Chapter 282 Disaster Begins From Peace
In Ping'an Town, it's raining in the empty mountains, and clear dewdrops are rolling on the grass blades.
A pair of slender jade hands reached out and shook gently, causing dewdrops to fall into the white porcelain pot.
"Captain Qingwan, you are so kind. You get up so early every day to collect dew for Chen Duwei."
A young girl stood by and couldn't help but said.
She was wearing the uniform of the Demon Slayer Guard, with three white feathers embroidered on her chest. It looked like she had just joined the Demon Control Division not long ago.
"Master has worked hard for the Demon Control Division for many years, and has a lot of hidden diseases on his body. He needs to brew Jiu San Dan with dew every day." Wang Qingwan said softly.
As the capital guard, Chen Qinggang can be said to have worked hard for the Demon Control Division over the years, fighting hundreds of major and minor battles.
Especially in the past year, I have experienced incidents such as the cat demon scholar, Wang Hongbo's defection, insect demon parasitism and other incidents. I don't know how many injuries I suffered, and I spent half of the year on the bed.
Fortunately, Wang Qingwan was very filial and took good care of her.
"I don't know who will be lucky enough to marry Captain Qingwan in the future." The girl He Ning said.
Wang Qingwan remained silent, lowered her head, and collected dew.
Compared to when Zhou Dao left Ping'an Town, her temperament was still as cold as her name.
As two characters in the Demon Control Department of Ping'an Town, she and Gu Xiangling have completely different temperaments. The latter is enthusiastic and sassy, so she has many suitors over the years.
Just like Xu Qian back then.
As for Wang Qingwan, she is stunningly beautiful and graceful. She is also the captain of the Demon Control Division.
However, it is because of her cold temperament that many men stay away and dare not approach her.
Over the years, apart from Huo Changen who was killed by Xu Qian, there was only one Zhao Guangming, hiding in the dark and waiting silently.
Rumble...
Suddenly, there was a loud noise in the mountains, smoke and dust rose into the sky, and birds and beasts ran around without books.
Wang Qingwan stopped moving and looked up.
"Captain Xiang Ling is training hard again!" He Ning looked in the direction of the smoke and dust and couldn't help but said.
Although she had only joined the Demon Control Division for less than two months, she also knew that Captain Gu Xiangling was a well-known cultivator. Although she was a woman, her diligence ranked first in the Demon Control Division.
Even Zhang Beixuan, the imperial guard, praised him highly and claimed that one day, Gu Xiangling would be able to leave Ping'an Town.
Wang Qingwan slowly withdrew her gaze and remained indifferent.
She knew that when Wang Xuanzhi took Zhou Dao and Ma Yinglong to Pingjiang City, Gu Xiangling felt a surge of energy in her heart.
Especially Zhou Dao, as a demon sealing master, actually obtained the qualification to go to Pingjiang City, which greatly stimulated Gu Xiangling's self-esteem.
From then on, Gu Xiangling practiced desperately, hoping that one day he could enter Pingjiang City, stand in Zhou Dao, and stand in front of Wang Xuanzhi.
"Captain Qingwan, I heard that there was a demon-sealing master in the department who was transferred to Pingjiang City. Is this true?" He Ning couldn't help but ask.
In the two months since he entered the Demon Control Division, the name he heard the most was Zhou Dao.
This mediocre demon sealing master had worked in the Demon Control Department for two years and had almost no sense of existence. However, just over four months ago, he suddenly rose to prominence, soared into the sky, and directly left behind the two guards.
As well as outstanding demon-slaying guards such as Wang Qingwan and Gu Xiangling, they got a place to go to Pingjiang City.
This was simply unbelievable in He Ning's eyes.
"How can you enter Pingjiang City if you are so ordinary?" He Ning asked her own question.
"Ordinary?" Wang Qingwan paused slightly with her jade hands, and a flash of brilliance flashed in her beautiful eyes.
"Perhaps, he didn't have a normal life just now."
Rumble...
At this moment, there was another loud noise, which was rapid and deafening.
Wang Qingwan changed color slightly and turned her head sharply.
The smoke and dust soaring into the sky filled the sky wildly, as if lingering clouds were sweeping over her, enveloping her with an aura that made her heart palpitate.
This aura is different from the past, and it is definitely not caused by cultivation.
"Go back quickly..." Wang Qingwan whispered.
Her figure swayed like the rustling autumn wind, and in the blink of an eye she flew several feet away.
Deep in the mountains, a tree collapsed.
The scattered smoke and dust were filled with a strong smell of blood.
Gu Xiangling fell in a pool of blood. A blood hole was torn open in her lower abdomen. Scarlet blood was gurgling and her organs could even be seen. The bones of her right arm were shattered and pierced out from the flesh...
At this moment, Gu Xiangling was motionless, his breath was weak, like a candle in the wind.
"Tsk, tsk, you are so weak. In such a remote place, there are actually ants..."
The joking voice was sharp and harsh, scattering the smoke and dust, and his big foot fell down, directly stepping on Gu Xiangling's head, forcing him into the soil.
The thin man glanced down, with a hint of pleasure on his face, and his eyes were like examining an insect.
"Even masters of eight transformations are rare in such a mountain town."
Behind him, a middle-aged man wearing a Taoist robe walked out. He had chest-length beard and hair, a fair complexion, and a blood jade on his waist.
Sun Qu turned his head and grinned: "Uncle Master, can't we do whatever we want?"
"Don't forget our purpose. The Yuan clan's ancestral artifact should be in this town." Gui Mingzi said.
"That loser Yuan Shaoqing has failed in the cultivation of our Guiji Sect after all, but we, the Guiji Sect, are determined to get that treasure from their family." Gui Mingzi said calmly.
At the beginning, the Ghost Sacrifice Sect spent a lot of effort on Yuan Shaoqing. In addition to focusing on his own luck, the most important thing was the ancestral treasure of the Yuan family.
As long as Yuan Shaoqing is in his hands, sooner or later that thing will be in the pocket of the Ghost Sacrifice Sect.
It's a pity that Yuan Shaoqing's destiny was too weak and his blessings were shallow, so he didn't let the Ghost Sacrifice Sect wait until that day before his soul returned to the stars.
The Yuan Clan is finished, but the ancestral artifact will still fall into the hands of the Ghost Sacrifice Sect.
"Fortunately, all these years of hard work have not been in vain. I never thought that Yuanmen would put such an important thing in the hands of a useless old man who is about to be buried." Sun Qu grinned and sneered.
As a master of the ninth level of True Fire, this small peace town is like an ant nest in his eyes, which can be broken through without any difficulty.
Not to mention, there was also a master of the Nine Transformations of Refining Realm accompanying him this time.
Obviously, the Ghost Sacrifice Sect attaches great importance to the Yuan Clan's ancestral artifacts.
"Don't waste time, go ahead, this mountain town is your hunting ground." Gui Mingzi said calmly.
"As long as you can find that treasure, you can do whatever you want..." Gui Mingzi sneered.
"Hey, I just obey my uncle's orders." Sun Qu grinned, his ears stood up, and a flash of excitement flashed in his eyes.
"Another insect came over..."
…
At noon, on the official road, a carriage drove slowly.
"Finally home."
Wang Xiaoyi stuck his head out and looked at Ping'an Town, which he could vaguely see in the distance, with a long-lost smile.
This is the first time in his life that he has been away from home for so long.
"Ping'an Town is back again."
Zhou Dao couldn't help but sigh when he looked at the familiar scenery outside.
When he left Pingan Town, he was only at the fifth level of True Fire, but now he has entered the ninth level of the Refining Realm.
"It's time for dinner, let's go see Mr. Yuan first..."
When he came back this time, Zhou Dao still wanted to see his old friends, Mr. Yuan, Uncle Qin, Zhao Guangming, Lao Wang Baozi Shop... and his former colleagues from the Monster Control Department.
Not long after, the carriage drove into Ping'an Town.
Chapter completed!
