"Young Master Wang!" The shop owner shouted upon seeing this, and ran over with a bucket of water, pouring it on Wang Li. However, the fire in Wang Li's chest burned even more fiercely after the water was poured on, and the air was filled with a strong smell of alcohol.
"Ah~ You bastard, how dare you try to murder me!" Wang Li wailed in pain.
"Wang...Young Master Wang, I...I didn't mean it." The shopkeeper was very panicked.
"Hehe~" Li Yunxi laughed when he saw this.
"You witch, did you do it?" the shopkeeper shouted angrily. Wang Li was just teasing the girl, and in the blink of an eye he became like this miserable state. It was most likely because of her.
"Ah~ Bitch, put out the fire for me, or you will die without a burial place, my father is Wang Gang! Ah~" Wang Li rolled on the ground and yelled at Li Yunxi. The fire on Wang Li's chest was not big, and the damage was not very strong. Besides, he was a cultivator after all, so he would not die for a while.
Some of the diners with cultivation nearby also ran over at this time and tried their best to help Wang Li put out the fire, but it was of no use.
"Hehe, you were right just now. I am the only one who can put out the fire in you, but... I don't want to." Li Yunxi said jokingly.
"Miss, don't make a mistake. Don't rely on your little cultivation to do whatever you want in Muyang City." The innkeeper said to Li Yunxi in a deep voice. He didn't want Wang Li to get into trouble in their inn. Otherwise, not to mention whether his inn could continue to operate, it was hard to say whether his life could be saved. However, he didn't dare to attack Li Yunxi. After all, he was just an ordinary person. Wouldn't it be courting death to fight with a cultivator? Even so many cultivators at the scene couldn't do anything to Li Yunxi's methods.
"Get out of the way! Don't block the way!" Just then, a noisy sound came from the door.
The shopkeeper hurried over and said, "Captain Qin, you are finally here!"
Captain Qin ignored the shopkeeper. After seeing Wang Li rolling on the ground, he quickly used some magic to put out the fire. Without a doubt, the fire was still burning.
"It was this witch who did this!" The shopkeeper pointed at Li Yunxi who had returned to her seat to enjoy the food. With the city guards around, he had some confidence. Most importantly, he wanted to completely clear himself of responsibility. Wang Li, who was lying on the ground, was in so much pain that he could not speak, and could only wail miserably.
"Catch this woman first!" Captain Qin ordered his city guards.
"Yes!" The city guards took the order and a group of people surrounded Li Yunxi.
"A bunch of trash." Li Yunxi murmured.
Before the city guards could get close to Li Yunxi, they were blown away by an unknown force.
"Get out~" Li Yunxi shouted in a low voice.
"Damn it!" Captain Qin clenched his fists, hesitated for a moment, then carried Wang Li on his back and fled out of the inn. The city guards who had just been blown away also supported each other and left.
Li Yunxi didn't say anything about this. Since the other party had admitted defeat, there was no need for her to keep holding on to him.
Even the energy source of the flame on Wang Li's chest is only his own cultivation, and it will go out by itself in a short time. The damage Wang Li suffered is nothing more than the complete destruction of his own cultivation, and his body will not suffer much damage. After all, Li Yunxi is not a devil who kills without blinking an eye, so a slight punishment for Wang Li will be enough.
As for whether the city guards, or the people behind Wang Li, would come to cause trouble again, Li Yunxi didn't care. If they were ignorant and came to him again, then Li Yunxi would not be afraid of trouble.
The other guests in the inn also dispersed, and they returned to their rooms without even paying for their meals, packed up their belongings and fled the inn. The innkeeper didn't care about this, and he approached Li Yunxi cautiously and said, "Fairy, you should find another place to live..."
The shopkeeper knew that the deputy city lord would certainly not let this matter go, and would definitely bring people to find Li Yunxi before long. The fight between the gods would affect innocent people, and his inn could not withstand the tossing of two parties.
"Haha, you open a shop to do business, how can you chase customers away?" Li Yunxi said lightly without raising her head. Li Yunxi did not have any good feelings towards this shopkeeper. After all, the shopkeeper was like a blind man when Wang Li harassed her just now.
"Fairy, I..." The shopkeeper wanted to say something else, but was frightened by Li Yunxi's look and shut his mouth.
He had no choice but to quietly leave the inn. After all, no matter how valuable the inn was, it was not as important as his own life and property. Now he could only pray that the two parties would not be too harsh. Seeing this, a group of waiters also wanted to flee the inn, but were threatened by the shopkeeper and driven back. After all, Li Yunxi was still dining in there, so someone had to serve her, right? If he made Li Yunxi unhappy, maybe they would tear down his inn now.
The shopkeeper's guess was correct. Not long after, a middle-aged man led a group of heavily armed city guards and surrounded the inn from all sides.
"Deputy City Lord Wang..." The shopkeeper wanted to go up and say hello, but after seeing the look on Deputy City Lord Wang's face, he gave up the idea. Wouldn't it be a death wish for him to go and get into trouble at this time? It would be too unfair if Deputy City Lord Wang beat him to death in anger.
"Witch, come out!" Deputy City Lord Wang roared into the inn.
After a long time, there was no response from the inn.
Deputy City Lord Wang narrowed his eyes and said to his men, "Burn down this inn. I want to see if she can get out!"
"Deputy City Lord Wang, don't do that!" The shopkeeper didn't care about anything else after hearing that and hurried over to stop him.
"Who are you?" Deputy City Lord Wang frowned.
"I am the innkeeper of this inn." The innkeeper said truthfully.
"Swish~" Deputy City Lord Wang swung his sword and the shopkeeper's arm was cut off.
"You useless thing! My son got into trouble in your inn, and you still think he can survive?" Deputy City Lord Wang sneered, but he did not kill the shopkeeper immediately. He did not want the shopkeeper to die so easily.
The rest of the city guards also cast spells, and balls of fire flew towards the inn.
However, the flames falling on the inn was like mud falling into the sea. Not only did it fail to set the house on fire, but everything was sucked in.
Li Yunxi also walked out of the inn at this time, looked at Deputy City Lord Wang with a joking expression, and said, "I heard that you are here to avenge your son?"
"It's you?" Deputy City Lord Wang was shocked when he saw Li Yunxi's face. He had seen Li Yunxi at the Ye family in the City Lord's Mansion not long ago. Although he didn't know who Li Yunxi was, he knew that Li Yunxi was with a deacon of the Ye family. The Ye family was not someone that a small deputy city lord like him, Muyang City, could afford to offend.
"Cut off your arms and I will let you go." Li Yunxi said calmly.
Just as Deputy City Lord Wang was about to say something, a large group of soldiers in red robes flew in from the sky.
"The city lord's personal guards!" Deputy City Lord Wang said with some surprise.
