I Become a Martial Arts God in the Chaotic Demon World-Chapter 368: The Profound-Minded Han Zheng

Fang Henge's boat arrived at the shore of Smoke Wave Lake in less than an hour.

Han Zheng bid farewell to Chu Xinghe and Fang Henge right on the boat, decisively and swiftly disembarked, and rushed back to Smoke Wave Prefecture.

Watching Han Zheng's departing figure, Chu Xinghe shook his head gently and said, "Previously, when I was at the Capital Demon Suppression Department, I was quite arrogant, believing that although I was not a stunning genius, I had decent talent.

But after seeing Brother Han, I realized that I had underestimated the heroes of the world.

Even though the local Demon Cleansing Bureaus do not have as good conditions as in the capital, they have still produced quite a few outstanding individuals.

There's no need to mention Brother Han, he had already saved me once before, and this time we met, he had stepped into the Dan Sea Realm.

That Brother Su, with whom we sparred two moves, also possessed extremely astonishing combat power, far surpassing us.

The treatment of colleagues in the local areas is far inferior to ours, yet their combat power is so much stronger. It truly makes us feel ashamed."

Chu Xinghe's words were not insincere but a genuine expression of embarrassment.

Though they, the chosen talents from headquarters, had the same salary as the Demon Sweeping Captains from various places, their benefits were far superior, and they received guidance from more powerful figures.

Yet even with this, they weren't a match for Han Zheng or Su Wuming, which made Chu Xinghe feel as if they were wasting the resources of the Demon Cleansing Bureau.

Fang Henge said solemnly, "Don't think too much about it. Characters like Han Zheng and Su Wuming are rare in the local areas.

The world is vast, not only does the capital produce geniuses. Under harsh conditions, local Demon Cleansing Bureaus also have many outstanding figures.

This Southern Mountain path is very peculiar though, although overall strength is considered below average among the nineteen paths of the Great Zhou, it has consistently produced strong figures.

The previous Garrison Commander, Yan Xuankong, although controversial, was indeed a rare Martial Arts genius, just not very principled.

The current Garrison Commander, Chen Baxian, is famously heroic and talented, said to be highly regarded by the Grand Commander.

Now with Han Zheng and Su Wuming, although they have not yet fully matured, their potential indicates they will surely make significant impacts in the future.

Moreover, Han Zheng is not only limitless in potential in Martial Arts, but his mind and strategic thinking are profound, not at all reflecting his young age."

The questions Fang Henge had asked Han Zheng were met with responses that were absolutely watertight.

Although it was to bring down Wu Yunfei, his answers were righteous and just.

Of course, Fang Henge wanted such righteous answers, not the deceitful words of a scheming mind.

Comparing himself in his youth to Han Zheng, he felt he was no different from a fool.

Only after hitting numerous obstacles and shedding blood did he learn how to handle matters.

"Brother Han is deep and shrewd? But I feel he is very straightforward. Last time, without a second thought, he stepped in to save me."

Fang Henge said indifferently, "Being deep and shrewd is not a criticism, but a compliment.

With your background, you naturally don't need to be deep and shrewd, just focus on your cultivation, and naturally, someone will protect you.

But in the Demon Cleansing Bureaus across the paths, even if you are the direct disciple of a Garrison Commander, without significant merits, others will not respect you.

Don't think that the colleagues in the Demon Department are truly harmonious.

Even those who greet you with a smile might think of countless ways to kill you in their hearts.

If Han Zheng were not deep and shrewd, he could not have reached this point.

Elder Chu asked me to bring you out to see what the real Martial World, the real Demon Cleansing Bureau is like.

A flower in a greenhouse might bloom, but it can't withstand the storms and rains."

Chu Xinghe nodded gravely and said, "I understand. This trip has shown me things I could never have seen in the capital."

Fang Henge nodded, satisfied.

Chu Xinghe's performance was commendable. He had an honest heart and was sincere, though naive, he was fearless, daring to fight and scramble.

Although he still seemed green right now, with future training, he could achieve something.

At this moment, Han Zheng was unaware that Fang Henge had such a high opinion of him.

On the road, Su Wuming asked, "Brother Su, did you hand over all of Wu Yunfei's incriminating evidence to Fang Henge? Can this person be trusted?"

Han Zheng spoke in a deep voice, "I'm not sure about Fang Henge's reliability, but the Patrol Envoy is definitely reliable.

The Patrol Envoy relies on identifying various issues within the local Demon Cleansing Bureaus to obtain merit.

You could say that as long as they need merit, Wu Yunfei will definitely take action."

Hearing Han Zheng's confident words, Su Wuming felt relieved as well.

The two made their way back to Smoke Wave Prefecture, where the corpses of the demons outside had already been cleaned up by Pei Xiuyuan's men.

Some of the demon corpses could be used for Artifact Refining or even Alchemy.

However, most demon corpses would breed miasma and poisonous gases after rotting, which could lead to problems if not handled properly.

On the city walls, Pei Xiuyuan, Wen Jingyun, and others, despite their exhaustion, hadn't taken a rest and were eagerly awaiting their return.

When they finally saw Han Zheng and Su Wuming's figures, everyone present almost simultaneously breathed a sigh of relief.

"Mr. Han, you're finally back! Was your trip successful?"

Han Zheng leaped onto the city wall, and Pei Xiuyuan and the others hurriedly surrounded him and asked.

"It went fairly smoothly. Although there were some minor hiccups, we managed to return the Jade Pendant and the demon chaos in Smoke Wave Prefecture can now be considered completely eradicated from the root."

Hearing this, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief, especially Pei Xiuyuan and other members of the Demon Cleansing Bureau's Xuanjia Guards.

Wen Jingyun and others from the Martial World could leave anytime, but not everyone else who had to stay behind in Smoke Wave Prefecture.

"Pack Cui Zeyuan's head properly; I need to take it back to headquarters."

Pei Xiuyuan looked surprised and asked, "Mr. Han, are you leaving already?"

Han Zheng nodded and replied, "This time I came to Smoke Wave Prefecture only to assist. Now that the demon chaos has been completely resolved, of course I have to return.

Moreover, I killed Cui Zeyuan, and Wu Yunfei won't just let it go.

Delaying might lead to complications; I also want to head back before they react."

Pei Xiuyuan seemed rather reluctant, and even Wen Jingyun and others from the Martial World did not want Han Zheng to leave.

It wasn't that Han Zheng was so likeable, but they didn't want to go through another experience with a Demon Sweeping Captain like Cui Zeyuan.

If the next person in charge of Smoke Wave Prefecture were to be someone like Cui Zeyuan, they really couldn't stand it.

Han Zheng told Pei Xiuyuan in a serious tone, "Old Pei, you actually have sufficient strength and experience to take charge of Smoke Wave Prefecture. The only thing lacking is your temperament.

After I return, I will recommend to Elder Xu and Grand Commander Wen to let you take charge of Smoke Wave Prefecture.

If you can be in charge here, try to look farther ahead and temper your temper a bit."

Smoke Wave Prefecture now needs a stable Demon Sweeping Captain, not someone like Cui Zeyuan who likes to stir things up.

Besides, Han Zheng even felt a bit sorry for Pei Xiuyuan.

Despite serving under three Demon Sweeping Captains, he was always the perennial second-in-command, never content with each change of supervisor, always getting taken down a peg.

Although this was related to Pei Xiuyuan's temperament, he was indeed quite unlucky.

Hearing this, Pei Xiuyuan's face instantly showed an ecstatic expression, "Thank you, Mr. Han! From now on, I, Pei Xiuyuan, am willing to go through fire and water for you, at all costs!"

Taking charge of Smoke Wave Prefecture had almost become an obsession for Pei Xiuyuan, but unfortunately, over so many years, it had never come to him.

Even after Han Zheng took charge of Smoke Wave Prefecture, Pei Xiuyuan had completely given up on the idea.

Now that Han Zheng had given him hope, how could he not be excited?

Wen Jingyun and others from the Martial World were also all smiles.

They all knew that now Han Zheng had stepped into the Dan Sea Realm, he definitely couldn't continue to stay in a small place like Smoke Wave Prefecture.

Having Pei Xiuyuan take over Smoke Wave Prefecture was better than anyone else.

After all, they were acquainted with Pei Xiuyuan, they had fought side by side, and their relationship was quite good. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom

Most importantly, Pei Xiuyuan taking charge of Smoke Wave Prefecture would certainly act according to the rules set by Han Zheng, without messing things up.
