Imperial Demon Slayer Division

After killing the big demon, Gu Yan put the demon-slaying knife back into its sheath, looked at the white tiger in front of him and said

"You and Zhang Xiu have worked hard during this period. If you feel tired, come back to Yezhou with me. I will let Gong Jue take your place."

Gu Yan's words were not to urge Bai Hu, but from the bottom of his heart. Gu Yan regarded them as brothers and would not do anything like that with them.

When Bai Hu heard Gu Yan's words, there was a flash of joy in his eyes, then he shook his head and said in a deep voice

"Yezhou has been decided for the first time. We need masters like Master Gong Jue to move mountains. Jiangnan County and I and Master Zhang can guard it."

Bai Hu actually really wanted to be by Gu Yan's side. When she was sitting alone in the Demon Slaying Palace, she remembered Gu Yan's every move countless times. She clearly remembered how Gu Yan would heal alone in the palace every time he was injured.

In fact, she was tired of fighting all day long and wanted to settle down like Lin Qingshang.

But the safety of the people does not allow her to do whatever she wants. She is an earth-level demon-slaying official and the backbone of the people in Jiangnan County!

Cutting off the love between children and daughters is the fate of all demon slayers!

When Gu Yan heard what she said, he no longer forced himself, he just nodded lightly and said

"Now that the big demon has been eliminated, I will return to Yezhou first."

The white tiger and the demon slayer behind him all bowed to Gu Yan.

"Congratulations to Mr. Gu!"

When Bai Hu raised his head again, Gu Yan's figure had disappeared by the Dragon King River...

At this time, a powerful aura in the distance approached quickly. Bai Hu squinted his eyes and pressed his right hand on the hilt of the sword.

After realizing that it was Zhang Xiu's aura, he relaxed his vigilance

Zhang Xiu's figure fell heavily in front of Bai Hu and asked anxiously

"Are you injured? Where is the big demon?"

Bai Hu tilted his head slightly, and Zhang Xiu quickly looked at where she was looking. The python's broken body was lying there quietly.

Zhang Xiu looked at Bai Hu with a shocked face and exclaimed

"Master Bai, you and I have been colleagues for many years, but I didn't expect that you could still hide your strength and be able to kill this big monster alone. Zhang Xiu admires you!"

Bai Hu slowly shook his head and said softly

"It's not me, it's Mr. Gu"

Hearing Bai Hu's words, Zhang Xiu's face was slightly happy and he quickly asked

"Master Gu is here? Where is he?"

Bai Hu looked at the direction Gu Yan came from, his eyes a little hollow, and said in a low voice

"Back to Yezhou"

At this time, no matter how nervous Zhang Xiu was, he still noticed Bai Hu's mood swings.

He and Bai Hu have been colleagues for many years. In his impression, Bai Hu has always been cold and cold. No matter whether he is performing tasks or practicing daily, he is just like a piece of ice. Now he has the melancholy of an ordinary woman.

Zhang Xiu was so shocked that he couldn't close his jaw and asked with a shocked look on his face.

"You...could it be..."

Zheng!

The Ice Soul Sword was instantly unsheathed and stopped in front of Zhang Xiu's neck at a ghostly speed.

The temperature in the air plummeted, and the surface of the Longwang River that had melted was frozen again.

Bai Hu glanced at Zhang Xiu with a cold expression and said coldly

"If you dare to speak nonsense, I will cut off your tongue."

Zhang Xiu looked at the Ice Soul Sword in front of him, swallowed hard, forced a smile and nodded.

......

After leaving Jiangnan County, Gu Yan headed south all the way to Yezhou

After returning to the state capital, I found that there was already a long queue at the door of the Demon Slayer Department.

After entering the office, several deacons on the square were registering these young people next to each other.

Some of these people are just like Gu Yan back then, full of hatred, and some are young heroes who have just entered the world. Although they are very different, they all have a common goal, to resist evil!

The most numerous of them were the Zhongsan Prefecture back then and Yebei County today. They were the ones most seriously harmed by evil spirits.

After the announcement of the Demon Slayer Division was posted, most young people came to participate in the selection.

After several deacons saw Gu Yan, they quickly stood up and saluted.

"Join Mr. Gu"

Gu Yan waved his hand casually, indicating that they should continue and ignore him, and then walked towards the Zhennan Tower.

Walking up to the Zhennan Building, Lin Wu, who was dealing with official duties, saw Gu Yan and directly used his body skills to disappear where he was, leaving Gu Yan, who was about to speak, stunned.

After a while, Gu Yan shook his head and laughed. This period of time really drove Lin Wu crazy. He was nailed to the position of commander every day, repeating official duties day after day.

After Gu Yan sat on the front seat, he said to the deacon next to him

"Call Lin Xi over"

The deacon nodded and quickly walked out of Zhennan Building

After a stick of incense, Lin Xi came

"Sir, what's the matter?"

Gu Yan turned to look downstairs and asked

"What day is this?"

"Sir, it's the third day."

When Gu Yan heard Lin Xi's words, he raised his eyebrows slightly and said with some surprise.

"So fast? How many people have registered so far?"

Lin Xi stretched out his hand, clasped his fingers and said, counting all the treasures

"There are 5,000 people in Yebei County, 1,300 people in Yezhong County, 1,200 people in Yenan County, and 500 people in the state capital. And as the notice spreads, the number is still rising."

Gu Yan was already prepared to be sparse, but he didn't expect that in just three days, 8,000 people came to sign up to join the Demon Slaying Division. This was really surprising.

Gu Yan pondered for a moment and then said

"These people must be investigated clearly. Those whose wealth is questionable will not be hired. The final number will be set at...10,000 people."

After Lin Xi heard the number ten thousand, he quickly said

"Sir, our Yezhou already has six thousand demon-slayers. Considering the number of demons that have appeared in our Yezhou recently, thirteen thousand demon-slayers are enough. The extra three thousand are really useless. necessary"

Gu Yan raised his head and looked at Lin Xi and said

"I know the situation in Yezhou, but most of the powerful people from Anzhou Prefecture have been transferred to Huangzhou. Anzhou is short of manpower, otherwise White Tiger will not ask for help from me who is far away in Yezhou, so I plan to use the other three thousand people Assigned to Jiangnan County"

Hearing this, Lin Xi just breathed a sigh of relief. The Yezhou Demon Slayer Division had only been established for a short period of time, and the family's financial resources were small. The Ministry of Industry and Military Affairs had only begun to take shape. Eighteen thousand demon slayers were really unable to support them.

"That's good, that's good"

At this time, Gu Yan suddenly remembered that the broken Youlong Dao was still in his space ring. He was quite comfortable with that knife. It was a pity that it was broken like this, so he said to Lin Xi

"Tell Lin Wu and ask him to send someone to check if there are any more powerful weapon-refining masters in Yezhou, and let me know when he finds them."

Lin Xi hummed softly, and then left the Zhennan Building directly. Now he has taken over all the internal affairs work in the company and is no longer as leisurely as before.

After Lin Xi left, Gu Yan quickly finished the official duties at hand, and then began to practice with his eyes closed.

He currently does not have enough energy to use the Purple Mansion Capital Heavenly God Thunder, so he cannot use it even after practicing it. He will probably be able to use it after he enters the Guiyuan Realm.

So Gu Yan began to practice the Dayan Star Technique brought back from Qiantian Palace.

The difficulty of the Dayan Star Technique is similar to that of the Zifudu Heavenly God Thunder, but because Gu Yan possesses the Nine Heavens Godly Thunder Sutra, it is easier to practice the Zifudu Heavenly God Thunder.

When he was practicing the Dayan Star Technique last time, something went wrong in his qi path, and he was injured by the technique's backlash. After the experience last time, Gu Yan practiced more carefully.
