Ning Jie held the Dinghai Shenzhen Iron in his hand, his expression as stern as the frozen lake, his eyes like blades staring at Shan Jing who was lying on the ground.
Shan Jing's originally arrogant face was now distorted by fear. Beads of sweat the size of beans rolled down his forehead like rain, mixed with dust and leaving a trail of messy marks on his face.
He didn't expect that in this remote fishing village in the East China Sea, there would be a powerful person in the Spirit Transformation Realm!
How is this possible!
At this moment, Shan Jing's eyes were filled with fear of death. His once arrogant demeanor had long since disappeared without a trace, like smoke blown away by a strong wind.
“Mercy… Spare my life!”
Shan Jing's voice was trembling.
He kowtowed desperately, and the sound of his forehead hitting the ground seemed particularly abrupt in the silent seaside.
Ning Jie just smiled coldly, there was no warmth in that smile, as if it came from the cold wind of the Nine Nether Hell.
Naturally, he had no mercy on this evildoer who brought disaster to the people and caused suffering to the villagers of Sanshui Village.
Ning Jie didn't hesitate at all. He gently swung the Dinghai Shenzhen in his hand. The seemingly casual movement contained the power to destroy the world.
A stream of spiritual power shot out like a bolt of lightning that cut through the darkness and instantly hit Shan Jing.
As spiritual power entered his body, Shan Jing let out a shrill scream. The sound seemed to penetrate his soul and made the surrounding air tremble.
Then, the spiritual power in his body quickly dissipated like a flood. His originally strong body instantly withered and he collapsed on the ground like a reptile with its spine removed. The light in his eyes gradually dimmed, leaving only endless despair.
"He has become a useless man. Whether he lives or dies is up to you."
Ning Jie spoke to the villagers of Sanshui Village in a calm voice with unquestionable authority.
The villagers looked at Shan Jing, who was once as arrogant as a devil. A trace of disbelief flashed in their eyes, and then the long-suppressed flame of revenge burned in their eyes.
Over the years, Shan Jing led the Ronin tribe to plunder the village many times like a swarm of locusts, and each arrival was accompanied by cries and despair.
They stole the villagers' hard-earned fish and precious belongings, and even brutally killed those villagers who resisted. They also humiliated women and children. Those painful memories are like nightmares that linger in the hearts of every villager. The seeds of hatred took root and sprouted over the years, and have now grown into towering trees.
At this moment, the anger that the villagers had suppressed for many years erupted like a volcano.
They rushed forward, punches and kicks raining down on Shan Jing.
"Beat him to death!"
Shan Jing could still let out shrill screams at first, but as the attacks became more and more intense, his voice gradually became weaker, and eventually there was no sound at all. Only his bloody body was left swaying in the crowd as the villagers attacked him.
In the end, Shan Jing breathed his last amid the anger of the villagers. The villain who once brought endless disasters to Sanshui Village got what he deserved.
Ning Jie looked at this scene without any ripples in his heart. In his opinion, this was the deserved end for the Ronin.
He looked up into the distance, his eyes firm and deep. The Human Emperor City was his target, and he had to get there as soon as possible.
Thinking of this, Ning Jie rode the wind and rose up, preparing to cross the eastern hills and head west.
…
At the same time, news of Ning Jie's disappearance also spread.
Baidi City.
Kong Huanyi was leaning on the imperial chair taking a nap when the leader of the Golden Toad clan suddenly came over.
After hearing him say that Ning Jie entered the valley formation and then disappeared, Kong Huanyi's face turned pale instantly. Her originally beautiful face now withered like a flower that had lost its blood color.
Her heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible hand, and it hurt so much that she couldn't breathe.
Kong Huanyi was extremely anxious, with a hint of panic in her eyes. She immediately put down all the things in her hands, and even the words she said to her tribesmen were a little incoherent.
Then, she turned into a stream of light and rushed towards the southwest where Ning Jie disappeared. She was so fast that she left a long shadow behind her.
In Wangjing City, the capital of the Great Xia Dynasty, the Imperial Preceptor Chu Miaohan was discussing state affairs with the Empress Xia Wanqing.
The palace was magnificent, with gems inlaid on the walls sparkling brightly in the candlelight, and precious carpets covered the entire floor, soft and gorgeous.
The two men sat on exquisite thrones and chairs, with various memorials and maps placed on the table in front of them.
"Master Chu, the Wu Clan's activities on the border have become more frequent recently. Perhaps something big is about to happen."
A hint of sadness appeared on Xia Wanqing's face.
Chu Miaohan nodded slightly when he heard this.
"Indeed, and several ancient races that have never appeared in the world have also begun to show unusual movements. I suspect this is related to the Wu Clan."
"Alas, the world is becoming increasingly chaotic. I don't know when Ning Lang will be able to return."
When talking about Ning Jie's name, both women fell into deep thought, recalling that familiar face.
Suddenly, a guard rushed in, his footsteps frantic, and the sound of armor clashing shattered the stillness of the palace. He knelt on one knee, presented a piece of information with both hands, beads of sweat on his forehead.
Chu Miaohan and Xia Wanqing looked at each other and saw a hint of doubt in each other's eyes.
Chu Miaohan took the information and opened it. In an instant, his face became extremely solemn and a trace of fear flashed in his eyes.
When Xia Wanqing saw Chu Miaohan's expression, she had a bad feeling in her heart.
"Ning Jie is missing?"
Xia Wanqing stood up suddenly, her brows furrowed, her eyes full of worry.
