"Could it be that the Golden Eagle of the Swift Wind has arrived?"

The expressions of the several priests who were still discussing countermeasures changed, and the chief priest immediately looked at Xiao Tusi.

"Don't worry, let's hear what he has to say first."

Holding the Demon-Locking Chain, Xiao Tusi remained remarkably calm, speaking in a measured and unhurried manner.

"Didn't you hear what the Valley Master said? Speak up! Is this the demon or not?!" A retainer shouted at the disciple who ran over.

"Reporting to the Valley Master and all the honored guests..."

The disciple, catching his breath, said, "It wasn't a golden eagle, it was...it was someone from the Demon Slayer Division!"

"The Demon Slayer Division?"

Everyone was taken aback.

But soon, the worshippers secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as it's not that golden eagle in the wind, it's fine.

"What are the people from the Demon Slayer Division doing in my Medicine King Valley?" Xiao Tusi frowned.

Was it because they had private contact with the Six Doors, or because they discovered that the Flowing Wind Golden Eagle had visited their Medicine King Valley, so they specifically inquired about it?

As for whether it was the private purchase of crossbows and human trafficking, Xiao Tusi had never considered it.

Although the former was previously under the jurisdiction of the Demon Slayer Division, since the rise of the Six Doors, this function of supervising the sale of weapons has been taken over by the Six Doors, and the Demon Slayer Division no longer has the right to manage it.

As for the latter?

Although the Demon Slayer Bureau can handle this matter, it has nothing to do with demons after all. In addition, without sufficient evidence, the people from the Demon Slayer Bureau will not do anything to them. At most, they will just talk.

The more important thing right now is to deal with that Swiftwind Golden Eagle.

"Perhaps, we can still use the Demon Slayer Division to deal with that beast..."

Xiao Tusi's eyes lit up, and she wanted to find a solution that would satisfy both sides immediately, but now was clearly not the time to think about it.

"How many people from the Demon Slayer Division have come?" Xiao Tusi asked.

"Two...two people..."

Two people? Then it doesn't seem like a big deal.

Xiao Tusi didn't notice her disciple's pale face, assuming he was just nervous because he was being watched by a group of worshippers.

"Hurry up and invite them in!"

Even if he disliked the Demon Slayer Division, that was a private matter. In public, which of the various forces in the entire Great Jing Dynasty would dare to give the Demon Slayer Division a hard time?

Do you really think everyone has the protection of the emperor's six doors?

"Valley Master...Valley Master, they...they..."

"What's wrong with them? Speak up! What kind of behavior is this, stammering like that!" one of the more impatient worshippers snapped.

"yes!"

The disciple trembled, replying with a mixture of nervousness and fear, "They fought their way in!"

"???"

A wave of confusion swept through the council chamber.

Huge question marks appeared in everyone's minds.

What does it mean that the people from the Demon Slayer Division came up here by fighting?

Aren't there only two of them?

Two people dared to attack Medicine King Valley?

Have the people from the Demon Slayer Bureau gone mad?

Are you sure there are only two people?

Finally, the High Priest spoke first, asking uncertainly.

"It's absolutely true. There were only two of them. They didn't look very old, but they were ruthless and their attacks were deadly. Many of us were killed or injured," the disciple quickly replied.

"Could it be some hothead from somewhere?" Xiao Tusi wondered.

But now is not the time to dwell on this. The Golden Eagle of the Flowing Wind is watching us closely, lurking in the shadows, and could appear at any moment.

If these two members of the Demon Slayer Division are not dealt with promptly, things could easily go wrong.

"Let's go take a look!"

"Yes, Valley Master!"

..................

Medicine King Valley, at the valley entrance.

The originally solemn and silent atmosphere was broken by a series of chilling sounds.

The Medicine King Valley disciples who had been guarding various places were now all armed and surrounded the two people dressed in black tight-fitting clothes.

These two men were Mu Yang and Lu Zongsong, who swaggered in from the entrance of Medicine King Valley.

Behind them was a thick iron gate that had been broken open by brute force, and several mangled corpses lying in pools of blood.

Some had their heads missing, some had dents in their chests, and some were covered in ice, their bodies bearing the marks left by sharp blades.

"Enemy attack!"

"Someone has broken into the valley!"

"Immediately notify the Valley Master!!"

"Stop him! Stop him now!"

Upon hearing that an attack had occurred, the disciples of Medicine King Valley drew their weapons and rushed forward.

Mu Yang seized the opportunity to attack, his right hand gripping a black gold four-sided mace. With each swing, at least one person perfectly cosplayed as Louis XVI.

Occasionally, when a group of people attack, he will clench his free left hand into a fist and swing it out.

Before long, the land was stained red with blood.

Those behind, unaware of the situation, rushed forward in a swarm, while those in front, seeing Mu Yang as a god of death, were terrified and retreated in fear. In an instant, they surged forward and retreated in chaos.

"Calm down, everyone!"

Just then, a loud shout quelled the panic in the crowd.

The disciples of Medicine King Valley spontaneously dispersed, making way for each other.

A tall, muscular man with long hair came out.

"It's Chief Xiao Xian!"

"Great! Senior Brother Xiao is here!"

Seeing that tall and strong figure, many people breathed a sigh of relief, and the tense and chaotic atmosphere in the valley immediately dissipated.

Xiao Xian, son of Xiao Tusi, the master of the Medicine King Valley, is also the one with the highest cultivation among his many offspring.

Although he lacked talent in alchemy, he was quite accomplished in martial arts.

Now, having just turned forty, he is already a mid-stage expert in the Opening Aperture Realm, having opened five acupoints in his body.

This level of strength would place him in the upper-middle tier among all the worshippers.

"People from the Demon Slayer Bureau?"

Xiao Xian reached into his sleeve at his waist and a dark green spear was instantly in his hand.

Poisoned Vine Spear, a Tier 6 weapon.

Although it is not a magic weapon, its spear tip is made of poisoned vines, which are highly toxic. The venom of the poisoned vines is so potent that it can kill instantly upon contact with blood. Even a sixth-level martial artist would be in danger of losing his life if stabbed by it.

"Speak! Why did you two force your way into my Medicine King Valley and kill its people without cause?"

Xiao Xian raised the tip of his spear, which gleamed with a cold, eerie green light, and pointed it directly at Mu Yang and the other man.

Lu Zongsong glanced at Xiao Xian casually before looking away.

That blatant disregard made Xiao Xian's face darken.

But before he could speak again, Mu Yang casually tossed aside a headless corpse, took a step, and charged forward.

"How dare you!"

Xiao Xian was furious and immediately disregarded the other party's identity as a member of the Demon Slayer Division, unleashing a surge of true energy around him.

The true qi he cultivated was not the Qingnang True Qi practiced by the direct disciples of Medicine King Valley, but the Wood Leng True Qi, which was more adept at killing.

Although it is wood-attribute true energy, its sharpness is almost comparable to metal-attribute true energy. When combined with the poisoned vine spear he uses, the opponent will die from the poison if they are not careful.

"Since you won't talk, then don't blame me for being impolite!" Xiao Xian roared and charged forward with his spear.

However, the moment his spear tip touched the black gold four-sided mace in Mu Yang's hand, an overwhelming force that he could not resist was transmitted from the spear tip to his palm.

The force was unprecedented!

Xiao Xian even felt that even a sixth-order demon would probably not have such great strength.

No wonder they dared to come at us with just two people!

Xiao Xian sensed something was wrong and immediately tried to retreat, but before he could retract his gun, a crisp click sound rang out.

The poisoned vine spear in his hand cracked!

"My gun!"

Xiao Xian's eyes were bloodshot.

Mu Yang ignored him and attacked again, his huge fist rapidly enlarging in Xiao Xian's eyes as he couldn't dodge in time.
