While eating, Ye Xiaoyao suddenly felt a sense of familiarity and looked towards the entrance of the hotel, only to see the back of Xu Fan.

“Old Jian, did the man who was eating here earlier give you a sense of familiarity?” Ye Xiaoyao asked in his heart.

“He’s not someone you know, but the Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator who was eating just now has extremely pure spiritual power. He might be a disciple from a reputable sect,” Old Jian replied.

“Oh.” Could it be that I was mistaken?

As Xu Fan altered his appearance, he also changed his soul aura and spiritual power attributes. Generally, people familiar with Xu Fan would find it difficult to recognize him, except for his disciples who spend day and night with him.

Xu Fan teleported to the previously agreed meeting point in the Immortal

“Ah, what bad luck, the Sword King Sect is over 100,000 kilometers away from that Seaside Fairy City.”

“Does the Heavenly Dao really want to pair me with that guy?”

“It seems that in the future I need to find a sect that is farther away from the Immortal City. I finally had over 50 years of peace, I can’t let him disrupt my

tranquil life.” Xu Fan firmly stated.

At this moment, Xu Gang was dining with his wife in a small town.

“My Lord, do you think our group, without even a Nascent Soul stage member, can establish a sect?” Xiao Xi asked. She just wanted to live a peaceful life and give birth to a child for her husband. Unfortunately, despite years of effort, she still remained childless.

“Of course we can, 1 understand our master. After so many years by his side,”

“Our Master just wants to establish a small, secluded sect. He likes to do his own things in peace.”

“Don’t worry, there will be no danger,” Xu Gang reassured her, knowing what his wife was thinking.

Xu Gang brought out a map of the nearby area and asked Xiao Xi, “Where should we go to take a look?”

“l think the small island on that Hundred-Thousand-Li Giant Lake is not bad, but I don’t know if there are any demonic beasts in the water, or how strong they are.”

As soon as Xu Gang finished speaking, the entire small town began to panic.

“The lake’s demonic beast has come ashore, everyone hide!”

“Before the Immortal arrives, no one should go out.”

A stalwart middle-aged man, holding a loudspeaker, ran around the town, shouting as he did so.

Everyone in the town ran back to their homes, hiding in the basements they had dug. It was clear that this was not the first time they had done this.

“Sir, we have to close up shop.”

“This meal is on the house.’

Once the tavern owner finished speaking, he swiftly moved all the tables, chairs, and benches. His actions were so proficient that it was heartbreaking.

“My Lord, what should we do?” Xiao Xi asked Xu Gang.

At that moment, Xu Gang suddenly felt he had become smarter, and analyzed calmly, “The power of the demonic beast should not be great, otherwise this small town would have been long gone.”

“Let’s go check it out, my hands have been itching lately.”

The two figures shot into the sky and flew towards the lakeside.

At this point, about 50 kilometers away from the small town at the lakeside, a large number of demonic beasts were coming ashore and began rushing towards the small town. There were tens of thousands of them, led by several Golden Core stage demonic beasts.

The Spirit Fields and Spirit Fruit Trees on the shore were completely destroyed and devoured by the demonic beasts. The Spirit Chickens, Spirit

Ducks, and Spirit Sheep they encountered along the way were also eaten by

the demonic beasts.

At this moment, Xu Gang, who was in the air, looked at the demonic beasts below, his eyes flashed with excitement. It had been a long time since he had taken action.

“My Lord, there are Spirit Fields down there, do not use large-scale techniques.

Immediately after Xiao Xi finished speaking, a crimson fireball resembling a missile rapidly descended. ‘Nuclear Explosion Technique!’

‘Boom!’

A mushroom cloud rose from below, instantly obliterating half of the demonic beasts. All of the creatures, as if their necks were suddenly restrained, frantically fled towards the Giant Lake. “Still trying to run,” Xu Gang said coldly.

‘Flying Bird Group Killing Skill’

A massive fire cloud appeared in the sky, dyeing it red, and countless birds flew out of it, heading towards the demonic beasts fleeing on the ground and into the lake.

For a moment, it seemed like half of the land below was bombarded. The sounds of explosions were continuous.

As the dust settled and the smoke cleared, Xu Gang looked at the chaotic landscape full of craters and expressed his regret, “It’s a shame there weren’t any Nascent Soul stage demonic beasts. Otherwise, my Divine Ability, the Armstrong Cyclotron Acceleration Jet Armstrong Cannon, would have a proper use.”

Xiao Xi looked at her spouse, speechless. She didn’t have any other complaints except for his tendency to destroy all potential spoils of war during battles.

At this moment, a figure flew quickly toward them from the distance. It was a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator dressed in the uniform of the Elders Association.

“I’m the Deacon of this area for the Elders Association. Are you two new to the Central Continent?” The Nascent Soul Cultivator looked at the devastated land below, scratching his head in annoyance.

“How did Senior tell?” Xu Gang asked, bowing slightly.

“It’s quite clear to me. Most cultivators native to the Central Continent don’t exert this much force when they attack.” The Nascent Soul Cultivator gestured to the ravaged land below as he spoke.

“The fields below are all high- grade Spirit Fields. Cultivating even an acre requires more than a hundred spirit stones.”

“The lake dwelling demonic beasts usually only come ashore once every five

years. As long as the leading beast is killed, the rest will retreat.”

The Nascent Soul Cultivator didn’t go into too much detail, but Xu Gang realized he’d done more harm than good. Looking at the thousands of acres of ruined spirit fields, he began to feel a headache.

“Senior, we can compensate the owners of the destroyed spirit fields with spirit stones.” Xu Gang said, feeling helpless.

“As long as you understand, that’s good. Otherwise, my performance for this year would be ruined,” sighed the Nascent Soul Cultivator, his heart finally relaxing.

At this moment, the villagers, aware that the beasts had retreated, came forward one after another to view the damage to their spirit fields and start tilling anew.

“Oh my goodness, where’s my spirit field gone?”

“How did my spirit field end up like this!”

“This happened during the battle between the immortal and the beasts. Why is it different from before?”

Slowly, despair started creeping onto the faces of the villagers. These spirit fields were accumulated by many generations before they became what they were now, top- grade fields. But now, everything was destroyed.

Looking at the villagers with their despondent faces, Xu Gang felt a pang of guilt. He quickly estimated the damaged areas and took out a Storage Bag, which had been filled with Spirit Stones by Xu Fan during their shopping trips in Shengling State. The stones hadn’t been touched till now.

“Senior, this is 1,000,000 Spirit Stones. I would appreciate it if you could distribute them to owners of the damaged spirit fields.” Xu Gang said, a flash of distress in his eyes. He hadn’t expected that the small reserve of Spirit Stones he had would be gone so quickly.

The Spirit Stones he and Xiao Xi now had left would just manage to cover their teleportation fee back home.

The Nascent Soul Cultivator’s attitude improved noticeably upon seeing Xu Gang readily offering the Spirit Stones. He immediately called for the mayor of the town below to tally the damages done to the fields.

“Senior, we have settled this matter. If there’s nothing else, my wife and I will be leaving.” Xu Gang said, bowing to the Nascent Soul Cultivator after seeing that things were resolved.

“If there are any matters you need assistance with, feel free to share. I might be able to help out.” The Nascent Soul Cultivator replied. He considered it important to befriend someone who could easily offer a million Spirit Stones.

After Xu Gang explained their purpose for coming, the eyes of the Nascent Soul Cultivator lit up.

“If the two of you aren’t in a rush, why not come with me to the Elders

Association? I’ll explain the situation here more thoroughly for you.”

The Nascent Soul Cultivator suddenly transformed into something like a business promoter, his face all smiles..
