Chapter 740: Someone From Longhu Mountain! The Demon-Suppressor Appears

In August in Beijing, early autumn is approaching.

The streets have returned to their former liveliness, and the white flags have faded, revealing a new look.

Xiankelou has launched a new dish, the eight-treasure pheasant banquet, with nine dishes on a table, accompanied by a beautiful woman, and you can taste it at a glance, which has a unique flavor.

The flowers on the Niangjin River bring out the old and bring out the new, the clothes are eighteen loose and the twelve hairpins in the capital attract many wealthy guests to linger.

Tianxianglou’s position as the industry leader seems to be challenged.

After the state funeral, there was a brief period of revenge consumption in the capital.

Even if the world changes, sects are destroyed, and masters fall... all this seems to be insignificant to ordinary people, and it does not affect their three meals a day and rolling on the bed at all.

"I heard that the Demonic Pillar was just buried yesterday, and today the Ma family is holding a ceremony to offer sacrifices and crown the king. A new master has taken over."

"It has been spread for a long time that the first demon family in the world has a young man from the Demon Control Department at the helm."

"It's strange that Ma Zongkui, who had the loudest voice before, is silent."

"I heard that this Ma Yinglong's identity is not simple. He is the closest brother of King Yuan."

Although it was not yet noon, the Xianke Tower was already bustling with activity.

Men in the capital never lack things to talk about. Under the feet of the emperor, new things happen every day.

The most hotly debated topic today is naturally the battle for the heir to the world's first demon-sending family.

"No wonder, there is solid news that King Yuan is the illegitimate son of Emperor Qin left among the people."

"Don't talk nonsense about this kind of thing, it will cause disaster."

"It's absolutely true, otherwise how could he be crowned king with a different surname at such a young age?"

"That makes sense. His Majesty's illegitimate son, no wonder he can push his brother to that position."

Everyone spoke with certainty, as if they had evidence, and some even swore and swore that their ancestors were eighteen generations old.

"King Yuan Zhou Dao!?"

In the corner, sitting by the window, a young man couldn't help but sneer when he heard the name.

His clothes are clean, his lips are red and his teeth are white, and there is a faint heroic spirit between his eyebrows, like the rising sun.

"Senior Brother Wangji, is this Yuan Wang Zhou Dao the one mentioned by Master?" A pretty girl next to him couldn't help but ask.

When he first entered the capital, Yue Qingqing had already heard the name of Yuan Wang Zhou Dao mentioned more than once.

Even at the feet of the Emperor, this man seemed to be quite extraordinary.

"It was this insidious villain who sneaked into our Dragon Tiger Mountain, stole teachers and techniques, and caused the catastrophe of annihilation of the sect." Luo Wangji said solemnly.

Once upon a time, Longhu Mountain was the first gate in the world, and it was so beautiful.

Since the mountain gate was broken down, the remaining disciples have gone into hiding, sometimes having to deal with being hunted down and killed by the imperial court.

Compared to its heyday, it was like a lost dog.

This time, Luo Wangji was sent to the army and had the opportunity to gain experience in the world. He specifically chose the capital city to experience the so-called Yuan King, the so-called imperial court, the so-called Monster Control Division...

"Aqiu..."

At this moment, a delicate sneeze sounded in front of him, and Luo Wangji was sprayed in the face.

"Kid, I've put up with you all this time." Luo Wangji glared at the Taoist boy sitting opposite him, and finally couldn't bear it anymore.

He was accomplished in academics and experienced in the world, but the sect actually let him take this poor scholar with him.

A kid who is just getting started.

Along the way, he was tortured quite a lot.

"Senior brother, calm down!"

Yue Qingqing just took out her handkerchief and helped Luo Wangji wipe it to smooth things over.

"You little bastard, if you mess with me again, I'll break your neck." Luo Wangji suppressed his anger and said.

If it weren't for his master's arrangement, he would have sold this troublesome little Taoist boy long ago.

The little Taoist boy looked indifferent, with no expression on his indifferent face, except for the cute red dot between his eyebrows.

He raised his teacup and drank by himself.

"Are you Taoist priests?"

At this moment, two demon-slaying guards walked over and looked at Luo Wangji and his party up and down.

Since the imperial court used troops to kill the two major sects of Longhu Mountain and Tianshi Dao, the world has been in turmoil, and everyone in each major sect is in danger.

The identity of the Taoist priest has become quite sensitive, not to mention that this is still the capital.

Luo Wangji frowned slightly, looked at his casual clothes, then at Wang Yue Qingqing's dress, and finally his eyes fell on the little Taoist boy.

From the robe, to the hat, to the boots, up and down, inside and out, everything looks like a Taoist priest.

However, the little Taoist boy seemed to have neither heard nor seen, minding his own snack.

"Little bastard." Luo Wangji gritted his teeth, his murderous intent rising.

"So what?"

Luo Wangji suppressed the anger in his heart, looked at the two demon-slaying guards and said in a deep voice.

"What? Now the court has banned the road?"

His voice was not loud, but it was like a needle falling on a flat lake, causing thousands of ripples.

Suddenly, the originally bustling Xianke Tower became much quieter.

Eyes came one after another and landed on Luo Wangji.

The two demon-slaying guards glanced at each other and frowned.

Nowadays, this topic is very sensitive, even the imperial court is deliberately avoiding it.

After all, the two major sects of Longhu Mountain and Tianshi Dao were destroyed. What is this if not a forbidden path?

But if we really admit that there are tens of thousands of sects in the world, how big of a commotion this will cause.

Luo Wangji's words seemed careless, but they were full of hooks, clever and ever-changing, with hidden edge.

"Of course it's okay for ordinary Taoists, but if it's a demon with ulterior motives, that won't work." One of the demon-slaying guards said solemnly.

"Taoist, which sect are you from?" Another demon-slaying guard asked.

Luo Wangji's eyes narrowed slightly and he flicked the index finger of his right hand.

Yue Qingqing's beauty turned pale when she saw this. She knew very well that this was Luo Wangji's habit.

Every time he killed a demon, he couldn't help but flick his index finger.

Fingerprints can communicate with the gods, and forget the machine to see the Tao... It is precisely because of his terrifying talent that he has just comprehended the secret skill handed down from Longhu Mountain [Great Sky Divine Finger], and obtained the qualification to enter the world and practice.

Now, the pressing steps of these two demon-slaying guards seemed to have made the monster from Longhu Mountain lose his patience.

Within ten steps, talking, laughing and killing.

For Luo Wangji, the life and death of these two demon-slaying guards was just a blink of an eye.

"I have been a guest in Xiaodao for a long time, how can I be bullied like this?"

At this moment, a soft voice came from the side.

Luo Wangji's fingers subconsciously slowed down a bit. He looked up and saw a young man walking over.

"Jiang...Lord Jiang Yuan!"

The two demon-slaying guards were surprised and saluted quickly.

Who in the Capital Demon Control Department doesn’t know Jiang Yuan’s name?

This is a monster who came out of the [Genius Training Camp]. He is the younger brother of King Yuan Zhou Dao, and he can be considered a high-ranking official now.

Unlike Zhou Dao, Jiang Yuan, who has always been on the front line, is quite prestigious among the many demon-slaying guards in the Demon Control Division.

"Jiang Yuan!?" Luo Wangji chewed on the name and felt it was extremely strange.

Compared with Yuan Wang Zhou Dao, Jiang Yuan is naturally not that famous.

"You guys go down." Jiang Yuan waved his hand.

The two demon-slaying guards looked at each other and retreated, leaving Xiankeju.

"Don't be offended, little Taoist priest, I'll treat you to this tea."

Jiang Yuan smiled slightly, took out a piece of silver from his arms, and placed it on the table.

Just hearing a soft "pop" sound, the qi in Luo Wangji's body immediately became disharmonious, and the real vomitus spring 19 Zhen that originally gathered at the fingertips

"Master!?"

Luo Wangji's expression suddenly changed and he stood up suddenly.

When he looked up again, his eyes were empty, and there was no trace of Jiang Yuan anywhere.

"Senior brother!" Yue Qingqing looked confused, not knowing what happened.

"Let's go!"

There was a trace of lingering fear in Luo Wangji's eyes, and his clothes were already soaked with sweat.

At this moment, the monster from Longhu Mountain was completely confused and ran straight downstairs without caring about anything.

On the seat, only the Taoist boy was still sitting, seemingly reluctant to part with the remaining tea in his cup.

"Prince Yuan has gained someone..."

The little Taoist boy whispered leisurely, drank all the tea in the cup, stood up and followed him out.

…

"Brother Jiang Yuan, that Taoist priest just had murderous intentions."

On Lin'an Road, Wang Ling followed Jiang Yuan closely.

Just now, he was also in Xiankeju and had a clear view of what happened.

"Tsk, tsk, little Wang Ling, you have made great progress. It seems that you have learned a lot from your master." Jiang Yuan chuckled.

Since Zhou Dao brought Wang Ling back to the capital, in addition to practicing Sunset Sect Taoism, he spent most of his time hanging out with Jiang Yuansi.

Wang Ling was very interested in the work of the Demon Control Department, especially the Demon Slayer Guards. He was very happy to go around in each case, slaying demons and demons.

On the contrary, he felt a headache from the Demon Sealing Master's errand, and it was so boring that he wanted to hit the wall.

"That Taoist priest doesn't look like a serious Taoist priest."

Wang Ling's talent is still higher than that of Lin Xiaoxiao, and he has mastered [Desolate Sun Seal]. He has many masters in the Demon Control Department. Since entering the capital, he has been like a fish in water, integrating the strengths of hundreds of schools, and his strength has indeed improved by leaps and bounds.

"Those people have a lot of background, especially that young man. He has a variety of magical powers, and a single thought can mean the difference between life and death." Jiang Yuan said in a deep voice.

If he hadn't come forward just now, the two demon-slaying guards might have gone to see their ancestors.

"Brother Jiang, why don't you take them down?" Wang Ling knew very well how powerful Jiang Yuan was.

Even his senior sister was no match, and the demon-slaying guards were usually respectful in front of Jiang Yuan.

These days, Wang Ling has followed Jiang Yuan in and out, and has already regarded him as a role model.

From that day on, the master will accept more disciples and become a senior brother himself, and like Jiang Yuan, he will establish a high prestige among the junior brothers and sisters.

"That's the residence of immortals. If you take action rashly, you will hurt innocent people." Jiang Yuan said calmly.

"Besides, since those people have extraordinary backgrounds, they naturally want to fish for big fish in a long-term way. I have been keeping an eye on them secretly."

After years of experience, Jiang Yuan is no longer the dull boy he was back then, and his behavior has gradually become more sophisticated and prudent.

"Brother Jiang is still thoughtful."

"Let's go, it's just ahead."

Jiang Yuan led Wang Ling through an alley. The narrow street had long been blocked by the Demon Control Department's personnel, and no one was allowed to enter or leave at will.

At this moment, in front of Aunt Bai’s tofu shop.

A strong bloody aura came out from inside.

"grown ups!"

A demon-slaying guard saw Jiang Yuan and hurriedly came up to greet him.

"what's the situation?"

"The proprietress of this tofu shop is a widow who makes a living by grinding tofu..." the demon-slaying guard introduced.

"She has a mistress who lives in the shop. Every morning she has to...feed the proprietress to eat fried dough sticks. Who would have thought that today, when the proprietress was eating fried dough sticks, she would bite them off in one bite..."

"The pain made the mistress roll on the floor, and she bled to death soon..."

"When our people arrived, they discovered that the proprietress was possessed by a sexy fox."

"Fox demon!?" Jiang Yuan stopped and looked at the body of the landlady with a ferocious face and exposed tail.

"Where did the fox from Cao Changshan come from?" Jiang Yuan asked in a deep voice.

According to the rules, if a monster appears in the capital, its whereabouts must be found out on that day.

"Running from next door."

"Next door!?" Jiang Yuanqi said.

"The yard next door is owned by a tenant. I heard that since renting this yard, almost no one has been seen coming in or out from the nearby neighbors. Our people only discovered after entering..."

The demon-slaying guard paused and said in a deep voice.

"This is a stronghold of the Demon-Suppressing Division in the capital."

"Demon Suppression Division!?" Jiang Yuan's expression changed slightly.

If it was just an ordinary demon-causing incident, it would be okay to say that even if a lot of people died, it would be nothing.

Once the Demon-Suppressing Division is involved, it will be no small matter.

It was a behemoth hidden in the darkness. Since the founding of the Qin Dynasty, it had been fighting with the Demon Control Division for three thousand years, and the two sides had already had an undying relationship.

"Take me to see it!"

Jiang Yuan walked through the backyard of Tofu Fang and came to the yard next door.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw a familiar figure.

"Brother."

"Master!" Wang Ling cried out.

"coming!?"

Zhou Dao greeted him casually and stood in front of a large vat, which contained scarlet oil and had a faint aroma.

"What is this?" Jiang Yuan stepped forward.

Suddenly, he discovered that there were monster-like skeletons floating in this large tank.

"It should be some kind of grease made from monster corpses, and other treasures may have been added to it." Zhou Dao took a sniff.

This thing is quite powerful, uu read, there are already several demon-slaying guards guarding the road, it's a bit addicting.

"The Demon-Suppressing Division is indeed extraordinary." Zhou Dao said solemnly.

Compared with the Monster Control Division, the Demon Suppression Division is more domineering. They advocate the annihilation of all demons and ghosts in the world and the extinction of all races.

All the monsters that fall into their hands will not even be left in the dust.

However, the Monster Control Division believes that this will break a certain balance, harm the peace of the world, and lead to a catastrophe.

Such differences arose as early as the founding of the country by Taizu.

When Taizu was around, he could still suppress the demon control and demon suppression divisions.

However, after Taizu passed away, the Demon Suppressor left Da Qin and established his own business, hiding in the shadows and mist.

"Those masters from the Demon Suppression Division have been hiding here, capturing monsters and refining this strange oil." Next to him, the demon-slaying guard introduced.

"There are many monster corpses behind that haven't had time to decompose."

"Drag them all back to the Yuanwang Palace, and I will study them carefully."

Zhou Dao gave the order and everyone got busy.

…

Late at night, on the outskirts of Beijing.

In an abandoned Taoist temple, a bonfire was burning, and the blazing firelight reflected on Lu Xianyang's face.

Suddenly, he raised his head and looked outside.

"Your strength has improved a lot." An indifferent voice came from outside the viewing room.

"Lord Calamity, it's been a long time!" Lu Xianyang stood up.
