On the outskirts of the city, by the Baisha River.

The men and horses of the Yuyao Department stopped at the river bank. Li Shantao stepped on a silver-white carp, and a milky-white flesh bead appeared between his eyebrows, shining with bright luster.

This white carp has turned into a demon and lives in seclusion by the Baisha River all year round. It makes a living by devouring corpses that have fallen into the water. It has been practicing hard day and night for seventy years and is about to become a evil-level monster.

"Sir, please forgive me. The little one has become a demon and has done no evil." The white carp demon opened its mouth, its tail flapped in a whirring manner, and its eyes like dead fish reflected boundless terror.

Even in Baisha River, it is not the strongest monster, let alone in front of Li Shantao, the commander of the Monster Control Department.

If the latter wanted to trample him to death, it would be easier than trampling an ant to death.

"Now that you have become a demon, I can't attack you anymore?" Li Shantao said with a domineering attitude and put a little force on his feet.

It is said that God has the virtue of good life, and all things can be cultivated. Even if they are monsters, they are divided into good and evil.

Therefore, within the Demon Control Department, there is also a special department called [Demon House Heat].

They are responsible for searching and counting monsters within their jurisdiction, registering them, and counting their types, practices, years, inheritance, etc. As long as they pass the assessment, they can be granted monster status and can live and practice in accordance with the law in human territory.

For example, in Baisha River, there are 137 monsters registered as monsters, and the white carp monster is one of them.

"I don't dare... I don't dare... The little demon doesn't dare..." The white carp demon said in horror: "No matter what the great power of the Lord sends you, the little demon dares not to obey."

The wails of pain and fear spread throughout the Baisha River.

Everyone looked at the scene in front of them, looked at Li Shantao, and couldn't help showing admiration.

As expected of a well-known veteran commander in Pingjiang City, when he first arrived at Baisha River, Li Shantao frightened the white carp monster out with just a loud shout.

Now, without taking action at all, he used his own power to completely suppress this monster and make it obey orders.

Such a method is worthy of Li Shantao's reputation and status.

"Commander Li is so handsome. Someone in the department had previously rumored that he had a false reputation, and even gave him the reputation of having a caesarean section in Pingjiang. I didn't believe it at first."

"Nonsense, Commander Li is a veteran commander and may even become a commander in the future."

"That's right. With his qualifications, even the commander has to be polite. Didn't you see that the other two commanders didn't say anything?"

In the distance, a group of demon-slaying guards looked on with admiration and began to discuss in low voices.

"Has there been any unusual movement in the river basin recently?" Li Shantao asked in a deep voice.

Before the start of each Dragon King Festival, strange phenomena will appear in the rivers of Pingjiang City.

During this period, the Monster Control Department needs to strictly supervise and not slack off even a little bit.

"Reporting to your lord, there is no abnormal movement." The white carp demon said in fear.

"What happened to that clam demon before?" At this moment, Wang Xuanzhi spoke.

That clam monster is a medium-level evil spirit. It stands to reason that there will never be a monster of this level in Baisha River.

On a stormy night, the clam demon transformed into a beautiful woman and took action, trapping and killing three fishermen and causing a murder.

Li Shantao glanced at Wang Xuanzhi and said nothing.

Logically speaking, when he was interrogating the monster, other people were not qualified to speak.

This is his temper and habit.

Therefore, Wu Yingyuan just shut up and remained silent.

If Wang Xuanzhi interrupted suddenly like this, he would definitely have been scolded by Li Shantao before.

Although they are both commanders, their connections and foundations are different.

But today, Li Shantao was surprisingly silent.

These days, Wang Xuanzhi's cultivation level has increased at an alarming rate. You must know that when he first entered Pingjiang City, he was only at the third level of true fire, but now he has entered the fifth level of true fire.

This kind of speed can be regarded as lightning in the entire Demon Control Department, and in recent days, Commander Long Ao has been very high on Wang Xuanzhi.

Therefore, Li Shantao surprisingly tolerated Wang Xuanzhi's questions.

"Return...I'll report back to you, sir. The clam demon was brave enough to go to the Nielong River. I heard that he swallowed the body of a Taoist priest who fell into the water, so he improved his cultivation level." The white carp demon was trembling with fear.

road.

The wider the river, the more dangers and monsters it contains.

Generally, monsters in the river area do not dare to enter the river at will. Once the attention of a powerful monster is attracted, it is almost difficult to get it back.

That clam demon was so brave that he sneaked into the Nielong River, and finally got the chance to enter the middle level of evil and went on a killing spree. He was simply crazy.

"You don't know how to live or die." Li Shantao sneered.

Such monsters that suddenly gain power often find it difficult to contain their desires. When their power surges, they go on a killing spree and use humans as food.

How can the Demon Control Division tolerate such a ferocious monster?

"I think you have a good attitude. Let's go. If there is any change in the river, remember to report it in time." Li Shantao waved his hand.

The white carp demon felt as though he had been pardoned, and kept thanking him, even turning Li Shantao into a living Bodhisattva.

Bystanders saw Li Shantao subduing a monster with just a few words, and the awe on their faces became even more intense.

Li Shantao was very satisfied with this effect, and it was no wonder that he secretly raised this white carp on weekdays, and it really came in handy at critical moments.

After returning this time, through the praise and praise of everyone, his reputation should rise to a higher level.

You know, if you want to gain a foothold in Pingjiang City, reputation is the best weapon to open the door.

Just like the three great commanders, who doesn’t have various legends that have been sung for a long time?

How true are those legends? Aren’t they just hyped up by everyone?

"Let's go!" Li Shantao waved his hand after seeing the effect.

The white carp was secretly happy and turned around to jump into the river.

Rumble...

At this moment, something unexpected happened, and a ray of fire fell from the sky, like a devil's claw, directly swallowing the white carp demon.

The poor white carp demon didn't even have time to scream and turned into ashes.

"who?"

Everyone's expressions changed suddenly, and Li Shantao even shouted loudly.

"As a human, how can you let go of monsters?"

At this moment, a cold voice came from behind Li Shantao, and a three-foot green blade came through the air.

"Do you think there is a weakness behind me?"

Li Shantao sneered, and his robe exploded, and the air was like a protective film, blocking the sword light.

Having learned a lesson and gained wisdom, Li Shantao today is very different from before.

He circulated his blood energy and jumped back, only then could he clearly see the appearance of the person in front of him.

It was a man, wearing gray armor and with a deep scar on his right cheek.

"Gong Jiannan!?" Li Shantao shouted out loud, unexpectedly recognizing the other party.

This name was extremely unfamiliar to many people, but Wu Yingyuan, who was also the commander, changed his expression.

"Devil-Suppressing Division!?"

The man in front of me is a master of the Demon Suppression Division, and is on the Demon Control Division's wanted list.

"How dare you come to Pingjiang City?" Li Shantao yelled.

"Why don't you dare?" Gong Jiannan chuckled.

"Okay, now that you're here, don't leave." Li Shantao laughed loudly, fighting spirit rising in his eyes.

Pfft...

Suddenly, a broad palm pierced Li Shantao's abdomen like a sharp blade. His pupils suddenly dilated, and he fell straight down without even having the strength to look back.

Everyone was horrified and looked back.

Among the river banks, a man in a green shirt walked slowly. His expression was indifferent and his eyes were as calm as water. If it weren't for the blood-stained hands, he looked like a young teacher.

This man was so terrifying that he was suddenly startled in silence, and he raised his hand to kill Li Shantao.

Such strength is enough to kill everyone here.

At this moment, everyone felt fear except Wang Xuanzhi.

He looked at the person coming, his whole body was shaking, his eyes were wide open, he couldn't believe it.
