Evil does not triumph over good!
The golden dragon is a symbol of positive energy.
Yin Di was not a fool; he knew he was no match for Cheng Xiaofan.
Of the Thirty-Six Stratagems, fleeing was the best option.
*Hmph!*
But as Yin Di took to the air and turned to flee, a loud dragon's roar echoed from behind him.
A golden afterimage appeared in front of him, blocking his path.
"Kid, I surrender, alright?"
Yin Di shouted in desperation, "We don't have any grudges between us."
"Always leave a line for a future encounter."
"Please, don't push me to my death, okay?"
*Boom!*
Cheng Xiaofan ignored him completely and punched Yin Di in the chest.
"Ah—"
Caught off guard, Yin Di took the blow, let out a soul-piercing scream, and fell from mid-air.
He landed heavily on the ground.
He felt as if his internal organs had been shattered.
He coughed up another mouthful of blood.
Cheng Xiaofan spun in mid-air, transforming back into human form, and drifted down to the ground.
Yin Di angrily yelled at Cheng Xiaofan, "Kid, I've surrendered to you. Why don't you have any martial ethics and still attack me?"
Cheng Xiaofan laughed and said, "Yin Di, you must be trying to kill me with laughter!"
"Talking about martial ethics with someone like you is like discussing tenderness with a fierce wolf."
"Back in the Qing Dynasty, as a bodyguard to Emperor Qianlong, you relied on imperial protection and committed countless wicked deeds in secret, didn't you?"
"How many innocent girls did you ruin to cultivate your evil arts?"
"How many righteous figures in the martial world did you kill to show off your strength?"
"Your sins are too numerous to count!"
"You think I'll let you go now that you want to surrender?"
Yin Di cried out, "Kid, you're slandering me!"
"You weren't even alive in the Qing Dynasty, how do you know about my affairs?"
Cheng Xiaofan sneered, "I can see it from the aura you exude."
"There was a righteous man named Zhao Fakui whom you killed, along with his entire family of sixty-three, big and small. You wiped them all out."
"Zhao Kui's elderly, white-haired parents knelt before you, pleading repeatedly for their six-year-old grandson."
"But you not only refused, you tore the two children to shreds in front of their faces."
"Think about how cruel and vicious you were back then!"
"You—"
Yin Di was stunned.
He never imagined that Cheng Xiaofan knew so much about what happened in that era.
This guy was simply not human!
He asked fearfully, "What are you going to do to me?"
Yin Di knew very well that with his evil arts, he was no match for this young man.
With every step Cheng Xiaofan took towards him, he felt an overwhelming sense of suffocation.
This suffocating feeling prevented him from unleashing any of his evil arts.
Cheng Xiaofan's eyes turned cold. "I'm going to tear you apart!"
"Keeping someone like you around will surely bring harm to society!"
As soon as he finished speaking,
Cheng Xiaofan's body suddenly grew to over twenty feet tall.
He stood like a majestic iron tower before Yin Di.
At that moment, Yin Di trembled uncontrollably.
He even wet himself.
Heavens!
Who is this person!
He grew so tall all of a sudden?
He could only look up at Cheng Xiaofan's face.
That stern face exuded a profound, cold, and resolute demeanor.
Seeing it, Yin Di felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.
From the inside out, from his feet to the top of his head, he felt an icy chill.
"Please, Great God,"
Yin Di suddenly prostrated himself at Cheng Xiaofan's feet and wailed, "Please spare me. I promise I'll never do bad things again."
"I guarantee I will be a good person!"
"Oh, if you spare me, I'm willing to be your follower."
"If you tell me to go east, I won't go west!"
"If you tell me to move bricks, I will definitely not move tiles!"
"As long as you let me live, I will obey your commands my entire life!"
In an instant, Yin Di's face was covered in snot and tears, making his features unrecognizable.
"Yin Di, don't play the victim in front of me!"
Cheng Xiaofan said with a cold laugh, "The heavens have seen all the wicked deeds you committed back then!"
"Now is the time for retribution. If I let you go, even heaven will blame me."
"You should go and reunite with your descendant, Yin Laorou, in the underworld!"
*Bang!*
He kicked Yin Di flying into the air and caught him.
Grabbing him by both legs, he tore him in half and threw the remains to the ground.
Cheng Xiaofan glanced coldly at the corpses on the ground.
He called out, "Potian Eagle!"
"Chirp!"
Potian Eagle flew to his side.
Cheng Xiaofan said calmly, "Go and call the wolves from the mountains to clean up the bodies on the ground."
Potian Eagle acknowledged and immediately flew away.
Cheng Xiaofan didn't bother to use his demonic bone knife to dispose of the bodies.
In a flash,
Potian Eagle returned.
Dozens of wolves ran out from the dense forest behind.
They abruptly stopped when they saw Cheng Xiaofan standing there.
They immediately bowed their forelegs respectfully, paying homage to Cheng Xiaofan.
As the new Shennong Emperor, Cheng Xiaofan possessed an aura that commanded the awe of all wild animals.
Seeing the scene, Cheng Xiaofan raised his hand slightly.
He said, "You don't need to be so formal in front of me."
"These are people who deserve to die. Do whatever you wish."
With that, he turned around.
He smiled at Potian Eagle and said, "Take flight!"
"Chirp—"
Potian Eagle immediately soared into the sky.
Cheng Xiaofan leaped up, transforming into an afterimage that pierced through the air and flew into the sky, landing lightly on Potian Eagle's back.
Humans have their language, and wolves have theirs.
"Roar, such a powerful human!"
"So fierce, I'm so envious. When can wolves fly like that!"
"Brother Wolf, don't dream. That's not something we wolves can do!"
"Yes, look at that human's aura, it's truly formidable."
"He can fly because he's a god!"
"If he's not a god, how can he ascend to the heavens!"
...
"Chirp—"
Just then, the sun had completely set in the west. Potian Eagle carried Cheng Xiaofan, circling above Zhuxi Village.
The fiery clouds filled half the sky.
The beautiful Zhuxi Village, bathed in the afterglow of the setting sun, revealed a unique charm.
The cooking smoke above the village entrance had dissipated, and the aroma of rice wafted through the village.
This paradise-like village could no longer tolerate people with malicious intentions trespassing freely.
It was at this moment that a new idea popped into Cheng Xiaofan's mind.
