Who told you to slay demons like this?

County Magistrate Ji came forward respectfully, and invited Captain He and his party into the mansion, then went to the front hall to entertain everyone.

County Magistrate Ji carefully served tea, "Thank you for your hard work. Although it is autumn now, it is still very hot at noon. Have a cup of tea to moisten your throat."

Captain He took the tea, glanced at it, and then put it aside. "No need."

When Qin Xi and others saw Captain He's move, they also became cautious and did not take the tea handed to them by the maid.

When Magistrate Ji saw this scene, he was extremely flustered, as if he was afraid that Captain He was still remembering the disrespect shown by the runner earlier.

Captain He had a calm expression, but the fierceness he exuded while fighting demons on the front battlefield naturally frightened County Magistrate Ji.

Qin Xi and others kept Captain He's orders in mind, said nothing, and watched coldly.

The front hall fell into deathly silence.

County Magistrate Ji became even more frightened and could only stand aside with his head down, not daring to move.

Perhaps because he had waited for a long time, Magistrate Ji could no longer sit still, so he asked cautiously, "Do you have any instructions for coming to Goumang County?"

"I heard that there was an evil spirit causing trouble in Goumang County. As the magistrate of a city, why didn't you report it?"

A trace of bewilderment flashed across County Magistrate Ji's originally frightened face.

"Sir, there are no demons in Goumang County."

Captain He raised his eyebrows slightly, "Hmm?"

"Your Excellency, please be wise. Since the new city lord took office, the demons have fled and the people have lived and worked in peace."

"Although Goumang County is a small border county, there were a few dog demons staying here before, but the city sent experts not long ago and wiped out all the dog demons."

"Now, there are no demons..."

Qin Xi looked at the uneasy County Magistrate Ji. Judging from his performance, it seemed that he was not lying.

But she always had a bad feeling in her heart.

Among the dozens of demon slayers sent by Captain He to patrol, only one escaped back to Rongnan City and risked his life to report the news, while the whereabouts of the rest of the demon slayers were unknown, and their lives or deaths were uncertain.

If there is really no demon threat in Goumang County, then where have all those demon slayers gone?

"is it?"

"Perhaps the demon slayer passed on the wrong information."

Captain He spoke a few words lightly, which made the originally nervous County Magistrate Ji relax immediately.

Captain He stood up and said, "Since it's a misunderstanding, we will return to the city first."

Everyone stood up and followed Captain He.

Upon seeing this, County Magistrate Ji immediately caught up with him in small steps, "Sir, you have come all the way to Goumang County. How about taking a rest before rushing back to Rongnan City?"

"You sirs usually kill evil spirits and protect the peace of the people. I guess it must be very hard for you on weekdays, right?"

"I will host a banquet tonight to welcome you all?"

Captain He treated him coldly, which made Magistrate Ji feel uneasy.

Suddenly, the sword was unsheathed, and the tip of the sword pointed directly at Magistrate Ji's throat.

Qin Xi and others knew that Captain He would not speak without a purpose, so they looked serious.

Magistrate Ji was not as panicked as expected, but rather calm, "Did you figure it out?"

County Magistrate Ji laughed crazily a few times, his body began to twist violently, and the huge human skin mask fell to the ground.

What came into view was a big yellow-haired dog with a ferocious face and bared teeth, staring at Captain He viciously.

"Bah, you're wasting the tea I carefully prepared for you!"

Captain He pointed his sword at the big yellow-haired dog, "What on earth did you do?"

The big yellow-haired dog has a human body and a dog head. It is tall, about two meters long, and looks muscular, ferocious and brutal.

"What the hell, asking me what I did?"

"We were living well in Goumang County, but the Demon Slayer Division had to organize some demon slayer, leaving us homeless!"

"You still have the nerve to ask me what I want to do?"

Captain He snorted coldly, "With your strength, you can't hurt my men. Who destroyed the people in the city?"

"I'm actually very curious, how did you disguise yourself as a county magistrate under my nose without revealing any demonic aura?"

"Haha, guess." The dog demon grinned.

Captain He's eyes darkened. "If you tell the truth, I will spare your life."

The dog demon shook his head and said, "Captain He, what good will it do you to know so much?"

Then, the dog demon stretched out his hand and pointed at everyone one by one, "Anyway, you, you, you, you are all going to die."

"Do you have to be a clear-headed ghost even after you die?"

"I won't say anything."

Captain He was about to say something when he saw Qin Xi wielding a sword and using the graceful and sharp Heaven-Locking Sword Technique to cut off the dog demon's head with one stroke.

Before the dog demon could say anything, he saw a sharp sword slashing towards his throat, until his head fell to the ground.

[The remaining 2170 years of the dog demon in the Qi realm have all been transformed into demon essence]

Everyone was stunned by Qin Xi's sudden attack and looked surprised.

Qin Xi pulled the dog demon's palm and saw that there were several unknown objects shaped like thin needles in the dog demon's hairy palm.

"He's going to attack by surprise."

Captain He's heart trembled. He had not noticed it at all just now. But when he looked at the unknown object in the dog demon's hand, he could actually feel a palpitation in his heart.

If the dog demon had really used this vicious trick just now, I'm afraid it would have ended badly.

Suddenly, there was a sound of hurried footsteps.

"This place is weird, let's go first!"

Following Captain He's order, everyone was about to turn around and leave.

However, in an instant, many yamen runners and maids turned into piles of white bones and pounced towards Captain He and his men.

Their movements were strange, their joints were twisted, their eye sockets were red, and they even oozed a trace of blood.

Seeing this scene, everyone held up weapons and hacked at the threatening white bones.

The bones are not difficult to kill, even intelligent monsters are not as hard to kill. They are too weak to be easily defeated.

With just one swing of the sword, the bones were completely turned into ashes and completely annihilated.

What puzzled Qin Xi was that killing these white bones would not give him any longevity reward.

what's the situation?

Aren't they demons?

What was shocking was that countless white bones came one after another, swarming into the yamen and pouncing towards the people from the Demon-Slaying Bureau.

Everyone had a solemn look on their faces. Earlier, Ao Zhou had risked his life to rush to Rongnan City to report the news, claiming that all the people in Goumang County had turned into bones overnight.

Now, these densely packed white bones must be the innocent people who were tragically sacrificed by evil spirits.

Qin Xi frowned. After traveling through time, she witnessed with her own eyes how demons harmed innocent people. She thought she had seen too much and her heart was not moved at all.

But now, these bones, feeling no pain and without any consciousness, are all innocent people in the city who were sacrificed by the demon overnight.

There is an indescribable depression in my heart.

The situation is becoming more and more urgent. Although these white bones are weak, the demon slayers are quite powerful, and the weakest are at the Qi Entering Realm.

However, faced with the endless stream of bones attacking him, the demon slayer will always become exhausted.

White bones kept turning into dust and disappearing completely. At the same time, everyone began to lose strength.
