h, it means the giant insect clan still has no god king born, and cannot join the ranks of clans.Chi Fu said, "Although this emperor's attempt to prove the Dao failed this time, he has already entered...Sitting serenely in the inner hall, Shen Changqing gazed at the dim night outside, his expression calm.

Until now.

Only then did he truly feel the difficulties of the Demon Suppression Division.

Although there are many demons, the number of powerful individuals within the Demon Suppression Division is limited.

>

It would take immeasurable time to cultivate an ordinary person into a formidable exorcist capable of standing alone against the demonic forces.

Even if some masters were cultivated, they would still be unable to contend with the sheer number of demons.

More importantly, the Zhenmo Si now lacks time.

So.

The Demonic Suppression Division adopted a method similar to raising poisonous insects.

From all over the world, they gather those with talent and put them into the Demon Suppression Department. They provide resources for martial arts training and other aspects, then after a year is up, they send them all out. As long as they can successfully advance in rank, that's considered a success.

Although this approach would sacrifice many people.

But it is the most efficient and time-saving method.

"Those who can fight demons are, after all, too few!" Shen Changqing sighed inwardly.

You can tell just from looking at Lin'an City.

>

Right now, demons and fiends are causing havoc. As the only one stationed here, I'm inevitably stretched thin.

Even in a small town, demonic evils are rampant.

Then, throughout the vast Qin empire, just how rampant were the demons and monsters One can only imagine.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

"Forget it, the regulations of the Demon Suppression Division are not something a small demon slayer like me can change. Right now, I should focus on stabilizing the situation in Lin'an City first!"

Chen Changqing shook his head silently, driving away the clutter in his mind.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Now, he wasn't even sure how many demons had infiltrated Lin'an City.

But one thing is for sure.

You absolutely must not be led astray by those demons.

Now all the constables have been dispatched. As for the specific outcome, we can only wait and see what fate has in store.

Shen Changqing knew very well that he absolutely could not act rashly now.

To take charge of the yamen is to take charge of the entire city of Lin'an.

At the first sign of any change, it can respond appropriately in a timely manner.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

“There’s been no word from the Tianchawei, and I'm afraid things aren't looking good there…”

In the dark street, several officers held torches and patrolled the street.

Because of the curfew, there were practically no idle people on the streets at this time.

Moreover.

Affected by demons, even the husband couldn't find work. The surrounding streets were so quiet that only footsteps could be heard. Besides that, there was nothing else.

Let me know if you'd like to translate any other text!

"How many demons and monsters are there in the city now, as you say"

Zhou Yang tightened his grip on the torch in his hand, his eyes scanning the surroundings warily. The oppressive darkness within those dilapidated houses made an ominous feeling linger in his heart.

>

Upon hearing this.

A few nearby constables also responded.

"Who knows, first it was Zhao Fang colluding with demons, then the Zhang family was exterminated by demons, and now the earth dragon has turned over. Now even Lin'an City is plagued by demons. You say, how come we are so unlucky!"

An official cried with a sullen face.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Several other officials also felt heavy in their hearts.

Demons wreak havoc.

While other commoners could still avoid it, they had no way out.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!

As Shen Changqing said.

We ourselves eat imperial grain and receive salaries from the people's taxes. At this crucial moment, we absolutely cannot afford to retreat.

Otherwise, if the imperial court investigates and finds fault, it will be a dead end.

Zhou Yang held a torch tightly in one hand and a bottle of chicken blood in the other.

“Shen said that rooster blood could ward off evil spirits, hoping he wouldn’t need to use it!”

"Speaking of rooster blood, does it really work" someone looked at the bottle of chicken blood in their hand, with some doubt in their heart.

"Who knows."

Zhou Yang shook his head.

"We can only pray it works, or else you and I are in trouble!"

After finishing his words, Zhou Yang paused for a moment and turned to look at the person behind him.

Suddenly.

His complexion changed slightly.

>Where did Lao Wang go

And with that, he fell silent.

Several clerks involuntarily turned their heads back, looking at the spot where a person was really missing. They couldn't help but exchange glances with each other.

"Wasn't Old Wang always following behind"

"I don't know, I just saw him a moment ago. Maybe he went somewhere"

Watching everyone's reactions.

Zhou Yang's face gradually darkened.

"Let's go back right away and report to the adults!"

After working for many years, he had sensed that something was wrong.

Lao Wang wasn't a new recruit, so it was impossible for him to just leave the ranks without a sound.

Besides.

At this point, the other party may not even have the guts to leave the team and do something else.

That's all.

There is only one possibility left.

Seeing Zhou Yang's gloomy face, the remaining yamen officers also instantly became difficult to look at.

“At the beginning of the week, are you saying it was Old Wang—”

"That's enough, let's go back right away. All of you be alert and pay attention to your surroundings. If anything is wrong, immediately use the chicken blood in the bottle!"

Zhou Yang stopped them.

Don't doubt it, since Old Wang has disappeared, there must be demons at work.

If the other party is lucky, they might just be able to save their life.

If you're unlucky, there's nothing you can do about it.

The demons are far beyond their capabilities to handle. The most appropriate course of action upon discovering a demon is to return and report it to the lord, who will then dispatch them to slay the demon.

At once.

Several people didn't dare to linger, hastily walking towards the yamen.

Not long after.

Zhou Yang suddenly felt a sudden quiet all around him.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

When I turned back, the people who had been following me were also gone without a trace.

In an instant.

His back was soaked with cold sweat.

Zhou Yang's current situation is either that everyone else has been trapped by demons, or that he himself has been trapped by demons.

It is quite clear.

>

The latter has the highest probability.

Looking at the street before him, he had probably patrolled it countless times in the past. It should have been familiar by now.

But at this moment, the familiar streets gave me a sense of unfamiliarity I had never felt before.

>

Darkness enveloped the street ahead, stretching endlessly into the unknown.

What to do!

Zhou Yang swallowed hard, his throat dry. Looking at the scene ahead, his legs felt like lead, unable to move an inch.

According to the adults, demons' greatest trick is to bewilder with illusions. That means I might be trapped in some kind of illusion right now—

Thinking about the fantasy world.

Zhou Yang's heart was not much calmer, but rather even more tense.

Although he knows his current environment is an illusion, he can't relax at all.

Let alone.

Where there are illusions, there must be demons.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

Whew!

A sudden cold wind blew from behind him, as if someone was breathing on his neck. The bone-chilling sensation made Zhou Yang's skin crawl.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

A stiff body stood motionless in place.

The other hand, trembling, opened the bottle filled with chicken blood.

I just happened to see a rotten face with no eyeballs.

Bang—

The chicken blood, still in the bottle, was hurled directly at the thing before him. The crimson liquid splattered onto the rotting face, like boiling water, instantly causing it to let out a heart-wrenching scream.

Meanwhile.

Zhou Yang spread his legs and ran frantically towards the yamen.

At this moment, only that rotting face was echoing in his mind.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The fear within me has been fully unleashed.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Even Zhou Yang himself hadn't noticed that his actions today were much faster than usual.

“Master, something terrible has happened!”

Zhou Yang scrambled into the yamen, shouting loudly.

Shen Changqing, who was sitting in the inner hall, came at the first moment he heard the news.

"Calm down!"

With a loud shout, Zhou Yang dispelled much of the fear in his heart.

Shen Changqing's face was cold: "What happened, tell me everything."

Seeing that familiar face.

Zhou Yang immediately calmed down and swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva: "Sir, we were attacked by demons. I don't know what happened to the others, but I managed to escape thanks to a bottle of chicken blood."

Demon attack!

"Where is it, lead this officer there!"

"This humble servant obeys!" Zhou Yang didn't dare refuse and led the way.

Not long.

Then, the two of them arrived at the street where they had been before.

“Sir, we were patrolling on this street, but after a while, Lao Wang and the others just disappeared...”

Looking at the familiar street in front of him, Zhou Yang thought about his recent encounter.

If it weren't for Shen Changqing being by his side, he definitely wouldn't have dared to come back.

Upon hearing this.

Shen Changqing did not answer, he just stood there motionless.

Tianwu Zhenqi rose from the dantian, perception already at its maximum.

A moment later.

He took a step forward, one palm wrapped in the true qi of Heaven Martial Arts, and directly bombarded the air.

The immensely powerful Heaven-Martial True Qi surged like a raging inferno, causing the surrounding temperature to rise sharply.

Next.

In Zhou Yang's astonished gaze, everything before him gradually dissipated like ashes.

> Until the streets fade away.

Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!

Another street appeared before his eyes.

What is different, however, is that the several clerks who had disappeared earlier are now lying on the ground, all twisted and broken.

Before Zhou Yang could react, Shen Changqing suddenly drew his sword and slashed toward an empty space.

A void of nothingness, yet it emanated a piercing scream. A broken body was cleaved in two by a long blade, finally vanishing like smoke.

The long sword returns to its sheath.

Shen Changqing sneered: "A mere You-rank apparition, daring to set up an illusionary barrier within my jurisdiction, truly courting death!"

After harvesting a wave of killing points, although the amount wasn't much, it satisfied him somewhat.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

It is obvious.

This demon has been here for a long time, and it has set up an illusionary barrier here. Anyone who enters the street will unknowingly fall into the illusion.

After doing all of this.

Shen Changqing arrived before those few yamen officers.

Every person's face was somewhat pale, but their chests still rose and fell, proving they were still alive.

Very concise and to the point.

He slapped each one awake, rousing the slumbering officials.

Only a few people slowly woke up, and when they saw Shen Changqing's face, they immediately came to their senses.

"Master!"

The demons here have already been slain by this officer. You should return with me first and then I'll tell you everything!
