The two men in black seemed to be in a panic and ran straight towards Ruoruo and the others.
The goddess Yu Hua frowned slightly, opened her folding fan, and said with a flourish, "Miss, move back a little behind me."
"Wait! I know them." Ruoruo asked with bright eyes, "Are they Sister Rongqing and Brother Yuebai?"
Upon seeing Ruoruo, the two men in black cloaks quickly turned and left, fearing they might implicate her.
However, the leader of the celestial soldiers pointed and said, "They know each other! Arrest that child too!"
Since they wanted to arrest people without asking any questions, Goddess Yuhua laughed in anger: "You dare to touch my young lady!"
She tossed Yuebai and Rongqing, one in each hand, to Ruoruo's side, unfolded her fan halfway, and waved it forward.
A hurricane swept through, blowing away the onlookers and the immortal soldiers who came to capture Yuebai and Rongqing, sending them crashing into the city wall.
A collective scream erupted, and the scene instantly descended into chaos.
One of the young men, dressed in glittering gold and accompanied by a special entourage, adjusted his hair ornament and roared angrily, "Do you know who I am? How dare you lay a hand on me! Are you all trash? Arrest them! I'm going to teach them a lesson!"
"Whoever you are, arresting people without even asking questions—is this the rule of Xihe Prefecture?" Yu Hua unfolded another page of her folding fan. "Today, I will teach you a lesson on behalf of the city lord!"
With a wave of the fan, this time it was more than just a hurricane; the wind blades directly lifted the flat rock slabs on the ground and crashed into them.
"Young master, be careful!" Several cultivators blocked the young man's path.
The other cultivators who were implicated were terrified, but they found that all the rock slabs were aimed at the young man, without even touching a single hem of their clothes. Only a wisp of wind brushed past their eyebrows.
However, the road between Yu Hua Shang Shen and the young man became a mess, with palm-thick stone slabs being smashed onto the young man by the immortal energy.
"Young Master, are you alright?" The immortal soldiers and cultivators rushed to help the young man.
"Do I look alright? You bunch of trash, get out of my way!" The young man's clothes were tattered and his hair ornament was torn off, making him look extremely disheveled. He pushed aside his subordinate's shoulder and took out a talisman from his pouch, tearing it to shreds. "I am the eldest son of the City Lord of Yuan City! How dare you lay a hand on me? You're all going to die!"
The next moment, a powerful aura spread out from the city, and an old man with a cultivation level of the peak of Golden Immortal walked out from the teleportation array on the city wall.
"Elder, save me! They're going to kill me!" the young man cried out in grief and indignation.
"Who dares to act recklessly in Yuan City, Xihe Prefecture?" After seeing the disheveled youth, the old man's eyes turned sinister as he locked onto the Goddess Yu Hua, believing her cultivation to be only at the early stage of Golden Immortal. "Since you dare to injure my young city lord, you will leave your lives behind."
Ruoruo's cute little face instantly scrunched up: "What's going on in Yuancheng? First, that big brother was unreasonable and tried to arrest us, and then you, old man, came out and tried to take our lives."
The goddess Yu Hua raised a lip and said, "With your paltry cultivation, you dare to embarrass yourself."
Even if she suppressed her strength to the level of a Golden Immortal, defeating this old man would be as easy as playing around.
With so many onlookers around, to avoid accidentally hurting innocent people, Yu Hua closed her folding fan and used it as a weapon, slapping the old man repeatedly with it, like a cat playing with a mouse, leaving the old man completely bewildered.
The old man's magic had absolutely no effect.
Seeing that Yu Hua had the old man pinned down, the two men in black robes breathed a sigh of relief and took off their hats, revealing somewhat familiar faces: "Your Highness, it's been a long time. I didn't expect you to still remember us."
"Sister Rongqing! Brother Yuebai!" Ruoruo's ears popped out with joy, and she rushed over. "Long time no see! Of course I remember you. The Wenshui that Brother Yuebai gave me is almost upgraded to a celestial artifact! Also, don't call me Your Highness. We came out incognito to keep a low profile and were afraid of being ambushed."
Yuebai couldn't help but shrink back behind Rong Qing: "Okay, sure."
Rong Qing was embraced by the little girl, and he gently stroked her head with tender eyes: "What are you doing here?"
"I'm going to Kunlun Ruins to cultivate, what are you doing here?" Ruoruo asked.
“After what happened in the secret realm last time, we realized we weren’t experienced enough, so we took leave and traveled together. Recently, many secret realms have opened in Xihezhou, so we thought we’d come here to see if we could encounter any opportunities.” As Rong Qing said this, a hint of resentment flashed in his eyes.
"Yuebai and I obtained an ancient inheritance in a secret realm. When that young city lord found out, he kept saying that we stole his things and chased us all the way out. If we hadn't met the little prince and that fairy, we might not have been able to escape today."
Ruoruo's cheeks puffed out as she listened, and she said indignantly, "He's so mean! It's alright, Fairy Yuhua is very powerful, there won't be any problems."
The group had barely exchanged a few words when the old man on the other side began to struggle and looked on the verge of defeat.
The young man's face twitched as he stared at Ruoruo, who was standing behind the goddess Yuhua.
He grabbed one of the thugs next to him: "Go and grab that little girl! That bitch calls that little girl 'Miss,' once we catch that brat, she'll have no choice but to surrender."
"Yes!" The thugs and immortal soldiers around them rushed towards Ruoruo and the others.
Yu Hua angrily slapped the old man away with her fan and turned to protect Ruo Ruo, but the old man swallowed a bottle of pills and frantically blocked Yu Hua's way.
"Ruo Ruo!" Rong Qing pressed down on Ruo Ruo's shoulder with one hand and used his sword to protect her back with the other.
With a clang of weapons clashing, Rong Qing and Ruoruo staggered back several steps.
"You can't beat that fairy, so you come to make things difficult for the children. How shameless!" Rong Qing couldn't help but curse.
The young man in brocade robes threw out a ring-shaped magical artifact that flew straight towards Ruoruo.
If Ruoruo flips her left hand, Wen Shui appears in her hand, and as soon as the umbrella is opened, a crisp wind chime rings out.
The small wooden sword, originally hidden on her right wrist as a bracelet pendant, sprouted from the Kunlun vines, bursting out of Ruoruo's sleeve and slapping the young man across the face several times.
Ruoruo draped the umbrella over her shoulder, swung her right hand at the young man, and the vines lashed out like whips, sending him flying.
Her body radiated an aura of immortality, and everyone looked on in astonishment: "A Golden Immortal?"
That child looks to be only four or five years old based on his bone age; how could he possibly be a Golden Immortal?
"She must be some old monster disguised as a child!" The young man clutched his chest, spat out a mouthful of blood, and his eyes flashed with malice. "Go and call my father! Go and mobilize the city defense troops! She must be deliberately coming to cause trouble for my Yuan City."
If this is truly a four or five-year-old child who has already achieved such cultivation, then we must make them die here today, otherwise the consequences will be endless!
