"Oh, in twenty years, you should be the one to find that old mudfish and slay him."
Having witnessed Jiang Shu's battle with Sen Hu Demon Monarch firsthand, Hu Yi was more aware than anyone of the true power of their master.
More importantly, Jiang Shu's cultivation ti was exceedingly short; given enough ti, the trivial Black Dragon Demon Lord would be no match.
Hu Yi's voice was very loud. Previously Jiang Shu was absent, so he feared that his conversation might be overheard by Transformation Realm Great Demons. But now, what did a minor Transformation Realm count for in the presence of their master?
"You certainly have confidence in ."
Jiang Shu said with a smile.
"How have the tasks I assigned you over the past six months been coming along?"
When it ca to this matter, Hu Yi imdiately grew excited, sat up straight involuntarily, coughed twice, and cupped his hands in salute, saying: "Reporting to the master, the Northern Domain of Chaotic Demon Sea is completely under our control now. Recently, a significant portion of the resources the Black Dragon Demon Lord has been gathering, I have already managed to interfere with."
"However, when I tried to expand outward using this as leverage, I encountered so trouble, so the speed slowed down a bit."
Northern Domain is the territory of the Black Dragon Demon Lord, who deliberately allowed the Fox People Clan to grow, intending to pick the fruit at the end. Moreover, under Hu Yi's bloody thods, the stubborn elents among other half-demon species were dealt with—those who should be killed were killed, those who should be crippled were crippled—already gathering all half-demons into his own hands.
However, other places were different.
The local Demon Monarchs had substantial grievances against the Black Dragon Demon Lord, and they could not stand the expansion of the Fox People. They even started suppressing the intelligence network of the Fox People in secret, albeit with little effect, while the Fox People's intelligence network beca even more robust.
"Good job."
This went beyond Jiang Shu's expectations.
"In these six months, your cultivation has not fallen behind. It's been hard on you."
In over half a year, Hu Yi's realm had progressed from the Furnace Fire Realm Middle Stage to the Late Stage, and, more importantly, his essence blood was more refined, with greater potential than before.
"Had it not been for the master bestowing cultivation techniques and resources, subordinates like breaking through to the current realm would be unforeseeable!"
Hu Yi again made a gesture of bowing, but was supported by an invisible, gentle force.
"Doing your tasks well is far more useful than bowing."
Jiang Shu stood up and walked toward the outside, "Let's go, have a look at that so-called Transford Realm Demon, see how he handles the Fox People Clan."
Upon hearing this, Hu Yi imdiately stood up and walked in front of Jiang Shu to lead the way.
That Transford Realm Demon was certainly arrogant; upon arrival, he occupied the most luxurious residence on Fox People Island, indulging in food and drink, and killing Fox People for fun when bored. This kind of life was much more carefree compared to being under the Black Dragon Demon Lord.
"The wine is finished, don't you know how to pour more?"
He transford into human form, leaned slantingly on the bed with a half-filled glass in hand, looked with great dissatisfaction at the Fox People maid beside him; his gaze was boiling with killing intent. Before that Fox People maid could speak, he suddenly made a move, intending to kill her.
The Fox People maid felt death approaching and could no longer hold back. She turned and fled.
The Transford Realm Demon seed to greatly enjoy this sensation of hunting prey. After a mont of thought, he retracted his hand and chased behind the maid, not too far or too close.
"Young master, young master, save !"
As the maid was about to reach the palace door, she was initially despairing, but upon seeing Hu Yi appear at the entrance, her face instantly burst into an expression of great joy. She erupted with incredible speed, fled to behind Hu Yi, trembling even without noticing Jiang Shu standing behind him.
The Transford Realm Demon also stopped, looked at Hu Yi unfavorably.
"Hu Yi, why are you here? Have you found Jiang Taixuan's trail? Don't forget you have less than half a month left."
His bloodline was sowhat unusual, vaguely sensing a hint of ominous premonition.
He was a Transford Realm Demon, with keen perception, how co he didn't hear any movent when Hu Yi approached.
Hu Yi gently patted the hand that clung to his sleeve, looked at the Transford Realm Demon with eyes filled with anger, sneered: "If I hadn't found him, I wouldn't have known that the Lord's life was so indulgent."
Though his heart was sowhat apprehensive, listening to such undisguised sarcasm, the Transford Realm Demon was extrely irritated, releasing his pressure as a Transford Realm Demon towards Hu Yi.
"Just a lowly half-demon, if killed then killed, what can you do?"
He was arrogant, but the next instant he was struck with dread.
He discovered his pressure was of no effect on Hu Yi, blocked by a particular power.
And this power originated from behind Hu Yi, from a figure he hadn't even noticed.
He recognized this face all too well.
In the past six months, he had almost raced day and night across the sea, searching for this person's trail, never expecting him to appear before him today.
"Jiang... Jiang..."
He trembled and couldn't speak.
Hu Yi glanced around, then discovered several bodies of Fox People in the room's corner. The anger in his heart had reached an irresistible point; veins bulged as he laughed uproariously: "Didn't you want to find the master's trail? How co today when the master stands before you, you dare not speak?"
"Yes, my half-demon cultivation is poor, deed a lowly species in your eyes."
"But before the master, are you not a lowly demon race too?!"
The Transford Realm Demon was enveloped in imnse fear.
Previously, they only knew Jiang Shu was the First True Inheritor of True Martial Sect, extrely formidable, with even so figures of princely rank falling to his hands.
But with news from the Human Clan, they similarly learned of Jiang Shu's life story, their hearts filled with ever-increasing terror.
No matter the reason, this man was too strong.
If he were allowed to grow, then there was truly no path forward for the Demon Race.
At this mont, he stood before him.
"Killing weaklings at will, yet incapable of uttering a word before the strong, what a worthless being."
Jiang Shu slowly spoke, reaching out, nothing extraordinary about him, pressing towards that Transford Realm Demon.
"Ah!"
The Transford Realm Demon shouted in shock, attempting to manifest his original form and flee outside.
But in the next instant, he felt the surrounding space compressing upon him, crushing him with broken bones and tendons. Blood spewed from his mouth, unable even to transform, let alone escape.
"Spare , spare !"
"I am willing to submit to you."
He shouted for rcy.
But Jiang Shu remained unmoved, his eyes flickered with light, a massive hand seal ford in front of his palm, and a phantom of a great river appeared, resembling the River of the Dead, washing away the soul of that Transford Realm Demon.
This was the Netherworld Soul-Washing Seal, capable of cleansing a cultivator's divine sense and mory, making them an empty shell, extrely sinister.
Used on this demon, it was quite fitting.
Hu Yi had never seen such divine skills, curiously approached to inspect.
He still rembered the embarrassing scene while observing Jiang Shu's array formation, and his heart was uneasy, yet he couldn't resist his curiosity any longer, frozen in place in the next mont.
He saw a long river, with obscure origin and end, seemingly lacking any entity, rolling forward, filled with eerie but inexplicably righteous vibes, brimming with contradiction.
Hu Yi felt his soul seed drawn.
He believed he should trace back this river, go to its end, where lay a perfect Nirvana place.
"Awaken."
At this instant, a voice ca to his ears, jolting him awake with confusion, glancing around.
"Your spiritual power is too weak to witness such great technique."
Jiang Shu shook his head and said.
This Netherworld Soul-Washing Seal doesn't count as supre divine skills, but with the comprehension of the Soul Great Dao, Jiang Shu had a new understanding of it. Not to ntion ordinary Transford Realm Demons, even so dignitaries of the Demon Race, Jiang Shu could cleanse their soul, transform them into slaves.
