I Become a Martial Arts God in the Chaotic Demon World-Chapter 142 Demons Appear
Han Zheng gazed at Yao Zijing with a mix of scrutiny and surprise.
He had guessed that the Demon would eventually be unable to resist, but he had not expected Yao Zijing to be the first to jump out.
Just as Pang Wanchun had said before, everyone present was a renowned figure in the Martial World; none could possibly be a Demon.
Thus, Han Zheng had only speculated that the Demon had disguised itself, either by replacing one of the Tang Family's servants or by hiding somewhere.
Unexpectedly, Yao Zijing reacted so vehemently.
Though his attitude had been poor from the start, none of the people from the Martial World present had a favorable view of the Demon Cleansing Bureau.
But to detain them for just three days in the Tang Family home, Yao Zijing's extreme reaction was definitely suspicious.
He first tried to incite Tang Youde and the other martial artists present to take action and be the scapegoat.
Seeing that no one stood with him, Yao Zijing even tried to leave by force.
Claiming his master had obtained an Elixir that he couldn't delay taking, if he was in such a rush to return and consume the Elixir for cultivation, why bother attending the birthday celebration at the Tang Family at all?
Yao Zijing drew the sword in his hand and shouted angrily, "The Demon Cleansing Bureau should just pursue the Demon, why restrict our freedom? I will leave today, and see who dares to stop me!"
Han Zheng drew his Autumn Water Shocking Swallow, pointing at Yao Zijing, and spoke indifferently, "You can't leave, and I find you very suspicious.
I have a few questions for Young Master Yao, were you in Kai Ping Prefecture three days ago?
Where were you when Uncle Fu died?"
A slight change appeared on Pang Wanchun's face.
He seemed to know the answers to the three questions asked by Han Zheng.
Three days ago, Yao Zijing was indeed with his fiancée in Kai Ping Prefecture.
He adored his fiancée and often brought her to Kai Ping Prefecture to buy rouge, powder, and other novel items, even boasting to Pang Wanchun about it.
At the time of Uncle Fu's death, Pang Wanchun had just thought to ask Yao Zijing how much of a birthday gift the Guiyuan Sword Sect had given to Tang Youde, but he couldn't find him.
Instead, Yao Zijing appeared moments later, stating he was accompanying his fiancée to the restroom, and Pang Wanchun had joked that the two were practically glued together, unable to part even for a moment.
Now knowing the time of Uncle Fu's death, it seemed to be precisely when Yao Zijing was absent!
At that moment, Yao Zijing's face showed a furious expression as he bellowed, "Han Zheng! You are going too far!"
As his voice fell, Yao Zijing directly attacked Han Zheng, actually trying to force his way out.
"Keep watch over Yunhe Manor, do not let anyone leave!"
Han Zheng instructed Su Wuming and the others, then directly slashed at Yao Zijing with his sword.
Dealing with Yao Zijing alone, Han Zheng was confident.
He feared that Yao Zijing's attack was meant to cover for the Demon, leading to a battle on their side while the Demon took the opportunity to escape.
Yao Zijing's origin, the Guiyuan Sword Pavilion, could be said to be the youngest and fastest-rising power among the Martial World forces of Southern Mountain.
More than a decade ago, Yin Taiqing had reached the peak of the Dan Sea Realm, achieving the Grandmaster of Sword Dao, founding the Guiyuan Sword Pavilion, and becoming famous throughout the Martial World.
Though the Guiyuan Sword Pavilion had not been established for long, it already had many disciples; Yao Zijing as a direct disciple even matched the prowess of young prodigies from the Five Families and Seven Sects and had reached the Half-Step Xuan Gang Realm.
At this moment, the Sword Force in Yao Zijing's hand was transcendent, the silver-white ultimate sharpness of the Sword Qi cascading like a waterfall.
The secret Cultivation Technique of Guiyuan Sword Pavilion, the Guiyuan Sword Manual, encompassed all aspects of Sword Dao, commanding an aura that was both vast and majestic.
Upon Han Zheng's sword, the dense Blood Slaughter Demon Qi gathered, augmented by the Dragon Elephant Prison, and with one strike, it was like cleaving the heavens, instantly cutting through the dense sword edges.
The clash of sword and blade immediately erupted with a resonant clang.
Yao Zijing's figure staggered back, a look of shock flashing across his eyes.
How could Han Zheng's strength be so immense?
From among the crowd watching, Pang Wanchun shook his head slightly.
Just one exchange was enough for him to see that Yao Zijing stood no chance.
Without clashing with Han Zheng, one could never truly feel his terrifying might.
Your Qi Blood Power is strong, yet his is stronger.
Your True Qi is robust, yet his is more plentiful.
Your techniques are powerful, but any Cultivation Technique Han Zheng casually draws upon is of the Xuan Gang Realm, surpassing yours.
No matter what approach you use against Han Zheng, you are always at a disadvantage.
However, Yao Zijing's response was somewhat beyond Pang Wanchun's expectations.
When previously fighting Han Zheng in Julong Cave, Pang Wanchun had seen he was no match and had chosen to retreat, replacing himself with Guan Hongtu.
Now, after one unsuccessful move, Yao Zijing directly started fighting desperately!
In an instant, boundless Sword Qi gathered around Yao Zijing, submerging him completely.
Between heaven and earth, there was only Guiyuan One Sword!
A massive Sword Qi, spanning several meters, slashed towards Han Zheng, its momentum no less inferior to a martial artist of the Xuan Gang Realm.
When they first met, Yao Zijing appeared somewhat arrogant, but now, the strength he demonstrated indeed justified his arrogance.
With this Guiyuan One Sword alone, Yao Zijing's strength was certainly a notch above Pang Wanchun's.
The powerful Sword Qi roared and exploded, causing the martial artists within Yunhe Manor to change their expressions and hurriedly retreat, bursting forth with their Protective True Qi to defend themselves.
After one strike, Yao Zijing's face was slightly pale.
However, instead of choosing to continue fighting, he shouted to his fiancée, Ling Xian'er, "Let's go!"
With that, he took Ling Xian'er's hand and attempted to leave.
"Leave? You won't get away!"
Within the boundless Sword Qi, a scarlet figure suddenly descended.
The Killing Intent surged as if slicing open the Gate of Hell, with faint sounds of thousands of ghosts wailing.
Under the Avici Path Shura Slash, the boundless Blood Slaughter engulfed the Sword Qi.
Clad in black Xuan Armor with Blood Slaughter swirling around him, Han Zheng danced in the scattered Sword Qi.
Tang Youde's eyes revealed a trace of shock.
Although his own strength was average, he had made countless connections with outstanding individuals in the Martial World over the years. What genius had he not seen?
But even when people like the Pang Family Head and Wei Family's Guest Elder Lin Xiaokun were at the same realm as Han Zheng, their strength was never this terrifying!
He had made the right decision not to conflict with Han Zheng at the beginning.
Otherwise, if he really had to take on Han Zheng, who was much younger,
winning would bring no honor, and if he failed to defeat the other in a few moves, it would be utterly shameful.
As for losing, then Tang Youde might as well hang himself with a rope.
He, who cared so much about his reputation, could not stand becoming a laughingstock in the Martial World.
Just then, with the sound of thunderous roars, Han Zheng almost instantaneously appeared in front of Yao Zijing.
Autumn Water Shocking Swallow, swirling with Blood Slaughter Demon Qi, slashed down in countless variations, quickly putting Yao Zijing in grave danger.
Yao Zijing clenched his teeth and resisted, but he was relentlessly forced to retreat by Han Zheng.
The Sword Dao of Guiyuan Sword Manual was magnificent and at first involved complex techniques, but ultimately simplified into simplicity, incorporating a myriad of variations into one sword, bearing some similarities to the Song Family's Heaven Blade.
Yao Zijing couldn't achieve simplification yet, but Han Zheng had already grasped the essence of the Heaven Blade—each slash embodied countless variations.
Thus, an extremely bizarre scene was witnessed by all.
As Han Zheng slashed down, Yao Zijing's sword moves kept changing back and forth, even altering dozens of times before finally delivering that one sword strike.

At that moment, Yao Zijing suddenly formed a Seal Technique with his hands, and his Qi Blood power suddenly boiled and burned.
A fierce and sharp Sword Qi mixed with boundless blood energy condensed around him.
A dense mass of blood-colored sword edges gathered behind him, merging into one, and fiercely stabbed towards Han Zheng!
"Husband!"
Yao Zijing's fiancée, Ling Xian'er, suddenly turned pale with anxiety written all over her face.
The surging and powerful True Qi around Han Zheng burst forth, and he grabbed the air with force!
A True Qi giant hand suddenly materialized, crushing the blood-colored sword edge formed from ten thousand swords.
Then, with unmitigated momentum, it swept past Yao Zijing, smashing him violently to the ground.
Having his Qi Blood True Qi instantly stripped by a large amount, and considering he had burned some of his Qi Blood previously, resulted in him spewing out a mouthful of fresh blood.
In the next instant, the Blood Slaughter spread over Han Zheng's Autumn Water Shocking Swallow, already slashing down.
Just then, a profound and dense Demon Energy suddenly emerged.
"Don't hurt my husband!"
Behind Ling Xian'er, nine thick white fox tails appeared, three of which were real while the other six were somewhat blurry.
The overwhelming Demon Energy gathered into a dense Sword Array and crashed down onto Han Zheng.
"Great Demon!"
Han Zheng's expression changed abruptly.
Boundless Demonic Qi gathered in front of him to block the falling sky of Sword Arrays, and Su Wuming decisively burned his Qi Blood, thrusting forth the Heaven Splitting Coiled Dragon Spear, creating dense spear shadows to shield Han Zheng.
Ye Liuyun, holding the Cloud Piercing Sky Shattering Bow, had never put it down. Now, he suddenly fired it, and a great burst of flames exploded!
