Eastern: I love doing good things-Chapter 141 : This is simply poverty alleviation!

Fang Yuan stepped into the hall and saw a middle-aged man with a scholarly appearance sitting at the main seat, his expression calm.

There was no one else in the hall except for him.

"You say you are the new governor of Jianghai Prefecture?" Jiang Tao asked first.

"Yes."

"Do you have any proof?"

"Of course." Fang Yuan took out the waist token representing the title of the Chongwu Marquis and tossed it to him.

Jiang Tao took it, carefully examined it, and confirmed it was not a counterfeit.

Is he really the new governor of Jianghai Prefecture?

Jiang Tao felt puzzled inside. What was the Chongwu Marquis thinking, entrusting an entire prefecture to such a young man?

Even if the other party had extraordinary martial talent, it would still take time for him to grow!

Even if this youth had been cultivating from the womb, it had only been a dozen years at most. What could one achieve in just a dozen years of cultivation?

Jiang Tao couldn't be bothered to ponder the Chongwu Marquis' mental state and simply said, "I've already sent two deputy generals to assist Jianghai Prefecture. You didn't encounter them on the way here?"

As a governor of a prefecture, if you're not guarding your own land and instead come to my military office, it's clear that you're here seeking help.

However, there's no extra manpower to give; Jiang Tao believed he had already provided Jianghai Prefecture with the most help possible. If that still wasn't enough to protect the region, then he would have no choice but to admit his own incompetence.

"I know." Fang Yuan nodded. "Thank you very much, General, for your help. The demons invading Jianghai Prefecture have already been dealt with."

"Dealt with?" Jiang Tao was initially surprised, then quickly smiled.

This was truly great news because it meant that the Tiger Demon and Crab Demon under the Iron-Horned Demon King were no longer around.

The pressure was somewhat relieved, but why hadn't Hou Yuntao and the others sent any news yet?

"Since they've already been dealt with, then why has Lord Fang come here this time?" Jiang Tao asked, suppressing his curiosity.

"As the saying goes, a drop of water should be repaid with a fountain of water," Fang Yuan explained.

"I've come to cooperate with you, General, to eliminate all the demons within Yongnan Province."

Hearing this, Jiang Tao chuckled lightly and then shook his head. "There's no need, Lord Fang. You should first focus on your Jianghai Prefecture. Your place has a large population, and just because there are no demons now doesn't mean there won't be any in the future."

Sure enough, the youth had an innocent, somewhat naive mindset. His words were bold, but Jiang Tao couldn't believe that simply by cooperating with this young man, they could eliminate all the demons in Yongnan Province. It was a fantasy.

"General, please don't underestimate me..."

Seeing the disbelief in Jiang Tao's face, Fang Yuan sighed softly. His figure suddenly disappeared from Jiang Tao's line of sight.

Before Jiang Tao could react, a hand was already pressing down on his shoulder.

Jiang Tao's eyes widened in shock. He instinctively tried to stand up but felt as if a mountain was weighing down on his shoulder, making him immobile!

He had previously heard the guards report that the guards' cultivation might be too low to break the enemy's magical abilities, but he never expected that even he, a small sect master at the seventh stage, would be so easily suppressed!

What was going on? Wasn't this person just a teenager?

Or had his cultivation reached such a level that he could even reverse aging?

"What is your cultivation?" Jiang Tao asked loudly, his heart beginning to race.

Fang Yuan did not answer. He withdrew his hand and then took out a piece of dried meat from his storage bag, tossing it to Jiang Tao. "General, try this."

Seeing Jiang Tao hesitate, Fang Yuan added, "Don't worry, it's not poisoned."

After saying this, he himself took a piece and ate it.

Jiang Tao had already smelled a strong meaty fragrance. Though unsure of Fang Yuan's intention, he also put the dried meat into his mouth and began chewing.

"Is it good?" Fang Yuan asked.

"It's simply a heavenly delicacy," Jiang Tao honestly replied.

"Then can you taste what it is?"

"Uh... beef jerky?"

"Correct, this is the beef jerky made by the Iron-Horned Demon King," Fang Yuan revealed the answer.

Jiang Tao's face froze instantly. He couldn't understand how "Iron-Horned Demon King" and "beef jerky" could be associated.

After all, the Iron-Horned Demon King was a terrifying demon lord... The last time he saw it, it was menacing, threatening to turn the entire Yongnan Province into its slaughterhouse.

How had it turned into beef jerky?

"You're saying you killed the Iron-Horned Demon King?" Jiang Tao's voice trembled slightly.

"Mm." Fang Yuan nodded. "I told you, I came here to cooperate with you to eliminate demons. The Iron-Horned Demon King is part of this cooperation."

Jiang Tao's brain went blank for a moment. Just as he was trying to process the situation, a lieutenant suddenly came to the door and reported:

"General, General Su of Qingping Prefecture has sent a message via the Flying Sparrow!"

Before Jiang Tao could respond, another lieutenant came with a report: "General, General Liu of Huaming Prefecture has also sent a message via the Flying Sparrow!"

And then a third: "General, there's also one from Dinghai Prefecture!"

Why were all the deputy generals from the various prefectures sending messages all of a sudden? Could there be a major disaster threatening the entire Yongnan Province?

Confused, Jiang Tao immediately ordered, "Bring them all in..."

He then looked at Fang Yuan with questioning eyes.

"You go ahead and attend to your business." Fang Yuan gestured to the side and sat down.

Jiang Tao then opened up the letters one by one and carefully read them. His expression, already confused, grew even more bewildered.

Like a statue, he remained silent for several minutes. Only then did Jiang Tao set the letters down and ask, "Lord Fang, is this your idea of cooperation?"

At this moment, his eyes were filled with unprecedented confusion because almost every letter had the same content!

This chapter is updat𝙚d by freeweɓnovel.cøm.

Each letter described a young man named "Fang Yuan" descending from the heavens, slaying the demon lords that had been troubling the area for years, and then parading the demon lords' corpses around the state city...

There was no doubt: everything, all of it, had been done by this very young man before him.

Not only had he killed the Iron-Horned Demon King, but it seemed that the demon lords under him had also been killed...

This wasn't cooperation at all! This was an enormous gift to the Yongnan Province military office—a generous subsidy!

Good heavens!
