419: Beheaded Tietie Xianmuer, issued a wanted order, mobilized 100,000 troops, and quelled the disaster

The Ghost Realm, one of the three Demon Holy Lands.

This force belongs to the Soul-type Demons, capable of traversing Yin and Yang, skilled in sneak attacks, and possessing powerful Soul attack methods.

"This General doesn't understand what you're saying. Slandering a Great General of the Imperial Court is a capital offense!"

Tie Tie Xianmuer's pupils constricted slightly, then became exceptionally cold.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Several trusted Generals, with grim expressions, flew out of the military camp and angrily shouted, "How dare you! Release General Tie Tie immediately!"

"Scram!"

Chu Jiang waved his large hand, and several Heaven and Earth Realm Generals vomited blood and fell.

"Don't understand? Then this official will help you recall!"

Chu Jiang sneered, forcibly using Soul-Snatching Art, and his vast Soul began to tear at Tie Tie Xianmuer.

"Ah—"

Tie Tie Xianmuer let out a tragic scream, his face ferocious, his hair disheveled.

World Cleansing Divine Light burst forth.

Hiss…

Puffs of black smoke emerged from Tie Tie Xianmuer's body.

Crack!

A bloody black monster drilled out from Tie Tie Xianmuer's body and quickly fled.

"This, how could this be…"

"General Tie Tie, is he a Demon?"

The other Lanzhou Army Generals were greatly alarmed, feeling as if the sky had fallen.

They had actually been led by a Demon, exhausting decades of the Divine Energy Cannon's reserves—it was an absolute travesty!

"Chu Jiang, just you wait, This King will return!"

The Celestial Ghost King's Clone said darkly, directly escaping into the Void Realm.

Whoosh!

A Soul sword, piercing through the Void Realm.

Startling God Stab!

Om!

The Celestial Ghost King's Clone fell.

Chu Jiang grabbed him in his hand, clenching his Demon-Suppressing Divine Fist tightly.

Pfft!

The Celestial Ghost King's Clone let out an extremely tragic scream, his head shattered, his brains splattered, and a large amount of Soul and Yin Qi flew out, which were then obliterated.

[Ghost Realm, Celestial Ghost King's Clone, Qiankun Tenth Level, gained ten thousand years of Lifespan]

"These Demons from the Ghost Realm actually don't have a Physical Body; their Physical Body is condensed from Soul and Yin Qi and other special materials."

Chu Jiang murmured.

It seems that the Ghost Realm's Demons have invaded more than just one army in Lan Prefecture. If the Ghost Realm's Demons secretly control the Great Chu's military System, the consequences would be severe.

Exhausting Great Chu's reserves, and then launching a full-scale invasion?

He always felt that the Ghost Realm was creating preconditions for some large-scale operation.

"Could it be… the Demon Ancient Road is about to open?"

But according to the latest intelligence, it should still be another year or two. From what he knew of the Great Chu Dynasty, the power it currently displayed was insufficient to contend with Demon Kings.

"Tie Tie Xianmuer, dead?"

The Lan Prefecture powerhouses watching from afar felt a chill down their spines. Chu Jiang's combat power was simply astonishing, estimated to be a super existence ranked among the top thirty on the Heaven Ranking.

Even with countless killing formations, the Myriad Waters Formation, and powerful weapons like the Divine Energy Cannon, they still couldn't do anything to Chu Jiang.

In the entire Three Prefectures, the only one who could truly suppress him was probably Wu Ling King.

"One person, intimidating two hundred thousand Lanzhou Army, moving through countless killing formations as if on flat ground…" A young Prodigy felt like he was dreaming; it was simply unimaginable. Chu Jiang's growth story was a legend.

"Today's Chu Jiang has completely risen, becoming a super powerhouse of Great Chu. No one in the Three Prefectures can kill him anymore!"

Able to withstand the Divine Energy Cannon and survive a single blow, his battle record was astonishing.

This was not something an ordinary person could achieve.

"This Tie Tie Xianmuer was actually a Demon. No wonder he was so eager to kill Chu Jiang, even at the cost of using the Divine Energy Cannon!"

Someone suddenly realized.

If he was a Demon, everything made sense. Chu Jiang's talent was extraordinary, and Demons would certainly try to kill him at all costs.

Secondly, prematurely depleting the Divine Energy Cannon's reserves was also beneficial to the Demon side, with no harm.

…

Lanzhou Army, Central Army Camp.

Chu Jiang shattered Wu Chunqiu's energy body with a slap, frowning: "This old fellow probably ran off long ago, no wonder he didn't show up. He's quite cautious."

Tie Tie Xianmuer was possessed by a Ghost Realm Demon and refined into a Celestial Ghost King's Clone. Wu Chunqiu, that old stick, definitely knew about it.

Half an hour later.

All high-ranking this officials of the Lanzhou Army, including Lanzhou Pacification Envoy Guo Kai and others, gathered in the commander's tent.

"Lanzhou Prefect, Lanzhou Army Marshal, Wu Chunqiu, colluded with Demons, caused chaos in the military camp, ignored the locust plague, and is guilty of ten unforgivable crimes. Now I order: Wu Chunqiu's positions as Lanzhou Prefect and Lanzhou Army Marshal are hereby revoked. A wanted order is issued with a heavy reward. Anyone who dares to harbor him will be treated as a traitor and executed without mercy!"

Chu Jiang, seated in the central commander's seat, looked at the crowd and said coldly.

"We obey Inspector's order!"

Li Jing and others from the Lanzhou Army stepped forward and cupped their hands.

"Lanzhou Pacification Envoy Guo Kai, you neglected your duties. Your position as Pacification Envoy is hereby revoked, but you will remain in an acting capacity. Do you have any objections?"

As he spoke.

His gaze fell upon Guo Kai.

"This this official will accept Adult's punishment without complaint!"

Guo Kai's heart chilled. Was this a joke? How could he have any objections? The Lanzhou Prefect was dismissed just like that, and a wanted order issued just like that.

If he dared to say no, his time as Pacification Envoy would be over.

"This this official has already dispatched three thousand Demon Suppression Guards in advance to the three counties of Lan Prefecture to suppress the locust plague. If Adult has any tasks, This this official will not shirk them!"

He now understood that anyone who opposed Chu Jiang would only find death, no other path. If he continued to waver between the Old Prince and Chu Jiang, offending neither and playing both sides, he would surely die a miserable death.

Chu Jiang didn't completely dismiss him but instead made him acting, which was giving him an opportunity. If he couldn't grasp it, this position would have to be given to someone else.

Chu Jiang nodded indifferently. He didn't care whether Guo Kai had actually dispatched three thousand Demon Suppression Guards to disaster relief in advance, as long as the Lanzhou Demon Suppression Division stood on his side and cooperated with his actions.

If he wasn't sensible, there were plenty of people who wanted to be the Pacification Envoy of this Prefecture.

"Li Jing, the Lanzhou Army cannot be without a master. You are loyal to the monarch and the country, unafraid of power, and this official is very pleased. From today onwards, you will temporarily manage the position of Lanzhou Marshal. The Lanzhou Army camp will dispatch one hundred thousand Lanzhou soldiers to eliminate the locust plague in the three counties!"

Chu Jiang said.

The Lanzhou Army camp had a large number of killing weapons that could lure locusts and kill them in batches, allowing the locust plague in the three counties to be quickly resolved.

"This subordinate accepts the order, and will certainly not fail Adult's kindness in promoting me!"

Li Jing said excitedly. He hadn't expected Chu Jiang to promote him to Lanzhou Marshal. Although it was only a temporary management position, it was a big step in his career.

He could clear out the dirty and corrupt elements in the Lanzhou Army camp, allowing the Lanzhou Army to return to its normal state. The army should not be corrupted.

The meeting was brief, and everyone quickly dispersed.

After the defensive line was repaired.

One hundred thousand Lanzhou soldiers rose from the military camp, carrying various killing weapons, and flew in batches to the three affected counties.

Three thousand Demon Suppression Guards also rushed from the Lanzhou Demon Suppression Division.

At the same time, news of Chu Jiang's decisive victory over the two hundred thousand Lanzhou Army and the killing of Lanzhou Army Deputy General Tie Tie Xianmuer spread throughout the Three Prefectures, and even the entire Eastern Ten States.

There was also a wanted order for the former Lanzhou Prefect Wu Chunqiu, which originated from Lan Prefecture and quickly spread to various Great Prefectures.

With the support of one hundred thousand Lanzhou soldiers, several thousand Tiger Brave Army, and several thousand Demon Suppression Guards, in just a few days, not only the locust plague in the three counties but also various other disasters were quickly pacified.

As a result, two of the Three Prefectures had been largely pacified.

And this.

Only about half a month had passed since Chu Jiang came from the Imperial Capital to the Three Prefectures, accomplishing what the previous five Special Envoys to the Three Prefectures had failed to do.

People were amazed by his swift and decisive actions.

From Yue Province, he fought his way to Lan Prefecture, and no one could stop him.

The chaos in the Three Prefectures, which had dragged on for over a decade, was about to see the dawn of victory. Not only were the people of the Three Prefectures paying attention, but the powerful figures in other Great Prefectures were also watching everything here.

But, would that person from Wu Prefecture just give up?

Wu Prefecture was the truly tough nut to crack. Whether in terms of strength or influence, it far surpassed the other two Prefectures; otherwise, it wouldn't be named 'Wu' (Martial).
