Chapter 193 The Demon Clan's Withdrawal, An Unknown Conspiracy
The great battle had ended with the departure of the demon race, and under the command of the powerful town general, many warriors began to clean up the battlefield.
The bodies were carried back into the city and buried in the Heroes' Tomb.
The corpses of the slain monsters were skinned and deboned. Their hides were excellent defensive items, their bones could be ground up and made into weapons using special methods, and their edible flesh was considered a great tonic to nourish the blood and qi.
After removing all usable parts from the body, the remaining waste was burned to prevent the spread of the plague.
At this moment, the golden light that Fang Fan was shining all over his body had been withdrawn into his body, and one could not tell the power contained within him just by looking at his appearance.
Led by Teng Xingwen, the group finally got a close look at the legendary young man before them.
In a short period of time, miracles kept happening. He leaped from the Grandmaster realm to the Heavenly Gate and entered the path of invincibility.
"Fang Fan, what happened today has truly opened our eyes!"
"In this great battle, you slew two star-level monsters, making you a true hero of Jianghai City."
"This caused considerable damage to the entire demon army."
Teng Xingwen reached out and placed his hand on Fang Fan's shoulder, his eyes filled with relief and surprise. The young man in his eyes was so young, yet he had already reached the same level as them.
He has achieved remarkable success at a young age!
This great battle would never have ended so easily if Fang Fan hadn't suddenly emerged as a dark horse.
"Young man, greetings to all esteemed officials."
Upon seeing the arrival of everyone, Fang Fan did not put on any airs and spoke respectfully.
"Hahaha, we can't possibly accept that!"
"Who knows, maybe in the future I'll need to call you 'sir'!"
Teng Xingwen and the others wisely avoided Fang Fan's salute; at the same level, there was no need for such cumbersome formalities.
Moreover, they had all seen and remembered Fang Fan's talent. It wouldn't be long before his strength increased dramatically, and it was only a matter of time before he surpassed them. Therefore, they dared not accept this gift.
"You flatter me, sir. I, Fang Fan, am not worthy of such praise. I have already done more than enough to reach this point."
"This salute is on behalf of all the people of Jianghai City. If it weren't for the esteemed officials risking their lives to stop that star-level monster, Jianghai City would have been completely destroyed in this wilderness."
Fang Fan spoke again.
Upon hearing Fang Fan's words, everyone exchanged glances, feeling gratified. It seemed that the newly appointed town general, Fang Fan, was not difficult to get along with.
I originally thought that because of his great talent, he would be somewhat arrogant.
"General Fang Fan, let's set aside the formalities for now. What are your thoughts on this sudden invasion of the Jianghai region by demonic beasts?"
Teng Xingwen's expression suddenly turned serious, and Fang Fan, seeing this, looked in the direction the monsters had retreated, a hint of solemnity appearing on his face as well.
From the battle, he realized that the demon army did not actually intend to conquer Jianghai City.
Killing the demonic beast Teheng was his last test, to see how the five-star demonic beast would react—whether it would endure or take action.
However, to his surprise, he watched helplessly as a powerful force was wiped out here, and he was only angry, without giving the order to start another war.
This further illustrates that the matter hidden within the Bone Tower is more important than conquering Jianghai City.
Or rather, Jiang Haicheng's survival played a crucial role in the subsequent conspiracy of the demon race.
In that instant, Fang Fan thought of many things.
He merged some of the demon's fragmented memories and learned some secrets of the demon race, but the two were not connected at all.
"The fact that the demon king did not make a move during the sudden attack on Jianghai City by the demon race is a big mystery. Moreover, even though the Bone Tower suffered such a great loss, it still refrained from making any further moves."
"I suspect that the demon race may be plotting something behind the scenes, something that could be even more important than Jianghai City."
Fang Fan paused for a moment after saying this, then continued.
"Of course, these are just my guesses. Whether they are true or not requires further investigation."
Upon hearing Fang Fan's words, everyone thought to themselves, "He is indeed a person of exceptional talent and keen insight. Even at such a young age, he has already discerned the extraordinary nature of the matter."
"General Fang Fan, your guess is similar to ours!"
"We also suspect that the demon race is plotting something big behind the scenes."
Teng Xingwen felt somewhat heavy-hearted. Although the demon army had already withdrawn, he couldn't be happy. The demons' scheme must have involved a wide range of people.
Are you wondering why the city lord isn't in Jianghai right now?
Teng Xingwen continued.
"It's quite a coincidence, I heard that the city lord's disciple also came from your Wind and Fire Martial Arts School."
"Unexpectedly, the Wind and Fire Martial Arts Academy has suddenly produced two unparalleled geniuses!"
"The city lord's temporary departure was to allow Fang Dao to be promoted to town general."
Teng Xingwen was unaware of the relationship between Fang Dao and Fang Fan, and City Lord Gu Ming did not spread the word, treating it merely as a coincidence.
However, among the powerful generals of this town, there was someone who knew that it was Cao Gaochang.
However, seeing that Fang Fan had advanced to the rank of town general and that his strength had surpassed his own, he did not reveal the connection between them, but this did not diminish his shock at the moment.
He knew Fang Fan's talent perfectly well; the city lord himself had admitted that Fang Fan's meridians were incapable of cultivation, and that he would never be able to break through to the Grandmaster level in his lifetime.
However, he never expected that during his time in the Heavenly Prison, his strength would undergo a tremendous change, and he even broke through to the Town General realm under his own eyes.
One possibility is that Fang Fan possesses extraordinary talent, a special physique; another is that he later obtained a great opportunity.
Fang Fan didn't notice Cao Gaochang. Of course, he knew why the city lord had left; Fang Dao had already told him personally.
Moreover, he also knew that Fang Dao had already advanced to the level of a town general.
However, he was curious as to why Teng Xingwen was going to tell him this.
Suddenly, Fang Fan's expression shifted. Could it be...?
Teng Xingwen was subtly telling himself how it was such a coincidence that the demon army happened to appear when the city lord was away.
There are demon spies within Jianghai City.
However, Teng Xingwen never expected that after Fang Fan merged with the memories of that heart demon, Fang Fan not only knew that there was a spy in Jianghai City, but also knew who the spy was.
However, even though Fang Fan knew who the spy was, he couldn't say it directly. After all, there were only ten powerful generals in Jianghai City, and with him, there were eleven. No one would believe him based on just a few words.
Moreover, even if the city lord were told, he would not suppress a powerful town general because of this.
It's like the mutual slander among feudal lords in ancient times. Without evidence, even the emperor wouldn't dare to take action.
"General Teng Xingwen, why are none of the people on the Jianghai City's Prodigy Ranking nowhere to be seen on that battlefield?"
