I Can Transfer the Side Effects of Evil Skills-Chapter 256 - 186: Demon Slaying Order (Part 2)

Zou Feng had just finished preparing when Kang Shixiang, wreathed in flames, lunged toward him.

His Profound Gang Karmic Fire was incomparably domineering.

Even from a hundred feet away, the heat wave it generated instantly scorched the grass beneath Zou Feng’s feet.

As for the Poison Domain Zou Feng had set up, it did almost nothing to stop him.

There was nothing to be done. Not only was Kang Shixiang stronger, but his Profound Gang Karmic Fire also happened to be the perfect counter to poisonous mists and gases.

When the poison gas met the Profound Gang Karmic Fire, it was instantly incinerated, rendering it completely ineffective.

In an instant, two dazzlingly bright fireballs formed in Kang Shixiang’s hands.

He then brought his hands together above his head, and the two small fireballs rapidly merged, forming a massive one the size of a water vat in the blink of an eye.

"Die—"

Genuinely enraged, Kang Shixiang immediately unleashed his Big Move, Karma Fire Purification, vowing to burn the two of them until not even ash remained.

"Now!"

As Zou Feng shouted, he once again slapped Bian Yixia hard on the back.

At that moment, Bian Yixia’s Gathering Strength had reached its peak, filled to the brim with Zou Feng’s Gang Qi.

Her stomach, which normally had not an ounce of fat, visibly swelled up as if she had drunk from the rivers of the Women’s Country.

Looking up at Kang Shixiang and the massive fireball he was about to release...

Bian Yixia took one last deep breath, then suddenly opened her mouth and let out a great roar, "AHH—"

A shockwave, compressed to its absolute limit, was "roared" out by Bian Yixia.

This shockwave fused Zou Feng’s Gang Qi, Bian Yixia’s own Gang Qi, and the Qi Force produced by the imminent Burst of the Restriction.

With all these enhancements, the power of this attack was almost equivalent to a strike from a True Qi Realm powerhouse.

Kang Shixiang had never imagined that the Restriction he had placed on Bian Yixia could actually be forced out in such a manner.

Forcing it out was one thing, but to turn it into an offensive technique and send it right back at him... that was deadly.

Kang Shixiang had no time to think. Fortunately, he also had a Big Move ready and could only try to counter this high-frequency shockwave with his Karma Fire Purification.

"Go!"

Amidst the massive explosion, Zou Feng seized the opportunity to grab Bian Yixia, turn, and run.

The attack was powerful, but Kang Shixiang was clearly a Fourth Grade expert, even stronger than Yuwen Boxi.

It was unrealistic to expect to take him down with a single move.

If Kang Shixiang wasn’t seriously injured, and other helpers arrived one after another, the situation would become even more unfavorable.

Besides, Zou Feng had already fought a grueling battle with Yuwen Boxi and then used a large amount of Gang Qi to perform the Combined Skill with Bian Yixia. His own consumption was considerable.

However, after running a few steps, Bian Yixia staggered and nearly fell.

That last roar had forced out the Restriction, but it also felt like she had screamed out all the Gang Qi she had just recovered.

She was now completely drained and simply couldn’t run anymore.

Seeing this, Zou Feng, though quite exhausted himself, could only grit his teeth, hoist her onto his shoulder, and continue to flee.

As he fled, Zou Feng didn’t forget to check the List of Gods.

On the List of Gods, a name that had been blindingly bright was now noticeably dimmer.

This immediately told Zou Feng that the old man who had just attacked was named Kang Shixiang.

And that the Combined Skill he and Bian Yixia used had indeed inflicted some significant injuries on him.

However, he didn’t know much about the Xuanhuang Sect, so he was unaware that this man was an Elder of the Xuanhuang Sect’s Law Enforcement Hall.

’But such a powerful enemy will clearly have to be my main training target for the foreseeable future.’

Although he had successfully rescued the members of the Hongxing Gang and now even brought Bian Yixia back safely, which brought a small sigh of relief, the subsequent troubles gave Zou Feng a considerable headache.

After all, the trouble he would face in the future was likely to be immeasurably huge.

Once the news that he had killed Yuwen Boxi got out, the ones coming to settle the score next time would probably be several Fourth Grade experts working together, or perhaps even a High Grade Martial Artist.

The best way to deal with this trouble was, naturally, to advance to Fourth Grade as quickly as possible.

If he successfully advanced to Fourth Grade, and with his Black Tortoise Sea-Suppressing Force just one step away from the Peak of Perfection...

Then, with four Cultivation Skills at the Peak of Perfection, he would definitely be able to put up a fight even against a Third Grade opponent.

The reason Zou Feng was so worried about a High Grade Martial Artist coming after him was because he had been warned when he brought Yuwen Zheng to the Hongxing Gang’s temporary base on Qifeng Mountain.

He was told that this Quasi-Martial Champion Scholar had only recently become engaged to Princess Zhuque, Gongsun Jinghong.

And Gongsun Jinghong was a Martial Dao genius of the younger generation of the Great Yan Royal Family, a Third Grade Powerhouse.

Even without considering that connection, since he had killed Yuwen Boxi, the Governor of Jiangnan, the Great Yan Dynasty Royal Family would never let him off the hook.

The only silver lining was that these were chaotic times, and there were many loopholes to exploit...

Meanwhile, back at the site of the clash between the Big Move and the Combined Skill.

The thick smoke and dust were only now beginning to Scatter.

Kang Shixiang’s figure reappeared.

He didn’t immediately resume his pursuit of Zou Feng. Instead, he stood rooted to the spot, his face ashen and his body trembling with rage.

Not far away, Yuwen Boxi’s Personal Guards finally arrived.

When they saw the bodies of Yuwen Boxi and Yuwen Zheng, they were all stunned, completely unable to believe their eyes.

They wanted to ask Kang Shixiang, who had arrived first, what on earth had happened here and why the Yuwen Father and Son had died such miserable deaths...

But seeing Kang Shixiang’s "I could eat you alive" glare, how could they dare ask? They could only continue to stare at each other blankly.

After a long moment, Kang Shixiang finally moved.

But it was to violently cough up a mouthful of blood.

Wiping his mouth, Kang Shixiang had already made a decision.

His injuries were not light, so he truly didn’t dare to continue pursuing Zou Feng.

But letting Zou Feng and Bian Yixia go was absolutely out of the question.

He decided to return to the Xuanhuang Sect at once and report this matter to his Sect Leader.

After all, it had been a long time since an Evil Cultivator as arrogant—and with the capital to back it up—as Zou Feng had appeared in the Central Plains Region.

’Given his age, if he’s this terrifyingly powerful now, what will happen if we give him more time?!’

’In any case, this whelp must not be allowed to live. I believe that with my persuasion, the Sect Leader won’t mind issuing a Demon Slaying Order for him.’

Once the Demon Slaying Order was issued, not only would disciples of the Xuanhuang Sect respond, but disciples from all the other major Righteous Sects would also actively join the hunt to kill Zou Feng.

People didn’t respond to the Demon Slaying Order because they all had hearts of gold; it was because whoever completed the task on the order would receive an exceptionally generous reward.

To put it bluntly, the Demon Slaying Order was essentially a wanted poster for Zou Feng with a massive bounty.

Having made his decision, Kang Shixiang tried his best to keep his tone calm as he said, "Zheng’er and Boxi were both killed by Zou Feng, the General Leader of the Hongxing Gang..."

The Personal Guards were instantly filled with righteous indignation, cursing endlessly. Some even knelt before Yuwen Boxi’s corpse, weeping bitterly.

Yet, not a single one of them made a move to go and pursue Zou Feng.

Of course, you couldn’t blame them for being cowards. Yuwen Boxi had been killed. What was the point of them chasing after Zou Feng? To give him a few more heads to take?

Kang Shixiang watched this scene impatiently. Just as he was about to shout at the Personal Guards to take the two bodies back, something unexpected happened.

A few wisps of light, colorful silk gauze suddenly began to flutter before Kang Shixiang’s eyes.

Even with his reaction speed, he couldn’t figure out where the silk had come from. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

"He’s really dead?"

A deeply magnetic female voice suddenly rang out.

Kang Shixiang turned his head and saw a tall, stunningly graceful woman standing at the end of the trail of silk.

The aura she exuded could only be described as one of regal dominance.

Kang Shixiang could still hold his ground, but all the Personal Guards felt an overwhelming urge to bow their heads and worship the woman.

"Commandery... Commandery Princess!?"

The nearest Personal Guard, after a moment of stunned silence, immediately recognized her.

The other Personal Guards quickly came to their senses, fell to their knees, and saluted, "We greet the Commandery Princess!"

Only then did Kang Shixiang realize that Yuwen Zheng’s fiancée, the Great Yan Royal Family’s Princess Zhuque, had arrived.

But at this moment, as Gongsun Jinghong looked down at the miserably dead Yuwen Zheng, there was not a trace of pity in her eyes.

On the contrary, her face was filled with disdain.

"A Martial Champion Scholar, and this is all he amounts to?

"Useless!"

With a sharp flick of her sleeve, Gongsun Jinghong couldn’t be bothered to look any longer. She turned and asked, "Who killed him?"
