Chapter 306 - 145: Divine Dragon True Origin, Demon and Demon Power

Chapter 306: Chapter 145: Divine Dragon True Origin, Demon and Demon Power

’Less than 400,000 Enhancement Points left... I’ll have to work harder for the next wave.’

The thought flashed through Fang Xing’s mind as he looked at the panel.

He immediately got up and stepped out of the room.

...

「A few days passed in a flash.」

For the past few days, Fang Xing had mostly stayed within the Demon Suppression Mansion.

Aside from a visit from Wei Qing, the other three Marshals had also come to see him at some point.

It was mostly simple small talk; nothing particularly noteworthy happened.

After a few days of rest, Fang Xing finally received his assignment from Hong Miaojin.

In the main hall of the Commander-in-Chief’s Residence, Hong Miaojin handed him a file.

After reading the file, Fang Xing had a clear understanding of the situation.

Just as he had predicted, Hong Miaojin’s plan was to start with a single county.

In this county, there were three targets among the Demons and Monsters.

One Demon King and two Top-Notch Great Demons!

His goal was to eliminate these Demons and Monsters.

To cleanse the County Town.

"So, feeling any pressure?" Hong Miaojin asked, looking at Fang Xing.

Fang Xing put away the file and looked at Hong Miaojin. "Rest assured, Commander. I will complete it as soon as possible."

Hearing this, a satisfied expression appeared on Hong Miaojin’s face.

"This is just the public information. There may be other factors you’ll need to investigate on your own."

Fang Xing nodded.

The collected intelligence couldn’t possibly be complete. After all, the Observatory’s power in a place like Qing Province was too weak.

The Observatory’s internal ranks had even been infiltrated. In a situation like this, most things would depend on what he found on the ground.

"Be careful. Even if you can’t complete the mission, your top priority is to ensure your own safety."

Fang Xing nodded and immediately stood up. "Please rest assured, Commander."

"Get moving."

Hong Miaojin said coolly.

Fang Xing clasped his hands in a salute and then turned to leave.

...

After leaving the Commander-in-Chief’s Residence, Fang Xing walked directly out of the Observatory.

Just as he reached the entrance of the Observatory, he ran into someone.

Wei Qing!

"Lord Fang." Wei Qing approached with a smile as he saw Fang Xing’s figure.

"Are you heading out, my lord?"

Wei Qing watched him.

Fang Xing’s expression was calm. "Just going for a stroll. It’s uncomfortable being cooped up all the time. I want to see the sights of Qing Province City."

"Do you need an escort, my lord?"

Wei Qing asked with a broad smile.

"No need. I’m just taking a casual walk." With that, Fang Xing stepped out of the Observatory.

Watching Fang Xing’s departing figure, Wei Qing pondered for a moment before turning and leaving as well.

’There really are a lot of spies!’

The moment he stepped out of the Observatory, Fang Xing could feel pairs of eyes secretly watching him.

His Primordial Spirit Power made their presence perfectly clear.

However, Fang Xing didn’t alert the snakes in the grass. He maintained a composed demeanor and headed toward the city outskirts.

After he left Qing Province City, several figures tailed him from a distance.

Fang Xing remained impassive. Gang Qi enveloped him, and in the next second, his figure vanished as if into thin air, leaving no trace.

"Where did he go?"

"How did he suddenly disappear?"

Not far away, the figures rubbed their eyes, staring at the spot where Fang Xing had just been.

’Gone in the blink of an eye...’

’What kind of bizarre Lightweight Skill is that?!’

The men stood stunned for a moment. After coming to their senses, they turned back toward the city.

They had already lost their target, so there was no point in continuing the pursuit.

At that moment, Fang Xing was already over a hundred li away from Qing Province City.

Standing on a mountaintop, he gazed back toward Qing Province City. Shaking off those small fry was nothing for him to brag about.

After breaking through to the True Gang realm, his Zongyi Ascension Step had reached a new level.

By achieving Body Merging with Heaven and Earth, a single step at his limit could cover a distance of a hundred li!

Never mind a few ordinary Martial Artists; even another True Gang Martial Artist couldn’t keep up with his speed.

When it came to escaping, he could get away even from a True Gang Great Perfection expert, or even someone at the True Essence realm.

It was the ultimate life-saving Body Technique!

In terms of Lightweight Skill proficiency, he was unparalleled in the region!

"South County..."

After determining his direction, Fang Xing didn’t rest, continuing forward at a steady pace.

He crossed mountains and rivers as if they were flat ground.

By sunset, Fang Xing had arrived at his destination.

Yunling County!

This was a County Town surrounded by large mountains.

In the lands of the Southern Border, most County Towns were enveloped by mountains.

With the Hundred Thousand Mountains crisscrossing the land, at least ninety-eight percent of the County Towns were situated between the various ranges.

Yunling was a County Town under the jurisdiction of South County.

Outside the town, Fang Xing’s eyes swept over the County Town from above.

The fires of the mortal world lingered over the County Town, but what was even more abundant was Evil Qi.

The Demonic Qi blanketing Yunling almost overwhelmed the fires of the mortal world.

Such a phenomenon would be impossible in other provinces, but in the Southern Border, it had practically become the norm.

After a glance at Yunling County Town, Fang Xing averted his gaze and strode into the town.

As sunset approached, the small merchants and vendors in the County Town had all but vanished.

Not far away, a group of Constables appeared in his sight.

Wherever the Constables passed, the surrounding common folk feared them like tigers, either giving them a wide berth or shutting their doors tightly.

In the eyes of ordinary people, the Court’s Constables seemed even more terrifying than Demons and Monsters.

’This atmosphere is truly awful...’

Fang Xing sighed.

This scene was not an isolated incident. Collusion between officials and Demons and Monsters had also become commonplace.

"Slaying Demons and Monsters" was nothing more than an empty slogan here.

Watching the group of Constables, Fang Xing paid them no mind. They weren’t worthy of his attention.

After passing through several streets and alleys, Fang Xing arrived at the County Magistrate’s Mansion.

He brazenly scanned with his Primordial Spirit, taking in the entire situation within the mansion.

He executed a Void Step, and in the next instant, he appeared like a phantom in one of the mansion’s courtyards.

Stepping into the Inner Hall of the courtyard, he saw two figures discussing something.
