
"This…"
Shaman Zhang's face got flushed as tried to respond but stuttered.
"Do you have anything to say?"
Jiang Xiu asked Wang Zhenbang, the man who tried to smash money to send them away.
None of them replied, nor did the have any face left to do so. The oute was already evident.
"Mr. Jiang's power is indeed godly!"
Wu Rong bowed Jiang Xiu deeply, revealing a proud face. As he had e here following after Mr. Jiang, his face was also lifted up due to this.
He was really infuriated before. He, the grand Deputy Chief, with Mr. Jiang at his side, were being driven away. But now, looking at their speechless appearance, it really seemed pleasant when retribution fell to these kinds of people.
"This doesn't make sense…" Shaman Zhang shook his head continuously, "My Great Grandfather, my Grandfather, and my Father, three generations of my ancestors, died under this snake demon's hand. Tell, how could that happen?"
"You think this Deity has any obligation to explain it?"
Jiang Xiu ignored him after saying this.
Shaman Zhang, who got left behind, wore a look of astonishment with an absent-minded gaze. The other party didn't need to explain anything as it was already proven that he was in the wrong.
"T-This Mister…"
Boss Wang felt quite awkward. He tried to call out to Jiang Xiu but got ignored. This made his embarrassment turn into angrier. You're just a Jianghu member, and you dare to put on airs in front of me?
"10 million!"
He raised a finger. It was quite an astonishing amount.
"I'll give you 10 million if you help me rescue Xiaoxiao."
He didn't believe someone would deny money.
"This Deity has already told you that I don't lack money."
"50 million!"
Boss Wang extended the rest of fingers out with a glare. 50 million was no small amount. It was enough to squander money all around the world and still have enough left to live the latter half of life with ease or be used to make deals with the unknown.
Jiang Xiu smiled coolly, "You're quite well-off?"
"This humble person is Myriad Skills Entertainment pany's boss, and also Xiao Xuetong's boss. Though I don't dare to say I'm quite well-off, the assets in my hands aren't something you can imagine. You can set the price for saving Xiaoxiao, and you'll also make me owe you a favor. If you're troubled with anything in the future, e to Pinghai Province to find me, I'll help you out."
Wang Zhenbang had a pretty active social influence. As the boss of an entertainment pany which has a famous idol who's in high demand everywhere, everyone tried to flatter him. After such a long time, he naturally started feeling like he was a big shot.
Therefore, his tone of speaking so arrogant.
"Sometimes, you only get one chance in life, if you miss it, it's gone forever."
"Better think it over properly…"
He looked down on these Jianghu members from the bottom of his heart. If not for this matter, he really disdained even dealing with such people.
"What's the situation?"
Another voice came from the police cordon area.
"Secretary Gu, the target is inside the woods."
"Hoh?"
"Gu Dezhi had arrived here. After getting his wound checked in the hospital, it was determined that it was just a minor one and wouldn't cause any problems, so he came down to find Jiang Xiu. After witnessing Jiang Xiu's powers, although he wasn't sure that Jiang Xiu was a Demigod, he was definite that Jiang Xiu was a rare talent, so he naturally wanted to rope Jiang Xiu in and have good relations with him.
After ing here, he discovered that a police cordon was placed here and they were all lying in wait.
"Secretary Gu?!"
Wang Zhenbang and Sister Li shouted in alarm, feeling quite surprised. He felt quite thrilled that the leader of Jiangnan's border region had e over personally e over!
"Secretary Gu, how e you're here? This matter isn't something of your stature needs to deal with."
"How could I dare not to e here when Mr. Jiang is here?" replied Gu Dezhi.
Saying so, he politely called out to Jiang Xiu, "Mr. Jiang!"
Wang Zhenbang was stupefied. The most supreme person of Jiangnan's border region was acting so reverently towards a Jianghu member.
During the time Secretary Gu went to chat with Jiang Xiu, Wang Zhengbang asked Gu Dezhi's secretary who had stayed behind, "Mr. Ye, who is this Mr. Jiang? Why is Secretary Gu acting… in such a polite manner?"
The secretary replied, "Boss Wang, you have e to make money in Jiang City, but don't tell me you haven't heard about Mr. Jiang's famous name yet?"
Wang Zhenbang shook his head.
"At Jiang City, Mr. Jiang has the final say. Even if we consider the Jiangnan province, more than half of it is under his control."
That person was actually such a big shot?!
Wang Zhenbang drew in a cold breath. He was dumbfounded.
"Tell me now, should my boss act politely towards him or not?"
The secretary saw the chance in Wang Zhenbang's expression and couldn't help ask, "Boss Wang, you didn't offend Mr. Jiang, right? You can offend anyone in Jiang City but not him."
"Because all those who have offended him ended up dead."
Wang Zhenbang's face went pale.
"How's the situation?"
Gu Dezhi asked.
Jiang Xiu's sight was fixed on the woods, "She's inside, so it the person who grabbed her. This Deity needs to go inside. Get rid of the people surrounding the perimeter, okay?"
"Especially that annoying fly."
Gu Dezhi manded Wu Rong, "What are you doing standing there? Didn't you hear Mr. Jiang? Clear all the irrelevant people back to police cordon."
"Everyone, please back off. Don't make the police use force…"
Wang Zhenbang, Sister Li and Shaman Zhang's faces were filled with embarrassment. Just now, they were planning to send the others away, but now, they were being driven away instead.
Jiang Xiu didn't really care about this, if he did, they would've been dead already. The reason he wanted them to clear the area was that they would suffer if something unexpected happens.
Jiang Xiu had already started walking towards the woods while the others cleared the area.
A silhouette stood inside the woods. A man with messy gray hair who wore a robe and held a crutch in his hand, age unknown.
"Who are you? Why are you interfering?" He asked.
"You have concealed yourself pretty well. That's a pretty good vessel."
"It's a pity, a soul is just a soul in the end."
That man's expression changed, "Who are you?!"
"The person who has e to receive you."
"You're courting death!"
He faced his crutch towards Jiang Xiu, and the Yin Snake at his feet shot towards Jiang Xiu like an arrow. His eyes started releasing black fog as he mumbled.
"Hah!"
Jiang Xiu waved his hand, releasing an incorporeal energy pulse towards the Yin Snake. All of a sudden, a gale passed by, causing the trees in the woods to sway. The Yin Snake, which was just a spirit body, couldn't bear this and turned into black vapors before disappearing.
The trees which were leaning due to the gale recovered their initial position.
"You…"
That man's expression morphed again, the gaze in his eyes flickered, "Don't tell me… You have a Godhead? Are you a God?"
"Looks like you noticed it."
"I'm really shocked, to think there's a Godhead like this."
"I also didn't expect to meet a God here, that too an Evil God," replied Jiang Xiu.
"Likewise."
"How many years have you lived?" asked the Evil God.
"About 20 years or so."
"Impossible. Having such cultivation in just 20 years is impossible. I have lived for a millennium, and it took me a hundred years to raise that Yin Snake. This doesn't make sense… Wait… Which Godhood are you?"
"None." Jiang Xiu replied.
Jiang Xiu felt quite confused about this matter. He had two Godhood Halos in his body but didn't know its use, so he asked, "What's the use of Godhood?"
The Evil God laughed loudly. He was sure that Jiang Xiu was acting this genuinely and wasn't faking, "Your question is akin to an ordinary person asking an official what's the use of an official position."
"It's naturally authority, power and lifespan."
The Evil God explained, "Luck exists in this world, and according to the virtues and achievements, Godhood Halo descends from the Heavens as proof of Godhood, allow an ordinary person to enter the extraordinary by surpassing the boundaries of death and roam the universe.
"Which Godhood are you?" Jiang Xiu asked him.
"Grand North Emperor Godhood."
The Evil God's body emitted a faint luster as he said this, which was the Godhood Halo. It was pletely different from the two Godhood Halos Jiang Xiu had encountered before.
This man's Godhood Halo gave off a sinister feeling.
"Quite interesting…"
