Jiang Wang put away the carp-patterned red flag and leaped off the city wall. S?a??h th? Nov?lF?re .??t website on G??gl? to access chapters of n?vels early and in the highest quality.The city lord''s seal was a valuable item that he could have saved, but he chose not to.


    The current situation in Jia City is in desperate need of help.


    The Law family uses power to enforce the law, and it is a grand and righteous path.


    Gathering the power of the entire city and spreading the seal in all directions should have been a mutually beneficial act, promoting growth and prosperity for all. But now, the hearts of the people in Jia City are wounded, and forcing extravagance will only be a temporary solution.


    Letting it disperse will return the city''s vitality to the people, saving countless lives.


    Leaping off the city wall, he entered the inner city.


    The entire city became even quieter.


    It felt as if he had entered a dead city.


    The city lord and his Transcendent guards all died in battle, and no one dares to show their face here.


    Or perhaps, there is no one left willing to stand up for the Xi family.


    Jiang Wang continued to walk forward, adapting to the changes in his body.


    The mysteries of the Ming Candle are not worth mentioning.


    It should be said that the newly completed Four Spirits Refining Body Technique saved his life. Without the physical defense of the Four Spirits Refining Body, he might not have been able to withstand the punishment of the Thunder of Punishment, even if it was not at its full power.


    The military uses tactics to gather and consolidate forces, while the Law family uses power to enforce the law. Both are grand and righteous paths, worthy of being the prominent schools of the present era.


    He is simply following his heart and practicing the principles, but the Three Swords of Heaven, Earth, and Man have made a breakthrough because of this.


    He has become stronger, but the barriers of Heaven and Earth have become more solid.


    Different from the foundational Meridian Realm and Circulating Realm, the Transcendent Realm is right before the separation of Heaven and Man.


    It naturally has a vast space for exploration.


    Many people regard the limit of the Transcendent Realm as the limit that an ordinary body can reach. But historically, only those arrogant figures could reach it.


    Jiang Wang is gradually approaching that limit now.


    Turning the corner, he saw a soldier in leather armor ahead, not knowing what he was up to. As soon as he saw Jiang Wang, he turned and ran.


    But how could he escape when he hasn''t even reached the Transcendent Realm?


    Jiang Wang easily caught up and grabbed him by the back of his neck, throwing him to the ground. "Where is Xi Zichu?"


    This person was clearly terrified, but he gritted his teeth and said, "I don''t know!"


    "I won''t kill you. There are not many people left who are willing to protect this city at a time like this!" Jiang Wang said, walking away.


    "You are also one of them!" the soldier suddenly shouted from behind, "Young Master Xi is also protecting this city!"


    Jiang Wang ignored him.


    It''s not difficult to find Xi Zichu. His memories can point the way, and the place where Transcendent cultivators gather in the city should be where Xi Zichu is hiding.


    Finally, he arrived at a small courtyard, the one outside the Xi family''s estate.


    He has been to this small courtyard several times.


    Each time he came, he saw something different.


    The first time, beautiful maidservants led the way, and beautiful women poured wine.


    The second time, he didn''t even enter the gate.


    This time, the gate was wide open, and the once artificial mountain and pavilion were nowhere to be seen.


    Everywhere were plague-stricken patients, lying wherever they could.


    The sounds of sorrow, weeping, coughing, mixed with the smell of medicine and blood, all came rushing at him.


    Of course, there were no beautiful maidservants or women, only doctors rushing around in tightly wrapped clothing.


    Jiang Wang walked through the courtyard, and no one asked him anything.


    No one cared who he was, what he was doing, or what he wanted to do.


    Finally, he stood in front of Xi Zichu.


    The sword was still in his hand, having killed so many people, yet his appearance was still free of any bloodstains.


    At that moment, Xi Zichu was giving acupuncture to a patient, and behind him, there was a long line of plague-stricken patients.


    If he hadn''t reached the Transcendent Realm, he would probably have died of the plague long ago.


    Jiang Wang sheathed his sword. From Qingyang Town to this place, his killing intent had dissipated.


    After Xi Zichu finished treating the patient in front of him, he glanced at Jiang Wang and quickly turned to attend to another patient.


    He said, "Messenger, please leave. I don''t have time to entertain you right now, let alone fight with you."


    Perhaps he was really tired, or perhaps his time spent with the plague-stricken patients had brought about some subtle changes in him.


    Normally, he wouldn''t speak so directly.


    Jiang Wang looked around. There were many Transcendent cultivators in this small courtyard, but everyone was busy, not asking about external matters, and fully focused on fighting the plague, just like Zhubei Qiong and the others before.


    "How long have you been doing these things?"


    "I don''t remember, there''s no need to remember!"


    "Hasn''t anyone told you anything?" Jiang Wang asked.


    "Told me what?" Xi Zichu replied impatiently.


    Perhaps it was disappointment, or fear. Perhaps there was simply no one left to distract him with news.


    In any case, no one informed him that Xi Munan had died.


    "Your father was negligent, and I killed him!"


    Xi Zichu suddenly stood up, glaring at Jiang Wang with a pair of weary eyes, filled with killing intent.


    "This is no joke!"


    Jiang Wang noticed that as soon as he said this, the atmosphere changed. Almost all the patients, doctors, and Transcendent cultivators there turned hostile towards him.


    This actually gave him some comfort. It meant that at least here, Xi Zichu still had some support."You go save the people first, I''ll be right here, I won''t run away!" Jiang Wang said, "This city seems to be sick. Medicine is not my forte, I came to seek answers from you."


    He asked, "To treat a serious illness, one must use strong medicine. What do you think?"


    "You are not welcome here!" Xi Zichu said coldly as he sat down.


    He absolutely did not believe that Xi Munan, who held the seal of the Jia City Lord and the Red Carp Banner, could be killed by Jiang Wang, a cultivator of the Tongtian Realm.


    No matter how strong he was, it was impossible.


    Despite this, he couldn''t bear such a conversation. But due to the critically ill patient in front of him, he couldn''t lash out immediately.


    "By now, you should be clear that your treatment here is merely a drop in the bucket; it won''t stop the spread of the plague! You should immediately seek help from the Yang Court and disclose the true situation to all the people in the domain. Mobilize all forces, lock down the entire domain, isolate the contagion, and then conduct a house-to-house search! Treat each person individually!"


    Xi Zichu fell silent. As a cultivator from the Eastern King Valley, especially after personally dealing with countless patients recently, how could he not know?


    Jiang Wang was right to say that the Jia City Lord had been negligent!


    "This thing can help you."


    Jiang Wang took out the Red Carp Banner from his bosom and threw it in front of Xi Zichu.


    This banner was the city flag of Jia City. Although it was tattered, it was still a treasure.


    Jiang Wang threw it without a hint of reluctance.


    Because at this moment, only Xi Zichu could mobilize all forces to the greatest extent to fight against the plague. And the Red Carp Banner could only play its greatest role in his hands.


    Xi Zichu saw the Red Carp Banner, first stunned, then furious as a madman!


    The presence of this city flag here was enough to prove that what Jiang Wang said was true. He wasn''t joking, not speaking out of resentment; he had indeed killed Xi Munan!


    Inside the Tongtian Palace, Dao Yuan surged, and Xi Zichu rose to his feet.


    But a pair of hands pressed down on his shoulders.


    With the surging Dao Yuan flowing ceaselessly, Jiang Wang held down Xi Zichu, directly confronting him with Dao Yuan in the most direct collision.


    As a result of the collision, Xi Zichu sat back down in his original place.


    "I can kill you now, and you can kill me now! But the most important thing at the moment is to save the people of the entire city. Our personal grievances are trivial; we can settle them after this is over!"


    "The vengeance for my father''s death is irreconcilable!" Xi Zichu, long exhausted and momentarily subdued, couldn''t suppress his hatred and snarled with bared teeth.


    "Your father, as the city lord, concealed the epidemic. How many fathers and mothers did he kill? How many sons and daughters?"


    Jiang Wang roared even louder: "You can seek revenge on me, but first, you must face their vengeance. Resolve the hatred of the hundreds of thousands of Jia City''s people. Otherwise, what right do you have to die, and what grounds do you have to talk about vengeance?"


    Xi Zichu was immobilized, but his eyes bled: "I will definitely kill you, Jiang Wang! I will definitely kill you!"


    "Do what you must, and then, I''ll be waiting for you!"


    Jiang Wang released his grip, and amidst countless complex gazes, he turned and left the place.


    ...


    After Jiang Wang left.


    The Jia City Lord''s Mansion finally posted a new announcement to the public, officially starting a lockdown of the entire domain, isolating every household.


    However, this day came too late.


    The plague had already fully erupted.
