Easy Way of Cultivation: Power Harvesting-Chapter 307 - 164: Walking the Path of Death, Late Divine Realm
The atmosphere in Su City was tense. Ever since the matter of the Celestial Roc Body Cleansing Skill had spread throughout the Jianghu, many people had secretly breached the Suzhou Demon Suppression Bureau, but this was the first time someone had blatantly threatened the Demon Suppression Bureau to hand over Wei Fan.
"It’s Wu Shiping from the Prisoner Dragon Stronghold, who would have thought even people from the Prisoner Dragon Stronghold would come!"
Someone recognized the person who was threatening the Demon Suppression Bureau and was surprised; Wu Shiping was a master of Divine Realm Perfection.
People from the Prisoner Dragon Stronghold came, now let’s see how the Suzhou Demon Suppression Bureau will handle this.
In the sky, Huo Tianzheng gazed at Wu Shiping, his expression as calm as still water: "Are you threatening the Demon Suppression Bureau? If it was your Dragon Head from the Prisoner Dragon Stronghold saying these words, they might carry some weight. Who do you think you are, Wu Shiping? Do you think I, an old man, am easily frightened?"
He stood with his hands behind his back, stooped, like a flickering candle in the wind.
But in the next moment, an earth-shattering aura burst from his body, and he struck out with a palm in mid-air.
Boom!
The entire Su City trembled slightly; the terrifying palm force was like raging waves crashing, and Wu Shiping was blasted hundreds of meters away, spewing a mouthful of blood.
"You... how is this possible..."
Wu Shiping stared in horror at Huo Tianzheng’s thin frame, unable to believe that as a Grandmaster in the realm of Divine Realm Perfection, he was blasted away by a palm from a distance.
Not only him, but all the Grandmasters in Su City were also shocked. When did Huo Tianzheng become so powerful?
Was he not supposed to be nearing his life’s end, just waiting to die?
How could he blast Wu Shiping away with one palm?
Situ Feng’s eyes were excited: "Has Elder Huo taken that step?"
Huo Tianzheng did not continue to act. He looked around Su City and said, "Those who do not wish to die, get out of Su City immediately. I will say it one last time, Wei Fan is not in Su City, nor does he possess the Celestial Roc Body Cleansing Skill. It is all a Demon Fiend’s trick!"
"Is it just because you say it’s not there that it’s not there? Bring Wei Fan out for a confrontation. The Suzhou Demon Suppression Bureau wants to monopolize the Celestial Roc Body Cleansing Skill, but you do not have the strength!"
Another voice rang out, followed by a figure engulfed in light soaring into the sky, exuding an aura of Divine Realm Perfection.
"Everyone is here for the Celestial Roc Body Cleansing Skill, stop hiding. The friends from the Prisoner Dragon Stronghold have stepped forward, do you think you can reap the benefits without any effort? It’s not that easy, unless Wei Fan is forced out. With Wei Fan’s demonic nature, given time, everyone here will only suffer!"
A third person appeared, also a master of Divine Realm Perfection, their entire body covered in light, obscuring their true appearance.
As this voice rang out, more beings of the Divine Realm began to rise in succession within Su City, and soon, seven or eight Divine Realm entities appeared.
The commanders standing behind Huo Tianzheng, including Situ Feng and You Qingfeng, all changed their expressions dramatically.
Among these seven or eight individuals, none had cultivation below the Middle Stage of the Divine Realm.
A boundless intent to kill surged across Huo Tianzheng’s calm face: "Very well, you want to use force to coerce the Demon Suppression Bureau, as if the Demon Suppression Bureau is a pushover. We don’t fear even Demon Fiends, why would we fear you, sneaky scoundrels? Anyone else wants to use force to coerce the Demon Suppression Bureau?
If you dare, come out all at once, and let me see if you are worth it."
Suddenly, several more figures soared into the air: "Huo Tianzheng, I think you’ve got things mixed up. Wei Fan is no longer a Commander of the Demon Suppression Bureau, he’s just a Demon Hunter. Demon Hunters don’t belong to the Demon Suppression Bureau. We’re only targeting Wei Fan, not the Demon Suppression Bureau. Does the Demon Suppression Bureau interfere in Jianghu vendettas?"
These words caused a slight change in the expressions of Situ Feng and several others. Strictly speaking, the Demon Suppression Bureau and Demon Hunters are indeed not part of a single system.
"Grand Elder Fang Weimin of the Divine Sword Sect!" You Qingfeng recognized the identity of the person speaking, and the others were all Divine Realm Martial Sect figures within Tongzhou.
This move was intended to separate Wei Fan from the Demon Suppression Bureau. As long as Wei Fan was no longer part of the Demon Suppression Bureau, anyone targeting Wei Fan would only be involved in a Jianghu vendetta, not an attack on the Demon Suppression Bureau.
This tactic was extremely vicious, yet highly effective, because Wei Fan indeed did not belong to the Demon Suppression Bureau.
Demon Hunters, to those who know, are not subject to the Demon Suppression Bureau General or Garrison Commanders, and do not belong to the official Great Victory Dynasty.
As Grand Elder Fang Weimin of the Divine Sword Sect spoke, several Divine Realm Martial Sect figures were stirred.
"Everyone, please hold on!"
Suddenly, another Divine Realm Martial Sect figure soared into the sky, this time from within the Demon Suppression Bureau.
The person was wearing the official garb of a Demon Suppression Bureau inspector, holding a document in their hand.
Liu Jingxiang scanned Huo Tianzheng, Situ Feng, and the others: "I am Liu Jingxiang, Inspector of the Capital City’s Demon Suppression Bureau. Su City Commander and the Three Great Commanders heed my orders..."
Situ Feng, Yue Chengwu, and Huo Tianzheng cupped their hands!
Below, Chen Qiming felt a sense of foreboding. Just now, he had intended to report to Huo Tianzheng about the Inspector’s arrival from headquarters, but before he could, the matter with Wu Shiping unfolded.
Now this Inspector appearing at such a critical moment, was clearly coming to cause trouble.
Indeed, Liu Jingxiang’s next announced order confirmed his suspicions.
"...Demon Hunters have no relation to the Great Victory Dynasty. Su City Commander and the Three Great Commanders are hereby ordered not to use the Demon Suppression Bureau’s forces to engage in Jianghu conflicts, violators will be dismissed and investigated according to the law!"
Chen Qiming’s face looked grim; it was clearly aimed at Wei Fan, forcing the Suzhou Demon Suppression Bureau not to concern itself with Wei Fan’s matters.
You Qingfeng and Situ Feng had similar reactions. Zhang Juzheng had stooped to this level, directly using his authority to order the Demon Suppression Bureau not to handle Wei Fan’s affairs.
Of course, this did not break any rules, since Demon Hunters are not part of the official system, not even the Emperor of the Great Victory Dynasty can command a Demon Hunter.
