Nine Yang Alchemy Emperor-Chapter 1040 - 1050: Great Demon King

Chu Feng entered the city with Jin Que, without hesitation.

He sympathized with the ordinary refugees but was powerless to help. These policies were internal affairs of the Divine Baihu Kingdom, and as an outsider, he naturally couldn't interfere.

Upon entering Baihu City, Chu Feng was alarmed to find the city equally overcrowded.

The streets were filled with refugees in ragged clothing.

With a Great Demon Level demon bird by his side, dressed in Wind Spirit Battle Robe, Chu Feng exuded an extraordinary aura. He was unmistakably a strong figure, and countless refugees gazed at him with respectful awe.

In times of chaos, only the strong can live with dignity.

Ordinary people, regardless of being officials or wealthy merchants, can only become refugees.

The dire situation made Chu Feng anxious.

He rushed to Longevity Hall as fast as he could.

The business was unexpectedly booming, and Li Shishi was busy inside.

Wu Xuan, the newly appointed shopkeeper, was swamped with work.

Under normal circumstances, Chu Feng would have been delighted by the flourishing business, implying lots of Silver flowing in. Translated to Spirit Stone, it meant cultivation resources.

These could quickly help him enhance his cultivation.

Yet, he couldn't be happy now.

With the nation at risk, humanity faced a critical moment of life and death. No matter how much he earned, what good would it do?

"Boss lady, please give me one thousand Healing Pills! Nothing too good, First-grade Healing Pills will do!" Chu Feng entered the shop, and Li Shishi hadn't noticed him yet.

"One thousand?" Li Shishi was surprised to hear a customer directly purchase so many pills and looked up.

Seeing Chu Feng, her face immediately bloomed like a flower.

"Ah... Master, you're back..." Li Shishi had missed Chu Feng terribly during this time.

When Chu Feng wasn't around, she was living in fear.

Fearing demons invading Baihu City and worrying about Chu Feng's safety. Given Li Shishi's intelligence skills, she likely knew about Chu Feng being struck by the Evil God Curse.

She leaped directly from behind the counter, standing spiritedly before Chu Feng, appearing exceptionally thrilled.

In her eyes, tears glistened.

However, with so many customers and staff watching in the hall, she, being a shy girl, just gazed at Chu Feng silently, not daring to throw herself into his arms publicly.

"You've suffered!" Chu Feng was quite domineering, not caring about others' opinions at all. He directly embraced Li Shishi.

Her body was slightly stiff.

Embarrassed, she whispered, "So many people are watching, let go quickly!" She wanted to struggle but was reluctant to leave Chu Feng's warm embrace. It brought her an unprecedented sense of security.

"Let them watch, you are my woman, everyone in the world knows that," Chu Feng was indifferent. "Come, let's go to the backyard first!"

Chu Feng lifted her in a princess carry, strode through the front hall, and entered the backyard.

Wu Xuan and others watched Chu Feng with admiration.

The master is indeed the master; this kind of dominance and courage is something ordinary people can't possess.

"Alright, tell me, what significant events have happened recently?" Once in the backyard, Chu Feng, holding Li Shishi, couldn't bear to let go. Sitting directly on a stone chair there.

After the initial embarrassment, Li Shishi also particularly enjoyed this affection.

"Where have you been recently, Master? Are you unaware of the significant events happening on the Divine Martial Continent?" Li Shishi asked in surprise.

She hadn't detected Chu Feng's whereabouts for a long time.

She only knew Chu Feng had appeared at Shennong Mountain a year ago, forcing the head of Shennong Mountain's chief to intervene, resolving their grievances.

"I've been cultivating deep in the mountains all along, so I'm unaware of external affairs!" Chu Feng was most worried about the safety of his elder brother and sister-in-law.

Dan State lacks strong figures; any powerful demon invading could wipe out all life in Dan State.

"So that's it! On the Divine Martial Continent, the Demon Plague began erupting massively a year ago. The Ancient Horn Sore Demon led eighteen Great Demon Kings, countless Demon Kings, Demon Generals, and Demon Soldiers, crossing Heavenly God Mountain, invading the Divine Martial Continent. Xuanwu Heavenly Kingdom is the first battlefield, and the situation is grim. It's said that only half the cities and territories remain; the rest have all fallen."

Li Shishi's expression turned solemn as well.

The news was indeed heavy.

As one of the Four Great Heavenly Kingdoms, Xuanwu Heavenly Kingdom's area is quite vast. Yet, it's fallen to only half its cities, with countless dead.

"A severe Demon Plague also erupted in Vermilion Bird Heavenly Country due to the Yin Yang Demon sealed in the Seven Star Cave of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect. Because a group of greedy, ignorant thieves and adventurers destroyed the outer sealing array, the Yin Yang Demon broke free and went on a killing spree. It's said even many Divine Generals of Vermilion Bird Heavenly Country perished. Currently, the Yin Yang Demon has absorbed the essence blood of many human strong figures and its power surged. It's at least at the Great Demon King level."

Another heavy piece of news.

An ordinary Demon King equates to the human Supreme Sword God. A Great Demon King equals Earth Immortal Level.

Vermilion Bird Heavenly Country is reaping the consequences of its actions, having forced out the Ten Thousand Sword Sect.

Now, no one can withstand the overwhelming demon power of the Yin Yang Demon.

"Is there more?"

Chu Feng instinctively held her tighter.

"In the filthy land of Divine Baihu Kingdom, it's said a Blood Demon has emerged. Initially, this demon wasn't powerful. Divine Baihu Kingdom learned of it, and immediately sent a hundred thousand elite troops to eliminate it. However, only a few thousand of them managed to escape. Every person the Blood Demon kills, its strength increases a bit. Now, its magic power is overwhelming, and no one can fight it."

Another formidable Great Demon King.

Undoubtedly, this Blood Demon must have absorbed human essence blood and evil qi to become increasingly stronger.

This was an utterly foolish move by the Divine Baihu Kingdom.

Why send a hundred thousand troops against a Blood Demon? Directly dispatch several powerful Divine Generals; they might have settled it already.

Now it's spiraling out of control.

"In Ancestral Demon Sea, the Demon Race isn't content with silence either. The Three Great Demon Kings, leading countless Great Demons and Little Demons, use Demon Sea Fierce Land as their base, devouring surrounding human territories. Compared to the Demon Clan, the Demon Race's actions are much gentler. Yet reliable intelligence reports say after so many years of recuperation, the Demon Race's strength is no less than the Demon Clan."

Upon hearing this alarming news, Chu Feng's face changed drastically.

The most worrisome thing still happened.

Currently, it's unknown if the Demon Race has invaded Dan State?

"Shishi, do you know the situation in Dan State?" Chu Feng asked anxiously.

"I don't know! Ever since the Demon Plague erupted, it's been nearly a year since I've last contacted my brother in Dan State." Li Shishi's eyes glistened with tears, her mood equally heavy.
