Mortal counterattack

Chapter 196 The Calm Before the Storm

The man ran away desperately, and the flying sword behind him kept chasing him, determined to kill him. "I am Hei Xuan, the right-hand man of the Zhentian Demon King. If you kill me today, the Demon King will not let you go."

After these words came out, the speed of the flying sword slowed down significantly. Hei Xuan thought Zhou Chen wanted to let him go, and he was immediately happy. "It seems that this guy is still timid. Humph, I will bring people to kill you after I go back."

As soon as the voice fell, a void crack appeared in front of him. Thinking that the Zhentian Demon King had come, Hei Xuan quickly stopped and knelt in the air, "Hei Xuan welcomes the Demon King."

Without waiting for the Zhentian Demon King's answer, he waited for a huge ice sword. Feeling a chill, Hei Xuan also felt that the person who came was not his master, but someone else.

Seeing this, Hei Xuan's body suddenly swelled and turned into his original body at the same time. Only a black cat with three tails stood in the void.

The black cat's huge tail swung and smashed the giant sword of Swift Wind directly. At the same time, Zhou Chen's figure walked out of it.

Hei Xuan was shocked, "How could you, how could you?"

"You can see my secret, you can open your eyes." Hei Xuan wanted to beg for mercy, but Zhou Chen was not going to give him another chance to speak. Zhou Chen pinched the sword seal with his hands, and a large number of flying swords appeared behind him. As Zhou Chen extended his two fingers, the flying swords behind him immediately attacked Hei Xuan.

It seemed that it was just a flying sword condensed by true energy, but the attack power could directly pierce his defense. In just ten seconds, Hei Xuan's body had been pierced into a hornet's nest by the flying sword, and a big hole was also pierced by the flying sword at the center of his eyebrows. This was also his fatal key sword.

Not long after the demon pattern and his body were collected, the rain in the sky stopped, and the dark clouds dispersed and the moonlight fell down.

In the depths of Wuhua Mountain, Zhentian Demon King, who was healing with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes, "The waste actually failed."

In Luyuan County, the constables who fainted on the street did not wake up until the next morning. After waking up, they looked around blankly. Because they had been lying on the ground all night, their bodies were already wet and cold. Fortunately, it was still early and there were no pedestrians on the street. Otherwise, if they were seen like this, they would be embarrassed.

On the other hand, Zhou Chen and his men returned to the yamen before dawn. The monsters only appeared at night and would not come out during the day, so they did not need to go out for patrol during the day. They just had to stay in the county yamen to rest.

At this time, they were sitting in the canteen eating hot buns. The yamen runners in the canteen were also puzzled. The brothers who usually went out for patrol at this time would have returned long ago, but today, except for a few adults from the Demon Suppression Division, they did not see anyone.

They did not dare to ask the masters of the Demon Suppression Division, as they could not afford to offend them. It was not until more than ten minutes later that they saw scattered people coming back. They were still talking sweetly, but when they saw Zhou Chen and his friends eating inside, they immediately shut up.

Seeing the people coming back, Zhou Chen and his friends smiled at each other and then got up and returned to the small courtyard prepared for them by the county magistrate.

After returning, Leng Ningshuang and the other two began to rest, while Leng Yiyao meditated and practiced, and Zhou Chen opened his own panel to check his gains from last night.

Cat pattern on the right leg, fifth-grade mythical power +70 magical power sunset, no copy martial arts for the time being.

He was lucky to have another mythical quality demon pattern. The moment he wore it, the information about the magical power also appeared in his mind. Sunset is a sword technique magical power. When it is used, a void magic sword can be summoned from the void to attack the enemy, which is very powerful.

Zhou Chen did not hesitate and immediately strengthened this demon pattern to eleven. In an instant, his strengthening points were reduced a lot, but his strength was improved a lot.

In an instant, Zhou Chen's strength increased again. Although he was only at the fifth level, he could fight against a fourth-level warrior now. As for the Zhentian Demon King, forget it. He didn't think he could be arrogant in front of him now. He estimated that he would be killed in seconds.

On the other hand, Leng Yiyao's strength increased rapidly during this period of practice, while Leng Ningshuang and the others made slow progress. Even though they had obtained Xuan-level martial arts, they had not yet entered the middle third level, so they could not achieve any results for the time being.

After the death of the cat demon, Luyuan County was stable for a while, and no people disappeared during this period.

The people also began to relax their vigilance, and vendors began to set up stalls on the streets at night. Although the county magistrate was a little angry about this, he also ordered that stalls should not be set up at night, but perhaps because of the pressure of life, some vendors still ventured out to set up stalls. At the beginning, the county government would come out to arrest illegal vendors, but in the end, due to many considerations, it acquiesced to this matter.

After all, it can't go on like this. The people at the bottom have to live, but the night patrols must continue, and there is no intention to reduce them. During this period, Zhou Chen and his team also insisted on patrolling.

Their responsibility is to kill monsters, and other things are not within their scope of responsibility. During this period, their patrols are also much easier, without the previous tension.

This kind of day lasted for more than a month. After a month, not only here, but also in other places around, there were no more monster attacks. So the Demon Suppression Division summoned all the scattered demon suppressors and demon guards back.

The Demon Suppression Division is not a fool. It is impossible for the Sky-shaking Demon King to leave without getting what he wants. Now that he is at peace, it means that his injuries have almost healed. It is estimated that he will make a comeback soon.

After returning to the Demon Suppression Division, the Demon Suppression Guards were lucky enough to practice hard. Not only that, the Demon Suppression Division also improved their treatment and resources to help them break through as soon as possible.

The Demon Suppression Envoy received a new task, which was to sneak into the depths of Wuhua Mountain and be led by several hall masters to find out the situation of the Sky-shaking Demon King. Zhen Nantian's injuries were also almost healed and he would be able to recover in a dozen days.

Zhou Chen, who originally thought he could practice with peace of mind, also received the same task. He followed Xuanwu and Zhuque to go deep into Wuhua Mountain, while Qinglong stayed in Wu'an County to prevent accidents.

Before leaving, each of them got a treasure. It was just a few pieces of talisman paper. However, these talismans were not ordinary talismans. They were powerful five-thunder talismans. Sixth-grade monsters could be killed with one move by this talisman. Five-grade monsters could also be repelled with the power of the five-thunder talisman. As for injury, it was basically impossible.

Another one was a burial talisman. After using it, it could be teleported to a place ten miles away at will. It was a life-saving talisman. The only weakness was that the teleportation place was random and could not be fixed.

Although Zhou Chen went, Leng Yiyao did not follow him at his request. Leng Yiyao and Leng Ningshuang stayed in the Demon Suppression Division.

As soon as they entered the mountain, they dispersed. After all, Wuhua Mountain was too big. If they were together, the target would be too big and it would be inconvenient to find.

The jade pendants in their hands have another function. If there is no time to send a message in times of danger, they can crush them with bare hands. In this way, Xuanwu and Zhuque will immediately receive a danger signal and get his specific location. In this way, even if he dies, he can pass the final message to the Demon Suppression Division.
