Under such circumstances, Zhao Yingjie, who didn't know Lin Xiu's real identity, naturally wouldn't show any abnormal attitude, and just regarded it as a casual cultivator who made friends while traveling and had some common topics.
The relationship between the two parties got closer after Cong Liushan's trip before, and now Lin Xiu didn't show any embarrassment when he visited rashly, but welcomed Lin Xiu into the cave, and after a few words, Lin Xiu got straight to the point.
"I came here this time because I want to ask my fellow daoist about something."
Zhao Yingjie did not agree hastily, but asked cautiously: "I don't know what it is?"
"Exorcist."
It can be seen that this answer caught him off guard, and he was taken aback for a moment before he realized: "How did Fellow Daoist Qian provoke the Demon Exorcist?"
Lin Xiu smiled wryly after hearing the words: "It's not provoking, but I heard that the exorcist is in charge of matters related to monsters in the city. Considering that Qian will have to deal with hunting and selling monsters in the future, this is why I approached Zhao Daoyou. Do you know a thing or two in advance?"
Only then did Zhao Yingjie look stunned, and the originally slightly tense atmosphere relaxed, pouring spiritual tea and pondering over his words: "Friend Qian Daoist made a mistake, this 'Demon Exorcist' is not expelling monsters, but' Half demon'."
Then, Zhao Yingjie carefully explained what he saw as a "monster exorcist" based on his own knowledge and understanding.
Exorcist Division Exorcist Division, as its name suggests, is an organization with the main function of "exorcism", and it is under the jurisdiction of "Qiling Building" like other large and small ones in Xianzhong City, so as to maintain Xianzhong. The order of inner monks, mortals and half-demons.
Under the pattern of "Three Passes and Seven Cities", the mortals and monks in Qingyuan Territory gathered on a large scale, which was already a bit chaotic, but now with the addition of half-monsters, even if the immortal cultivators have mana, they can't The discipline of management is not just "powerful and bricks fly" to make it work.
Moreover, the population of each city is not much lower than that of the modern metropolis before Lin Xiu crossed, which also makes the Jindan real people on the top floor unable to take care of everything, but have to allocate some affairs to the foundation building and refining equipment below. on the monk.
In this case, an organization similar to the "Demon Exorcist" came into being.
However, the duties of the "Demon Exorcist" subtly conflict with the "Guardian Division". According to the literal understanding, the job of the "Demon Exorcist" is to expel the foundation and below monsters. If it exists, it must be reported to the real person in Qiling Tower immediately.
But in Wensheng City, similar work is carried out by the "Patrol Division". Now Xianzhong City has an extra organization with overlapping functions for no reason, which is a bit weird.
In particular, there are multiple fake alchemy monks in this "Exorcist". Although the gap between the foundation and the golden alchemy cannot be calculated with common sense, the fake alchemy monks are already the strongest existence under the golden alchemy. It doesn't make sense to let these precious combat forces stay in the "Demon Exorcist", an organization with overlapping functions.
It is also for this reason that Lin Xiu chose to visit Zhao Yingjie after his trip in the outer city. As a disciple of a real person, he also has a position in the Qiling Tower, and he has good friends with the monks in the city-the previous small trade fair is enough to prove that he has a strong network , You should have a certain understanding of this "Demon Exorcist".
As expected, Lin Xiu learned another real duty of the "Demon Exorcist" from him.
"When Xianzhong City was first set up, there was no 'Demon Exorcist', but in recent years, the number of half-demons in the city has continued to increase, and this 'Demon Exorcist' came into being. It is mainly responsible for handling all matters related to half-demons .”
"Fellow Daoist also knows that because half-demons inherit the blood of the demon race, even if they cannot cultivate, they are still more miraculous than mortals. 'The Exorcist' reconciles from that."
Speaking of this, Zhao Yingjie's tone paused a little: "But because of this, the 'Demon Exorcist' is very domineering, killing those half-demons at will, and mortals are fine, but if those half-demons offend people like you and me Like a foundation-building cultivator, I'm afraid that he doesn't need to do it himself, but this 'monster exorcist' will make it impossible for him to survive or die."
Hearing this, the expression on Lin Xiu's face remained unchanged, but he felt confused in his heart.
From the front, it sounds like this "Demon Exorcist" seems to have taken on a function of maintaining racial unity, so that Xianzhong City will not be in turmoil due to sharp internal conflicts, but judging from Zhao Yingjie's words, what the "Demon Exorcist" has done Things seem to be just the opposite.
In order to prevent the half-demon from causing any trouble by taking advantage of his race, this "monster exorcist" chose to suppress the rights and interests of the half-demon in turn. Now let alone a monk, even a mortal without cultivation can easily All these half-demons cast contempt and spurn on them, even though these half-demons can easily defeat ten mortals without cultivation.
Such behavior is not so much maintaining unity as it is intensifying conflicts.
Thinking about it, Zhao Yingjie said in a serious tone: "If it's not necessary, it's better for you, Fellow Daoist Qian, to reduce your contact with this 'Demon Exorcist' in the future. Although he usually doesn't treat monks badly, this 'Demon Exorcist' does what he does. He is domineering but also somewhat sinister, and with the backing of a real person from the Qiling Building behind him, even if you have any complaints, you will stay away from him."
Lin Xiu nodded: "Qian knows."
Afterwards, the two changed the topic to Cong Liushan and his party's gains. After chatting for about half an hour, Lin Xiu got up to leave.
After leaving Zhao Yingjie's cave, Lin Xiu recalled what he had seen and heard after he stepped into Xianzhong City on the road.
This is not the first time, someone persuaded me not to get involved too much... Anyway, these things have nothing to do with the status class I belong to, so why bother to get involved?
Now as long as you go back to the cave, close the door and ignore everything that happened outside, you can still live comfortably in the city as a "Qianjian" tomorrow, and even for a longer time, you can talk to Qi from the standpoint of "Lin Xiu". It is not impossible to negotiate with Linglou and get a chance to pass the "Zhongxia Pass".
And if you want to get all this, just do nothing.
Stopping, gently touching the hilt of the Xihe sword at his waist, Lin Xiu let out a long breath.
"In the end, it's hard to calm down."

Half a month later, outside Xianzhong City.
120 miles to the west, Xiaping Village.
It is said to be a village, but in fact it was abandoned with the invasion of Qingqiu monsters more than a hundred years ago. After that monster invasion, the survivors in the village all fled to Xianzhong City, where monks lived. What remains here is just a desolate scene of ruins and ruins, mixed with the whimpering of the cold wind, it seems a bit eerie in the middle of the night.
However, as a powerful monk, let alone the atmosphere, even if some ghosts and ghosts really appeared, they would have to do something before deciding to deal with them. Naturally, they would not shrink back because of this mere external cause.
As a long line of caravans entered the old site of the village, the originally gloomy atmosphere eased somewhat.
The strange thing is that the ratio of this caravan is not usually composed of a matching number of goods and guards. Compared with the total number of more than 30 carriages, there is only one guard.
Moreover, these goods are also very strange. There is no one to guide the pulling carriage, but they can follow the people forward independently, and there are no commodities piled up on the carriage for delivery, but one by one airtight carriages. It is also impossible to observe the inside, just like a moving coffin.
After pulling these "goods" into the village, the lone guard didn't move on, but simply stopped in the village, but he didn't intend to light a fire to rest, but stood there as if in a daze. Silent.
Soon, a sudden change occurred.
Accompanied by a gust of wind, a strong demonic aura was mixed in it, easily enveloping the carriage, guards, and the entire Xiaping Village. If there is such a thing as a "demonic wind", this gust of wind is probably the best interpretation of it up.
Facing the sudden evil wind, except for the frightened neighing of the horses pulling the carriage, the guard faced the empty gusts of evil wind, clasping his hands and calling: "But General Tiger is in front of you?"
The answer was a frightening whistling.
The rolling sound wave was transmitted under the vibration of spiritual energy, and the village that had been abandoned for hundreds of years ushered in a catastrophe. Only a few wreckages were knocked down one after another, mixed with the gusts of evil wind, for a while it seemed to be in the Disaster scene.
It's just that the roar and the evil wind came and went quickly. Not long after the roar, accompanied by a burly figure with a height of seven feet, the evil wind and the roar suddenly subsided.
However, the pressure felt by the guards did not decrease at all because of this, and it was even stronger than before.It's just that the source of the pressure is no longer the evil wind and the roar, but this single figure——
Jindan Demon General, General Tiger.
The person who came was the tiger demon who escaped after being defeated by Jing Yanling in the battle of Congliu Mountain more than half a month ago.
But now it seems that it is not as embarrassed as it was half a month ago, and there is no trace of scars on its body. You must know that it is a golden core, and it is a wound left by a sword cultivator in the middle of the golden core. The most serious thing is the sword intent attached to it, if it cannot be expelled, it is possible that the wound will remain forever.
Unless the tiger demon finds someone with stronger sword intent within half a month to expel it, or a late Jindan cultivator uses great power to calm it down, or... the person who exerted the sword intent takes the initiative to withdraw the sword intent.
"Have you brought 'Blood Food'?"
The guard quickly agreed: "Yes, yes, by the order of the real person, I brought 360 'half demons' this time."
The "General Tiger" turned his gaze to the sealed compartments, bloody excitement appeared on his face, the corner of his mouth grinned, and a bloody stench came out of his nostrils, and he said casually as he walked towards the compartment: " After one month, this general will drive three hundred monsters across the mouth of the Rongliu River."
The human monks behind him didn't respond as respectfully as before, but General Tiger didn't care too much about "food" at the moment. If it wasn't for the consideration that it might affect the transaction relationship with that person in the city, compared to these people who are neither human nor demon Its inferior "blood food", these human monks with cultivation and regeneration have long been its mouth.
But it won't take too long, as long as the envoy's plan can be implemented smoothly, he will be able to rush into the human city in a short time. At that time, not to mention the foundation of the human race, even the golden core may not be able to share a few mouthfuls.
……
Unlike the previous few times, although special materials were used to "cover people's eyes and ears", the quality of the "food boxes" used this time was obviously much higher than before. Even at a distance, I still can't perceive the existence of the "food" inside, and I don't know what expressions the "blood food" inside will show after the "food box" is opened.
Thinking of this, General Tiger's copper-bell-like eyes were bloodshot, and the action of opening the "food box" seemed a bit rough, but after it swelled a bit, the inhumanly thick right arm was about to fall on the "food box". A second before the "box", the movement stopped suddenly, and the wind pressure brought by it blew across the carriage and shook it endlessly. Among the creaking noises, there was no crying and howling.
"..."
"General Tiger, why don't you continue?"
He wanted to turn around, but the sharp feeling behind him made General Hu dare not take any action.
——Sword repair.
And it's not an ordinary swordsman.
As a pioneer of the Qingqiu demon clan, it is not that General Hu has encountered human sword cultivators in the past 20 years since he sneaked into Qingyuan. At this moment, the person behind him is half strong, even if it is not extremely deep, the piercing sword intent seems to have penetrated the fur, cut through the flesh and blood, cut off the bones - and penetrated into the heart.
If the sword cultivators I met before were all fighting with blunted swords, then the one that was stuck on the back at this moment was just out of the scabbard and was about to drink blood - the fierce sword.
"Ow-!!!"
There was a roar and the ground exploded, and the surrounding land and more than 30 carriages were blown to pieces, and there was nothing inside.Not only that, but also those panicked horses disappeared in the instant of being attacked-it was all formed by the illusion of talismans, but they were covered by divine consciousness before, so they were not seen through by General Hu.
Right now, General Hu has no time to pay attention to these things. Even if he tried his best to violently rise up, a deep bloodstain was unavoidably cut behind him. A sword cut without compromise.
After the prototype was revealed in General Hu's miserable roar, he could intuitively see the seriousness of the injury, and almost cut it in half.
"The monster race has its merits. If this sword falls on the golden core of the human race, even three of them will be confessed, but your excellency can still be full of spirit... um, meowing? It still surprised Lin. "
Casually spread the spiritual energy sword blade fixed by the spirit lock array in his hand, looking at the bloody tiger demon, Lin Xiu's eyes showed emotion.
It's a pity that the distance just now was a bit subtle. If you use the "Thunderbolt" series, you will inevitably get involved if you are too close. If you use the "Dongfeng" series if you are too far away, the warm-up is not enough, so I chose to use the formation method to fix the aura and slash. Unfortunately, judging by the results The power is not enough, this sword can be called lore when facing a human monk, but it is not good enough to kill a monster general in the early stage of Jindan.
After feeling the injury on his body, the tiger demon, which showed its prototype, stared at the human monk who was less than half its height in front of him with bloodshot eyes.
"What do you want to do?! Jing Yanling repented? Or Huang Changhe——no, you are not a monk from Qiling Tower!"
"...It seems that even a monster knows Qilinglou better than me."
For a moment, Lin Xiu didn't know what expression to make, so he could only use his spiritual consciousness to induce the surrounding mana, and combined with the "spirit lock array" to stack layers of spiritual exoskeleton "armor" for himself.
The tiger demon who realized Lin Xiu's identity also gave up the conversation. After realizing that this was a life-and-death fight rather than a show fight, it activated the demon core in its body and released its second "supernatural power"
"Roar--!!!"
Amidst the roaring sound that shook for ten miles, I saw that the size of this colorful tiger was continuously expanding and expanding. It only took two breaths, and it was directly enlarged by thirty times on the basis of the existing huge size!
The entire Xiaping Village is like a toy under its feet, and the last trace of it was completely destroyed by an unconscious trampling. Even so, the wound left on the waist is still dazzling, and the dark red blood is constantly seeping and dripping , Stimulating the tiger demon into madness.
Looking at the exaggerated giant tiger in front of him, Lin Xiu's eyes became more emotional.
The supernatural powers, the spells that the idle human race can't ask for, but the spells that the monster races can't ask for, and the power is a little bit stronger, plus the Qingqiu old fox whose cultivation base surpasses all the people in the Qingyuan leader, No wonder the three sects were forced to come here.
Of course, what appeared in front of Lin Xiu was not the rumored Qingqiu old fox in the late stage of Nascent Soul, but a heavily injured tiger demon who was not in the early stage of Jindan.
And Lin Xiu is not an early golden elixir monk who usually uses magic weapons to deal with the enemy, but a golden elixir (sky-based flying sword) and magic weapon (one-time) to deal with the enemy, and has made a name for himself in this world of cultivating immortals. exist.
"Will I grow bigger, and I will too."
A few steps forward, the originally small figure was lifted up under the cover of layers of aura exoskeleton to be as high as the usual 40 feet of the tiger demon. At the same time, there was an extra [-]-meter-long giant sword in his hand , Facing the tiger monster, the head of Liuyang slashed down with a sword.
"Roar--!"
Facing the menacing sword, the tiger demon recklessly bumped into it, planning to bite Lin Xiu who was staying in "Susanohu" at the cost of taking the sword forcefully.
Similar scenes are not uncommon in General Tiger's fighting career. When facing human monks, as long as he is more fierce and ruthless than the opponent, then those enemies that seem dangerous and difficult will take the initiative to retreat. Useful body", and once this time comes, as long as it continues to attack regardless of the consequences, it will be able to reverse the situation, and it is even possible to complete the counter-kill.
Relying on this ferocious strength, General Hu once personally crushed a human race at the middle stage of the golden core, and now he has no suspense against a monk who is only at the early stage of the golden core—
"Ah-"
"—Boom!!!"
The first half of the syllable is the sharp blade cutting through the flesh, and the second half of the syllable is the sword's edge sinking into the ground.
Until the [-]-foot-long tiger demon split into two from the waist and fell to the ground, both General Tiger and Lin Xiu had the same question: .
——How dare he/it?
