114: Chapter 114 Entering the Mortal World for the First Time, Seeing Injustice Along the Way

Leaving the range of the Qingxuan Sect's Guardian Array, Zhao Ruoan and the other two headed south all the way, speeding towards the direction of the Black Wind Mountain Range.

Without the constraints of the Sect's rules, breathing the free air among the mountains and fields, Zhao Ruoan only felt his whole body relaxed and his mood incomparably cheerful.

Qiuyin and Xiamo were leaving the Sect for the first time, coming to this vast Mortal World, and felt everything they saw was novel.

"Wow! Young Master, look at that city below, it is so big!"

"Is that a Mortal city? So many people!"

The two little servant girls leaned against the edge of the spiritual energy barrier propped up by Zhao Ruoan, pointing at a bustling city below and exclaiming chirpily.

Zhao Ruoan smiled and slowed down his flight speed.

This trip to the Black Wind Mountain Range was not something he needed to rush.

According to the Sect's intelligence, the weakening period of the Tianlei Immortal Cave's Restriction would still take more than half a month to arrive.

He could just take advantage of this period of time to thoroughly appreciate the local customs and practices of this world.

After all, although he had undergone Transmigration for some time, most of his time had been spent Cultivating in the Sect, and his understanding of this world was still limited to records in books.

"Do you want to go down and take a look?" Zhao Ruoan asked.

"We want to!" The two little girls said in unison, their small heads nodding like chicks pecking at rice.

"Alright, then let us go down and stroll around."

Zhao Ruoan manipulated the direction and slowly landed in a deserted small woods outside the city.

To avoid drawing too much attention, he changed out of his Sect attire and put on a set of ordinary cyan martial arts robes, looking just like a wealthy Young Master traveling through Jianghu.

Qiuyin and Xiamo also changed into the maid attire they had prepared long ago, following behind him on the left and right.

The three walked into the city gate and were immediately attracted by the lively and bustling scene inside the city.

On the wide bluestone streets, traffic flowed like water and people came and went.

On both sides of the street, shops stood in great numbers; taverns, teahouses, weapon shops, and Medicinal Pill stores had everything one could expect.

Various hawking shouts, shouting, and bargaining sounds were endless, filled with a strong atmosphere of Mortal life.

This was completely different from the cold and solemn atmosphere in the Sect.

"Candied haws! Fragrant and sweet candied haws!"

"Top-quality silk, come and take a look!"

Xiamo looked at the strings of red candied haws held up by the roadside vendor, and her saliva was almost drooling down.

Zhao Ruoan looked at her gluttonous little appearance and could not help laughing, directly taking out a piece of broken silver and buying three strings.

"Here, taste it."

"Thank you, Young Master!"

The two little girls happily took the candied haws, cautiously licked a bite, and their eyes instantly narrowed into slits with happiness.

Zhao Ruoan himself also took a bite, and the sweet and sour taste melted on the tip of his tongue.

This long-lost taste belonging to the Mortal World made him feel incomparably close and relaxed.

The three of them strolled around the city like ordinary tourists, looking east and looking west, buying quite a few novel little gadgets.

Unconsciously, they strolled until noon.

"Gurgle…"

Xiamo's stomach growled at an inopportune time.

"Let us go, find a place to eat."

Zhao Ruoan looked up and pointed at a three-story tavern not far away that looked the most imposing, saying, "Let us go to that one."

That tavern was named "Wangjiang Tower", carved with beams and painted pillars, and extraordinarily magnificent. At a glance, it was the most high-end tavern in the city.

The three had just walked to the door when a waiter greeted them with a smiling face.

"Three esteemed guests, please come inside! Are you stopping for a meal or staying at the inn?"

"Eating," Zhao Ruoan said, and was about to walk inside.

However, the waiter reached out and stopped him, scanning him and the two maidservants, and the smile on his face became somewhat forced.

"This Young Master, I am truly sorry, our Wangjiang Tower has been booked by someone today, and we are temporarily not receiving outside guests. How about you three go take a look at another place?"

"Booked?" Zhao Ruoan raised an eyebrow.

Just at this moment, an arrogant burst of laughter came from inside the tavern, along with a woman's crying and begging sounds.

"Hahaha! Little beauty, just submit to this Young Master!"

"As long as you serve this Young Master happily, I guarantee you will eat good food and drink spicy drinks in the future!"

"Do not… I beg you to let me go… Wuwuwu…"

Hearing this sound, Zhao Ruoan's expression sank.

He turned sideways, and through the front door, he saw that in the main hall of the tavern, a group of youths dressed in luxury and obviously profligate scions were surrounding a shivering young girl in cyan clothes.

That girl looked to be only fifteen or sixteen years old, with a delicate and lovely appearance. At this moment, she was being forcibly dragged by a fat man with a fierce face, streaming with tears and full of panic.

In the corner of the main hall, a middle-aged man was also kneeling, who should be the girl's father, desperately kowtowing and begging for mercy.

"Every Young Master! I beg you to show mercy and let my daughter go! She is still young and does not understand things!"

"Scram! You old thing!"

That fat man kicked the middle-aged man to the ground with one kick, and then lewdly smiled as he went to tear at the girl's clothes.

"Little beauty, do not be afraid, big brother will be very gentle…"

Those profligate scions around not only did not stop him, but instead whistled one by one, booing even more fiercely.

The tavern's shopkeeper and waiters were all cowering behind the counter, each angry but not daring to speak.

Seeing this scene, Qiuyin and Xiamo behind Zhao Ruoan both showed angry expressions on their small faces.

"These people… are simply too hateful!" Xiamo was so angry that her small fists clenched tightly.

Zhao Ruoan's gaze also turned cold.

He originally did not want to mind other people's business.

But this kind of bullying behavior of forcibly seizing commoner women in broad daylight happened to run right into his sights.

He could be ruthless to his enemies, but deep down, he still had the basic conscience and bottom line of being a modern person in his past life.

"Step aside."

Zhao Ruoan spat out two words indifferently to the waiter at the door who was still blocking him.

"Young Master, you… you had better not go in," the waiter turned pale and advised in a low voice, "Those inside are the Young Master of the City Lord's Mansion and his friends, we… we cannot afford to offend them!"

"I will say it again, step aside." There was already a hint of impatience in Zhao Ruoan's voice.

An invisible pressure emanated from his body.

The waiter only felt as if he were being pressed down by a huge mountain, his legs softened, and he collapsed directly onto the ground.

Zhao Ruoan ignored him further, lifted his foot, and stepped into the main gate of Wangjiang Tower in one step.

As soon as he entered, he immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the main hall.

The fat man who was about to make a move on the girl paused his action, turned around unhappily, and shouted, "Where did this blind thing come from? Did you not see this Young Master is busy? Scram out!"

Zhao Ruoan did not speak, only opening his steps, walking step by step towards that fat man.

He walked very slowly, but every step that fell was like a heavy hammer, fiercely striking the hearts of everyone present.

A bone-chilling murderous intent began to pervade the entire main hall.
