Ren Tianye's words clearly touched on a sore spot for Granny Sun. She pondered for a moment, then raised her head and said, "Lord Duke, the former Demon Suppression Division almost disappeared ten years ago."

"From the day our former leader of the Demon Suppression Division suddenly disappeared, our former Demon Suppression Division has existed in name only."

"The brothers in the Demon Suppression Division have spent countless efforts and searched for countless years, but they still cannot find any trace of their leader."

"Without a leader, our former Demon Suppression Division lost its backbone and was hunted down by countless people. Soon, some died and some were wounded, leaving only us old fogies who quietly disappeared in various places."

"They treated the former Demon Suppression Division as nothing more than a beautiful dream of launching an attack on the world."

After hearing what Granny Sun had to say, everyone in the tent understood the deeper meaning behind her words.

There was once a leader who established the former Demon Suppression Bureau, but later the leader disappeared, and the Demon Suppression Bureau was declared extinct. This shows that the leader was no ordinary person.

Otherwise, it would be difficult to organize an organization like the Demon Suppression Division.

only……

Why were they being hunted down?

Wu Xingzhou asked this question.

The one who answered was not Granny Sun, but Su Jin.

Su Jin smiled, though it was hard to tell if it was a bitter smile, and said, "The Demon Suppression Division is born to quell the chaos of love, sever entanglements of obsession, suppress inner demons, and consolidate the court."

"But in this bright and clear world, in this vast realm, there are countless bewitching demons who hate our Demon Suppression Division to the core."

"Our Demon Suppression Division is now granted special permission by the Emperor to act first and report later. Even with such power, it is still coveted by countless people. Moreover, the former Demon Suppression Division was just a civilian organization without official endorsement."

"Being hunted down is almost a certainty."

Granny Sun immediately looked at Su Jin.

His eyes conveyed only one meaning: You understand me!

He even took Su Jin's hand and said, "I saw you from afar a few days ago. You were wearing the Demon Suppression Robe and had the Love-Slaying Blade at your waist. Your eyes were full of murderous intent. I knew that the Demon Suppression Division was in your hands and would surely be able to kill the Demon of Love and restore a bright and clear world to the world."

This was a compliment from a senior, so Su Jin quickly replied, "You flatter me, senior. I was just following the Duke's instructions and doing what I was supposed to do."

"But you did a really good job." Granny Sun praised without reservation: "I believe that under the influence of the Demon Suppression Division and under your leadership, the world will eventually be a bright and prosperous place."

"Moreover, you are very good at using the unique features of our Demon Suppression Division, which I believe will influence more and more people, at least those I have heard of and seen."

"From Wusheng Pass to Huai'an City, far too many people have been affected by the Demon Suppression Division, and the number of bewitching demons in the world is rapidly decreasing."

Su Jin was stunned: "What's unique about it?"

"What makes it unique?"

"You don't know?" Granny Sun was also stunned for a moment, then said, "That's right. It took us many years to figure this out. Your Demon Suppression Division was established not long ago, so you should not have a deep understanding of it."

As she spoke, she exhaled and said, "Our Demon Suppression Division seems to be blessed by heaven. Anyone who has long-term contact with people from our Demon Suppression Division will not be entangled by the demons of love."

"Of course, if the love poison has penetrated deep into the bone marrow, there is nothing our Demon Suppression Division can do, but prevention and treatment are extremely effective."

Su Jin's expression of astonishment deepened.

Wu Xingzhou, standing to the side, suddenly realized something and said, "Granny Sun, if we follow your logic, Zhou Xiong was able to kill his wife before the battle because he was influenced by his master, wasn't possessed by lust, and could distinguish right from wrong?"

"That's right, exactly, even you are!"

Wu Xingzhou's head also began to buzz.

The rumors I've heard these past few days have gradually flooded my mind. In the military camp, after everyone learned about his deeds, they all said that he was extraordinary.

After all, although his wife Qin Shuyao was a bit of a scoundrel, she hadn't treated him badly. And if we're talking about the fact that he practiced on her 999 times, he still came out ahead.

Even in those times, he was still able to clearly distinguish right from wrong, do what he should do, and not be swayed by personal feelings.

Is it because of the influence of the former Demon Suppression Division?!

"Xu Xia and Yun Wanyi are just like everyone else!" Granny Sun added.

Xu Xia and Yun Wanyi, who followed them in, were also stunned. They had never understood why love-struck people were so prevalent in Huai'an City, but they had always remained clear-headed. It turned out that it was because they had been taken care of by Granny Sun since they were young.

The drastic change in the expressions on these people's faces convinced Ren Tianye of the extraordinary effects of the former Demon Suppression Division, but his heart was filled with turbulent emotions.

The Demon Suppression Division is just an organization.

The former Demon Suppression Division was merely a civilian organization.

Yet it can achieve this...miraculous effect.

And it just so happens to collide with the Demon Suppression Division he founded!

This can no longer be explained by the word "coincidence." He had a sudden inspiration and felt that it was an arrangement made by fate.

But it's hard to say exactly what it is.

They could only ask Granny Sun, "Who else remains from the former Demon Suppression Division?"

Granny Sun shook her head and said, "I only know these few people. After all, I joined the former Demon Suppression Division late and didn't know many people. Counting those who died, were injured, retired, or disappeared like the leader, there are very few left."

"However... as far as I know, Zhou Xiong's master joined the Demon Suppression Division much earlier than I did, so he should know more."

"But he also died."

"But I think that Zhou Xiong's master has been with Zhou Xiong for a long time, and the two are as close as father and son. Zhou Xiong probably knows something about it."

After a pause, Granny Sun knelt down again and said, "Your Highness, regardless of whether Zhou Xiong knows more, he is the garrison commander of Pukou City and has blocked Your Highness's path to conquering the world with his love-struck mind. Moreover, Zhou Xiong is a disciple of the former Demon Suppression Division, so he should not have done this."

"This old woman is willing to go to Pukou City."

"Try your best to persuade Zhou Xiong to surrender to the Duke."

Ren Tianye tried to calm himself down, helped Granny Sun up, and said, "Granny Sun, you are not young anymore. If you want to take such a risk..."

"Lord Duke..." Before Ren Tianye could finish speaking, Granny Sun said, "I am about to die, so I want to do something more. Besides, I have already lived a life without regrets because I met Lord Duke."

"Let this old woman hold up her bones as a torch, and burn one last time!"
