62: Big sweep!

With the death of the Elephant Yao Beast entrenched on the border of Yi Province, the demonic threat in Yi Province was officially declared lifted.

As for the remaining minor Yao Beasts in the various counties and villages, they were not worth him making a trip personally.

It was best to leave them to the local Demon Slayer Division.

And the aftermath issues in these commandery cities, Song Ming neither cared nor wanted to care.

His current goal in Great Qian was still only one.

That was to kill Yao Beasts.

Song Ming brought up the map and checked the direction; the closest to Yi Province was Song Province.

For the time to come, it would be just enough for him to clear out the Yao Beasts in Song Province!

“The aftermath will be left to you all; I’m leaving!” Song Ming said to Ma Fengxiang.

The latter was stunned upon hearing this, “Immortal, the threat in Yi Province has been resolved; if possible, please come to Yi Province City for a visit!”

Song Ming shook his head.

“The threat in Yi Province has been resolved, but the people of Song Province, Ping Province, and Gan Province are still suffering greatly; please forgive me for not being able to accompany you!”

Ma Fengxiang immediately felt a little ashamed.

His gaze towards Song Ming was even more filled with admiration.

When talking about Yao Beasts, everyone feared and avoided them.

This Immortal, however, was an exception.

Not only was his strength formidable, but he was also merciless when killing Yao Beasts.

He had lived most of his life and had never seen such a person.

Now it seemed, calling him an Immortal was not an exaggeration!

After saying this, Song Ming disappeared directly from the spot and rushed towards Song Province.

Speaking of which, his choice of this speed-enhancing skill was indeed the right one.

If not for this skill, Song Ming would never have been able to reach his destination so quickly just by riding a horse.

To a certain extent, it saved him a lot of time.

......

Soon, Song Ming arrived in Song Province.

An hour later, all Yao Beasts within the six fallen commanderies of Song Province were eradicated.

Song Ming killed the Rank 46 Great Yao Beast, Red Flame Horned Horse, at the border of Song Province, and conveniently eliminated several of its Yao Generals!

Two hours later, within Ping Province, the Rank 48 Great Yao Beast, Ghost-Faced Evil Spider, which was preparing to invade Ping Province City, unfortunately encountered Song Ming.

Its army of nearly ten thousand Yao Beasts was completely annihilated.

The corpses of Yao Beasts covered every inch of land outside the city!

The General of Ping Province was astonished!

Three hours later, within Gan Province, Song Ming’s Heaven and Earth Seal directly evaporated the fifty-li Dragon Lake, and the Rank 49 Cold Toad Great Yao Beast hidden at the bottom of the lake immediately perished on the spot.

Leaving Gan Province, on the way to Qian Capital, Song Ming encountered a Rank 45 Azure Hill Fox Yao Beast.

Seeing it openly harassing a virtuous woman in broad daylight, he conveniently dealt with it.

His Rank increased to Rank 39!

......

At the main headquarters of the Demon Slayer Division, Zhao Chuan Yuan still sat in the main hall and had not left.

Yan Hong was likewise.

With nothing to do, the two simply played a game of Go.

Qing Province was no longer plagued by Yao Beasts, so he now had a rare long holiday.

He had intended to return to Qing Province to rest after completing his report.

But who knew, Song Ming was going to clear out the Yao Beasts throughout Great Qian.

So, he had no choice but to stay in Qian Capital, waiting for his news.

After all, Song Ming came from his Ten Thousand Treasures Sect of Qing Province and was also a member of his Demon Slayer Division.

As his superior, he could not just leave Song Ming alone and return.

Yan Hong casually dropped a black stone, then grinned at Zhao Chuan Yuan, “Want to make a bet!”

Zhao Chuan Yuan frowned, looking at Yan Hong’s disorganized stones.

“What bet?”

“Let’s bet on how many days it will take the Little Immortal to clear out the Yao Beast menace within Great Qian!”

“Heh, interesting, it seems you are very confident in him!”

As Zhao Chuan Yuan placed a white stone, a large Dragon subtly formed on the board!

If they continued, Yan Hong would surely lose.

He picked up a black stone, twirled it in his hand, and hesitated to place it.

“Hmph, you haven’t seen the Little Immortal in action; I’m telling you, one day...”

“Alright, hurry up, don’t dawdle!” Zhao Chuan Yuan interrupted impatiently.

Playing Go with such a terrible player, he gained no sense of accomplishment from winning.

However, it could at least relieve some boredom.

Yan Hong snorted, then looked at the subtly connected Dragon Vein on the board.

He immediately became anxious, scratching his ears and cheeks.

“Oh no, I played incorrectly just now, retract, retract!”

As he spoke, he reached out to grab a white stone on the board.

Zhao Chuan Yuan, quick-witted, stopped him.

“You, how can you take back a move!”

Yan Hong reluctantly withdrew his hand, snorted, “Are you going to bet or not!”

“I bet, I bet he won’t be able to solve the Yao Beast problem within Great Qian in a month!” Zhao Chuan Yuan said confidently.

After all, how powerful could a master from a first-rate School be?

One must know that those Yao Beasts wouldn’t fight you one-on-one.

They would come in hundreds or thousands.

They could tire you to death, let alone kill you.

The more formidable the Yao Beasts, the more minor Yao Beasts they had under them.

Song Ming could not possibly go one-on-one with those Great Yao Beasts.

Moreover, the strength of each of those Great Yao Beasts was not comparable to that of the Old Wolf King in Qing Province.

Even one-on-one, Song Ming would have a hard time killing them.

“Heh, a month, you really dare to think!”

Yan Hong, with a look of disdain, casually dropped the black stone in his hand onto an empty space on the board.

Zhao Chuan Yuan was puzzled, “What, did I say too little!”

“Heh, seven days, at most seven days, all the Great Yao Beasts in Great Qian will die, believe it or not!” Yan Hong said, gesturing with seven fingers.

Zhao Chuan Yuan smiled, reaching out to place the last stone at the top of the Dragon Vein on the board.

The Great Dragon was formed.

“You lost!”

“Oh no, it doesn’t count, it doesn’t count, I made a mistake just now!”

Yan Hong was about to reach out again to take away the black stone he had just placed.

Just then, Meng Li and Zhang Xinhua, who were standing awkwardly, both exclaimed in surprise.

Because in front of them, a task panel suddenly appeared.

【You have completed the hidden task (Immortal Sect Secret) second phase, Internal and External Troubles】

【Task Completion: 100%】

【Task Participation: 0%】

【Task rewards are being settled...】

【Settlement complete】

【You will receive the following rewards: Experience +350,000, Level 40 Gold Rank equipment Aurora Robe, Attribute Boost Scroll * 1】

Three hundred and fifty thousand experience points instantly raised them by two Ranks.

They reached Rank 37.

Not to mention a Gold Rank equipment and an Attribute Boost Scroll.

At this moment, they only felt that happiness came too suddenly.

They had only waited here for a few hours, and the task was already completed.

Meng Li’s heart was filled with mixed emotions.

That is to say, it had been less than a day since they entered the Demon Suppression Pass True Secret Realm.

Song Ming had already killed all the Yao Beasts in Great Qian!

This efficiency, this speed, Meng Li could only exclaim, terrifying as such!

Zhang Xinhua was also dumbfounded, staring at the panel in front of her for a long time without coming back to her senses.

Yan Hong noticed their abnormality and asked, “What’s wrong with you two, did something happen?”

Meng Li swallowed, then stammered, “I think you two adults don’t need to bet anymore; it’s estimated that Song Ming will be back tonight!”

“What did you say, what do you mean?” Yan Hong was puzzled.

“I mean, all the Great Yao Beasts in Great Qian have been dealt with by my Junior Brother!” Meng Li said without hesitation.

“What? All killed, are you not kidding me?”

Yan Hong was greatly surprised, suddenly stood up, and consequently overturned the chessboard in front of him.

The scattered stones immediately hit Zhao Chuan Yuan.

Zhao Chuan Yuan’s face darkened, and he also turned his gaze to Meng Li, who was standing in the main hall.

“I’ve lived this long and have never heard of anyone being able to travel through the four provinces of Great Qian in one day, let alone kill Great Yao Beasts.

How do you know your Junior Brother has already done it, or are you deliberately trying to deceive us?”

Meng Li and Zhang Xinhua’s expressions changed, and they immediately became nervous.

They naturally could not reveal the matter of the task panel.

So at that moment, they had no evidence to prove what they had just said.

Just then, a calm voice came from outside.

“The major Yao Beasts within Great Qian have all been killed by me; I have not failed in my mission!”
