Chapter 95

This is the first matter, and Wen Liangji listened with a grave expression.

The concealment and hiding of the demon race is one thing, but colluding with humans is another!

If someone really did send Jiang Huiming there, how did he know about Huang Gui’s existence? Did he know that Huang Gui was a demon?

This matter indeed warrants a thorough investigation!

The second matter is even more significant.

Jiang Feng omitted the details before and after, and recounted the last few words Huang Gui said to Wen Liangji.

Wen Liangji’s face changed dramatically, and he grabbed Jiang Feng’s shoulder, asking, "Is what you said true? Did you hear it correctly?"

Jiang Feng said firmly, "I heard it clearly, not a single word was wrong!"

Wen Liangji could no longer stand still. He paced back and forth, saying, "So, there is a powerful being on the demon side trying to open a passage from the Great Wasteland directly to the Nine Heavens Continent? And he has already completed it basically?"

Jiang Feng said cautiously, "I think this time, the demon hole in Taicang City is just an experiment by the other side!"

Wen Liangji took a deep breath and, after a long silence, said, "What you said makes sense..."

The two looked at each other, and the same thought flashed through their minds.

If the demon race’s plot can be realized, then the "Chaos of the Nine Heavens" will reappear!

Back then, Zhong Qianfan single-handedly entered the Great Wasteland, closed the passage, and ended the Chaos of the Nine Heavens. But now, where can they find another genius like Zhong Qianfan?!

Wen Liangji was silent for a long time, and Jiang Feng asked, "Are you going to inform the state government about this matter?"

Wen Liangji slowly shook his head and said, "No... at least not now. Now, Taicang City is fully engaged in dealing with the demon hole incident. Lou Hanmo is not someone who can handle pressure. If this matter is made public now, it will only cause unnecessary panic. However, this matter must be handled quickly, and we must find out the truth as soon as possible!"

He gathered his thoughts and thanked Jiang Feng solemnly. Jiang Feng took the opportunity to inquire about the current situation in Taicang City.

The situation in Taicang City was worse than when he first arrived.

There were a total of twelve demon holes here, and the one he saw near Qian Shi Bridge was just one of them.

As the capital of Yushui Prefecture, Taicang City had two prefectural-level treasures and four county-level treasures, far fewer than the number of demon holes.

The city had nearly 500,000 residents, and the proportion of martial cultivators was the highest in the surrounding area, but it was only about 3,000.

Now, the demon holes had just opened, but they were not fully open yet. If all twelve demon holes started to produce demons, casualties would be inevitable, and Taicang might turn into a city of blood.

More terrifyingly, according to his and Wang Xueguan’s judgment, the demonic aura fluctuations from these twelve demon holes were much stronger than expected. This means that these weak demons are just the first batch, and stronger demons will follow!

There was no news of reinforcements, and powerful beings would not arrive for a while. As time passed, Taicang City would become increasingly dangerous.

Jiang Feng listened with a heavy heart and asked in a low voice, "What should we do now?"

Wen Liangji took a deep breath and said, "We can only prepare for battle with all our might!"

...

...

Jiang Feng returned to Qian Shi Bridge. The first wave of the demon attack had been temporarily repelled, but the demonic aura from the Changchuan River demon hole had not diminished; instead, it had become even stronger.

Jiang Feng met with Pingluan Shan and others and returned to the small courtyard.

This wave of the attack was not too difficult for the city defense forces. Pingluan Shan and the others followed Jiang Feng’s advice and did not intervene throughout.

After observing the city defense forces in battle, they were particularly excited, but on the way back, influenced by Jiang Feng, the atmosphere gradually became solemn.

As they walked past the martial practice ground of the small courtyard, Hua Su was standing with his back to them, bending over to inspect something.

Hearing them come in, he said without turning around, "Come and try these."

The group walked over and exclaimed in unison, "Treasure weapons!"

In front of Hua Su were three weapons. They were not dazzling but rather rusty, as if they had been stored for a long time. There were countless dark black marks on them, and Jiang Feng knew immediately that these were indelible traces of demon blood.

Though they looked unremarkable, anyone who looked at them could feel a cold, oppressive aura. It was a mix of killing intent and resentment, the result of countless lives!

Hua Su nodded, "Pingluan Shan, you already have a weapon. Jiang Feng, you three, each choose one."

Hong Cheng was so excited that he stuttered, "For, for us?!"

Teng Zhi was more alert, "Teacher Hua, does this mean... we will be using them in battle soon?"

Hua Su glanced at him, "What, after going out once, you still haven’t realized it?"

Pingluan Shan said, "But, I saw the city defense forces handle it quite easily, so there shouldn’t be any danger, right?"

Teng Zhi thought deeper and shook his head, "No, there are twelve demon holes in total, and we only saw one. If one requires such a large effort, how will the remaining eleven be handled?"

Jiang Feng nodded, "Teng Zhi is right. I also heard some news at the state government."

He recounted what Wen Liangji had said, and the three of them became increasingly shocked, while Hua Su remained calm.

Jiang Feng asked, "Teacher Hua, did you also sense these things?"

Hua Su nodded, "Wen Liangji is right. I went out and took a look earlier, and the situation of the demon holes is just as he described. This is just the first batch of demons, and the situation will get worse as time goes on. So..."

Teng Zhi lowered his head and picked up a large saber, saying, "I’ll take this one!"

Hong Cheng picked up a large meteor hammer and swung it, "This will be very satisfying to use."

The last item left for Jiang Feng was a pair of iron rings. They were heavy in his hand but fit perfectly on his fingers. He clenched his fist, and a bright flash of lightning appeared on the ground, followed by a thunderclap!

These iron rings were like they were custom-made for his Thunder Palm!

Hua Su’s gaze swept over them, and he said, "There are ten days left until the final exam. I don’t know what will happen in these ten days, but no matter what, you must be prepared for battle. In these ten days, we will start practicing real combat."

The four of them responded in unison, "Yes!"

...

...

Hua Su came from a poor background and had no connections, so he could not have obtained any profound martial techniques.

But he had spent decades in the Demon Suppression Army, rising from a small soldier to a commander of a thousand men, and his experience in fighting demons was astonishing.

After each person chose their weapon, he created a simple martial technique for everyone except Jiang Feng.

These martial techniques were just a combination of a few simple movements, not sophisticated but very practical.

Jiang Feng had the Thunder Palm, which, after being improved by the Heavenly Mechanism Cube, was simple and powerful, and Hua Su praised it highly.

When Hua Su taught the other three, Jiang Feng did not go off to practice alone but stood by and listened.

They were all very focused, and they did not notice that Jiang Feng’s eyes kept flashing with a faint golden light, as if his mind was working rapidly.

In the evening, Jiang Feng sat cross-legged in his room. A faint moonlight shone down from the roof, enveloping him in a halo.

The Heart Seed rotated rapidly, and the Heavenly Mechanism Cube floated up and down. The movements of Hua Su, Pingluan Shan, and the others were broken down into countless images, rotating around the cube, occasionally pausing, and data segments shooting into small blocks.

The rabbit lay on the bedside table, its bright red eyes watching him, and Bai Ying Ye Xiao stood beside it, also staring at him.

Suddenly, Ye Xiao floated in front of him, and his finger lightly touched Jiang Feng’s forehead. A point of golden light entered, accompanied by lightning, and quickly drilled into the Heavenly Mechanism Cube.

In an instant, the images around the Heavenly Mechanism Cube changed.

Demons, demons, and more demons.

A large number of demons appeared on the screen, fighting fiercely, sometimes tearing their opponents in half, and sometimes being cut to pieces.

The images kept flashing, and these demons were of various levels and races, with different abilities and combat methods, but they had some commonalities.

A large amount of demon combat data was integrated into the Heavenly Mechanism Cube, making it spin even faster.

The moonlight gradually shifted and disappeared. The night passed, and dawn arrived.

When the sun fully rose, Jiang Feng suddenly opened his eyes, a flash of light appearing in them, then returning to normal.

He pulled out a piece of paper, ground the ink, and began to write and draw quickly.

One action after another, with key points marked next to each action, and fine lines on the human figure indicating the flow of power.

One person held a large saber, one held a hammer, one held a willow-leaf light blade, and another had iron rings on both hands, with lightning flashing as they moved.

Jiang Feng spent the entire night, including improving the Thunder Palm, to refine the martial techniques for the four of them.

The data added by Ye Xiao contained a large amount of demon information, and the Heavenly Mechanism Cube made adjustments based on it.

Now, these four new martial techniques were all improved and strengthened, and the most critical point was that they were all designed specifically to combat demons.

In other words, if the enemy is a demon, their power will be even greater!

Soon, the thick stack of paper he had prepared was covered in ink, and the rabbit obediently hopped over and gently blew the ink dry.

Jiang Feng finished drawing the last action, put down his brush, and smiled.

His eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he said softly, "Come on, demons, let you see the power of humans!"

His gaze fell to the side, looking at the white shadow of Ye Xiao.

When the Heavenly Mechanism Cube was running, he was still aware of what was happening.

He remembered clearly the information added by Ye Xiao.

The white shadow was still bewildered, but Ye Xiao’s outline was clearer than before, and a faint trace of extraordinary handsomeness could be seen.

Jiang Feng reached out to touch Ye Xiao’s face, but his fingers passed through the white shadow. He murmured, "So, you also fought on the demon battlefield..."
