Daily life of slaying demons in the government

Chapter 93 The Great Demon Arrives
Mount Paektu.

It is more like a mountain range than a mountain. There are dozens of mountains of different sizes here, all called Baekdusan.

The mountains are full of caves and densely wooded areas, with clear springs flowing through them, so they are most suitable for Tibetans to live here.

People outside say that there is a stronghold on Mount Paektu and there are many bandits.

In fact, this statement is not accurate.

There is a mountain village, but it cannot be seen from the outside. Instead, it is hidden in the hinterland of these overlapping mountains, and is hidden in caves. People who are not familiar with the area cannot find the entrance at all, and if they rashly break in, they may be trapped inside and unable to get out.

Moreover, there are not only many thieves and bandits here, but also many evil spirits.

How do thieves and bandits usually come here?

People who practice martial arts tend to have more or less bad tempers. When they argue with others, they like to use fists, feet, and knives. If they get into trouble and don't want to pay with their lives, they can only flee to the mountains and become bandits.

Some of them were refugees who turned into thieves.

The origins of demons and evil spirits are much more complicated.

When it was born, it was gifted with intelligence, and if it survived, it would be a demon, different from ordinary beasts.

If the demons continue to reproduce, won’t their numbers increase?

Even though the Immortal Sect would have a large-scale demon-eliminating operation every few decades, usually led by the Immortal Alliance, they had never exterminated the demons and evil spirits. It was not because they didn't want to, but because they couldn't do it.

Therefore, the number of demons and evil spirits always fluctuates.

Like humans, demons are divided into different levels. Most demons are what humans call "bugs". Although they have some special means and are ferocious, they can only harm ordinary people. They are not impossible to resist for warriors.

If demons want to avoid being "bugs", their talent also depends on it.

Those with enough talent can become disciples of a great demon, or even live in the demon king’s mountain, also following the path to immortality.

And the "bugs" need to huddle together for warmth.

But demons are naturally solitary and suspicious, and they can't gather together without mutual control. So many demons find other ways, not building their own forces, but relying on other forces.

For example, thieves and bandits, who are also regarded as "evil spirits", are the choice that the evil "bugs" often collude with.

This is how the ingredients of Mount Paektu came about.

On this day, a black wind came from the horizon, like a dust storm, covering an area of ​​more than ten feet in radius, and passing at a very fast speed at low altitude. In a moment, a strong aura swept across, and no matter how deep the cave in the mountain was, it could not stop the aura from peeking.

The bandits in Mount Paektu were unaware of it, but the evil spirits in the mountain were frightened and jumped up. They rushed out of the cave in panic and approached timidly following the scent.

The source of this breath was three black birds of prey resting on a tree branch.

The demons came over one by one, but dared not get too close. They bowed down from a distance of several feet, not daring to make a sound, and did not dare to run away.

After half an incense stick of time had passed, when all the evil spirits in the White Head Mountain had come over, and even quite a few bandit leaders had shown up and were watching from afar, the largest bird of prey on the tree finally spoke.

"I am the Black Mountain Demon, Feng Xiao. Who among you knows the most about Hei Mu's death?"

The demons crawling on the ground started to talk in a buzzing voice, and soon three black monkeys stood up trembling.

"The three little demons know the whole story! Baitoushan Village Master Liu Zhi also knows the whole story!"

"Go ahead."

The three black monkeys, like Hei Mu, were all black-haired monkeys, and were also considered a "group" of evil spirits on Mount Paektu. Hei Mu was the leader, and they had always been the group of evil spirits that colluded most closely with the bandits on Mount Paektu. After Hei Mu's death, the monkey group had been fighting fiercely, and now seeing the Black Wind Owl coming over from the tree, they had guessed some of the reasons.

After the three black monkeys finished speaking, several leaders emerged from the bandits outside, among them was Liu Zhi, the leader of the Baitou Mountain Stronghold mentioned by the black monkeys.

"Mr. Feng Xiao, there have been changes in Sandao City. We may need to take a long-term view on Heishan's death."

"What has happened? Has any immortal sect settled in Sandai City?" Feng Xiao on the tree was very eccentric. In his eyes, except for the immortal sect forces, all others were scum and not worth a laugh.

These words choked Liu Zhi, the leader of the bandits in Mount Paektu, so much that he was speechless. After a while, he explained that the government offices in Sandai City were in the process of purging the green forest forces in the entire city, and now was a time of panic, so it was not the right time to start a war.

It's not just the wrong time!

Just as Sandao City dealt with the Song family, a big monster went to Sandao City to kill officials. It is foreseeable that this will inevitably bring about the wrath of the Hongwu Dynasty, and the Immortal Gate will not sit idly by.

What would happen in Black Mountain? Liu Zhi didn't know. But he was sure that none of his brothers in the mountain would be able to escape and would die.

"It's not convenient to force your way into the city, but it's no problem outside the city. The Black Mountain Demon King has issued an order to take back Yang Qian's soul before he can report back. Village Chief Liu, are you willing to help me?"

"This..." Liu Zhi felt embarrassed when he heard this.

"It looks like Village Leader Liu is in trouble." As soon as Feng Xiao finished speaking, two of his kind beside him immediately let out a sharp scream, and at the same time, their figures flashed and rushed towards Liu Zhi like a stream of black light!

Liu Zhi was horrified and was about to beg for mercy, but the words were still in his throat when he felt a black screen in front of his eyes. The last image in his sight was a sharp claw grabbing towards his face with the force of thunder.

The huge bird claw was as fast as lightning. Even though Liu Zhi was one of the best masters in Mount Paektu, he couldn't even dodge it. He didn't even have time to react before his head was grabbed firmly.

Then plop!
Liu Zhi’s head was crushed like a persimmon!

"Everyone from Mount Paektu, who can help us with this?" Feng Xiao's voice sounded again, just as calm as before. But now it silenced all the bandits and demons in the field.

"No one can help? Then what's the point of keeping you? Kill them all."

"Wait a minute! Master Feng Xiao, calm down! I can help! I can help you lead Yang Qian out of the city!"

Seeing that the two black birds hanging in the air were about to start killing, a fat man among the bandits begged for mercy loudly, saving his own life and the lives of the other bandits.

At this time, the bandits finally realized that although they were all evil spirits, the evil spirits they usually encountered were just "bugs" among the evil spirits, which were completely different from the evil spirits in Black Mountain.

The latter didn't take them seriously at all, and just killed them like ants.

If you don't want to die, make yourself useful.

"Tell me."

"Sir, the garrison commander of Sandao City is temporarily vacant, so the garrison soldiers cannot be moved. If we frequently rob people, the Sandao City government office can only send people to protect us. And Yang Qian is now the best master in Sandao City, so he will definitely serve as the vanguard."

It's not a difficult thing to begin with. Just use your brain. The fat thief's words made Feng Xiao nod his head in satisfaction.

"You better hurry up, I can't stay in Mount Paektu for too long."

"Don't worry, sir! We will do our best!"

The Black Wind Owl really cannot stay here for too long. The demonic aura on it will be detected by the immortal gate's patrolling eyes, and then the nearest immortal gate will definitely come to investigate.

It would be best if I could finish my errand before then.

If it can't, then it can only stay still and let the evil spirits below do the work. This is also the reason why Black Wind Owl brought two disciples with him to ensure that nothing could go wrong.
