Easy Way of Cultivation: Power Harvesting

Pei Shinan still bore a mocking expression on his face: "He dares to order me? I, Pei Shinan, will act as I see fit, and nobody can boss me around."

He then showed a teasing expression: "You don’t know yet, do you? Wei Fan was the one who took out Fang Weimin and his group. Now, who do you plan to kill for revenge in Su City? Do you really think I don’t know you want to snatch the Celestial Roc Body Cleansing Skill?"

Fang Weimin and the others were killed by Wei Fan?

Qi Zhicun displayed disbelief: "That’s impossible, do you mean Wei Fan is still alive?"

Fang Weimin had achieved Divine Realm Perfection, held High-Level Divine Soldiers, and was accompanied by two Late Divine Realm peers—what gave Wei Fan the right to kill them?

Moreover, in Su City, it was not only Fang Weimin and his group; there were elders from top-tier forces like the Prisoner Dragon Stronghold and Moonlight Hall, how could they possibly let Wei Fan go?

Pei Shinan shook his head: "Nothing is impossible, go back, soon enough you’ll find out how Fang Weimin and the others died, don’t force me to fight you."

In fact, when he heard about Wei Fan single-handedly exterminating twenty Divine Realm entities, he too found it absurd, but he knew Huo Tianzheng wouldn’t joke around when he had him stop Qi Zhicun.

Now he wasn’t particularly eager to deal with Qi Zhicun, he just wanted to wait until Qi Zhicun learned that Wei Fan was killing twenty Divine Realm participants by himself, and endured his days filled with anxiety, only to have Wei Fan personally come to finish Qi Zhicun off.

Qi Zhicun ultimately returned to Divine Sword Sect, understanding that Pei Shinan was serious, and if he insisted on heading to Su City, Pei Shinan would indeed engage him in battle.

Moreover, judging by the situation, Wei Fan seemed unscathed, otherwise with Pei Shinan’s arrogance, he wouldn’t be leisurely chatting here, he’d have rushed to Su City to aid Wei Fan.

Fuming, he returned to Divine Sword Sect, recalling Pei Shinan’s final dead-eyed gaze, he immediately dispatched ordinary disciples to Su City to investigate.

Meanwhile, at Eagle’s Woe Cliff!

Wei Fan and his peers exchanged pleasantries, Long Jianying revealed his true identity.

Originally wishing to forcefully announce his return, he now could only casually inform Yue Chengwu and Hong Shixian, the two new Commanders, that he was Long Jianying.

"Salute, Commander!"

The Three Great Commanders, Situ Feng along with You Qingfeng cupped their hands.

Long Jianying nodded lightly, first looking at Yue Chengwu: "How’s your grandfather’s health?"

Yue Chengwu nodded: "Thank you for your concern, Commander, my grandfather is well!"

Their families were long-associated; Long Jianying had known Yue Chengwu for ages.

Glad to hear his old friend was well, he turned to You Qingfeng: "After you return, tell your master that Long Jianying has returned, let him act bolder in the future, rather than timidly; our people have been bullied like this, he didn’t dare make a peep. If he doesn’t know how to be a General, let me become one instead!"

"..."

Yue Chengwu and Hong Shixian’s eyelids twitched madly, for those unaware, they might think Long Jianying was the General of Tongzhou.

Advising the General on actions, he’s indeed audacious.

Saying he can’t be a General let him do it, being a General of one province isn’t for everyone, without Martial Venerable strength, you wouldn’t be able to manage it.

"I will convey your message to my master!"

You Qingfeng cupped his hands, aware his master Pei Shinan hadn’t handled matters regarding Su City and Wei Fan well.

Given Long Jianying’s arrogance, it’s abnormal to lack a temper.

Of course, Long Jianying had the means to be so; despite being Pei Shinan’s superior, they’ve been comrades battling Demon Fiends in Tongzhou for centuries, so throwing a few jabs at Pei Shinan, he as a junior could only listen.

"He must have become Martial Venerable!"

You Qingfeng had a hunch, Long Jianying is arrogant but not reckless; daring to encourage Pei Shinan to act boldly implies becoming Martial Venerable.

He wasn’t surprised; Master Pei Shinan speculated why Long Jianying hadn’t appeared; likely retreating for Martial Venerable realm breakthrough, returning now let Wei Fan be high-profile surely meant he became Martial Venerable.

Long Jianying turned, gazing at Liu Jingxiang clad in Inspector attire in the distance: "Get over here, or do I need to personally come visit you?"

"Dare not!"

Long Jianying unexpectedly appeared!

Liu Jingxiang’s expression changed slightly, hurriedly flew over: "Salute, Commander sir."

Although he was an Inspector sent from the Capital City, his rank was just equal to a Commander.

"Slap!"

Long Jianying flipped his hand delivering a slap on Liu Jingxiang’s face: "This slap, pass it to Zhang Juzheng, Long Jianying won’t forget the grudge against Su City."

"..."

Liu Jingxiang’s face flushed red, utterly speechless.

He knew without the Inspector identity, Long Jianying might indeed kill him; back when he emerged to announce the order, it was sinister, wanting the world to know the Demon Suppression Bureau wasn’t protecting Wei Fan.

Wei Fan coldly stared at Liu Jingxiang: "Also inform Zhang Juzheng, I will visit him sooner or later!"

Though he didn’t act, his words thoroughly shocked Liu Jingxiang.

No matter how dissatisfied Long Jianying was, he was still the Commander of the Demon Suppression Bureau; his life token was held by the court, he couldn’t revolt.

But Wei Fan, being a Demon Hunter, didn’t have such reservations as Long Jianying.

To declare a visit to Zhang Juzheng meant he would fulfill it with the capability.

"Trouble, a Martial Venerable arrived!"

Huo Tianzheng’s voice suddenly echoed.

At this moment Wei Fan felt the Power of Heaven and Earth wavering, Spiritual Sense warning him.

Turning his gaze afar, the firmament seemed to have a Great Sun in motion; brilliant golden light formed a massive halo, weaving two colors, like an additional sun in the sky.

In the center of the golden light was a figure seemingly cast from gold, appearing sacred and mighty.

The sole element marring the sanctity was the dense, almost tangible Evil Qi.

"Is that Martial Venerable!"

Wei Fan murmured, his first time seeing a Martial Venerable powerhouse; aside from other elements, its mere appearance was visually staggering, akin to an immortal or deity.

The panel began flickering:

[Blood Venerable: Early-stage Martial Venerable, Sect Leader of Blood Cloud Sect, Practices on Humans, countless murders]

[Slay and obtain 20,000 years ordinary power, 200 years spirit soul power]

"A Martial Venerable powerhouse only drops two hundred years spirit soul power."

Wei Fan’s eyes twitched, the Evil Qi, turned out to be the Blood Cloud Sect’s Sect Leader.

"Blood Venerable of Blood Cloud Sect, why’s this fiend appearing."

You Qingfeng’s face drastically changed, recognizing the identity.

"He should be coming for Wei Fan, you all retreat!"

Huo Tianzheng’s eyes revealed solemnity, a Martial Venerable powerhouse finally emerged.

He knew the trouble with Celestial Roc Body Cleansing Skill wouldn’t resolve so easily, regardless of Wei Fan wiping out all Divine Realm Martial Sect members, a Martial Venerable powerhouse would appear.

Prior, these martial artist powerhouses hadn’t appeared likely owing to Wei Fan staying hidden.

Plus, possessing Martial Venerable arrogance meant whoever killed Wei Fan and seized Celestial Roc Body Cleansing Skill, they’d be able to snatch it.

"Exercise caution, or summon my master for aid!"

You Qingfeng along with Yue Chengwu and others withdrew.

Long Jianying’s expression invigorated, showing eagerness: "No need, this fiend is merely a Two-Colored Golden Body."

Initially intending to showcase Martial Venerable cultivation through Wei Fan’s matters, amazed the world, yet Wei Fan slaughtered all Divine Realms, wasting his opportunity.

Now Blood Venerable arrived, perfect for asserting dominance.

"Commander, your weapon!"

Situ Feng retreated, tossing the Eagle Sword over, Long Jianying caught it, caressing the sword.

"Martial Venerable arrived yet didn’t flee, do they intend to clash with Martial Venerable, good thing Blood Venerable kills them all."

Liu Jingxiang harbored uncertainty.

Blood Venerable attacked, Long Jianying, Huo Tianzheng, and Wei Fan showed no intention to flee, remaining in place.

This action filled Liu Jingxiang with frenzied delight, perhaps Wei Fan assumed by killing several Divine Realms, he could engage a Martial Venerable.

Cross-boundary combat?

Meeting stringent conditions, occasionally Celestial Martial Artist battling Divine Realm Martial Sect situations occur, but never Divine Realm crossing boundaries to confront Martial Venerables.

Long Jianying raised an eyebrow, gaze sweeping over Wei Fan and Huo Tianzheng remaining in place: "How, do you two wish to spar with Martial Venerable?"
