Chapter 67

"How many cases of this have occurred?"

Lu Zhangsheng turned his head and asked the head catcher beside him.

This corpse was quite strange, making it difficult for him to judge for a moment.

"This is already the third one, and the state of death is about the same."

The man's expression was solemn.

He initially suspected it was not man-made, so he went directly to the DemonSubduingOffice office.

With murder cases happening one after another in his jurisdiction, his pressure was also extremely huge.

This kind of bizarre event rarely happened in the city in the past, which also made him very puzzled.

You must know that two huge Heavenly Craft Mirrors were hung in front of the two city gates, which could warn when demons and bizarre things approached, and rarely failed.

He did not expect that there would be incidents one after another in the city now.

Lu Zhangsheng's eyes flickered upon hearing this.

As a person of the DemonSubduingOffice, he also knew the function of the Heavenly Craft Mirror.

It could warn against the vast majority of bizarre demons, which was also the first line of defense for the safety of the county city.

However, since Du Ling returned to the county city, this matter had happened several times in a row, which made him have to suspect the other party.

The death of these men was probably inseparable from Du Ling.

"I will try my best to investigate this matter; after the office has news, please also trouble you to notify me."

Lu Zhangsheng said faintly.

Subsequently, he walked out of the house.

Over the next few days, every four or five days, a man would die bizarrely at night, and it would only be discovered the next day that he was lying in a stinking gutter.

Upon investigation, Lu Zhangsheng found that the state of death was no different from before.

This made him even more puzzled as to what purpose the other party had in killing these men.

At the same time, the DemonSubduingOffice also formally took over the matter, letting Lu Zhangsheng start to investigate with all his strength.

…………

Night, a piece of tranquility.

West of the city, on a deep street, the cold wind was biting.

There were quite a lot of pedestrians on the street, and the coming and going crowds wantonly sized up the scantily clad women on both sides.

This place was what the men in the city called Happy Street.

The consumption at Mandarin Duck Pavilion was too high, and most ordinary people could not afford it.

This place just filled the needs of the bottom-level commoners.

A woman with an extremely charming face, wearing a pink long dress, stood at the corner, wantonly sizing up the passing crowds, as if she were choosing prey.

At this time, a young man in white was walking alone in a dark alley when he suddenly saw a woman standing alone in the corner, which made people unable to help but want to go over and care for her.

He walked over without hesitation.

"Official, come and play."

The woman in pink waved her hand, her eyes full of charm.

The man instantly seemed to have lost his soul, holding the woman's handkerchief, and was led forward.

Arriving inside the house, he couldn't wait to start taking action.

"Hoo hoo..."

Soon, bursts of rumbling sounds came from inside the house.

One hour later.

Whenever the man couldn't hold on, a burst of pink gas would drift into his nose and mouth, instantly making his spirit soar.

The man was like a tireless wild ox, working hard.

Another hour passed.

The man's face became paler and paler, and he was drenched in sweat all over.

"Ah..."

After a long howl, he fell down.

At this time, a black cat walked in, its eyes carrying a ghostly light, extremely bizarre.

"Go and bring the food over."

After the woman in pink picked up the black cat, she spat out a red pill and put it into the black cat's mouth.

Then the black cat jumped with all its might, jumped out of the woman's arms, and soon disappeared into the night.

The black cat traveled along the street and soon arrived in front of a gorgeous mansion.

This place was the residence of the County Lord, Du Wentao.

It found a small hole in the corner and drilled in directly.

Subsequently, after several leaps and bounds, it arrived in front of a room.

"Creak..."

At this time, the door suddenly opened, and the black cat jumped in; he saw "Du Ling" sitting on the edge of the bed, her eyes quite evil.

It quickly jumped into the other party's arms and spat out a pink bead.

Du Ling took the bead and swallowed it directly. "Go, bring back more food."

"Meow meow..."

The black cat meowed a few times and then left quickly.

…………

Two days later.

It was late at night again.

The woman in pink was soliciting customers as usual, when suddenly bursts of footsteps came from behind.

He saw a man dressed in the official uniform of the DemonSubduingOffice walking over with big strides, his face quite handsome.

It was Lu Zhangsheng, who had been investigating this matter for several days.

He discovered that all the victimized men had one thing in common, which was lust, so he investigated along this clue all the way, and finally had a harvest tonight.

"You cultists, actually associating with demons, hiding in the city and wantonly harming people."

Murderous intent erupted in Lu Zhangsheng's eyes, and under the operation of his internal Qi and blood, a momentum pressed forward.

"Yo... I wonder who it was; it turns out to be Lord Lu. Do you want to have fun with me for a while? I guarantee to satisfy you..."

Ye Yuzhen smiled charmingly, a cold light flashing across her eyes.

She had been hiding in the city and naturally knew some of the strong people in the DemonSubduingOffice.

Lu Zhangsheng, a figure who rose from the commoners, was also within her intelligence.

"Demoness, die!"

Lu Zhangsheng did not hesitate, lifted his Killing Pig Knife, and slashed forward quickly.

"Shoo..."

A sharp cold light flickered in the dark night, and the momentum was extremely fierce.

Even in the air, bursts of sonic booms came.

With this slash, he used his full strength directly, without holding back at all.

For this kind of extremely evil demoness, he hated her to the bone.

"Not good."

Ye Yuzhen looked at Lu Zhangsheng with a face full of fear.

She felt that she was firmly locked by a powerful will, and she did not dare to move at all.

"Who exactly are you, and why is your strength so powerful?"

With her strength at the Refining Meat Perfect level, she felt a bit desperate.

The momentum of the other party's strike was clearly not something she could resist.

It had already far exceeded the scope of Refining Meat and reached the Bone-forging level.

She directly stimulated the blood essence in her body and stabbed out with a sword with all her might.

This sword was already the strongest strike of her life; only under the pressure of death could she stab out this sword.

This move also barely reached the Bone-forging level.

"Bang bang bang..."

The long knife slashed and shattered Ye Yuzhen's precious sword, turning it into clusters of fragments that collapsed.

Subsequently, the long knife slashed toward the woman's head without losing momentum.

"Ah... you ruined the Sovereign's plan; she will not let you go..."

Ye Yuzhen let out a desperate roar.

Immediately after, a large head separated from the shoulders and rolled onto the ground, a large amount of fresh blood sprayed out, and it was a mess.

Subsequently, Lu Zhangsheng searched the corpse and then walked toward the distance with the head and the corpse.

The next day, early morning.

Lu Zhangsheng informed the DemonSubduingOffice of this matter, and the corpse was also left in the main hall.

After identity comparison, it was discovered that this woman was a Guardian of the Wenxiang Sect and was still on the wanted list, but the other party had disguised herself.

After killing the other party, Lu Zhangsheng obtained another Small Merit.

Added to the gains from the previous few missions, he had a total of fifteen Small Merits in his hand.

He prepared to accumulate these merits to exchange for some higher-level cultivation techniques.

Just as Lu Zhangsheng was submitting the mission.

Inside a dim room.

"Report to the Sovereign, Guardian Ye was killed, and the plan to cultivate the Spirit Seed has also been temporarily shelved..."

"Who killed my subordinate?"

"It is said to be Lu Zhangsheng of the DemonSubduingOffice."

"Hmph... find an opportunity to send a Bone-forging strongman from the sect..."

The red-robed woman's eyes were filled with evil.

"Your order."

The man in black knelt on the ground, his expression extremely respectful.
