Yangzhou, rumors of Xu Xuan spread throughout the jianghu.
The first time he became famous was when he annihilated the Taibai Sword Sect, the second time when he secured control over a region, and then came the murder of the Demon Sect and Song Qing.
Caught between the commentary from the righteous and evil factions, Daoism was completely portrayed as a heartless demon.
Subsequent killings of the Demon Marshal, the Demon Sect, as well as the Xuanmen Innate of the righteous path only deepened this impression.
Although the martial artists of the rivers and lakes did not have a good impression of them, they still recognized the strength of Xu Xuan.
For a time, various legends about the decisive battle between the northern and southern Demon Sects to establish the true lineage circulated in the jianghu.
Originally, Xu Xuan had hoped to keep a low profile, riding his horse mostly through the wilderness and deserted imperial roads.
