The Legend of the Demon Hunter

When Jiang Jin heard the woman's words, his attention was drawn to them. He could ignore the words of those in the crowd who were making trouble or venting their emotions, but the woman's words were clear and every word was directed at the Demon Hunter Association, so Jiang Jin had to take them seriously.

"I, Jiang, am just the president of a branch here. I was ordered by the headquarters to stay in the Lost Continent and have not returned to the north of the Wangtian Mountains for many years. I am not clear about the strategic layout of the Demon Hunter Association. But the Demon Hunter Association is definitely not an organization that will watch people in danger without helping. As for what some people say about the Demon Hunters colluding with the Demon Cult, I just take it as a joke." Jiang Jin said loudly.

"President Jiang, you claimed that the Demon Hunter Association would not stand by and watch people die, but how do you explain our current situation?" the woman asked.

Hearing the woman's words, Jiang Jin pondered for a moment, then said, "Suzaku Town was originally a camp built by our Suzaku branch, and it was never open to the public. However, there have been too many demon hunters coming from the north of Wangtian Mountain seeking help these days, so we made an exception and accepted many demon hunters with the intention of saving all living beings. This has also led to the fact that Suzaku Town is now overcrowded and far from saturated. If we let you in, not only will Suzaku Town not be able to protect you, but even those who entered earlier will not be able to survive."

"But President Jiang, you have also seen that the war behind us is intensifying, and in front of us is the Lost Continent full of dangers and monsters. We demon hunters are at the end of the road. If your place is unwilling to take us in, won't we be pushed into the abyss of death? It can't be that there is a first come first served rule for accumulating virtue and doing good deeds, and the lives of those who arrive first are precious, while the lives of those who arrive later are cheap?" The woman spoke eloquently and pressed on step by step.

Even though Jiang Jin was experienced, he was still unable to respond for a while because of the woman's question.

He thought for a moment, looked to the west, and said, "Everyone, there is a forest ten miles to the west, called Shang Lingding Forest. The forest is flat and not disturbed by monsters. If you trust me, why don't you go there and build a new residence? I can also arrange for the civil engineering demon hunters from the Demon Hunter Association to go there and help set up camp. What do you think?"

After hearing Jiang Jin's words, the crowd quieted down, and even the woman who had been arguing with Jiang Jin did not speak.

If Shang Lingdinglin is indeed safe and livable, then what Jiang Jin proposed is undoubtedly a win-win option. These people did not come here to cause trouble, their main purpose is to survive.

Seeing everyone's reaction, Jiang Jin showed a satisfied look on his face and said, "Since everyone has no objection, I will arrange for the association to lead everyone to Shang Lingdinglin. To show my kindness, I will also arrange for people to deliver food and supplies."

Next, led by the demon hunter of the Suzaku branch, the crowd slowly walked towards the west. Jiang Jin stood on the town wall, watched everyone leave, and gently stroked his beard.

After everyone had gone far away, Xiao Zhu, Gu Chuan, Lin Xuemiao and A Xi, who had transformed into a human form, walked towards the town.

Jiang Jin saw Xiao Zhu and the others. He felt that the leader Xiao Zhu had reached the middle stage of Soul Hunting. He did not want to offend someone of such strength easily, so he said politely, "My friend, the town is already overcrowded. You can go to Shang Lingding Forest in the west. Our Suzaku branch has prepared accommodation for you there."

Xiao Zhu smiled faintly at Jiang Jin, then took out a token from the gleaming amber bracelet and handed it to Jiang Jin. Jiang Jin took the token, looked at it from beginning to end, and then looked Xiao Zhu up and down.

His eyes became respectful, and he said, "It turns out that it is President Xiao from the Xuanwu branch who has come to visit. Please forgive my poor eyesight. President Xiao, please follow me in. I just happen to have something to talk to someone about."

Under the leadership of Jiang Jin, Xiao Zhu and his party entered Zhuque Town. Along the way, they saw many demon hunters who were like homeless people. They came here from thousands of miles from the north. They had no place to live, so they simply lived on the roadside.

In such a war-torn era, it is a blessing to have a shelter. As long as you live in Zhuque Town, your personal safety is temporarily guaranteed. As for other things, you can't take care of so much.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Zhu understood that what Jiang Jin said was true. Zhuque Town did take in many down-and-out demon hunters. Jiang Jin and others could be described as gentlemen who practiced what they preached.

The buildings in Zhuque Town looked strange, like huge tents supported by many pillars. Xiao Zhu looked at them with great curiosity.

Jiang Jin led Xiao Zhu and others to the largest tent in the center of Zhuque Town, which was a reception room. After Jiang Jin arranged Xiao Zhu and others to sit down one by one, Xiao Zhu took the lead in asking questions about the tent outside.

Jiang Jin replied, "Are you referring to the buildings here? This is a last resort, because the Lost Continent is full of magical beasts, and there are often [Beast Tide] disasters, so we can't settle in one place for a long time. The purpose of building buildings like this is mainly to make them easy to carry. Once we encounter a magical beast attack, we will all move away."

"President Jiang, what do you mean by the beast tide?" Gu Chuan asked in confusion after hearing Jiang Jin's words.

"I guess this is the first time for you to cross the Wangtian Mountains. The sources of beast tides vary. Sometimes it's due to seasonal changes, and sometimes it's due to infighting among monsters. In short, beast tides are one of the most terrifying phenomena on this continent. Once tens of thousands of monsters rush in one direction, any human and plant will be trampled to the ground." Jiang Jin said.

After hearing Jiang Jin's introduction, Xiao Zhu and others fell silent. This lost continent was even more dangerous than they had imagined.

"Senior Jiang, the main reason we came here this time is to inquire about a place. I wonder if you have ever heard of a place called the Eternal Forest?" Xiao Zhu directly asked about the purpose of their trip. Although they had been together for quite a while, Jiang Jin left a good impression on Xiao Zhu.

"The Eternal Forest?" Jiang Jin was shocked when he heard it, "Where do you want to go?"

Seeing Jiang Jin's reaction, Xiao Zhu was first surprised and then worried. He thought that Jiang Jin must know this place. He hurriedly asked, "Yes, if Senior Jiang knows this place, I hope you can give us some advice."

"President Xiao, it's not that I don't want to tell you, the Eternal Forest is a well-known existence in the Lost Continent, but no one has ever been there because it is impossible to reach there." Jiang Jin said with a wry smile.
