Chapter 1215: Chapter 737: Return to Shenxu Mountain_2

The seven Demon Venerables, along with myself and the garrison of Southern Defense generals, harnessing the Emperor’s Aura, even if not surpassing that Southern Emperor, at least there is hope to keep him outside the Divine Dynasty.

Unless the Great Freedom Bodhisattva personally intervenes.

Otherwise, he is determined to hold the Great Nan Continent.

At this thought, Shen Yi closed his eyes, his mind slightly moved, and a total of 6200 kalpas of Demon Lifespan quickly faded away, flesh and blood poured into the Town Stone, and the terrifying figures of four Demon Venerables quietly appeared in the Ten Thousand Demon Hall.

“Guard the Southern Continent well, till I return.”

“Reporting to my lord, we obey!”

…

A ravine stretching tens of thousands of miles brutally split the earth in two.

When this scene met the eyes of a few figures high in the sky,

their pupils shrank, even their fingertips trembled lightly.

The reason that young man stayed in Jianyang Prefecture, indeed, was due to receiving early information.

Even Ye Lan, who was closest to him, knew nothing at all.

Now it seems the remaining Demon Venerables truly came to Jianyang Prefecture, while this group of old beings stood foolishly in Songfeng Prefecture watching a night’s worth of drama.

“I am useless!”

Yan Lanting suddenly let out a low roar, his eyes already bloodshot.

He once promised everything would be fine, and tricked that young lad under his command, yet when real issues arose, whether it was the Demon Suppressing Tower, the Bodhi Sect’s scripture transmission, Songfeng Prefecture’s raid, to today’s catastrophe at Jianyang Prefecture, when was he ever there?

When was it not that young lad bearing it all alone!

Yang Mingli’s dry lips moved, unable to squeeze out a single word.

Feng Xi watched the distant, silent retreating figure of Ye Lan, biting her teeth fiercely, turning to glower at the two: “If the Southern Continent is breached, the longer you stay here, the more lives you bury in this city!”

Despite her own worries over Nanyang’s safety, there was no time left for lamentation under such circumstances.

The group moved again, progressing along that glaring rift.

Until they saw Ye Lan’s stunned, floating back in their line of sight.

Yan Lanting cast his eyes forward, only to find that the horrific abyss unexpectedly stopped abruptly in front of Jianyang Prefecture, as if severed by an invisible giant hand.

In their view, the majestic Prefecture City still stood, the mottled city walls soaring, unmarred in any way!

“This…”

Yang Mingli finally uttered a word, incredulously glancing to both sides.

“Enter the city first!”

Yan Lanting was equally dazed for a moment, then, his body moved again, heading towards the city.

Before they landed, their ears were filled with the lively and noisy voices of the townspeople, nearly every sentence included the four words “General Nanyang”.

“The city was not breached, it’s been defended.”

Feng Xi looked back in astonishment at the towering city walls.

Even though nearly ten days had passed, these townspeople were still tirelessly discussing the event of that day, constructing a vivid scene in the minds of the likes of her.

Three mountainous and grand Great Demons suddenly descended outside the Prefecture City.

A black Wang Yang engulfed the sky curtain.

Just as the land was about to plunge into destruction, a young man in black quietly stood atop the city wall, the brilliant light torn through the Black Sea, illuminating the sky, and the immeasurably tall golden shadow wielded divine and Buddhist magical artifacts, subduing them one after another upon the evil.

The Great Demons, with their earth-shattering presence, were subdued without raising the slightest ripple, being slain one by one.

And the one who wielded such divine power was not the Immortal Venerable of Gods or Buddhas, nor disciples of Great Sects, but the general named Nanyang, appointed by the Divine Dynasty Emperor to the Southern Continent.

“Three Demon Venerables, slain by him alone?”

Feng Xi swallowed slightly, knowing that while there may have been some exaggeration in the words of the townspeople, the factual content was undoubtedly true.

Not only stopped them but did so with ease, otherwise, the city walls wouldn’t have remained undamaged.

“…”

Yan Lanting slightly lowered his gaze; he was aware that Shen Yi had once slain the Thousand-Armed Bodhisattva and heard from Zhi Kong about the Shenxu Ancestor also falling to the young man’s hand.

But these two had only completed the three-three transformation as Bodhisattva Immortal Venerables.

The fearsome ape face and Black Sea mentioned by the townspeople suddenly reminded him of the Nether Sea Ape King among the three Great Demons who fled to the wilderness.

This one had already ascended to the fearsome six-six transformation before fleeing.

“What actually happened, why not just ask directly!”

At this moment, Yang Mingli’s face shone brilliantly, even the decay that shrouded him quietly receded.

Initially, they planned to promote Nanyang to contend with the Heavenly Pride of the Great Sect, seeing this youth as a beacon of hope for the Great Nan Continent. However, after successive major events, they suddenly realized this was no mere beacon, but a blazing sun!

The three hurried towards the Shen Mansion.

Seeing Ye Lan already within the mansion, beside him still stood Monk Zhi Kong.

“This humble monk meets the esteemed gentlemen.”

Before any could speak, Zhi Kong promptly said, “General Nanyang anticipated your arrival, therefore sent this humble monk to await you here. Please rest assured, though the demon calamity is not yet wholly resolved, there is already room for maneuver.”

“As for General Nanyang, he has some trivial matters to attend to, and will have to step away briefly but will return soon.”

“Please, all of you, continue to firmly guard the Southern Continent.”

With a few simple words, the suspicion in the hearts of the garrison of Southern Defense generals was confirmed.

Though equals, and these few had held the title of garrison generals far longer, in the face of Shen Yi’s words, which though subtle, were indeed in the manner of an order, none of the three gentlemen voiced any objections.
