Suzhou Demon Suppression Bureau, Huo Tianzheng put down the communication token: "Itâs over!"
Wei Fan showed a look of surprise. He had prepared to instigate a fight between the Tongzhou Demon Suppression Bureau and the Divine Sword Sect, taking Long Xueyi to participate in the annihilation of the sect. Could such a prestigious Peak Sect be destroyed just like that?
Huo Tianzheng shook his head: "There was no fight. Qi Zhicun backed down and suggested joining forces with General Pei to kill the Black Lake Jiao Venerable to offer as reparation, alleviating General Peiâs concerns. Zuoqiu Yi and Meng Tianrang died in vain. General Pei agreed to the plan. Now they are joining forces to kill the Black Lake Jiao Venerable.
Pei Shinan is also cunning. I guess this was his plan all along. After all, a real fight with the Divine Sword Sect would only result in the Black Lake Jiao Venerable gaining the upper hand, and countless residents of Tongzhou City would perish.
Not saying they can truly slay the Black Lake Jiao Venerable, but as long as they can severely injure him and force him to recuperate for a few years, Tongzhou can enjoy peace for some time."
Wei Fan nodded, understanding.
After all, the Tongzhou Demon Suppression Bureau isnât Su City, lacking the absolute strength to crush the Divine Sword Sect. A clash would only benefit the Demon Fiends.
Perishing together with the Divine Sword Sect or giving them a chance to fight against the Black Lake Jiao Venerable? Pei Shinan would obviously choose the latter.
Once he has the time, he can slowly deal with the Divine Sword Sect in the future.
Thereâs no need to risk the lives of millions in Tongzhou for a momentary grudge.
"Although the matter is set aside, you must still be cautious in the future. This time, Qi Zhicun was caught off guard, failing to anticipate that you could kill Zuoqiu Yi. In anger, he lost focus and wasnât prepared, leading to a compromise.
If he acts against you again, he will likely have a foolproof plan ready."
Huo Tianzheng laid out the pros and cons for Wei Fan. Pei Shinan was calculating, instigating Qi Zhicun, who wasnât prepared, leading to Qi Zhicunâs compromise.
If he targets Wei Fan again, there wonât be such compromises in place.
Wei Fan remained expressionless: "By the time heâs ready, I might already be a Martial Venerable. Even if he doesnât seek me out, I will go to settle todayâs score!"
Huo Tianzhengâs eyelids twitched crazily. Given Wei Fanâs cultivation speed, it might actually happen.
Only those truly familiar with Wei Fan knew how terrifying his growth speed was.
When he joined the Demon Suppression Bureau, he was at the True Qi Ninth Layer. Now, in less than four months, heâs already at the Mid-Divine Realm. It seems becoming a Martial Venerable powerhouse is just a matter of months.
With Wei Fanâs murderous nature, even though Qi Zhicun didnât act against him today, the feud is set. Once Wei Fan is powerful enough, he will surely settle todayâs score!
"Qi Zhicun is finished!"
Such a thought emerged in Huo Tianzhengâs mind. Based on Jianghuâs unfounded rumors, the outside world couldnât comprehend Wei Fanâs true fearfulness.
That single Golden Bell from Wei Fan could threaten a Martial Venerable, not to mention potential hidden powers.
Even someone like Huo Tianzheng, who witnessed Wei Fanâs growth, only realized in the Silver Moon Valley battle how terrifying Wei Fanâs weaponry was.
Had Qi Zhicun ventured to Suzhou today, who killed whom might still be uncertain.
He looked up at Wei Fan: "When do you plan to rescue that old fox Long Jianying? With the Garrison Commander and Prime Minister suppressing Tongzhou, we need him at the helm.
Iâm already half-buried and canât handle these messy affairs.
Moreover, when the Commander from the Capital City arrives, and finds that the Commander-in-Chief hasnât appeared, he might suspect something is up.
The Divine Silkworm Nine Transformations should not be known to the world, or else you might miss the chance to obtain this unparalleled martial art."
Having Wei Fan rescue Long Jianying was Huo Tianzhengâs idea, and he knew Wei Fan had agreed to it.
Though a request for help, itâs also a fortune for Wei Fan.
If the Celestial Roc Body Cleansing Skill is so terrifying, the Divine Silkworm Nine Transformations must be even more powerful.
Wei Fan met Long Xueyiâs expectant gaze and said: "I want to prepare a bit more, probably setting out within half a month!"
[Ordinary Power: 12,000 years]
[Spirit Soul Power: 100 years]
Looking at the panel, the ordinary power of just 12,000 years feels inadequate.
He wants to prepare some spirit soul power as well. Since the Divine Silkworm Nine Transformations isnât a conventional martial art but specializes in the divine soul, spirit soul power might come in handy.
Should ordinary power be ineffective, having prepared spirit soul power could prevent a tragedy.
Preparing power requires slaying a batch of Demon Monarchs.
Currently, he only knows of a Golden Eagle Demon Monarch at Black Wind Ridge, and knows of no other Demon Monarchs, having only collected Black Python Demon Lordâs aura.
Yet what he lacks, Huo Tianzheng might have.
Having been a Demon Hunter all his life, Huo Tianzheng holds numerous demon auras, knowing exactly where Demon Monarchs still exist around Su City.
Huo Tianzheng didnât ask what Wei Fan was preparing or why he didnât prioritize saving Long Jianying over slaying demons first.
He looked at Wei Fan: "You canât kill the Golden Eagle Demon Monarch right now; his presence is Su Cityâs greatest shield. Smashing Cyan Cloud Mountain and striking Black Wind Ridge, the Demon Race wonât allow unbridled expansion of the Human Race territories."
Previously, Su City wasnât incapable of razing Cyan Cloud Mountain; only the situation called for restraint. Even when Long Jianying wasnât trapped, Su City could have easily leveled Cyan Cloud Mountain.
The Demon Race has not just one Black Python Demon Lord; reckless offensives would spark a full-scale Human-Demon war.
"You canât kill the Golden Eagle Demon Monarch, but you can slay them in other Commandery Cities. As a Divine Realm Demon Hunter, your battlefield isnât confined to one area. Iâll send you and Xueyi with some demon aura energy as a breakthrough gift into the Divine Realm."
