Chapter 229: I am the Crimson-eyed Divine Lord
Chapter 229: I am the Crimson-eyed Divine Lord
After apprehending the Moonhowling Demon King and feeding the Dragon Immortal with demon blood to nurture it to the level of a Demon King...
Shen Yi's physical strength alone was already far beyond what ordinary demons could withstand.
With a single punch, the Black Bear Demon's head was buried in the mountainside.
He then pulled it out and unleashed another punch.
"This lord... I am the Divine Lord... You, you filthy beast..."
Both of the old bear demon's eyes were smashed, and in the midst of excruciating pain, it desperately tried to struggle to its feet.
But every time it rose, Shen Yi would deliver a whip-like kick, sending it back to the ground.
His two fists rained down like a fierce storm.
"Speak louder, I can't hear you."
Hearing the indifferent voice by his ear, the black bear opened its bloodthirsty maw, "I am—"
Beneath the obsidian sleeve robe, a pale arm suddenly pierced through its lower jaw, then smashed its tongue.
"What are you?"
"Ooooow!"
The bear demon wailed, and just as the arm was pulled back, it shattered half of its skull.
It was the Crimson-eyed Divine Lord...
He wore ornate armor, his vivid red fur standing out.
His imposing figure resembled a divine general.
Yet, at this moment, he was forced to lie on the ground, unable to even stand up.
Shen Yi didn't use any other means; he didn't even touch the Submerged Abyss at his waist. His fists moved relentlessly, not stopping for even a moment.
Only when his arms grew sore, and his body was drenched in thick blood, did he slowly straighten up from the bear's corpse. The entire mountain was already on the verge of collapse, as if it would shatter completely at any moment.
The wet black robe caught the eyes of everyone below the mountain.
The young man stood atop the massive bear's corpse, his small figure exuding a pressure that left everyone breathless.
"..."
He silently observed the corpse beneath his feet for a while.
Then, with a wave of his hand, he stored the body in his treasure artifact.
Turning around, he began walking down the mountain.
"This..."
Yang Qianxiang hovered in the air. When he was slaying the demon, he felt like an onlooker, and now that the demon was subdued, he felt even more stunned than before.
A Temple of Martial Arts disciple, a Yin Spirit Cultivator.
Where was the Yin Spirit?
All he saw was a humanoid demon that, in a terrifying manner, smashed the Red-Eyed Demon King's head into a bloody pulp of flesh and bone.
This crimson-eyed great demon sat in the middle, simultaneously suppressing the Demon Suppressing Bureau and another Demon King.
It was truly domineering and fierce.
However, in the hands of the Patrol Commander, it was as powerless as a child, unable to retaliate.
This sight left the onlookers feeling suffocated.
...
At the foot of the mountain.
Toppled statues, overturned incense altars, broken wood, and shattered stones lay scattered everywhere, creating a scene of utter chaos.
As Shen Yi approached the crowd, a thick, pungent smell of blood filled the air.
"Patrol Commander!"
Zhang Xuan knelt on one knee, his palms clasped in a fist.
His body trembled with excitement.
The previous scene had completely shattered his preconceived notions about Yin Spirit Cultivators.
It turned out that only Primordial Masters could patrol the Nine Provinces.
As long as one cultivates the Body Tempering Technique alongside martial arts, even Martial Immortals could do it! Based on Shen Yi's performance, Zhang Xuan even believed that even in a physical confrontation, a Primordial Chaos Realm cultivator might not be a match for the Patrol Commander.
"Heh... Heh..."
Many of the commoners were terrified, burying their heads in the ground, trembling with fear, not daring to lift their heads and look directly.
The previous earthquake and mountain-shaking event, in their eyes, was no different from the legends of gods and immortals fighting.
The Crimson-eyed Divine Lord, who required day and night worship, only left them with cries of agony and wails of sorrow.
Until the middle-aged man clad in black armor knelt on the ground.
The title of Patrol Commander was not one that ordinary people could address.
(End of Chapter)But as the people of Song Prefecture, how could they not recognize the Crimson Mantle with Black Armor that they had longed for?
At this moment, the Demon Subjugation General was bowing respectfully to the young man.
The people of the Four Provinces had long abandoned their futile fantasies.
After repeatedly witnessing their family and friends being taken to the kitchen and then served on the dining table, and with the group of Cloud Patterned Black Robes never appearing, they had come to accept reality.
Now, these officials had truly returned?
"Quickly arrange for more people, and thoroughly search the Four Provinces again to ensure no demons are left behind."
Shen Yi nodded, indicating for the other party to stand up.
Even with her experience, Qinghua Madam could not have done it perfectly.
Moreover, the Shadow Soul was too powerful, and she struggled to control it. Without the Incense Fire Wish Power to replenish her, she couldn't wander around for too long either.
Upon hearing these words, the people lying on the ground felt inexplicably weak all over, their arms gradually unable to support their heavy bodies. If not for the nauseating stench of blood, some might have already lost control and started sobbing.
It wasn't some other demons invading this place; the person was the real Demon Suppressing Bureau official, leading his team to reclaim the city taken by the demons.
Compared to these ordinary people, Zhang Xuan's situation wasn't much better.
What did he mean by searching again?
Could it be that the remaining Four Provinces, with over a hundred counties, had already been visited by Shen Yi?
"This subordinate obeys your command!"
Zhang Xuan suppressed his shock and hurriedly cupped his fists in agreement.
Beside him, Yang Qianxiang slowly opened his eyes. His already emaciated appearance, combined with his trembling movements, made him look like a real elderly man.
"Song Prefecture Commander Yang Qianxiang, reporting to the Patrol Commander." He bowed.
After speaking, the old man knelt down with a thud, "Qianxiang has failed in his duty to protect the prefecture. I beg for punishment from Shen Yi."
The demon disaster had been resolved so easily by the other party, which made Yang Qianxiang excited but also pained. He had been thinking about how to break through to the Zhongjing Wuxian realm all day. If he had used that wasted time to cultivate the Body Tempering Technique...
Perhaps, Song Prefecture wouldn't have fallen into such a dire situation.
"I don't care about that."
Shen Yi shook his head. He had joined the Demon Suppressing Bureau for less than a year, so how could he know the rules of punishment and reward there?
He didn't bother with things he didn't understand.
He would bring the news back to the Central Office, and those who understood would handle it.
Of course, if one disregarded those rules, from Shen Yi's perspective alone.
General Jiangan faced two Demon Kings and almost lost the entire Qingzhou. This old man's cultivation was not as good as General Jiangan's, but he managed to hold on to half of it, so it shouldn't be considered dereliction of duty.
"Let's go handle the matter, and while we're at it, gather the monster hunters and organize the information about the other Demon King. I'll come for it later."
Shen Yi rode the Demon Cloud again; the demon disaster in Song Prefecture was over, but his task was not yet complete.
"This subordinate understands."
Yang Qianxiang raised his head in a daze, and he suddenly realized something.
Why did he always feel that Shen Yi wasn't here to inspect Song Prefecture?
Regarding the work of the Demon Suppressing Bureau in Song Prefecture, Shen Yi didn't seem to care much.
Yang Qianxiang watched as Shen Yi rode the cloud and left.
After a long time, Yang Qianxiang finally withdrew his gaze and turned to look at the excited Zhang Xuan, "You call this... a basic understanding of the Body Tempering Technique?"
After working together for so long, he had never realized that this Demon Subjugation General had such a big attitude.
"That's not what I meant."
Zhang Xuan's mouth twitched twice. How could he know that Shen Yi was this humble?
