Chapter 59

~8 min read 1,503 words

Before long, everyone on the field had matched their teams.

Lu Changsheng also formed a small team with four probationary Demon Suppression Envoys, serving as the captain himself.

Among the four subordinates, there were three men and one woman.

Among the three men, there was one in black, with a strong figure and a very young appearance, named Lu Zhangkun.

The only woman looked like a little family girl, named Wei Rong.

The eyes of the group looking at Lu Changsheng all carried a trace of flattery.

As Refining Skin martial artists who had just joined the Demon Suppression Office, they naturally hoped to leave a good impression on their superiors, and also have a bit more vitality during missions.

Soon, everyone in the hall took their mission credentials and walked toward the outside of the hall.

Lu Changsheng also stepped forward to take his mission token and left the hall with the group.

After leaving the Demon Suppression Office, the five rushed all the way and soon passed the city gate, arriving at an open space outside the county town.

At this time, Lu Changsheng stopped suddenly.

He took out the mission token, opened the interlayer, and pulled out a piece of white paper full of symbols.

He saw that it was marked with a large number of fortress patterns, among which the pattern in the lower left corner was circled with a red circle, which was obviously their destination for this trip.

After Lu Changsheng compared it with the map in his mind, he found that this place was a farm located one hundred miles west of the city.

"Let's rush on the road quickly."

He waved his hand and rushed toward the front quickly.

The group behind hurriedly followed.

To prevent the mission from leaking, they didn't ask much about some details, and everything was based on the captain.

The group rushed along the mountain road and didn't arrive at the location marked by the red circle on the map until two days later.

Lu Changsheng hid in the depths of the dense forest, staring quietly at the farm in front.

From the outside, the village was very peaceful, and there were many men cleaning the courtyard and killing livestock, a scene of harmony.

After observing for half an hour, the group still didn't find any abnormalities.

However, the information of the Demon Suppression Office couldn't be wrong; it was only possible that some people were hiding.

Lu Changsheng no longer hesitated and immediately led the group to rush toward the farm in front.

Before long, they arrived outside the farm gate.

At this time, a man in black in the village saw the movement and walked out immediately.

With a smile on his face, he said to Lu Changsheng: "May I ask what the lords are doing at my Qiu Family Village?"

Obviously, he also had very sharp eyes and knew that Lu Changsheng was the leader.

"This official is here to investigate some suspicious matters."

Lu Changsheng's expression was very calm.

After speaking, he walked forward with the group, bypassed the man, and stepped into the village.

Everyone in the village looked at Lu Changsheng and the others with surprise.

This place had always been very remote, and he didn't expect that someone from the County Office would come to investigate today, which was really rare.

The man in black who led the way earlier saw that he couldn't stop them, so he chased after them and led the way with a smile.

"Lords, go to the hall and drink some tea..."

Saying this, he led the group toward the living room.

Lu Changsheng and the others didn't decline and sat down in the living room directly.

Qiu Qingyuan ran with small steps, left the hall, and seemed to be preparing tea.

Before long, this person returned, holding a tray in his hand, on which were several cups of steaming tea.

"Lords, please use tea."

Qiu Qingyuan nodded and bowed, but a trace of inexplicable meaning flashed in his lowered eyes.

Lu Changsheng took the tea but didn't drink it, instead asking calmly: "Are you the person in charge here? Have there been any suspicious personnel in the village recently?"

"This little one is the village master here; this place has always been peaceful, and there are no abnormalities. Did the lord make a mistake?"

Qiu Qingyuan licked his face and accompanied with a smile in a low voice.

Wei Rong and the other Demon Suppression Envoys also looked thoughtful, and the teacups on the table were also unmoved.

They didn't dare to drink the tea outside casually; those who were bold had already turned into ashes.

They didn't see their own boss move, so the group didn't dare to try easily.

"Hmph... you are lying!"

At this time, Lu Changsheng suddenly snorted, and powerful blood essence erupted, suppressing the man.

"This one has never dared to lie to the lord..."

Qiu Qingyuan was full of panic, appearing very innocent, but a trace of gloom appeared in the depths of his eyes, flashing away.

His heart was very cold; the other party was clearly coming with bad intentions, and the leader was extremely cautious, making him unable to find any opportunity.

"It seems I can only take action to kill the other party."

He thought secretly.

"You guys go and search around, try not to go too far." Lu Changsheng said to his subordinates with a smile.

Then, regardless of this village master, he pretended to investigate.

Qiu Qingyuan didn't ask for trouble and retreated out of the house slowly.

Seeing this person leave, Lu Changsheng's expression was very cold.

Just now he was just testing, although the other party tried his best to cover up, he still found a flaw.

A person's confidence could not be pretended, and this person was indeed full of confidence.

He didn't choose to take down the other party immediately, just borrowing the other party's hand to find those mice hiding in the dark.

Soon, Wei Rong and the others returned to the house after searching the surroundings.

"Captain, after our search, we didn't find any abnormalities."

Wei Rong said with a smile, her tone crisp.

"No matter, let's take action at night."

Lu Changsheng waved his hand, his expression calm.

"Does that man have a problem?"

Wei Rong's eyes flickered slightly.

The group was not stupid, so they understood immediately.

The four looked at each other, and directly felt relieved, listening to the captain's command was everything.

Time passed.

Night fell quickly.

The bright moonlight fell on the edge of the surrounding jungle, like demonic shadows intertwined.

The entire village was very quiet, occasionally a few crow calls came, very creepy.

East of the village, on a roof.

Lu Changsheng and the others hid behind the eaves, scanning the surroundings quietly.

After the village master left during the day, seeing that the group didn't mean to leave, he prepared two connected guest rooms for them.

Lu Changsheng and the others didn't rest, but came to the roof in the distance.

As the night deepened, the cold air grew larger.

Until late at night.

Just at this moment, a group of sneaky men in black rushed from a corner in the distance.

The leader was the village master Qiu Qingyuan during the day.

A group of people rushed into the guest room on the left immediately, looking at the empty small house, their faces cold.

"Not good, our plan is exposed."

Qiu Qingyuan shouted loudly immediately.

His brain turned, and he instantly discovered that he was probably exposed during the day.

"You are quite clever, tell me the hiding place of those cultists."

At this time, Lu Changsheng walked outside the guest room with the group, blocking them in the house.

"Kill."

Qiu Qingyuan's murderous intent was cold, he raised his long blade and rushed toward Lu Changsheng fiercely.

A group of men in black around also rushed toward Wei Rong and the others.

Wei Rong and the others were like facing a great enemy, preparing to take action to kill the enemy, just at this moment Lu Changsheng moved.

"Slash."

Lu Changsheng raised the Killing Pig Knife in his hand and slashed forward with one blade.

The speed was so fast that it had formed afterimages, cold glints traveled through the void, and the momentum was very amazing.

"Clatter..."

Qiu Qingyuan's long blade was slashed directly, and the cut was smooth and flat.

Then a cold light slashed across the opponent's neck.

"You..."

Qiu Qingyuan pointed at Lu Changsheng with his right finger, full of fear, but couldn't say a word.

With his Refining Meat early-stage strength, he didn't expect that he couldn't even take a single blade.

One blade, the village master died.

Lu Changsheng waved his long blade quickly, slashing toward the group of people in front.

Cold glints traveled through the void.

"Ah..."

Accompanied by screams, a group of corpses soon appeared on the ground.
