Task Rewards

Chen Guan could tell at a glance that this Wild Dog's size definitely surpassed the Blood Forging Realm's second layer!

He was currently bound by the Water Turtle Skill and couldn't dodge the Wild Dog's attack at all!

"The Qin Family colludes with demons! Now the evidence is solid!"

Chen Guan looked at the Wild Dog in the air and said coldly.

But Qin Wanshan didn't care at all. "So what if you found out? Once you're dead, no one will know!"

Everyone watched helplessly as the Wild Dog in the air opened its bloody maw and lunged for Chen Guan's throat.

And at this critical moment!

Chen Guan's body suddenly erupted with Dragon Elephant Power, breaking free from the Water Turtle Skill's restraint.

Then his hands moved like lightning.

He grabbed the Wild Dog by the neck and slammed it hard onto the ground!

The immense force made the Wild Dog howl in pain, but it couldn't break free from his grip.

"Looking for death!"

Seeing this, Qin Huan flashed behind Chen Guan with a dagger in hand.

Taking advantage of the moment he was dealing with the Wild Dog, he aimed a fatal strike.

But Qin Huan's movements had already been caught by Chen Guan's eyes.

He directly lifted the Wild Dog and spun around.

Using the Wild Dog's body to block Qin Huan's dagger!

"A paltry trick!"

Chen Guan sneered and kicked Qin Huan squarely in the stomach.

Qin Huan felt as if he had been kicked by a galloping wild horse.

His body flew out like a kite with a broken string.

After snapping the Wild Dog's neck, Chen Guan immediately gave chase.

This scene shocked Qin Wanshan, who was watching from the sidelines. He hadn't expected Chen Guan's combat strength to be so ferocious!

Chen Guan charged up to Qin Huan and slammed his fist into his chest.

The tremendous force shattered his sternum, and his breathing stopped!

"Qin Wanshan, what else do you have to say?"

Chen Guan stood up and stared at him coldly. The surrounding Qin Family members no longer dared to step forward!

Qin Wanshan backed up a few steps, looking at him as if he had seen a ghost. "Chen Guan, what do you want? This is the Qin Family. You wouldn't dare kill me, would you?"

Just as Chen Guan was about to strike, Qin Huan, who had been dead moments before, suddenly rose to his feet.

His eyes turned blood-red, and the skin on his body began to peel away.

Chen Guan had seen this scene before at Tushan.

It was the same situation as when Guo Pin had transformed into a Demon Body, and now Qin Huan was doing the same!

"Let's go, leave the Qin Family!"

Chen Guan keenly sensed that this was an opportunity!

He took Qin Yanran and left the Qin Family directly, while Qin Huan, now transformed into a Demon Body, rushed out at full speed.

"What is this..."

The commoners watching outside were stunned at the sight.

They had thought the Qin Family was about to kill Chen Guan and the others, but they never expected a demon to appear within the Qin Family!

"Everyone, this is the Demon Body cultivated by the Qin Family's Top Expert, Qin Huan!"

"The false accusations that Qin Wanshan and Li Tong made against me earlier are now disproven!"

Chen Guan pointed at Qin Huan and spoke loudly.

The commoners suddenly understood.

They had clearly been deceived by the Qin Family and Li Tong back then, which led them to wrongfully accuse Chen Guan and the others.

Qin Huan roared and charged at Chen Guan.

Seeing this, the surrounding commoners screamed and scattered, afraid that the ensuing battle would catch them in the crossfire.

But the Qin Family's siege was far from over.

Qin Wanshan now stood on the rooftop.

He knew that his and Li Tong's plan had already been ruined by Chen Guan.

So now they had to kill Chen Guan and Qin Yanran quickly—even if the city folk noticed, it wouldn't matter.

"Attack! Kill them!"

At Qin Wanshan's command, dozens more demons burst out from the Qin Family and surrounded Chen Guan.

Many in the Qin Family were shocked by the sight.

Not everyone in the Qin Family had followed Qin Wanshan into colluding with demons, but now the family had been taken over by them!

Seeing this, Qin Yanran couldn't help but speak. "Young Master Chen, let's flee this place quickly—there are too many demons!"

But Chen Guan shook his head. "If we leave, what will happen to the city folk?"

Her question left her speechless.

Then Chen Guan gathered Dragon Elephant Power and charged into the demon horde.

Fortunately, the strongest among these demons was Qin Huan, who had taken on a Demon Body; the rest were merely at the third layer of the Blood Forging Realm.

"Consume lifespan, upgrade Pecking Sparrow Strength."

As Chen Guan looked at the demons before him, a sound rang out in his mind.

[Consumed seventy years of Demon Lifespan. Pecking Sparrow Strength upgraded to Grand Completion.]

[Pecking Sparrow Strength power increased by sixty percent.]

[Pecking Sparrow Strength (Mortal Grade High Rank). Lifespan required for next stage: 0/120 years.]

The system's prompt echoed in his mind.

Inner force surged into his dantian.

Chen Guan punched a demon flying with one blow, then quickly retreated a few steps.

He flipped his right hand, and a dozen small stones appeared in his palm.

Without a moment's hesitation, he hurled them at the demons.

The stones struck the enemies with a thudding sound.

The immense power contained within pierced straight through the demons' bodies, blood spilling across the ground.

Pecking Sparrow Strength was the only group attack and ranged attack among Chen Guan's martial arts.

Facing these dozen or so demons, boosting Pecking Sparrow Strength was the most effective move.

[Slain Blood Forging Realm second layer Gray Wolf. Rewarded Demon Lifespan: sixty years.]

[Host has slain a total of twelve demons. Total Demon Lifespan rewarded: six hundred and eighty years.]

The system's prompt sounded again, bringing a smile to Chen Guan's face.

Now he had enough Demon Lifespan to advance his realm again, and there was still the mission reward's Demon Lifespan to come.

Aside from Qin Huan, who had a Demon Body, all the remaining demons had been slain by Chen Guan.

Chen Guan stepped into Whirlwind Wind Steps, stirring a gale around him that pinned Qin Huan in place.

"Dragon Elephant Fist!"

Chen Guan's fist slammed into Qin Huan's head with irresistible force.

The tremendous power made Qin Huan's head explode, killing him instantly.

[Slain Demon Body. Rewarded Demon Lifespan: two hundred years.]

[Successfully slain all demons of the Qin Family. Mission reward: three hundred years of Demon Lifespan.]

This was the most Demon Lifespan Chen Guan had ever obtained since acquiring the system.

He planned to check his system panel—after all, Qin Wanshan was still on the rooftop and couldn't escape.

But before he could open it, hurried footsteps came from not far away.

The City Guard Soldiers of Qingshi County rushed in from a distance.

A silver-glowing spear aimed straight for Chen Guan's vital points.

"Fine, Chen Guan! Not only do you collude with the Tushan demons, you even attack the Qin Family—do you really think Qingshi County has no one left?"

The leading general rode out on a tall horse.

His face was full of smug satisfaction.

"Nonsense. The people saw clearly—it's your County Office and the Qin Family who colluded with demons. What does that have to do with us?"

Qin Yanran's words meant nothing to the general.

He raised his spear and thrust it down from above, straight at Chen Guan's heart.
