Chapter 1647 Returning to Zhengyuan Heaven

The joyful laughter floating in his personal secret realm seeped into his heart, making Su Fan feel relaxed and extremely happy.

What I risked my life for was precisely this peace and excitement right now.

In fact, Su Fan's Daoist partners did not have a deep understanding of his true strength.

At least no one knows that his current abilities are already enough to sweep across the entire lower realm, and no one can stop him.

Only the old witch residing inside Wei Xiaomo's body knew his background perfectly well, but the old witch rarely woke up, so Wei Xiaomo naturally knew nothing about it.

After carefully dressing up, the senior sister and others led the women and children of their families out of the courtyard in a grand procession, heading towards the streets and alleys of Lingyun Immortal City.

The women and children of the Su family, along with the maids and servants who accompanied them, numbered in the hundreds, making for a rather grand procession.

Su Fan had no interest in accompanying a group of women and children shopping and joining in the fun, so he took advantage of the moment when everyone was about to leave and turned into an elegant teahouse on the side of the street.

Su Fan chose a tea table on the second floor by the window, where he could rest and enjoy the view outside.

Although he didn't accompany them personally, he had already told them to just shop around and buy whatever they wanted.

No need to look at the price or calculate the cost; just buy it if you like it, and he will cover all the expenses.

Only Li Chongxiu quietly accompanied Su Fan. The two sat facing each other, leisurely sipping spiritual tea, their gazes casually sweeping over the bustling street scene outside the window. Life was peaceful and serene.

He wasn't worried about his family's safety at all.

Long before everyone left, he had secretly left his divine imprint on each of the women and children.

Even though his family of several hundred people were scattered in various corners of Lingyun Immortal City, every move of each of them was under his surveillance.

If someone is in danger, he can arrive at their side in an instant with just a thought.

"Xiuer... It's a rare trip to Xuan Guangtian, why don't you go for a stroll in the city with them..." Su Fan asked softly, holding his teacup.

Upon hearing Su Fan's question, Li Chongxiu bowed slightly, picked up the teapot, and carefully filled it with tea for him.

"My master is here all by himself, so someone needs to serve him. Besides, I don't like shopping or joining in crowds..."

Although Li Chongxiu had already been taken into Su Fan's room and was now his person, she always regarded herself as a maid in front of Su Fan, dutifully fulfilling her duties and maintaining a perfect sense of propriety, never overstepping her bounds in the slightest.

Su Fan had tried to persuade her several times not to be so reserved, but to little avail. In the end, he had no choice but to go along with her wishes and stop forcing her.

Just then, the casual conversation of several cultivators at another tea table not far away inadvertently reached Su Fan's ears, instantly catching his attention.

"You guys are saying that this great victory against the demons was really won by Su Fan all by himself..."

"It can't be wrong. Didn't you see the image transmitted back from the light screen? It's crystal clear, there's no way it can be faked..."

"I didn't believe it at first either, but after seeing the images on the screen, even though I had my doubts, I had to believe it. That guy's strength is terrifying..."

"It's strange, that evil old demon is so powerful, how come I've never heard of him before? Could it be that he suddenly appeared out of nowhere..."

"That's normal. After all, he's an evil cultivator. He must have kept a deep hide before, how could he dare to flaunt himself and attract attention..."

Hearing their conversation, Su Fan's relaxed expression vanished instantly.

He frowned slightly, suddenly realizing the seriousness of the situation.

His eyes narrowed, and he stopped hiding his true intentions, slowly releasing his divine sense.

Boundless divine consciousness spread out like a tide, instantly enveloping the entire Lingyun Immortal City.

Every rustling of wind and every word and action in every corner of the city was clearly imprinted in his mind.

At this moment, a huge transparent light screen stands in the central square of Lingyun Immortal City.

Below the light screen, a dense crowd of cultivators gathered, shouting and cheering like a tidal wave, their expressions filled with fervor and awe.

Su Fan's divine sense swept lightly across the transparent light screen, and he froze instantly, dumbfounded, with only one thought in his mind.

This is...

To his utter shock, every move he made in the "Barbarian Heaven" as he slayed demons and fought a bloody battle was secretly recorded by someone using a recording magic device.

He forgot that the image-recording magic item is a passively triggered artifact with no offensive capabilities; it is purely a support item.

Such a magical treasure floats high in the sky, and if one does not deliberately use their divine sense to investigate, it is impossible to detect it. No wonder he did not notice anything unusual when he was fighting in the Barbarian Heaven.

This is really the end for us.

Su Fan never expected that his actions in the Demon Realm would be recorded in their entirety by a recording artifact, and that these images would be transmitted back to the entire human world of the Yuanmang Constellation.

I originally intended to keep a low profile, but now I can't hide it anymore.

Su Fan sighed softly, a helpless, bitter smile appearing on his lips.

Oh well, it doesn't matter anymore.

These things can't be hidden for long anyway, so instead of getting anxious and worried, it's better to let nature take its course.

In any case, he had already publicly stated that he had used the Blood Burning Secret Technique to kill the demons, thus overdrawing his own cultivation foundation.

To fully recover, I will need to remain in seclusion for a long time.

I've already gone this far, I can't force him to go back to the battlefield and keep fighting.

Thinking of this, Su Fan suppressed the turmoil in his heart, picked up his teacup, took a sip, and continued to listen to the idle chatter of the cultivators not far away.

"There are rumors circulating outside that Su Fan also killed the avatar of the Heavenly Demon Clan that descended from the Upper Realm..."

"You believe that... Don't listen to those people's nonsense. That's an avatar of a demon from the upper realm, with unfathomable strength. He could absolutely crush all cultivators in the lower realm. No matter how strong Su Fan is, he couldn't possibly do that..."

"I also think this news is unreliable. Even those great cultivators in the late stage of the Integration Realm can only wait to die when facing the Heavenly Demon Avatar from the Upper Realm. They have no chance to resist at all..."

"Then tell me, who exactly killed that avatar of the Upper Realm Demon? It couldn't have just vanished into thin air..."

Upon hearing this, Su Fan's tense lips relaxed slightly, and he couldn't help but chuckle softly.

Fortunately, his actions of crossing the demon's defenses alone and killing the demon's clone were not recorded by the recording artifact.

Anyway, he had already made up his mind. No matter who asked about that avatar of the Upper Realm Heavenly Demon,
He denied everything, claiming ignorance and claiming to know nothing. If it were anyone else who had killed the Heavenly Demon clone, they would probably have been eager to announce it to the world and let everyone know about their achievement, but Su Fan had no desire for such limelight.

He knew in his heart that being too tall and ostentatious was definitely not a good thing; on the contrary, it was likely to attract endless trouble.

Moreover, he has already helped the Jiaochen Realm thwart the demon invasion and defend the human race's line of defense.

No matter how fierce the war between the two races becomes, it will no longer concern him.

This war is destined to be a fierce and protracted one, and it is estimated that it will take decades or even centuries to end.

The Su family's hundreds of women and children spent the entire day strolling around Lingyun Immortal City, from one end of the street to the other, with great enthusiasm.

During that time, he didn't encounter any fools who would cause trouble or give Su Fan an opportunity to show off and be humiliated.

Minor frictions and conflicts occasionally occurred, but Su Fan subtly punished them with his divine sense, without causing any ripples.

As evening approached and the sun set, the senior sister and the others, exhausted but proud of their achievements, returned to the courtyard and then entered their personal secret realm together.

Li Chongxiu had already returned to the secret realm and arranged for people to prepare a sumptuous feast.

The whole family sat together, celebrating the victory in a lively and harmonious atmosphere.

Perhaps because of the victory in the great battle, all the women and children were particularly excited. The banquet lasted until late at night, with laughter and joy never stopping.

Su Fan didn't stay up late with them. While everyone was still in high spirits, he quietly left his personal secret realm and went to the hall in the courtyard alone.

He sat cross-legged on the jade couch in the center of the hall, his eyes slightly closed, sitting quietly alone, his thoughts churning, his mind filled with the events of the light screen just now.

To be honest, even he himself didn't expect to make such a big splash this time.

Back in the Barbarian Heaven, he was so focused on killing demons that he paid no attention to his surroundings, let alone the image-recording artifacts hidden in the sky.

Now that's good; even if he wanted to hide it, he couldn't.

Actually, it didn't matter at all; Su Fan knew exactly what was going on.

Even without these photo-recording devices, his actions couldn't be kept secret for long.

His rampage and bloody battles in the Demon Realm might fool most ordinary cultivators in the Yuanmang Constellation, but they could never fool those old guys in the Integration Realm who had lived for countless years and were very perceptive.

Especially the top cultivators of those great worlds, and the big shots of the human race's Daoist sects in the upper realm of the Yuanmang constellation.

With their vision and methods, it won't be long before they notice this oddball.

If only those old guys could calm down and review the entire war against the demons.

By analyzing the causes and consequences of the events and the disparity in strength, one can easily understand the key factors and know who is secretly orchestrating the battle.

There was no way around it; he was just too conspicuous in the demon realm.

He not only nearly wiped out all the ninth-tier demons in the Barbarian Heaven, but also transformed that territory once occupied by demons into a barren, lifeless wasteland.

At least in the entire history of the Yuanmang constellation, no cultivator has ever been able to sweep across the entire "Barbarian Heaven" single-handedly, with no one able to stop him.

Su Fan secretly guessed that it wouldn't be long before even the reclusive bigwigs of the human race's Daoist sect in the upper realm of the Yuanmang constellation would know that such a ruthless person as him had emerged in the lower realm.

A prodigy who could single-handedly wipe out an entire realm of demons.

In any case, Su Fan's name is now firmly etched in the minds of all the Nascent Soul Realm veterans in the entire Yuanmang Constellation, and can never be erased.

Such terrifying strength, coupled with such ruthless and brutal methods, is something that may never be surpassed in the future, but it is definitely unprecedented.

His initial thought was simple: he just wanted to finish this battle quickly and decisively, completely resolve the trouble caused by the demon invasion, and then live a few peaceful days with his family.

But things didn't go as planned. Now that he's in the limelight, he'll likely be disturbed by various forces in the future, and he'll never have a peaceful day again.

Thinking of this, Su Fan couldn't help but rub his temples, his head throbbing with worry.

No matter how he tries to conceal his strength and keep a low profile, it will probably be difficult for him to have peace and quiet in the future.

Su Fan didn't think too much about it. He simply put aside his worries and led his family to have a great time in Lingyun Immortal City for a few days, experiencing all the sights and local specialties before leaving the city with everyone.

He found a deserted open space outside the city, took out a small bronze boat, only a few inches in size, from his storage ring, and casually tossed it into the air.

The small boat grew longer with the wind, and with a flash of light, it instantly transformed into a flying boat more than ten feet long, with a smooth and lustrous body. The boat was covered with intricate starry runes, exuding an ancient and majestic aura.

This starship was a treasure he had seized from a fallen cultivator from the Upper Realm. Although it was only a dozen or so feet long on the outside, its interior was a vast and unique world.

The interior of the flying boat was hundreds of feet long and dozens of stories high, with carved beams and painted rafters, decorated in an extremely luxurious manner. There were countless cabins of all kinds, and high-end facilities such as spiritual springs, alchemy rooms, and dining halls were all available.

Not to mention his family of several hundred people, even if more than ten thousand people were to ride together, it would be more than enough.

Moreover, the various spiritual materials and supplies stored on the flying boat are sufficient for them to return smoothly to Zhengyuan Heaven without needing to stop for resupply.

Su Fan was the first to step onto the flying boat. Then, with a thought, he summoned Yaksha, Steward Yusheng, and others from his storage ring, instructing them to be responsible for piloting and controlling the starship and heading to Zhengyuan Heaven.

Xuan Guangtian and Zheng Yuantian were not far apart, and there were several star gates in between that served as teleportation nodes, saving the trouble of long-distance flight.

In just over a month, the Star Domain Flying Ship landed steadily above the Su family's old residence in Zhengyuantian.

He didn't disturb the descendants who stayed behind at the Su family's old residence. Instead, he found a safe place to land, put away the starship, and then walked towards the Su family's old residence.

Su Fan hadn't gone far when he suddenly frowned.

He sensed several extremely powerful auras rushing toward him.

A moment later, the figures of several Nascent Soul Realm cultivators appeared in the sky opposite, their immense divine senses pressing down on him.

"What fellow Daoist has come to this place...?"

Hearing their words, Su Fan guessed their origins; they were probably the Nascent Soul Realm experts from the "Demon Sun Divine Palace" who were helping to protect the Su family.

Thinking of this, he quickly cupped his hands in greeting to the group.

"I am Su Fan. Thank you, senior brothers, for protecting the Su family. You have worked hard..."
