Everyone felt that something was wrong, but they didn't expect the old man to actually retreat.

If you kill someone, don't you want to frame them?

Don’t you still want Zhao Yuanzhou’s demon pill?

Aren’t you going to destroy the Demon Hunting Bureau?

After setting up such a trap, shouldn't the blame be put on him?

"Jiujiu, come quickly, Baijiu is about to wake up, something is wrong."

At this time, Bai Jiu's body became restless, with blue veins bulging on his neck and forehead, and a black line on his neck that continued to spread upwards at an extremely fast speed.

In just a few breaths, it spread to half of his face, looking extremely weird. In an instant, Bai Jiu opened his eyes, and his scarlet eyes had no focus.

But he locked onto Zhao Yuanzhou's breath firmly, stretched out his hand, and instantly pierced his chest, but it was only the fur that was injured, bringing out a little blood, and it healed instantly.

Zhao Yuanzhou reached out and touched the torn clothes. He felt numb for a moment and cursed, "It's the ugly man's fault!"

"Certainly--"

Bai Jiu was immediately nailed to the spot, and his crazy look made him look extremely terrifying.

The villagers were also startled by this sudden scene and began pointing at the door.

Zhao Yuanzhou waved his hand and used his magical power to close the door. In just a moment, a red light flashed in the room, and a "seal" appeared on the ground and walls.

Only then did they notice that there was a bell right above their heads, and as the door closed, the bell rang automatically without wind.

Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding

In an instant, countless red chains sprang out from the ground and attacked several people, as if they were determined to drag everyone in the formation into hell.

"This is their backup plan! All the previous methods, killing, delaying time, and Bai Jiu losing control, were all prepared for this formation."

Zhao Yuanzhou sat on the edge of the bed without moving. His demonic power burst out, and the chain in front of him broke. He also protected Wen Xiao behind him.

"This is the Demon-Slaying Formation."

Wen Xiao is a walking encyclopedia, and the demon-slaying formation is clearly aimed at Zhao Yuanzhou.

Zhao Yuanzhou shrugged helplessly and pointed at Jiuning.

"You don't need to look at me. Although the formation can't do anything to me, I don't know how to break it. Go find her."

Several people looked at Jiu Ning together again. Jiu Ning also shrugged his shoulders and broke the chains in front of him while listening to what they said.

"I can't break the formation, but I can still make a physical breakthrough."

After saying this, he also looked down on Zhao Yuanzhou: "You are really useless. You have lived for tens of thousands of years, but you are not intimidating at all. Anyone dares to try to control you. You are such a failure in life."

While people were chatting lively in the house, people outside the door were also busy. At the same time, eight masked men stood outside, standing in various directions, ready to use themselves as the center of the formation to strengthen the power of the demon-slaying formation.

"The military advisor said that we must capture Zhao Yuanzhou's demon pill this time. There will be a generous reward after the task is completed. But if we fail, that's just as well. The demonization pill is missing an ingredient."

"Don't worry, sir. We will not let the military advisor down!"

Several people stood in different positions, drawing out their own demonic powers and integrating them into the formation. The formation hummed and set off ripples.

The people in the room clearly felt the increase in chains, and even Zhao Yuanzhou suffered several losses.

"Miss Jiujiu, please hurry up! Otherwise we will die here."

The incident was directed at Zhao Yuanzhou, and he felt guilty, so he took the initiative to bear most of the attacks, protecting Bai Jiu who was stationary, Wen Xiao, and Pei Sijing.

Jiuning felt much more relaxed, but she was still waiting, waiting to see if the person behind the scenes would appear at this important moment.

But she was disappointed. What came were still just some small shrimps. After she made a move, the big fish probably dared not show up.

When Zhuo Yichen saw Jiu Ning walk to the door, he handed the Yunguang Sword to her, and he followed behind her without lag.

Holding the sword in his hand and filling it with spiritual power, the Yunguang Sword suddenly emitted a bright blue light. Even in broad daylight, the light was dazzling. Even the villagers outside the house were frightened and took several steps back, just making room for the door.

Jiu Ning took advantage of the situation and swung his sword, the door shattered and dust floated in the air.

"Why don't you guys run away quickly? You dare to join in such a lively event. You are really not afraid of death."

Jiu Ning looked at these ignorant people with hatred. They were easily incited by others and had no thinking or judgment of their own.

Then he raised his sword and walked out step by step. In an instant, the tip of the sword was pointing at the mayor with an extremely evil expression.

"I'm afraid this mayor is fake?"

He was not afraid at all when being watched by the villagers. In his eyes, all these people were going to die.

"So what? That old guy died a few years ago. Otherwise, people have been missing in this town all the time, and we haven't seen any officials come to investigate!"

"The people in the cave are from this town? You are too cruel."

Jiu Ning really couldn't bear it anymore. She had been enduring it for a long time. Since she couldn't get any results from asking, she had no choice but to kill them all.

"You ignorant child, you really can't realize the difference in strength. With all your methods, you dare to think so."

Jiu Ning supported herself on the ground with one hand, and with her as the center, her spiritual power extended to form a huge barrier. It was opaque, and no one from outside could see what was happening inside.

First, the villagers fell down one by one, and then a golden light appeared in the sky, like a meteor, hitting everyone in the barrier, including the villagers.

Without power or speed, they could not threaten anyone. The demonized people in Chongwu Camp even put smiles on their faces and mocked them.

"Haha - setting off fireworks? You don't think that if you knock the villagers unconscious, they can escape harm, right? Haha..."

When the golden light fell on their bodies, the demonized people were too lazy to dodge, but the next moment, a shrill scream was heard.

"what--"

The flames instantly engulfed the man, and before he could even finish his scream, his entire body was burned to ashes and turned into dust.

The golden light also fell on the people behind Jiu Ning. Just when they were afraid of the power brought by the golden light and wanted to avoid it, a voice of explanation came.

"Don't hide, these are all the power of merit, which will benefit you."

Jiuning smiled mischievously.

"The premise is that you haven't committed any evil."

Speaking of the word "evil fruit", he deliberately cast his eyes on the only person he was not familiar with, Zhao Yuanzhou. As a great demon, he was from the Great Wilderness where strength was respected and territory was the priority.

If you say that no one was killed, I'm afraid no one would believe it. Sure enough, after hearing Jiu Ning's words, except for Bai Jiu who was fixed in the room by a one-word spell, the rest of them stood obediently and allowed themselves to be baptized by the merit.

"what--"

The first person to scream was one of the villagers. He was as evil as those demonized people. When he came into contact with the golden light, he burned and turned into ashes in an instant.

"It seems like there are fish that have slipped through the net. Heaven's net is truly vast and unbearable. Let's see who God has spared!"

Among the few people, only Zhao Yuanzhou showed a look of hesitation on his face. The death of Chongwuying was too shocking to the visual impact. He thought that those people had done many evil things, but he didn't expect that they didn't even have the power to resist at all.

Jiuning had seen enough of the changing expressions on his face and had enough of the drama before he spoke.

"Remove the defenses around you. The golden light of merit can help you better control your hostility and even help you better manipulate it."

"You woman—"

After looking at him for a long time, pretending that he didn't notice, Zhao Yuanzhou still gave up resistance and let the golden light fall on his body. As expected, he felt the burning from his soul, and a crackling sound was heard.

"Um--"

The pain instantly made his veins pop, but years of forbearance made him not want to scream out. He clenched his teeth and swallowed the sound back into his stomach.

The eyes were filled with a layer of black mist, which then turned into red mist, and then turned back into black pupils, constantly switching between the three.

He was not instantly engulfed by the flames like in Chongwu Camp, but was baptized by a small flame inch by inch. After the whole process was completed, the small flame went out with a "puff".

'thump'

Without external stimulation, Zhao Yuanzhou's body softened and he fell to the ground. His clothes were intact, but he looked like he had just been pulled out of the water. He was soaked and his face was pale.

Except for his eyeballs which could still move left and right, he was so tired that not even a finger on his body could move.

But his body felt lighter than ever before.

Except for Zhao Yuanzhou, the other three people obviously felt not a burning sensation, but a baptism of the soul, which was so wonderful that they even couldn't help but linger. After it was over, they still looked as if they were bathing in it.

Several people cleaned up the scene, moved the unconscious people into the inn, and put Zhao Yuanzhou on the carriage. Only Bai Jiu was still in a ferocious posture, unable to move.

It was not until they returned to the Demon Hunting Bureau and Zhao Yuanzhou recovered some strength that Bai Jiu felt better.

After a day of rest, they all gathered in the meeting hall the next day. They were all in high spirits and had a different mental outlook.

What is even more obvious is that after fighting together, the relationship between them has taken a step forward.

"Morning!"

"morning!"

When Wen Xiao arrived, she found that there were people who had arrived earlier than her. Pei Sijing had been there for quite a while. She was wiping her knife while thinking about something with a serious expression.

Pei Sijing looked at Wen Xiao and said shyly.

"I've decided not to leave!"

When she first arrived at the Monster Hunting Division, she felt that everyone was unreliable, so she rarely communicated when she went out to investigate cases. But after seeing what the Chongwu Battalion did and the strength of the people around her, she felt that the Monster Hunting Division was more suitable for her.

"That's great, you're welcome to join us."

Wen Xiao reached out his hand at the right time and shook hands with Pei Sijing.

"Hey! What are you two doing? So early in the morning."

Zhuo Yichen held the sword in one hand and the reluctant Jiuning in the other, pulled him into the conference room, and arranged for him to sit next to him.

Jiuning looked at the two girls holding hands with a gossipy look on her face, while the two girls also looked at the blushing Zhuo Yichen and Jiuning who didn't know what blushing was.

"You, you, you...what's going on?"

Wen Xiao raised her eyebrows, her eyes rolling around, with an expression that said, "Hurry up and tell me."

"I'm his fiancée, isn't it normal for us to hold hands? But you guys, what are you doing so early in the morning?"

After Jiu Ning finished speaking, he leaned back and just happened to lean on Zhuo Yichen.

"Be solemn, this is a meeting room."

Having said that, he didn't push the person away, but picked up the document in front of him and started reading.

Bai Jiu and Zhao Yuanzhou arrived at the same time. They were bickering as they walked. Bai Jiu was now filled with rage. No matter how powerful the monster was, he was not afraid at all.

"I'm telling you, I'll never forgive you for keeping me locked up for a whole day."

"You can't blame me for this! Go find Jiuning..."

Zhao Yuanzhou looked at Jiuning and stopped talking. He didn't want to experience the pain of yesterday again.

But when Bai Jiu saw Jiu Ning, he felt like he had seen a savior and immediately started to complain.

"Sister Jiujiu, the big demon bullied me, you have to help me punish him."

As he spoke, he shook Jiuning's arm, gave up his beloved Xiao Zhuo and squeezed in between the two of them.

Jiu Ning touched his furry head and glanced at Zhao Yuanzhou, who quickly turned to the other side of Zhuo Yichen to block the figure.

When Bai Jiu saw this, he smiled, made a provocative face, and stuck out his tongue, which made everyone fall in love with him.

Seeing that everyone was present, Zhuo Yichen coughed lightly and focused everyone's attention on him.

"Water Ghost Robbery Case..."

Several people began to analyze the case, and finally they split up. Three of them looked for the water ghost, and three of them went to the Qi Mansion to learn about the relationship between the water ghost and the Qi Mansion.

Before everyone stood up, Fan Ying rushed in.

"Oh no! I heard General Wu was killed last night. It was probably done by a demonic beast, but now the people from Chongwu Camp have put the blame on the Demon Hunting Division."

What Chongwuying did was so hateful that one could not wait to burn them all down, but these people were so "rigorous" in their actions that one could not even find any evidence.

"Why aren't you in a hurry? We have been ordered by the upper hand to solve the case within one day."

Fan Ying looked at this and that, and no one moved. He couldn't help sweating anxiously.

It was Wen Xiao who felt sorry for his old father and spoke out to rescue him.

"Don't worry! We already have a clue and we will solve the case within a day."

Several people nodded in agreement, and no one was in a hurry. They just did what they had to do.

"By the way, Zhao Yuanzhou, who is Li Lun you are talking about?"

Zhuo Yichen was curious. He had heard him talk about being led away before, but he was busy at that time and had no time to ask in detail. Now he thought about it again.

"Nothing, just a demon I know, a Yin Huai who has also lived for tens of thousands of years. His greatest ability is parasitism, and he also has a magical weapon, a rattle!"

Rattle, it seems that eight years ago, Jiu Ning also encountered a monster with the same ability, who came to trouble her for no reason, and let her live well in the end.

When Yin Huaili Lun was mentioned, Bai Jiu quickly lowered his head, and the leaves of the locust tree flashed behind his ears.

Jiu Ning quickly turned around and looked in the direction of Bai Jiu. Bai Jiu's eyes were clear. She immediately ran up to her, hugged her arm, and acted coquettishly.

"Let's go! Let's go. I'm going to stay with Sister Jiujiu all day, so you must protect me!"

Bai Jiu jumped up and down, and the little braid on her head swung back and forth.

"Thank you for yesterday."

Zhao Yuanzhou probably had never thanked anyone before, so he was very shy about it.

They had clearly agreed to act together, but when they got out of the house, Zhao Yuanzhou said he had something to do alone, so they had to separate.
