Who told you to slay demons like this?

When Qin Xi arrived at the City Lord's Mansion, he saw Lu Lingxian and Mo Zhanji drinking and chatting happily.

The sunlight shines through the exquisitely carved book frames and falls on their faces.

After seeing Qin Xi, their tipsy eyes lit up, "Miss Qin, why are you here?"

Qin Xi closed the door and took out the fox demon's corpse from the storage ring without any delay.

Lu Lingxian's expression changed slightly, "Is this a fox demon that has entered the Dan realm?"

"That's right. Just now, this fox demon was sneaking around the gate of my courtyard. I sensed something was wrong and chased after it..."

Qin Xi told the story of the fox demon. After hearing about the Heavenly Demon Alliance, their faces changed drastically.

From the fox demon's storage bag, he found a list of new recruits for Rong Nancheng. The list was extremely detailed, and the ranks and family backgrounds of the new recruits were all clearly investigated.

Lu Lingxian looked bewildered, "Heavenly Demon Alliance, I have never heard of this name..."

Qin Xi sighed, "I don't know if what the fox demon said is true or not."

"The fox demon claimed that the Heavenly Demon Alliance was an organization established by several demon kings to deal with the Lu family."

"The Heavenly Demon Alliance's infiltration of the Demon Slayer Division is not simple. They were able to obtain the list of new recruits this time, with every detail."

"Faced with newcomers in the Qi Realm, the Heavenly Demon Alliance sent out strong men in the Dan Realm to recruit them. If they use force to threaten them, I'm afraid it will be difficult for them to refuse."

As soon as Qin Xi finished speaking, everyone fell into deep thought and the study room was dead silent.

Lu Lingxian was of extraordinary status and held a high position, but he spent most of his time at home practicing martial arts or going to the battlefield to fight with his sister.

He naturally knew nothing about the Heavenly Demon Alliance.

Mo Zhan Ji had offended many demons in the Demon Slaying Division before, so naturally he would not be recruited by the people of the Heavenly Demon Alliance.

Or maybe, the Heavenly Demon Alliance is an organization that was only recently established.

But no matter what, we can tell from the details that there must be many members in the Demon Slaying Bureau who have joined the Heavenly Demon Alliance.

Lu Lingxian pondered for a moment and spoke slowly, "This matter is of great importance and must be reported to my sister."

"By the way, Miss Qin, Brother Mo, I hope you two can keep your mouth shut and not disclose this matter."

"The Heavenly Demon Alliance sent the fox demon to recruit us. If the fox demon doesn't return for a long time, they will definitely take other actions."

Seeing that Lu Lingxian already had a plan, Qin Xi naturally would not deny it. It was just a pity that this fox demon who had entered the Dan realm would definitely gain a lot of merit if he was taken to the Merit Pavilion.

In order not to attract the other party's attention, the fox demon could only continue to lie in the storage ring.

Qin Xi bid farewell to Lu Lingxian and returned to the courtyard with Mo Zhanji. Mo Zhanji's courtyard was just opposite Qin Xi.

"Xiao Xi, you were not here just now. The Jian family and the Chen family both sent visiting cards. I will accept them for you first."

Qin Xi looked up in confusion, "Bai card?"

"Of course, in this peaceful and prosperous world, it is only because Brother Lu is here that the demons are afraid of General Lu's reputation and naturally dare not cause trouble."

"Rongnan City is far from the capital, but Rongnan City has been a prosperous place since ancient times, with a large population."

"Brother Lu can't stay in Rongnan City forever. Once Brother Lu leaves, the city lord alone will naturally be unable to deter the demons who are eyeing him covetously."

"These major families were able to stand firm when the Eight-Eyed Demon King committed evil. In addition to their own strong strength, they also recruited many masters to protect themselves."

"Among them, there are many experts from the Demon Slayer Division. You are quite powerful and talented, and your family is poor, so you are naturally very popular in their eyes."

Listening to Mo Zhanji's analysis, Qin Xi raised his eyes, "In your opinion, should I join?"

"There are pros and cons to both. These two families have solid foundations and can provide a lot of cultivation resources."

"But if you join the family, you won't be able to act according to your own will, and you will inevitably be forced to do things against your will."

"But whether or not to join depends on your personal wishes."

Qin Xi was naturally very clear about this. He could not just accept other people's offerings and do nothing for them.

In front of these families, as an outsider, no matter how much I do, it is difficult to gain their trust.

There is no need to add more trouble to yourself just for a few resources for practice.

The reason why it is difficult for warriors to practice and why they need rare treasures is mainly because it is difficult to make a breakthrough.

For a mortal to step into the Qi realm is a breakthrough. People without talent can only accumulate experience over time.

And treasures like the Tianshi Ancient Fruit are equivalent to cheating opportunities, helping warriors shorten the time spent in the cultivation world and enter the Qi realm as quickly as possible.

After all, the life span of mortals is short, only a hundred years. Who can waste hundreds of years of life practicing martial arts like Qin Xi?

This is why most of the warriors in large families have higher cultivation levels than those in small families.

However, this is nothing to Qin Xi, as there are plenty of demon essences that can be deduced.

What he lacked was not the resources for cultivation, but the martial arts to cultivate. Even if Qin Xi accepted the family's recruitment and became a worshiper, the other party would not easily grant Qin Xi the family's handed down martial arts.

It would be better to take this opportunity to kill more monsters and exchange them for merits.

"No need, please help me refuse it."

Mo Zhanji was not surprised by Qin Xi's answer, as it seemed to be consistent with his guess.

"Okay, I'll turn it down for you. What are your plans for the future?"

"I plan to go find some monsters nearby and exchange them for merits. I will be able to break through to the Dan realm soon."

Hearing Qin Xi's words, Mo Zhanji was very surprised, but he said nothing.

He knew that Qin Xi was extremely talented, being able to enter the Qi realm in a short period of time, and had an excellent understanding of martial arts secrets.

However, there is a watershed between entering the Qi Realm and entering the Dan Realm. Even for a talented person, it is extremely difficult to break through to the Dan Realm.

Without the support of rare treasures, the chances of passing are slim.

There are even many warriors who, before they even reach the stage of condensing their energy into a pill, have their lifespans dragged out and die.

Even Mo Zhanji himself, a rare martial arts genius in the Mo family, spent a lot of financial and material resources of the family when he broke through to the Dan realm.

Now that Qin Xi has refused the family's recruitment, it would be a fantasy for him to enter the alchemy field with just the salary from the Demon Slaying Bureau.

But he knew that Qin Xi was unwilling to be bound by family power, so he did not say much, so as not to undermine Qin Xi's mentality for practice.

Qin Xi naturally didn't know what Mo Zhanji was thinking. After arriving at the courtyard, Qin Xi returned to the room and took a short rest.

As the sky gradually darkened, Lu Lingxian formed seals with his hands and summoned a wooden bird emitting golden light. This was the Lu family's exclusive communication tool.

Lu Lingxian wrote down everything about the Heavenly Demon Alliance in the letter, reminding his sister to pay more attention.

The wooden bird took the envelope and its body turned into golden dust. The wooden bird passed the envelope to my sister in an instant.

After delivering the letter, Lu Lingxian was about to stand up and remind Captain He to be on guard against this matter when a wooden bird shining with golden light actually flew into Lu Lingxian's hand.

Lu Lingxian took the envelope and saw the words written in elegant handwriting: My sister is in danger, come back soon!
