Begin immortality by slaying demons.

Chapter 638 Long time no see
"so close."

Madam Qinghua let out a sigh quietly. She hadn't seen her master for so long that she almost couldn't hold back her breath.

She almost forgot the last time she was able to help.

The pressure of working under the master is really too great...you may be replaced by new "colleagues" at any time.

Thinking of this, Qinghua clenched his fist slightly and encouraged himself.

The moment he stepped out of the magic circle, the golden body of Dharma that was more than ten feet tall quickly regained its indifferent expression.

The immortal official's reappearance once again caused a commotion among the surrounding creatures.

Normally speaking, if the immortal agrees to stay, he will stay for a while at least. Could it be that this Baiyun Cave has violated some taboo?
Or maybe this immortal official had no intention of making close friends with these juniors, and was just giving face to Patriarch Baiyun.

Everyone had different thoughts. After watching the golden statue fly back into the cloud curtain, they began to discuss it.

Countless eyes were cast towards the Baiyun Cave magic circle. After waiting for a long time, it was still as quiet as a dead zone, and some doubts could not help but appear in their hearts.

But when it comes to matters involving the gods of the Immortal Court, no one dares to ask too many questions, and no one dares to interfere in the slightest.

"Sir, are you going back now?"

Although several accompanying immortal officials were equally curious, they did not dare to ask too much. It was said that the newly appointed Bi Ma Wen was once an ascetic monk, born into a meritorious immortal family, with a rather cold and hard personality, and he did not even give face to General Qingluan Xuanwei.

To be honest, it was a bit surprising that the other party could enter Baiyun Cave and sit there for a while.

"Ah."

Qinghua nodded his chin slightly, and rode a cloud towards the fairy court with a group of immortal officials.

Using the White Rhino Seal to temporarily seal off this precious land should be enough for the owner to deal with the troubles here.

Compared to the complicated thoughts of outsiders.

The people from the Demon Slayer Division who actually witnessed the massacre were not very clear-headed.

The demon slayers from the other two prefectures have been through hundreds of battles and have dealt with countless matters, big and small, including many troubles related to the three religions.

But they had never seen a scene like today.

A "demon slayer officer" who had no sense of existence from beginning to end, did not express any dissatisfaction even when he was underestimated and deliberately ignored by Mei Jiyao.

Because of this, others actually thought that he was just a showpiece that General Yanlan put forward for formality.

After all, the most taboo thing for a new official is that the previous official fights for power and refuses to be disciplined. How could he tolerate the other two governments continuing to treat Meng Xiuwen as a demon slayer?

But the moment when the work really started.

This young man has really changed his appearance. It is no exaggeration to say that he is autocratic and never consults anyone.

In the past, the others would have reported him to their superiors, and at the same time would have wanted to stay as far away from him as possible to avoid getting themselves into trouble.

He does things without any scruples in front of the Immortal Court and is even more majestic than the immortal officials.

But now...

When the real immortal official turned a blind eye and even helped to calm the disturbance, the whole thing changed.

"call."

Mei Jiyao has been a demon slayer for so many years and is still alive today, so he certainly can't be a fool.

She stared silently at the young man in black clothes hanging in the sky in the distance.

The other party possesses the means of a Bodhi practitioner, an authentic immortal treasure mountain, and the connivance of the righteous gods in the immortal court... No, it can't be said to be connivance. I don't know if it is an illusion, but she seems to see a trace of deliberately concealed respect in that immortal official?

In such a complicated background, the other party is also a demon slayer!
The Demon Slaying Division nominally subdues demons, but its real duty is actually to restrain the followers of the three religions on behalf of the Divine Dynasty.

OK! This person in front of me has mastered all three religions!
"Who is this person? How did you get him in?" Mei Jiyao's heart palpitations were even greater than when she faced the immortal official just now.

What on earth is Jianyang Prefecture thinking? Don’t they even bother to check the details?

Taking a cultivator who is obviously closely related to the gods of the Immortal Court into the Demon Slaying Department so brazenly, how is this different from inviting an official into a den of thieves? !

"It was recommended by the God of Land." Meng Xiuwen looked a little ugly. Because he trusted Min Zhiyan too much, he was indeed a little careless.

The current situation is very clear. This person is definitely not the casual cultivator that the Earth God mentioned.

The traveler said, "The treasures of the immortals can be obtained by chance. This understanding can be fooled. What about the strange attitude of the immortal god? Was it also picked up?"
From a small place? By a small place, do you mean the residence of a certain immortal giant?
Being able to get a seventh-rank immortal official to help clean up the scene, Shen Yi's background must at least be that of a fifth-rank immortal official or above.

What kind of existence is that? He is a big shot who doesn’t even need to perform formalities when meeting the Human Emperor!
“If something really happens, you, you can just wait to be beheaded. Even if you are beheaded a hundred times, it won’t be enough to atone for your sins.” Mei Jiyao’s breathing became a little rapid. She obviously knew some of the real reasons why the Demon Slaying Division could not be discovered by the Immortal Court.

"..."

Meng Xiuwen's eyelids twitched violently. As the most powerful demon-slaying officer, the reason he dared to agree to Min Zhiyan's request to look after Shen Yi for him was because of his strong confidence in his own strength.

But he now began to feel that the situation was getting out of control.

Thinking of this, he took a deep breath, and his five fingers trembled slightly as they stretched out from his sleeves. A breath of astonishing purity gathered between his five fingers.

In just this one moment, it was clear that the disciple who had reached the sixth level under Patriarch Qingmei in the Yulong Sect did not die unjustly.

The black-bearded man frowned and hesitated, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he still looked away.

This matter is too big, so big that they are completely unable to bear the responsibility.

In any case, it is always right to control it first.

But at this moment, a green hand suddenly grabbed Meng Xiuwen's arm. Although it couldn't stop anything, its meaning was obvious enough.

"Ok?"

Meng Xiuwen glanced over and saw that the person who did it was Ye Jing, the little girl he always thought was a little too stupid.

"Think about it, why did Lord Shen do this." Ye Jing didn't quite understand the concerns of these seniors, but it was precisely because she didn't understand that she was able to see the essence of things.

Her expression was not too turbulent, but there was a serious light flashing in her beautiful eyes. Her voice was very soft, but it made the others all freeze in place.

"Hey."

The black-bearded man sighed and looked back again.

His previous hesitation was because he had not yet figured out the problem.

How could Baiyun Cave dare to provoke a young man who could be treated with such an attitude by a seventh-rank immortal official? If there was no hatred between the two, then what was the reason for Shen Yi to take action?

Coveting that ancient golden and jade tree?

The cultivator who possessed so many advanced skills finally sneaked into the Demon-Slaying Division and got the opportunity to show up, because this broken tree took the initiative to expose itself in front of him and others.

This reason is laughable even when it is stated.

In fact, the black-bearded man had a vague answer in his heart, but he just didn't dare to believe it. And because of his instinctive disbelief, he felt a little ashamed in his heart.

It is very likely that the reason is really very simple.

The Demon Slaying Division was to restrain the three religions and avoid unrest in China, and the other party, as a newly appointed Demon Slaying Officer, did not have as many fancy reasons as they thought, he was just performing his duties.

What this young man did was—

Thinking of this, the black-bearded man lowered his eyes to look at the ancient golden and jade tree that spanned the collapsed cliff. Inside the broken and magnificent gate, the mummies swaying in the tree palace were swaying gently like wind chimes.

"Eat the morning salary, and end the work?"

Mei Jiyao followed the black-bearded man's gaze and the corners of her lips twitched twice.

Even if the power given by the Demon Slaying Bureau is not enough, the other party will still get the job done even if they have to use their own connections?

"He hasn't received any salary from the Divine Dynasty yet."

Meng Xiuwen rolled his eyes. The pure spiritual light in his raised palm had dissipated. He slapped himself in the face: "Bah! Damn it! I'll go back and settle the score with that old bastard!"

"..." Ye Jing withdrew her hand and looked down again.

The thin figure came into her sight, adding a strange color to her eyes.

Of course, except for her, the expressions of the remaining demon slayers changed significantly when they looked at Shen Yi again.

He is capable and also courageous and responsible. One has to know that they had waited for the rest of their colleagues to evacuate before taking action, but they chose to stay. This move to distance themselves from the matter is too obvious.

His strength might be a little far from that of a true demon slayer, but considering that he is so young, catching up is just a matter of receiving a few more imperial auras.

Just looking at these, in time, the other party will definitely have the opportunity to get his own title.

The only drawback is that his identity is in doubt. Well, this will only be left to Jianyang Prefecture and General Yanlan to worry about.

In full view.

Shen Yi landed at the bottom of the cliff and walked forward with a clear goal until he stood at the foot of the towering ancient golden and jade tree.

His whole body glowed with golden light again, and his palms touched the tree trunk. In an instant, the entire ancient tree was forcibly shaken and pulled out from the cliff!

Such a brutal action made the demon slayers dumbfounded.

It is estimated that only the followers of Bodhi Sect can use this method to "subdue" a magic treasure.

"hiss."

The black-bearded man wanted to slap himself in the face. Shen Yi's current actions directly overturned all his previous thoughts.

No, do you really like it?
Let alone the existence of the Dao Fruit, the Golden Jade Ancient Tree is just a nice thing even for a sixth-grade cultivator.

Is the giant behind the other party used to raising his own children in poverty? Why are they starving like this?

"call."

Shen Yi forcibly shrunk the ancient golden and jade tree and stuffed it into the ring, then headed straight for the sect's Dharma Pavilion with a clear goal in mind.

"Master Shen, I, we...can't do things this way..."

Ye Jing was stunned for a moment, then quickly moved to stop him, weakly opening her arms.

The gold, jade and ancient tree could barely be called stolen goods, just like the fairy net last time, but if one rushed directly into Baiyun Cave and searched it, something would smell wrong.

The Demon Slayer Bureau, not bandits.

Eating the emperor's food.

"It's not that we can't do it this way." Mei Jiyao reacted faster and fell down with a wry smile. Shen Yi's two consecutive actions made her fear fade a little. She lowered her voice and explained: "It's not necessary. Someone will come to clean up when the time comes. If you need anything, just say a word. No one will say anything..."

"Moreover, a force like Baiyun Cave really doesn't have anything that can have any effect on a cultivator of your level."

Not to mention the demon slayer official, even an ordinary demon slayer may not sound like a high-level person, but a large prefecture only picks two of them, and their rarity is even far greater than the leaders of those large sects.

How could the Divine Dynasty possibly treat unfairly such carefully selected elite troops?

"What's next?"

Shen Yi also reacted, mainly because he was used to it and almost forgot that he had already broken through to the realm of True Immortal, which was comparable to the perfect cultivation of the seventh level.

"It sounds a bit strange." There was a hint of weirdness in Mei Jiyao's smile. She was flattered that someone who had been so violent and decisive before suddenly asked for her opinion.

She bowed her hands neatly and apologized for what happened earlier: "Don't worry, someone will take care of it. I'm sure you know someone."

I feel inexplicably sorry for General Yanlan.

"..."

Outside Baiyun Cave, although many monks had dispersed, it was still crowded with people.

In such a lively environment, it was difficult for an ordinary carriage to attract the attention of others, so it drove away quietly.

……

Jianyang Prefecture, Land God Temple.

There was a bang on the table.

Meng Xiuwen placed his palms on the table, staring at the old man in front of him with gritted teeth: "I'll ask you again, what is he?"

Min Zhiyan was stunned. Although he knew this kid's bad character, it was still quite rare for him to be so angry. "A wandering immortal from a small place, what's wrong?"

"I'm going to kill you, you've caused me so much trouble!"

Meng Xiuwen was so anxious that he walked around the land temple several times, scratching his hair hard, and he even looked a little crazy.

He had never been so conflicted in his life.

To be honest, judging from Shen Yi's temper, he really admired him. Just based on the other party's behavior after witnessing the tragic deaths of a group of innocent people in Baiyun Cave, if they had met him at an ordinary time, even if there was a huge gap between them, he would be willing to make friends with him.

But the problem lies in the particularity of the Demon Slaying Bureau.

Unless Meng Xiuwen's brain was full of shit, he would never believe a single bit of Shen Yi's self-described identity.

How can a person of unknown identity enter the Demon Slaying Bureau no matter how good he is in other aspects!
"..."

Min Zhiyan watched silently, his heart already in turmoil. It was obvious that something must have gone wrong again on this trip to Baiyun Cave.

And it is most likely related to the young man that I sent over.

He was about to explain something, but suddenly raised his head and looked outside.

After a moment, the land god stood up and said, "We will know what is going on once we see it."

"What are you looking at?"

Meng Xiuwen was stunned for a moment, then followed Min Zhiyan out of the land temple.

Outside the woods, a group of people, led by a dragon demon, came rushing over.

"Brother, does it really work?"

Zi Xian already felt a little ashamed. It was obvious that the God of Land had not yet figured out how to arrange for her and others, yet her brother still brought people over to bother him every day.

"Tsk! Don't take your face so seriously when you're out in public."

Zi Yang forced a smile and whispered a few words of comfort, but he sighed deeply in his heart.

If it wasn't for rescuing his father, who would be willing to give up being the dignified Prince of Donghong and run out here to serve as someone's grandson and flatter others?

He absolutely believed that most of the people behind him were extraordinary people, they just lacked an opportunity.

Thinking of this, Zi Yang tried hard to adjust his expression. When he turned around, he found that everyone around him had slowed down.

A moment of astonishment appeared on every face, and then the astonishment turned into many complex emotions such as joy, longing, and admiration.

Everyone stared at the temple gate.

There was a square table there, with a young man in black shirt lazily holding a teacup, and two old fairy children standing beside him, responsible for serving tea and pouring water.

They had seen those two fairy children before. They were not out of their reach, but they were definitely not friendly.

But at this moment, both of their faces were filled with smiles.

The young man in black shirt glanced sideways, his eyes slowly swept across the crowd, carefully examining each familiar face.

Wait until you see the last person.

He put down the teacup in his hand, stood up, and a warm smile appeared at the corner of his lips:
"haven't seen you for a long time."
