Chapter 527

Leaving the branch residence of the Tai Nan Chamber of Commerce in Dongying City, Su Fan gazed into the distance, then returned to his cave dwelling and gave instructions to Lin Wei and the others. At the same time, he also asked Jinguang to help look after Lin Wei and the others.

He then left Dongying City. Nowadays, some of the teleportation arrays in the northern part of the Wu Guo are almost unusable, so he naturally could not use them.

Therefore, if he wanted to return to the Zheng Kingdom, he could only rely on flying, but he had enough confidence in his own strength and was not afraid of anything.

Tens of millions of distance, if placed in later generations, would probably take a very long time, but Su Fan was piloting a flying shuttle, and the speed was extremely fast.

The Zheng Kingdom is located in the north of the Wu Guo, so Su Fan passed through many prefectures and counties in the northern part of the Wu Guo along the way.

Because the great war between the righteous and demonic paths is happening, many places in the northern prefectures and counties have begun to impose martial law.

Su Fan saw that in many markets, they had all activated their great arrays.

"Hmm!"

"Courting death!"

Flying at full speed along the way, Su Fan suddenly discovered that demonic energy was soaring into the sky ahead, forming large swaths of demonic clouds, and at the same time, wailing sounds resounded through the sky.

A sweep of his divine sense revealed that not far away, a mortal town had almost turned into a sea of blood.

Millions of mortals were constantly being slaughtered and harvested.

Intermingled with it was the cackling laughter of those demonic souls.

Su Fan looked on with a livid face at the several Foundation Establishment demonic cultivators below, while not far away, a spirit vein array was activated.

Clearly, there was a cultivation family in this mortal town, but this cultivation family had abandoned the mortal town outside.

The cultivators originally in the town were also killed by the several Foundation Establishment demonic cultivators below, and the array was broken.

The mortals were being slaughtered.

Su Fan could still feel the flowing light leaking from the array in the town; clearly, the array had not been broken for long, and these demonic cultivators had slaughtered over a million mortals.

The purpose was to sacrifice and refine that Demonic Cloud Banner; using mortal blood and souls to refine demonic artifacts is the thing demonic cultivators love to do most.

At this moment, having absorbed the blood and souls of a million mortals, ghost energy was soaring in this Demonic Cloud Banner, and one wailing soul after another was constantly hissing, as if they were crying for help.

Or perhaps they were accusing the incompetence of those cultivators.

"Haha! Almost there."

"Senior brother, this Demonic Cloud Banner of yours is about to advance."

"Not bad, sacrifice another million mortals, and this Demonic Cloud Banner can be promoted to a third-tier artifact. With its power, I can also ascend to the Purple Mansion in one fell swoop."

That Foundation Establishment ninth-layer demonic cultivator elder laughed bloodthirstily, his face also filled with a bit of longing.

However, in the next second, a streak of fire suddenly appeared in the sky.

"What?"

"Be careful!"

The scorching flames transformed into a fire dragon, illuminating half the sky.

"Not good!"

This Foundation Establishment ninth-layer demonic cultivator felt the scorching crisis within the flames; his expression changed wildly, and he spat out a large amount of blood, spraying it into the Demonic Cloud Banner.

His hands were also constantly forming seals, and he roared: "Demonic Cloud Overturning Heaven!"

In an instant, the Demonic Cloud Banner released seemingly boundless demonic energy, as well as endless wronged souls, rushing toward the flames, wanting to annihilate this fire dragon.

Sizzle!

However, this fire dragon seemed like a divine dragon, indestructible and burning everything; these demonic clouds, upon touching the fire dragon, were instantly calcined, emitting a sizzling sound.

The fire dragon soared within these demonic clouds.

Then it opened its mouth and spat, and a large amount of flames also covered this patch of dark clouds.

"Ah!"

The true flames of the fire dragon impacted the main body of the Demonic Cloud Banner, instantly burning a large hole in it.

The Demonic Cloud Banner was damaged, and the owner of this Demonic Cloud Banner was naturally damaged as well; the backlash within his body made his face turn pale.

However, before he could react, the fire dragon killed its way toward him, and with its scorching sharp claws, it grabbed him directly in mid-air.

Crack!

With a tragic sound, he couldn't even let out a scream before he was directly shattered, and his primordial spirit was also burned to nothing.

The other several demonic cultivators, seeing this, were so frightened that their souls trembled, and they all transformed into blood to escape.

Unfortunately, the fire dragon above did not give them a chance at all, and several fireballs burned them into ashes.

"Dust to dust! Earth to earth!"

Su Fan stood above the town, looking at the tragic state of the town below with an unreadable expression. With a wave of his large hand, he also burned those several demonic artifacts; the demonic energy inside was instantly burned away by the scorching flames along with those remnant souls.

Those remnant souls had been sacrificed and refined by the demonic cultivators into wronged souls; if he didn't burn them, they would also harm people, so Su Fan felt no pity.

And just at this moment, several streaks of red light darted out from the spirit vein next to the town.

"Senior!"

However, Su Fan had no time to pay attention to these people; after killing the demonic cultivators and burning the demonic clouds, Su Fan flew away directly.

The mortal town below was clearly that of this cultivation family, yet in the face of demonic cultivators, these cultivators had abandoned the mortal town.

This made Su Fan extremely ashamed.

Perhaps these people's actions were not a problem; for the sake of self-preservation, this Foundation Establishment family only had four Foundation Establishment cultivators, and even if they came out, they could not protect the mortal town.

But they just watched helplessly as these mortals were slaughtered by the demonic cultivators; at least in the Su family, this would be impossible.

When the Su family was weak, they dared to fight against demonic cultivators, let alone this cultivation family, which had only four Foundation Establishment cultivators, but over three hundred Qi Refining cultivators.

If they had united, they actually had the possibility of threatening those few demonic cultivators, but for the sake of saving their lives, they ultimately chose to turn a blind eye; this kind of behavior was naturally not liked by Su Fan.

However, he would not kill these people just because of this.

This is the norm in the cultivation world: selfish and self-interested. There are cultivators willing to shed their hot blood for mortals, and there are also those as timid as mice.

Su Fan could not change it, nor did he think about it; saving the mortals below was just his human conscience and bottom line.

In reality, if those had been several Nascent Soul demonic cultivators earlier, he estimated he would have been the same as these people, sitting by and doing nothing.

So in the end, they were just about the same kind of people.

Since that was the case, how could he take action to destroy these people? At most, he just didn't like them.

Transforming into a rainbow and leaving, along this way, he encountered quite a few demonic cultivators.

Clearly, although the coalition of the Yuanding Sect had blocked most of the demonic cultivators of the Qingshui Sect inside the Qingshui Sect's sect gate.

There were still quite a few who slipped through the net, or perhaps these were demonic cultivators who had been lurking in the Wu Guo all along.

Demonic cultivators are indeed few, but that doesn't mean there are none; didn't their Su family encounter them in the Zheng Kingdom before?

Most demonic cultivators are like rats; under normal circumstances, they will hide and restrain their own aura.

For a long time, they have disguised themselves as loose cultivators, and some have even hidden within families and sects.

If they don't transform, I'm afraid no one will know.

Of course, those who possess demon-detecting arrays are another matter, but this kind of array is not something that ordinary families and sects can possess.

Flying all the way, Su Fan encountered quite a few demonic cultivators, all of whom were dealt with by him casually.
