Imperial Demon Slayer Division

Chapter 44 Severe Winter

A quarter of an hour later, Gu Yan stood in front of the chopped-off village gate, holding a blood-stained demon-slaying knife.

A river of blood flowed into the village behind him, and a strong smell of blood enveloped the entire mountaintop, blown by the breeze.

The ground of the cottage was littered with broken limbs and remains, a scene of hell on earth.

Gu Yan swung the long knife in his hand, and the blood stained on the knife drew a long mark on the ground, and then sneered.

"Those who make trouble for the people will not regret death!"

After Gu Yan killed all the bandits in the stronghold, he left in a hurry, dressed in black, and brushed off his clothes when he was done, hiding his merit and fame.

A few days later, Gu Yan finally rushed back to Chunfeng County.

In the main hall of the Demon Slayer Department, Lin Shaotai looked at Gu Yan standing below and sighed.

"What a monster! When I was your age, I was just entering the Hua Gang Realm. Now you are a master of the Soul Cultivation Realm. It is true that the new generation is better than the old one."

Lin Shaotai looked at the young man in front of him who had an extremely strong aura and a faint dangerous aura, and felt that he had cultivated like a dog in the past few decades.

In fact, the peak of the Sea Viewing Realm at his age is already extremely outstanding. Otherwise, even if the Demon Slayer Division suffered heavy losses in the battle fifty years ago, an ordinary Sea Viewing Realm would not be allowed to guard one side.

The major clans in Chunfeng County were led by the Lijiang Lu family. This was all due to the war between the Demon Slayer Division and Yaoxie. Both sides suffered heavy losses, and the original leader of the Demon Slayer Division in Chunfeng County and all the demon slayer officers of the second level of heaven and earth were all killed in the battle. .

Later, the headquarters of the Demon Slayer Division transferred Lin Shaotai to Chunfeng County to suppress the place. With his cultivation at the peak of the Sea Viewing Realm,

The sects in Chunfeng County who took the opportunity to cause trouble were killed and injured numerous times, and all the Guanhai realms were beheaded.

Only Lu Chenjiang escaped by chance because he was in seclusion back then.

Lin Shaotai picked up the tea cup on the table, took a sip of tea and asked

"How are things going?"

Gu Yan smiled, took out a gift box from his arms, and handed it to Lin Shaotai.

Nowadays, he and Lin Shaotai are getting more and more familiar with each other. It is no longer like in the beginning when sending something would require the deacon to run errands back and forth.

Seeing Lin Shaotai take the gift box, Gu Yan cupped his fists and said

"My subordinates know that Mr. Lin has a deep research on jade. This jade unicorn is stored in the center of the Lu family's treasury. It is extremely precious. Anyway, the Lu family will not need it in the future, so I brought it back and dedicated it to Mr. Lin."

Lin Shaotai opened the gift box, took out the jade unicorn inside, and played with it in the palm of his hand. The jade unicorn was vivid and exquisite, emerald green and crystal clear. It also contained a special aura. Putting it next to it made him feel clear-headed.

Lin Shaotai is fond of jade and has a lot of fine jade in his home. When he saw such a beautiful jade unicorn, he naturally couldn’t put it down.

"Such a good jade unicorn, the Lu family just gave it to you? You won't need it later? What do you mean?"

Lin Shaotai suddenly realized the hidden meaning in Gu Yan's words.

Gu Yan chuckled lightly

"The Lu family of Lijiang refused to obey discipline. The head of the family, Lu Chenjiang, and his son Lu Beichen were both beheaded as punishment. The women in the family were left behind to show the benevolence of my Demon Slayer Division."

Lin Shaotai looked at Gu Yan like a monster

"Lu Chenjiang is dead? Did you kill him?"

Gu Yan felt the gaze of his immediate superior and said modestly

"My subordinates also took advantage of Lu Chenjiang's unpreparedness to attack him secretly. They also applied poison on the knife to kill him. If it were a head-on confrontation, I'm afraid I would not be his opponent."

Lin Shaotai waved his hand

"There's no need to be modest. Although Lu Chenjiang is old, he is still at the peak of the Sea Viewing Realm. If he were in the early stage of the Soul Cultivation Realm, he would not be Lu Chenjiang's opponent even if he uses up all his secret tricks, let alone kill him."

"My subordinates are where they are today because of Master Lin's training."

Lin Shaotai didn't care about the life or death of a Lijiang Lu family, he looked at Gu Yan with relief and said

"At that time, I asked you to give Lu Chenjiang a birthday gift. I just wanted to make him sick. I would deal with him when I was free. It would be better for you to just give it to him.

In addition, if the people in the imperial capital knew about your cultivation and that you had reached the state of spiritual cultivation in such a short period of time, I am afraid that even Master Fang would have a love for talents.

Practice hard. With your talent, sooner or later you will become a figure like Mr. Fang, be ranked in the sky, become a town official, and protect the peace of the people of the state."

"Okay, you're tired from traveling all the way. Go back and rest first. I'll talk to Chen Peng."

Lin Shaotai waved his hand and told Gu Yan to go back and rest.

In the Demon Slaying Department in the East City of the Imperial Capital, Chen Peng, who was standing next to the sound transmission formation, curled his lips and said impatiently.

"Old Lin, are you okay? I'm busy right now. Gu Yan was only in the physical training realm when he first joined the Demon Slayer Division. I know he has outstanding talent.

But no matter how outstanding you are, it is impossible to advance to the realm of spiritual cultivation in such a short period of time. If you want to brag, you have to find a more reliable excuse."

Lin Shaotai at the other end of the formation had a face as black as the bottom of a pot

"When did I ever brag? Gu Yan not only advanced to the Yangshen Realm, but also single-handedly killed Lu Chenjiang, the head of the Lijiang Lu family at the peak of the Sea Viewing Realm. If you don't believe it, you can send spies to Chunfeng County and we'll find out. "

"Ah? I knew this kid was definitely not a thing in the pool. I didn't expect that he would reach the state of spiritual cultivation so quickly. I really saw the right person. A wise eye recognizes a hero. Haha, I'll go tell Mr. Fang about this. Gu Yan needs to increase his training efforts."

After Chen Peng finished speaking, he cut off the formation and went straight to the headquarters of the Demon Slayer Division to look for Fang Ying.

After Gu Yan returned to Chunfeng County, he restarted his life of cultivation and a continuous cycle of tasks.

It's winter again, this year's Chunfeng County is extremely cold. Gu Yan is sitting cross-legged in the practice room, his aura is richer than a year ago.

Gu Yan, who was practicing, was surrounded by thunder and lightning, his eyes were shining with dark blue light, and the lightning on his fingertips was shining, and he was quickly drawing a formation in the air.

At this time, the true energy in Gu Yan's body was consumed at an extremely fast speed. His face suddenly turned pale, and all the true energy in his body was drained out.

The half-drawn formation diagram flickered for a while and then suddenly dissipated. Gu Yan, who was sitting cross-legged on the futon, was backlashed by the formation. A mouthful of blood spurted out, and his breath became extremely disordered.

"The thunder spells that appear in the Nine Heavens God's Thunder Scripture can always be cast by the current level of cultivation. The Dongxuan Yushu thunder spell that appeared this time is so terrifying. With my level of cultivation, I can't even finish the formation diagram. The true energy is exhausted and there is a backlash."

Gu Yan, who was struck by the backlash, could only stop his practice and start recovering from his injuries.

The next day, Gu Yan, who had recovered, pushed open the stone door of the training room and walked into the courtyard. He was surprised to see the heavy snow falling all over the sky.

"Today's snow is probably the biggest snowfall in Chunfeng County in hundreds of years."

Lin Qingshang sensed that after Gu Yan left seclusion, he came to the courtyard where his training room was located.

He walked to Gu Yan, who was looking up at the snow, and said softly

"Chunfeng County has not seen snow for decades."

"The snow this year has been too heavy. When the snow melts, I don't know how many poor people will freeze to death."

When Gu Yan was in Zecheng, he traveled to many places and saw many sufferings in life. After joining the Demon Slayer Division, he even saw countless hells on earth. Even so, his heart was still not cold, it was still warm, and it was still hot. Worry about the poor people.

Lin Qingshang leaned in Gu Yan's arms and said worriedly

"There is news from Huangzhou that the evil spirits from abroad have begun to attack the border again. The Demon God General Lian Zhongtai of Huangzhou Town and Zhouguan Town was severely injured.

Our Huaizhou Town Prefecture Officer, Anzhou Town Prefecture Officer, etc. have all brought their masters from the Demon Slaying Division to the border to support us. There are more and more demons on the border, and the pressure on the Demon Slaying Division is increasing. Kyushu Sect Everyone sweeps the snow away from their doorsteps, can the human race survive? "

Gu Yan felt the worry of the beautiful woman in his arms, and knew that she was not afraid of dying on the front line of Huangzhou in the future, but that she was worried about the future of the human race. He gently stroked the top of her head and said softly

"Qingshang, this is a crisis for the entire human race. All we have to do is try our best."

Gu Yan's eyes looked towards the sky, with a cold light in his eyes. The coldness was worse than the harsh winter. The hatred in his heart for the evil spirits, even after so long and even after killing so many evil spirits, had never subsided.
