He really doesn't have time now, and at least he has to train a Demon Suppressor to come out, otherwise he won't be able to leave the Demon Suppressor for the time being.
Mo Heng and Prince Huo Tuo thanked Lu Ning for his help respectively. Na Qing Huoyang said little, but also invited Lu Ning to visit the Fire Kingdom.
At the south gate of the city, Lu Ning sent away five people.
Returning to the Demon-Suppressing Division, I looked at the list of dead soldiers on the desk. All of them, including Beimang Tiefutu, Iron Cavalry and Kyushu Infantry, totaled 200,000.
After counting, Lu Ning gave the list to Zhang Juming.
Zhang Juming was the chief minister of the cabinet, and it was his responsibility to arrange matters related to the funeral of soldiers.
Lu Ning stopped asking and began to order the three armies. Those who should go back to Beimang should go back to Beimang, and those who should go to Yongzhou should go to Yongzhou.
Before Mu Yan left with 300,000 silver-armored troops and black dragon riders, Lu Ning specifically told him to keep an eye on Young Master Jinlin of Sangzhou.
Lu Ning had some suspicions that Young Master Jinlin was probably a puppet trained by Taichu Jianmen.
Mu Yan was asked to keep an eye on Mr. Jinlin, not to find out Mr. Jinlin, but to see if he could find Zhongli.
"Zhongli?"
Mu Yan frowned, "My nephew?"
After he came out, he went to Zhongli's hometown to look for his sister, but found no one. He found out that Zhongli had gone to Tianshi Dao to practice. However, Zhongli left Tianshi Dao to experience the world and there was no news.
"Yes, please pay attention. After a while, I will go to Sangzhou in person to find Mr. Jinlin." Lu Ning said with a frown.
"good!"
Mu Yan nodded and headed towards Yongzhou with 600,000 cavalry.
"Marquis Shenwu, I am also going back to Beimang. When will you come to Beimang as a guest?" King Beimang walked up to Lu Ning and said with a bold smile.
"I'll go when I have time." Lu Ning said with a smile.
"Okay, I am in Beimang, waiting for you at any time."
King Beimang smiled and turned to leave.
Xue Jingnian gave Lu Ning a fist-cup salute: "You must come and see the prairie of Beimang."
Lu Ning nodded.
Next, Lu Ning dispatched the remaining Silver Armored Army, Black Dragon Riders, and began to head towards the various states.
Only the Black Tiger Cavalry was left in Beijing and Zhou to garrison the imperial city.
Pei Tianbei worked in the Demon Suppression Division, so the Black Tiger Cavalry was temporarily placed under Pei Feng's control.
June 18th.
Experience: 271.5 million points.
The land of Jiuzhou in the Great Zhou Dynasty finally settled down.
The Demon Suppression Department has also begun to operate normally, but it is very short of people and is currently recruiting talents.
On this day, Lu Ning and others came to Su Jianxing.
Su Jianxing is the leader of the Tianshan Sect. In fact, Su Jianxing is the only one left in the Tianshan Sect. There is nothing he can do if he is not the leader.
Su Jianxing felt relieved about Lu Ning's murder of his three senior brothers.
Lu Ning also kept his word and gave Su Jianxing the status of a thousand households to follow him.
Su Jianxing joined Zhenmo Division, firstly because he admired Lu Ning, and secondly because he wanted to learn Zhenmo Division's "Great Conferring God Technique".
Lu Ning took Su Jian down to the secret room. Lin Jian was also in the secret room, studying the "Great Art of Conferring Gods". When he saw the two people coming in, he shook his head speechlessly: "It's really difficult to learn, it's too complicated."
"Who is this……!?"
Lu Ning smiled and said: "The leader of the Tianshan Sect, Su Jianxing."
Lin Jian said with a sudden look on his face: "I know, Tianshan Swordsman, Su Jianxing."
"My name is Lin Jian, a disciple of the Ziyang Sect."
Su Jianxing nodded and said: "I know that you, a swordsman prodigy, have time to spar."
Lin Jian grinned and said, "No problem!"
Su Jianxing also chuckled. After all, he was much older than Lu Ning and Lin Jian, so he had to be more calm. His eyes fell on the book in Lin Jian's hand, "Is this the best sealing technique in the world?"
"Not bad, let's watch together."
Lin Jian nodded. Now that he has an official position, he can naturally read "The Art of Conferring Gods".
Lu Ning said: "Read it first. If you can remember it, remember it first and then study it. If you can't remember it, study it slowly."
"One thing you have to remember is that you can see and learn the great art of conferring gods, but if you are not a member of the Suppressing Demon Division, you are not allowed to teach it to anyone else. Otherwise, you will be a traitor to the Suppressing Demon Division."
Lin Jian smiled and said: "I understand."
Although Su Jianxing was a little awkward, he also said: "I understand."
Leave the secret room.
Lu Ning went to Tianji Tower and began to check the news coming back from all over Kyushu.
Some news is useful, some news is useless, and some are cases, such as murder, robbers, monsters, etc.
This kind of thing will happen from time to time even if the world is stable.
After all, the Zhou Dynasty had a population of tens of billions, and it was extremely normal for one murder to occur every day.
But most of these cases are handled by local governments.
Unless they encounter a difficult case, the local government will ask the Demon Suppression Division to help investigate.
Lu Ning's current plan is to recruit talents first, and then go to Qiu Shan Academy at the end of the month to bring Concubine Qi back to the palace.
Starting early next month.
He traveled across the rivers and lakes to settle accounts with those Jianghu sects.
Any sect that supported King Yongshan's rebellion will definitely not be spared, starting from the smaller sects, and punished one by one.
Therefore, Lu Ning has also been collecting information about Jianghu sects recently.
Heavenly prison.
In a small room on the first floor.
When Zhou Hao saw Lu Ning, he was particularly respectful.
"See my lord."
"Brother Zhou, are you feeling better?"
Hearing that Marquis Shenwu called him Brother Zhou, Zhou Hao was a little flattered and nodded repeatedly: "Thank you for your concern, sir. It's much better."
Lu Ning nodded: "Zhao Bing is dead. Brother Zhou will take care of his family. If there are innocent people who are willing to work in Tianlao, they can be recruited."
Lu Ning has not forgotten Zhao Quan's care for him, but Zhao Bing's death was something he did not expect.
Now that I have some free time, I should make up for the Zhao family.
He then walked around on the first floor of the prison, accompanied by Zhou Hao.
As for Zhou Xiao who was imprisoned, he was released long ago.
Ruan Ping lay dying in the cell, and Li Hongmao and other officials were beaten until their bodies were covered in blood.
When they saw Lu Ning, their eyes were filled with venom and resentment.
Lu Ning didn't care about this, and asked Zhou Hao to send someone to buy some braised beef and two jars of wine, and carried them to the third floor of Tianlao.
When Chen Tianqi saw Lu Ning, he gave him a thumbs up: "He deserves to be named the number one God of War in the Great Zhou Dynasty."
At Lu Ning's age, he is capable of turning the tide and turning things around.
He even dared to shout out to Feng Chu Yi that he would set a date for the challenge.
For at least a thousand years, there was only one person named Lu Ning.
"Mr. Chen, I'll give you a repeat offender."
Lu Ning said with a smile, then took out the female ghost emperor Gu Yinghong from the jade belt and suppressed her in the fourth-floor cell of the Tianlao.
"This female ghost queen...!?"
Chen Tianqi frowned slightly, maybe because he was ignorant, but he had never heard of it.
"Tianshi Dao, the female ghost queen in the seal tower."
"No wonder!"
Chen Tianqi nodded after hearing this.
Thunder and lightning formations criss-crossed the cell. The female Ghost Queen Gu Yinghong's face was ferocious as she stared at Lu Ning: "You brat, you dare to imprison me in such a dark place?"
"Just wait, one day I will go out and be the first to turn you into a ghost."
"Let's wait until you can come out."
Lu Ning shook his head speechlessly and followed Chen Tianqi to the third floor of the prison.
"Has Mo Jiu's problem been investigated clearly?"
In the class room on the third floor, Chen Tianqi and Lu Ning were drinking and playing chess.
Lu Ning took a sip of wine and said, "Mo Jiu, whose real name is Mo Dabai, grew up in the same village as Na Wen Ren Tang. Before entering Tianlao, he was a disciple of the Ba Zong, and he and Wen Ren Tang can be considered brothers."
"Because of a woman, Mo Jiu left Ba Zong, and later moved to Beijing and Zhou Dynasties and entered the Tianlao as a jailer. He stayed there for eighty years."
"As for rescuing Zhou Xiao, Zhou Xiao doesn't know much about it. He only said that there was a conspiracy between Mo Jiu and King Yongshan. It should be that King Yongshan promised Mo Jiu to control the Overlord Sect."
"Everyone is dead, and we can't ask about the specific situation."
Chen Tianqi nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
Finally, Chen Tianqi reminded: "On the battlefield, you killed so many second-grade strong men, be careful that their sect seeks revenge on you!"
Lu Ning smiled and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Chen. Even if they don't look for me at the beginning of next month, I will look for them."
Chen Tianqi looked surprised: "Hey, are you planning a big purge?"
Lu Ning chuckled lightly: "The Demon-Suppressing Division was originally responsible for supervising hundreds of officials. The world's sects, Jianghu sects, and aristocratic families all responded to King Yongshan's rebellion and fully supported it. Shouldn't it be carefully investigated and cleaned up?"
Chen Tianqi nodded: "It's time to clean up and suppress those sects and families that oppose the empress' rule, otherwise there will be riots after a while."
Lu Ning smiled and said: "Mr. Chen, how do you want to clean it?"
Chen Tianqi thought for a while and said: "Let's pick up the small stones and move them first, and then move the big stones after moving them. It's not to make it easier."
Lu Ning smiled and nodded.
June 20th.
Experience: 300.7 million points.
Lu Ning received news about the demon infestation in the East China Sea, mainly from the black dragon tribe, but it is not very serious at the moment.
One hundred thousand cavalry sent to Anzhou can still be suppressed.
After the morning meeting, Lu Ning ordered some tasks and began to interrogate Chen Hu and Zhang Chong about their recent recruitment of talents.
The Demon Suppressor recruits Demon Suppressors.
This matter has spread to all parts of Kyushu since June 12. Now there are only more than 100,000 people who have come to participate in the trial, but most of them have not passed the test.
"From now on, people in the Demon Suppressing Division are required to have a minimum cultivation level of the sixth level of Concentration Realm, and no cultivation below the sixth level is required." Lu Ning said with a frown.
With a sixth-level cultivation level, one's spiritual sense can detect the surroundings, which is extremely beneficial for tracking and handling cases.
In the past, the standard of the Demon Suppressing Division was the Qi Sea level of the seventh level of martial arts. As long as you passed the review of the Demon Suppressing Division and passed the trial, you could become a Demon Suppressing Master.
Now Lu Ning decided to raise the bar higher. After all, being a demon suppressor is a dangerous profession. The higher the level of cultivation, the lower the mortality rate.
He also considered the lives of every brother in the Demon Suppression Division. After all, it costs money to train a Demon Suppressor.
"Sir, wouldn't this make it more difficult to recruit?" Chen Hu looked troubled.
After all, to be a demon slayer, you need to have a clean family background and be a martial arts genius.
Although there are over 100 million martial arts practitioners in the world, most of them are below the seventh level, and there are still only a few who are above the seventh level.
Level six or above is even less.
After that, every time you advance to a higher realm, the number of people will definitely decrease many times.
Otherwise, the world is full of strong martial artists.
"Forget it. According to my standards, it doesn't matter if it takes half a year. As for the preparation of demon-suppressing people, we should keep the number at two thousand."
Lu Ning looked at Chen Hu and said.
"My lord, let's change the standards now."
Chen Hu and Chen Hu nodded and left.
Five days passed in the blink of an eye.
June 25th.
Experience: 373.7 million points.
In the past five days, the Demon Suppression Division has recruited a total of 9,000 qualified Demon Suppressors, with a shortfall of 20,000.
Chen Hu and Zhang Chong said it was getting harder and harder to recruit people.
Lu Ning did not lower the standard and allowed the two of them to continue recruiting.
Then he found Lin Jian and asked Lin Jian to tell his subordinates Gu Wushuang, Pei Tianbei and others to follow him to Qiu Shan Academy two days later.
In the evening, I finished sorting out the information on the various sects in the world.
Lu Ning stood up and walked out of the Hall of Justice.
Looking at the setting sun, I suddenly thought of Mo Luo. During the turmoil in Tianlao, he had promised Mo Luo to visit her after a while.
Later, the rebellion of King Yongshan was put down, and troops were mobilized from Kyushu to rectify the Demon Suppression Division, but they were all forgotten.
It's a little empty now.
Seeing that there was nothing wrong with the Demon Suppressor, Lu Ning took down his duties.
When passing by the Demon Suppression Hall, he stared at the hall for a moment before slowly leaving.
Before going to Zhuxian City to quell the chaos, Qianhu Lu Fei, the demon-suppressing person, said that someone broke into the Demon-Suppressing Division and seemed to want to enter the Demon-Suppressing Hall.
Lu Ning suspected that it was probably the remnants of the Tianyue Sect who wanted to rescue Luo Jiantian.
After all, Luo Jiantian is the strongest leader in the history of Tianyue Sect. The remnants of Tianyue Sect want to rescue him, so it is normal for him to revive Tianyue Sect.
Lu Ning was thinking about going to see Senior Sword Master when he had time and asking about the Tianyue Sect.
Xianlefang.
Lu Ning appeared directly outside Luoyue Xiaozhu. After all, with his current status, appearing in the front building would definitely cause a huge sensation.
Tomorrow it will be spread in the streets and alleys that Marquis Shenwu went to Xianlefang to listen to music, and the impact was not good.
"Girl, Marquis Shenwu is here!"
When Mo Luo's personal maid saw Lu Ning, she shouted towards the attic with joy on her face.
A moment later, Mo Luo appeared in front of Lu Ning wearing a light blue dress, "I have met the young master!"
Lu Ning nodded with a smile and walked towards the elegant building.
Mo Luo began to order her personal maids to prepare food and wine, and at the same time, she did not want the madam to send anyone to bother her.
In the elegant building.
Lu Ning sat on the mat, lying down, looking at Mo Luo who came over to squeeze his shoulders, "The great elder of Tianyue Sect didn't scare you last time, did he?"
"Sir, when I think about it now, I still have heart palpitations." Mo Luo said while squeezing his shoulders.
Lu Ning said: "It is quite dangerous. Fortunately, the great elder of the Yue Sect was a fool that day. Otherwise, you would be in danger if you left the city."
In Lu Ning's opinion, Jing Tianjing coerced Mo Luo to escape from the Imperial City of Jingzhou. If he didn't want him to follow him, Jing Tianjing would definitely beat Mo Luo half to death with one palm.
When the time comes, Lu Ning will definitely choose to save people first, and Jing Tianjing will have a chance to escape.
It's just that Jing Tianjing never thought that Lu Ning would kill a third-level cultivation person as easily as crushing an ant, and ended Jing Tianjing's life with one sword.
"Yes, fortunately the young master arrived in time." Mo Luo smiled and nodded.
Lu Ning grabbed Mo Luo's jade hand, pulled her into his arms, and stared at her carefully.
In terms of beauty, Mo Luo really has no choice. Although she is a little inferior to the empress, she is still the best in the world.
Sometimes it was easy for him to see Mo Luo, and sometimes he felt a little bit incomprehensible.
Night falls.
Accompanied by Mo Luo, Lu Ning drank some wine until she was tipsy, then began to take a bath and rest.
After tossing and turning until midnight, Lu Ning looked at Mo Luo and asked, "Now, can you tell me what's so special about your soul?"
The moonlight outside the window fell on Mo Luo's face.
I could see the sweet sweat on her forehead, biting her sexy lips, her long eyelashes flashing and saying: "Young Master, I said before, if the Young Master takes me away from Xianlefang, I will become your concubine.
.”
"I will definitely talk to you in detail about my special soul."
Lu Ning's eyebrows sank, and he leaned forward and said, "I will know tonight, tell me!"
