121: No, that guy is too fierce.

Chen Yuan blew a breath, removing the Golden Restriction outside.

“Poof”

“Poof”

“Poof”

After a few muffled sounds, the room was instantly filled with wails and howls.

The sounds of three grotesque Human Devils begging for mercy, filled with resentment, and startled anger rang out.

These fellows were not only demonized in their Physical Bodies, but their Divine Souls were also the same.

“Mercy, my Lord.” A small, foot-tall Human Devil with Azure scales and Dragon horns looked terrified, constantly begging for mercy.

“Yang Wei, I knew you were spineless. We’ve fallen to this state, do you think he’ll let you go?” The White Tiger, with a tiger head and human body, gnashed his teeth at the Azure Dragon, his eyes filled with hatred, roaring in startled anger.

“Chen Yuan, where is the Vermilion Bird?” On the other hand, the Black Tortoise, with horns on its head and an ink-black shell covering its body, had blood-red eyes and let out a muffled roar.

“Killed!” Chen Yuan replied indifferently.

As soon as he spoke, the Black Tortoise instantly went mad.

“Ah, you deserve to die!”

Then its essence rushed towards Chen Yuan.

Chen Yuan’s eyes instantly turned cold, and a wisp of golden flame emerged, instantly enveloping the opponent.

“It seems you turtles are like green beans, beastly hybrids.”

He snorted coldly, and that wisp of golden flame blazed fiercely, enveloping the opponent’s essence.

A violent sizzling sound erupted, and instantly, the Black Tortoise’s shrill screams came from within.

The screams were too eerie, making the White Tiger and Azure Dragon’s faces freeze.

Chen Yuan’s gaze fell upon these two Human Devils, his eyes slowly turning, his tone chilling.

“You two, who will tell me the true origins of your Demonic Sect? Chen wants to hear it.”

“My Lord, I’ll tell you, I’ll tell you!”

Yang Wei, who was the Azure Dragon, quickly spoke.

The White Tiger hesitated, and seeing the Azure Dragon speak first, he cursed him for being spineless.

It wasn’t until Chen Yuan’s chilling gaze fell upon him, and he flicked out a wisp of Golden Core True Fire, that the fellow’s face changed drastically, and then, like the Black Tortoise, he let out a shrill scream.

Yang Wei, hearing the miserable screams of the White Tiger and Black Tortoise at this moment, was terrified and quickly spilled the beans about their origins.

Three years ago, they were merely a few leaders who roamed the mountains, in the Body Profound Realm, and had quite some reputation outside the Fu Gate. Later, they ambushed a passing merchant caravan and encountered a powerful Human Devil. The wheel of fate began to turn from then on. This Human Devil subdued the four of them, transformed them into Human Devils, taught them the method of Human Devil transformation and the ways to deal with Devils, and then disappeared.

And that Human Devil said that when they were strong enough, he would make them one of his members.

Later, that Human Devil never appeared again, as if it was a temporary whim, but the ambitions of the four grew larger and larger, spiraling out of control, causing a demonic calamity outside the Fu Gate, leading to the current situation.

“One of their members?”

“To become a true Devil or what?”

Chen Yuan raised an eyebrow upon hearing the Azure Dragon’s narration.

The reason he asked these questions was that the Feixian Sect’s origin couldn’t be rootless. He wanted to understand it clearly to have a better grasp. Through the golden scales, his previous conjecture was that these fellows had deep connections with Devils.

He hadn’t expected that a Human Devil would lead them down this path.

“What was that Human Devil’s cultivation at the time?”

Chen Yuan’s eyes sparkled brightly.

“Unclear.” The Azure Dragon quickly shook his head.

“Even if I entered the Fourth Heavenly Gate, recalling that person, I still couldn’t fathom it.”

Upon hearing this, Chen Yuan’s eyes flickered. It seemed that the term “Human Devil” specifically marked by the Tiger Talisman back then was a vast group.

He was silent for a moment, then his gaze suddenly sharpened, a golden light shooting directly at the Azure Dragon’s essence, abruptly stopping in front of it.

The intimidating Aura emanating from within made the Azure Dragon’s face fill with terror.

Chen Yuan spoke, asking him,

“I ask you, where is your treasure vault?”

These fellows had been rampant outside the Fu Gate for many years, so they must have accumulated a lot of wealth. Chen Yuan would never let them die easily without squeezing them dry.

Upon hearing this, the Azure Dragon’s eyes rolled around, and he hesitated to speak.

“If you don’t speak, then die!”

The Dharma Eye Golden Light shot from Chen Yuan’s eyes directly penetrated the essence.

The Azure Dragon felt his Divine Soul about to be torn apart and shouted urgently, “I’ll tell you, I’ll tell you!”

“Each of our Four Symbols’ treasure vaults is only known to ourselves. I only know mine.”

“Don’t be verbose. You tell me yours, I have ways for the others.” Chen Yuan saw the Azure Dragon speak, and the golden light stopped, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.

The Azure Dragon revealed the hiding place of his treasure vault.

And after that, in the room, screams were incessant.

………

At this moment, in Baidi City, to the east, a large compound covering several hundred mu.

Inside, vermilion painted tiles, carved beams, and painted rafters, with pavilions, waterside platforms, and rockeries everywhere, a change of scenery every ten steps, truly luxurious.

Amidst it, a clamor arose.

At the entrance, armored soldiers drove horse-drawn carriages in and out of the compound. They went in empty and came out fully loaded, carrying bags of grain or large black wooden boxes.

And inside the courtyard, Hunters wearing unified uniforms with black armbands were either pressed to the ground by armored soldiers with knives or forks, or captured with their hands tied behind their backs, their heads forced to the ground.

One of the Hunters, with a powerful Aura and tattoos on his arm, was surrounded by more than a dozen armored soldiers. His face was filled with startled anger as he watched large quantities of money and grain from the warehouse being loaded onto carriages and transported away. He angrily said, “That’s our Sihai Gang’s money and grain! How dare you transfer it away? I’m going to report this to our Gang Leader!”

However, the leading armored soldier took out an official document.

“This is the Zhonglang General’s order. Your Sihai Gang’s money, grain, ships, and boatmen are being requisitioned by the Fu Gate to aid the refugees outside the Fu Gate.”

“Those who dare to obstruct will be executed without mercy!”

“You…” The Sihai Gang’s Hall Master’s pupils widened in rage.

But at this moment, a furious roar came, carrying a sullen anger.

“What a ‘kill without mercy’!”

As the voice fell, a black shadow landed in the center of the crowd. Instantly, a violent wave of Aura overturned the armored soldiers in front, causing them to fall to the ground with thuds.

The person revealed his figure, with raised eyebrows and wide eyes, a cold light in his eyes, and a wild Aura. He said coldly:

“Old Thief Xiang actually set his sights on my Sihai Gang. It seems he doesn’t take Li seriously.”

“If you want money and grain, let him come and ask me for it himself!”

As soon as he said this,

A slightly playful voice came.

“Gang Leader Li, you really came just in time. I remember you seemed to have left the Fu Gate.”

As the voice fell, Xiang Qingtian’s figure solidified in the air, revealing himself.

“Xiang Qingtian, what do you mean?” Li Jingyun frowned when he saw Xiang Qingtian, his voice unfriendly.

“The Sky Patrol Division is requisitioning the Sihai Gang’s money, grain, and ships. That was my order.” Xiang Qingtian’s eyes widened slightly, his voice faint.

“Xiang Qingtian, this is retaliation! Just because Li didn’t make a move last night, but so what? This is your responsibility to guard the Fu Gate, what does it have to do with us? Helping is kindness, not helping is duty. Don’t you think this is ridiculous?” Li Jingyun’s face was gloomy, and he continued:

“I respect you, you are a Zhonglang General. If my Sihai Gang doesn’t respect you, what can you do to Li!”

With that, his Aura surged, and he flicked his sleeve to the side, instantly sending several armored soldiers flying, eliciting a scream.

“You’re right, but your Sihai Gang eats the food of Baidi City, Li Jingyun. Normally, I, the This General, can tolerate how overbearing your Sihai Gang is, but this time, you will spit it all out for the This General.”

Xiang Qingtian’s voice was unhurried at first, but as he spoke, he took a step forward, and a surging Heavenly Gate Aura erupted.

.

On the other side, within the Sky Patrol Division’s 駐地,

Chen Yuan had two fireballs in front of him, from which the screams of the White Tiger and Black Tortoise were emanating.

He was interrogating these two fellows about the whereabouts of their treasure vaults.

Just then, his expression shifted slightly, and he stopped, his gaze looking out of the room.

Immediately after, he raised his sleeve, putting away the two fireballs. The next second, his figure disappeared from the room.

…….

“Boom”

“Boom”

“Boom”

Above the Sihai Gang, a great roar resounded.

Two streaks of light, one raising a sky full of flames, the other raising angry waves.

Water and fire were incompatible, sizzling sounds erupted fiercely.

Xiang Qingtian and the Sihai Gang Leader, Li Jingyun, were battling, and Li Jingyun’s angry roar came from within.

“Hmph, Xiang Qingtian, Li was originally curious how you repelled the Demonic Sect Devils, whether you invited help from Langya Mountain or Feilong Temple.”

“Now you’ve grown bold, treating my Sihai Gang like a soft persimmon to squeeze, is that it?”

“Li doesn’t eat vegetarian.”

As he spoke, the waves surged, raising huge waves that slapped towards the sky, causing the flames to visibly bend.

And just then, a whistling sound pierced the air.

A silver speck, like a shooting star, instantly arrived.

“Boom”

The giant wave was shattered with a crash.

Li Jingyun, feeling an intense killing intent, his face changed, and he suddenly retreated rapidly.

Then his eyes narrowed, and he saw that it was a long spear, with three points and two edges.

Immediately after, a thin golden line shot from a distance, flashing a few times, appearing next to Xiang Qingtian.

Li Jingyun, who was named by Xiang Qingtian last night, feared being noticed by those Devils and immediately fled, waiting in a place outside the Fu Gate.

Anyway, he had already made two preparations. Upon receiving the bad news of the Demonic Sect attacking the Fu Gate, he had immediately arranged for core gang members to evacuate with a large amount of money and grain.

However, due to the rush, most of their foundation was still left in Baidi City.

After dawn, he rushed back to investigate and just happened to witness this scene.

He still didn’t know the specific situation of the great battle outside the Fu Gate last night.

He stared at Chen Yuan, his face gloomy, his eyes narrowed.

“Who are you?”

Unexpectedly, below the high sky, the Sihai Gang members who had remained in Baidi City yesterday were startled when they saw Chen Yuan.

That Hall Master quickly used a spell to ascend, arriving in front of his Gang Leader, almost directly blocking the opponent.

“Gang Leader, that is Chen Yuan!” He urgently transmitted his voice, even in a whispered transmission, he couldn’t help but keep his voice low.

“Chen Yuan?” Li Jingyun frowned.

“The one from the the pacification of demons!”

His subordinate Hall Master quickly nodded.

Li Jingyun’s eyes darkened. Seeing his subordinate’s nervous appearance, still blocking him, he grew a little impatient, his voice even rising, “Move aside! Why are you so nervous? This person has only just entered the Fourth Heavenly Gate.”

His subordinate was startled to hear his Gang Leader’s voice transmit outwardly and quickly said:

“No, Gang Leader, yesterday this person killed four Heavenly Gate Devils consecutively! The Demonic Sect’s Four Symbols were almost completely annihilated by him.”

“This person is now the Ninth Mountain’s Zhonglang General!”
