An Earth Demon? The elder turned into a stream of light and flew to the Yufeng residence.

******

Outside the Yufeng residence, everyone could see the huge golden net that almost enveloped the entire residence through the courtyard walls. Every rope of the golden net was extremely clear. An aqua monster had already rushed into the air and was struggling frantically, but it couldn’t escape the net.

“An Earth Demon from Dongming Mountain.”

“Mr. Wu Ming is amazing. He’s fighting this Earth Demon.”

“He’s indeed a fourth-realm Demon Vanquisher.”

The other Demon Vanquishers present were rather surprised.

Under normal circumstances, the gap between a third-realm Demon Vanquisher and a fourth-realm Demon Vanquisher was very obvious. The probability of them fighting someone stronger than them was negligible! Xu Jingming could do it because he cultivated top spells that belonged to the Primordial Star Conjecture lineage! Moreover, he could only do so after cultivating the divine powers to basic mastery.

As for ordinary Demon Vanquishers, their Dharmic powers were less refined, and their spells were much worse.

“Demon Vanquisher.” The aqua-blue monster roared, “Let me go quickly; otherwise, you will be in trouble!”

“Are you threatening me?” Xu Jingming looked at him.

“I’m a city envoy, one of the five Demon Gods and 36 envoys under Mountain Lord Dongming.” The aqua-blue monster continued, “I have many friends in Dongming Mountain. If you anger me, it will bring about trouble for you!”

“Oh, I’m terrified.” Xu Jingming smiled at him.

Looking at the Demon Vanquisher’s smile, the Earth Demon understood that the other party wasn’t afraid at all.

What should I do? What should I do? The Earth Demon was also anxious. This was the prefecture capital, and it was ultimately a place where Demon Vanquishers maintained stability. Even the demons of Dongming Mountain didn’t dare to be too presumptuous in the prefecture capital due to the numerous Demon Vanquishers.

As a city envoy, he traveled carefully and patrolled the surroundings to obtain information about the city. Now that he was trapped, the chances of encountering some powerful Demon Vanquishers in the prefecture capital grew with time.

“It’s my fault.” The aqua-blue monster lowered its head slightly. “I apologize to you. Please let me go. As long as you let me go, I, Zhang Xiu, will definitely repay you.”

Whoosh.

An afterimage streaked across the sky and landed beside Xu Jingming—it was a white-haired elder, Qi Chen.

“Huh? This Earth Demon is begging for mercy,” Qi Chen said in surprise.

“Patriarch Qi?” The aqua-blue monster condensed into a cyan-shirted elder and immediately bowed respectfully. “Patriarch Qi, I’m Zhang Xiu, one of the 36 envoys of Dongming Mountain. Please spare my life and let me go.”

Earth Demons usually had greater self-control and acted like normal humans.

“Whether you are released depends on Brother Wu Ming.” Qi Chen looked at Xu Jingming.

“Sorry to trouble you, Brother Qi Chen,” Xu Jingming said.

Qi Chen nodded.

“No.” The cyan-shirted elder’s eyes revealed despair as he shouted, “Demon God Qinghu and I are good friends. Mountain Lord Dongming thinks highly of me. If you kill me—”

Qi Chen flicked his sleeve, and an invisible wind swept past the cyan-shirted elder.

Mid-sentence, the cyan-shirted elder’s eyes widened as he silently dissipated, leaving only a wisp of intrinsic demonic aura that attempted to escape.

In terms of strength, Qi Chen was among the top five Demon Vanquishers in Cheng’an Prefecture. It was naturally easy for him to kill a city envoy.

“This wisp of intrinsic demonic aura is useless to me. Brother Wu Ming, keep it,” Qi Chen said. He was also firmly carrying out his sister’s suggestion—trying his best to befriend Brother Wu Ming.

“Thank you, Brother Qi Chen.” Xu Jingming thanked him and put the wisp of demonic aura into a jade bottle.

In the jade bottle, the two wisps of intrinsic demonic aura couldn’t be replenished by the powers of heaven and earth, so they naturally couldn’t cause any trouble.

“But you have to be careful next,” Qi Chen reminded. “Earth Demons are different from Human Demons. Earth Demons are more like ordinary humans, and they care about friendship. It’s very likely that a demon from Dongming Mountain will come specially for you.”

“Oh?” Xu Jingming nodded slightly. “Thank you for the warning, Brother Qi Chen. I’ll be careful.”
