Chapter 0256 – Spirit Medicine Feast – Absolute Return

The words fell out of my mouth and I walked out of the room without looking back.</p>

As soon as I left the room, I couldn’t help but turn around and look towards the room. I only saw that the Poison King was still in the same position he was in just now, staring blankly at the direction I had left.</p>

I probed in, smiled and asked, "You’re not mad, are you?"</p>

"You’re starting to pose as a Heavenly Demon now?" The Poison King said without a trace of anger.</p>

"Who else would I joke with about this but you?" I said with a smile.</p>

"Plenty more! Did you forget that there’s the Lesser Demon, the Sword Demon, and the Drunken Demon?" The Poison King said.</p>

I tightened my smile and my tone became serious, "This seat, today, only wants to play this joke with the Poison King."</p>

After the joke, I once again expressed my gratitude to the Poison King, "Today’s favor is unforgettable to my junior."</p>

After I left, Poison King Poison was alone in his room for a long time in deep thought.</p>

"You called for me?" Outside the door, a respectful voice came.</p>

"Pass the order down, the Heavenly Poison Forest will double the production of poisons with immediate effect!" The Poison King said in a deep voice.</p>

The people outside the door were shocked at the words. But that wasn’t all.</p>

"Also, strengthen the training of all the poisonous people, you don’t have to teach those little ones anymore, seize the time to improve your cultivation."</p>

"If that’s the case, I’m afraid it will cause panic in the martial arts." The person outside the door said worriedly.</p>

Especially the Martial Forest Alliance, they have always been very concerned about the movements of the Heavenly Poison Forest. The fact that I am collecting poisonous elixirs may have already reached the ears of the Martial Arts Alliance and the Evil Dao Alliance. After all, no one dares to take the "poison" path lightly.</p>

The Poison King stood up, and a black mist slowly rose up from within his body, enveloping his entire body. This was the "Heavenly Killing Poison Qi" that he had created, and it would only appear when he went all out.</p>

"Then let them panic and go." Within the black mist, the icy voice of the Poison King was heard.</p>

On the day of the Yellow Springs Sect Master’s inauguration ceremony, several investigators and law enforcement warriors from the Yellow Springs Pavilion arrived at Xu Dalong’s residence early in the morning, ready to escort him to the Yellow Springs Pavilion.</p>

Back then, when I was the Yellow Springs Sect Leader, it was still Xu Dalong who came to greet me with his law enforcement warriors. Today, it is the wind and water that have changed. Today, the one who came to greet Xu Dalong was the most qualified special investigator, Gu Ming.</p>

"Sect Leader, it’s time for us to depart." Gu Ming said respectfully.</p>

Looking at the Yellow Springs Sect Master in front of him, who was much younger than himself, Gu Ming could not help but have some mixed feelings in his heart.</p>

"Investigator Gu, I’ll have to rely on you more in the future." Xu Dalong said politely.</p>

"Subordinate will definitely do his best to assist Sect Leader." Gu Ming said with a straight face.</p>

"Back then, when I first entered the Yellow Springs Pavilion, I learned a lot of things from you, and today, I’m going to exert them, one by one." Xu Dalong said with a smile.</p>

Looking at the sincere smile on Gu Ming’s face, Xu Dalong couldn’t help but feel a lot of emotions in his heart.</p>

"I didn’t used to be like this ……"</p>

Once upon a time, he was quiet and unsociable, always habitually thinking the worst. If it was in the past, when he saw this smile of Gu Ming’s, he might be able to say what he would bellyache about in his heart.</p>

And today, he has learned how to be sincere and empathize with others.</p>

Flanked by Gu Ming and a group of law enforcement warriors, Xu Dalong arrived at the Yellow Spring Pavilion. At this moment, the investigating officers and law enforcement warriors of the Yellow Spring Pavilion had been lined up and waiting for a long time.</p>

"Welcome, Sect Leader!" The crowd chanted in unison.</p>

For Xu Dalong to be able to sit in the position of Yellow Springs Sect Leader was, in the eyes of many people, an unbelievable thing. Although there was no lack of disgruntled people among them, one thing was certain, and that was that Xu Dalong’s ability was recognized by everyone.</p>

And right at this moment, a figure walked out of the crowd, his appearance undoubtedly adding a few points of weight to Xu Dalong’s voice.</p>

"Sect Master Xu, congratulations."</p>

Hearing this familiar voice, Xu Dalong looked back and saw Demon Monarch Zhang Hao walking towards him. How could he not have expected that Zhang Hao would appear here, and he froze in place.</p>

"Demon Lord! What brings you here?" Xu Dalong said in surprise.</p>

"It’s only natural for me to come and congratulate you on this kind of occasion." Zhang Hao said with a smile.</p>

Back then, when I hadn’t returned yet, the two of them used to wine and dine in the Wind and Moon Tavern many times.</p>

And now, one of them had become a Demon Monarch, and the other had become a Yellow Springs Sect Master, their status and position, had long been incomparable.</p>

"Do you know that I have always envied you greatly and wanted to become a martial artist like you, and until now, my thoughts have never changed." Xu Dalong looked at Zhang Hao and said heartily.</p>

In Xu Dalong’s eyes, Zhang Hao was like a lofty mountain peak that stood there forever, making people feel awe. And he, too, would strive to become that kind of person.</p>

"Hahaha, you brat." Zhang Hao smiled brightly at his words.</p>

The personal arrival of the Demon Lord caused everyone present to be overwhelmed.</p>

And just then, another silhouette appeared in front of the crowd.</p>

The person who came was none other than Li An, who had specially come today to celebrate Xu Dalong. Her beautiful face, paired with her extraordinary aura, instantly attracted the attention of everyone present. What surprised the crowd even more was that today, her cultivation had already gone to the next level, vaguely having the aura of a few supreme experts.</p>

"Sect Master Xu, congratulations." Li An said with a smile.</p>

"Many thanks to Miss Li." Xu Dalong hurriedly returned the salute.</p>

"I knew that you would be where you are today." Li An said with a smile.</p>

"I’m not as confident as you are." Xu Dalong whispered.</p>

Hearing Xu Dalong’s words, Zhang Hao and Li An looked at each other and smiled.</p>

Just then, another silhouette appeared in front of the crowd.</p>

Upon seeing the visitor, all the investigating officers and law enforcement warriors present, unanimously bent down and respectfully saluted:</p>

"Greetings, Young Sect Master!"</p>

Xu Dalong, Zhang Hao and Li An also saluted me in a hurry.</p>

I walked up to Xu Dalong and said with a smile, "Congratulations, Sect Leader Xu."</p>

"Thank you, Young Sect Master." Xu Dalong said excitedly.</p>

He looked at me with gratitude and excitement in his eyes, and for a moment he didn’t know what to say.</p>

When I saw this, I just patted him on the shoulder and gave him an encouraging look.</p>

"Alright, everyone is here, if you have anything else to say, just say it to everyone." Gu Ming walked over to Xu Da Long and said with a smile.</p>

Xu Dalong took a deep breath and tried to calm his excitement as he walked in front of the crowd. For this moment, he had practiced for a long time at home yesterday, but standing here at this moment, he still couldn’t help but feel nervous.</p>

"The former Sect Master, was an existence that transcended the limits of humanity, while I, am just an ordinary person." Xu Dalong looked at the crowd and slowly said.</p>

Hearing Xu Dalong’s words, the crowd was first stunned, then they all burst out laughing.</p>

"Back then, when the previous Sect Master took office, he also said that it was yet to be known whether our future days would be a blessing or a curse, but one thing was certain, and that was that our hearts would be beating even more vigorously. And this is indeed the case, my heart, right now, is beating violently, and I believe all of you are just like me." Xu Dalong continued.</p>

Hearing Xu Dalong’s words, everyone nodded in agreement. After all, the Yellow Springs Pavilion that I am in charge of has undergone a drastic change compared to the past. We have cleared the wrongs of countless wronged people and have reaped the gratitude of countless others.</p>

"I can’t do what the Young Sect Leader did to make everyone’s hearts beat faster, but I can guarantee that I will do my best to make the hot blood in everyone’s hearts, never cool down!" Xu Dalong said in a firm tone.</p>

As the words fell, thunderous applause and cheers rang out.</p>

Just as Xu Dalong was about to lead the crowd into the Yellow Springs Pavilion, the last person who came to congratulate him arrived late.</p>

His appearance shocked Xu Dalong, Zhang Hao, Li An, and even me.</p>

The person who came was, surprisingly, the Blood Heavenly Blade Demon! He was carrying the Bloodsky Demon Blade on his back as he walked towards us with a dragon’s stride. That powerful aura caused all the Yellow Springs Pavilion warriors present to feel a palpitation.</p>

"Master!" Xu Dalong shouted excitedly.</p>

The Blood Heavenly Blade Demon didn’t speak as he slowly removed the Sky Destroying Demon Blade from his back, and at the same time, pulled out another large blade from his waist. Although this blade was also a large blade, it was still a bit smaller compared to the Sky-Destroying Demon Blade.</p>

He handed this blade to Xu Dalong and said indifferently, "In the future, you will use this blade."</p>

With just one look, I can conclude that this blade is by no means extraordinary.</p>

"This is the blade I used when I was young." The Blood Sky Blade Demon said.</p>

Xu Dalong froze in place when he heard the words. Master, who had always been unsmiling, would actually give him a gift? And it was the same knife he used when he was young? The value of this knife was simply incalculable!</p>

"Master ……," Xu Dalong was moved to tears.</p>

After the Blood Heavenly Blade Demon handed the blade over to Xu Dalong, he turned around and left without looking back.</p>

"Master!" Xu Dalong bowed deeply at the back of the Blood Heavenly Blade Demon.</p>

The Blood Heavenly Blade Demon didn’t look back and left the place straight away.</p>

All the investigating officers and law enforcement warriors present were dumbfounded at this scene. Although they were surprised by my arrival, it was considered reasonable. After all, my relationship with Xu Dalong was there. However, the fact that the Blood Heavenly Blade Demon would also come to participate in Xu Dalong’s inauguration ceremony was just too much out of their expectations.</p>

From now on, no one would dare to belittle Xu Dalong anymore. Even if they are unconvinced in their hearts, they wouldn’t dare to show it. After all, in addition to me, the Young Sect Master, those who have come to congratulate us today include the Devil Sovereign, the Devil Monarch, and the world’s number one beauty. With such a big battle, who would dare not put Xu Dalong in their eyes?</p>

Xu Dalong once again expressed his gratitude to me, Zhang Hao, and Li An, then he turned around and led a group of Yellow Springs Pavilion’s investigating officers and law enforcement warriors into the Yellow Springs Pavilion.</p>

I looked at Xu Dalong’s distant back, my heart was filled with emotion. He was carrying the great sword gifted to him by the Blood Heavenly Blade Demon, and that upright back was surprisingly similar to the Blood Heavenly Blade Demon.
