Chapter 1375: So Be It

Chapter 1377: So Be It

There was a certain border city located between the Northern Border and the Central Region that, after passing through, one would leave the Northern Border and the bitter cold behind. One would arrive at the Central Region, the dominion’s most prosperous region.

This border city was named Icecross City. Due to its geographical location, it became a trade center for the people of the Northern Border and the Central Region. Because of that, the city was basically a boiling cauldron of voices and had busy traffic at all times.

After walking out of the desolate snowfield, this was the city Xiang Shaoyun had arrived at. Only then did he find out his location. At first, he wanted to rush back to the Ziling Sect, but he had decided against it after some thought. He wanted to first figure out if he had become a wanted criminal among the humans.

Upon his arrival at Icecross City, nobody recognized him. He couldn’t help but mutter, “Perhaps everyone thought that I had perished at the Heavenly Snow Mountain.”

He did not attempt to hide his whereabouts. It didn’t matter if he would be recognized or not. So long as he did not have evil in his heart, he was not a devil. Nobody could change his heart.

In the city, he bought a bowl of warm dumplings from a roadside stall. As he ate, he started thinking about his next steps.

He did not plan to return to the Ziling Sect, as he did not want to bring trouble to the sect. He believed firmly that the sect would be fine with Purple Lightning Marquis there. Since he had arrived at the Central Region’s border, he might as well go to the Central Region and complete a task he had wanted to complete years ago.

He had never forgotten the task, but he had not been able to find any time to do it. Now would be the best time for it. Suddenly, he heard some people near him talking loudly about something, attracting his attention.

“I heard that the Bloodsin City insurrection is ending because the devils are about to invade the dominion soon.”

“That’s right. I heard that the first Bloodsin City is now occupied by Devil Sovereigns and Devil Emperors. No regular person can approach the city. There were even traces of Devil Saints in the city. Looks like the devils are not about to give up on attacking the dominion.”

“As cultivators, we should head for the battleground, kill devils, and build a name for ourselves. Why don’t the two of us head over there right now?”

“I heard that all four Bloodsin Cities are now garrisoned with a large number of experts. With our strength, we’ll only be going to our deaths. We should focus on our cultivation and aim to enter the Emperor Realm as soon as possible. Only then can we head toward the Bloodsin Cities.”

“Not long ago, there were rumors that a devil spy had appeared among humans. Looks like that was merely a warning sign for the devil invasion. I hope the experts of our human race will be able to guard the Devil Domain entrances and protect the peace of the dominion.”

From them, Xiang Shaoyun learned that the Bloodsin Cities were becoming more dangerous. Rumors about him had also spread, but the people here did not seem to recognize him.

“Can humans and devils really not coexist?” muttered Xiang Shaoyun to himself.

“Who dares to speak conceited nonsense? How can humans and devils coexist?” an unhappy voice sounded beside Xiang Shaoyun.

Xiang Shaoyun ignored him and continued eating his dumplings, slowly chewing and immersing himself in the flavor, as though he was tasting the flavor of life.

“Kid, was that you?” asked a coarse man walking over while rolling his sleeves up.

But before he could approach Xiang Shaoyun, Xiang Shaoyun released a force and blasted him away.

After slamming face-first into the ground, the man got back on his feet and shouted, “Everyone, over here. That kid is a devil spy. He even claimed that humans and devils should coexist peacefully!”

The man’s words caused the people around them to grow nervous. They all drew their weapons and looked at Xiang Shaoyun.

Xiang Shaoyun put his bowl down, looked at the man, and asked, “Are you saying that I’m a devil?”

“If you were not a devil, why would you wish for humans and devils to coexist?” questioned the man.

“I was merely rambling to myself. Is that wrong?” asked Xiang Shaoyun.

“Hmph! There is a devilish air about you. You’re clearly a devil, yet you dare to argue your identity? Everyone, kill him and protect our human race!” shouted the man, his face ruthless.

The man wasn’t exactly persuasive, but Xiang Shaoyun went along with it, “If you insist that I’m a devil, so be it.”

Rather than trying to hide, he might as well show himself and see just how many people had evil in their hearts.

“Everyone, look! He admitted to being a devil!” the man shouted again.

“Since he is a devil, it is everyone’s responsibility to kill him!” Finally, someone responded to the coarse man’s call. He immediately attacked Xiang Shaoyun.

He stabbed his sword at Xiang Shaoyun’s throat, clearly intending to kill. At the same time, the coarse man took out a club and swung it at Xiang Shaoyun’s waist. This was the perfect opportunity for him to mount a sneak attack on Xiang Shaoyun.

“If one has evil in one’s heart, one is a devil. You are the devil here,” said Xiang Shaoyun. He caught the incoming sword with his fingers while his body deftly moved aside to avoid the incoming club. He then exerted some strength with his arm and slammed the sword wielder into the club wielder. He used their momentum against them, causing the two to collide and wail in pain.

Xiang Shaoyun showed no mercy and stepped on their legs, breaking their legs and causing them to continue to wail in pain. After breaking their legs, Xiang Shaoyun warned, “Do not randomly claim that others are devils in the future. The two of you are the actual devils.”

He then swaggered off.

But before he could go far, a voice rang out, “You’re the devil, Xiang Shaoyun!”

Xiang Shaoyun stopped walking and turned around to look at the owner of the voice. Seven people that Xiang Shaoyun had never seen before had arrived. From their aura, he could see that they were Soul Foundation Realm cultivators.

“They’re the Seven Sons of Icefrost! Did they say this young man was a devil?”

“The Seven Sons of Icefrost are the top experts of our Icecross City. They won’t lie.”

“Xiang Shaoyun? That’s a familiar name. Where had I heard that name before?”

“I got it! This is the same Xiang Shaoyun from the Heavenly Snow Mountain three months ago! I thought he was dead?”

“So it’s him? Then there’s no mistaking it. He’s still alive? What a lucky bastard!”

Finally, Xiang Shaoyun’s identity was exposed. The people present revealed thick murderous intent for him. They proceeded to surround him, clearly not intending to allow him to leave.

The Seven Sons of Icefrost all raised their swords and surrounded Xiang Shaoyun as well. Their soul foundation energies were locked onto Xiang Shaoyun, finding that he was no longer with any cultivation. Even so, they did not dare to be careless, as he might still have his devil cultivation.

The leader of the seven said, “After the Heavenly Snow Mountain’s battle, the name Xiang Shaoyun was spread all over the world. Today, us brothers are here to challenge your devilish powers. We shall eliminate all evil and defend the sanctity of humans!”
