"This woman..."

Seeing Qiu Rong’s half-face smashed by Mo Hongyun’s slap and his whole body fainting.

As well as Mo Hongyun’s face full of coldness, looking as if she still hadn’t vented her hatred.

Everyone was shocked.

Especially the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion Master and others, their hearts were chilled.

Realizing that this woman probably holds a deep grudge against them now.

If not for the City Lord’s unwillingness to commit more slaughter, their fate might not have been much better.

After knocking Qiu Rong unconscious, Mo Hongyun did not let him go.

Instead, she unleashed another strike of mana, with even greater power, directly smashing Qiu Rong’s head.

Red and white matter flew, and a Golden Core Middle Stage expert died humiliatingly in a coma.

This scene made the hearts of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion Master and others tremble, once again realizing the ruthlessness of the woman before them.

As for the Canglan City Lord, his face showed no change at all.

In his view, it was just a Golden Core Realm cultivator; dead was dead, and moreover, he deserved it, so he didn’t care at all.

After Mo Hongyun killed the man, he said, "Feeling better? Then come with your uncle to the City Lord Mansion first.

Now that Gongshu Yu is dead, the Gongsu Family will soon get the news and probably send someone down soon.

Come with me to the City Lord Mansion, so I can ensure your safety."

"Yes, uncle."

Mo Hongyun did not oppose, knowing well that now was not a time to be willful.

"But I have to tidy things up and handle the matters of the Treasure Tower before I can go."

"That’s fine, but don’t take too long. Although descending from the Upper Realm to the Little Cang Realm takes time, at most a day, the Gongsu Family is likely to send someone down, so you have only half a day to handle the Treasure Tower matters,"

The Canglan City Lord reminded.

"I know."

After advising Mo Hongyun, the Canglan City Lord turned to Lu Qing and asked, "What are your plans, fellow Daoist?"

All eyes immediately turned to Lu Qing.

This turmoil’s source could be traced back to Lu Qing, and he even clinched the final situation.

However, everyone was clueless about his background.

So now, everyone wanted to know how Lu Qing would respond.

Especially Mo Hongyun.

She was now fully convinced that Lu Qing was the one who could help her break free from the shackles of fate.

Therefore she cared intensely about where Lu Qing would go next.

Lu Qing, naturally, would not be foolish enough to reveal his plans in front of so many people.

He smiled slightly, "Junior has some matters to discuss with the City Lord. May I visit the City Lord Mansion as well?"

"Of course," the Canglan City Lord said with some delight, "Co-incidentally, I also wish to discuss Daoist skills with you, fellow Daoist."

The subsequent matters were much simpler.

Mo Hongyun went to handle the matters of the Treasure Tower, while Lu Qing accompanied the Canglan City Lord to the City Lord Mansion.

This was also to escort him, as the Canglan City Lord’s current situation was not ideal.

If any ill-intentioned person wanted to take action against him, he might not be able to defend himself.

As for Little Li and the Five Elements, from the beginning, Lu Qing had had them temporarily enter the Qiankun Qi Bag.

Ever since the Qiankun Qi Bag was reforged with an Artifact Spirit, its internal space had significantly expanded again.

It was now comparable to the Leaving Fire Tripod, able to accommodate living creatures of the Golden Core Level.

However, due to the limited spiritual energy within the space, Little Li and others could only stay inside, unable to cultivate.

Therefore, unless there was an extremely urgent situation, Lu Qing generally would not have them enter the Spiritual Artifact.

Although Canglan City was large, for strong individuals like Lu Qing and others, this distance was insignificant.

Soon, he escorted the Canglan City Lord back to the City Lord Mansion.

"Master! Are you alright?"

At this time, an elderly servant rushed out from within, looking worriedly at the Canglan City Lord, whose body was still covered in wounds.

"I’m fine. How are the guards doing?"

The Canglan City Lord waved his hand, then asked.

The old servant’s expression darkened, "A small portion of the guards were severely injured and fell into a coma from the recoil of the array, while the rest suffered damage to their Golden Cores, rendered unable to fight."

"As long as no one has died, minor injuries can eventually be healed," the Canglan City Lord said dismissively, "Take those people outside to the Black Stone Prison.

Then go to the storeroom and get some elixirs for the guards, so they can heal quickly."

"Yes, Master."

After the old servant left, the Canglan City Lord saw Lu Qing’s surprised expression.

He thought for a moment and explained, "I let you witness a joke. The guards in the mansion are not up to par. I had them preside over the big array to assist me in battle.

Unexpectedly, just the backlash from one array left them all injured and incapacitated.

Otherwise, how could the petty people from the Heavenly Mechanism Workshop have acted so arrogantly?"

Lu Qing understood.

He had been curious earlier why, as the ruler of Canglan City, only the Canglan City Lord had come out to oppose the enemy.

And after he was severely injured, no one came to his aid from the City Lord Mansion.

As it turned out, during the great battle with the three Primordial Spirit Great Powers from the Gongsu Family, they had all suffered backlash from the array, losing their fighting capacity.

"It’s a pity that when I came down to the Little Cang Realm, I didn’t bring many people. The guards in the mansion were all trained after taking charge of Canglan City.

Otherwise, if the elite guards of my Nangong Family were here, the array they formed would not have been so easily broken!"

The Canglan City Lord said with some regret.

When he initially came down to take charge of Canglan City, he actually did so with the intention of spending his remaining years here.
