A transparent barrier appeared around Tianmiao, blocking all the black, foul-smelling blood and severed limbs outside.
The others weren’t so lucky.
Almost everyone was splattered head to toe, the stench immediately overwhelming.
Master Wuxin also set up a barrier at that moment, but it was a step too late, and some foul black blood splattered onto his clothes.
The Manor Master was the most miserable; he happened to have his mouth open at that time, and so...
As a result, he was there dry heaving.
After gagging, he asked Tianmiao between breaths, "Senior, Senior, is it really okay to just kill this Great Demon like that?"
"Otherwise? It’s better to directly resolve the root issue," Tianmiao said leisurely, "Then we just deal with the one working for him."
"But, Senior, you killed him without asking anything," the Manor Master weakly queried.
"I have a lead," Tianmiao turned to look at the disheveled crowd, "If any of your friends have been forced to transform into Demon Cultivators, you can bring them to Sky City; Sky City has a way to cure them. Notify your friends as quickly as possible, take this matter seriously, and be cautious."
After Tianmiao said this, the Housekeeper spoke in shock, "Senior, you are from Sky City."
"Yes. I have other matters to attend to, so I’ll take my leave. Everyone, please be careful." Tianmiao turned and walked away.
Master Wuxin followed Tianmiao, ascending the steps. Some wanted to call out to Tianmiao, but seeing all the black blood, no one dared to speak.
The Great Tributor of the manor and the Loose Cultivator who wanted to stand out were shivering as they looked at the black blood and remains all over the ground. Clearly, Tianmiao had been very lenient with them, or else they would have been crushed by now.
"Second Uncle, who do you think this senior is? There are four Elders in Sky City, and both City Lords are still in seclusion. Who is she then?" The Manor Master quietly asked the Housekeeper.
After the Manor Master asked this, silence fell, as everyone wanted to know the answer.
"I think she must be the young lady of Sky City," the Housekeeper said seriously.
"But, we have seen the portrait of the young lady of Sky City. She doesn’t look like this." The Manor Master immediately objected.
"Why couldn’t she have transformed her appearance? Given what she just said and her abilities, I really can’t think of anyone else but her," the Housekeeper frowned.
The crowd pondered and immediately felt the Housekeeper’s words made perfect sense.
They began discussing animatedly, many in an excited tone. Who would have expected them to get so close to the young lady of Sky City, and witness her shocking scene of tearing apart the Great Demon.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please hear me out," the Housekeeper called out to the crowd.
Everyone quieted down, looking at the Housekeeper.
"Judging by this situation, it must be the young lady of Sky City investigating the Demon Cultivators, and she discovered us here. Since she transformed her appearance, it must be a private investigation, we absolutely must not expose her identity. Remember this!" The Housekeeper seriously instructed everyone.
Many displayed expressions of deep agreement.
The Loose Cultivator who had previously questioned Tianmiao was extremely excited and happy within. Sky City can heal, his dear friend is saved. Moreover, everything can be explained clearly; his friend absolutely was not a Demon Cultivator, but was victimized. Back then, he had fled with his friend to escape persecution from the Righteous Cultivators, and now the injustice was finally redressed!
