Outside Yaohai City.
"Why did the dark clouds disperse?"
"The demons are also gone. What's going on?"
Countless people were discussing spiritedly. Previously, the entire coast was covered in dark clouds. Now that the dark clouds had quickly dispersed, the sun had reappeared, and the sky was blue. It was as if everything had returned to normal. It was unbelievable.
"The demons may have moved south. Quick, cultivators, immediately go south to intercept the demons."
"Look, it's the priests of the Orthodoxy. The sixteen priests in green have all moved out."
"Let's go, follow the priests and intercept the demons."
A large group of cultivators flew south. When they arrived at Wuji City, they were stunned by the scene in front of them.
The corpses of demons were everywhere!
"Heavens, who is so fierce that they actually caught all the demons in one fell swoop!"
"Look, the bishop is in Wuji City!"
A group of cultivators hurriedly flew into Wuji City. Just as the priests were about to go forward to pay their respects, they were stopped by Su Chen.
"Don't talk nonsense. There are many wounded in the city. Quickly treat the wounded!"
Su Chen's order was full of majesty, which made the people feel incomparably relieved.
Although the people did not understand the situation, they still hurriedly scattered to various parts of the city to treat the wounded.
"Bishop."
An old priest walked forward and asked in disbelief, "Did you get rid of all these demons by yourself?"
"You don't seem to want to believe it."
Su Chen sneered. After experiencing the previous assassination, Su Chen did not have a good impression of these old guys in the Orthodoxy.
"I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare …"
The old priest said in a trembling voice. Cold sweat even seeped out of his forehead. It was obvious that he was scared out of his wits.
A young priestess stepped forward and said, "Bishop, this is the Great Priestess of our Orthodoxy's Department of Education, an old senior of virtue and prestige. For you to speak to the teaching Great Priestess in such a manner is truly too disrespectful of your elders."
Su Chen looked at this person indifferently and asked, "What is your name?"
The young priest said proudly, "I am the chief priest of the Tianshu Academy, Zhuo Buqun. I am the youngest among the priests in green."
"Very impressive."
Su Chen walked before Zhuo Buqun with a smile. Zhuo Buqun raised his head arrogantly and did not put Su Chen in his eyes.
"Pa!"
Su Chen suddenly made a move and slapped Zhuo Buqun's face with a resounding slap. His speed was so fast that Zhuo Buqun could not defend himself. He was slapped to the ground by this slap and his face was filled with disbelief and astonishment.
"How dare you hit me!"
Su Chen coldly snorted and said, "Not only will I hit you, I will also kick you!"
As soon as he had finished speaking, Su Chen kicked Zhuo Buqun dozens of meters away.
"Bishop, what are you …"
The Heavenly Priests looked at each other, not understanding why Su Chen had suddenly flipped out.
Su Chen swept his cold gaze over the crowd and asked, "Let me ask you, who is in charge of the Shadow Corps?"
Everyone didn't know what was going on. Their gazes fell on the instructor, who was sweating profusely.
So it was this old thing. No wonder he was so guilty.
Su Chen coldly snorted and threw a flying sword left behind by the Shadow Corps assassin to the ground.
The blade made a crisp sound as it hit the ground. The instructor's body also trembled slightly.
"This is … the flying sword of the Shadow Corps' Grand Priest, Jiang Li."
"Why is Jiang Li's flying sword in the bishop's hands?"
"Yes, we haven't seen Jiang Li for the past two days. His strength is ranked in the top three in the Orthodoxy. It's strange that he didn't appear for something as important as resisting the demons."
Su Chen coldly said, "When I was resisting the demons for the people of Beixuan, the owner of this flying sword dared to openly assassinate me. If I hadn't broken through to the Spirit Condensation stage and killed this evil dog, you wouldn't be seeing this scene in Wuji City."
"What!"
"Jiang Li would assassinate the bishop? Grand Priest, what's going on?"
"Grand Priest, Jiang Li is your confidant. You couldn't have ordered this, right?"
"Foolish!
Grand Priest, you're foolish! "
Seeing that the matter had been exposed, the instructor was too ashamed to show his face. He gritted his teeth and suddenly grabbed the flying sword on the ground and fiercely stabbed at Su Chen.
"You overestimate yourself."
Su Chen teleported away and pulled out the Heaven-Slaying Bow. With a piercing sound, the golden light pierced through the instructor's body.
"Where is the Grand Priest of the Law Enforcement Hall?"
Gao Hui hurriedly stood up. "Gao Hui is here. I'll listen to the bishop's orders."
"Capture the instructor and bring him back to the Orthodoxy. Send him to the Judicial Department for trial."
"Yes, Gao Hui!"
Gao Hui nodded respectfully and personally escorted the Great Divine Priest away.
The Grand Priest of the Judicial Department also hurriedly stood up. "The Judicial Department will do its best to thoroughly investigate the Judicial Department and the Shadow Corps."
Everything that happened in Wuji City quickly spread.
The news of the new archbishop fighting against the demons by himself was also spread with embellishments. In an instant, Su Chen's name was established in the entire Bei Xuan Kingdom. All those who were previously dissatisfied with Xia Huai Gu's decision were convinced in an instant.
Through this incident, Su Chen, the archbishop who was only in name, finally gained a firm foothold in the Orthodoxy. He was no longer just a figurehead.
After staying in Wuji City for seven days, Su Chen finally left.
Wuji City had basically settled down now. There was no need for Su Chen to stay.
However, Su Chen did not return to Tiangang City. Instead, he went out to sea and once again arrived at Evil Demon Island.
At this time, the remaining demons on Evil Demon Island had all been killed by the cultivators of Bei Xuan Kingdom. There were still many cultivators stationed on the island who were constantly investigating.
Su Chen once again came to the Death Demon Hall. He broke through the restrictions and arrived at the highest floor.
This was where Mo Yun cultivated in seclusion. Su Chen wanted to search and see if he could find some treasures and absorb the demonic Qi here.
After a round of searching, Su Chen did not find anything good. He immediately sat down and began to absorb the demonic Qi in the Death Demon Hall.
The demonic Qi entered Su Chen's body and continuously lit up the acupoints in his body.
An hour later, the demonic Qi in the Death Demon Hall was swept clean by Su Chen.
At this time, more than eight hundred acupoints in Su Chen's body had been lit up, more than a third of them.
However, what was surprising was that although these acupoints regurgitated a lot of energy into Su Chen's sea of consciousness, Su Chen's strength did not break through at all.
What was going on?
Su Chen looked inside his sea of consciousness and discovered that the rainbow feather had unknowingly returned to his sea of consciousness and was currently absorbing the pure energy regurgitated by his acupoints.
"F * ck, does this feather also know how to cultivate?"
Su Chen was speechless. He took out the rainbow feather to take a look, but he did not find any changes.
He could not sense any energy fluctuations from the feather. Then where did the energy it devoured go?
