No one has ever seen this secret sword except his own father Zheng Zhichang!

Unexpectedly, Zhou Yan on the opposite side still had the energy left to comment while swinging his sword to block Zheng Keren's attack.

"Your Crazy Crow is so slow!"

what! ?

Zheng Keren's breath was choked.

And at this moment, Zhou Yan turned his wrist and cut off the sword that Zheng Keren was attacking.

"Watch this!" Zhou Yan shouted, instantly switching from defense to offense.

This is the Crazy Crow!

Phew! Phew! Phew!

Amid the violent buzzing sound of the air being torn apart continuously, a white net woven by the silver light of the sword seemed to appear in front of Zheng Keren's eyes.

He subconsciously raised his sword to block, but was cut on his outstretched wrist at the first moment, causing the protective gear on his right arm to be locked instantly.

Immediately afterwards, there came a violent storm!

Chop, cut, slash, sweep, stab, pick, wipe.

Da da da da da.

Two breaths later, Zhou Yan suddenly put away his sword.

He took a half step forward and stood in front of Zheng Keren, who was stabbed in various parts of his body and his movements were locked.

Then he stretched out his finger and touched Zheng Keren's chest armor.

"It's pathetic that people can't recognize themselves."

As he spoke, he pushed lightly with his fingers.

thump.

Zheng Keren fell to the ground stiffly.

Chapter 108 Demon Exorcist, the Dark Side of the World

Zhou Yan easily won the second round with a swift Crazy Crow.

When Zheng Keren fell down on the field, Zheng Zhichang, who was standing off the field, suddenly sat up straight, with his hands gripping the handles of the chair, leaving fingerprints.

This guy's sword speed, accuracy and power

Peak of the fierce level! ?

Where did Luo Xuan find this wild master?

Zheng Zhichang is very clear about his son's strength. During the exchange competition last year, he had already reached the edge of the fierce level. With his full training at all costs, this year the kid has already established a standard fierce level in terms of physique. Except that his technique is a little rough, the "spirit" which is the most difficult to improve has not made much progress.

However, in a "small competition" like the Lihuo Pavilion Exchange Tournament, which is designed to select the elites of the sword hall, the opponents are not too strong.

He wanted his son to "maintain the fourth place and fight for the second place", but now he was finally eliminated in the quarterfinals. This ranking may be very good for an ordinary student, but compared with the resources that the semifinalists or even the top two can get, it is much less.

"Zhou Yan. I will remember you." Zheng Zhichang stared at Zhou Yan in the field, his face becoming extremely ugly.

At the same time, on the court, Zheng Keren, who lost twice in a row without any resistance, was not a real fool. He knew that there was a huge gap between the two sides.

After the referee removed his protective gear, he turned and left the court with a gloomy face.

Obviously, there was no need to fight the third time.

The referee immediately and loudly announced Zhou Yan's victory.

In the first row of the audience, Luo Ke couldn't sit still and jumped up immediately after the referee's announcement: "Yeah! Brother Zhou Yan is in the top four, top four!"

Luo Xuan, who was standing next to her, thought her yelling was too embarrassing, so she immediately reached out and pushed her sister back to her seat: "Don't yell, the Pavilion Master is right next to us!"

Cong Shiyun beside him clapped his hands gently, then looked at Luo Xuan in surprise: "Luo Xuan, this Zhou Yan not only has a good affinity with the breathing method, but even the Secret Sword Crazy Crow's attack is so fast. Is he majoring in this move?"

Luo Xuan tried his best to keep a calm expression, but the corners of his mouth were slightly raised and he couldn't suppress it. "No, the first secret sword he learned was Rain Swallow Disturbance."

“Rainy Swifts in Disarray!” Cong Shiyun looked a little surprised. “You are quite traditional. This move is difficult to learn and use. Nowadays, few gym leaders teach this move at the beginning. Some may not teach this move until you have learned the Three Secret Swords of the Southern Ming Dynasty.”

Luo Xuan said softly, "Zhou Yan only knew how to use Rain Swallow Disturbance five days ago. He learned Poison Poison the day before he came to Yicheng. As for Crazy Crow and Chongming, he learned them two days ago."

Cong Shiyun immediately sat up straight, his eyebrows twitching: "After learning for two days, you can use the Crazy Crow to this extent!? Luo Xuan, you should know that you will not gain anything by fooling me."

"There's no need for me to lie, especially a lie that can be easily exposed." Luo Xuan shook his head calmly.

Cong Shiyun paused for a moment, unable to conceal the surprise on his face: "According to what you said, it is basically certain that Zhou Yan is as talented as Li Guanqi, or even as talented as you!"

Luo Xuan's lips curled up: "You can think so."

Cong Shiyun hesitated for a moment, then raised his head and stared at her seriously: "Luo Xuan, I have a suggestion and would like to hear your opinion."

"Master Cong, please speak."

"After the exchange meeting, I will immediately hold a Miao-level assessment for you. If you pass it successfully, you will resign from the position of the head of the sword hall in Tianzun City."

Luo Xuan frowned: "Master, what do you mean? That was passed down to me by my father."

"Don't be impatient." Cong Shiyun raised his hand and pressed it, signaling Luo Xuan not to be impatient.

Then, he smiled and said, "Back then, as the "No. 1 Genius", you chose to leave the Suzaku Palace headquarters and return to Tianzun City to inherit your father's sword school. Many seniors who had high hopes for you felt it was a pity. I was often criticized by those big guys for this. However, you should know that if you had been wasting time in a sword school in a small city without any resources, even if you were extremely talented, you would just be mediocre."

Luo Xuan's face was a little cold: "My father died unexpectedly, and my sister is all alone. How can I still practice at the headquarters with peace of mind? And I mainly want to know the cause of my father's death."

Cong Shiyun shook his head: "Look at you, you are anxious again."

He smiled and said, "This time, after you are promoted to the Miao level, you can resign from the position of Pavilion Master and come directly to my Lihuo Pavilion's 'Demon Extermination Department' to serve as a 'Demon Extermination Expert'. I will give you permission to check the missions your father participated in that year. How about that?"

Luo Xuan's expression changed: "Master Cong, you said before that I only need to reach the Miao level, and now you want me to serve as a demon-killing expert?"

Cong Shiyun looked helpless: "When did I say that reaching the Miao level is enough? I said that reaching the Miao level is a 'prerequisite', and this prerequisite is to meet the requirements for you to become a demon-slayer expert."

After that, he changed the subject: "Moreover, not to mention that after becoming a demon-killing expert, you no longer need to worry about maintaining the sword hall business and delay your own practice, and you will also get a lot of practice resources from the Lihuo Pavilion.

"Don't you want to retrieve your father's remains and let him return to his roots?"

"Remains!?" Luo Xuan looked excited, and Luo Ke beside her also looked anxious.

Luo Xuan couldn't help but lean forward: "Master Cong, what you told me back then was that my father had been torn to pieces and his body had never been found."

Cong Shiyun shook his head: "Luo Xuan, you are not an expert in exorcism yet, so I cannot tell you more. Anyway, there have been frequent abnormalities in various places recently. The higher-ups have announced that disasters are coming, and some of the previously sealed secret missions have been decided to be restarted, including the mission in which your father sacrificed himself. If you want to participate, you must be at least..."

Luo Xuan immediately interrupted Cong Shiyun and said, "Pavilion Master, there is no need to say more. I will follow your arrangements."

"Good!" Cong Shiyun seemed extremely happy, "Now I finally don't have to be scolded by those big guys anymore."

"But!" Luo Xuan looked at her sister beside her, "My sister, and Zhou Yan, what arrangements does the Pavilion Master plan to make?"

Hearing Luo Xuan's question, Cong Shiyun smiled faintly: "Of course we will go to Yicheng together. Your sister Jiuyue will go to Suzaku Xingdu to attend university. Yicheng and Xingdu are very close, which is convenient for you to take care of her at any time. As for Zhou Yan..."

He looked directly at Luo Xuan: "Each demon-killing expert has his own independent team in the Demon-killing Division. You have priority in selecting the team members. The requirements are that they belong to the Suzaku Palace and have reached the fierce level of strength."

"I understand." Luo Xuan nodded and quickly confirmed, "Zhou Yan is my first team member!"

"I knew it would be like this." Cong Shiyun clapped his hands and smiled, "Then it's a deal!"

"A word is settled!"

*

That night, when Zhou Yan returned to his room, Luo Xuan informed him of the results of his discussion with Cong Shiyun today.

"That's basically the situation." Sister Luo Xuan said, and then looked at Zhou Yan seriously, "Whether you are willing to come or not, I respect your decision."

"Well, I roughly understand." Zhou Yan touched his chin and asked a more practical question, "What are the benefits of the Demon Exorcist Department? Where can I find a place to live?"

Luo Xuan: “.”

Zhou Yan glanced at her: "You didn't ask?"

Luo Xuan turned her head away guiltily: "."

Luo Ke patted her white thigh beside her and said, "Sister, you are so confused!"

Luo Xuan's cheeks turned slightly red, and then she stared at Zhou Yan blankly: "I will ask the Pavilion Master about these tomorrow. Are you coming or not?"

"Come on. It's useless to stay in the Sword Hall or the Demon Extermination Bureau. It's all the same." Zhou Yan smiled gently.

Luo Xuan's frown relaxed: "Let me tell you in advance that the work of the Demon Exorcist Department is to deal with abnormal incidents that are rarely encountered in normal times, and often there are life-threatening situations. Are you sure you want to follow me?"

Zhou Yan sighed and looked at Luo Xuan seriously: "Xiao Xuan, I want to accompany you because there is danger."

When he said this, Zhou Yan was thinking silently: "This Demon Extermination Department should be the 'special department' of the Tianyuan Common Lord Empire, right?"

'Handling anomalies. Could these anomalies just happen to involve the 'chaos rift' event mentioned by the Order Mighty?'

"With the support of such a large organization, it should be much easier than searching blindly on my own."

"It's good. When I feel sleepy, someone will hand me a pillow."

Zhou Yan was thinking silently here.

But Luo Xuan, who was sitting opposite him, had a flickering look in his eyes after hearing his words.

"Are you afraid that I might be in danger so you decided to stay with me?"

The cold girl's mouth corners curled up unconsciously.

She looked at Zhou Yan with a slightly gentle look in her eyes: "Well, since we agree to come to Lihuo Pavilion to develop in the future, I will also briefly tell you what the so-called 'Demon Extermination Department' does."

Zhou Yan became interested and sat up straight.

Luo Xuan pondered for a while, as if organizing his thoughts.

Then, she slowly said: "From ancient times to the present, this world is not as ordinary as it appears on the surface."

"In the deep mountains and old forests, in deserted places, in some hidden areas, phenomena that shouldn't exist in this world occasionally occur."

Luo Xuan's expression was solemn.

Luo Ke next to him shrank his neck and secretly moved his butt closer to Zhou Yan.

Luo Xuan glanced at Luo Ke with an inexplicable look on her face: "Luo Ke, you didn't follow my path of martial arts, so before, I didn't tell you some things because I was afraid you would worry."

She said in a deep voice: "Our father is a master of the Miao level who works for Suzaku Palace. In addition to his official position as the master of the sword hall, he occasionally needs to accept the call from above to help solve unusual incidents. Some of these incidents are man-made, but many of them are not man-made disasters."

"Sister, you're not going to tell me a ghost story, are you? Can you be normal? I'm scared." Luo Ke took Zhou Yan's arm.

Luo Xuan glanced at Luo Ke holding Zhou Yan's arm, her eyes slightly cold.

However, she did not say much, but continued her topic: "In areas where there are few people or with some special elements, strange phenomena similar to space cracks will appear out of thin air. In ancient times, they were called 'devil's caves', and in modern times they are called 'rifts'."

"If it's not dealt with, it will pour out from inside--"

Luo Xuan's voice was cold.

"An inhuman creature that brings disaster to the world."

Chapter 109 Is this also a disaster world? And the communication function

"Inhuman creatures that bring disaster to the world"

Zhou Yan couldn't help but repeat the words the girl said, but what he was thinking in his heart was that the "devil's cave" or "rift" that Luo Xuan mentioned was most likely the "chaos rift" mentioned by the Order Power.

"That's right." Luo Xuan nodded, "Things of fantasy, things of legend, and even things whose origins are unimaginable."

"Ferocious beasts, poisonous creatures, goblins, slimes, giant insects, machines, and even demons, monsters and..." She glanced at her sister who had begun to shrink her neck.

The voice suddenly became louder: "Ghost!"

"Ah!" Luo Ke screamed when she heard the last word Luo Xuan said.

She was so scared that she shrank into Zhou Yan's arms.

Seeing this scene, veins on Luo Xuan's forehead immediately popped up.
