Chapter 264 - Double-Edged Sword

While Bai Rouyun was calmly accepting the hidden strength of Jiang Wei, both the bandits and the companions from the Blue Water Institute were horrified. The students from the Blue Water Institute were all pale, and sweat began to bead on their foreheads, as they dared not move.

This strength was not only surprising these experts, even the ones from the Eternal Shadow Palace were feeling rather uncomfortable seeing that he could burst out with such power.

Their discomfort was not rooted in jealousy or envy, but pure worry for whether or not this man had ulterior motives by hiding within the Eternal Shadow Palace.

However, when they looked at Bai Rouyun’s calm expression as she looked out the window, they all felt a strange assurance, and their worries calmed down.

Jiang Wei raised an eyebrow as he noticed how these experts from the Eternal Shadow Palace were able to keep themselves hidden.

"It seems that this Miss Bai is able to give them a sense of confidence," he muttered as he smilingly turned to the next group of attackers.

Jiang Wei had been looking forward to the experts from the Eternal Shadow Palace surrounding him. Not because he wished to fight them, but to see whether or not Bai Rouyun would be capable of stopping them from attacking.

However, he now noticed that she did not even need to express her stand in words, the hidden experts had already noticed her calm expression and had determined that they should remain hidden for now.

He wanted to clap his hands in approval, but the moment he did, the expert closest to him turned into a mist of blood. Not even the flesh remained, and he could not help but smile sheepishly.

"It seems that I forgot to control my strength."

The words and expression were clearly showing a sense of youthful embarrassment, but the action had caused fear to fill the hearts of those present.

Even Bai Rouyun’s lips could not help but twitch slightly as she tried to keep a straight expression and not smile. This was what happened when he forgot to control his strength? It seemed that he was more of a walking timebomb than she had initially expected.

Even so, she did not feel fear, but instead she thought it was somewhat interesting. Her interest was not aimed towards Jiang Wei himself, but towards what could have caused him to come to this world.

After seeing his display of strength, she had no doubt that he had come down from the Wushi Continent, as the only person who could come close to his domineering strength was Bai Mulan.

Even so, she felt that even Bai Mulan would not be able to defeat this youngster.

Bai Mulan’s purpose on this continent was to locate her, but she had never heard of others descending to a lower continent for treasures, and considering the pitiful resources found here when compared to the upper realms, she really could not know what it could be that made him come here.

She did not think that it might be the Primal Chaos Pagoda at all, as he should have guessed that this treasure was in her hands, so what could it be?

The reason she assumed that he already knew was due to his strength. When even Bai Mulan was able to guess her original identity, this man should be able to as well - especially now that Bai Mulan had been in contact with her.

The body that had turned into a bloody mist was picked up by a breeze, and the drops of blood dropped onto the faces of the surrounding experts. Their faces were frozen in place, and the fear within their eyes was truly vivid.

Everyone understood that the chances for survival were near zero, and they dared not not even flee. With his ability to kill them with a mere clap of his hands, they would die before they even managed to turn around. Their only hope of survival was that he would be generous and let them go.

"Hurry up."

Unfortunately, their hope died quickly as Bai Rouyun’s words cut off all their expectations.

"Yes, Milady!"

Jiang Wei was clearly too strong to be controlled by Bai Rouyun, and he was also not her servant, but he still showed a certain degree of obedience as he grinned and clasped his hands towards the carriage.

"You heard my orders."

Jiang Wei’s gentle and polite smile suddenly turned bloodthirsty, causing a contrasting emotion to spring into everyone’s mind. This was clearly a bloodthirsty gentleman, a man who could smile and be polite at the same time as he would slit your throat and apologize to your corpse.

Such a smiling killer was even more horrifying than a coldblooded murderer, as you did not know if he would stab you in the back.

Even someone like Bai Rouyun understood that keeping this man by his side was a double edged sword, but she did not, currently, feel any hostility from his side, so she felt that it was worth the risk.

What ensued was a massacre. Every mercenary and bandit that had gathered around them was executed in the most rapid method he could think of, and such a haste caused the scene to be exceptionally bloody and gory.

Some of the experts were crushed and turned into minced meat, while others became a bloody mist. Some were luckier and could keep the majority of their bodies, others however would have their limbs severed and their intestines would be ripped out.

Bai Rouyun was not easily disgusted, but although she was rather strong, she still lowered the curtain so she did not have to witness his masterpiece.

Their travel companions were not that lucky, and the Gu siblings ended up vomiting, unable to hold back their discomfort.
