I manage female characters in all the heavens.

Immediately afterwards, the suction force turned into pressure, which slammed down on Wang Xian.

He stumbled forward involuntarily, and then—with a thud—his knees slammed heavily onto the bluestone slab, and he knelt before "Tie Xinlan"!

His knee smashed two dents into the hard bluestone slab!

Wang Xian's eyes were bloodshot, and his internal energy was circulating wildly as he tried to break free from the oppressive force and stand up.

However, no matter how much he struggled, that invisible force pressed down on his shoulders like a mountain, making it impossible for him to even straighten his back!

He couldn't even lift his head!

He could only kneel before that girl, like a mortal worshipping a god!

"Impossible... How could this be..."

He gritted his teeth, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, his voice hoarse as if metal were scraping against metal.

Just half a month ago, although this girl's martial arts skills were not weak, she could only withstand a few dozen moves from him before being defeated.

In just over ten days, she not only fully recovered her martial arts skills, but how could she possibly become this strong?!

Wang Xian couldn't understand it.

Sigh, you wouldn't understand unless you used cheat codes.

"Tie Xinlan" made no attempt to explain to him what was going on.

She didn't even glance at Wang Xian.

She maintained the posture of pressing down on Wang Xian from a distance, while casually waving her other hand, streams of pure and sharp Mingyu True Qi swept out like bolts of lightning!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Wherever the true energy passed, the servants and guards who tried to flank from both sides or were hiding in the shadows preparing to launch a sneak attack with hidden weapons, along with the walls, pillars, and artificial hills where they were hiding, were all smashed to pieces!

Screams, the sound of collapse, and wailing filled the air.

Jiang Yuyan stood beside "Tie Xinlan," watching the terrifying force that precisely bypassed her body and blasted away the enemy, her eyes filled with shock and admiration.

This is what a true strong person is.

His words became law, and he held the power of life and death.

After "Tie Xinlan" reduced most of the Wang family manor to ruins, finally, no guard dared to approach anymore.

No matter how high the salary, it's not worth risking your life against this kind of monster!

In the distance, the surviving servants knelt amidst the ruins, trembling and begging for mercy.

"Tie Xinlan" stopped her destructive actions, lowered her head, and looked at Wang Xian, who was kneeling in front of her, shedding tears of blood.

Where is Master Wang?

Her voice was calm, yet carried an undeniable air of authority.

It's really inappropriate that Wang Yuanwai, as the head of the Wang family, didn't even say a few polite words after his own home was so damaged; he probably wasn't even there.

Wang Xian gritted his teeth, remained silent for a moment, and then squeezed out a few words from between his teeth: "...My elder brother left Yunhai City yesterday."

Where did you go?

"...Jiangnan, Anqing City."

Wang Xian's voice suppressed anger and fear: "Jiang Biehe, the great hero of Jiangnan, will be celebrating his fortieth birthday soon. My elder brother has a past relationship with the great hero Jiang and has been invited to the banquet."

Tie Xinlan's gaze shifted slightly.

Jiang Biehe, that name is legendary.

Known as the "Great Hero of Jiangnan," Jiang Biehe was famous throughout the land for his generosity, righteousness, and wide circle of friends. In the martial arts world, everyone who mentioned Jiang Biehe gave him a thumbs up.

In the storyline of "The Little Fish and the Flower Without Flaws", the true face of this "Great Hero of Jiangnan" is far less glamorous than it appears on the surface.

This is an even worse hypocrite than Yue Buqun. At least Yue Buqun had his own helplessness in becoming that way, while Jiang Biehe's actions were purely subjective.

When Jiang Yuyan, who was standing next to her, heard the name "Jiang Biehe," her body trembled slightly.

That was the father she was looking for on her journey south.

Unexpectedly, before even reaching Jiangnan, I heard this name, and from the mouth of such an enemy.

What I never expected was that my father had connections with someone like Master Wang, which meant that my father might...

She lowered her head, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes.

Tie Xinlan did not turn around, but seemed to sense her silence.

Don't overthink it.

Her voice softened slightly: "Jiang Biehe is Jiang Biehe, and you are you. People cannot choose their birth, but they can choose what kind of person they want to become."

"Besides..." she paused, then chuckled softly, "Who says Jiang Biehe is necessarily the way you imagine him to be?"

He's much worse than you imagine him based on just a few hearsay tales.

Jiang Yuyan looked up at Tie Xinlan's back and the complex emotions in her heart gradually calmed down.

Although "Tie Xinlan" didn't mean that at all, Jiang Yuyan felt that it meant her father wasn't as bad as she imagined, which comforted her.

Tie Xinlan withdrew her hand and her gaze returned to Wang Xian.

"Since Master Wang is not here..."

She leaned down slightly, looking at Wang Xian's face, contorted with anger, a cold smile playing on her lips:

"Then let's start with you and collect some interest."

After a while.

Wang Xian's screams echoed over the ruins for a long time before gradually subsiding.

After absorbing Wang Xian's martial arts knowledge using the Absorption Technique, "Tie Xinlan" tortured him thoroughly before killing him.

She didn't want Wang Xian's power for the time being, lest the mixed true energy cause hidden dangers and affect her combat power.

If you want to gain power, it's best to absorb it when you're about to leave this world, so you can absorb it all at once. Otherwise, having a bunch of mixed true energy in your body will eventually be a safety hazard.

When "Tie Xinlan" left the Wang family with Jiang Yuyan, the once magnificent and luxurious Wang family mansion in Yunhai City had been completely reduced to rubble.

Only after the commotion at the Prince's residence subsided did some people dare to come and check the situation.

Amidst the ruins, blood flowed like a river; not a single person survived in the entire palace!

The news spread, and the entire city of Yunhai was shaken.

No one knows the killer's background, nor what deep-seated hatred he had for the Wang family that led him to commit such a ruthless act of annihilation.

But soon, people discovered that this was just the beginning.

That night, in Yunhai City, all the scoundrels, gang members, and fraudsters who usually bullied men and women and committed illegal acts were massacred!

Overnight, more than a thousand people were beaten to death or maimed.

Blood soaked almost every street and alley in Yunhai City.

Everyone knows who the murderer is. At every crime scene, there remains the same chilling, demonic aura, exactly the same as that left on the ruins of the Wang family.

"It's that demon who wiped out the Wang family!"

"What exactly is he trying to do?!"

"Does this mean they intend to massacre Yunhai City?"

"Run! Escape the sea of ​​clouds!"

Panic spread through the city like a plague.

People everywhere in the streets and alleys were discussing where this great demon had come from and how he could have done such a horrifying thing.

And the one who started all of this, "Tie Xinlan," is currently sitting on the top floor of the best restaurant in the city, leisurely sipping a pot of fine Biluochun tea.

Everyone who witnessed her committing the crime is dead. No one knew that the person who did such a heinous crime would be such a beautiful girl who looked no more than sixteen or seventeen years old.

Outside the window, the sky was gradually brightening, while cries and riots rose and fell throughout the city.

Jiang Yuyan sat opposite her, watching the figures fleeing in panic outside the window, her eyes devoid of pity.

She simply asked softly, "Lord Yingri, how long shall we stay here?"

Tie Xinlan put down her teacup: "I'll leave after I finish eating. I'm going to Anqing to find your father."

During the meal, she overheard people in the restaurant discussing something that interested them.

The fact that "Tie Xinlan" committed such a major crime naturally alarmed the city lord of Yunhai City.

He was furious and ordered a thorough investigation to find the murderer and bring him to justice, in order to uphold the law of the country.

They even specially deployed troops into the city to blockade it, making it impossible for the murderer to escape.

"Escape? Me?" Lord Yingri sneered, deciding to show himself and meet this arrogant city lord.

Jiang Yuyan sighed, "Lord Yingri was already planning to shelve his sword, but this city lord has walked right into it himself... really..."

A moment later, the city lord's mansion, even more magnificent and grand than the Wang family's, came into view. Armored soldiers patrolled everywhere, their military might was imposing, and the defenses were formidable.

This is hardly a city lord's mansion; it's more like a military fortress. But that's not surprising, since a city lord's mansion, as the last line of defense after a city falls, was built as a fortress.

The troops stationed here are also elite, with 100% armor coverage and numbering over a thousand.

But this meant nothing to Lord Yingri, the third master of Yihua Palace and a peerless martial artist; she was targeting the elite!

After spending more than ten minutes fighting their way in and out of the military fortress, creating several holes that were open from front to back, the defending army collapsed and fled.

They screamed wildly, abandoned their armor and weapons, and shouted "They're not human! They're not human at all!" They ran all the way out of the city without daring to stop.

A middle-aged man in an official robe, sweating profusely, stumbled and trembled as he approached, surrounded by a group of terrified but obliged guards.

It was the city lord of Yunhai City.

Behind him were several powerful guards, but they were all trembling and their eyes were filled with terror as they looked at "Tie Xinlan".

In this state, let alone making them take action, even if "Tie Xinlan" raised her voice slightly, she would scare them away.

He Qingcang was covered in sweat. This city lord, whose word was law in Yunhai City, had no trace of his usual majesty on his face, only fear and embarrassment.

When he saw the stunningly beautiful girl in front of him, his legs went weak and he almost knelt down.

"Miss... young lady..."
