Chapter 56: The situation is so overwhelming that people have no control over it. In the Demon Hunting Division, we get a glimpse of the three levels of 'King Kong Huangting Xiaoyao'!
Outside Wutong Mansion!

The bright sun in the blue sky casts its rays among the dense green forests, creating shadows that whistle in the wind.

He took off the scarlet mansion robe embroidered with white pheasants, and was only wearing a simple white brocade robe. Without the noble air of Bai Qiu between his brows, he followed Jiang Yi and walked among them, as if he was escaping from someone's pursuit.

Walking through the mud and weeds, Bai Qiuyi kept looking back from time to time.

Looking in the direction of Wutong Mansion where he had hurriedly fled, the once powerful Wutong Mansion Master still looked pale, and even now he still felt it was ridiculous:
"I have thought of many ways to make mistakes,"

"but"

"I never expected that it would be because of that kid from the Xie family that something went wrong!"

"Lord of Baopingzhou, what statues did the Demon Hunter General comprehend in the Martial Temple that could cause these two great Buddhas to descend to Wutong Palace?"

"Wutong Prefecture is located in a remote area, and is the prefecture closest to the Northwest Wasteland."

"Plus, there is the Great Wall to the north that suppresses demons, which can intercept the expelled Taoist demons. Usually, the emperor is far away, and there is no powerful person of the fourth step who is willing to condescend to come."

"As a result, two of them came this time!"

Bai Qiuyi looked depressed.

There is more than one Jiang Yi beside him.

There are also two eighth-rank assistant officials serving in the government office, who are Bai Qiuyi's trusted officials.

But when all this fell into the eyes of Jiang Yi, who hurriedly left Wutong Mansion with Bai Qiuyi yesterday,

It seems that everything has changed.

The official skin they wore gradually became confusing.

Because of the arrival of the Lord of Aquarius State and the Demon-Catching General.

It wasn't just the four of them who followed Bai Qiuyi out of Wutong Mansion yesterday.

At the beginning, there were dozens of people.

The worst of them all gave Jiang Yi a feeling of "great innateness".

Even though he has now reached the level of Vajra, Jiang Yi knows clearly that these subordinates who obey his "good master"
He couldn't defeat any of them.

However, it seemed that he was afraid of being chased.

Following Bai Qiuyi's instructions, these people divided into groups of three or five, then split into more than a dozen gangs, and fled in all directions after being dozens of miles away from Wutong Prefecture.

Intuition tells Jiang Yi no, reality tells him no.

he,
Most likely he's on some pirate ship.

Normal people, there is no need to say they are normal people.

What kind of person was Bai Qiuyi before?

The dignified Prefect of Wutong Prefecture was the tutor of Jiang Yi, Song Chai Xin and other successive prefectural examinations. He had deep roots and a complicated network of relationships, and was the parent official of the entire Wutong Prefecture!
With just one word from him, even a century-old noble family like the Xie family, or a famous school or an authentic martial arts school would not dare to act rudely in front of him.

When the fifth-rank official in the government heard that the Aquarius State Lord and the Demon-hunting General were coming overnight, his first reaction was not to greet them. Instead, he took his own savings and confidants, threw the official order at his residence, hung up his seal and left, fearing that he would not run fast enough.
You have something wrong!

Jiang Yi remained silent all the way.

He knew that he had been cheated by Bai Qiuyi's big promise.

But no way,

A sword that inherited the complete tradition of "authentic swordsmanship" was enough to attract his attention.

Plus,
This Mr. Bai has personally helped him to inherit and comprehend the mysteries in the past year, and promised to give him an opportunity to inherit in the future that is no less than 'leading the ancient road and opening the door to the Martial Temple'!

He also promised himself,

He is said to be no worse than Song Chai Xin and is expected to complete the third step within 30 years, return to the capital of Minghuangzhou, and inherit the title of Earl of the Jiang family.

One big piece of cake after another is like abundant wealth.

Furthermore, the person who made the promise did have real skills and was in a high position of power. He was the Lord of a prefecture and could mobilize enough money and resources to support the third-step martial arts training.
All the reasons combined.

Jiang Yi, who was no match for Song Chaixin and even felt inferior to Xu Zuorong at the time, felt like he had caught a ray of light in the darkness while feeling depressed and lost.
He didn't want to go back in disgrace, so he married into the family of Lu Miaomiao, a noble lady, and relied on the cold-eyed charity of the powerful elders in her family to have a chance to bring honor to the family.

He also wanted to try to carve out a legacy for his descendants, just like his former elders.

As a result, he was careless and got himself involved.

As if seeing through Jiang Yi's thoughts, Bai Qiuyi took off his mask and stopped hiding:
"Jiang Yi, I told you before that if you ask for something, you must give something back."

"You were involved with me, and I took you away. It's just like Song Chaixin, who was half-demon and suffered cold stares until today. Even though he won the championship, he still couldn't get rid of the strange looks from others. It's the same principle."

"I am from the Bai family. Several decades ago, let alone your position as an earl, which one of my Bai family's bloodline didn't have enough cultivation to be a third-rank official, a position comparable to a duke or marquis?"

Decades ago, the direct bloodline of the Bai family?

Jiang Yi's heart was shocked.

He came from the capital, and his ancestors were wealthy; he was not some ignorant warrior from a remote place like Wutong Prefecture.

"Master Bai, are you one of those half-demons in the Blood Alliance who swore an oath of blood to overthrow Da Zhao?!"

Jiang Yi originally thought that Bai Qiuyi had only done a lot of "hidden things" in Wutong Mansion and was afraid of being known by his superiors.

But now it seems.
It's more than just not daring to let the higher-ups know!
The Blood Alliance, the various castes that swore an oath of blood to form an alliance, are all half-demons who are in collusion with demons. They even dared to take off the head of a state's demon-hunting general and hang it up openly to provoke Da Zhao. What else would they not dare to do?

Wutong Prefecture is adjacent to the Great Wall to Suppress Demons, and is the most northwestern prefecture in Aquarius State. But the prefect's lord is actually a 'half-demon with evil blood'?
this.
If he were asked to continue to sit in this prestigious position.
Wouldn't all the cities and prefectures under the jurisdiction of the entire Aquarius State be infiltrated? !
"What is evil blood half demon?"

"We are human beings, and we are the best among human beings!"

As if seeing through Jiang Yi's thoughts, Bai Qiuyi smiled:
"I am from the 'Divine Blood Alliance', and I am a descendant of a noble family that once held the rank of duke!"

"Half-demons are the combination of humans and demons. Their bloodlines are unstable and their aptitudes are mostly very poor. However, our ancestors used human bodies as spiritual fetuses and borrowed the noble blood of demons to merge into one, and then continuously purified it, thus creating the 'noble descendants of divine blood' of the former Zhao Dynasty."

"These cannot be confused and turned into one thing."

"Even if it's a fourth-step character, you can't see any clues unless he's wandering around right under your nose. Can an ordinary person detect any problems?"

"If not"

As if he remembered something, Bai Qiuyi's face turned gloomy. He stopped talking and turned to look at Jiang Yi:
"Forget it, why am I telling you this?"

"My disciple, do you know what it means that the situation is stronger than the person?"

Jiang Yi's expression changed slightly.

"Baopingzhou and Shaoyang Mountain are the mountain gates established by my branch of the Xuanlong Bai Clan."

"Now, the ancestor has broken through the corruption and crossed the fourth step. He is the leader of the martial arts world in Aquarius State. Even if the demon-hunting general has doubts, his government officials cannot control the fourth step of the martial arts world!"

"After all, throughout history, there has only been one person in the world who can intervene like this, without reason, and that is the 'Great Demon Lord'."

"If you come with me, I will infuse you with 'Xuanlong Blood', which will transform your spiritual level aptitude and hopefully reach the 'Xuan level' aptitude."

"Xuan level, what a concept!"

"There is almost no bottleneck in cultivating the spiritual body to the Great Innate, because one can comprehend the 'pure spiritual energy of heaven and earth' from birth, and there is the possibility of sprinting to the third step 'Yuan Dan'."

"And Xuan level!" "It means you have the qualifications to reach the fourth step!"

"Your fiancée in Shenjing, your rivals, and those nobles from military families, which one of them doesn't have this kind of blood? Even though your spiritual body is strong, can you still suppress them?"

"In the future practice, unless something unexpected happens, the gap will inevitably grow larger and larger."

"Are you only thinking about your 'glory of your ancestors'? No, you just want to fight for yourself!"

"So-called status is actually not worth mentioning in the face of absolute strength."

"And Jiang Yi, how do you know that the Great Zhao Kingdom will be stable?"

"Even though Ren is the Great Demon Lord, he didn't live to this day, right?"

"When the Aquarius State is divided by us and the sword points to the Minghuang State, what does it matter if I am granted the title of Earl? Even the title of Duke is not impossible to obtain!"

"You are my disciple. If you follow me, your status will be very important. There will be a day in the future when you will return to the capital and bring honor to your family."

"Don't be a fool."

Bai Qiuyi opened his arms and let the strong wind from the mountains and forests blow over him. His white hair fluttered wildly, a complete change from his usual warm and gentle spring appearance.

Jiang Yi's expression changed several times, and his fists clenched and tightened, then unclenched and unclenched.

Seeing this, Bai Qiuyi snorted and laughed, knowing that the time had come. He turned around and spoke to the two trusted officials beside him in secret:

"Song Chaixin, the boy who could alarm two high officials, must have been favored by some great sage in the Martial Temple."

"I will take my disciples and return to Shaoyang Mountain first."

"According to the regulations, the leader of Wutong can be promoted to the seventh-rank garrison commander. Although it is extremely difficult to do without connections, Song Chaixin has the hundred-year-old Xie family behind him, as well as that old thing Xie Qiaoxuan, plus the advice of these two great figures."

"I think being a garrison commander is a foregone conclusion."

"Wutong Mansion has been in business for more than ten years, and I know all the tricks, both overt and covert. I have planted countless black and white pieces. The more remote the place, the more there are."

"You two should find out where he is guarding. Once I have figured out the details of that boy, even if we have to tie him up, we must bring him aboard our ship."

"I don't know why, but I always have a hunch."

"Give Song Chaixin another thirty years."

"he"

“Maybe I can become famous all over the world.”

Bai Qiuyi narrowed his eyes slightly.

A young boy of only sixteen or seventeen years old,

He actually managed to cut off a section of the tail of a third-step dragon, a branch of the Jinghe Dragon Court, in the back mountain of Qinjiang Pavilion.

This might be a great shame and humiliation for Gu Hua, especially since he was the nominal "boss". He was completely humiliated and wanted to get rid of Song Chaixin with his own hands as soon as possible.

But Bai Qiuyi doesn't think so.

In a sense, Song Chaixin is naturally a member of their camp.

And as a 'divine blood' evolved from a half-demon,
Compared to cultivating a promising talent like Jiang Yi, he has countless ways to improve the qualifications of Song Chaixin. After all, the background of being a king or a prince decades ago is no joke.

Although Song Chai Xin ruined his "big plan".

For someone who could possibly reach Bai Qiuyi's level, how could there be anyone he must kill?

The more outstanding he was, the happier Bai Qiuyi was.

Because Da Zhao may not be able to accommodate a fourth-step half-demon.

But if it can be used by the Divine Blood Cult.
Bai Qiuyi even hoped that Song Chaixin could rise straight up and become a real person. Even if he couldn't do that, he could produce another 'Great Demon Lord', and the world of Dazhao would have to turn over again! !

When necessary,
Even if we use some means to tie him onto the boat, he will be just like Jiang Yi.

No matter what!

the other side,
Bai Qiuyi fled in panic, and Pei Nanbei and Ye Cang summoned Song Chaixin to end the meeting.

Wutong Mansion, Demon Hunting Department!
The Demon-hunting General Ye Cang came in person, and even Xiang Zhulu, the Demon-hunting Envoy of the Palace, were all beaming with joy. They called all the patrol officers of the Demon-hunting Division who were present to come and pay their respects.

When Ye Cang, wearing a golden demon-hunting robe with tiger, lion and leopard patterns embroidered on it, appeared in the Demon-hunting Office with Song Chaixin following closely behind him, his aura was as heavy as a mountain.
The decisiveness of killing and the pressure of hunting down countless demons,
As the blood and qi surge, the spiritual energy surges.
This caused the corners of Ye Cang's clothes to flutter and his sleeves to shake.

In the prefecture, they are considered elites, and there are many patrolmen who have mastered the Zhoutian Qi and even entered the Great Innate Stage.
They all lowered their eyes, not daring to look directly, as if they were watching a rising sun, which was daunting!

Even on Yunluan Mountain, the elder Guanjian who walked out of the Guanjian Forest had extremely sharp sword intent and was not considered weak in the third step. He walked a distance away.
At this moment, they all fell silent, secretly took a half step forward, protected Ruan Xiuxiu beside them, and tried to reduce the presence of their own "jianghu man".

At this moment, it seemed as if every pore and acupoint on his body was locked by the man's Qi, as if a gluttonous tiger was draped over the man's back.

As long as he has the slightest unusual movement or behavior.
I'm afraid that in the next second, I will be crushed into powder. It's so scary!
This is the difference between the third and fourth steps.

It's just like a 'mortal warrior with some magical powers' gradually embarking on the 'true man who seeks the mysteries of the immortals'. The gap is obvious, they are almost two different species!

The demon-hunting general Ye Cang looked extremely young, only about twenty years old, with a slender figure.

But only his eyes seemed to contain all the vicissitudes of life and firmness. It can be seen that his inner age is not as young as he looks on the outside.

The "Aquarius State Demon-hunting General" frowned tightly together. Elder Guanjian certainly knew this famous figure.

In the past, I only heard of it in name.
Today, I finally saw it for real.

He really has practiced the "Tiger Roaring Golden Bell Gangqi Mysterious Art" to a very high level, giving people the feeling of being stared at by a vicious tiger, and his body is covered by a golden bell, so you can't tell his depth at all!

terrible!
But at this time, what shocked Elder Guan Jian even more was that
The boy who followed Ye Cang closely
Surprisingly, it was Song Chaixin who had left and returned!
This kid is actually valued by a fourth-step figure?
Thinking of how he had meditated day and night on the mountain, and wanted to comprehend the mystery, but in the end could only look at the door and see that it was difficult for the Sword Master Yunluan, Elder Guanjian had a complicated expression on his face.

When Ye Cang saw Elder Guan Jian, he just raised his eyebrows, then glanced at Ruan Xiu Xiu, as if he had sensed some clues of "clear sword heart", and showed a rare bit of surprise:

"It is said that this generation of Yunluan Mountain has produced a person who is expected to reach the top of Aquarius State."

"Looking at it this way, there's more than one."

"It's really a 'double pearl'."

But it was only for a moment.

In a blink of an eye, Ye Cang calmed down, nodded slightly to his subordinates from the Demon Hunting Division, and patted Xiang Zhulu on the shoulder to encourage him.
He then picked a quiet room and personally took Song Chaixin in.

All that was left were pairs of astonished and envious eyes looking at them from afar.

Song Chai Xin has been in Wutong Prefecture and the Demon Hunting Division for more than a year.

Now, not only is he appreciated by his immediate superior, the Palace Demon Hunting Envoy Xiang Zhulu, but even many Demon Hunting Generals, whom the Demon Hunting Patrols have never met in their entire lives, look upon him with favor!

He was even asked to follow him everywhere.
Is what follows the professor’s true teachings?

It's really annoying to compare people to each other!
At this time,
He walked past the stable and the manger, the woodshed and the kitchen, passed the vestibule of the Demon Hunting Bureau, and pushed open the first wing on the west side.

Ye Cang did not hesitate and went straight to the point:
"Song Chaixin,"

"Today, I will tell you how to comprehend and cultivate the so-called three steps of heaven after reaching the Great Innateness: Vajra, Huangting, and Xiaoyao!"

"Listen carefully!"
