"Such arrogance!"
Mu Rufeng, an elder of the Sand Star Gate who was favored by the sect master, immediately dropped his pretense and revealed his true colors upon hearing Tuoba Beier's words.
Mu Rufeng stared coldly at Tuoba Beier and said, "Originally, I didn't want to argue with you so much. Since you don't appreciate my kindness, don't blame the Sand Star Gate for being impolite."
Mu Rufeng was initially wary of Tuoba Beier's background in the Heavenly Profound Continent, which is why he made what he considered a "concession." However, he didn't expect that even with his "concession," Tuoba Beier would not give up, which angered him.
Their Sand Star Gate had dominated the Northwest Desert for decades. Even passing Supreme experts would choose to avoid them after learning of the Sand Star Gate's relationship with the Dustfall Pavilion. This woman, whom he had never even heard of, dared to oppose their Sand Star Gate. Did she think she was the Yao family's princess?
Even the Yao family's princess probably wouldn't bother with the Sand Star Gate over some ants, right? After all, the Dustfall Pavilion paid tribute to the Yao family every year, being the force that offered the most treasures from the Heavenly Profound Continent.
The Yao family's princess would have to give them some face, even if it was just for the sake of the tribute.
Moreover, the Yao family's princess had recently become a Supreme, causing a sensation throughout the entire Great Void World. She was now the top of the Rouge List's Saint Realm rankings, which was not something this woman could compare to.
"Sand Star Gate, Sand Star Gate, what a load of crap! I'm the Holy Emperor Palace's Holy Maiden!"
Tuoba Beier was extremely impatient with the other party's repeated mentions of the Sand Star Gate. She only wanted to get justice for her spilled wine.
Her Senior Uncle had once said that one must never let down his wife or his wine!
She didn't have a wife, and she wouldn't have one in this lifetime, but she loved her wine. No matter who spilled her wine, she would never let it go, not even her Senior Uncle. If necessary, she would have her Master heal her Senior Uncle.
She wouldn't let her Senior Uncle off the hook, let alone a Sand Star Gate she had never even heard of.
"What Sand Star Gate? It should be called the Moron Gate, a bunch of morons."
Tuoba Beier was furious at the thought of her spilled wine, and she cursed without any ladylike restraint.
"How dare you insult our Sand Star Gate!"
The Saint behind Mu Rufeng was furious upon hearing this, but he didn't dare to attack. The scene of his companion being instantly killed was still vivid in his mind. However, with Mu Rufeng in front of him, he dared to berate Tuoba Beier.
"What a load of crap, Holy Emperor Palace! I've never even heard of it. In this day and age, people from any obscure, third-rate force dare to call themselves Holy Maidens. The world is truly full of wonders!"
He sneered mockingly, feeling extremely pleased with himself. Even though he wasn't her opponent, if his words were relayed back to the sect, the sect master might reward him for defending the sect's honor!
As for danger? With Elder Mu in front, he should be safe.
"Retreat!"
Just as he was fantasizing about receiving the sect master's reward upon his return, a familiar voice interrupted his fantasy.
"What?"
He looked up slightly and saw a huge object descending from the sky. It was... a gourd?
"Rumble!"
With an earth-shattering crash, his consciousness froze on the "gourd." He didn't even feel any pain before his body turned into countless dust particles, and his soul dissipated at the same time.
He died without a complete corpse, his body and spirit destroyed, never to be reincarnated.
At this moment, Tuoba Beier's face was stern, and her eyes were coldly fixed on the Boundless Wine Gourd in her hand.
"You..." Mu Rufeng was instantly terrified. He hadn't even seen how Tuoba Beier had gotten behind him, but he knew very well that Tuoba Beier was stronger than him, much stronger.
The cultivators in the city were also stunned by this scene. Tuoba Beier's power and dominance exceeded their imagination, but they didn't feel happy about it.
"What do we do? The Sand Star Gate's two envoys died here. If the Sand Star Gate blames us, we're all going to die."
Someone said with a pale face, his voice trembling.
But there were also people who had a die-hard attitude, but these people were ultimately in the minority. After all, the Sand Star Gate was like a god to them, the gap was too great. The fish would die, but the net would definitely not break.
The city lord's expression was even more unpredictable. He glanced at the residents behind him, and his eyes instantly became extremely firm.
He suddenly knelt down to Tuoba Beier in the sky with a "plop," and then shouted using the information he had just heard, "Respected Holy Maiden of the Holy Emperor Palace, please eliminate these demons and restore peace to the Northwest Desert."
"How dare you! Do you want the entire city to die with you?"
Mu Rufeng was furious. This ant, who had been so humble to him just now, now wanted his life? How could he not be angry?
But the city lord ignored his threat and continued to kowtow to Tuoba Beier, the sound of which could be heard by all living beings in the city.
"City Lord!"
Those bordering-realm cultivators shouted one after another, with grief on their faces.
This city was called Yamo City. The city lord, Wang Xiu, was a carefree-realm cultivator. With his cultivation, he could have left the Northwest Desert long ago and not been exploited by the Sand Star Gate, and he wouldn't have to be so humble to the Sand Star Gate's people every year at this time.
But he had never thought of leaving. Even most of the protection money was paid out of his own pocket, because he had grown up eating food from hundreds of families.
Yamo City was originally just a small city with a population of less than 100,000, and all the well-known households in the city had supported Wang Xiu.
After Wang Xiu completed his studies and returned, he took over the old city lord's commission and became the new city lord. After a hundred years of management, the population of Yamo City had also increased to one million.
Since the appearance of the Sand Star Gate, the population of Yamo City had decreased year by year. Now there were less than 500,000 people in the city, and the rest had left the Northwest Desert due to the oppression of the Sand Star Gate.
Those who remained either didn't have the strength to leave the Northwest Desert, or they were reluctant to leave their hometown.
Now that others saw their city lord kneeling down to beg for help again, their emotions burst out.
They came to Wang Xiu and begged him not to kneel anymore. Even if they died, it wouldn't be a big deal, but Wang Xiu didn't listen to their advice and continued to kowtow, praying to Tuoba Beier.
Tuoba Beier didn't react at first, but when she did, she saw Mu Rufeng attacking Wang Xiu.
"A bunch of ants, today I'll send you to hell." Mu Rufeng attacked violently, extending his right hand, turning his hand to create clouds and turning it over to create rain.
Turning clouds and overturning rain!
This was not a great divine power, but using the aura of a Saint to draw upon the power of heaven and earth, summoning wind and rain.
All those below the Saint are ants, because the strong above the Saint can use the power of heaven and earth to condense the might of heaven and earth.
How can ordinary cultivators compete with the might of heaven and earth?
In an instant, dark clouds enveloped the entire city, and hundreds of thousands of living beings in the city suddenly felt a sense of fear and oppression as death descended. At this moment, they could only look up at the might of heaven, feeling extremely desperate in their hearts.
At this moment, the earth trembled slightly, and then, countless earth-brown energy seeped out from the earth. Before people could react, these earth-brown energy rushed straight into the sky like an earth spring, and finally exploded in the sky like fireworks, and the scattered energy turned into an earth-brown energy shield, protecting the entire city in it.
"Boom!"
The powerful might of heaven and earth was like the fist of a newborn infant in front of this brown energy shield. The thunder was loud and the rain was small, and it could not shake the brown energy shield at all. It was shattered by the rebounding force of the energy shield.
"This..." Everyone was dumbfounded, even Mu Rufeng was no exception.
"It's you!"
Mu Rufeng suddenly turned his head to look at Tuoba Beier.
"Who else could it be besides me?" Tuoba Beier said coldly.
"Originally, this place was Aunt Shi's territory, and I shouldn't have interfered, but you actually insulted the Holy Emperor Palace, so I can't ignore it."
"Those who insult the Holy Palace, die!"
(Emmm, I was lazy yesterday, being lazy for a while is so good, being lazy all the time... forget it!)
