Chapter 415: Chapter 198: The World is Clean Again
Fang Shuwen feared these types of people the least. He struck directly with A Line.
A moment later, he had the answers he wanted.
When these men arrived, the manor had indeed been completely empty.
However, inside the main hall, they had found five bottles of Elixir Pills.
Antitoxic Pills made up the majority, followed by Healing Pills and Qi-Regulating Pills.
This gang of Water Thieves didn’t know the value of the Elixir Pills, but they hadn’t disposed of them carelessly. Instead, they had stored them away.
Fang Shuwen had Miao Feichan follow their directions and find the Elixir Pills.
Looking at the five bottles of Elixir Pills placed before him, the corners of Fang Shuwen’s mouth curled up slightly.
This place was quite hidden. The white-robed woman from Divine Pill Valley didn’t seem to have any friends. It was self-evident who these Elixir Pills had been left for.
Fang Shuwen picked up the bottle of Healing Pills, took one out, and handed it to Miao Feichan.
"Eat it."
Miao Feichan looked at Fang Shuwen, then at the pill, before putting it in her mouth.
The next moment, the expression on Miao Feichan’s face changed slightly.
She immediately sat down cross-legged and began to circulate the Inner Strength throughout her body.
Fang Shuwen didn’t disturb her. Instead, he killed all the leaders from the Eight Liujing Stockades and threw their bodies outside.
Looking at the courtyard full of corpses, Fang Shuwen grew a little troubled.
This was someone else’s place, after all. He had killed so many people here; it wouldn’t be right not to clean up.
But with so many bodies, where was he supposed to put them?
Although he found it troublesome, what needed to be done still had to be done.
The young woman had left him five bottles of Elixir Pills; clearly, she considered him a friend.
’Killing people in her home and not even cleaning up the bodies—that isn’t something a friend should do.’
And so, Fang Shuwen began moving the corpses one by one.
After Miao Feichan circulated her True Qi for several Circulations, she opened her eyes to find that her injuries had completely healed.
She was dumbfounded. She never would have imagined that a single tiny Elixir Pill could have such a heaven-defying effect!
She had wanted to go out and tell Fang Shuwen the good news, but before she even had a chance to speak, she found herself helping him move corpses...
The two of them worked late into the night, finally managing to pile up all the bodies.
After digging a wide firebreak, Fang Shuwen unleashed Anger Burning Heaven, fused with Fire God’s Fury.
The Fire Force produced by this move was truly extraordinary.
In just a few moments, the corpses were engulfed in a raging inferno...
Fang Shuwen and Miao Feichan sat on the roof, watching the fire to ensure it didn’t spread to the surrounding woods—especially the bamboo grove.
Miao Feichan casually removed a wineskin from her waist. After taking a sip, she handed it to Fang Shuwen.
Fang Shuwen took it without hesitation and took a large swig, looking up at the night sky.
"The world is a little cleaner now."
"...Who is the owner of this place?"
Miao Feichan asked.
Fang Shuwen shook his head.
"I promised them I wouldn’t tell anyone about this."
’Come to think of it, he couldn’t actually remember if he’d ever made such a promise.’
’But the fewer people who knew about the heir of Divine Pill Valley, the safer they would be.’
Seeing this, Miao Feichan didn’t press the issue. Instead, she asked:
"Are we heading straight back to the Eastern Domain now? Or do you have other plans?"
"I do, actually."
Fang Shuwen looked at Miao Feichan.
"What do you think about spreading the news that you and I are traveling together?"
Miao Feichan glanced at Fang Shuwen, considering it for a moment.
"What’s... the point of doing that?"
"It might draw out Dragon Abyss."
"Really?"
"What’s the harm in trying?"
"Then let’s spread the news. But how?"
"I have my ways."
Fang Shuwen waggled his eyebrows at her.
Miao Feichan’s heart skipped a beat for some reason, and she shot Fang Shuwen an exasperated look.
"Making faces like that... And you call yourself the Human World Demon God..."
"..."
The two of them didn’t rest, just sat on the roof and chatted idly.
The fire burned all night long, and they talked on the roof all night long.
...
...
「The next day」
They made a trip to Anyue City but didn’t stay for long.
After they left Anyue City, news about Miao Feichan and Fang Shuwen began to spread.
It spread with incredible speed, reaching every corner of the Northern Domain.
This was partly because any news about Fang Shuwen was a major point of interest in the Northern Domain Martial World.
Many people wanted to know the Human World Demon God’s current situation, and even the slightest whisper of news was enough to set their nerves on edge.
On the other hand, it was thanks to the channels of the Golden Bell Tower.
Since Fang Shuwen wanted to lure out the people from Night Rain Tower, he naturally had to provide clear information.
This was mainly to prevent the Smelling Dew Technique from failing, which would leave the people from Night Rain Tower unable to find them.
To deal with Miao Feichan alone, Night Rain Tower wouldn’t have needed to dispatch many people.
However, the bodies of Liu Hanyan and her companions had most likely been discovered by Night Rain Tower by now.
Combined with the rapidly spreading news of him traveling with Miao Feichan... He imagined that the next time they appeared before him, their numbers would be anything but small.
After all, they were dealing with someone capable of killing the Northern Domain Sword God.
Even the experts from the Central Domain, who considered themselves superior, would surely not underestimate Fang Shuwen.
After setting out from Anyue City again, Fang Shuwen and Miao Feichan were no longer in a hurry.
They traveled at a leisurely pace, but after two days, there was still no sign of anyone from Night Rain Tower.
Night Rain Tower may not have arrived, but an unexpected rain did.
They were now quite far from the Great Ice Glacier, but much closer to the Eastern Domain.
At this time of year, it was already summer in the Eastern Domain, yet this place still felt like spring.
Although it wasn’t evening and they didn’t need to find lodging for the night, neither of them wanted to travel in the rain.
They faintly spotted what looked like chimney smoke rising ahead and headed in that direction, hoping to find shelter from the rain.
When they got closer, they found it was an inn standing beside the old road. Its banner, already soaked by the rain, read: Early Spring Inn.
As they entered the inn, a series of sharp gazes swept over them.
Fang Shuwen paid the glares no mind, but he suddenly sensed a peculiar gaze from the second floor and glanced up.
Standing there on the second floor of the inn was a young man. He was handsome, with a cold and detached air, and carried a weapon wrapped in white cloth on his back. He was looking down at Fang Shuwen with a complicated expression.
Fang Shuwen chuckled at the sight.
"What are you doing here?"
