Wang Wu, Wang Wen, Du Fei, and Fang Lu were all taken aback. Only then did they realize the magnitude of the ss they had created.
Only Liu Tong, with his head held high and a lancholic expression, realized that he could never be the hero today, no matter what.
"So...so...what do we do now?" In her anxiety, Fang Lu began to stamr, and tears started to well up in her eyes.
It was then that the usually silent Jin Tiegang suddenly began to speak, "Miss Fang..."
Fang Lan looked at Jin Tiegang.
After a mont of contemplation, Jin Tiegang said, "I will take this opportunity to fight for you!"
With that, he turned to the Jin family guards surrounding them, coldly stating, "None of you saw or heard anything today!"
"We saw nothing, heard nothing!" The Jin family guards all echoed in unison.
In a great family like theirs, hierarchy is well defined, and status clear cut.
Jin Tiegang may not an much in front of the mbers of the Jin Family, but amongst the outsiders, as a steward given the Jin surna, he was seen as godlike and superior!
All these guards were his confidants, whose words were naturally undoubtedly effective.
As for the musicians, there was no need for warnings;! None of them would dare to ddle in such affairs unless they were bored with life.
Moreover, Jin Tiegang's actions could be seen as a display of chivalry in many people's eyes, sothing praiseworthy. No one would dare to tattle, for fear of being despised and riddled with guilt.
Everyone stood still, staring blankly at Jin Tiegang.
Fang Lan was dumbfounded, "Mr. Jin, you…?"
"I'm rely trying to fight for a chance for you, Miss Fang. I can't guarantee if I'll be successful, though. And…" Jin Tiegang paused, glancing at Wang Wu who was beaming with joy, before saying quietly, "Whether it works out or not, I must tell you, Miss Fang, that man is not the one for you!"
Wang Wu's face... fell instantly. Disbelieving, he stared at Jin Tiegang, wanting to curse him, but the guard's status and deanor silenced his curses before they reached his lips.
Fang Lan, a gentle and understanding woman, appreciated Jin Tiegang's goodwill. However, letting go of the affection she had nurtured for years was not an easy task.
She sighed softly, "Brother Wu may be a bit impulsive, but he has always taken good care of since we were young. I won't abandon him."
Upon hearing her words, Wang Wu's face lit up again.
Jin Tiegang seed to want to say sothing, but upon second thought, he withheld his words, rely giving a smile and looking at Liu Tong, "You might be able to be my match in five years, but for now, you are no match for . This matter has been settled. Do you really want to go on?"
"No more." Liu Tong was no fool. Seeing that the matter had been sorted out, he was embarrassed to stay any longer. He was glad that he hadn't exposed his sect, or he would have been utterly humiliated.
Without any hesitation, he left right away, not even sparing a mont to say goodbye to Du Fei and the others.
Jin Tiegang looked at Fang Lu, "Miss Fang, would you like to visit Jinxiu City? I promise no one will dare harm you while I am around."
"I…I…" Fang Lu had snuck out without her parent's knowledge, and after causing such a stir, how could she just simply go ho? Besides, she had heard of the hustle and bustle of Jinxiu City for a long ti and had always wanted to visit. There just never seed to be the right opportunity.
So, she timidly glanced at Fang Lan.
Fang Lan frowned, apparently wanting to decline. However, in the end, she let out a sigh and said, "Get on the cart."
At this mont, Jin Tiegang turned his gaze to Wang Wu and the others, his eyes severe.
Only then did the full extent of his capability as a mid-level Foundation Establishnt cultivator show.
Wang Wu could feel his legs turning weak under the massive pressure, making him want to kneel. He gritted his teeth, stood there, straightening his back, not letting himself make a sound of pain.
"Hmph!" Jin Tiegang huffed dismissively and withdrew his aura.
Only then did Wang Wu and the others breathe a sigh of relief, despite being covered in sweat..
"You… leave. I will not bother you, but rember to use your minds the next ti you decide to do sothing! If it were anyone other than , you would be corpses by now!" Jin Tiegang finished, giving the order "Move out!"
The whole convoy slowly started off, leaving behind Wang Wu and the others, standing there helpless, watching the convoy slowly disappearing into the distance.
On the mountain top, the Rooster was praising, "This man really knows how to get things done! That Miss Fang of Fang Family, she is a smart woman!"
Chu Mo nodded, amazed that he ran into such a drama right after entering the Spirit Realm.
This piqued his interest in the Jin family, and that bustling Jinxiu City.
"Let's head to Jinxiu City first, get settled there, then find a place for Foundation Establishnt!" Chu Mo decided, looking at the Rooster.
"Fair enough, since establishing the Five Elents involves a serious cultivation process, it can't be rushed. It's best to understand the situation here before proceeding." The Rooster, for once, didn't disagree with Chu Mo.
And so, Chu Mo and the Rooster followed the convoy at a distance, blending in like tourists.
However, a day later.
As Chu Mo and the Rooster were cautiously trailing behind them, a figure suddenly appeared, blocking their path.
"Friend, you have followed us for so long. Are you also interested in righting the wrongs and rescuing the kidnapped girl?" Jin Tiegang stood there on his horse, emanating an overwhelming presence.
Chu Mo had seen many advanced cultivators in the Illusive God Realm, but Jin Tiegang, with only a Foundation Establishnt level of cultivation, yet such an imposing deanor, was quite rare.
His level may not be high, but he had made every step cautiously and diligently. This made him different from the so-called cultivation geniuses.
In fact, Chu Mo felt that if Jin Tiegang had the right inheritance, he might even be able to challenge Grand Dacheng cultivators with his current level of cultivation!
In fact, Jin Tiegang had noticed Chu Mo and the Rooster early on. When the two were hiding on the mountain, he had detected their presence due to his sharp senses.
He didn't pay much mind to them, though.
After all, this was the territory of Jinxiu City, and the Jin family was a powerful force in the city. Nobody would dare make trouble here without giving it so serious thought.
However, he didn't expect that this man, accompanied by a chicken, would follow him all the way to Jinxiu City. This made Jin Tiegang wary.
The quiet ones are usually the most dangerous, and their unpredictability adds to the threat they pose.
Chu Mo smiled at Jin Tiegang, "We wish to travel to Jinxiu City, but don't know the way, would the gentleman guide us?"
Jin Tiegang was taken aback, then he held back a smile: "It's no trouble, co with ."
