"That dog demon was extremely ferocious. It not only murdered the Wu family's patriarch but also broke into the Wu family's treasury, preparing to loot it clean."

"At the critical moment, Constable Sun arrived in time and engaged in a fierce battle with the demon."

"I was originally taking Zijing out for a stroll. I happened to be near the area and heard the commotion, so I rushed over. When the dog demon saw me, it realized it was no match for Constable Sun and me, so it turned around and ran."

"Constable Sun and I chased after it all the way, finally cornering it in a small courtyard. But it was only then that we discovered that it wasn't alone."

"It was all a trap. It had two brothers who were already lying in ambush in that small courtyard."

"Constable Sun and I fought side by side, battling desperately. Because I was too weak, I could only entangle with the youngest dog demon. Constable Sun faced two demons alone, bearing the brunt of it all."

"During the battle, my strength was insufficient, and I was almost killed by my opponent. Seeing this, Constable Sun sacrificed an arm to kill the opponent, and finally helped me kill the opposing demon..."

"Constable Sun! What righteousness!!!"

Inside the Yamen of Qiulin County, County Commandant Hu looked at Shen Lin, whose face was filled with grief and indignation, wiping away tears from time to time. The corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitch.

I believe you about as far as I can throw you!

You're both at the Initial Meridian Realm, and you two fought desperately together, but Sun Zhi lost an arm, and a large chunk of flesh was gouged out of his back...

Yet you don't have a single injury on your body, and even your clothes are neat and tidy.

When interrogating the demonic cultivator before, County Commandant Hu had already noticed that something was off with this guy, Shen Lin.

And now, looking at his clumsy acting, he felt even more helpless.

This guy, doesn't he want to expose his strength that much?

Being so young, instead of fully displaying his talent, showing off, and enjoying the admiration of others,

He's acting like an experienced old monster, hiding his strength and pushing Sun Zhi to the front.

Sigh...

He looked at Sun Zhi, who was being treated, with some pity and said:

"In this case, Constable Sun has made a great contribution this time, killing the Third Head of the Black Wind Gang in one fell swoop. This kind of achievement will surely make him the focus of the entire Qiulin County."

Sun Zhi's face was pale, and he hadn't completely fainted. He still had a trace of consciousness at this moment.

Hearing County Commandant Hu's words, his eyes widened, and he opened his mouth, wanting to deny it.

But his weak body prevented him from making even a sound.

"I know, I know. Don't worry, I will report your merits to the higher-ups truthfully. You will not be short of rewards."

County Commandant Hu comforted him, but his eyes looked at Shen Lin.

Since this kid wants to hide himself, then I'll do him a favor.

As for Sun Zhi...

He has also gained such great fame, hasn't he?

Everyone wins!

Sun Zhi looked at County Commandant Hu turning away in despair.

Previously, Shen Lin had attributed all those things to him, which led to him almost being hacked into pieces and stewed this time.

Now, he's throwing the case of the Third Head of the Black Wind Gang onto his head again...

He didn't dare to imagine what kind of danger awaited him in the future.

Wouldn't those mountain demons regard him as a thorn in their side and a thorn in their flesh?

Thinking of this, he couldn't catch his breath and fainted in one breath.

Shen Lin looked at the scene of Sun Zhi being frantically treated by the medical officer, put away the grief and indignation on his face, and smiled softly.

Since Sun Zhi managed to return to the county Yamen, he still has a lot of value to squeeze out in the future.

This time, three demons at the Initial Meridian Realm were attracted to him, directly earning Shen Lin more than seven hundred years of demonic lifespan.

How much will there be next time?

Thinking of this, Shen Lin felt that the future was promising and prepared to go home and rest.

But just as he stepped out of the hall, he saw Steward Qian running over in a hurry.

"That's great, Brother Shen, you're here."

Seeing him looking relieved, Shen Lin asked with some doubt: "Steward Qian, are you looking for me for something?"

Steward Qian shook his head and said: "It's not me, it's the County Magistrate who wants to ask you about the case of the demonic cultivator before. After all, the person who died that time was the County Magistrate's nephew."

The previous demonic cultivator was silenced, and the County Magistrate scolded County Commandant Hu and Steward Qian severely.

However, the County Magistrate praised Shen Lin highly, calling him a talented young man repeatedly.

Now that the County Magistrate is looking for Shen Lin, it's estimated that it's not just for that case, but also to win him over.

Thinking of this, Steward Qian hesitated for a moment and said: "Brother Shen, we've known each other for so long, the County Magistrate's side..."

How could Shen Lin not understand what he meant? He immediately smiled and said: "Steward Qian, don't worry, that matter was just an accident. I'll say some good words to the County Magistrate."

"That's good, that's good. I'll trouble Brother Shen."

"It's my duty."

After exchanging some pleasantries, Shen Lin bid farewell to Steward Qian and came to the backyard of the County Yamen.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, his eyes narrowed, and he inadvertently looked at the stone pavilion on the side.

An old man with white hair and beard was sitting there in meditation.

He was dressed meticulously. Although he looked very old, his mental outlook was very good. His back was as straight as a pine tree, and his body was strong.

Jin Biker Du Yuanshan, with the cultivation of the Initial Meridian Realm, was an attendant brought by the County Magistrate when he took office. His Judge's Pen can split rocks and open gold. It is said that he can be regarded as the number one expert in Qiulin County.

Seemingly feeling Shen Lin's gaze, he slowly opened his eyes, looked at Shen Lin, and showed a gentle smile.

Shen Lin has now opened up ten meridians. His control over the power of Qi and blood has been improved again. All the power of Qi and blood is restrained. From the outside, he looks like an ordinary martial artist.

But the other party should have seen that Shen Lin was hiding something. Otherwise, based on the other party's identity and strength, I'm afraid he wouldn't treat a young man so gently.

Shen Lin nodded, as a greeting, and walked towards the inner courtyard.

"Oh, Brother Shen, I'm so glad to see you."

An old scholar with a mustache and a paper fan in his hand came forward and greeted him warmly.

"Greetings, Master Li!"

"No need to be polite, come, the County Magistrate has been waiting for a long time."

He grabbed Shen Lin's arm very enthusiastically and led him into the house.

This is the County Magistrate's study, which is very spacious, with countless books placed against the wall.

Behind the willow desk sat a man with a dignified appearance, who was the County Magistrate of Qiulin County, Lin Youwei.

The County Magistrate of the Great Wei Dynasty, in charge of the military and political affairs of a county, is not only responsible for managing the people under his rule, but also bears the responsibility of slaying demons and eliminating evil.

However, this County Magistrate Lin is not a martial artist, but a thorough scholar.

At this moment, he was holding a writing brush and constantly sketching on the documents. When he saw Shen Lin coming in, he just raised his head and showed a smile before continuing to work.

"The Magistrate has some things to deal with, Brother Shen, please wait a moment."

Master Li poured Shen Lin a cup of tea.

Shen Lin smiled, neither humble nor arrogant, and said: "It should be."

After a long time, Lin Youwei finally put down the writing brush and took a long breath. Only then did he raise his head and look at Shen Lin with a smile.

"He is calm and steady, unlike that guy Hu Dongxing who is so impatient. You are very good!"
