Imperial Demon Slayer Division

In Chengbei Village, not far from Beicheng, the doors of every household are closed, and various traps for catching ferocious beasts are set up at the entrance of the village.

Chengbei Village is relatively close to the mountains. Unlike Chengnan Village, which relies on farming for a living, the villagers in Chengbei Village mainly rely on hunting.

Most of the villagers are master hunters, and the villagers are also slightly more powerful in combat, and they are even better at setting up various traps.

Gu Yan observed the traps at the entrance of the village. For a warrior like him in the late stage of Qi training, these traps had no effect at all.

But once zombies appear, they can cause a lot of trouble for them and give villagers enough time to escape.

With a gentle tap of his feet, Gu Yan flew over the trap like an eagle and landed on the village street.

He approached a house and knocked on the door, but no one answered.

After knocking on several houses in succession, no one was there.

Gu Yan walked on the road in the village, looking around. When he arrived at the village, he saw all the villagers gathered together.

Young and middle-aged men were standing around outside with hoes, shovels, bows and arrows, protecting the old, weak, women and children behind them.

The sharp-eyed villagers saw Gu Yan walking over wearing the official uniform of the Demon Slayer Division. The smoky black official uniform had a tiger head embroidered with gold thread on the chest.

The man shouted excitedly: "It's the Demon Slayer. The Demon Slayer from the Demon Slayer Division is here."

"The Demon Slayer is here, please put down your hands."

Gu Yan glanced around and found no such thing as a memorial shed, so he asked

"Where are the three deceased?"

"The village chief was worried that the corpse would turn into a corpse, so he had it burned."

A strong man with a shovel replied.

Gu Yan nodded. The villagers who hunted for a living all year round were more cautious about this kind of thing than Chengnan Village.

"Do you know where the zombies went?"

A dark and thin young man pointed at the mountain behind the village

"Sir, the zombies are heading back to the mountains."

Gu Yan nodded, told them not to run around, and then walked toward the mountains alone.

Arriving in front of the mountain, Gu Yan took a deep breath, took out the shimmering demon-seeking disk from his arms, and followed the direction of the pointer.

The demon-seeking disk can sense whether there are evil things nearby. Once it is close, it will emit a faint light and the pointer will point out the direction of the evil.

Gu Yan followed the direction pointed by the pointer and stopped in front of a cave.

There are many gravels and weeds at the entrance of the cave, covering the cave, and the cave exudes a faint gloomy atmosphere.

“This is it”

Gu Yan used the demon-slaying knife to push aside the weeds at the entrance of the cave, kicked away the gravel, and walked in cautiously.

In the gloomy cave, three zombies stood upright in the darkest part of the cave with talismans on their foreheads.

It's noon now, and the Yang energy is strong. Even without the talisman, the three zombies can't get out of the cave.

When Gu Yan saw the talisman on the zombie's head, he didn't hesitate and slashed at the zombie with his knife.

With one slash, the zombie was cut in two without any hindrance.

The Yang Qi is at its strongest at noon, and the zombie's defense also drops significantly.

During his time in the Demon Slayer Division, Gu Yan deeply understood the importance of "killing you while you are sick"

Then he raised the knife and chopped off the heads of the remaining two zombies like watermelons. The two corpse heads rolled all over the ground.

After killing three zombies, Gu Yan looked around at the scene in the cave.

A small pool of blood was found behind the zombie, and the crimson blood exuded a rancid smell.

"Is this a blood pool? Who is so bold as to dare to expose the human race and secretly raise corpses!"

Gu Yan took a few steps back, then the thunder in his palms condensed, and a thunderbolt hit the blood pool, flattening the small pool of blood.

After searching around and finding no new clues, they turned around and left the cave, blocked the entrance with rocks, and then returned to Chengbei Village to inform the villagers that the zombies had been eliminated.

In the main hall of the Demon Slaying Department of Chunfeng County, Gu Yan reported to Lin Shaotai the clues found in the mountains behind Chengbei Village.

Lin Shaotai sat at the desk, tapping his fingers on the table irregularly.

"I will ask people to pay more attention to this matter. You should also pay more attention to it and report it immediately as soon as there are relevant clues. In addition, you handled the small blood pool very well. I will give you a note and ask the guards to take you to the arsenal to collect it. Just a book of exercises."

"Thank you sir"

After Gu Yan bowed, he turned around and left the Demon Slaying Hall.

There are arsenals in the Demon Slaying Division branches in all states and counties in the nine states of Daqin, which store various weapons and secret techniques. It is the most important place in the Demon Slaying Division next to the Evil Suppressing Prison.

Follow the guards through the checkpoints and come to the arsenal, handing over the note and token written by Lin Shaotai.

After the guard guarding the arsenal checked his identity, he opened the door and let Gu Yan in. The arsenal was divided into two parts, and Gu Yan went to the side where the secret books of exercises were stored.

Rows of bookshelves were arranged in an orderly manner, including the swordsmanship area, swordsmanship area, palm skills area, etc. Gu Yan walked to the swordsmanship area and looked through it.

Picking up a book of sword techniques called "Violent Wind Slash" and flipping through it, he found that the sword techniques were wide open and closed, and the sword power was unparalleled. However, Gu Yan already had the "Double Ultimate Slash" from Shen Qing, which was even more powerful.

His eyes glanced at the names of various sword techniques, "Baji Knife" and "Returning Wind Knife"...

His eyes suddenly stopped in front of a book called "Thunder in the Sleeve".

Gu Yan took it out from the bookshelf and looked through it carefully. Xiu Zhonglei's sword technique emphasizes that the sword is like lightning, the blade is not stained with blood, the sword technique is extremely fast, and beheading can be done instantly at close range.

Gu Yan took Xiuzhong Lei to the entrance of the arsenal to register, then left and returned to his yard.

After finding a short knife at home, I began to practice "Thunder in the Sleeve". I stood in front of a small tree with breathless concentration, and my Qi followed the trajectory of the "Thunder in the Sleeve".

Gu Yan waved his hand fiercely, and the short knife poked out from his sleeve. Then a silver light instantly appeared in front of the small tree, as if it cut through the void. The short knife suddenly appeared in front of the small tree, and the small tree in front of him was divided into two.

Gu Yan's eyes lit up when he looked at Xiaoshu's smooth incision.

"The sword is as fast as lightning, and it is unparalleled in speed. It is indeed a good swordsmanship. When fighting, the thunder in the sleeve will definitely have miraculous effects."

Gu Yan is known for his sharp swords. Although he can use the demon-slaying sword to cause greater destructive power, it is not as fast or as sudden as the "Thunder in the Sleeve".

He looked at the slightly chipped short knife in his hand and shook his head.

He threw the short knife on the table and poured a cup of tea.

"The thunder in the sleeves is too fast and violent, and ordinary knives cannot withstand it. It seems that we still need to find a good knife."

"I heard that the Ministry of Industry and Martial Arts has just refined a batch of mysterious daggers. If you need it, why don't you go to the Ministry of Industry and Martial Arts to have a look?"

Lin Qingshang, who had just finished his mission, walked out of the room and said

"Didn't you go on a mission this morning?"

Gu Yan looked at Lin Qingshang in a long dress and said doubtfully

"The two little Yin spirits didn't waste any time. They killed them with one knife and rushed back immediately."

Gu Yan put down the teacup in his hand and said

"Well, I'll go to the state's Industrial and Armed Forces Department to see if there are any suitable knives."

"I will go with you"

Lin Qingshang ran back to the room, picked up the demon-slaying knife, and followed Gu Yan to Huaizhou City.

The Demon Slayer Department is actually divided into two departments. The Demon Slayer Officer Department and the Industrial and Military Department are the two main departments of the Demon Slayer Department.

It's just that those in charge of research and development in the Ministry of Industry and Armed Forces don't like to show up, so they don't have a high reputation among the people.

He is the leader of the Demon-Slaying Officer line, so he is famous throughout the world.

The Ministry of Industry and Military Affairs is responsible for studying the weaknesses of various demons and developing various weapons, talismans, and formations, which is equivalent to the arsenal of demon-slaying officers.

The weapons, elixirs, talismans, etc. produced by the Ministry of Industry and Martial Arts are definitely the best of the best. If a casual cultivator in the world has something produced by the Ministry of Industry and Martial Arts, he will definitely be able to brag about it for a long time.

Chunfeng County is not far from Huaizhou City, and one day is enough for a round trip.

Huaizhou City is located at the junction of the three counties of Huaizhou, Chunfeng County, Changning County and Feiyun County.

Zhang Yihu, the official of Huaizhou Town, ‘Jue Jian’, is stationed in Huaizhou City to ensure that if there are evil spirits in the three counties that cannot be dealt with by the local demon slaying division, they can immediately arrive for support.

Huaizhou City is very prosperous, second only to the imperial capital of Zhongzhou. The state capitals of the nine states of Da Qin are all located in the position of suppressing the dragon vein of the nine states.

This place is not only guarded by Zhang Yihu, the seventh most powerful sword in the Heavenly Ranking, but

The Su family, the best swordsman family in the world, is here, and the current head of the Su family, the Tongtian Sword Master Su Yu, is the third most terrifying existence on the heavenly list.

The Su family in Huaizhou is different from other top sects in Kyushu. The Su family hates evil and pursues the same purpose as the Demon Slayer Division. It kills all evil on sight.

It is said that the ancestor of the Su family in Huaizhou was one of the strongest people who resisted evil spirits thousands of years ago.
