Attaining Immortality, Starting From Slaying Demons-Chapter 243 - Not So Impressive _1
Chapter 243: Chapter 243 Not So Impressive _1
“Are you leaving already?”
The Lin father and son had both lost their usual composure.
One, the sect master of a martial arts sect, the other, a powerhouse from the second hall of the Martial Temple, both were prominent figures in the entire Great Qian Dynasty.
But now, the two of them stood with their mouths open, not knowing what to say.
What exactly did the Inspector from the Demon-suppression Bureau come here for?
If it was to investigate Real Person Hu’s true intentions, then using the sect’s grand formation to subdue him before waiting for the Commander in Chief of Li State to arrive would have been virtually foolproof.
If this Fox Demon refused to admit anything, then they could use this opportunity to drive it out of the Great Qian.
It was a justifiable action and wouldn’t offend Qingqiu.
But what was Officer Shen doing now? He was about to leave Great Qian with this Fox Demon, leave his own territory, to go to some godforsaken place?
If this fox had lured a group of Demon Kings ahead of time to ambush and kill the Inspector outside…
Who would the Martial Temple turn to then?
Does Great Qian still have the power to pressure a major force beyond its jurisdiction now…
This scapegoat—would the martial arts sect have to bear it in the end?
“Officer Shen.”
Madam Lin called out gravely; even if there were personal grievances, there was no need to resolve them on someone else’s turf.
Yet Shen Yi merely waved his hand nonchalantly and followed the two Fox Demons, sweeping across the sky on clouds.
“Alas!”
Lin Qingyang, watching the three figures disappear, finally couldn’t help clenching his fists and pounding his palm, “I should have notified the other temple priests on duty.”
People like themselves were too low in status to persuade a temple priest who was also an Inspector.
“Others are too slow on foot; you hurry and ride the clouds to inform the General, and tell him to come quickly!” Lin Jingyi was also scared, originally wanting to send someone to notify the Martial Temple to downplay the situation; how did it become like this?
“Right!” Without further delay, Lin Qingyang rode the clouds instantly towards Li State City.
…
Outside of Great Qian, the mountains were vast and green.
Shen Yi, unlike before, no longer had to remember whether he had traveled three hundred or eight hundred li.
The vast mountains passed swiftly by beneath his feet, crossing countless landscapes in a blink.
“It seems Officer Shen is still sentimental about the past.”
Real Person Hu, flying ahead with his apprentice-nephew, occasionally looked back at the youth and remarked casually, “It’s your former colleague who wouldn’t wait for you, heading straight for the Silver Moon Cold Pond.”
“To my knowledge, the Demon there may not be very well-known, only because it chooses not to travel abroad; its power is formidable and not inferior to many famous figures.”
Far from being only not inferior.
A trace of imperceptible apprehension flitted across Real Person Hu’s eyes.
Beneath the Demon Emperor, he hadn’t seen any Demon stronger than the old dragon; otherwise, he wouldn’t need to make so many preparations.
This Shen really seemed more arrogant than he had imagined.
Probably hiding quite a few trump cards.
But… seeing that the other party didn’t seem to want to deal with him, Real Person Hu didn’t mind, retracting his gaze with a smile.
No matter how many trump cards one has, have they ever heard that two fists can’t beat four hands?
Today’s situation, ten deaths and no life.
While Real Person Hu’s thoughts drifted, a subtle message penetrated his ear.
“That White Dragon has gone mad, and you’re highly likely to have lost your Silver Moon Frost Lotus. Thanks for the help, old friend. Now, I can confirm that a real Primordial Grandmaster has emerged in the Great Qian Dynasty, and it’s time to seek an explanation from the Martial Temple.”
Hearing this, Real Person Hu’s face turned ashen in an instant.
Considering Officer Shen was behind him, he forcibly suppressed his tumult and replied via message, “How could that be? The torment of that cold pond is not for the ordinary to bear. Even a Primordial Grandmaster who used the profound ice malice to form a Dao Infant would have to use full strength to resist it. Even if the old dragon was careless, it wouldn’t be invaded by such a powerful aura without noticing.”
“The issue is she didn’t even release her aura, she just forcibly dived down… However, the cost was great; leaving behind half of her body, she fled far away with her Dao Infant dragging the broken body,” the other person lamented in response.
“Being able to steal the item and escape from the old dragon’s clutches, indeed a fierce one. But she probably won’t dare return to Great Qian for a while.”
He then reminded, “You be careful, the old dragon is looking for you. I’ll take leave first.”
Hearing this, Daoist Hu’s heart beat faster, and he racked his brains, sending a frantic telepathic message, “Wait… Brother, didn’t you say you were offended by the Martial Temple? Don’t you want to take revenge?”
“What do you mean, you want me to collude with demons?” The man sneered coldly.
“It’s not colluding. What I mean is… I’ve brought a Great Qian Patrol Envoy, to offer an apology to the old dragon. After it takes care of Shen Yi, you and I can join forces to slay the old dragon,” Daoist Hu conveyed.
Daoist Hu strived to maintain a calm expression.
There was silence on the other end for a long time.
Finally, he laughed, “I don’t care whether I vent my anger or not; since it’s to solve your problem, the Demon Core will be mine.”
“…”
Damn bastard! Daoist Hu gritted his teeth with force, yet he still had to feign calmness and turned back to smile at the youth, “We’re almost there.”
“Hmm.”
Shen Yi nodded lightly.
He had finally understood the meaning of cultivation.
It was likely for times like this, when he could clearly see the other party was tense all over, looking like they wanted to kill him,
yet he could remain indifferent.
He even felt a faint anticipation for what kind of feast the other party could summon.
Very soon.
Daoist Hu seemed to sense something and quickly descended toward the ground.
“Uncle Master?” The young fox demon took a deep breath, finally finding the right place, was he about to make his move?
The place was serene with picturesque scenery, it was a pity for that lad.
Before he could react,
a sharp dragon’s roar erupted in the distance, filled with endless resentment and fury.
“Despicable fox, you deserve to die!”
With the roar, a silver-white streak appeared in the sky, wildly tumbling down toward the ground!
The momentum was so vast that it seemed to crush the entire mountain forest.
It had antlers on its head, was draped in silver scales, had a sturdy body, golden hook-like claws, and two whiskers floating by its mouth.
It was a White Dragon.
The young fox demon’s eyes nearly split open, panic-stricken as he dodged to the side.
Daoist Hu looked back at Shen Yi and found him standing with his hands to his side, his expression usual, only his eyebrows slightly raised.
He could still remain so composed…
But he wouldn’t accompany him any further.
Thinking this, Daoist Hu suddenly took a step and positioned himself to the left of Shen Yi, then clasped his fists and called out, “Dragon Brother, calm your fury! In a drunken state, I unwittingly revealed the location of your cave to someone from Great Qian, and for that, I deserve to be hacked into pieces!”
“However!”
“I’ve been trying to make amends, bringing you the Demon Suppression Bureau Inspector, a true disciple of the Martial Temple, even daring to stir up the Golden Body Dharma Identity, and offending Mysterious Light Cave without hesitation!”
Daoist Hu said all this in one breath, not daring to stop: “Today, I’m willing to capture him alive for you, Dragon Brother, to compensate for your loss at the hands of the Martial Temple.”
As his words fell, the White Dragon coiled its body, suspending its claws in midair.
Its pair of gleaming dragon eyes swept over the three figures on the ground, the mania slowly fading, its voice tinged with ferocity, “You think I would still believe you?”
“Brother Shen, I’m sorry,” said Daoist Hu shaking his head, turning to Shen Yi, his face showing a hint of regret, “It’s just that you’re young and have offended too many people.”
Having said that, he released his clasped hands, “Dragon Brother, I knew you wouldn’t believe me, which is why I have asked a real person from Mysterious Light Cave to come. The Martial Temple invoked the Golden Body Dharma Identity, and it was indeed to deal with him.”
After his words ended,
a figure in a light robe slowly appeared behind Shen Yi.
“They wouldn’t even let me mention their names, thinking they’re such remarkable people. Seeing your true self today…”
Daoist Changqing, with a faint smile, said softly, “It seems you are nothing special after all.”
