Sour Pickled Peanuts

Chapter 326 Where Did This Ring Come From?

“The temper is quite fierce!”

“Since you refuse to surrender, then die!”

With that, Qin Hanchu leaped fiercely.

Qin Hanchu surged forward like a cannonball, carrying terrifying power towards the flying demon beast.

The flying demon beast immediately took flight, dodging aside.

Although Qin Hanchu could fly, his agility and speed were absolutely no match for this flying demon beast.

Seeing the demon beast evade, Qin Hanchu immediately turned and swung his sword.

The icy sword qi seemed to freeze space as it rushed towards the demon beast.

The demon beast flapped its wings, and a ball of flame shot towards Qin Hanchu’s sword qi.

Qin Hanchu was a War Saint level expert, while this flying demon beast was merely a low-level demon beast comparable to an elemental warrior.

The gap in their power was immediately apparent the moment their forces collided.

Qin Hanchu’s icy sword qi directly sliced through the flying demon beast’s attack.

“You…”

The flying demon beast’s eyes widened in horror; it was too late to dodge.

Qin Hanchu’s sword qi directly cleaved through the flying demon beast’s body.

Boom!

The flying demon beast’s massive body crashed down heavily onto the ground.

The other demon beasts, witnessing this, were immediately terrified and fled.

The elemental demon beast was killed in one strike; staying would be suicidal.

Rumble…

Hundreds of demon beasts fled together, their stampede creating quite a commotion.

The escape of these demon beasts immediately triggered a chain reaction.

News of a human expert arriving in the city spread with the fleeing demon beasts.

Knowing that Qin Hanchu intended to reclaim the city, how could those elemental realm demon beasts stand idly by?

That very afternoon, over ten elemental demon beasts arrived to attack Qin Hanchu.

Among these demon beasts, the strongest were only comparable to elemental War Venerables.

Before Qin Hanchu, their arrival was akin to them coming to their deaths.

Qin Hanchu was happy to kill them, as demon beasts in the elemental realm all possessed elemental core crystals.

Even if he couldn’t use them himself, they could be used to cultivate his subordinates or be sold for money.

With the War Venerable-level demon beasts killed, no more demon beasts appeared.

They clearly understood that only the strongest demon beasts were qualified to contend with Qin Hanchu.

However, those top-tier elemental demon beasts were not in the city; they occupied their own “treasure grounds” for cultivation.

In just a few days, all the demon beasts in the city had fled.

News of this quickly reached other cities.

Upon hearing that the newly promoted War Saint had recaptured Qian Sha City, a large number of warriors rushed over.

These warriors, wishing to establish themselves in Qian Sha City, naturally had to submit to Qin Hanchu.

Without Qin Hanchu’s protection, they would not have been able to hold onto Qian Sha City.

Qin Hanchu was too lazy to manage the city, so he handed it over to Ye Wuya.

Under Ye Wuya’s management, all the arriving warriors began the reconstruction in an orderly fashion.

One month later, Qian Sha City’s power, network, and city defenses were successively restored.

As of now, tens of thousands of people have settled in Qian Sha City.

All these individuals have been allocated their own residences.

In addition to warriors, many merchant guilds also came to discuss cooperation with Qin Hanchu.

With the influx of merchant guilds, employment opportunities also increased.

By this time, Ye Wuya had already become a hands-off manager.

He selected a group of warriors with management capabilities to take over the administration of Qian Sha City.

On this day, Qin Hanchu stood on the rooftop of a tall building, overlooking the city.

A month had passed, why hadn’t Qin Feng appeared yet?

Was he avoiding him?

Or had he not received any news of him?

Roar!

Just then, a furious roar echoed from outside the city.

Even from a hundred miles away, the roar instilled a sense of dread.

“It’s an Elemental Demon Saint!”

“It’s here to reclaim Qian Sha City!”

“I wonder if Saint Qin can defeat it!”

Hearing this roar, all the warriors in the city revealed expressions of terror.

If Qin Hanchu could not defeat this monster comparable to a War Saint, they would be in danger.

Qin Hanchu had long known that such a day would come.

Demons and humans were mortal enemies, and Qin Hanchu snatching a city was an insult to the demons.

These creatures’ thought processes were identical to humans’, so a powerful demon was bound to appear to deal with Qin Hanchu.

The demon’s roar was the trumpet call of war.

Qin Hanchu stepped into the void, flying towards the city’s outskirts.

Seeing Qin Hanchu fly towards the outside of the city, the warriors within the city quickly activated the surveillance, watching every move outside the city through live broadcast.

Some strong individuals even came to the damaged city walls to spectate.

Qin Hanchu hovered in the air, quietly gazing into the distance.

“Are you the one who occupied Qian Sha City?”

Qin Hanchu was waiting for the demon to appear when he suddenly heard a voice.

He looked down and saw a white bear emerge from the bushes.

Qin Hanchu had expected a demon comparable to a War Saint to be colossal, but this white bear was only the size of an ordinary polar bear.

Even its physique was very similar to that of a regular polar bear.

If it hadn’t spoken human language, Qin Hanchu wouldn’t have associated it with a demon.

Qin Hanchu descended to the ground, frowning as he looked at the white bear ahead and asked, “Was that roar you?”

“What? Do you look down on my physique?” the white bear asked coldly.

“It’s not about looking down, just a bit surprised,” Qin Hanchu replied.

The white bear stared coldly at Qin Hanchu and said in a deep voice, “Get out of Qian Sha City, or I’ll leave your life here.”

“Then let’s fight. I also want to know how strong the peak combat power of a demon is!”

Qin Hanchu drew his Han Chan Sword and said.

At that moment, the white bear looked at the ring in Qin Hanchu’s hand in surprise.

“Where did you get this ring?” the white bear asked, astonished.

“You recognize this ring?” Qin Hanchu was equally shocked. Why was this demon so surprised by the Asura Ring?

“I will return for you.”

To Qin Hanchu’s surprise, the white bear turned and left.

Had this white bear met Qin Feng before?

Or did Qin Feng have some connection with this white bear?

Qin Hanchu wanted to stop the white bear, but it was too fast, and Qin Hanchu couldn't catch up.

Half a month later, the white bear was walking across a vast, boundless snowfield.

After several more days, it stopped by an ice lake.

Before it sat a man.

The man sat motionless with his eyes closed, like a sculpture.

Most shocking was a strand of ice silk on the man’s finger.

This ice silk was connected to the ice layer, emitting a faint cold light.

“My lord, a young War Saint has arrived in Qian Sha City.”

“The ring on his hand is exactly the same as yours.”

The white bear prostrated itself on the ice layer and said in a low voice.

Hearing this, the man’s eyelids twitched.

Immediately afterward, he slowly opened his eyes.

“Hanchu, you’ve finally arrived!”

A smile of relief spread across the man’s lips.

“My lord, who is he?”

The white bear asked in confusion.

“Go bring him to me!” The man was none other than Qin Feng, whom Qin Hanchu had been searching for!

“Yes!” The white bear responded respectfully, then turned and left.

After the white bear departed, Qin Feng closed his eyes once more.

In the cold wind, he once again transformed into a sculpture.
