"Heh..."
For the first ti, Fang Yuan, who had been expressionless, finally revealed a slight smile.
Of course, he cared about the people in this city; they were his citizens. Moreover, after saving them, he could earn a hefty amount of good karma points. Why not take advantage of the situation?
If he were to randomly kill people without reason, that wouldn't be decisive action but would make him a demon disguised in human skin.
In the end, he had successfully forced Ruan Minghui to break through to beco a master, and Fang Yuan had earned a significant difference between the seventh realm and the master level.
As for the performance of Ruan Minghui's strength, Fang Yuan felt that he even surpassed the person nad Simon. It had caused him so trouble, and it was indeed surprising—he had been deceived by soone who had played the role of a pig to eat the tiger.
However, what really surprised Fang Yuan was Ruan Minghui's martial arts path. He had sohow managed to combine sword intent with plague, which even Fang Yuan, as a modern man, found quite intriguing.
As for the so-called Plague God ntioned by Ruan Minghui... Anyone capable of controlling such sinister thods certainly wasn't sothing like the Tengu God.
He was almost at the peak of martial arts, yet the secrets of the world seed to grow even more nurous.
Forget it, let's not think about these things for now. Having nearly cleared out the invaders in Hanhai Province, it was ti to focus on cultivating the Crimson Corruption technique.
Once he succeeded in condensing it, he would possess three bodies of the Dao... and would be able to compete with the Yan Wen Emperor.
As this thought crossed his mind, Fang Yuan descended from the sky and landed back at the Town Protector's office.
In the courtyard of the Town Protector's office, Ruan Ling staggered to her feet. A confused expression filled her beautiful face, and she could only vaguely recall that her father had forced his breakthrough to beco a master in order to save her, engaging in a final battle with Fang Yuan.
The battle... who won?
As she thought, she saw a familiar body not far ahead.
The body was unmistakable—it was her father, Ruan Minghui, whose spine had been ripped out... A bitter smile appeared on Ruan Ling's face. The result was already clear.
Her father was dead... and with her own strength, she naturally wouldn't survive either.
No... wait a minute...
A bold idea suddenly erged in Ruan Ling's mind. If she could execute this idea, maybe she would still have a chance to live!
Without further hesitation, Ruan Ling's face twisted into a cruel expression as she rushed to her father's body. With her mouth wide open, she devoured his remains!
Just as Fang Yuan, who had just landed, witnessed a rather bizarre scene.
She... was devouring her own father's corpse?!
After completing this, Ruan Ling noticed Fang Yuan and imdiately rushed toward him!
But rather than attacking, she fell to her knees in front of him, prostrating herself and crying, "Sir... I am willing to surrender to the Yan Kingdom!"
"My martial arts talent allows to devour all things and convert them into my own strength!"
"You must have already experienced my father's strength. Although it is nowhere near as strong as yours, he was still a powerful figure!"
"Now, I have also mastered my father's Plague Sword. If you accept , I swear that I will be a great general in your service!"
Ruan Ling spoke urgently, her voice trembling. She knew her life was in Fang Yuan's hands.
"Is that so..." The powerful figure chuckled softly. "You devoured your father's body just to show your value?"
"Such a good dog. Very well... I accept you."
Upon hearing this, Ruan Ling's body trembled. She couldn't suppress her excitent. He had accepted her! She was saved!
Even though she hadn't attached herself to Simon, she had aligned with a stronger general from the Yan Kingdom!
She would no longer lack resources to consu. Her path of cultivation would surely be smooth from now on!
Father, the Qu Yue Kingdom... these things no longer mattered. As long as she could rise to prominence!
But just as this thought erged in Ruan Ling's mind, a bolt of lightning struck her from the sky, sending shards of stone flying everywhere!
[Slaying the seventh realm invader, Good Karma 50,000!]
"If you had co at with a vengeful heart, I would have at least admired your resolve. But to survive, you would even devour your own father? I can't have soone like you as my subordinate..."
Fang Yuan's slow and deliberate voice echoed. Although Ruan Minghui was a good father, his daughter... was really beyond words.
Nevertheless, no matter what, he couldn't show rcy to these invaders.
Ruan Minghui and his daughter were swiftly dealt with. Fang Yuan waved his sleeve and walked toward the soldiers of the Town Protector's office.
Qi Yuan and the others were curled up on the ground, their faces pale with terror, gazing at the young figure before them. It felt like their throats were stuffed with cotton.
The experience of being on the brink of death earlier was likely sothing they would rember for the rest of their lives. Their bones had transford into sword blades, only to return to normal in an instant.
Even their detached eyeballs had regrown, as if the hellish scene had been nothing more than a dream.
Qi Yuan and the others knew very well that their survival was all thanks to Fang Yuan, whose strength had beco almost legendary in martial arts!
He was like a bodhisattva in his heart, yet his actions were as decisive as thunder!
It was Qi Yuan, with his quick mind, who had already managed to crawl toward Fang Yuan, constantly bowing his head. "Thank you, Sir, for saving our lives! Thank you for saving our lives!"
Fang Yuan's gaze lingered over Qi Yuan and the others, deep in thought... He was contemplating whether or not to kill these people.
Undoubtedly, they were traitors who wavered in loyalty. If the Yan Kingdom, controlled by the Yan Wen Emperor, wasn't worth their allegiance, and they betrayed their country for self-preservation, Fang Yuan didn't think it was a huge mistake.
However, actively helping invaders spread the plague was an entirely different matter.
At the mont, Hanhai Province had suffered greatly, and the Town Protector's office had been severely damaged. Fang Yuan needed martial artists to help him restore order here.
Now was the ti to use them. He would deal with their treasonous behavior later... use them first, then kill them.
With this thought in mind, Fang Yuan concealed his killing intent and raised the Town Protector's seal in front of Qi Yuan. "I am the Town Protector's official, Fang Yuan. I've co here today to drive out the invaders."
"You must imdiately mobilize and send people to various states to prepare for the re-establishnt of Hanhai Province."
"Could it be... that this person is the Town Protector?" Qi Yuan thought. It's no wonder he's so powerful. But when did the Yan Kingdom have such a Town Protector?
Although Qi Yuan was puzzled inside, he didn't show it. Instead, he replied, "But Sir, the harm in Hanhai Province isn't just from the Qu Yue Kingdom, but also from Baekje, He Sang, and even a certain invader who crossed the sea..."
"I know." Fang Yuan interrupted him. "They've all been killed by ."
A simple sentence like this, when it fell upon Qi Yuan and the others, was like a stormy wave crashing into their hearts!
They're all dead?!
That includes a master and a group of seventh realm martial artists?!
How strong must this Lord Fang be?
"Why are you still standing there? Get moving." Before Qi Yuan could process this information, Fang Yuan's voice echoed again, carrying an air of supre authority.
"If you don't do well, bring your heads to see ."
