I run a funeral home, I don't know how to teach people how to slay demons

Yaoguang City.

The night was like ink, rendering the sky into pitch black.

Outside the Changsheng Hall, Gu Jia sat blankly on the steps in front of the store, holding his chin with both hands and scanning the street in front of him aimlessly.

There were fewer and fewer passers-by around, but she still couldn't find that familiar figure.

Gu Jia sighed softly, and just when she was holding her knees and preparing to get up and go back to the store, a gentle voice sounded from her side.

"Jia'er, why are you still in front of the store so late?"

"It's getting colder in Yaoguang City, don't catch a cold."

Lu Changsheng habitually took off his coat and put it on Gu Jia's shoulders. He didn't have time to think about whether he would catch a cold after having the blood of an ancient dragon.

"Master, you are back!"

"You won't stay for another day this time and then leave, right?"

Gu Jia first looked at his master in surprise, and then asked warily.

"It won't happen this time. Master has been away for too long." Lu Changsheng held Gu Jia's little hand and walked back home.

"Right now, I just want to stay at home and do nothing."

The vigilance on Gu Jia's face disappeared immediately, and she said with a slight smile, "Master, tell me, what happened in the past few days since you were gone?"

Lu Changsheng raised his chin slightly, thought for a long time, and then slowly said, "Master, this time, I saw another kind of life."

"It's perfect, very happy, almost without any shortcomings, it's just a pity..."

Gu Jia asked curiously, "What's the pity?"

Lu Changsheng paused and looked at the eldest disciple beside him, "It's a pity that that is not my life."

"The past has passed. They are hidden in my heart. No one can take them away. I don't need to use other people's lives to make up for the regrets I have had."

"If you keep looking back, you will ignore the beauty around you."

"People should still look forward, right?"

Gu Jia nodded thoughtfully.

The corners of his mouth slightly raised, showing a sweet smile towards the master.

...

Tonight, Gu Jia is not the only one waiting for someone inside Yaoguang City.

The headquarters of the Demon Slayer Division had long received the highest order from the chief, and everyone had gone home from get off work early. Only Lin Yuan was left, sitting in the chief's office, waiting patiently.

Crunch.

The door to the chief's office was pushed open from the outside.

An old man walked straight in and sat on the other end of the coffee table.

Cui Hao had already taken off his blood-stained armor and put on normal casual clothes. The expression on his face was as calm as water, and he didn't feel jealous at all when an enemy met.

"I thought Mr. Cui, you would bring Xia Lin with you, but she has been clamoring to know the secret of Fengdu City back then."

Lin Yuan picked up the teapot, filled Mr. Cui with hot tea, and said with a chuckle.

"She did pester me all the way, but you and I both know that if Charlene's big mouth hears it, the whole world will know about it, and it won't be far away."

Cui Hao took the hot tea, took a sip, raised his eyebrows and said.

Lin Yuan and Mr. Cui looked at each other and laughed "haha" at the same time, like a pair of old friends who hadn't seen each other for many years, teasing each other about the bad friends around them.

The hearty laughter echoed and fluttered in the chief's office, then stopped suddenly.

The two of them just poured and drank, silent for a long time.

It wasn't until the pot of tea was finished and Lin Yuan was about to pour tea for Mr. Cui again that Cui Hao reached out to cover his tea cup.

"I really couldn't figure it out at the time..."

Cui Hao did not look at Lin Yuan, but turned to look at the huge panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows in the chief's office, looking at Yaoguang City under the night, and spoke as if talking to himself.

"Fengdu City... was originally planned to be the first line of defense against the demon clan.

In terms of area, Fengdu City is the largest among the four major cities, and is larger than Dawn City and Sun City combined.

In terms of city defense, Fengdu City not only has the most complete city wall, but also has an urn city inside, which is enough to organize multiple counterattacks. There are three underground floors that can hold a huge amount of supplies.

Even if it is completely besieged by the demon clan, it can still last for more than a year, not to mention the densely populated tunnel branches underground. Those are all super cornerstones equipped with large rune arrays.

Even if it is a high-level demon, it is not easy to defeat it easily. What's more, we humans won't watch them do it in vain.

I have been the lord of Fengdu City for most of my life, and I dare not say that I have completely figured out the direction of all the tunnels. Even if the field army is completely wiped out, relying on Fengdu City's own defense, the demon clan can be dragged into street fighting.

It is absolutely impossible for the demon clan to capture Fengdu City without paying a heavy price.

Whether from a strategic or tactical perspective, it would be absolutely stupid to give up Fengdu City so easily.

If someone else had given such an order, my first thought would have been that I was crazy.

Otherwise, the person who gave the order was bewitched by the demon clan, or he was directly an undercover agent arranged by the demon clan within our human race.

But it happened that you gave this order.

I watched you step by step. Ever since you joined the Demon Slayer Division, the 'junhou' has been invincible.

Even if the strengths of the two sides are extremely unequal, you can still win in a difficult environment or minimize losses.

If someone says that you are an undercover agent of the demon clan, I will be the first to not believe it.

But such an order is completely unlike your level and does not meet your ability.

I can't accept it, nor can I understand it. "

Lin Yuan listened to Mr. Cui's words silently, looking directly at him calmly, without any intention of interrupting.

"I've been thinking about it for a long time..." Cui Hao slowly turned his head, looked at Lin Yuan, and said quietly, "It's been a really long time."

"I finally figured it out."

"I know why you gave up Fengdu City so easily, not even willing to try the final resistance."

"You just want to leave the complete Fengdu City to the demon clan."

"You want to decide the outcome in one battle and directly erase the huge gap between the human race and the demon race."

Lin Yuan listened quietly, stuck his two fingers on the teacup, and gently rotated it.

Seeing that Lin Yuan did not refute, Cui Hao continued, "The demon race is different from our human race. They do not have the habit of fighting in the city and have always liked to fight in the field."

"Fight on the spot and supply supplies on the spot. The corpses of the same people can be turned into food at any time anyway. Hiding in the city will restrict their mobility."

"If you want to eliminate a large number of monsters at once, you need a huge city, a city that can hold millions of soldiers."

"And this city must be very, very important to the human race."

"Only in this way will the demon clan stick to it and not let us take it back."

"Fengdu City is a huge cage."

"I believe Yuriu has also considered this issue, but he cannot make up his mind to destroy Fengdu City."

"As long as Fengdu City remains, we can wait for work and continue to consume the human race's vitality. It also provides a stable base for advancement."

"This is a sweet trap and the poison you threw at Yuriu."

"Even if he knew that he would die if he drank it, he would still drink it willingly because he couldn't bear the sweet taste."

"This is your usual command style, this is your level."

Cui Hao stood up slowly, looked down at Lin Yuan, and spoke word by word.

"You want to completely destroy Fengdu City..."

"Together with the millions of monsters in the city, they will be wiped out from this world!"

"Is it right?"

...
