Longevity starts with eating monsters

Chapter 53: Pacificating Guanzhong Prefecture in Days!

After killing the Li girl, Lu Chen stood in mid-air, silently sensing the water vapor surrounding him, and slowly outlining a series of veins in his mind.

"What an exquisite formation."

Although this Sea-Covering Dragon King formation did not cause him any trouble, that was because he had now undergone the third transformation of a dragon and had initially acquired the ability to command the water elements of heaven and earth.

If he didn't have this ability, he would still be able to deal with this formation, but it would undoubtedly take more effort.

From this, it can be seen that this formation is by no means mediocre, and is a means that can temporarily counter the state of transformation.

"It's mine."

Lu Chen's mind moved, and the countless veins he sensed were gradually gathered together, and the long river across the sky that was transformed from water vapor also slowly rose.

After a while, the long river across the sky disappeared into the sky and lost its trace.

However, in Lu Chen's perception, it was always floating above his head. As long as he wanted, he could make this long river flow back from the sky at any time.

It feels like holding a balloon.

"interesting."

Lu Chen clenched his palms and continued to focus his mind on the formation of the Sea Dragon King. He wanted to erase the mark of the Viper Dragon and completely control this formation.

At the same time, the events in Qinghe County also spread.

As the new provincial governor of Guanzhong Prefecture, Lu Chen was far more eye-catching than he had imagined.

Leaving aside the demons for now, at least half of the martial arts sects in Guanzhong Prefecture have sent people to hide in the dark and observe, wanting to see Lu Chen's abilities and background.

Therefore, it didn't take long for the news of Lu Chen rushing into Qinghe County and killing the Qilong with one sword to spread among the messenger birds in the sky. Many martial arts sects in Guanzhong Prefecture were shocked when they heard about it. They obviously didn't expect that the new provincial governor would be so powerful.

Ah, Viper Dragon! A Dragon King in the Transcendent Realm, can you kill him just like that?
Even though this Dragon King is ranked fourth in the Qingsha River Dragon Palace and is considered the weakest one, how can an ordinary monster be compared with him as a natural dragon?

What’s more important is the attitude Lu Chen shows.

"You are so arrogant. You are courting death!"

"I just arrived at Guanzhong Prefecture and I'm already in surgery. This is not something that can be dismissed with an 80-20 split."

"This new censor has bad intentions."

At the same time, in the Guanzhong Prefecture Prison Department.

Lin Haoyuan, Wen Bai, and Pei Qinhu were sitting around a table at the moment. They all had pale faces, worried expressions, and indescribable dejection.

"Ruined."

Pei Qinhu was the first to lower his head and sighed, "That Lu guy won't turn back until he hits the wall. I'm afraid the Qingsha River Dragon Palace won't tolerate us this time."

"Isn't this your fault?"

Wen Bai couldn't help but complain: "Tell him who the people from Qingsha River Dragon Palace are? I said, you have nothing better to do than to tease people and make them lose face."

"I just feel unfair for my elder brother."

Pei Qinhu was furious when he heard this: "That guy parachuted in and made it impossible for me to get promoted. And if I can't become an inspector, I won't have the martial arts of the transformation realm, let alone a breakthrough. This is related to my future prospects. Who would have thought that the guy surnamed Lu was actually a reckless man?"

"never mind."

Lin Haoyuan shook his head: "I have sent a message to Guannan Prefecture by Golden Eagle. Lord Chai is in Guannan Prefecture. I hope he can come to support us in time."

"After all, he recommended Lu Chen as an exception."

"Before that, I will go to Wuyou Temple to see if I can help mediate."

Wuyou Temple is one of the three top sects in Guanzhong Prefecture. It has a heritage of the realm of transformation. Lin Haoyuan was a lay disciple of Wuyou Temple before he joined the Prison Department.

The reason why Lin Haoyuan was able to allow the Guanzhong Prefecture Prison Warden to survive was also because Wuyou Temple mediated and blocked the Demon King of Transformation.

"No matter what, we can't let Lu Chen stay here after this!"

Wen Bai said in a deep voice: "We can survive this kind of thing once, but not twice or three times. If he stays in Guanzhong Prefecture, it will only cause trouble for us!"

"Not bad!"

When Pei Qinhu mentioned this, he immediately became energetic: "Brother, if you say one word, at worst we can jointly send a letter to Jiangzhou General Office to impeach Lu!"

"Even if he was recommended by Lord Chai, he caused such a big mess and was impeached by us. Even if Lord Chai has a father who is a Sikou, it is impossible to suppress the discussion in the main office. After driving him away, it will be just right to let my eldest brother become the Censor. This is what everyone wants!"

"Second brother, don't talk nonsense."

Lin Haoyuan shook his head and said in a deep voice: "I have no ambition for the position of Censor. Besides, it is not so easy to break through the Transformation Realm. Don't try to harm me."

"But."

Just when Pei Qinhu was about to persuade them to come in, suddenly a monster catcher pushed open the door of the conference room and walked in quickly, looking extremely ecstatic.

"My Lord! Good news! Good news!"

"What are you yelling about?"

Pei Qinhu was interrupted and immediately glared at him angrily: "We are already in this situation, how can there be any good news? Was the man surnamed Lu killed?"

"No, no, his surname is Lu. No, it was Lord Lu who killed him! Killed him!"

"Kill who?"

"Kill the Viper Dragon!"

The monster hunter who reported the incident gasped for a long time before he said in a hurried voice: "The news reports that Lord Lu went to Qinghe County alone and killed the viper dragon with one sword! The dragon's corpse is still lying at the gate of Qinghe County. It is said that the dragon's blood has dyed the entire city gate red!" As soon as the words fell, the first reaction of the three people present was that it was fake news.

However, they soon reacted. Although the Guanzhong Prefecture Prison Department was in decline, it was not to the extent that the intelligence system was paralyzed.

In other words. Really?

Is the Viper Dragon really dead?

For a moment, the three of them looked at each other in bewilderment. After a long while, Lin Haoyuan came to his senses and stood up and said, "Let's go! We'll go to Qinghe County right away!"

Although reason told them that the news was true, they still found it hard to believe.

It was not until the three of them rushed all the way to Qinghe County and saw with their own eyes the dozens of feet long corpse of the snake dragon that they finally accepted the reality.

At this time, a large number of demon hunters from the Prison Wardens had gathered around Lu Chen and began to clean up the body of the Viper Dragon, cutting it into pieces and packaging it in batches.

The way they looked at Lu Chen changed from the initial indifference to a bit more fanaticism and admiration.

too long!
It has been a long time since the Guanzhong Prefecture Prison Warden has been so powerful!
Thinking back to the past, a dragon king in the state of transformation dared to act tyrannically in the county? It was simply a fantasy!
The four dragon kings of the Qingsha River Dragon Palace did not appear during this period. It was just that they did not dare to go ashore before and could only stay in the river and lurk!

Lin Haoyuan had a complicated look on his face when he saw this. He keenly noticed the change in the monster hunters' attitude towards Lu Chen.

This was something he had never been able to do.

Not daring to linger, Lin Haoyuan brought Wen Bai and Pei Qinhu to Lu Chen and bowed:
"I've met my lord."

"No gift."

Lu Chen waved his hand and said in a very easygoing manner: "The one in Qinghe County has been solved. Where is the next Dragon Lord? I'm new here and don't know the way very well."

".ah?"

Lin Haoyuan was stunned.

The next Dragon King? One is not enough?

“Sir.” Lin Haoyuan considered for a moment and said carefully, “Killing the Viper Dragon is actually enough to restore the prestige of the Prison Department. We can stop while we are ahead.”

"With you leading the way, I am confident that we can win over Wuyou Temple. When the two sides work together, we may be able to unite the martial arts forces in Guanzhong Prefecture and completely intimidate those demons, so that they dare not mess around again. I believe that after weighing the pros and cons, those demons will give you face."

". But if you take action at this time, it would be too much."

"If we really push those demons into a corner, they might unite to deal with us. If a war breaks out, we may not have a chance of winning."

"Yeah, I know what you mean."

Lu Chen scratched his itchy scalp and said solemnly: "So where is the next Dragon King?"

"Sir!" Lin Haoyuan said anxiously, "You have finally won the game. Now you should take it slow."

"you are wrong."

Lu Chen shook his head: "I remember you said that the four dragon kings of Qingsha River Dragon Palace are brothers."

"That's right, but they have long since separated and are not on good terms with each other."

“That’s a brother too.”

Lu Chen counted on his fingers and analyzed carefully: "Blood is thicker than water between brothers. If I kill one, how can the other dragon kings let it go?"

"Even if they really don't cause me any trouble, keeping them is always a hidden danger. I can't sleep well."

"So we have to cut the roots!"

"Slowly but surely? Absolutely not!"

Lu Chen also had a calculation in his mind, and he had calculated it very clearly.

According to Lin Haoyuan's plan, it is indeed possible to pacify Guanzhong Prefecture, but it will take several years to get started, and he doesn't have so much time to waste.

What's more, demons will fight each other.

In such a small Guanzhong Prefecture, countless demons die in the infighting every day, their cultivation is wasted and their deaths are meaningless.

Are they fighting?
They are wasting my energy!

Therefore, every day of delay is equivalent to the loss of hundreds or thousands of years of power!
The more Lu Chen thought about it, the more upset he felt. He immediately looked at Lin Haoyuan with sharp eyes and a tone that did not allow for any rebuttal: "There is no point in saying more. I have already made up my mind."

"Tell me the locations of the next few Dragon Lords."

".The third dragon king, Chilong, is entrenched in the Bi Bo Tan. The second dragon king, Jiaolong, should be at the source of the Qingsha River, in the Dragon Palace under the Locking Dragon Pass, guarding the big dragon king."

After the words fell, Lin Haoyuan gritted his teeth and said, "Sir, think twice before you act."

"You can go and deal with the Qingsha River Dragon Palace, but at least you should tell us what your plan is. What is your goal in taking such a risk?"

"Target?" Lu Chen smiled slightly when he heard that.

His goal was actually very simple, and it was determined the moment he arrived in Guanzhong Prefecture.

He doesn't have that much time to waste.

and so--

"Within thirty days, I will pacify Guanzhong Prefecture!"
