"Let Uncle Qiao go!" Suddenly, a young male voice filled with anger rang out. This voice caught the attention of the governor and his men. They all turned their heads to look toward the source of the voice and saw a young man with an indignant expression on his face. This young man was Rulu.

"Was that you speaking just now, boy?" The governor looked Rulu up and down carefully. When he discovered that Rulu was just a thin seventeen or eighteen-year-old youth, he couldn't help but feel quite surprised. He had been serving as governor for so long, yet he had never seen anyone dare to speak to him like this, let alone such a young, thin youth.

"Are you deaf, or is your brain not working properly?!" Rulu said with a gloomy face, speaking again. "I'll say it one more time: let Uncle Qiao go quickly, you bunch of dog scum!" His voice was not only filled with anger but also mixed with a strong sense of hatred.

A ferocious smile appeared on the governor's face as he glared at Rulu and said, "What's your name, you little brat? You've got quite the nerve, daring to speak to me like this. Do you want to die?"

"You're not qualified to ask me questions." Rulu raised his face and looked down at the governor disdainfully. The governor noticed that in Rulu's gaze toward him, there was not only hatred and anger but also a deep sense of contempt. For some reason, being looked at by Rulu with such eyes made the governor's heart tremble, and he actually felt a sense of fear.

"Foolish little brat who doesn't know life from death." The governor was somewhat provoked by Rulu. He turned his head and shouted loudly at his subordinates, "What are you standing there for? Hurry up and teach this brat a lesson! I want that mouth of his to never speak again."

Apart from the two men holding Mayor Qiao, the other three burly men walked quickly toward Rulu. They rubbed their fists together, looking at Rulu as if they wanted to eat him alive. It seemed that today they wouldn't give up until they killed Rulu.

"Run away quickly, Rulu!" Nana realized that Rulu had gotten into serious trouble. She grabbed Rulu's hand and tried to pull him back, but Rulu shook off Nana's hand and said with a gloomy face, "No, they're the ones who should run—"

As soon as his words fell, a violent whirlwind appeared out of nowhere, surrounding Rulu, Nana, and Mrs. Qiao. The howling whirlwind scraped against the three burly men, making them unable to stand steady, and threw them outward. With several thuds, these three burly men fell to the ground in a very disheveled manner and didn't get up for a long time.

This scene was completely beyond the governor's expectations. The governor looked at Rulu with shock and suspicion and said, "How can this be? Where did this wind come from? Could it be... this wind was summoned by you? Are you an Ultra-capable?"

"For someone who looks like a pig, you do have some brains." A mocking smile appeared on Rulu's face. He stared at the governor and said slowly, "If you're smart, hurry up and release Uncle Qiao, then leave here. Otherwise, I will definitely make you pay a heavy price!"

"Don't be too arrogant, you brat!" The governor shouted loudly and quickly pulled out a pistol from his body, aiming the gun at Rulu's direction, wanting to shoot at him. But just then, there was a loud "bang," and the pistol in the governor's hand exploded violently and shattered automatically.

The governor let out a scream, stepped back several paces, and clutched his bloodied hand with a pained expression. He looked at Rulu in panic and said, "Where did you come from, boy? Ordinary people don't have such strong Psionic power. Could it be that you... you're from Sanctuary?"

"From Sanctuary?" Rulu's face showed a disdainful smile as he said in a low voice, "No, I'm not from Sanctuary. I'm someone who will destroy Sanctuary."

"Destroy Sanctuary?!" The governor was stunned, then burst into laughter and said loudly, "Are you insane, boy? You actually want to destroy Sanctuary? Don't you know that Sanctuary is immortal? Even if the world is destroyed, Sanctuary will not be destroyed, because Sanctuary is the world of gods. Those living in Sanctuary are all gods, and His Majesty the Emperor of Sanctuary is the sole master of this world. Only His Majesty the Emperor can grant us supreme happiness and bestow upon us eternal and undying life!"

When the governor said this, his face showed deep reverence. Influenced by him, the other five burly men also shouted out, "Long live Sanctuary! Long live His Majesty the Emperor!"

"Do you people even deserve to obtain happiness and eternal life?" Rulu said with a disgusted expression. As he spoke, he took out a watermelon-sized canteen from his backpack and opened the lid.

"In my view, you're just a group of filthy maggots. You should be tormented for all eternity and die in endless pain and despair. That's what you deserve!"

"I'm going to kill you!" One burly man was enraged by Rulu's words. He shouted and pulled out a pistol from his body, about to shoot at Rulu.

Rulu showed no fear. He swung his arm and threw out the water from the canteen. At this moment, something strange happened. The water spilling from the canteen didn't fall to the ground but instead floated in the air, gathering together at an extremely fast speed and forming a one-meter-long, crystal-clear ice sword.

With a sharp "whoosh" through the air, the ice sword flew rapidly toward the burly man who wanted to shoot Rulu, slashing across the man's neck and cutting a long gash in his throat. Blood gurgled out from the burly man's neck. The burly man screamed, clutched his neck with both hands, and fell to the ground. After struggling a few times, he stopped moving.
