Chapter 113: Chapter 113 Citywide Turmoil

"Yuanba, get up quickly; your presence alone is imposing like that of a divine general!"

Qin Jun hurriedly helped Li Yuanba to his feet, lavishing praise without reservation. In his heart, Li Yuanba was not really a divine general but rather a fierce one, a killing machine on the battlefield!

Li Yuanba scratched his head and smiled bashfully at the praise, causing the others to feel the scene was almost unreal.

Was this really the same fearsome god who would slay demons when encountering them?

"Why do you call Brother Qin Jun ’Benefactor’?" Li asked, curious.

The rest were also wondering if Qin Jun had once saved Li Yuanba. How many powerful figures did this guy save when he was younger?

And there were always strong people who would pledge loyalty inspired by a moment of realization.

"When I was small, I had no home, and it was the Benefactor who gave me food. Otherwise, I would have starved to death," said Li Yuanba seriously, almost making everyone else keel over.

It really freakin’ was the case!

Qin Jun fought back the urge to burst into laughter and waved his hand, "Let’s not speak of the past. Now, with Yuanba’s help, where in the world can’t I go?"

At that moment, he desperately wanted to kiss the system; this memory implant was too awesome!

Impenetrable!

Who could clearly remember their childhood?

Li Yuanba, encouraged by the compliment, boomed confidently, "From now on, whoever the Benefactor wants me to smash, I will smash!"

He even shook the Golden Peng God Hammer in his hand for emphasis, making everyone’s hearts skip a beat.

"Still calling me Benefactor? Call me Your Highness," Qin Jun said jokingly, casually bringing himself closer to Li Yuanba.

After a short moment of shock, Jia Xun became excited. With such a fierce warrior as Qin Jun’s ally, it was like Qianyue Kingdom had gained a fortune. Just thinking about Li Yuanba and Guan Yu fighting for Qianyue Kingdom in the Southern Domain energized him beyond control.

Ye Xuan and the other four hadn’t snapped out of it yet. Along the way, Qin Jun had given them more and more shocks, each more terrifying than the last.

"Just who is he to always be able to gather strong people around him?"

Zhu Yanqing’s gaze was a bit lost. Although she hadn’t had a deep conversation with Qin Jun, his handsome presence, surrounded by many powerful people, and his own formidable strength left an impression.

Among the younger generation, she had yet to see someone more outstanding than Qin Jun, and naturally, her heart fluttered a little.

However, that rascal Qin Jun was shameless; with so many beauties around him, Zhu Yanqing was not about to shamelessly throw herself at him.

Ye Xuan, standing nearby, caught Zhu Yanqing’s look towards Qin Jun and instantly felt disgusted, but with Li Yuanba present, he dared not show his emotions.

Meanwhile, the beast tide outside the city began to retreat. With the death of the Demon King of Tiger, the bewildered beasts naturally didn’t dare linger. Looking over the field, there were not ten thousand dead beasts, there were eight thousand, their bodies strewn everywhere and blood flowing like rivers, clearly showcasing the extent of Li Yuanba’s fury.

"Thank you, senior, for your assistance!"

A general ran over, kneeled on one knee, and saluted. As his voice fell, the hundreds of soldiers on the city wall knelt in unison and shouted their thanks.

To this, Li Yuanba appeared indifferent and muttered to himself, "If they hadn’t blocked my way, I wouldn’t have cared about you all."

His words left the soldiers feeling awkward, while Qin Jun shook his head with a smile, "Alright, let’s enter the city and hit the road early."

With the addition of Li Yuanba, Qin Jun was in high spirits, and the pressure from Black Night Pavilion lessened.

The group descended the city wall stairs, and Evening Star suddenly said, "That demon king surely had a strong figure behind him. We may encounter trouble when we reach the Nanzhuo Dynasty."

"Humph! Don’t worry, with me here, one hammer will send him to the Netherworld," Li Yuanba snorted, his tone one of complete disregard for everyone else. Evening Star was not annoyed but rather smiled and stroked his beard.

Evening Star had sharp eyes and had already seen that Li Yuanba was immature, but he was exceptionally obedient to Qin Jun. Such a man was perfectly suited to be an enforcer.

Furthermore, he was a powerful figure in the Immortal Realm, while Daji, Roaring Sky Dog, Li, and Fa Hai were all of the Transforming Void Realm. Coupled with Li Yuanba from the Earth Immortal Realm, they indeed had the strength to wrestle with Black Night Pavilion.

"Now it looks like we have two enemies to contend with; interesting."

Qin Jun shrugged and laughed. The mysterious owner of the Demon King of Tiger and Black Night Pavilion would have kept anyone else awake at night, but he was not worried at all. In a world where martial artists were as common as clouds, who could avoid trouble?

In the world of God and Demon, where the law of the jungle prevails, only by becoming stronger can one survive!

"It’s not just two, Li’s father might also bear a grudge against you. Li was in the midst of breaking through to the Earth Immortal Realm, but she ran out to find you. Do you think the Southern Sea Dragon King won’t be angry?" Evening Star commented teasingly, his face full of mischief.

Li Yuanba looked at Li in surprise, not expecting her to have a peak Transforming Void Realm status.

Approaching the carriage, the group continued on their way, while the soldiers started to spread the word, letting the tale of Li Yuanba’s slaughter of the beast tide and instant killing of the demon king travel far and wide throughout the city as if the news had legs.

The first reaction of everyone who heard it was disbelief, but after the soldiers’ assurance, more and more people began to believe, and the whole city was abuzz with talk of Li Yuanba’s valor.

"That strong man wielded a huge hammer, charging in and out of the beast tide!"

"Exactly! With just a shout, the demon king begged for mercy!"

"It sounds like you were there first hand."

"Well, I was definitely there on the scene. With one swing of his hammer, he wiped out a million beasts!"

"Nonsense..."

Li Yuanba truly became a sensation in the city, and the news of him pledging allegiance to Little Overlord Qin Jun also spread like wildfire, causing a stir.

In the days to follow, the news also spread throughout the Canglan Kingdom. Of course, people from other cities didn’t believe it, thinking it was someone trying to hype Qin Jun, leading to a lot of speculation and differentiation between truth and fiction.

...

After buying food and other necessities for the journey, Qin Jun and the others headed towards the city gate, planning not to stay the night but to hurry on their way.

Li Yuanba followed beside Qin Jun’s carriage, each hand holding a roasted chicken and eating with relish, making it hard to associate him with the fierce god who had slaughtered the beast tide. At that moment, he seemed to be an innocently indulgent little foodie.

As they were nearing the gate, the procession stopped because there were many officials and members of noble families waiting.

"I am the city lord, Wang Kun, and I wish to thank His Highness Yue and the Twin Hammer Divine General for your assistance. Without you, our city might have been trampled by the beast tide."

A fat middle-aged man stepped forward with a clasped fist and a jovial smile, the fat on his face bunching together like a chrysanthemum.

"You’re too courteous, City Lord!"

The captain of the guard returned the salute, and neither Qin Jun nor Jia Xun stepped out of the carriage to greet a minor city lord like him.

"Bring forth the gifts!" Wang Kun commanded, then took out a letter from his bosom, speaking to the captain of the guard with gravity, "The identity of that demon king was actually known to us. Knowing that the Twin Hammer Divine General has slain it, we expect it will anger the powerful figure behind it. This letter contains information on the identity of that powerful figure."
