Chapter 284: The Conclusion of the West Edge

With the help of the cold and gloomy snake, Xuhan didn't have too much trouble and quickly dealt with Meng Xuanyi.
The cold and gloomy snake had swallowed Yan Xuan ye last time and hadn't fully digested it yet.
This time, with the addition of Meng Xuanyi, I suddenly felt a little overwhelmed.
Looking sleepy, before Xu Xing could summon him, he fell into a deep sleep.
Xu Xing put away the Cold Dark Ghost Snake and left the Void Realm, returning to the entrance of the Western Extreme Sect.
Many demon cultivators of the Xiji Sect were slightly relieved when they saw Xu Xing disappear.
However, when they saw Xu Xing reappear again, they immediately became nervous and vigilant.
The mountain protection formation of the Xiji Sect, in Xu Hang's eyes, is actually like a decoration.
Next, Xu Hang took action, broke through the formation, killed the demons, destroyed the mountain, and exterminated the sect.
After a series of methods, there was no opponent that could stand a chance.
Anyone with a cruel personality, who has killed humans or eaten humans, would not be spared by Xu Xing, and all of them would be killed.
On this day, the corpses piled up like mountains and the blood flowed like rivers at the Xiji Sect.
After the destruction of the West Pole Sect, Xuxing obtained twelve blessed lands and forty-seven secret realms.
Among them, some of the secret realms still keep humans.
The humans being kept are treated like pigs, only knowing eating, sleeping, and reproducing every day.
These humans neither speak nor read, and they have no survival skills whatsoever.
Moreover, they do not even have the most basic sense of shame.
Each person is completely naked, lounging or lying down at will in the open space of the secret realm.
Everyday, they look up at the sky, waiting for the demon cultivators to drop food for them.
The so-called food is just some stinky leftovers and rice soup.
Every time they drop the food, the humans below have to offer a few newborn babies as an exchange.
And after these babies are presented, those demonic cultivators certainly won't take care of them.
The reason they want these babies is only because the babies contain lingering innate energy, which can help demonic cultivators in the innate realm to cultivate rapidly, and their flesh is delicious and tender to eat.
Xu Xing released all the humans from these secret realms, and then called on the remaining human cultivators of the Xiji Sect to properly resettle these people.
As for how many of these people can survive after coming out of the secret realms, and how many will die, Xu Xing no longer wants to bother with it.
In Xu's view, it is better to have some people wake up than to have all people be treated as animals and unscrupulously slaughtered.
Even if the cost is that a considerable number of people cannot adapt to the outside world and die.
But Xuxing still feels that it is worth it.
Xuxing occupies the broken mountain gate of the Xiji Sect, sitting on the top of the mountain, waiting quietly and practicing peacefully.
A few months later, the figure of Huo Qilin appeared.
Behind Huo Qilin, there were also several people.
Among them were Tang Yi, Shan Ming, Ji Wei, Tong Yan, Wu Zhiyong, Wei Ling, Zhou Shan, and others.
Huo Qilin came to Xu Xing's side and lay down honestly.
Tang Yi then stepped forward and reported, "Young master, now the entire Western Pole Continent, except for the Ten Thousand Demon Forest where the Demon Temple is located, is under our control by humans."
The conflicts in various regions have also been quelled. We have arranged manpower to settle the areas and handle political affairs.
I believe that it won't take long for complete stability to be achieved."
Xu Xing nodded, "Yes, you have done a great job."
Tang Yi hurriedly said, "Master, you're too kind. The prosperity of the Western Continent is all thanks to your mighty power!"
Xu Xing said, "By the way, I remember there is a force of black monsters within the Yongguo Territory, and there is also a Nascent Soul cultivator behind them. This person is willing to help pacify the war and be under your command, right?"
Single Ming bowed and said, "Reporting to the elder, speaking of that black calamity, a few months ago, after you destroyed the West Pole Sect, you suddenly weakened a lot."
We took the bold move and sent people to investigate, and easily completely eliminated the black calamity.
There were no obstacles at all, not even any monsters of the Golden Core realm, let alone any traces of Nascent Soul cultivators."
Xu Xing nodded slowly and said, "Hmm... Is that so? It seems that this person must have heard the news of my destruction of the Western Extreme Sect and was worried that I would come looking for trouble, so he left early."
Shan Mingdao: "What the senior said is indeed true, it should be so."
Then, Tang Yi and Shan Ming reported some matters to Xu Xing and stepped aside.
Ji Wei and others then approached and saluted Xu Xing.
Xu Xing asked, "What brings you here?"
Tong Yan said, "These people from Xuan Yang Sect are using your reputation to invade our territory and interfere in our affairs under your jurisdiction! You should take care of it too!"
Ji Wei shivered in fear upon hearing these words, hurriedly grabbing Tong Yan and telling him to be quiet, then bowing to Xu Xing and saying, "Um... Xu Fellow Daoist, Tong Yan is straightforward and always speaks without considering the consequences, but he didn't mean to offend you on purpose. Please forgive him and don't blame him..."
Xu Xing said lightly, "It's alright, I'm not the kind of person who gets offended easily by words."
Then, he turned to look at Tang Yi and asked, "Is what Tong Yan said true?"
Tang Yi and Shan Ming immediately became nervous and stuttered, "This...the people below admire your reputation, and some may be eager to achieve merit, so it is inevitable...that similar things may have happened..."
Xu Xingdao: "After you go back, tell everyone in the XuanYang Sect that I am not a member of your sect, and you cannot rely on my influence. No matter who uses my name to do anything, I will not stand up for them."
Also, if someone abuses my name to do evil, once I find out, I will never forgive them!"
Tang Yihao and Shan Ming disappointedly lowered their heads without saying much, just nodded in response.
Xu Xing said again, "If you want to occupy more land and gain more benefits, you can strive for it with your own abilities. I won't interfere."
Turning his head back to Tongyan, he said, "And you, it's the same for you. If you don't want Tang Yi and the others to encroach upon your interests, you can stop them, refuse them, and even resist them."
Said Xu Xing with a serious tone, "However, there is one thing for sure, no one can consider all sentient beings in the world as ants! They cannot see their lives as tools to achieve their own ambitions!"
Otherwise, whoever can surpass me, I will take action and annihilate them!"
Upon hearing this statement, everyone present responded quickly and respectfully, saying "Yes."
Tong Yan's words still sounded somewhat impudent as he loudly declared, "With your words, I can rest assured! Ever since Tong Yan took up arms, I have always fought for the benefit of all humanity! I will never belittle anyone's life!"
Wu Zhiyong and Wei Ling also bowed and greeted Xu Xing.
Wu Zhiyong opened his mouth and said, "Senior Xu... We, the Demon-slaying Alliance..."
Xu Xing said, "The words I just said apply to you as well. However, you can no longer use the excuse of demon-slaying to go around robbing. If there are any repeat offenses in the future, I will make time to visit your Demon-slaying Alliance headquarters!"
Wu Zhi busily said, "Yes, yes, yes! Please rest assured, we will definitely turn over a new leaf from now on and will never do such things again!"
Xu Hang waved his hand, "Alright, you can leave now. I still have guests coming."
A few people respectfully said their farewells.
When going down the mountain, they encountered several people who were going up the mountain.
Among them, the one walking in front was an old man with his upper body bare.
This old man had the cultivation of Nascent Soul stage, but he was tightly bound by a rope magic tool.
Behind it, there is a bundle of thorny golden-threaded wisterias.
Golden-threaded wisterias are a common type of spiritual plant.
They are very sturdy and have poisonous thorns, although not lethal.
However, when these thorns prick a person, they cause extreme pain, even for Nascent Soul cultivators who find it difficult to endure.
And behind this elderly man, there were three women, all of whom had foundational cultivation.
One of the women appeared more mature in appearance, while the other two looked very young.
看到这四人之后，其余几人还只是略略有些讶异，而周山和韦灵却是吃惊道：“钟姑娘，古姑娘，你们这是……”
原来，这四人乃是落霞谷的人，也曾与徐行相识。
That old man is named Zhong Hong, the valley master of the Luoxia Valley. When his life was about to come to an end, it was Xu Xing who gave him the elixir of immortality to prolong his life. However, he harbored sinister intentions towards Xu Xing and planned to make a move against him.
Later, he escaped with the help of Xu Xing's Five Elements Escape Method.
The more mature woman, named Nie Jingrou, is Zhong Hong's female disciple.
The remaining two are Zhong Yixuan and Gu Nanyan, respectively.
At that time, Xu Hang was willing to offer the elixir of longevity because of Zhong Yixuan's sake.
When Zhou Shan and Wei Lingxiang asked, Zhong Yixuan sadly recounted the events of that year to the two of them.
Zhong Hong lowered his head and said with despair, "Everything that happened back then was all my fault! If Daoist Xu still harbors resentment over this matter, then he can take my life to make amends! Truth be told, my life was initially bestowed upon me by Daoist Xu!"
Nie Jingrou's eyes were filled with tears as she gently took hold of Zhong Hong's arm, her expression filled with sorrow.
While Zhong Yixuan comforted, "Grandfather, we came here this time to apologize and make amends. I believe Mr. Xu is a magnanimous person and will not dwell on those past events too much!"
Gu Nan Yan retorted, "Gugu, Xuan Xuan, that's not necessarily true! Your elder brother Xu is now a Yuanying cultivator! Moreover, this Yuanying cultivator is quite extraordinary, even Nascent Soul cultivators can't match him!"
Do you expect people to forgive and forget the grudges from the past? It's uncertain if they would still be willing to even be your good brother Xu!
Anyway, if it were me, if I had kindly saved someone's life and they turned around and repaid me with enmity, there's no way I could easily let them off so generously!
Perhaps I never thought I had this enemy before, but now that this enemy has appeared in front of me, it is convenient to take action and end his life. Wouldn't that be a relief for everyone?"
Xu Xing's voice sounded gentle: "Alright, since you're already here, why bother putting on this act in front of me?"
"You little pigeon demon, back in the day you seemed foolish, but now you've become sharp-tongued," he said.
"Don't you know that there were at least tens of thousands of demonic cultivators who died by my hands? Aren't you afraid that I might just take your life as well?"
Gu Nanyan shrank back in fear, shaking her head and waving her hands repeatedly, saying, "Please don't kill me, please don't kill me! I was just speaking the lines that Xuan Xuan and the others had prepared! If you want to settle the score, go find Xuan Xuan!"
But in the blink of an eye, he betrayed his good friend.
