Easy Way of Cultivation: Power Harvesting
Chapter 412 - 216: Jiaolong Sunset Bow, Qingzhou City Falls, Long Jianying in Crisis
Tongzhou City suddenly became lively!
Previously, the large army of the Demon Suppression Bureau set off, which had already sparked speculation among the people.
Tens of thousands of troops were mobilized simultaneously. Only when the Divine Sword Sect was pacified and during the Black Lake Demon Race’s uprisings did it require such a massive deployment.
As the army returned to the city, countless citizens flocked to the streets, and began to see the large demon fiend corpses being dragged by carriages.
"Did the Demon Suppression Bureau wipe out the Black Lake Demon Race? How are there so many demon fiend corpses!"
Someone was shocked.
Before their eyes, there were over a hundred corpses of Nascent Soul Level demon fiends stretching over several miles, escorted into the city by Celestial Martial Artists.
"Oh no, the Flood Dragons from Black Lake are attacking!" someone suddenly shouted.
In the sky, several gigantic Flood Dragons were seen flying over, casting a shadow that obscured the heavens.
"Don’t be afraid, those Flood Dragons are already dead; they were transported back by the Demon Suppression Bureau Commander!"
Upon hearing this, the residents of Tongzhou City took a closer look and found that in front of each Flood Dragon was a commander clad in profound gold fish scale armor, holding the giant corpse of the Flood Dragon.
With so many demon fiend and Flood Dragon corpses brought back, Tongzhou City instantly boiled over, and countless people spread the word. Soon, the roads leading to the Demon Suppression Bureau were packed with curious citizens and martial artists from Jianghu.
"It’s been so long since such a magnificent victory!"
Pei Shinan sat on a demon horse with a look of satisfaction on his face. It had been a long time since he had experienced a scene where the entire city came out to welcome them.
After years of confrontation with the Black Lake Demon Race, being wiped out, he felt a sense of relief.
Wei Fan was puzzled, "You’ve had such victorious battles before?"
"..."
Pei Shinan’s smile froze on his face.
Alright, he admitted it wasn’t that they hadn’t won such spectacular battles in a long time; they had simply never won such a spectacular battle.
In past confrontations with the Black Lake Demon Race, even being evenly matched counted as a victory.
"General Pei, has the Black Lake Demon Race been annihilated?"
As Pei Shinan appeared, some citizens loudly questioned, though large numbers of demon fiend corpses were brought into the city, they were still clueless about what exactly happened.
Pei Shinan cleared his throat and immediately declared in a loud voice, "I, Pei Shinan, in the name of General of Tongzhou, announce that the Black Lake Demon Race has been erased from the world!"
His voice was like a great bell, supported by True Essence, spreading across Tongzhou City.
Rumble!
As soon as these words were spoken, Tongzhou City erupted in overwhelming cheers, with everyone’s faces filled with joy.
After announcing the news, Pei Shinan glanced at Wei Fan and said, "Quick, bring out the Jiao Venerable’s corpse!"
All the Flood Dragon corpses were present, but the corpse of the Jiao Venerable had been kept by Wei Fan.
"Alright!"
Wei Fan flipped his wrist, revealing the over one-zhang-long golden body of the Black Lake Jiao Venerable in his hand.
"The corpse of the Black Lake Jiao Venerable!"
"Who is that young man holding the corpse of the Black Lake Jiao Venerable? I’ve never seen him before, and it doesn’t look like he’s a Commander of the Demon Suppression Bureau!"
"He seems somewhat familiar!"
"I remember this young man; it was he who exposed the true identity of Celestial Fragrance Building’s top courtesan Xiangxiang as a Fox Demon, and he who slew Xiangxiang."
"Isn’t he Wei Fan then?"
"But wasn’t Wei Fan supposedly ferocious and cruel, how could he be such a handsome young man?"
"Do you have a death wish? He is indeed Wei Fan!"
...
Wei Fan, holding the golden Flood Dragon with one hand, instantly became the focus of everyone’s attention.
The Black Lake Jiao Venerable in his hand, although only over a zhang long, was far less massive than the Spirit Concentration Demon Monarch’s hundreds of zhang body, but its emitted savage power was even more terrifying. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞
"Brother Wei!"
Someone in the crowd waved to Wei Fan, looking extremely excited.
Wei Fan glanced over and noticed it was Yan Yun.
With Yan Yun, although they had only met once at the Nanshan Grand Assembly, due to fighting against the Blood Cloud Sect’s experts together, they could be considered comrades in arms if not friends.
"Brother Yan, long time no see!"
With his will power supporting the corpse of the Black Lake Jiao Venerable, Wei Fan freed his hands on horseback to cup his fists toward Yan Yun.
In an instant, Yan Yun was flattered, not expecting Wei Fan to still recognize him. He hurriedly cupped his fists and said, "Indeed, long time no see. I didn’t expect that in just a few short months, Brother Wei, you have become renowned throughout the world, making waves, while I remain the same!"
He felt somewhat ashamed of himself.
When Wei Fan began to gain some fame in Jianghu, both he and Duan Xingyun and Lv Chunyang were already renowned as the top talents of Tongzhou, and some even thought Wei Fan might be inferior to him.
Yet, in the blink of an eye, everything felt like yesterday. He remained a Celestial Martial Artist, while Wei Fan had already ascended to become a lofty Martial Venerable Powerhouse.
"Let’s meet again sometime!"
Wei Fan rode away on horseback, as he had to display the Black Lake Jiao Venerable’s corpse, so naturally, he couldn’t dismount to meet with Hei Yan Yun.
"You actually know Wei Fan!"
After Wei Fan left, Yan Yun immediately became the focus of those around him.
This was quite something. He not only knew Wei Fan, but Wei Fan also addressed him as a brother, which in the eyes of many was an extraordinary thing.
Yan Yun glanced at Lv Chunyang beside him, full of pride, "Of course I know him. Last time I invited you to the Nanshan Grand Assembly, you didn’t go. It was there that I met Brother Wei, and we fought side by side."
Lv Chunyang felt a bit regretful, "Had I known, I would have gone too. Who knew such a grand Jianghu event would produce such a prodigy.
With the identity of being friends with Wei Fan in the future, there won’t be many who dare to cross you in Jianghu!"
...
Wei Fan entered the Demon Suppression Bureau with Pei Shinan and others, and Yue Chengwu, Situ Feng, and others also came to meet with him and chat about matters in Su City.
