Chapter 487: 380

"Forget about those people for now, let’s wait for Brother Chang Qing to return," said Qi Xiangyun, propping her chin in her hand. She simply did not want ordinary people in a chaotic world to suffer more than they had to, at least not until the issue with the alien demons had been resolved—might as well maintain the status quo before that.
It hardly mattered who ruled the world, as long as their strength was sufficient, they could always replace an unsuitable ruler with another.
Qi Xiangyun found this way of thinking quite comfortable, it saved time, effort, and wouldn’t hinder her plans for the future, compared to becoming some sort of emperor. How could power over the whole world compare? After having seen a broader horizon, she no longer put her heart into such matters.
Restoring Qi Family Town to its former prosperity had become her greatest obsession in this world.
Lin Yaoyao walked over to the window, looking outwards: "Although those people are annoying, the more agitated they get, the more it indicates that Brother Chang Qing’s efforts are going smoothly. At least six Supreme Demons are dead for good, Brother Chang Qing is really amazing!"
In a tavern within Qi Family Town, which was not usually very crowded, was now packed to the brim. Furthermore, the townspeople had noticed an ongoing influx of outsiders, which had been a rare sight before.
The specific reason seemed to be related to the Supreme Demon treasure and such. The young Clan Leader of Qi Family Town was the Daughter of Heaven’s Mandate. With the help of the Daughter of Heaven’s Mandate, one could find the Supreme Demon treasure, which would then prosper the human race, allowing them to survive this difficult era surrounded by alien demons.
Among those who arrived in the town were numerous young and outstanding individuals, all of whom had survived the Demon Flower disaster and were not mere stragglers. But in Yang Xingxiu’s eyes, the gathering of these people here posed a problem...
After completing his mercenary task, Yang Xingxiu did not immediately proceed to the next mission that a Dusk mercenary could accept. Who asked for the resolver of the Demon Flower catastrophe to come here?
Thinking about all the trouble the princes and nobility had stirred up in his home world, Yang Xingxiu felt a headache brewing. All those claims about making significant contributions during the Demon Flower disaster, once those rumors reached the subjects of them, he could already imagine their reactions.
It was as if Li Kui had met Li Gui.
And then there were the new rumors now, saying no one was stirring the pot was a lie meant for fools. In just a few days, Qi Family Town had become a new focal point, why else would the Daughters of Heaven’s Mandate gather here? In the rumors, the Supreme Demon treasure was mysteriously linked to the Daughter of Heaven’s Mandate.
The Supreme Demon treasure and the Daughter of Heaven’s Mandate had nothing to do with each other... Oh, people familiar with the Daughter of Heaven’s Mandate might be related, but it wasn’t like the Daughter of Heaven’s Mandate herself could unlock the Supreme Demon treasure. Essentially, it was someone known to the Daughter of Heaven’s Mandate, a Proxy Agent, who had slain the Supreme Demon.
After learning that the Supreme Demon was truly dead, Yang Xingxiu was quite happy. The Supreme Demon’s attribute of undying had been broken, and its absolute nature no longer existed. However, the rumors that rapidly gained traction afterward were problematic. How could there be such fast dissemination of information in a world without the internet, where almost everyone had perished?
This made Yang Xingxiu think of the Supreme Demons that were still not dead; could they be plotting something?
Moreover, this matter was now tied to the ’greater good’ concerning the prosperity of the human race. The common folks hadn’t yet realized what was happening as not much time had passed, but once someone started to guide them, it would be as if they were roasting the Daughters of Heaven’s Mandate alive.
If the Daughters of Heaven’s Mandate did not help in searching for the Supreme Demon treasure, it would be tantamount to abandoning the human race. And would the Supreme Demon treasure actually help the human race? Certainly, but if it were actually found, it might not necessarily be used for the greater good of the nation.
So who exactly was behind this? After learning of the situation, Yang Xingxiu had immediately come to Qi Family Town. Observing the young heroes gathered here, he realized that the situation was even more complicated. Some of these young people belonged to certain factions, while others came with burning passion to help the human race overcome its hardships.
Although pure-hearted individuals were few, they were not nonexistent.
```
This made Yang Xingxiu feel even worse. He could understand the desire to find the Supreme Demon treasure, but this matter really shouldn’t involve the Daughter of Heaven’s Mandate. The Daughters of Heaven’s Mandate clearly did not engage much in this swirling conflict, yet there were those who insisted on dragging them into it.
Yet, those people did not know what kind of existence was associated with the Daughters of Heaven’s Mandate.
So, was this matter guided by the Supreme Demons or was it a trap set by someone who knew more information, specifically designed to ensnare the princes and nobility?
If someone indeed set a trap, then where did the trapper get the confidence to bear the consequences of exposure?
Furthermore, on his way to Qi Family Town, Yang Xingxiu discovered an even more serious problem: the alien demons were becoming increasingly intelligent. Where once you might find only one intelligent alien demon among ten, now two or three out of every ten showed signs of intelligence.
Moreover, these alien demons exuded a clear Supreme Demon aura, and some even displayed characteristics of Supreme Demon servants. All these changes had occurred within just a few days.
Hell.
Zheng Yichen put down the compass in his hand, "Let’s head back, it’s no longer a good time to take action."
In these last few days, he had somewhat deciphered the information on the compass. The compass showed that there were other Supreme Demons around the one it was tracking, clearly indicating that after nearly ten Supreme Demons had died, the remaining ones had completely united and no longer acted alone.
With the united Supreme Demons, getting rid of them was not going to be easy, and Zheng Yichen was running out of time.
A few hours ago, he received a text message from Dusk. Heaven knows how Dusk managed to send a text to his cellphone from ancient times, but the message from Dusk had arrived.
Young man, it’s time to go to work!
After that, he could no longer continue the hunt. Zheng Yichen wasn’t arrogant enough to take on all the Supreme Demons at once. With plenty of time, he could fight them off one by one. With ’Tyrant Body’ activated from Burst Mode, if he couldn’t win, at least he could make a clean getaway.
But he couldn’t show this kind of weakness before he had to leave, otherwise, as soon as he left, those Supreme Demons would target Qi Xiangyun and the others, taking them as hostages and using them as a free pass to survive.
In fact, these past days, Zheng Yichen had instructed Diviners to keep an eye on the situation in Qi Family Town through the use of the compass for divination. If there was anything amiss, he would immediately return.
"That’s good, the opportunity for a successful follow-up attack has already passed," Yi Nan nodded. Exterminating eight Supreme Demons was already beyond expectations. Initially, Zheng Yichen appeared to struggle somewhat, but as more Supreme Demons were killed, dealing with the others became easier for him.
If the Supreme Demons had delayed their unification by another two days, a few more would have died. With more Supreme Demons dead now, the human race’s development space would be larger in the future, and the threat when the remaining Supreme Demons returned to their full power would be smaller.
With most of the Supreme Demons dead, even if they recovered to their full power, there would only be a few rather than a horde.
