I Slay Gods and Demons in the Deceit Night

For some of the high-ranking figures, this Saint Master was already of no use!

Whether the Saint Master could become a pillar of the Human Clan in the future, they did not care!

What they cared about was that if the Saint Master grew too powerful, he would not only suppress the evil but also these ambitious strong humans!

At that time, those to be settled scores with would be these so-called high-level figures who committed countless evil deeds in the dark, seeking their own abilities!

"Once this batch is cleaned up, among the high levels of the Holy Alliance, there will basically be trustworthy people!"

Lin Yan said, "By then, the Holy Alliance will be more stable!"

As his voice fell, he continued, "Wait until I become a Human Martial Saint, until I break the Ultimate Heaven..."

Little White Ape's heart trembled, and its eyes shone brightly, "Master wants to sweep away the evil of the world?"

"Since ancient times, ever since the Deceit Night descended, the evil has fed on humans!"

Lin Yan's face was icy as he spoke, "The New Technique has greatly weakened the erosion of the Deceit Night... and the evil that has fed on the Human Clan should also suffer a counterattack from the Human Clan!"

He gripped the Night Illuminating Divine Sword tightly, saying in a deep voice, "After the return of the Upper Heaven, it will start from the Demon Domain!"

——

The day was bright.

Outside the Pure Land.

Two caravans departed in different directions.

Not only did the caravan members leave with them, but also those who paid silver taels seeking the protection of the caravan.

Most of these people had little ability and were only going to Heavenly Destiny City because of the sealing ceremony of the Holy Alliance.

Among them, few were of noble birth.

Because those of noble birth would surely have guards following them and wouldn't need to rely on the caravan.

Most of them were very young.

The young people had high spirits and great aspirations.

They had no family worries, no livelihood concerns, and yearned for the scenery afar.

Among them, there were also many Martial Artists.

Perhaps from remote areas, but in their hearts, they longed for Heavenly Destiny City, the flourishing of the Human Clan.

Many stayed in Heavenly Destiny City, hoping to make a name for themselves!

Some, however, were struck down and disheartened, ready to return home!

"Among these people, in the area where they come from, they might be geniuses who look down on their peers, but upon reaching Heavenly Destiny City, they realize their own insignificance."

A young man lamented, "For example, us, in the Flame Spirit Prefecture, we're considered top geniuses, and senior brother is even ranked number one in his generation at the Flame Spirit Prefecture!"

Beside him, a young man dressed in long robes had a complicated expression.

He was ranked first in his generation at the Flame Spirit Prefecture, with a cultivation at the Peak of the Qi Refining Realm.

But as soon as he entered Heavenly Destiny City, he encountered Song Fei.

The prodigy of the Song Family in Heavenly Destiny City!

It is said that Song Fei, in the same generation within Heavenly Destiny City, might only barely rank in the top hundred!

He lost to Song Fei!

But Song Fei was beheaded by the Saint Master in one encounter!

There is always a taller mountain!

"Teacher told us to come to Heavenly Destiny City to gain experience; this time, we truly have..."

This young man took a deep breath, saying, "To witness the Saint Master with our own eyes...to see a Human Martial Saint beheaded by the Saint Master with our own eyes! Just with this experience, our teacher would be extremely envious!"

The girl beside him had a peculiar look on her face, whispering, "Actually, before coming to Heavenly Destiny City, senior brother was planning to sign up to enter the Main Hall of the Demon Suppression Department..."

"Cough, cough..."

The young man hastily waved his hand, saying, "Young and ignorant, too arrogant, unaware of the vastness of the heavens! In a place like Heavenly Destiny City, with my bit of skill, my bit of talent, there's no way to make a name for myself..."

He took a deep breath, saying, "I've thought it over, even if I forcefully stay, I won't make a name for myself, only wasting time! In Heavenly Destiny City, even those in the Refining Essence Realm are nothing!"

"A person in the Qi Refining Realm is also a formidable figure, but in Heavenly Destiny City, they might even be performing on the streets."

"Unless one achieves the Refining God Realm, they're just a small character in a place like Heavenly Destiny City!"

"Even if you're in the Refining God Realm, if you're too arrogant and offend some major power, you might end up dead without knowing how!"

"Like that Song Fei, even if our teacher offended him in Heavenly Destiny City, he wouldn't have ended well!"

Saying this, the young man said in a deep voice, "Junior sister, if it weren't for our good fortune, having met the Saint Master, it would have been difficult for us to leave Heavenly Destiny City unharmed!"

The girl's face immediately became complicated, seemingly with anger, regret, shame, but also some defiance!

"Back then, the Marquis Wangxi was beheaded, junior sister shouldn't have stood up, echoing the Saint Master."

The young man continued, "To the Saint Master, we're just one among thousands responding, a drop in the tidal wave... but to Marquis Wangxi's force behind him, by standing out, we've angered them. If they remember us, they could squash us like ants!"

"Talk is cheap; senior brother shouted louder than I did back then?"

The young girl lowered her head, slightly defiant, saying, "I reckon in the beginning, you were shouting the loudest!"

The young man's face was ugly, and he glanced around.

The other junior brothers and sisters nodded.

"After all, our senior brother's cultivation was the highest, with an exertion of True Qi, his voice was louder than ours!"

"And you know, the shout from senior brother, 'Saint Master is mighty,' was the loudest in the arena! I remember the Saint Master even looked our way..."

"Right! I think the Saint Master remembered our senior brother!"

"In the future, if senior brother reaches the Peak of the Qi Refining Realm and applies for the New Technique with the Holy Alliance, in the meritorious service section, include this: 'In Heavenly Destiny City, assisted the Saint Master, shouted Saint Master's might, received a response from the Saint Master'... the New Technique approval is guaranteed!"

"..."

This senior brother hesitated for a moment, then quietly asked, "When applying for the New Technique, is this really feasible?"

The girl grumbled, "No telling if the list of approvals is handled by the force behind Marquis Wangxi, seeing such a line, not only would they send it back, but might arrange for someone to kill you."

"What nonsense!"

This senior brother was both shocked and angry, saying, "Curse you, crow's mouth! I walk upright and am not afraid of anyone..."

With his voice trailing off, he hesitated again, saying, "If I apply for the New Technique and suddenly meet my demise, you must find a way to seek justice for me... I'll leave a will in advance, and you must personally deliver it to the Saint Master!"

"Don't worry, I will, senior brother."

The girl pounded her flat chest with a bang, saying, "A person like the Marquis Wangxi, a Human Martial Saint, was beheaded by the Saint Master... Moreover, the Saint Master vowed! If you were to be held accountable posthumously and died unclear, even if someone behind it were an Elder of the Supreme Pavilion, I believe the Saint Master would surely avenge you!"

With that, the girl continued, "Senior brother, do you have any last words? And you're not that young anymore, perhaps before you die, leave a descendant? I'll go back and arrange for the third senior sister to marry you..."

"Actually, I'm not necessarily doomed, am I?"

The young man had a complicated expression, saying, "Wasn't I just a bit impulsive, responding to the Saint Master with a shout?"

"But you got our young master killed!"

At that moment, two figures emerged by the roadside ahead.

One tall, one short, one fat, one thin.

Both were at the Peak of the Qi Refining Realm!

More importantly, the weapons in their hands glinted fiercely!

Though not Old God's Magical Objects, they were rare lethal weapons in the mortal world!

Even some Martial Artists in the Refining God Realm had weapons merely at this level!

"..."

In an instant, their faces turned pale.

The girl trembled as she spoke, "Senior brother, since you're not giving your last words, I have a few..."

"Shut up! Crow's mouth!"

The young man gritted his teeth and drew his broken sword, saying, "I'm no match, I can only hold them off, you all run... catch up with the merchants ahead! Those two caravans have Heavenly Destiny City's forces backing them, inside there are strong ones in the Refining God Realm... as long as you catch up with them, you'll be safe!"

The Song Family is not among the top families in Heavenly Destiny City, and dare not exterminate these two businesses!

Moreover, these two cannot match a Martial Artist in the Refining God Realm!

"Go quickly!"

The girl had already drawn her sword and went to greet them, shouting, "I'll hold them off!"
