If There Is No Justice in the World, I Will Wield My Blade as Yama!

Chen Fan's gaze was as dark as water as he walked step by step towards the young man in the black shirt.

For some reason, the young man in the black shirt felt his hair stand on end, his muscles tensing up. He watched the young man approaching him, as if a monstrous beast was attacking him.

He had only felt such oppressive pressure from his father, the Mountain Lord.

A strong sense of crisis made him instinctively want to flee!

BOOM!

But before the young man in the black shirt could escape, Chen Fan's fist landed on him. The fearless fist, carrying immense power, struck fiercely!

The young man in the black shirt was sent flying backward, smashing heavily into the wall of the hall behind him, creating a huge gap. He fell to the ground, spitting up large mouthfuls of blood.

"Roar!"

The young man in the black shirt flipped over, revealing his true form: a tiger with black markings all over its body.

"The Mountain Lord has three sons. This Black Tiger is the Mountain Lord's third son, the Black Tiger!" Lu Xuenning said in a deep voice.

"I don't care if he's the Mountain Lord's first, second, or third son. Today, even if the Mountain Lord himself came, he would die!"

Chen Fan strode forward. The Thousand Refined Embroidered Spring Blade, forged from profound iron, was drawn from its sheath. A cold glint flashed as he unleashed the Grand Perfection level Draw Sword Slash, the sharp blade heading straight for the Black Tiger!

"Jinyiwei, are you determined to push things to the absolute extreme today?" The Black Tiger spoke human words, his eyes filled with a complex expression.

He never expected that he would lose his life here just by coming down the mountain for a meal.

"You were the ones who pushed things to the absolute extreme first!" Chen Fan responded emotionlessly. The blade's glow swept out, and the Black Tiger extended his claws, as sharp as steel, to block!

SPLAT!

Chen Fan's blade fell, and one of the Black Tiger's claws was severed. Demonic blood splattered everywhere!

"Awooo!"

The Black Tiger let out a pained howl. The deadly sense of crisis made him dare not fight any longer. He turned to flee Ping'an County, but how could Chen Fan allow him to succeed!

Chen Fan unleashed another slash. The terrifying blade light seemed to tear apart the entire space before him. A massive tiger head was thrown high into the air, then quickly fell, rolling into the crowd of onlookers.

The headless body of the Black Tiger also fell into a pool of blood.

[Killed the Spirit Concealment Realm fifth-level Black Tiger Demon, stole its remaining lifespan of 183 years!]

This was the most lifespan Chen Fan had ever gained from a demon, even more than what he gained from killing the son of the Howling Moon Wolf Demon, a fourth-level Spirit Concealment Realm cultivator, in Black Bear Gully Village.

"You guy, your strength has improved again!"

"First, you killed the brother of the Ape Demon Three Eyes, the White Ape, at Wangchun Tower. Then, in Black Bear Gully Village, you killed the son and nephew of the Wolf Demon Howling Moon. Now, you've killed the Mountain Lord's son, the Black Tiger, in broad daylight."

"You've completely offended the three demons of Black Mountain. How do you feel about that?" Lu Xuenning came to Chen Fan's side and teased him with admiration.

"I can't even imagine."

"The officials of Ping'an County are so afraid of demons and devils!"

"I am willing to wield this Embroidered Spring Blade and bring a clear sky back to Ping'an County!"

"If there is no justice in the world, I am willing to wield my blade and become Yama. If righteousness does not endure, I will turn this into an Asura Field with blood splashing everywhere!" Chen Fan looked into the distance with a firm gaze and said in a deep voice.

"Well said!"

"I truly didn't misjudge you!" From the crowd, Huang Chengyue also stepped out and said loudly.

He had seen it clearly just now. Chen Fan, with his fifth-level Spirit Concealment Realm cultivation, had killed the Black Tiger of the same realm effortlessly. This was simply subverting his understanding!

Generally speaking, the human body is naturally more fragile than that of the demon race. This is especially true in the early stages of cultivation for human martial artists. However, the higher the cultivation realm, the smaller this inherent gap becomes.

In the Spirit Concealment Realm or even the Spirit Aperture Realm, humans are almost never a match for demons in a battle of the same realm, unless they possess a special physique or bloodline, or have mastered a certain ultimate technique, or have extraordinary talent.

Regardless of which category Chen Fan falls into, it is enough to prove that he is a talent!

Lu Xuenning, for instance, is at the peak of the Spirit Concealment Realm. The Mountain Lord's son, the Black Tiger, had just entered the fifth level of the Spirit Concealment Realm. Even so, if they were to truly fight, it would still be somewhat difficult for Lu Xuenning to kill the Black Tiger.

This is even with Lu Xuenning having grown up in Longyuan Prefecture, possessing formidable cultivation techniques and means. If it were a martial artist who came from a less conventional background, even if they were one or even two minor realms higher than a demon, it would still be difficult to kill them!

"He's dead!"

"He's finally dead!"

"Hahahaha!"

"This damned fellow is finally dead!"

"My son!" Constable Liu ran out of his house. Seeing that the Black Tiger was headless, he pointed at the Black Tiger and cried out hysterically.

It was unclear if the tears were of regret or fear, or perhaps a mix of both.

"Constable Liu, this is the time to purge the demons of Ping'an County. If you hesitate now, your wife and children will truly have died in vain!"

"Tell me, where are the demons and devils of Ping'an County hiding?"

Lu Xuenning walked up to Constable Liu and asked.

"There's a group in the County Magistrate's home, another in the County Assistant's home, and one in the Chief Clerk's home. Additionally, the Teaching Official, Master of Ceremonies, and others also have them."

"These demons and devils are very clever. They know that you Jinyiwei and the County Magistrate's constables wouldn't dare search the homes of County Magistrate officials, so they usually hide in the homes of us County Magistrate officials."

"If they want blood food, they either get it through us or go out to hunt for it themselves. They'll devour everything in a household, and then the Government Office will clean up the mess."

"An entire family wiped out means no one will report it to the authorities. Even if someone does, we won't pay attention, and that person will be dealt with by these demons and devils."

"Our families, and even our own lives, are under the control of these demons and devils. Those who disobey have already met ruin."

"When I, Liu, first took office as the County Lieutenant of Ping'an County, I also wanted to be a good official for the country and its people. But look at how rotten Ping'an County has become!"

"Don't you constables, who are responsible for the safety of the County Magistrate's office, feel any guilt?"

"Don't you Jinyiwei, who claim to slay demons and eradicate devils, feel ashamed?"

Constable Liu's voice grew increasingly angry, as if he were venting his pent-up frustration and unwillingness.

It was all helplessness!

If you don't cooperate with the demons and devils, you die!

What else could be done?

"I don't know about the Jinyiwei in the past, but now that I'm here, I will definitely kill every single one of these demons and devils!"

At this moment, Chen Fan said with absolute certainty.

"I don't know about the County Magistrate's office in the past either, but now that I'm here, I will absolutely not let Ping'an County be ravaged by demons and devils!"

Lu Xuenning glanced at Chen Fan and then puffed out her chest as she spoke.

"Good."

"Anyway, this Black Tiger died in my home, and I can't explain it. I'm going to die either way, so I, Liu, will go crazy with you all!"

"From now on, the constables in the County Magistrate's office and the eight hundred county soldiers will all be under your command, Lu Xuenning. I hope you don't disappoint me!"

"If there comes a day when the demons and devils of Ping'an County are truly purged, I, Liu Xuan, am willing to commit suicide and wash away my years of sin with my blood!"

Constable Liu looked at Lu Xuenning and Chen Fan and said in a deep voice.

"Thank you for your support, County Lieutenant!"

Lu Xuenning clasped her fists in a salute.

Perhaps Constable Liu had made many mistakes in the past, but his willingness to cede authority to Lu Xuenning made her feel that he still had a bit of backbone.

Even if this backbone was forced out of him, it was better than nothing.
