Swordholder

Is there no prime minister's court in the Western Frontier?

Chen Yuan narrowed his eyes.

Given his current level, he should know about the Western Frontier.

To the west of Wangdong Prefecture lies Xijiang Prefecture.

Compared to the dangers of Wangdong Prefecture, the Western Frontier Prefecture of the Great Xiang Empire will be more than ten times more dangerous.

Because the Western Frontier Prefecture is not only surrounded by the ruins of gods and demons, but further west lies an even darker area.

"West of the Western Frontier Prefecture lies the Continent of Eternal Night, where the world is perpetually dark and devoid of light, thus giving rise to a kind of dark creature."

Zhu Xin continued, "The dark creatures have established the Dark Night Kingdom, and they need to devour more creatures to grow stronger."

Therefore, they have been harassing the western border of my Great Xiang Empire for many years, using it as their grain storage area.

Dark Night Underworld!

Upon hearing this, Chen Yuan's gaze sharpened, and he memorized the name of the country.

Zhu Xin continued, "So there, not only can you hunt down human sword wielders, members of the Heaven and Earth Cult, and cultivators of the Azure Lotus Sect, but also creatures from the Dark Night Netherworld Kingdom."

"As long as you are strong enough and achieve great feats, obtaining the second level of the Demonic Devouring Heaven Technique is not a problem."

Li Wei looked at Chen Yuan in surprise, then realized what was going on, "Holy crap, Yuan, that's not fair!"

"What kind of Heaven-Devouring Technique do you have that you didn't tell me? You didn't even teach me?"

Chen Yuan looked at him, thought for a moment, and said, "I'll teach you later."

"Okay!"

Li Wei rubbed his hands together, his face filled with excitement.

Zhu Xin looked at Chen Yuan in surprise, "I didn't expect you to be so generous."

"So what? He can cultivate, so it's fine for me to give it to him."

Chen Yuan said calmly.

Zhu Xin paused for a moment, then realized it made sense.

Not just anyone can cultivate the Demon God Devouring Heaven Technique.

Chen Yuan looked at Zhu Xin and thought of another question, "Since the Demon God Devouring Heaven Technique is so important, why was Ji Xiaomi able to obtain it back then?"

Logically speaking, crippling even one Grand Commander of the Swords shouldn't be enough, right?

Zhu Xin's gaze fell on Nuomi in the distance, and she said, "Because his father is Fan Tianming's disciple, he has a real chance of becoming a Grandmaster of Swordsmanship in the future, or even a higher level."

"Fan Tianming?"

Chen Yuan's gaze sharpened as he recalled the renowned and unparalleled human hero described by Chen Zhaoning.

"The one who created the Heavenly Light Demon-Slaying Technique and the Heavenly Light Daoist Arts???"

Chen Yuan asked again.

"That's right."

Zhu Xin nodded.

"That······"

Chen Yuan asked curiously, "What level is he at?"

"At least at the Great Perfection of the Dao Platform."

Zhu Xin spoke up, then thought for a moment and said, "It was still two hundred years ago."

Chen Yuan's gaze froze.

He exchanged a glance with Li Wei, a look of shock appearing in his eyes.

"Therefore, crippling Lu Chengfeng means the Sword-Wielding Society will lose a Dao Platform True Lord in the future!"

Zhu Xin's eyes were filled with admiration. "This is an immense achievement. It's more than enough to obtain the Demon God Devouring Heaven Technique and the first level reward of the Evil God Devouring Heaven Technique."

Chen Yuan understood.

Then I felt melancholy again.

"What kind of great merit would we need to achieve to obtain the second reward of the Demon God Devouring Heaven Technique and the Evil God Devouring Heaven Technique?"

Chen Yuan spoke, his eyes narrowing.

In his mind, he estimated that mastering the second level of the Demon God Devouring Heaven Technique and the Evil God Devouring Heaven Technique would probably be the key to his entry into the Purple Mansion Realm. Even if it wasn't the key to entering the Purple Mansion Realm, it could be the key to making him stronger than others in the Purple Mansion Realm!

As for the cultivation methods of humanity, there is the Heavenly Light Dao Technique.

He wants to advance along all three paths: the path of humanity, the path of demons, and the path of evil!

"Either kill a Grandmaster wielding a sword, or one of the Four Great Dharma Kings of the Heaven and Earth Sect, or of course, an outer elder of the Azure Lotus Sect."

Zhu Xin winked at Chen Yuan and said seriously.

"A master swordsman?"

Chen Yuan rolled his eyes.

According to the information he recently gathered, whether it is a Sword Master, one of the Four Great Dharma Kings of the Heaven and Earth Sect, or even an outer elder of the Azure Lotus Sect, the lowest level at this level is the early stage of the Dao Platform realm.

Now he can barely face even a True Man of the Purple Mansion, let alone kill a True Man of the Dao Platform?

Are you kidding me?

"Therefore, you and I must join forces to achieve sufficient military merits in the war between the Great Xiang Empire and the Dark Night Netherworld Kingdom."

Zhu Xin smiled meaningfully again, "I'm asking you to join forces because of two reasons: first, for Xiao Nuomi, and second, because I see your potential."

"With our combined strength, obtaining the rewards of the second or even third level of the Demon God Devouring Heaven Technique will not be a problem in terms of time."

Chen Yuan's eyes narrowed as he overheard the crucial information: "The Great Xiang Empire and the Dark Night Nether Kingdom are about to go to war?"

"It's not a large-scale war, but rather a friction or conflict within a prefecture."

Zhu Xin nodded.

Chen Yuan understood.

If you want even greater military achievements, then the only way is to go to the Western Frontier Prefecture!

"Alright, let's leave it at that for now. You should go back and rest. Come back tomorrow, and I'll take you to the Divine Blood Division."

Zhu Xin spoke again, looking at Chen Yuan meaningfully, "The Divine Blood Division contains Demon Transformation Pills, Monster Transformation Pills, Evil Transformation Pills, and even Evil Spirit Transformation Pills. You are humans who have become Formless Guardians, so you have to take these pills to shed your human skin and not be able to be completely human."

"it is good."

Chen Yuan had no objection and nodded.

Now, he, Li Wei, and Nuomi, strictly speaking, are no longer entirely considered human beings.

Most of them possess demonic or evil cultivation techniques and bloodlines.

But... they must have a bottom line as human beings!

······

Human Desire Building.

Chen Yuan returned here with Nuomi, whose eyes were red and swollen, but the place was now empty.

After Zhou Ye and Cai Fu left the Yang family amidst the chaos, they also arranged for the women there to leave with the swordsman, Gan Pinghua.

"I hope they have a good future and can live peacefully."

Chen Yuan muttered something to himself, and after telling Li Wei to take Nuomi back to rest, he began to cultivate, absorbing all the resources he had obtained from the Yang family.

Silent all night.

The next day.

Chen Yuan, Li Wei, and Nuomi walked out of the Human Desire Building and onto the bustling Beishan Ninth Street.

"Demon Slayer..."

Someone saw Chen Yuan appear and gasped in surprise!

But soon he covered his mouth tightly, his eyes wide open, and he was drenched in sweat.

But once his words got out, the bustling street instantly fell silent.

Countless people looked over, and when they saw that it was Chen Yuan and the other two, they all widened their eyes and froze on the spot.

But soon, everyone seemed to realize what was happening and quickly hid in the streets and alleys, even in shops and restaurants, before slamming their doors shut.

The bustling street suddenly became deserted.

"???"

Chen Yuan and the other two were completely bewildered.

What's going on?

"Looks like we went too far last night, earning a formidable reputation, but this Demon Slayer..."

Li Wei murmured, pondering the words "Demon Slayer" with a sense of confusion.

Chen Yuan ignored all of that and saw that the breakfast shop selling steamed buns was still open, so he walked towards it.

"That scared me to death! Luckily we ran fast!"

"Yes, those were the White-Haired Demon Slayer, the Golden Demon, and that little devil!"

"I heard that they killed at least several thousand people last night, from the east of the city to the west, and then from the west back to the east, leaving a trail of blood all the way without even blinking an eye."

"You don't even blink? Won't your eyes get dry?"

"You son of a bitch, is this the time to focus on this issue?"

"That makes sense, but weren't they killing people at the Yang family's place? How did they end up killing people from the east side of the city to the west side?"

"I heard they were people who were hunting down the Yang family."

"I see!"

"Yes, I heard that at the Yang family mansion, that white-haired demon slaughtered the entire Yang family, laughing as he did so!"

"That golden demon was even more terrifying. He ripped out the intestines of the Yang family patriarch, then hung them around his neck, tied a knot, and strangled him to death!"

"And that little devil, don't let her small size fool you, she's got a huge belly, she ate over a thousand members of the Yang family!"

"My God, this is terrifying! Is this still a human? It's far more terrifying than any beast-like creature."

"He is no longer human. Although we are human, we can no longer treat them as human."

······

In the secluded corners, shops, restaurants, and through the cracks in doors and windows, many eyes watched Chen Yuan and his companions walk down the street, their expressions filled with fear and trepidation.

They whispered among themselves, and when they mentioned that the little devil had eaten over a thousand Yang family cultivators, it caused a stir of gasps.

Chen Yuan looked completely bewildered.

He then realized that, after a night of fermentation, the three of them had become infamous throughout the entire Tianshan County.

"Holy crap? What Golden Demon? Isn't that talking about me?"

Li Wei's eyes widened, and instantly many eyes withdrew from the cracks in the doors, slamming them shut with a bang.

Nuomi had a candied hawthorn in her mouth, blinked her eyes, then took out the candied hawthorn and stuck out her tongue.

"Look, that little devil is sticking out its tongue. I heard that's a sign that it's going to eat people."

Someone gasped in surprise, and many others trembled.

Sticky rice,"......."

Chen Yuan's lips twitched. What did he mean by laughing while killing someone?

Is it really that perverted?
