Chapter 310: Chapter 165: Divine Soul Transformation, First Slaughter of a Batch of Divine Realm

“Wind!”

As this thought arose in his mind, an invisible breeze immediately swept around him.

“Rain!”

The surrounding temperature suddenly dropped, countless vapor droplets condensed in the air, transforming into droplets of water.

Wei Fan took a sharp intake of breath, realizing his willpower had become terrifyingly formidable, capable of influencing the natural environment.

He wondered if his Divine Soul would one day grow to be like that of a Divine Spirit, omnipotent at a single thought.

“Wei Fan, get out of here, this place is collapsing!”

Long Xueyi’s voice woke Wei Fan, only to find the entire Secret Realm Space starting to tremble slightly. At the same time, the gray fog that had pervaded for years began to surge toward the stone tablet that recorded the Divine Silkworm Nine Transformations, which started to shatter, revealing a curtain of light.

“It’s coming!”

As if by teleportation, his body instantly appeared beside Long Xueyi.

“Amazing!”

This scene left Long Jianying gasping in astonishment.

Wei Fan was also deeply shaken, his willpower had become so mysterious that with just a thought, he appeared next to Long Xueyi.

The ultimate level of the Divine Silkworm Nine Transformations, transforming one into a being comparable to a Divine Spirit, apparently was not an exaggeration.

Without delving further, the three of them successively stepped into the light curtain.

The scene before them shifted, and they found themselves back in the previous valley. Behind them, the cliff face rumbled and collapsed into ruins amidst the roar.

“The Divine Skill has found its master, mission accomplished!”

Long Jianying gained a deep understanding and sighed with emotion, realizing that only someone like Wei Fan was worthy of becoming the master of the Divine Silkworm Nine Transformations.

He had trained for eight years just to reach the entry level, while Wei Fan had mastered the first transformation in just half a month; it turned out that this wasn’t his opportunity, he was merely helping the Divine Silkworm Nine Transformations find its master.

He glanced at Wei Fan beside him, whose aura had changed dramatically, no longer resembling the young man who entered half a month ago.

Standing casually, he exuded a natural Daoist charm, seemingly having merged with heaven and earth.

Of course, such things aren’t perceived by ordinary people.

In the eyes of ordinary people, Wei Fan was still Wei Fan, but to an expert like him, perception went beyond simple visual appearances, seeing deeper layers.

“Wei Fan, finally, you’ve come!”

Zhang Xianlong’s voice sounded as he leapt from a nearby rock.

Wei Fan had already sensed him; at this moment, his Spiritual Sense was incredulous, even without releasing the Power of Heart and Spirit to scan, everything around was within his perception.

With Zhang Xianlong being a familiar friend, he knew the moment he stepped out of the Secret Realm that an acquaintance was nearby.

“Greetings, Commander Long, you’ve finally appeared.”

Zhang Xianlong approached, cupping his hand to Long Jianying, showing no surprise; clearly, Huo Tianzheng informed him of Long Jianying’s presence.

Long Xueyi frowned, “Why are you here?”

It was normal for Huo Tianzheng to leave without patience to wait here, but having Zhang Xianlong specifically called to wait was unusual.

The timing of their exit after cultivating Divine Silkworm Nine Transformations was unpredictable, there was no need to have Zhang Xianlong wait here purposely.

Having Zhang Xianlong wait here, there must be significant matters to immediately inform upon their exit.

Zhang Xianlong glanced at Wei Fan, then solemnly said, “Something big happened, Elder Huo instructed me to tell you not to return to Su City for the time being.”

Not allowed to return to Su City?

Wei Fan raised an eyebrow, “What happened?”

Zhang Xianlong said, “Rumors are spreading in the Jianghu that you killed Fu Shizheng and acquired his Celestial Roc Body Cleansing Skill. A group of Grandmasters has rushed to Su City to kill you and seize the Celestial Roc Body Cleansing Skill!”

He wasn’t certain if the Celestial Roc Body Cleansing Skill was with Wei Fan, but on the day Wei Fan killed Fu Shizheng, he and Chen Qiming had handled the corpse together.

Long Xueyi’s face drastically changed, “Those damned Demon Fiends!”

In an instant, she knew it had to be the work of Demon Fiends because besides her and Wei Fan, only Demon Fiends knew Fu Shizheng betrayed the Human Race for the Celestial Roc Body Cleansing Skill.

Long Jianying glanced sideways at his granddaughter Long Xueyi, speaking gruffly, “You just gave yourself away; judging from your reaction, the Celestial Roc Body Cleansing Skill is indeed with Wei Fan. You girl, you even kept it from your grandfather when talking about Fu Shizheng.”

Even he felt the little padded jacket, as an armor, was leaking a bit.

When chatting with Long Xueyi about the status of the Demon Suppression Bureau in the Secret Realm, she mentioned Fu Shizheng’s betrayal but didn’t utter a word about the Celestial Roc Body Cleansing Skill.

Seeing Long Xueyi’s reaction now, he knew it wasn’t just any Jianghu rumor; the Celestial Roc Body Cleansing Skill was truly with Wei Fan.

“The Celestial Roc Body Cleansing Skill is really with you?” Zhang Xianlong widened his eyes.

Wei Fan nodded, “Indeed!”

Zhang Xianlong was dumbstruck, having originally thought it was Demon Fiends framing Wei Fan.

Long Xueyi looked apologetic, “It’s all my fault!”

Wei Fan shook his head, “No worries, Brother Zhang can be trusted. The Commander won’t harm me.”

Zhang Xianlong appeared touched.

Long Jianying shook his head, “That may not be certain; frankly, if it weren’t for your relationship with Xueyi, even I might not resist the temptation of the Celestial Roc Body Cleansing Skill.”

Long Xueyi’s beautiful eyes glared, “Grandfather… you still have the mind to joke?”

Long Jianying laughed heartily, casually finding a rock in the valley to sit on, beckoning Zhang Xianlong, “Come, tell this old man who are these reckless people coming to my territory to kill my men. Is Huo Tianzheng too old and feeble to kill anymore, actually making Wei Fan hide?”

Who was Long Jianying, the Commander of Su City? A bunch of people rushing to his turf to kill his men was an affront to his authority.

In the past, when he was around, Su City was peaceful; it was simply because he hadn’t shown himself in years that Su City had grown increasingly chaotic.

Although his expression remained calm, internally, he was seething with murderous intent. In the Secret Realm for eight years, he hadn’t been merely meditating peacefully.

Wei Fan and Long Xueyi also found stones to sit on, all three eyes turned towards Zhang Xianlong.

Zhang Xianlong shook his head, “Elder Huo is also helpless…”

He found a stone to sit on as well, “Too many experts came, from Prisoner Dragon Stronghold, Divine Sword Sect, Celestial Eagle Castle, Moonlight Hall, Purple Smoke Pavilion, Blood Cloud Sect…”

Zhang Xianlong casually counted seven or eight top-tier forces, including both Orthodox Sects and Demonic Sects.

Besides the top forces, there were even more first-tier forces and Jianghu Wanderers, too many for him to count.

Long Jianying remained impassive, “Any Martial Venerable present?”

Zhang Xianlong paused, shaking his head, “None found so far!”

“Without a Martial Venerable, such rabble dares come to kill my people? Huo Tianzheng is equally useless, if there’s no Martial Venerable, just kill them one by one; if mass fighting isn’t feasible, can’t he sneak attack at night?

If truly ineffective, just accuse them of colluding with Demon Fiends, dispatch a large army to annihilate them, and if overwhelmed, seek Pei Shinan; it’s such a simple solution he won’t even consider.”

Zhang Xianlong listened, rendered speechless, wondering if this was a Commander of the Demon Suppression Bureau or a mere bandit.

Wei Fan probably learned it from him; though this maneuver is executed even more skillfully by Wei Fan.

“The Garrison Commander of the Demon Suppression Bureau Headquarters ordered that Wei Fan, being a Demon Hunter, doesn’t belong to the Demon Suppression Bureau. Therefore, Su City Commander and Commander cannot interfere in Wei Fan’s matters.”

He relayed Zhang Juzheng’s directive.

“Alright!”

Long Jianying finally showed anger on his face, “This old scoundrel Zhang Juzheng; I haven’t settled the score with him for his previous disregard for Su City, and now he pulls this, treating me like a clay figure without fire.”

Long Xueyi too was filled with murderous intent, “Does this beast deserve to be a Garrison Commander, as Wei Fan saved millions of lives in Su City, he now kicks him while he’s down.”

She urgently turned to Long Jianying, “Grandfather, what should we do?”

She understood Wei Fan was in trouble; not allowing the Demon Suppression Bureau to intervene and severing Wei Fan from the Bureau meant anyone could kill Wei Fan without fearing repercussions.

This move was akin to cutting the grass beneath the pot!

Even if they acted on personal relations or disobeyed orders to aid Wei Fan with Su City’s power, it wouldn’t matter because they no longer represented the Great Victory Dynasty’s Demon Suppression Bureau, lacking deterrent power.

They could defy the Commander for Wei Fan, but if they were killed, it wouldn’t involve the Bureau.

Without the Bureau’s identity, Jianghu people wouldn’t fear Huo Tianzheng or Long Jianying; lacking power, they’d still dare to kill them.

At this moment, even Long Jianying felt a headache, as he didn’t believe he alone could overturn such top-tier forces.

The Divine Realm held no fear, but should multiple Martial Venerables appear, he couldn’t protect Wei Fan.

“But I can’t swallow this disrespect!”

Long Jianying, full of murderous spirit, said, “Even if I can’t withstand Martial Venerables, I’ll slay a batch of those in the Divine Realm to vent first, then hide; what do you think?”

He gazed at Wei Fan!
