Soul Emperor Martial God-Chapter 1571: Sweeping Through

One month later.

Eastern area of the Central Region, Hengyuan Territory.

In the central city, Hengyuan City.

Xiao Yi hurried into the Demon Hunting Hall’s Hengyuan Main Hall, about to go to the Task Department to submit a task, but saw the Task Department filled with Demon Hunters.

Upon seeing this, Xiao Yi had to wait slightly.

At this time, a staff member in the Task Department suddenly squinted at Xiao Yi’s side.

The staff member seemed to have thought of something, his expression changed, and he quickly walked over, ignoring the Demon Hunters waiting in a long line to submit tasks.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

A few Demon Hunters at the forefront of the Task Department said discontentedly.

The staff member ignored this and quickly walked toward Xiao Yi.

"May I ask, are you Yi Xiao Branch Hall Master?" The staff member asked solemnly as he arrived in front of Xiao Yi.

"What’s the matter?" Xiao Yi frowned and asked.

"It’s really Yi Xiao Branch Hall Master?" The staff member’s face showed joy and quickly bowed.

Xiao Yi waved his hand, indicating there was no need for such formality.

The surrounding Demon Hunters heard this, their faces showed surprise, "Purple Flame Yi Xiao?"

In an instant, the eyes of all the surrounding Demon Hunters focused on him.

Hengyuan Territory is an extremely vast area, with an enormous number of Demon Hunters.

The Demon Hunters gathered at the Hengyuan Main Hall are also densely packed, almost filling the Main Hall completely.

But at this moment, every Demon Hunter automatically stepped back, creating a path.

"Is Yi Xiao Branch Hall Master here to submit a task at the Main Hall? Please go ahead."

"Indeed, indeed, Yi Xiao Branch Hall Master, please go first."

"..."

The previously crowded Main Hall instantly had a passage.

The Demon Hunters who were queued up at the Task Department all took a step back.

Their gaze towards Xiao Yi was not filled with discontent, but rather filled with admiration and joy.

"This..." Xiao Yi seeing this, was slightly stunned.

In the crowd, a Demon Hunter frowned and said, "Who is this person? Such a big show of power."

"Making us Demon Hunters give way for him? Even if he holds the title of Branch Hall Master so what..."

This Demon Hunter hadn’t finished speaking, already feeling many unfriendly gazes around him.

Feeling the unfriendly stares, this Demon Hunter shivered, and quickly stopped talking.

Beside him, a familiar Demon Hunter whispered, "Stupid, who told you to speak unnecessarily?"

"Is Yi Xiao Branch Hall Master someone you dare to mock?"

"What, is this person very influential?" This Demon Hunter was shocked, "What kind of backing does he have?"

The familiar Demon Hunter chuckled, "Not very influential, no backing either."

"But Yi Xiao Branch Hall Master is now a big personality in our Demon Hunting Hall, admired by Demon Hunters everywhere."

"What, you didn’t know?"

The Demon Hunter shook his head, "I’ve been secluded in training for the past few days."

"Tsk tsk." The familiar Demon Hunter chuckled, "Then you’ve missed quite a lot these days."

"Do you know what Yi Xiao Branch Hall Master is now called?"

Without waiting for the Demon Hunter to ask, the familiar Demon Hunter already excitedly said, "The Nightmare of Evil Cultivators."

"Do you also know how many Evil Cultivators Yi Xiao Branch Hall Master has killed these days?"

This time, not waiting for the familiar Demon Hunter to speak, other surrounding Demon Hunters already chimed in.

"That’s countless."

"..."

Excited words came forth one after another.

The Demon Hunter who spoke first stared blankly, with a face full of surprise.

Since when did the Evil Cultivators, who stirred fear upon mention, become spoken of so casually, even lightly?

Since when did the terrifying Evil Cultivators seem to be unusually miserable?

He realized he had indeed missed many things during his secluded training days.

The surrounding excited words continued endlessly.

"At first when Yi Xiao Branch Hall Master took action, he set the record for destroying four Evil Cultivation Branches in two days."

"Although things calmed down afterward for ten days half a month, that was merely the prelude to the Evil Cultivator’s nightmare."

"I know this." A Demon Hunter excitedly jumped in.

"Afterward, Yi Xiao Branch Hall Master swept through like a tempest."

"Everywhere he passed, Evil Cultivation Branches were destroyed, Evil Cultivators were slaughtered."

"It’s said Evil Cultivators’ whereabouts are secretive, yet Yi Xiao Branch Hall Master is even more elusive; they didn’t even know how they died."

"It’s said Evil Cultivators have unpredictable methods, hide in dangerous places, yet they couldn’t withstand Yi Xiao Branch Hall Master’s overwhelming Purple Flame."

"The flames burned for a thousand miles, not a single Evil Cultivator could escape."

"In just one month, nearly a hundred territories have been swept clean, all Evil Cultivators in each territory eradicated."

"..."

"Hiss." The Demon Hunter who spoke first now gasped.

"In just one month, sweeping clean nearly a hundred territories of Evil Cultivators?"

Listening to the never-ending words around him, Xiao Yi felt slightly embarrassed.

He wasn’t one to enjoy the limelight, so he intended to go straight to the Task Department, submit the task, and leave.

Indeed, in this one month, he swept clean nearly a hundred territories.

With his current strength, crossing a territory could be completed in just a few hours.

Especially after discovering the other heaven-defying effects of the Taiyin and Taiyang Eyes, sensing territories with the power of Heaven and Earth, those Evil Cultivators had nowhere to hide.

Naturally, it was easy for him to find these Evil Cultivators.

In one fell swoop, all Evil Cultivation Branches and all Evil Cultivators within territories were slaughtered by him.

He knows that the Evil Lord Mansion is a colossal entity.

With his strength alone, it was indeed difficult to shake them.

But killing whoever he sees, until these Evil Cultivators dare not act recklessly, not dare to show up casually, it temporarily aligns with his intent.

These days, he has been traveling eastward.

And now, he arrives at Hengyuan Territory.

Hengyuan Territory isn’t quite renowned in the Central Region but is considered among the first-class territories.

Its territory is exceedingly vast, nearly comparable to the Four-direction Domain.

Sitting in the center of the eastern area of the Central Region, Hengyuan Territory is also a notable location.

He specifically came to the Main Hall here to submit tasks.

Among the Evil Cultivators are many listed on the wanted list of the Eight Palaces.

The Demon Hunting Hall, Flame Hall, and Medicine Venerate Hall are part of the Alliance Hall.

Here in this submission, he can directly claim the task points and rewards from the Three Halls altogether.

After picking up the task, he can leave and continue chasing after Evil Cultivators.

At this moment, Xiao Yi walked towards the Task Department.

Just then, a staff member quickly approached and said, "Yi Xiao Branch Hall Master, the Hall Master requests your presence."

"Hall Master?" Xiao Yi frowned.

The Hall Master is naturally the person in charge of this Main Hall.

Although he didn’t know the reason, Xiao Yi still followed this staff member to the rear chamber inside the hall.

On the way, the staff member showed a look of reverence and a worshipful expression.

"Yi Xiao Branch Hall Master’s reputation is widespread. I didn’t expect to actually see you today."

"Did you know I was coming?" Xiao Yi asked a bit confusedly.

"Yes." The staff member replied, "The Hall Master said, according to your style, after completing a large number of tasks, you usually go to the Main Hall of the nearby territory to submit the tasks."

"Our Hengyuan Territory is the largest territory nearby."

"So the Hall Master guessed you would come here and had us note down your portrait, enabling us to recognize you promptly."
