From a beggar on South Street to the supreme devil

Chapter 14 Demon
Three days later.

In the bedroom, Jiang Chen slowly exhaled, ending his practice for the day.

-

[Sap: Level 713 (1000/)]

[Bronze Skin: Minor Achievement (103/1000)]

……

-

[Sap] is still improving steadily, and after [Bronze Skin] reaches a small level of success, the efficiency of gaining experience has also decreased.

Without using the "Jade Skin Tempering Fluid", Jiang Chen could only gain five experience points every hour.

After using the "Jade Skin Tempering Liquid", it reached fifteen points.

Fortunately, along with the strengthening of the body, the improvement of Qi and blood,

The time available for practicing breathing techniques has also increased a bit. About thirty points of experience can be gained from [Bronze Skin] every day.

At this rate, he would be able to reach Bronze Skin level in about a month.

Okay.

No matter what, I finally have some ability to protect myself now.

The problem is that the money is running out.

During these three days he spent another five hundred coins, and the value of his entire body dropped to less than one or two ounces of silver.

Jiang Chen stood up, washed himself, changed into clean clothes, and walked out.

At this time, it was approaching dusk.

It's been three days, the custom-made fine iron rod should have been forged...

Jiang Chen pondered in his mind and looked up at the sky.

Then he left the courtyard and went to the blacksmith shop in Shun'anfang, took the forged iron rod, and paid three hundred coins for it.

He had only six hundred coins left in his possession.

When Jiang Chen walked out of the blacksmith shop,

The sky had completely darkened and the entire street was pitch black.

Jiang Chen picked up the fine iron stick and took a quick look at it.

The entire long stick is forged from fine iron, is about the thickness of a baby's arm, and is very heavy.

In addition, both ends of the long stick are wrapped with a layer of bronze and weighted.

The power of this stick must be much stronger than the wooden stick he had used before.

Jiang Chen had previously considered whether to change to another weapon to practice.

After all, compared to the stick,

The lethality of weapons such as swords, spears, swords and halberds is obviously stronger.

After thinking about it later, I decided to forget it.

After all, [Stun] has already been trained to the second level, and will soon enter the third level. It would be too much trouble to change it now.

And the long stick is not without its benefits.

An inch longer is an inch stronger. A long stick is inherently longer than a sword, which is an advantage in itself.

Although the spear is longer than the long stick, it is restricted everywhere and difficult to be effective in places like Shun'anfang where there are many narrow alleys.

After comprehensive consideration, Jiang Chen decided not to change and decided to stick to the stick path all the way.

……

Jiang Chen casually waved the newly acquired fine iron staff a few times.

A dull sound of breaking wind was heard.

After a moment, he became proficient in using the iron rod.

It was getting dark, and the streets were already dark.

The street vendors had already closed their stalls and the pedestrians on the road had hurried back home, not daring to linger on the street.

When night falls, demons appear.

Especially recently, several people have died in Shun'anfang due to the night attack by demons.

This caused panic among the people in Shunanfang, and common people did not dare to go out at night.

Jiang Chen looked up at the sky, then stood up and walked quickly towards the courtyard.

Time passes slowly.

Jiang Chen walked through the streets and alleys, passed the South Street Intersection, and was about to return to his own courtyard.

The South Street entrance was empty at this time. Qian Duobao must have finished collecting money today and returned to the courtyard.

Jiang Chen glanced at the South Street intersection and continued walking forward.

"what--"

A shrill scream sounded, and at the same time, there was a sound of houses being destroyed. Jiang Chen was slightly stunned, and subconsciously turned his gaze to look at the source of the sound.

I saw a house not far from the south street entrance.
The door was shattered and wood chips flew everywhere.

A huge figure stood in front of the house in the darkness.

It was over ten feet long and six feet tall, with black hair and ferocious claws. A wolf head opened its bloody mouth and bit the body of a beggar on the ground.

Is this...a demon?
Jiang Chen's pupils shrank.

He reacted the next moment, quickly moved towards a house and hid behind the wall to avoid being discovered by the demon.

He actually ran into a demon...

Seeing this terrifying creature for the first time, Jiang Chen hid behind the wall and silently observed the situation on the opposite side.

This wolf demon is several times larger than an ordinary wild wolf, and the faintly bulging muscles beneath its hair are enough to show how powerful this demon is.

A red line was faintly visible between the eyebrows of the head.

Jiang Chen knew that this meant that the demon was at the first level of strength.

It’s very dangerous…

Jiang Chen made a judgment and began to observe his surroundings to confirm whether there were any accomplices of the wolf demon nearby.

At this time.

The wolf demon took a few bites of the corpse on the ground, raised its head and looked at the other beggars in the house.

Most of the houses on South Street are dilapidated and there are not many habitable houses. Usually, a few beggars who know each other live together.

So, there were still three beggars in this room at this time.

Because the wolf demon blocked the door, they had no way to escape and could only huddle in the corner, shivering.

When he saw the wolf demon looking at him, he was almost frightened to death.

The wolf demon licked the blood-stained corner of its mouth with a scarlet tongue, and its eyes were teasing.

……

rear.

Jiang Chen frowned slowly.

If nothing unexpected happened, without my help, these three beggars would have surely died.

So, do you want to go...

There are risks if you do it.

No, after all, he was the constable in charge of South Street. He collected the rent from these beggars and it was his duty to protect the people of South Street.

Even if he ignored it, as a disciple of the Dragon and Tiger Sect, ordinary people and other beggars in South Street did not dare to say a word.

Ok……

Jiang Chen pursed his lips and began to analyze the strength between himself and the demon.

He knew how to distinguish the strength of demons. The line between the brows of this wolf demon was very blurred, which proved that this demon had just entered the first realm, which was equivalent to the minor success of bronze skin.

I am a bronze skin master, with a fine iron staff and the [Stun] skill, there is no reason why I cannot defeat it in a sneak attack...

That being the case.

Ferocity slowly appeared in Jiang Chen's eyes.

Then let's try out the results of so many days of hard training...

He stood up, used the breath-concealing technique of [Stun], and his body quietly sank into the darkness.

……

The wolf demon dug open the chest of the corpse on the ground with one claw, took out the fresh heart, opened its mouth and bit off, chewed it a few times, and swallowed it into its stomach.

Then he raised his head again, ready to step into the room and continue enjoying his food.

The atmosphere in the house seemed to have become extremely depressing, and several beggars were terrified and desperate.

The beggars in several nearby houses also noticed the situation, but no one dared to step forward to help.

I could only hide behind the window and observe nervously and anxiously.

call--

A sound of breaking wind suddenly sounded behind the wolf demon.

The wolf demon sensed something was wrong and wanted to jump away, but the house was too narrow and there was no room for it to move.

Bang!
The heavy iron rod hit one of its hind legs hard.

With a crisp sound of breaking bones, the flesh and skin on the wolf demon's left hind leg turned into a pool of mud and the bones were broken!

The wolf demon howled and suddenly turned back.

now.

Jiang Chen held a blood-stained iron stick and stood about ten feet behind it.

His eyes were cold.
