"Devouring Demon Power!" Shen Xiang heard this title and froze, standing in place with a blank expression. Passersby looked at him with strange expressions.
"Don't be surprised. If it wasn't like this, my demon power wouldn't be called demon power! Devouring Demon Power has three laws. The first is that you can't devour anyone whose cultivation level exceeds yours too much. Secondly, don't devour good people; otherwise, you will develop a heart demon due to guilt and end up becoming a devil. Thirdly, don't let others know that you have this demon power; otherwise, you will definitely be targeted by righteous individuals."
Listening to Bai Youyou's cold voice, Shen Xiang became increasingly serious. This demon power was indeed powerful, capable of seizing other people's cultivation, but he also knew that using it frequently would have a significant impact on him.
"After you use it once, you must refine all the power you devour into your own. You must make sure that all the devoured essence becomes as pure as possible; otherwise, you can't perform a second devouring!" Bai Youyou's voice was both cold and solemn.
Shen Xiang took a deep breath, as using this demon power required certain mental preparation.
"I'll teach you now. When you use the demon power, be careful and make sure no one else is around, and don't have someone you're going to devour die," Bai Youyou said as she used her spiritual consciousness to inject some information into Shen Xiang's mind. This was the method for using Devouring Demon Power.
The ability to devour other people's power, although wicked, was quite mysterious and made Shen Xiang deeply immersed in the process of trying to understand its intricacies, hoping to see through its fundamental principles.
"Don't try to understand this demon power. Not even I can do so; the person who created it is a genius, and his every technique is grand yet terrifying," Bai Youyou's voice was filled with admiration.
Shen Xiang felt the same respect for that person as he headed towards where the Black Gale Gang was located. The Black Gale Gang was a criminal gang, appearing clean on the surface but involved in many shady activities behind closed doors. The Black Gale Gang's headquarters being located within the imperial city indicated that they had backing, and Shen Xiang suspected their support might come from the Medicine Family.
After Medicine Tianhua and that Medicine Family elder went missing, most of the criminal gangs were destroyed, but the Black Gale Gang remained intact. This suggested that there must be a reason behind it.
With the Black Gale Gang trying to assassinate him, Shen Xiang definitely couldn't let them off lightly.
From a distance, a large mansion was emitting a loud noise. Only then did Shen Xiang remember that the Black Gale Gang boss had begun preparing for his seventieth birthday banquet a few days earlier, and now the celebration was taking place.
The corners of Shen Xiang's mouth curled upwards, revealing a cold smile. The Black Gale Gang had certainly received considerable benefits from sending people to kill him, believing that they had succeeded.
Although there were rules prohibiting random fights within the imperial city, personal grievances were another matter. Furthermore, it was Shen Xiang who had been targeted by assassination.
The Black Gale Gang's mansion was open, with several guards stationed at the entrance. Seeing that Shen Xiang wasn't dressed extravagantly, they hurriedly asked, "Who are you"
Shen Xiang gave them a slight, bored glance and said with disdain, "Schen Xiang from Medicine Pavilion!"
The dozen or so guards were momentarily stunned. They had heard of the reputation of Shen Xiang, but hadn't seen him before. They didn't expect that he would come here today; it was their boss's birthday celebration, and the Black Gale Gang had close ties with the Medicine Family. Their appearance here was inevitable.
"What do you want Our boss didn't invite you!" said one guard, his tone not as assertive. After all, Shen Xiang was capable of defeating a person with the cultivation level of a Seven-Tiered Profane Martial Realm, and was still a young alchemist. These guards were definitely no match for him.
A guard rushed into the mansion, probably to report the situation. They couldn't handle such matters, but Shen Xiang didn’t make things difficult for them; he simply stood at the entrance and waited patiently.
Before long, the noise inside became quieter. With a powerful spiritual consciousness, Shen Xiang could sense multiple people within the Five to Seven-tier Profane Martial Realm slowly approaching him, which amazed him. He hadn’t expected the boss of the Black Gale Gang to have such a wide network, recognizing so many powerful people.
Shen Xiang stood with his hands behind him and straightened his back, watching the group of wealthy-looking people walk out from inside.
The majority were middle-aged, and although Shen Xiang had been in the imperial city for some time, he didn’t know much about martial families. However, he could guess that these people were either respected family heads or higher-ranking individuals within their families.
These people looked at the young man with pride and watched his calm expression. Their hearts involuntarily praised him, unable to believe that Shen Xiang was only sixteen years old. This was a feat unmatched by the young men and women in their family.
"Young Master Shen, today is my birthday celebration. I don't want anything unpleasant to happen, so if you have any other matters, please discuss them at another time," said the boss of the Black Gale Gang, a sturdy old man wearing a black fur coat that gave him an imposing appearance. However, when he saw Shen Xiang earlier, his eagle-like eyes flashed with surprise.
Shen Xiang caught that moment of shock, smiled to himself, and said loudly, "Boss Black Gale, I have something to tell you. When I returned from outside the city today, someone claiming to be from your Black Gale Gang tried to kill me."
The boss of the Black Gale Gang’s pupils suddenly constricted, asking, "How did you know they're from your Black Gale Gang"
Shen Xiang’s lips curled slightly, smiling and saying, "Although they were over three hundred people, all of them have been killed. I don’t think your Black Gale Gang members are that weak."
Earlier today, the Black Gale Gang had received news that their three hundred people sent outside the city were lost, and now they saw Shen Xiang returning safely. The boss’s heart sank.
When the boss of the Black Gale Gang heard what Shen Xiang said, his muscles trembled slightly. Three hundred people were very important to them, but they couldn’t admit that they sent those three hundred people.
Several people following the boss of the Black Gale Gang were also shocked. Shen Xiang guessed that they must know that the Black Gale Gang sent people to kill him, so those people were probably from the Medicine Family.
"I told you so. Boss Black Gale, you should investigate thoroughly which force is imitating your gang and tarnishing your reputation," Shen Xiang said with a smile, "I’m giving you this news as a gift for your birthday."
The boss of the Black Gale Gang’s eyes flickered with anger and grief. His three hundred people were led by his son, who said that Shen Xiang’s head would be the perfect gift for him. But he didn’t expect all of them to be killed by Shen Xiang!
"Shen Xiang—" Boss Black Gale suddenly roared, stopping Shen Xiang who was about to leave.
Shen Xiang turned his head, with a calm expression asking, "What's wrong, Boss Black Gale"
Boss Black Gale’s voice shook as he squeezed out two words, "Thank you."
"No need for thanks!" Shen Xiang smiled slightly, then left with a large stride. many, either wanting to know Shen Xiang's whereabouts and wait till he went out of town before taking action, or wanting to lure him in for business negotiations.Duan Santang gave Shen Xiang ten retu...
