One Dao Fruit a day, starting with the Dragon Taming Technique.

"Xiao Guang, what do you think Zhang Hu meant today? Was he being disrespectful?"

Du Changwei's face turned fierce. His father was a constable, and he was also a soldier. Killing people was a very common thing for him.

Zhang Hu's behavior was completely making a fool of Xu Guang.

"I'm going to get reinforcements. We'll flatten Zhang Hu, that son of a bitch!"

"Wait a minute, killing his whole family just for this reason is a bit untenable."

Xu Guang's expression was also somewhat unpleasant. What would others say if this got out?

"Zhang Hu runs a gambling den. Pass on the message that no customer is allowed to enter any gambling dens within the patrol area run by Zhang Hu."

Du Changwei nodded. "Don't worry, I'll have my dad say it. Those bastards have really gone too far."

"Brother, I'm going to check on Zhang Hu. If I don't return in an hour, take some men and go there."

Du Changwei frowned, not understanding what Xu Guang meant, but still nodded.

Although soldiers were not allowed to stay out all night, his father was a captain, and there were no generals in charge of the South Street camp, only three captains. If Du Zhong spoke, the other two captains wouldn't say much.

Shuocheng is close to the border, and even in late summer, the night wind still carries a chill.

Xu Guang pondered the significance behind Zhang Hu's actions today.

Disrespecting him? That's not right either, Xu Sheng is there too, he can't possibly disrespect Xu Sheng.

This is a bit strange.

It can only mean that Zhang Hu has something more important to do tonight.

He stopped and waited for a while outside the restaurant where Xu Sheng had treated him to a meal.

After a long while, Xu Sheng came out from inside, his face gloomy, with a woman by his side, who should be his wife, Zhang Hu's sister. The woman was clearly pleading with Xu Sheng.

But Xu Sheng just kept moving forward on his own.

It seems... Xu Sheng probably won't be going to Zhang Hu's house.

Thinking of this, a chill suddenly appeared in Xu Guang's eyes.

Since that's the case, let's use a sting operation and have Du Changwei take Zhang Hu directly to prison.

With these thoughts in mind, Xu Guang strode towards Zhang Hu's house.

Just as they were about to arrive at Zhang Hu's house, a hurried sound suddenly came from next door.

"Help!"

It was a female voice.

The words "help" immediately caught Xu Guang's attention.

There's no such thing as domestic violence in this era. It's common for women to be beaten, and they wouldn't scream so pitifully.

Xu Guang walked over quickly.

He quickly climbed the wall and peered over it.

My mind was jolted.

There sat a bull demon, over ten feet tall, in the courtyard, holding a knife in one hand and pinning down a middle-aged woman with the other, humming something and looking quite content.

The scream came from the woman's mouth, but the bull demon had already gagged her.

The courtyard was filled with the stench of blood, the ground was a dark red, and a dismembered corpse hung under the eaves, along with three or four living people who were bound hand and foot, gagged, and trembling.

Xu Guang took a deep breath.

The tension slowly dissipated, replaced by a...unusual excitement.

Saving this family from the demons should be considered saving lives, right?

"who!?"

These demons had an incredible sense of smell; Xu Guang only glanced at them before they detected their scent.

Xu Guang glanced at his current state: he was wearing armor and holding a sharp blade.

He stopped concealing himself and landed.

"Who are you?"

The bull demon put down the middle-aged woman he was dismembering and looked at Xu Guang with a look of scrutiny towards food.

"Xu Guang, the soldier, is Xu Shan's son. Didn't Zhang Hu say you were looking for something my father left behind?"

Xu Guang spoke.

Upon hearing this, the bull demon's eyes lit up, and its nose twitched violently. "The thing is on you? Give it to me now!"

Xu Guang did not answer, and strolled leisurely to the eaves in front of the bull demon.

He reached out and pulled away the tattered cloth that the men were talking about.

Xu Guang looked at the group with a smile; there was an extra child, about three or four years old, than he had expected.

"Do you want to live?"

The group glanced at the bull demon out of the corner of their eyes. The bull demon's ferocious appearance was still imprinted in their minds, and they were speechless for a moment, only able to nod vigorously.

Xu Guang was still wearing armor, which clearly indicated that he was a member of the government.

"If you want to live, you have to speak up. If you don't speak up, how will anyone know if you're just messing around?"

"We...we want to live! Please, sir, save us!"

A smile appeared on Xu Guang's face.

"What are you doing?"

The bull demon's figure had unknowingly appeared five meters behind Xu Guang.

Give me the stuff!

Xu Guang raised his hand and slowly placed it on the long saber of the soldier hanging at his waist.

The soldiers were well paid and had all sorts of ways to make money, but they were also very extravagant. Whether it was warhorses, armor, or the body-tempering medicines they used for daily training, they all had to buy them with their own money.

This long sword and armor were commissioned by my father-in-law, Du Zhong, and were made with top-quality red iron ore. The armor cost forty strings of cash, and the long sword cost thirteen strings of cash.

He slowly turned around, his face full of smiles, and his clear black and white eyes gleaming with a strange light.

"Zhang Hu said you would give me five hundred taels of silver, where is the money?"

The bull demon was taken aback; this touched upon a blind spot in its knowledge.

These bull demons are all very stupid.

It didn't know how to pay Xu Guang, but suddenly an idea popped into its head: it could eat Xu Guang and then not have to pay him.

Thinking of this, just as he was about to speak, his eyes suddenly narrowed.

Before anyone could see, Xu Guang had already taken three steps forward. His aura suddenly swelled, and his arm bulged out at a visible speed. A steel knife was suddenly drawn, its cold light flashing and illuminating the moonlight that filled the courtyard.

Pfft!

The steel blade pierced the bull demon's chest.

With the dragon-ox transforming into three times its original strength, and wielding a hundred-forged steel knife worth thirteen strings of cash, it easily pierced the bull demon's abdomen.

Whoosh!

"Are you not planning to pay me, and you're planning to kill me instead?"

The bull demon, who was about to go berserk, was stunned for a moment, then looked as if his secret had been exposed. But soon, the pain in his body aroused his rage.

next moment.

His muscles bulged and his hair stood on end, making him look like a raging bull.

Xu Guang activated his snake sense and, in the instant the bull demon went berserk, anticipated its attack, nimbly dodged it, drew his steel blade, and stabbed down again.

The bull demon nearly went mad, raising his arm to block the steel blade in Xu Guang's hand.

To his shock, he discovered that his pride and joy in his strength had failed to disarm him, and... the steel blade was still slowly but surely piercing his chest.

He simply stopped blocking and instead clenched his fists, punching Xu Guang's shoulder repeatedly.

The banging sounds were very muffled.

Xu Guang remained expressionless. With the enhanced defense from the Dragon-Snake Transformation and the armor he wore, the bull demon's heavy blow, though not flirting, only caused him slight pain.

puff puff!

"If you're going to be a demon, then be a demon properly. Why are you trying to play tricks on me? Why aren't you paying me?"

Xu Guang thrust out several stabs in succession, almost turning the bull demon's chest into a sieve.

"How exactly did my father die? And what is your relationship with Zhang Hu?"

Xu Guang took a half step back, creating distance between himself and the bull demon, avoiding its berserk body.

The bull demon's eyes were bloodshot, and he was panting heavily, his eyes filled with ferocity and pain.

boom!

The massive body crashed to the ground, and Xu Guang stepped on the bull demon's head, staring at him with a sinister gaze.

"Will you tell or not?"

"I have no idea…"

The bull demon sensed that death energy was enveloping its head and finally spoke slowly.

Xu Guang sighed silently. The low intelligence of these demons was simply a headache. Zhang Hu was able to cooperate with such things, so he must not be some decent dog meat.

Whether he asked or not was no longer important; he had probably already guessed the cause of his father's death.

Because of the so-called Demon-Transforming Powder, they were targeted by Zhang Hu and his gang, which led to murder and theft of their shop, but they ultimately failed to find the little blue bottle.

Xu Guang's only remaining question is what role his second uncle played in all of this, and what kind of poison he ultimately ingested.

It's like a poison for demons.

Killing someone will make him bear the burden of human lives; law-abiding citizens will become villains.

But not when killing demons.

Xu Guang placed one foot on the bull demon's shoulder, holding his knife high in both hands.

The bull demon flailed its arms, but its struggles seemed utterly futile.

The family standing nearby stared in disbelief as Xu Guang plunged his steel knife into the bull demon's neck.

Xu Guang released his grip and silently watched the bull demon whose head was almost completely severed from its body.
