Chapter 395 - A Small Test (1)

Cheng’an Prefecture City, in the Yufeng family residence. The entire residence was silent; there was no life in it.

“Sirs, be careful; that demon is very powerful. Including the servants, nearly 100 people in our Yufeng family were killed by that demon, but the residence-guarding talisman only injured her.” Old Master Yufeng led a few clansmen and looked nervously at the mansion.

“Don’t worry. Leave it to us.”

“It’s still very easy to finish off a newborn demon.”

The three Demon Vanquishers were sufficiently confident.

They were officials from the Demon Vanquishing Division and were mainly in charge of the surrounding area, so they were naturally the first to arrive when they received the news. There was an experienced senior among the three and relatively young rookies. With their teamwork, they were very confident in dealing with the newborn demon.

“I’ll help the two of you hold the fort. A newborn demon is most suitable for practice,” a stocky Demon Vanquisher said.

“Thank you, Brother An.”

“Brother An, just watch. The two of us can easily finish off this demon together.”

The three of them walked into the depths of the mansion.

Hu!

Suddenly, a faint blood-colored mist appeared in the mansion.

“Something’s wrong. Be careful.” The stocky Demon Vanquisher frowned slightly and took out a Demon Vanquishing Dharmic Artifact with his left hand.

The two young Demon Vanquishers were extremely solemn.

…

“Hahaha…” Suddenly, a woman’s ear-piercing laughter resounded throughout the residence. It reached outside, trembling the hearts of the awaiting Old Master Yufeng and the others.

“Quickly take a look at what’s going on inside,” Old Master Yufeng urged.

A bold nephew flew up a tree and looked into the residence.

The nephew suddenly widened his eyes and saw the three Demon Vanquishers’ corpses. He couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise, “Dead—they’re all dead.”

“Who’s dead?” Old Master Yufeng questioned.

The nephew leaped down and immediately said, “Let’s go, let’s go. The three lords are dead. Their flesh and blood have been sucked dry, leaving only their skin.”

Old Master Yufeng and the others turned pale and immediately ran away.

The news that the three Demon Vanquishers from the Demon Vanquishing Division had all died in the Yufeng residence quietly began to spread.

That night.

Whoosh.

An aqua mist descended from the sky and landed in the residence of the Yufeng family, condensing into a cyan-shirted elder.

“This is my territory.” A faint blood-colored mist spread, and a blurry, graceful shadow peeped at the cyan-shirted elder. “Get lost!”

“Young lady,” the cyan-shirted elder said with a smile, “a new demon like you wants to occupy this residence? This is right in the heart of the prefecture capital. Do you think the Demon Vanquishers in the prefecture capital will tolerate your existence?”

“This is my territory. Anyone who enters will die.” The slender shadow stared at the cyan-shirted elder. She didn’t attack due to the invisible, intimidating pressure.

The cyan-shirted elder glanced at her and nodded slightly. “For a newborn demon to possess the strength of a top Human Demon, I believe that you will become an Earth Demon after a year or two of tempering in the world.”

“Human Demon? Earth Demon?” The slender shadow’s anger intensified. “Leave!”

“I’m a city inspector under Mountain Lord Dongming,” the cyan-shirted elder said with a smile. “I see that you’re a promising talent, so I’m here to invite you to join Dongming Mountain.”

“What’s Dongming Mountain?” the slender shadow whispered.

The cyan-shirted elder laughed and said, “This world belongs to us demons! Ordinary people are nothing but cattle at our mercy! As for our Dongming Mountain… it rules Cheng’an Prefecture! The lives of Cheng’an Prefecture’s citizens are under our control.”

“What about the Demon Vanquishers?” the slender shadow asked.

The cyan-shirted elder paused for a moment and explained, “Demon Vanquishers have fought our Dongming Mountain for more than a thousand years, but they haven’t been able to shake us. Young lady, most of the powerful demons in Cheng’an Prefecture are in Dongming Mountain! A future lies ahead for you if you join Dongming Mountain. Otherwise… you will definitely be killed by the Demon Vanquishers.”

“You’re afraid of Demon Vanquishers, but I’m not. Scram.” The slender shadow pressed down again, and the surrounding blood-colored mist began to thicken.

The cyan-shirted elder frowned slightly and smiled. “If you don’t suffer a little, you won’t know how powerful Demon Vanquishers are. Forget it.”

Whoosh.

The cyan-shirted elder turned into a stream of aqua mist and silently flew into the sky, disappearing.

Only then did the slender shadow condense into a beautiful woman. The woman stared at the sky coldly before walking back into the depths of the mansion.

******

Early in the morning.

In the back garden, Xu Jingming sat in a pavilion. A golden bead floated above his left hand. Demon Vanquishing Dharmic powers seeped in, carving dense runes on the surface of the golden bead.

If I can’t gather any precious materials, I can only use gold to refine a Demon Vanquishing Dharmic Artifact

, Xu Jingming thought to himself. He led a relaxing life in the Demon Vanquishing World. Almost all his efforts were spent on the Primordial Star Conjecture’s Light Rays. The more he comprehended, the deeper his understanding of the few spells.

While cultivating, he also began refining Dharmic Artifacts. This way, it would be more convenient to deal with demons.

I’ve been in the prefecture capital for almost two months, but I haven’t killed a single demon!

Xu Jingming shook his head slightly.

There’s nothing I can do about it. I’m not as well-informed as the official Demon Vanquishers and the locals. By the time I receive the news, it will be too late.

I’m always too late in snatching the weaker demons. The famous demons are all at the Earth Demon level; none of them are easy to deal with.

Forget it. My strength will improve in a few months. When that happens, I’ll be able to deal with Earth Demons.

Xu Jingming was also very patient. Recently, he had been immersed in studying Light Rays. As one of the Paramount human legacies in the universe, it was infinitely profound.

Xu Jingming was infatuated with the feeling of experiencing constant improvements.
