A Chance Encounter on the Way Home, Demon Race Guerrillas
In the vast wilderness stretching thousands of miles between Fire Crow County and Cuckoo Town, Kong Wenxuan and his group, aboard the "Five-Colored Peacock Feather Boat," had already left the territory of Fire Crow County and entered the skies above this desolate land, flying towards Cuckoo Town.
Kong Wenxuan stood on the "Feather Boat" and looked down at the mountains, rivers, and wilderness below. He could also see groups of wild Bloodline Lineage heading towards Fire Crow County.
Clearly, the "Fire Crow" Ya Household, having advanced to the Seventh-Grade True Spirit Lineage, continues to attract more Bloodline Lineage to join them.
At the same time, looking down at the desolate land, some thoughts couldn't help but pop into his mind:
Now that the Ya Household has advanced to Seventh-Grade True Spirit Lineage, they will likely expand their territory in Fire Crow County again. Will they take over these desolate lands, directly connecting Fire Crow County and Cuckoo Town into one?
If that's the case, then Peacock County and Fire Crow County will actually be closer together.
"Um?"
As Kong Wenxuan was pondering these thoughts, he suddenly sensed something and looked up ahead. He sensed the sounds of battle in the distance.
"Everyone on alert! There's fighting ahead!"
Kong Wenxuan immediately ordered the clansmen on the "Feather Boat" to be on high alert.
Immediately, the expressions of the third aunt, fifth uncle, eldest brother, and others who were piloting the "Feather Boat" changed, and they each summoned their refined "Five Elements Divine Swords" and "Five Elements Talisman Slips" to become vigilant.
Lili!
A clear Peacock cry rang out, and all the formations and restrictions set up on the "Five-Colored Peacock Feather Boat" were activated. Large swaths of five-colored light flew out from all parts of the "Feather Boat," condensing and manifesting a "Five-Colored Peacock" light and shadow on the "Feather Boat."
This "Five-Colored Peacock" spreads its wings and displays its tail feathers, each one resembling a "Five Elements Divine Swords," and its outstretched wings are surrounded by a large amount of five-colored sword light.
As the "Five-Colored Peacock Feather Boat" flew forward, the image of the "Five-Colored Peacock" flapped its wings in response. A large amount of five-colored sword light and five-element sword Sword Qi swirled around the wings, tail feathers, and body of the "Five-Colored Peacock," creating a small Sword Qi storm that shredded the surrounding air and light.
This is the "Five-Colored Peacock Feather Boat" newly forged by the Kong Household. Unlike the "Peacock Feather Boat" passed down from their ancestors, it incorporates the inheritance of the "Five Elements True Scripture" and can respectively condense and manifest two strange phenomena: "Sword Screen Peacock" and "Dharma Screen Peacock", both of which have powerful attacks.
The "Five-Colored Peacock Feather Boat" that Kong Wenxuan and the others were riding this time was equipped with the refining formation and restrictions of the "Five Elements Divine Swords". Therefore, it was able to condense the "Five-Colored Sword Screen Peacock" phenomenon and could stimulate and control a large number of five-colored sword lights and five elements Sword Qi energies, which were extremely lethal.
As the "Feather Boat" advanced and approached the battleground, Kong Wenxuan was able to clearly see the situation on the battlefield.
However, it turned out that two Demon Race, leading a group of over a hundred Demon Beast and birds, were besieging the territory of a wild Bloodline Lineage.
The protective array of that wild Bloodline Lineage has been breached, and Demon Race and Demon Beast are rampaging through their territory, devouring and plundering bloodline cultivators and ordinary members of their clan.
Upon seeing this, Kong Wenxuan frowned deeply. Although he had long anticipated that as more and more Demon Race and martial artists invaded the "True Spirit Realm," and more and more Demon Race and martial artists were scattered, some of Demon Race would eventually wander to various counties and become a threat to local security. However, he did not expect that these Demon Race would be seen again in Bifang Commandery so soon.
Since these Demon Race figures have already appeared in the wilderness between "Fire Crow County" and "Cuckoo Town," how could it be far off that various fleeing Demon Race and martial arts practitioners have appeared in the "South Lake Mountains," even in Peacock County, and even throughout the entire Bifang Commandery?
"What a hassle!"
Kong Wenxuan couldn't help but sigh. If the enemy invaded, they would gather in the "Eastern Forest Great Marsh" and engage in a fierce battle of attack and defense, with soldiers fighting soldiers and generals fighting generals. Even though the battles would be brutal, they would still be easier to deal with.
But now, the Demon Race and martial arts practitioners have scattered in all directions, breaking up into smaller groups and hiding in the wilderness, then waiting for an opportunity to attack various places. Although the damage and threat they cause seem much smaller, they are also much more difficult to defend against.
If such scattered guerrilla warfare continues in large numbers, the accumulated threat and damage will certainly be considerable.
"I just don't know if the prefectural government has any countermeasures in mind."
Kong Wenxuan's mind raced with thoughts, but his hands moved swiftly. He immediately formed a sword incantation, and the Third Tier "Crimson Fire Divine Sword" flew out from his Purple Mansion, disappearing from sight as if by teleportation. The next moment, it reappeared on the battlefield in front of him, like a crimson meteor, slashing towards the two leading Demon Race in the field.
The two Demon Race, one at the Third Tier and the other at the Second Tier, were utterly helpless against Kong Wenxuan's "Crimson Fire Divine Sword," which struck at nine times the speed of sound.
First, the Third Tier Demon Race race member tried his best to activate his defensive demonic artifacts, Bloodline Divine Ability, and the strength of his skin and bones to resist the sudden "crimson sword light". Then, he was cut in half along with his demonic artifacts and died on the spot.
Then the Second Tier Demon Race was even worse off. Before it could even react or activate its various techniques, it was taken away along with the "crimson sword light" that had slain the Third Tier Demon Race.
Boom! Boom! Rumble...
Only then did the thunderous sound of the "Crimson Fire Divine Sword" breaking the sound barrier resound in the air.
The remaining Demon Beast and birds, lacking intelligence and wisdom but possessing the instinct to fear death, scattered in panic under the thunderous sound. They dared not remain in the breached Bloodline Lineage territory to plunder and devour cultivators and mortals, and fled in all directions with screams and cries.
Lili!
At this moment, the "Five-Colored Peacock Feather Boat" had already flown close to the battlefield. The Kong Household family members on the "Feather Boat" also saw the tragic state of the wild Bloodline Lineage's territory below. They immediately activated the formations and restrictions of the "Feather Boat" and launched an attack on the scattered Demon Beast and birds.
The "Five-Colored Sword Screen Peacock" that condensed on the "Feather Boat" raised its head and let out a clear cry. Its wings flapped and its tail feathers swayed, and immediately a large number of five-colored sword lights and five elements Sword Qi rushed down from the sky like a waterfall of sword light and Sword Qi, slashing at the fleeing Demon Beast and birds.
Meanwhile, Auntie, Uncle, and Eldest Brother all unleashed their Five Elements Divine Swords and Five Elements Talisman Slips on the Feather Boat, attacking the Demon Beast and birds.
Kong Wenxuan merely activated the "Crimson Fire Divine Sword," directly slaying several Third Tier Demon Beast and birds among the scattered Demon Beast and birds. He left the remaining First Tier and Second Tier Demon Beast and birds untouched, while the Free Clan members, along with the "Five-Colored Peacock Feather Boat" formation and restrictions, swiftly annihilated them.
Soon, the Demon Race and Demon Beast that had breached the territory of the wild Bloodline Lineage were wiped out by the Kong Household.
The surviving bloodline cultivators from the Bloodline Lineage, which had suffered heavy casualties, rushed over and bowed to the Kong Household members to express their gratitude for saving their lives.
Impatient with dealing with these people, Kong Wenxuan sent his elder brother Kong Wenzhang and Kong Huancai to handle the situation, while he took out a "communication Jade Slip" and transmitted the situation and information to Ya Zhaoying.
This place is located between "Fire Crow County" and "Cuckoo Town," essentially the Ya Household's backyard. Whether it's the Demon Race attack or the wild Bloodline Lineage attacked by the Demon Race, it's best to leave it to the Ya Household to handle.
