"Little fellow, you're remarkable!"
The Seventh Ancestor came up to Chu Kuangren and praised him.
The old woman and Qinglan Supreme Being also looked gratified and admiring.
Slaughtering a hundred thousand Demon Cultivators was a feat that even the three of them had never imagined, let alone forging an unsurpassed Battle King foundation afterward. It was simply inconceivable.
Chu Kuangren smiled faintly and said, "After this battle, most of the Demon Calamity in Northern Ridge Dao Province has been resolved. Things will be much easier from here."
"Yes, indeed."
"But I'm afraid the other Saintly Dao Traditions will have their reputations dragged through the mud this time. Those Daoist Seeds won't escape punishment when they return."
Qinglan Supreme Being spoke with a faint smile.
The Saintly Dao Traditions had used this Demon Calamity as a trial for their Heavenly Prides, also hoping they would seize the opportunity to enhance their traditions' prestige.
But no one had expected things to develop to this point.
Chu Kuangren alone had stolen all the limelight. One could even say he had resolved this Demon Calamity entirely single-handedly.
The Heavenly Prides from the other traditions had contributed nothing at all, and the people and cultivators of Northern Ridge Dao Province had seen it all.
Even if they said nothing, the reputations of Ziyang Valley, Lingxu Sacred Land, and the other Saintly Dao Traditions were certain to suffer.
"They brought it on themselves," Chu Kuangren said flatly.
Had these people truly intended to resolve the Demon Calamity for the common people, things would never have reached this point.
Afterward, Chu Kuangren left the mountains and returned to Mountain River City.
Countless citizens stood along both sides of the streets. When Chu Kuangren entered the city, everyone gazed at him with incomparable fervor.
Chu Kuangren was startled.
