Immortal Devil Transformation-Chapter Volume 16 85: Heaven’s Will and People’s Will

Furious red robed Divine Adjudicators and several thousand Religion Army soldiers charged into Auspicious Virtue’s farms.

There were many people working on the farms right now. When they saw the red robed Divine Adjudicators and Religion Army soldiers charge into the field, these laborers didn’t seem to have much of a reaction. Many of them only gave them a look before continuing to do what they were doing.

A woman dressed in ordinary clothes heard the sound of horse hooves. She walked out from a black tiled farmhouse.

Veins immediately popped on the forehead of that middle-aged man with graying temple hairs.

He had seen this woman before. Even though she was dressed in ordinary clothes, it still couldn’t conceal her brilliance. That was because she was Yunqin’s legendary figure, Auspicious Virtue’s Great Shopkeeper Chen Feirong.

“Chen Feirong!”

When he saw Chen Feirong’s figure, this middle-aged Divine Adjudicator was no longer scared of her escaping. He stopped and berated from a distance, “Do you understand the repercussions of your actions?”

This middle-aged Divine Adjudicator was previously in charge of interrogation in Purgatory Mountain, so he was full of experience. His first sentence was to directly accuse her of a criminal charge, not giving her any chance to defend herself and attacking at her mind. After being in charge of interrogation for a long time, his cold and gloomy aura quickly spread through the farmland.

“I thought that you would ask me why I did this first.” While looking at this vicious middle-aged Divine Adjudicator, Chen Feirong instead only smiled. She spoke just as gracefully as she normally did.

The middle-aged Divine Adjudicator’s eyes narrowed, asking coldly, “Will you even reply if I ask?”

Chen Feirong replied with a smile. “I will.”

The middle-aged Divine Adjudicator’s face became even colder. He said with a sneer, “Fine, then why did you do this?”

“It is actually quite the simple reasoning.” Chen Feirong calmly looked at this middle-aged Divine Adjudicator. “It is because Auspicious Virtue doesn’t belong to me at all. I am only Auspicious Virtue’ great shopkeeper, but at the same time I am someone under Lin Xi. Lin Xi is the true master of Auspicious Virtue.”

The faces of the middle-aged Divine Adjudicator and all of the other Divine Adjudicators behind him turned pale. Their lips couldn’t help but shake uncontrollably.

Behind him, an uproar erupted like an ocean tide.

No one expected Chen Feirong’s reply to be so simple and direct. Moreover, none of them expected the answer Chen Feirong gave to be this one.

The middle-aged Divine Adjudicator’s lips trembled, sweat continuously pouring down his back. A cultivation holy land might be able to easily take control of a country, but making a merchant company become Yunqin’s greatest merchant company, moreover with such astonishing speed, this wasn’t something that could be done just because one wants to. Auspicious Virtue’s master was precisely Lin Xi! This middle-aged Divine Adjudicator didn’t even dare imagine just what kind of shocking effects and consequences would result from this revelation.

“Destroy Auspicious Virtue!”

“We must destroy Auspicious Virtue!”

In the end, an extremely clear thought appeared in his mind.

“Kill!”

A voice that was trembling slightly, a bit bitter, gave out orders from his mouth.

The red robed Divine Adjudicators and the cavalry army behind him put away their shocked expressions, starting a crazy charge. Even though they knew that there was already no way to redeem the damage Auspicious Virtue caused the eastern expedition, they still had to kill these enemies as quickly as possible to demonstrate their loyalty to Zhang Ping.

The atmosphere suddenly became strange.

It was because while these red robed Divine Adjudicators and cavalry army began to charge forward, those laborers in Auspicious Virtue’s fields continued to work, as if they didn’t see the incoming cultivators and army at all.

This made all of the red robed Divine Adjudicators and Religion Army soldiers wonder if this was real life, or if this was just a fantasy.

A red robed Divine Adjudicator rushed up to a farmer who was preoccupied with his work.

A black and red chain swept out from his hand, shooting towards this farmer’s head.

A farmer next to this one brandished the hoe in his hands, and then stabbed it into the dirt. These chains were sent into the dirt with the hoe.

The farmer who was busy with farmwork got up. The sickle in his hands sliced at this red robed Divine Adjudicator’s throat.

The red robed Divine Adjudicator died.

Many of the red robed Divine Adjudicators behind him also died instantly.

The farmers in this field still seemed to be working diligently, but the red robed Divine Adjudicators who rushed up to them instead fell and died. They were even killed in an extremely swift and effective manner.

The thousands of Religion Army soldiers behind the red robed Divine Adjudicator all shivered.

They were doubting their eyes, yet the chi chi spurting of blood couldn’t be more real.

This type of murdering speed, moreover this speed at dispatching cultivators, it was just too terrifying.

“Black Flag Army!”

“It’s Dragon Snake Border Army’s Black Flag Army!”

An extremely alarmed voice sounded in the cavalry army. All of the fighting spirit in this cavalry army instantly vanished, replaced with numbing fear.

The middle-aged red robed Divine Adjudicator’s breathing completely stopped. He also finally reacted.

Those ‘farmers’ weren’t ordinary laborers at all, but rather the world's most powerful army, Dragon Snake’s Black Flag Army!

An arrow landed between his brows.

The Black Flag Army had the ability to slaughter a several thousand membered standard army, let alone a cavalry army without any heavy military equipment. This battle was just a one-sided massacre.

Chen Feirong didn’t bother watching this bloody scene.

She calmly looked into the distant sky.

She was one of the few people in this world who had the most confidence in Lin Xi’s victory.

“Keep fighting.” She smiled and said quietly inwardly, “I want to see an even more beautiful world.”

…

“Auspicious Virtue belongs to Young Sir Lin?”

“Young Sir Lin was actually Auspicious Virtue’s master!”

All of Auspicious Virtue's stores began to close temporarily, but it was also at this time that all of Auspicious Virtue’s employees immediately learned this shocking piece of information. This information spread through Yunqin with astonishing speed. All those who heard this news didn’t know how they ought to release what they were feeling.

“After defeating the devil king, we will have an even more beautiful world.”

This was the promise Chen Feirong gave in Lin Xi’s place.

The most crucial part was that most of Yunqin’s people believed in this promise that was spreading throughout this empire. All of them were excited by this promise, all of them surging with hot blood.

…

Everyone had a yearning for a wonderful lifestyle. Under this type of popular sentiment, those believers who didn’t even have food to eat were truly laughable and foolish.

The hundreds of thousands of people moving through East Forest Province ended up completely dispersing.

This army gathered many Purgatory Mountain disciples who were absolutely loyal to Zhang Ping. Among them, many were even the trusted aids Zhang Ping acquired when he first took over the role of Purgatory Mountain Patriarch, as well as many cultivators who chose to serve Zhang Ping.

But most of these people didn’t know why Zhang Ping would choose to stop here.

Their hearts were shrouded by a shadow of defeat and inauspiciousness.

Several days later, groups of massive, mountainous figures suddenly appeared in their line of sight.

Their eyes became bright again.

They knew that this was the Divine Elephant Army.

Then, they saw that there were many figures behind the Divine Elephant Army as well.

They all became excited.

The Divine Elephant Army also brought tens of thousands of soldiers with them.

It was unknown if these tens of thousands of soldiers who came with the Divine Elephant Army came from Great Mang or Yunqin, but they gathered in this camp filled with banners and curtains.

This Divine Elephant Army was still wrapped in special armor like during the great Purgatory Mountain battle, only their eyes exposed, even their trunks covered inside armor. But what was different was that these Divine Elephants’ auras carried tremendous heat. The air that was released from their trunks even seemed to be boiling steam!

…

Lin Xi was precisely in Turtle Edge Mountain.

He could even clearly see the arrival of the Divine Elephant Army.

He already completed the preparations to face Zhang Ping head-on. But the day this Divine Elephant Army arrived, a white clothed monk walked out from Dragon Snake Mountain Range’s jungle. He arrived at Turtle Edge Mountain, and then under Nangong Weiyang’s lead, ultimately stood in front of Lin Xi.

“I am Xuan Yuan.”

This gentle and clean white clothed monk whose body seemed to release buddha radiance smiled as he gave Lin Xi his self-introduction. “Zhen Pilu and Yun Hai are my junior brothers.”

Xuan Yuan didn’t have any reputation in the world of cultivators. He didn’t even have any fame in Tangcang.

Lin Xi could already tell purely from the light around Xuan Yuan that he was indeed someone from Sanskrit Temple. But at the same time, he felt like Xuan Yuan’s aura was extremely strange. As such, he couldn’t help but directly say, “Your aura is a bit strange.”

“Oh?” Xuan Yuan asked with a smile, “How so?”

Lin Xi said seriously, “It seems to be isolated from the world, as if it is not in this world, but in a painting.”

“First, it is a minor trick of sealing up moisture, then, it is the insight of establishing oneself as a bystander, seeing the world and self from a third perspective,” said Xuan Yuan. Google search 𝗳𝔯e𝒆𝙬𝘦𝙗𝓷o𝘷el. c૦𝑚

Lin Xi gained some insights. He bowed towards Xuan Yuan again. “Thank you for the guidance. It is easy to look at another, but difficult to look at the self.”

Nangong Weiyang frowned slightly. She felt like the two of them were definitely discussing some profound cultivation reasoning, yet she couldn’t figure it out even with her cultivation.

Xuan Yuan instead looked at Lin Xi and said with a smile, “Your aura is also a bit strange. It is half dark and half light.”

Lin Xi also laughed. “If the heart is radiant, then that is precisely radiance.”

Xuan Yuan laughed heartily. “Truly miraculous as expected.”

Lin Xi then slowly put away his smile, becoming serious as he asked, “Why did you decide to hurry here from Sanskrit Temple?”

Xuan Yuan said, “I came to stand at your side.”

Nangong Weiyang finally couldn’t take it anymore. She looked at Xuan Yuan and frowned. “Even though your words aren’t nonsense like his, I cannot understand a thing.”

Xuan Yuan smiled. He looked in Zhang Ping’s direction and said, “You will understand when the time comes. Moreover, he already lacks patience, so we should not have to wait long.”
