"I am far inferior to my elder brother!"
With a sigh inwardly, Xiao Se pointed to the demoness that Wu Yun had found and said, "I want her."
"Young master, you have excellent eyesight. This is Miss Cui Cui, one of the most popular girls in our establishment!"
Although two young men failed to choose Cui Cui, it did not affect the madam's praise of her.
Xiao Se nodded, not caring about the girl's reputation or how much money she would have to spend. She just wanted to keep the demon there so she could make her move.
However, before the madam could leave, a talisman of light appeared out of nowhere and suddenly imprinted itself on Cui Cui's body. Instantly, flames exploded, and Cui Cui's whole body was engulfed in flames. She struggled in pain, and her fox tail was revealed behind her.
The others were shocked, not expecting such a turn of events, and even less expecting that Cui Cui was a monster.
Xiao Se's expression also changed slightly. It seemed that other experts had also intervened. However, he wondered if such a reckless move might alert the enemy.
Now that she's already taken action, she doesn't care who's behind it all. Since it's about slaying demons and eliminating evil, she naturally has to lend a hand.
"Dark Cloud, prepare to attack!"
Originally intending to lie low for a while, Xiao Se now decisively unleashed his runes.
Little did she know that the owner behind this talisman was Lin Yi.
Now that we've already made our move, of course we'll leave no one alive.
Under the Heavenly Eye, no demon could hide. Lin Yi was still in the private room, but the runes he controlled accurately found the fox demon one by one. With the power of a Heavenly Grade talisman and a Second Grade Talisman Master, he could kill the strongest demons who were no more than two hundred years old and the weakest who were only sixty years old without needing to finish them off.
In an instant, flames raged all around the Red Jade Pavilion, and screams and cries of alarm filled the air.
The musicians and dancers in Lin Yi's room were all stunned by the commotion, not knowing what had happened.
Lin Yi then put down his wine glass, patted the table, and said, "Why stop? No matter how noisy it is outside, as long as it doesn't bother us, that's fine. Come on, let's keep playing the music and dancing!"
With such a composed demeanor, who would have guessed that he was manipulating talismans to slay demons everywhere?
Chapter 311 The Burning of the Red Jade Pavilion
Amidst the flames of the Red Jade Pavilion, Zhang Lan, initially frightened by the noise, was no longer afraid upon seeing the composed Second Flower Master beside him.
Not only that, he even opened the window and started watching the commotion.
Outside, many men and women were running away in disheveled clothes, no longer caring about how much skin they were exposing, which Zhang Lan found exciting.
While visiting brothels on a regular basis is enjoyable, it lacks a certain fun. What truly appeals to him is the mix of haste and excitement, along with the exposure of certain things.
However, as he looked, he suddenly felt that the naked man below looked somewhat familiar.
Hey, isn't this my dad?
Seeing his father running as well, Zhang Lan burst into laughter, banging on the window.
Zhang Dawei suddenly heard a familiar voice, looked up and saw his rebellious son, who was still smiling!
Enraged, Zhang Dawei disregarded his own safety, kicked off the window, broke through the window, and grabbed Zhang Lan by the collar.
"Why aren't you guarding the gate properly at the Jingye Division? What are you doing here? Come with me now!"
When danger strikes, the difference between a father and a son becomes apparent.
However, Zhang Lan wasn't entirely unfilial; he just wanted to laugh it off first and then call Zhang Dawei over for refuge.
He got caught laughing right away!
Lin Yi glanced at Zhang Dawei and saw that his clothes were disheveled, with most of his legs and private parts exposed, which told him that his research this time was very in-depth.
Both were chief constables of the Jingye Division in the same prefecture, but he was far inferior to Guan Buping. At least Guan Buping wouldn't run away alone in this situation, nor would he only care about his son.
Displeased with him, Lin Yi coldly mocked, "You should first cover up your own disgraceful behavior before disciplining your son!"
When Zhang Dawei was told this, he remembered his posture and felt a little embarrassed. Then, a surge of anger rushed to his head.
"Where did this brat come from, daring to talk to me like that..."
Before he could finish speaking, Lin Yi slapped him against the wall from a distance.
"This time, I'm slapping you for your rudeness."
Zhang Dawei realized he had offended a master. Before he could even beg for mercy, Lin Yi raised his hand and made him float in mid-air again.
"This time, you're being punished for dereliction of duty."
Lin Yi threw a punch, and Zhang Dawei was hit hard, spitting out a mouthful of blood on the spot. He was sent flying out of the window and landed on the ground.
Zhang Lan was stunned.
Previously, at the gate of Jingye Division, he provoked Lin Yi so much, and Lin Yi only flicked his forehead. It looked scary, but he didn't actually hit him hard.
But now he's really beating his father!
Moreover, falling from the second floor must have been quite a fall.
The most frightening thing was that Lin Yi condensed a sword aura that hovered in the air, seemingly about to kill Zhang Dawei.
Zhang Lan dared not watch the show any longer and quickly said, "Senior, my father is blind to your greatness, please forgive him! Or, you can beat him up, beat him to death, but please don't actually kill him!"
"Do you think I hit him because he's blind?"
Ignoring Zhang Lan's pleas for mercy, Lin Yi's sword energy suddenly plummeted downwards. Zhang Dawei felt the sharp edge coming towards him and could only close his eyes and await his death.
But Lin Yi missed his target with this sword strike, only managing to cut off a single strand of Zhang Dawei's hair.
"If you're in a position of authority, you should fulfill your duties. As the chief constable of a prefecture, if you only care about your own enjoyment, you might as well be a gatekeeper. You'd better watch yourself!"
If Lin Yi hadn't witnessed Zhang Dawei's style, he wouldn't have resorted to such drastic measures over a mere verbal dispute.
Although it didn't kill him, that second punch was enough to keep him in bed for half a month.
He hates people who hold positions without doing their jobs, especially those who are passive and unproductive in special roles.
In a regular job, it's okay to slack off a little; who doesn't slack off a couple of times?
However, the Jingye Division is responsible for maintaining peace and tranquility during the night. The chief constable of the Jingye Division is responsible for protecting the peace of the entire prefecture. The more passive and lazy he is in his duties, the more danger the people will face.
Admittedly, the Jingye Division currently faces low returns and high risks, but he could easily choose not to be the guardian.
If someone becomes a guardian but fails to fulfill their duties, they might as well just guard the gate.
Even if this place has no guardian, it's better than having an inactive guardian.
After transmitting his message, Lin Yi did not linger there any longer.
There were no more living monsters on the field, yet Lin Yi's cultivation level had only increased by a little over four hundred years.
With over twenty monsters, each averaging over a hundred years of cultivation, he should have earned five hundred years' worth of cultivation. Clearly, someone was competing with him for monsters, but they couldn't kill as many as him, managing to steal only two or three.
Lin Yi didn't mind. He figured that the person who attacked the monster was probably a chivalrous person passing through the area.
Lin Yi had no intention of confronting the other party. He took off on his sword and left the Red Jade Pavilion.
This haul was pretty good. The smaller monsters weren't strong individually, but there were many of them, making it easier than fighting the larger monsters.
With the occasional monsters that appeared along the way, Lin Yi's cultivation level has now reached over 3,900 years.
Following this trend, Lin Yi will soon face another tribulation.
It's not impossible for someone to cultivate enough Taoist power to rival the judges of the underworld within a century.
Of course, we can't be too optimistic. As his cultivation level increases, the requirements for setting up the Blood Sacrifice Array will become higher.
Fortunately, the Demon-Slaying Manual gave Lin Yi hope. The top ten on the Demon Ranking are all formidable figures, and he will definitely have enough to kill.
After Lin Yi left Hongcui Tower, Xiao Se also cleaned up the scene.
She discovered that the mysterious talisman master was extremely precise, killing only the demons and not harming any mortals. She only helped evacuate the crowd.
As for putting out the fire, she didn't do that.
Not only that, she added fuel to the fire. Lin Yi's fire was only enough to slay the demon, but Xiao Se's added fire was enough to burn down the entire Red Jade Pavilion.
Xiao Se didn't want to waste time investigating the Red Jade Pavilion, but it was obvious that the owner behind it must know something if demons could so brazenly absorb human life essence in this place.
Even if we didn't know, a place like Hongcui Tower, a den of iniquity, must have had countless filthy affairs; burning it down would not be unjust.
The Red Jade Pavilion burned fiercely, the flames dancing and burning away all the filth.
Xiao Se heard people crying, laughing, clapping and cheering, and sighing with regret.
People's joys and sorrows are not shared; they have different feelings when faced with the same situation.
It's simply because they have different perspectives.
Xiao Se sighed inwardly, feeling a strange sense of understanding for her father at this moment.
Xiao Zhao was certainly not a good father, or even a good person, but there were reasons why he became what he is today.
However, now that she has embarked on a path destined to be his enemy, she will never regret it.
Regardless of Xiao Zhao's difficulties, she simply went ahead with her own ideas.
Seize the throne and break the curse!
Xiao Se cast two runes to protect the surrounding houses from the fire spreading, and then she was about to leave.
But just then, a cold voice suddenly rang in my ears: "So it was you who killed my servant?"
Chapter 312 The Mysterious Demon King
Upon hearing this voice, Xiao Se felt a sudden tightness in his chest.
She felt threatened by death, and even more so, she felt like she had a thorn in her side.
When she turned around, she saw a woman with her face veiled in white.
The woman wore a plain white dress, her long hair reaching her hips. A gentle breeze caressed her hair, making her look like a fairy.
But when such an extraordinary person appeared, the surrounding audience did not react at all.
Clearly, none of them could see the woman in white in front of them.
"who are you?"
Xiao Se was extremely vigilant, and the dark clouds lurked in the shadows, secretly stirring up his own fury.
This woman is terrifying; it looks like the cat is going to die today.
