A ray of light flew past and landed on the ground. Then, the dusty Drunken Swordsman and Dugu Sword Saint jumped out, rolled on the ground a few times, and then lay on the ground motionless.

“Huaa… Huaa… Senior Brother… I’m not saying anything bad about you… you… you… you take action and see how things go…”

The Drunken Swordsman was still wearing his tattered Taoist robes and looked lazy, but his face was now covered in red and white patches.

"How can you and I fight against such a powerful monster? If it weren't for my junior brother's help, and the other party didn't have the intention to kill you, I'm afraid that both of us brothers would not have come out alive..."

"……snort!"

Hearing the Drunken Swordsman's complaint, Dugu Swordsman snorted coldly and didn't feel like talking anymore. He also knew that there was a huge gap between his strength and Fang Zheng's. After all, ordinary monsters couldn't survive more than two moves in Dugu Swordsman's hands, but right now Dugu Swordsman couldn't survive more than two moves in Fang Zheng's hands... This was enough to show the difference in strength between the two sides.

But what could he say?

"Brother, forget it, let's go back to Shushan Sect. The big monster doesn't intend to cause trouble to the world, so why should we meddle in its affairs?"

"no!"

Dugu Jiansheng thought about it for a long time, and finally clapped his hands vigorously.

"We can't let this evil exist in the world. We must find a way to subdue it!"

Having said that, Sword Saint Dugu snorted coldly and stood up.

"I'm going to find reinforcements. I don't believe that in this bright and clear world, evildoers are rampant and no one can stop them!"

"Why……"

Hearing Dugu Jiansheng's answer, Jiu Jianxian sighed helplessly. Dugu Jiansheng obviously had no intention of letting Jiu Jiansheng go, and turned to look at him.

"What about you, Junior Brother?"

"I'm afraid it won't work."

Facing Dugu Jiansheng's question, Jiu Jiansheng smiled bitterly and raised the wine gourd in his hand. His precious wine gourd had been burnt black, with cracks clearly visible on it. Seeing this, Dugu Jiansheng also took a breath of cold air. He knew that his junior brother's wine gourd was not ordinary. Strictly speaking, it was also an innate spiritual treasure. However, it could not withstand the power of the other party's fire...

"That flame is really weird. Although I am not injured, my power has been greatly reduced. I can only go back to retreat. I am afraid I can't continue to accompany you."

Having said that, the Drunken Swordsman hesitated for a moment, but still looked at the Dugu Swordsman in front of him and spoke earnestly.

"Brother, please forgive others when you can. Listen to my advice. It's not a good thing for you to continue being so stubborn..."

“Nonsense!”

However, in response to the Drunken Swordsman's words, Dugu Swordsman just flicked his sleeves.

"For those of us who practice Taoism, it is our duty to exorcise demons and monsters. How can we allow such monsters to roam the world?!"

“…”

This time, Jiu Jianxian did not say anything, but just shook his head. In fact, he and Dugu Jiansheng had argued about this matter many times. In Jiu Jianxian's opinion, we should avoid going too far in everything. Indeed, many demons slaughtered living beings and disturbed the world, and they really deserved to be killed. But there are also some demons who just live their own lives and do not communicate with the world. In Jiu Jianxian's opinion, such demons are not too threatening.

However, the Xianjian Sect turned a blind eye and captured all the demons and monsters and put them into the Demon Locking Tower. Indeed, before this, the Xianjian Sect was very powerful and any demons and monsters would retreat when they saw them. And as the leader of the Xianjian Sect, Dugu Jiansheng could capture whoever he wanted without caring about other people's faces.

But this time... they finally hit a wall.

"Brother, listen to my advice. The demons this time are different from ordinary ones. You must act with caution. If you are not careful, the foundation of the Xianjian Sect may be destroyed..."

Recalling the fear brought by Fang Zheng's flame, even the Drunken Swordsman couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. It was the first time in his life that he had encountered such a flame. The raging flames seemed to turn the entire world into ashes, which was frightening. He was really worried that if this continued, after his retreat was over, the entire Xianjian Sect... No, the entire Shushan would be burned down by the other party!

However, this time, Sword Saint Dugu did not respond to Jiu Jianxian's words at all, but leaped up and turned into a sword light and left. Watching Sword Saint Dugu leave, Jiu Jianxian shook his head helplessly and sighed, then he staggered and turned away.

"Ah... this is fate... let's go drink..."

Over there, Drunken Swordsman and Dugu Sword Saint left separately, and here, Fang Zheng returned to the airship and told the villagers that the zombies outside Heihe Town had been cleared out. The villagers were naturally grateful for this, but Fang Zheng didn't care too much. He just responded with a few words and then led everyone away from this troubled place.

"Brother Fang, are you okay?"

It was not until they left that Lin Yueru came over to ask curiously, and Fang Zheng shook his head.

"What can possibly happen to me? It's probably more likely that the old guy is in trouble. I want to see if he dares to cause trouble to me again!"

"That must be the Sword Saint Dugu from the Shushan Immortal Sword Sect, right? Is there some misunderstanding between Brother Fang and him?"

"Misunderstanding? What misunderstanding could there be between us?"

Fang Zheng sneered at Lin Yueru's words.

"That old guy is not a good guy either. Humph, exorcising demons? That sounds good!"

"But didn't the Immortal Sword Sect also capture many evil demons and heretics?"

"They have arrested many evil people, but that doesn't necessarily mean they are right."

Fang Zheng curled his lips.

"If you ask me, the people of the Immortal Sword Sect are a group of human supremacists... No, they are not worthy of being human supremacists. They are just a group of Cerberus!"

At this point, Fang Zheng couldn't help but think of Cerberus in the Mass Effect world. Their slogan was "Humans first, aliens die." However, Cerberus was a terrorist organization in the Mass Effect world, but the Xianjian Sect became a reputable and upright sect here... It was really funny.

Although most of the famous and upright people are funny in themselves.

"???"

After hearing what Fang Zheng said, Lin Yueru and Zhao Linger were confused and looked at each other, not knowing what Fang Zheng meant. Fang Zheng shook his head and looked at the two of them.

"Let me ask you this: do you think the monsters were killed cleanly?"

"this……"

After hearing Fang Zheng's question, Zhao Linger and Lin Yueru thought for a moment and then shook their heads.

"Right, you can't kill them all. For example, even if I kill all the monsters in this world now, after a few dozen or hundreds of years, there will still be animals, insects, and trees that have become spirits, right? They will still become monsters, right?"

"Indeed."

"So that's it."

Having said this, Fang Zheng clapped his hands.

"Since there are endless monsters to kill, then what the Xianjian Sect is doing is not for the good of mankind, but to force all monsters to be against mankind! Think about it, the Xianjian Sect will kill those monsters that kill people and suck their souls and blood, and will also kill those monsters that live their own lives and don't interact with humans. Since you will be killed by the Xianjian Sect regardless of whether you kill people or not, if you were a monster, what would you choose?"

"this……"

After hearing Fang Zheng's words, Lin Yueru was speechless for a moment.

"But it is rumored that the monster is ferocious and terrifying..."

"Tsk, I have seen the most despicable humans and the most noble orcs."

Hearing this, Fang Zheng snorted. Compared to the humans in the dark world, the monsters in the fairy world were not even cruel!

"The Xianjian Sect has no future if they do this! As the saying goes, there is no discrimination in education. Simply killing will not solve the problem. Of course, this is based on survival. If you want everyone to perish together, then you don't have to worry about this problem."

If Fang Zheng simply burned the entire Xianjian world, the problems between humans and monsters would of course be wiped out.

But it's obviously impossible for Fang Zheng to burn down the entire Fairy Sword World... huh?

Speaking of this, Fang Zheng suddenly felt something in his heart.

For some reason, he had a feeling that what he had just said contained clues about a certain soul stone...
