Chapter 98: Honored on the Roster
The outer courtyard of the Demon Suppression Division.
The two Yin Shen masters from the Wooden Puppet Sect who spread the evil disaster died at the hands of Qiu Zhen.
The next day, as expected, the entire village did not get infected by the evil spirit.
Qiu Zhen finally started to exorcise evil spirits for the martial artists in the Demon Suppression Division. This meant that he, who had been "unemployed", had finally returned to his main job.
"Sir, thank you for your hard work these past few days."
Wu Chuanfeng ordered someone to serve tea, came to the clinic, and warmly invited him to stay:
"You can take a rest in the Demon Suppression Division. I'll ask the kitchen to prepare the meal."
"No, thank you Captain Wu for your hospitality. I have to go to An Mansion today."
Wu Chuanfeng suddenly realized that Qiu Zhen had encountered a master of Yin Shen last night and he should report it to Master An.
At that moment, Wu Chuanfeng did not try to persuade him to stay, and quickly ordered someone to bring a horse to Qiu Zhen.
"Drive~"
Smoke and dust billowed.
Qiu Zhen drove his horse out of the Demon Suppression Division.
As soon as he walked out of the Demon Suppression Bureau's gate, his calm face, which had a slight smile on it, quickly became gloomy and he frowned slightly.
He did not say a word about the Wooden Puppet Sect spreading the evil disaster and causing trouble.
When it comes to this matter, it is difficult for him to get away from it.
On weekdays, he would occasionally do good deeds, but the premise of doing good deeds was not to get into trouble or put himself in danger.
In fact, his own situation is not good at the moment, and he is in a difficult situation.
"As expected of the Demon Suppression Division, there's such a strong sense of oppression."
Qiu Zhen secretly sighed in his heart.
There are rumors in the streets about how powerful the Demon Suppression Division is and how oppressive it is. Everyone, from wealthy families to ordinary people, changes color when they hear the rumors.
Before this, he went to the Demon Suppression Division to exorcise evil spirits, and everyone was polite to him, so he didn't feel any sense of oppression.
However, today I got to experience it for myself.
"I'm afraid I've already entered the Demon Suppression Division's field of vision."
Qiu Zhen couldn't help but sigh.
Originally, he had the innate demon general Bai Shu under his command to protect him, which was impressive enough to prove that he had a "great destiny".
Therefore, he usually did not reveal "Little Date" to others.
After all, Bai Zhu had followed him since he was a little demon, and everyone else saw it.
Bai Zhu possesses the bloodline of the innate-level demon beast [Wind Thunder Spirit Fox], so it was natural for him to break through and advance. Others were just envious of his good fortune.
As soon as "Xiao Zaozi" appeared, he was an innate demon general, too eye-catching.
However, things went against their wishes. This time, the fight with the Yin Shen master of the Wooden Puppet Sect outside the Qiu Village made too much noise and alarmed the Demon Suppression Division.
At first, he had planned to lie and say that he only encountered one Yin Shen master this time. However, when Wei Tanzhi asked several people questions in detail, he suddenly changed his words and told the truth, saying that there were two Yin Shen masters.
The sudden change of topic was prompted by his intuition.
He didn't know the exact reason, but he had confidence in his intuition.
After awakening the "primordial spirit", this kind of mysterious intuition either does not exist or is extremely critical and fatal.
If you have a whim, it is best to listen to your inner voice.
Of course, now comes the problem.
In order to prove that he could defeat the two Yin Shen masters of the Wooden Puppet Sect, the well-hidden "Little Date" had to be put in the foreground and presented in front of Wei Tanzhi.
Subduing an acquired little demon and subduing an innate demon general are two different things.
Even if he didn't reveal any flaws, he would probably have officially entered the Demon Suppression Division's field of vision.
"I don't know if the banner of a genius with a destiny can cover it up."
Qiu Zhen couldn't help but feel worried.
While thinking, Qiu Zhen drove his horse straight to the An Mansion to pay a visit to Master An.
In the study room in the side courtyard of the An Mansion, the aroma of sandalwood rises.
"Did the monks from the Wood Puppet Sect cause you trouble last night?"
An Jishi was somewhat surprised when he heard Qiu Zhen talk about this:
"They discovered a fairyland and got an amazing chance to become a fairy. They are so busy running around for this that they don't have time to bother you. Not to mention that you didn't kill the injured Yin God master, even if someone from the Wooden Puppet Sect really died in your hands, they wouldn't bother you for a while."
An Jishi's tone was extremely firm.
Anyone with a little common sense would know that things have their priorities right and there is no reason for the Wooden Puppet Sect to be so hard on Qiu Zhen.
"It must be a coincidence."
Qiu Zhen explained:
"Recently, there have been several days in a row of small demonic disasters in the Qingmu Territory, and every night there have been inexplicable disasters. Yesterday I encountered a master from the Wood Puppet Sect, so there were no small demonic disasters today."
"I see. If it's just a coincidence, then you don't have to worry too much."
An Jishi pondered for a moment and had some vague guesses, but he did not mention it and asked:
"Did the Demon Suppression Division interrogate you just now?"
"good."
Qiu Zhen thought for a moment and said:
"Sir, the Wooden Puppet Sect was attacked by two Yin God cultivators. When the Demon Suppression Division interrogated me, I suddenly had an impulse and told the truth. In the end, I told the truth about Xiao Zaozi."
Some time ago, Qiu Zhen sent some magical dates to An Jishi.
As soon as he mentioned that it was grown at home, An Jishi knew that Qiu Zhen had a new demon general-level monster under his command.
At that time, An Jishi also asked him to keep a low profile and not to reveal the small dates.
"Then you might be in some trouble."
An Jishi laughed and explained:
"The Demon Suppression Division has a [Roster of Extraordinary Geniuses]. As long as one is extremely talented, they will pay attention to him. Back then, I was also suspected by the Demon Suppression Division, and it was very annoying."
"You are suspected of having a great destiny. You may or may not be included in the roster, depending on whether the local Demon Suppression Division is busy. Right now, you are an acquired martial artist with two innate demon generals under your command. You will definitely be included in the roster and be investigated and monitored by the Demon Suppression Division."
"A few days ago, I asked you not to reveal the existence of the Wood Fairy General for this reason."
Qiu Zhenben also had concerns in this regard. When he heard Master An's affirmative answer, his heart sank.
Trouble.
He has many secrets and is being targeted by the Demon Suppression Division, which makes it inconvenient for him to practice in the future.
Of course, besides being surprised, he couldn't help but feel a little fortunate.
According to Pharmacist An, he has now entered the field of vision of the Demon Suppression Division, and the secret of the Fu Ze Treasure Land may not be kept for long.
Fortunately, a year ago he dealt with all the things related to spiritual practice in the Qiuzhen Valley.
He also dealt with the corpses and treasures of the Wooden Puppet Sect monks last night, leaving no hidden dangers.
"Hehe, you don't have to worry too much."
An Jishi knew that Qiu Zhen had many secrets and didn't like outsiders to pry into his secrets. He was not surprised at all by Qiu Zhen's solemn expression. He smiled and comforted him:
"Everyone has secrets. As long as you don't practice Taoism, you don't have to worry about the rest of the secrets. With me here, no one dares to mess around. If the Demon Suppression Division dares to take advantage of the opportunity to blackmail you and covet your opportunity, I will help you knock on their door."
Having said this, An Jishi continued with a calm expression:
“Even if he is the leader of Changle Prefecture’s Demon Suppression Commander, the kid from the Wei family in the capital, if he dares to mess around, I will break both of his legs and rush him back to the capital!”
The tone was calm, but the arrogance and confidence in his words were clearly revealed.
The bearing of a master!
"Thank you sir."
Qiu Zhen was startled, and immediately understood why Master An was respected as "Little Grandmaster" by the outside world.
Domineering exposed!
When Qiu Zhen saw that Pharmacist An protected him, he felt very grateful and touched.
just
The problem is that he really wants to cultivate immortality and seek the truth.
If the Demon Suppression Division really finds evidence and discovers that he is a cultivator, then Pharmacist An will not be able to protect him.
However, Qiu Zhen did not lose his composure. He thought for a moment and asked:
"Sir, how did you escape the investigation of the Demon Suppression Bureau back then?"
"It's very simple. Just break through the Xiantian and become a Xiantian martial artist."
An Jishi smiled:
"The cultivation of immortality cultivates the pure energy of heaven and earth, while the martial arts cultivate the turbid energy. The two repel each other. If you become an innate martial artist, you will definitely not be able to cultivate immortality. The Demon Suppression Division has no reason to doubt you. If you are still entangled, then the Demon Suppression Division has crossed the line and lost its sense of proportion."
this.
Qiu Zhen felt helpless.
Speaking of which, we are talking about breaking through the level of "Innate Martial Master".
"Xiao Zhen, you have developed the sword intent with your True Yang Sword Skill, so it won't be too difficult to break through to the Xiantian Martial Master level."
Pharmacist An also became interested at this time and said excitedly:
"In the next few days, you should follow me and practice martial arts well. Break through to the Xiantian martial arts master as soon as possible. Then, the trouble will naturally disappear."
"Thank you sir."
Qiu Zhen nodded slightly. He had no idea about breaking through to become a congenital martial artist, but he was interested in asking Master An for advice.
"Sir, I don't know what the difference is between the clear and turbid qi, and what to do."
“Good question”
For a moment, the two began to discuss with each other in the study.
In the evening, the sun sets.
After having dinner at the An Mansion, Qiu Zhen returned to Qiujia Village as usual.
Once in the "Truth-Seeking Valley", Qiu Zhen patrolled the surroundings with his spiritual sense to monitor whether anyone had sneaked into the place during the day.
After searching for a while, nothing unusual was found.
"It seems that the Demon Suppression Department has not yet launched an investigation."
Qiu Zhen muttered to himself.
However, he didn't feel happy at all.
The "Qiuzhen Valley" is in the wild, no one pays attention to it, and it is not easy to be discovered. But as he settled outside the valley, if the Demon Suppression Division secretly dug deep into the ground to investigate while he was not in Qiujia Village during the day, I am afraid that this blessed land will soon be exposed.
Being in different positions, you look at things from different perspectives.
In the past, Qiu Zhen’s strength was low, and he was afraid that if others knew about the “blessed land”, he would not be able to protect it.
But now, as his strength has improved, his vision, knowledge, and connections have all undergone qualitative changes, and the worries and pressures in this regard have disappeared invisibly.
Nowadays, the biggest problem is still the identity of "immortal cultivator".
"Breaking through the innate martial arts master will break the deadlock"
Qiu Zhen couldn't help but shake his head.
After many twists and turns, the matter finally comes back to the issue of "disguising as a congenital martial artist".
"Today, the teacher talked about the two energies of heaven and earth, which opened my eyes. However, it is still not enough."
Qiu Zhen shook his head.
Whether it was the "Method of Summoning and Refining Generals" passed down to him by Fairy Yunrou, or the "Theory of Clear and Turbid Qi" expounded by Pharmacist An, they both inspired him greatly and he felt that he had found his direction.
However, although he had some vague clues and occasional flashes of inspiration, he didn't know where to start amid the myriad of issues.
It is not an easy task to start from scratch and deduce a method to disguise yourself as a congenital martial artist.
"Forget it, let's verify them one by one first, no matter how difficult it is."
Qiu Zhen shook his head and didn't think much about it.
He has a high level of comprehension and has awakened his primordial spirit, making him comparable to a master in deducing methods.
At that moment, Qiu Zhen didn't think much about it. His mind sank into the spiritual embryo, intending to use the power of his primordial spirit and Dharma body to help him deduce the method.
Just as Qiu Zhen's mind sank into his spiritual realm, he was slightly surprised.
The reason was simple. At some point, the soul and body underwent some changes, and the gem in his hand automatically emitted a faint light.
"This is."
Qiu Zhen was slightly stunned, then quickly guessed something, with a look of surprise on his face:
"My innate spiritual treasure is about to be officially conceived and born."
