Reincarnated as a demon from Douluo Continent, guarding peace in the human world.

Since Chapter 30 is wrong, it cannot be abandoned halfway.

Xiao stood in front of the soldiers, and with Pu Yuan's help, with a light flick, the soldiers who were about to execute Viscount Jack's servants were immediately knocked back several steps.

The few survivors wet their pants, their faces beaming with the joy of surviving a disaster.

Qian Renxue stepped forward and smiled, "Xiao, why did you save them? They are all sinners. Killing them would be perfectly reasonable for them."

The soldiers watched Xiao warily, unable to ignore the astonishing killing intent emanating from him.

Qian Renxue's eyes were filled with a smile, radiating warmth and friendliness.

Xiao shook his head and said, "It's not over yet. There's more than just Viscount Jack as a villain."

He looked around and saw Qian Renxue, the court soul masters, and the ordinary soldiers. All of them were eager to come over and silence Viscount Jack.

Although Xiao doesn't have a deep understanding of humans, he's not stupid.

Do they really think no one can guess what they're here for?

"Evil must be eradicated completely," Xiao said as he put the siblings down.

Seeing this, Qian Renxue pretended to sigh with difficulty, but a look of surprise flashed in her eyes.

If Xiao takes things so seriously, he will definitely break with the Heavenly Dou Empire in the end!

Now might be the turning point.

Qian Renxue said, "Xiao, don't you believe in the laws of the Heavenly Dou Empire? We prohibit the existence of slaves, so Viscount Jack could only do it secretly. We..."

"I don't believe it."

Xiao shook his head.

"..." Qian Renxue was stunned for a moment, not expecting Xiao to be so disrespectful and reject her directly?

His expression turned slightly embarrassed. "Xiao..."

"How utterly disrespectful! Xiao! As an unparalleled national hero of the Heavenly Dou Empire, receiving the emperor's favor, how dare you treat His Highness the Crown Prince like this?! Are you courting death?"

A court-affiliated Soul Master angrily questioned.

Xiao gave him a cold look.

The pressure, almost solidifying, suddenly rushed towards me.

The palace soul master immediately took several steps back, his face pale, and hurriedly shut his mouth, fearing that he would be targeted by Xiao.

Xiao quickly withdrew his gaze; there was no resentment from innocent people on these people.

In short, the crime does not warrant death.

Xiao calmly said, "Let the people outside in."

"..." Everyone looked at each other, wondering what Xiao was up to now.

Qian Renxue sighed and instructed those around her, "Do as he says."

A moment later, the subordinate who went out to do this returned with a group of pedestrians, all of whom were residents of Tiandou City. They had all heard about the commotion at Viscount Jack's mansion and followed in out of curiosity.

More than a hundred people came in, but most of them blocked the entrance and dared not go any further.

Upon seeing Viscount Jack's corpse, they all showed expressions of surprise and delight.

"Good! This scourge is finally dead! He shouldn't have lived! Finally, someone has taken action! Poor children..."

"Was it that boy who did the killing? His weapon looks a lot like Viscount Jack's wounds!"

"Regardless of the reasoning, anyone who can kill Viscount Jack is our hero!"

"..."

The crowd was abuzz with discussion, as Viscount Jack's death was a cause for celebration.

Xiao looked at them and asked, "Does anyone know who Viscount Jack is colluding with to kidnap these young girls?"

"..."

The crowd fell silent, hesitant to speak.

They looked at the soldiers around them, none of them daring to say anything.

You know, the common people don't fight against officials. These people are obviously sent by the royal family. If they expose Viscount Jack's shortcomings, aren't they just asking for trouble?

If you can't deal with the Xiao, can't you at least deal with them?

"Sister" tugged at Xiao's sleeve.

Xiao bent down, pressing his ear against the other's mouth.

"Sister" whispered, "Fairy Brother, they're scared!"

The older sister's voice wasn't quiet; everyone around could hear it.

The faces of the people who entered couldn't help but turn slightly red, even though they often cursed Viscount Jack in private.

But when they actually met, even if Viscount Jack had become a corpse, they dared not say anything.

Xiao nodded slightly and looked at Qian Renxue, saying, "Please assure the Crown Prince that you will not hold a grudge against them for speaking the truth. Furthermore, if I find out, I will not let any of the perpetrators go unpunished."

Xiao emphasized his tone, his gaze sweeping over the faces of the court soul masters.

No one dared to meet Xiao's gaze; they all either lowered their heads or turned away, avoiding any eye contact.

Qian Renxue smiled and smoothed things over, saying:

"Of course, Xiao, what do you take us for? Would the Heavenly Dou Empire's royal family harm our own people? Rest assured, I can guarantee it!"

Qian Renxue looked at everyone and introduced herself: "I am Crown Prince Xue Qinghe. I assure you that I will not be punished for my words."

"!!!" Everyone stared blankly at Qian Renxue, not yet completely convinced by her.

Qian Renxue continued:

"And this Mr. Xiao is an unparalleled national hero of the Heaven Dou Empire. He is a man of his word, and because other national heroes had committed the crime of killing innocent people, he had them all executed."

"When His Majesty bestowed upon him a reward, Mr. Xiao asked for nothing; he only asked us to convey a message."

"If you encounter difficulties such as being lost in the wilderness, being robbed on the road, being attacked by water, fire, or weapons, being harmed by ghosts, gods, or poisons, being attacked by ferocious beasts or poisonous insects, or being attacked by enemies or wicked people, then call upon my name."

The Three-Eyed, Five-Manifested Immortal—Xiao—heeds the summons and comes to protect.

After Qian Renxue finished speaking her last sentence, the entire space fell silent.

Over the years, the people have heard too many people make grand promises to protect them, but almost none of them have actually done so!

Has the Xiao that Qian Renxue mentioned actually done it?

"Sister" shouted, "I can attest that it's all true! When I was in the dungeon, I called for the fairy brother, and then the fairy brother appeared and saved me!"

The older sister looked serious as she explained to the others.

The crowd hesitated, when suddenly someone shouted from within the crowd.

"I know! That bastard Viscount Jack, he... he's connected to the owner of the Grand Auction House! Many young girls were abducted through the Grand Auction House!"

"To completely eradicate this evil, we must investigate the Grand Auction House!"

"..."

Immediately, some of the Soul Masters brought by Qian Renxue changed color.

"Who said that? Out..."

Before the palace soul master could finish speaking, a powerful burst of energy suddenly erupted, instantly sending him flying!

He coughed up a large mouthful of blood in mid-air, fell to the ground, and could do nothing more.

Xiao gave him a cold look and snapped, "Shut up!"

"..." The palace soul master gritted his teeth, glaring angrily at Xiao, but dared not speak out.

Xiao then looked at the criminals who had just been nearly executed and said, "You will all come with me to the Grand Auction House. If you know any other evidence related to these crimes, tell me as well."

The criminals remained silent, cautiously observing Qian Renxue and the others, hesitant and uncertain.

If they leak it, won't their families be doomed?
