The Lord's Mansion of Xihezhou City.
Ruoruo sat directly above the seat in the City Lord's Mansion, with the Goddess Yuhua sitting beside her.
Yuebai and Rongqing hesitated for a moment, exchanged a glance, and then stood behind Ruanruan.
The city lord, holding his disobedient son, stood below anxiously.
Then he pressed his rebellious son down to kneel as well: "Your subject pays respects to the Third Prince and the Young Prince, and greets the Goddess Yuhua."
The young man's pupils shrank in horror, and cold sweat poured down his back. His previous arrogance vanished instantly.
Two princes and one god...
These two were ordinary noblemen, clearly people who held the life, death, glory, and fortune of the father and son in their hands.
"My two friends obtained inheritances in the secret realm. In order to seize their inheritances, you hunted them down. You and your son have turned this once peaceful city into such a mess." Ruoruo's anger flared up.
If this gets out, people will just say that her father failed to manage his celestial subordinates.
Moreover, her mother is now in power. Although her mother has not said anything, she has heard from the rumors in the immortal realm that her mother is having a hard time. These people are even causing trouble for her.
"This humble fairy...this humble fairy is blind and did not know that those two were His Highness's friends who had offended His Highness..." the young man stammered, but in his heart he was full of resentment towards Yuebai and Rongqing.
If he had said earlier that they were the young prince's friends, he wouldn't have dared to do it even if he had ten lives.
"You mean, if they aren't my friends, you're not at fault? Unrepentant!" Ruoruo was so angry that she used Kunlun to tie the two of them up tightly.
"Lord Yuhua, I would be grateful if you could investigate this matter thoroughly. How many times have they done this before? Such lawlessness is certainly not a first time!"
The old man was quite skilled at standing up for the young man!
The goddess Yu Hua left Ruo Ruo's side somewhat uneasy.
Mo Jinyan said, "Ruoruo is now a Golden Immortal, so she has nothing to fear. You can go. She's smart, and these people's sweet talk won't fool her."
"Yes." Yu Hua then turned her gaze to Rong Qing. "You will come with me and be my assistant."
She was worried about leaving this demon whom Ruoruo trusted so much by Ruoruo's side.
Rong Qing was so engrossed in cultivation that he didn't understand these things, so he believed it and followed the Goddess Yu Hua.
Without Rong Qing, Yue Bai felt increasingly uncomfortable, wishing she could turn back into her original form and crawl under the table.
Seeing that Rong Qing and Yu Hua were not there, leaving only two children and a person who could not speak properly, the young man's eyes darted around and he had a plan in mind: "Your Highnesses, I have never stolen anyone else's opportunity. This time, it was because I entered the Inheritance Hall first, and that opportunity should have been mine. I don't know why it was taken away by those two, so I thought of taking it back."
Yuebai's face flushed red with anxiety: "No."
Although this young man went in first, he wasn't chosen by the inheritance at all, which is why he was chosen by those who came after him.
What do you mean they stole his opportunity? That's all nonsense and utter rubbish.
He was clearly saying these things to lure Ruoruo.
Ruoruo took out two immobilization talismans and took a picture of each of the two people.
"I don't want to hear what you're saying right now." Ruoruo pouted. "None of your ten statements are true. Let's wait until Goddess Yuhua has investigated the matter thoroughly and we have witnesses and evidence before we talk about it."
Although the city lord and the young city lord were anxious, they were powerless to do anything about it.
All they could do was hope that the staff in the mansion would receive the message soon and pack the things away safely.
However, their strength was ultimately weak, and they did not know how powerful the divine sense of the Supreme God was.
The goddess Yu Hua cleaved open the ground of the courtyard with the strongest resentment, and her expression changed instantly upon seeing the piles of white bones.
This place doesn't look like a fairyland at all; it's more like a forest of resentful bones in the underworld!
Those advisors who were initially trying to evade the issue were instantly terrified when they saw that Goddess Yuhua had even brought up this particular place.
With a few thuds, everyone knelt down: "Immortal, please forgive us. We were coerced by the city lord and had no choice but to conceal this matter for him."
Yu Hua took the token she had found on the city lord and ordered the city guards to tie them all up: "You'd better go and explain everything to Miss. Maybe you can use it as collateral for your crimes."
Rong Qing brought these people to Ruoruo.
They watched as their former boss knelt before the little girl, not daring to utter a single word or even move, and immediately knew that all was lost.
Like pouring beans from a bamboo tube, it usually means revealing everything.
The city lord's wife was from the Ming family. After marrying her, he relied on his powerful in-laws. Although he was only the leader of the city defense army, he always suppressed the city lord and plundered resources for cultivation.
At first, they were somewhat restrained.
Until a year ago, after the God Mingye led his troops to garrison Kunlun Ruins, he went to see the God Mingye once, and then began to act even more recklessly.
Those skeletons were all people whose immortal essence and souls he had extracted to refine their own magical artifacts.
If a young and vulnerable person gets the chance, they will be unable to escape the clutches of this father and son.
“This young lady and gentleman are dressed in black robes and have no one around to protect them. The young master thinks they have no powerful backers and can be… recruited to his service,” an aide said.
Ruoruo was furious that she hadn't hit them harder and given them a few more slaps.
Mo Jinyan jumped onto the table, looked at the father and son who were extremely flustered, and said coldly, "According to the laws of the Immortal Realm, this person should have his immortal roots removed, his cultivation dispersed, be imprisoned in the Thunder Pool, suffer heavenly punishment, and have his soul scattered."
"Let's do as Third Brother says." Ruoruo had no intention of tearing off the immobilization charms on them or listening to their explanations.
The two were quickly taken away. Yu Hua purged everyone in the city lord's mansion, taking away all the guilty and selecting a few innocent people to take over the original city, then send a message back to Tianwaitian, and then re-appoint the city lord.
Since the battle at Kunlun Ruins, the Immortal Realm has been in turmoil, and it's unbelievable that such a villain has risen to power.
Seeing that Bai Gu Chi's face had turned slightly pale, Ruo Ruo detonated several Heavenly Thunder Talismans to dispel the resentment above the bones, and then invited Buddhist and Taoist cultivators to perform a ritual to help them pass on to the afterlife.
Finally, unable to distinguish who was who, Ruoruo set fire to all the bones and buried them all in the cemetery of the city lord's mansion.
If any soul manages to escape, it can be considered a reincarnation.
While Ruoruo was doing these things, in the wooden house of Tinglan inside the Fallen Immortal Cliff, Ming Mengyao, who was cultivating with a veil on her face, opened her mouth and vomited a mouthful of blood.
"Mengyao!" Mingye, who was protecting her, quickly brought her medicine and water. "What's wrong?"
Ming Mengyao clutched her clothes tightly at her lower abdomen, her brows furrowed in pain: "My immortal root... hurts."
Ming Ye carefully examined Ming Mengyao's body, his eyes turning cold: "Someone has tampered with the formation I set up in Yuan City!"
