Chapter 108 The Manifestation of the 'Domain River', The Death of the Jiang Family Ancestor
Li Qingcang's lethal finger energy arrived in an instant, appearing as if it would pierce through Gu Ye's body. He caught a glimpse of Gu Ye manifesting a small cauldron in a futile attempt at defense, and a thick flash of mockery and disdain immediately flickered in the depths of his eyes.
He believed that with his strength as a Gold-rank Card Master, killing a Bronze-rank Card Master would be as easy as crushing an ant.
"Die!"
Li Qingcang let out a harsh roar, and his finger energy surged in power by another thirty percent. But at this critical juncture, a terrifying pressure as vast as an abyss suddenly descended, enveloping the entire playground of Yunlin Second High School!
The majestic pressure was like an invisible mountain, pressing down until everyone present felt their bodies stiffen. Their hearts were wrapped in extreme fear as their legs buckled and their bodies hunched over, lacking even the strength to lift their heads.
This pressure seemed to cover the entire field, but in reality, it precisely locked onto Li Qingcang alone with chilling killing intent.
The mockery on Li Qingcang's face instantly froze, replaced by extreme terror. His muscles were taut and he was unable to move; the spiritual energy throughout his body had completely stagnated.
He could only watch helplessly as Gu Ye took a composed step back, completely moving out of his attack range.
Gu Ye looked up into the sky and saw two figures, one tall and one short—it was Ning Shijun and Bu Yao.
The Little Loli, Bu Yao, smiled and waved at him, and Gu Ye responded with a smile as well.
Ning Shijun withdrew the pressure, looked down at Li Qingcang on the ground, and calmly uttered a single word:
"Extinguish!"
Li Qingcang's body instantly exploded, turning into a pool of blood.
Ning Shijun withdrew his gaze and let it fall upon the rostrum, where Mu Xuefei was staring at him warily.
Ning Shijun turned to look at the Principal, Zhang Deliang, and spoke slowly:
"Teacher, I am going to begin."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Deliang's expression shifted several times. Finally, he let out a sigh, lowered his eyes, and looked toward Gu Ye:
"Is it because of him?"
"I suppose so!"
Gu Ye was extremely surprised to hear their conversation; the Principal was actually Uncle Jun's teacher.
Hearing that Uncle Jun's plan was moved forward because of him left him very confused, and his gaze inadvertently drifted to his own first-place position on the screen.
Gu Ye instantly realized why. Since he had taken first place in the College Entrance Examination, it meant that all the higher education institutions across the entire Federation would extend olive branches to him.
This meant many high-level Card Masters would come to Yunlin City. Furthermore, he possessed a treasure like the spirit sealing cauldron; once the Noble Families found out, they would certainly arrange for Card Masters to come to Yunlin City as well.
At this moment, Bu Yao, who was beside Ning Shijun, came over to Gu Ye's side.
Bu Yao had an arrogant look on her face. She wanted to reach out and pat Gu Ye's shoulder, but finding she couldn't reach, she settled for the next best thing and patted his arm.
She said with a mysterious air:
"Little Ye, now that your Uncle Jun has broken through to the Legendary Realm, you don't have to worry about wolves in front and tigers behind anymore."
Yan Shuangling and the others looked at Gu Ye with astonishment. Gu Ye had given them too many surprises, and now there was the addition of an elder in the Legendary Realm.
A flash of surprise crossed Gu Ye's eyes. Since Uncle Jun's strength had surged, the success rate of their plan would definitely be very high. He asked with some curiosity:
"When will you start?"
Bu Yao was full of excitement, her voice rising a few notches:
"Right now!"
Before her voice had even faded, the Card Domain located in the northeast corner of Yunlin City, 'the utopia of the mysterious girl', suddenly expanded violently, rapidly moving to envelop the entire city.
The 'domain river' hidden in the void appeared simultaneously, descending over Yunlin City and causing panic among all the citizens.
The people on the playground looked up at the sky. Gu Ye's pupils dilated as he watched the approaching 'domain river'.
"What is this!"
"How could the domain river descend over Yunlin City?"
As the highest combat powers in Yunlin City, the City Mayor and the spokespeople of the Four Great Families rose into the air, their expressions filled with confusion. They also didn't understand what was happening.
The manifestation of the 'domain river' caught the attention of all Mythic Rank Card Masters across the globe, and all their gazes turned toward Yunlin City.
After Ning Shijun and Zhang Deliang chatted for a few moments, he flew toward the sky, and Bu Yao also left Gu Ye's side.
Ning Shijun looked down at the crowd below and spoke:
"Has everything been investigated clearly?"
"It has been investigated. These are all their files."
A card suddenly flew from the void into Ning Shijun's hand, and a tall woman stepped out from the void to his side.
"Sister!"
Bu Yao called out weakly, clearly very afraid of this elder sister of hers.
After Ning Shijun used the card, he looked down at the crowd below and announced:
"Everyone of Yunlin City, I am the Grand Preceptor of Great Benevolence—Ning Shijun.
I shall now announce one thing: from this moment forth, I shall be the master of Yunlin City."
When the citizens of Yunlin City heard his words, the commoners felt nothing in particular, but those from the Noble Families felt a surge of anger welling up in their hearts.
Yan Zhenyue and the spokespeople of the Four Great Families all arrived in the air above the Second High School, looking at the strangers before them.
"Who are you, and what do you intend to do in Yunlin City?" The Jiang family ancestor, Jiang Hai, came forward with a string of questions.
All five of them saw the Card Domain in the distance that was continuously enveloping Yunlin City.
"You do not need to know, because you are about to die."
Ning Shijun recalled the crimes of this Jiang family ancestor before him—consuming the hearts of young girls, the blood of young boys, and so on. Every single crime was too numerous to record.
"You!"
Jiang Hai's face was filled with fury. As the ancestor of the Jiang family, this was the first time someone had declared a death sentence upon him.
Ning Shijun waved his hand gently, and a bolt of lightning instantly struck down, ending Jiang Hai's life. This Diamond-rank powerhouse, who had lived for hundreds of years, died just like that.
The moment Ning Shijun made his move, Yan Zhenyue and the other three immediately captured his aura.
Yan Zhenyue spoke in terror:
"You are a Legendary-rank powerhouse!"
The other three had already developed thoughts of retreating the moment Jiang Hai died. Now, without a second thought, the three of them immediately fled into the distance.
Ning Shijun only spared them a glance and did not pursue.
He was waiting!!
He looked at Yan Zhenyue before him. "Do you wish to stop me?"
"I..."
Yan Zhenyue's voice trembled slightly. Just recently, a Mythic Rank powerhouse had descended upon Yunlin City, though it hadn't caused any losses.
He had just breathed a sigh of relief, only for a Legendary-rank powerhouse to arrive in Yunlin City a month later. This one was even more ruthless, directly wanting to seize the entire city.
Ning Shijun had looked into Yan Zhenyue; he was considered a good mayor. Although he had some minor flaws, they didn't affect Ning Shijun's favorable impression of him.
Liking manga, cosplay, and calling people 'mother' while playing Valorant might be considered minor flaws for a figure of his stature!
"Sigh—!"
Ning Shijun sighed and waved his hand gently, directly sending him away from Yunlin City.
Meanwhile, the Domain Suppression Department in the Imperial Capital received a distress call from Yunlin City. Upon hearing that a Legendary-rank powerhouse was preparing to occupy the entire city, they realized the problem was quite significant.
The report was quickly passed up through the ranks, and after ten minutes, the news finally reached the hands of Director Long Yuan.
Long Yuan was not only a General of the Guardian Army but also the Director of the entire Domain Suppression Department.
After seeing this message, he gave a meaningful smile and then ordered two Legendary-rank powerhouses to go and resolve the crisis in Yunlin City.
Whether it was intentional on Long Yuan's part or not, the two people he dispatched were both members of the Li family from the Imperial Capital.
