Imperial Demon Slayer Division

When the servants in the mansion heard the sound of the door being broken, they rushed out with sticks. Before they could reach the door, they heard Gu Yan's words.

Immediately, everyone was so frightened that they stood on the spot, not daring to move. The Demon Slayer Division would not joke about this kind of thing. If they could send a Demon Slayer envoy, the evidence must be conclusive.

The demon slayers who rushed in saw the servants all holding weapons and rushed forward. The whole place was filled with screams. The servants, who had neither cultivation nor had any experience in fighting, were confronted by the demon slayers who had experienced hundreds of battles. Just knock them all to the ground

After a while, Sun Yao's family members were all under control. When Gu Yan saw that everyone had been arrested, he walked into Sun Yao's house. Sun Yao's family members, old and young, were tied up tightly and stood in a row.

One of the demon slayers was roping a beautiful woman

The rope was put around the neck, and knotted on the collarbone and chest in sequence. The two peaks were particularly conspicuous, and they were tied tightly after a while.

Gu Yan looked at the woman sitting on the ground unable to move with a strange expression, then patted the demon slayer on the shoulder and asked

"This binding method is good, where did you learn it?"

"Sir, I researched this myself. It ties up like a turtle, and the more I struggle, the tighter it becomes, so I named this binding method turtle shell binding."

The young demon slayer was quite proud of his skills.

"That's right. What's your name? When you go back, you can teach this technique to others."

"Back to my lord, my subordinate Jia Tengying"

The demon slayer replied with excitement.

He casually gave instructions to a demon slayer.

"Go and get Sun Yao's official uniform."

The beautiful woman sitting on the ground felt the rope on her body, shed tears of humiliation, and asked Gu Yan angrily

"Sir, we don't know about Sun Yao's collusion with evil spirits. It has nothing to do with us. Why do you want to arrest us?"

Gu Yan sneered and said

"Hmph! Since two thousand years ago, I, the first head of the Demon Slaying Department, have issued an ironclad order to kill anyone who colludes with evil spirits. If Sun Yao alone colludes with evil spirits, you will also die."

"It's not fair. It's his own fault and he should bear it himself."

The woman did not understand why there was such a law

"Unfair? If you don't deserve to die, then should the Xie family die? Should those who have been harmed by evil people since ancient times die?"

After saying that, he turned around and walked out of the door.

"Put everyone in the Sun family into prison. After catching Sun Yao, take them back to the county and behead him."

The demon-slaying envoys took them outside the mansion, tied them to their horses, then got on their horses and followed Gu Yan towards the county government office.

Among the prisoners who were tightly tied behind him, there was an elderly man who could not keep up with the speed of the war horse. He was dragged to the ground by the war horse. His body rubbed against the ground, leaving traces of blood wherever he passed.

There are still people in the city, so the speed of the war horses is not very fast, no faster than normal running. Gu Yan does not like to torture people, and he has no intention of tormenting them.

It's just that they want to hunt down Sun Yao and don't have time for them to walk to the prison.

At this time, Xia Puning and the demon-slaying envoys who had gone to Yang Gu Nian's house also rushed back and imprisoned the Sun and Yang families.

Gu Yan took out the tracking talisman, placed it in front of Sun Yao's official uniform that was found, input his energy, and activated the talisman.

The tracking talisman lit up with a white light and turned into a sword, with the tip pointing to the west. Then Gu Yan waved his hand and shouted

"Set off"

next day

Under the non-stop pursuit of Gu Yan and others day and night, they finally caught up with Sun Yao and others at Youshi.

Gu Yan led the demon slayers to a valley. The golden sunset cast a dazzling glow on the woods around the valley. From time to time, birds flew back to the woods with the afterglow of the setting sun, and the surrounding area gradually became quiet.

Gu Yan glanced at the peaks behind the valley, and then whispered

"Sun Yao and Yang Gu Nian should be in the valley ahead, be careful."

These demon-slaying envoys all had advanced levels of cultivation, at least in the middle stage of Qi training. They could withstand the long rush. Starting from Chunfeng County, they worked non-stop for thirty-six hours and finally chased them hundreds of miles to the west of Lingbi County. To Sun Yao and Yang Gunian

After cautiously walking into the valley, they soon discovered Sun Yao and others sitting in an open space resting. Among the accompanying guards were masters of Qi training. They sensed a powerful aura approaching, stood up, and drew their swords to be on guard. road

"Who is it? Come out!"

With a sneer on his face, Gu Yan led the demon slayers out of the dark woods.

"Master Sun, Mr. Yang, where are you going? Why are you in such a hurry?"

Sun Yao, who was not wearing an official hat and showing his pale hair, sat on the ground and drank some water, and said calmly.

"Since Mr. Gu is already chasing you, why bother asking more?"

"Master Sun, since you know why I'm here, why don't you continue to run for your life?"

Sun Yao said with a bitter smile.

"Master Gu, I have no cultivation base and am still in my sixties. I can't run anymore."

Then he winked at the guards around him. The guards vaguely protected Sun Yao and Yang Gu Nian in the middle.

Gu Yan saw everything he did.

"Master Sun, I advise you to go back with me. You should know that with these rotten sweet potatoes and stinky bird eggs around you, there is no way we can stop us."

Sun Yao sighed and suddenly stood up, saying excitedly

"Master Gu, do you know why I turned my back on the human race, colluded with evil spirits, and harmed the Xie family?"

Gu Yan raised his head and looked at the sky with a teasing smile on his lips.

"Oh? Mr. Sun, you might as well tell me how you did such a shameless thing."

"Master Gu has been to Lingbi County many times. What do you think of Lingbi County?"

Gu Yan pondered for a moment, and then said

"Well... the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the city is prosperous."

"Then Mr. Gu, how do you think my political performance in Lingbi County over the past thirty years compares with other magistrates and county governors in the court?"

"Not weak at all. With Master Sun's ability and political achievements, he is more than enough to be the governor of a county."

Sun Yao's eyes were red and his voice was hoarse.

"I have been working hard for Lingbi County for more than thirty years, because when I participated in the imperial examination, when the results were announced, I contradicted Song Kefei, a candidate at the same time,

He used his family connections to keep me, Huiyuan, in Lingbi County for more than thirty years! ! Song Kefei is the minister of the Ministry of Industry, and the Song family is a powerful family in the imperial capital. It has lasted for hundreds of years. How can I, a rootless Piaoping, be able to deal with him? "

"I have never had contact with Song Kefei, but his son Song Zhuo is not a good person. I was transferred to Chunfeng County because Mr. Chen was afraid that Song Kefei would secretly harm me.

Mr. Sun, I sympathize with your experience, but this is also not the reason for you to collude with evil spirits."

Sun Yao covered his face in pain and roared as if to vent

"I don't want to either! I don't want that child to be from Brother Xie's family. Brother Xie and I have been friends for many years, but for revenge and immortality, I am willing to turn into a monster!"

Gu Yan sneered and looked at the crazy old man in front of him.

"Immortality? Even a strong man in the Heavenly Realm cannot live forever. Your so-called immortality is just a lingering life in exchange for one life after another."

"After saying so much, it seems that you don't intend to just surrender."

Gu Yan said loudly

"Sun Yao, the magistrate of Lingbi County, arrested Yang Gu Nian. He colluded with evil spirits and harmed the people. Take him down quickly. If he resists, he will be killed on the spot."

As soon as he finished speaking, the demon-slaying masters behind him drew out their demon-slaying knives and rushed forward, fighting with the guards. The sword light was everywhere in the field, and the sword energy was everywhere.

In less than ten breaths, all the guards and Yang Gu Nian were killed with swords.

At this time, Sun Yao looked at the completely dark sky and laughed.

"Hahaha... Gu Yan, how could I not know that these guards are not the opponents of you who have experienced hundreds of battles to kill demons? The hour of Xu has come, you are finished, Gu Yan!"

A sneer appeared on Gu Yan's lips again, and he looked past Sun Yao to the depths of the woods behind him.

“After waiting for so long, it finally appeared.”
