Chapter 50: Chapter 50: Arrival at Su City

On the road, Wei Fan, Ning Xuan, and their companion were galloping on horseback, kicking up a cloud of dust.

The Reception Envoy glanced back at Wei Fan and said, "The Demon Suppression Bureau not only recruits experts like you, Ning Xuan, who have already grown, but also recruits seedlings with potential to train them themselves.

Although Hu Qing’s current cultivation isn’t high, she has a solid foundation. After one or two years of training at the Demon Suppression Bureau, she can become a full-fledged member capable of taking on missions.

In fact, most members of the Demon Suppression Bureau are trained from the Preparatory Camp, and it’s quite rare to be recruited from outside like you guys.

Good seedlings are spotted early and taken away by the Demon Suppression Bureau. Your situation is quite unique."

He was actually puzzled that with Wei Fan’s skills, he should have already become famous.

However, upon investigation, the previous Wei Fan seemed to be just and unyielding without showing much sharpness.

Until Yang Jun of the Fierce Tiger Gang sought revenge because of the Zhang Family incident, using the purity of the Zhang Family Girl to force Wei Fan to kneel. Outraged, Wei Fan killed him, and from then on, he continued to kill until there was not a single demon fiend left in Yun City.

"The Demon Suppression Bureau can make her a full-fledged member in one or two years?"

Wei Fan’s eyes narrowed slightly.

Hu Qing is now at the True Qi Fifth Layer. As far as he knows, the lowest requirement for a mission-capable member of the Demon Suppression Bureau is to be an Acupoint Martial Artist.

Can the Demon Suppression Bureau train Hu Qing into an Acupoint Martial Artist within one or two years?

Ning Xuan’s voice sounded, "Brother Wei, you still don’t quite understand the Demon Suppression Bureau. All martial artists aspire to join the Demon Suppression Bureau not only because they have a collection of various lost martial arts, but also because of their rich resources, including elixirs that are highly sought after by outsiders.

If the Demon Suppression Bureau is willing, they can train Miss Hu Qing into an Acupoint Martial Artist in mere months, not years.

In Yun City, there aren’t many Acupoint Martial Artists, but in a place like Su City, they aren’t a rare sight, though not quite everywhere.

I’m quite familiar with Yun City, yet there isn’t even a shop for martial artists on your streets.

But in Su City, weapons, secret manuals, elixirs—all can be bought if you have the money; your martial arts are just not complete.

Honestly, with your talent, if you had entered the Demon Suppression Bureau earlier and apprenticed under a Commander, you might have already been a Celestial Martial Artist, awe-inspiring to say the least."

Wei Fan listened, his heart racing, for this was the place martial artists yearned for.

Compared to Su City, Yun City was practically a countryside; aside from a few blacksmith shops with ties to martial artists, there was nothing remotely related to them.

The Lu Family colluded with demon fiends because they lacked access to elixirs, forced instead to resort to the despised Human Pill, a demonic elixir.

"Tell me more about the Demon Suppression Bureau!"

By now, he was already considered part of the Demon Suppression Bureau, but his understanding of it was still superficial.

The Reception Envoy nodded to his words and said, "The Demon Suppression Bureau is divided into five major camps: the Preparatory Camp, which is where Hu Qing will go.

I am from the Internal Affairs Camp, responsible for all logistical chores and intelligence, etc.

There is also the Combat Battalion!

All the above, you don’t need to worry about. What you should focus on is the Combat Battalion, which is where you will be going.

The Combat Battalion has three Demon Suppression Commanders, eight Demon Suppression Deputy Generals, dozens of Demon Suppression Captains, and below that, divided into Black-clothed Demon Suppression Guards, Red-clothed Demon Suppression Guards, Silver-clothed Demon Suppression Guards, Golden-clothed Demon Suppression Guards, and Purple-clothed Demon Suppression Guards!

The Black-clothed Demon Suppression Guards are the lowest; generally, they need to be accompanied by Red-clothed Demon Suppression Guards on missions..."

As the group rushed on, the Demon Suppression Bureau gradually took shape in Wei Fan’s mind.

In simple terms, the Demon Suppression Bureau is responsible for all matters related to demons and fiends. Aside from the basic allowances, every mission completed merits corresponding accomplishments recorded in the register. With these merits, one can exchange for martial arts secret manuals, cultivation resources, etc., within the Demon Suppression Bureau.

Wei Fan cracked his whip, "Is there any strategy behind which Commander or Deputy General to join?

Since there’s a division among Commanders and Deputy Generals, there must be differences.

You naturally choose the best one to rely on; it’s good to rest under a big tree.

He wasn’t afraid of many tasks or danger, as none joining the Demon Suppression Bureau were ones seeking an easy life. Moreover, his situation mandated fighting against demons and fiends.

But he’s rather ruthless, so he needs to find someone who can cover for him and protect him.

The Reception Envoy glanced at Wei Fan again, shaking his head, "For Ning Xuan and Su Xuerong, choosing under which Commander’s wing to serve does require careful consideration.

But it’s different for you. You shouldn’t think about joining under a Commander but rather about which Commander to choose as your master.

Either way, it’s a huge leap forward for you. The question is from which direction you wish to ascend."

Ning Xuan was silent for a moment, feeling a sense of admiration.

The first time he met Wei Fan, they were already reserve members of the Demon Suppression Bureau, carrying out an assessment mission, and even the information about Wei Fan was passed on to the Demon Suppression Bureau by them.

Now, he was still considering which Commander’s wing to join, while Wei Fan was contemplating which Commander to apprentice under and from which direction to ascend.

Moreover, seeing Wei Fan’s lack of interest in becoming an apprentice, he speculated that he looked down upon those Commanders.

The group traveled day and night without much sleep, only occasionally stopping to eat some dried food and let the horses rest.

Because along the way, there were no houses or even a single village or town.

Two days later, a thick fog appeared in front of Wei Fan, and amidst the fog, majestic mountains could be faintly seen.

"Once we pass this fog, we will have reached Su City."

Beyond the fog, a vast and vibrant land unfolded before Wei Fan’s eyes.

"What a magnificent and blessed place!"

Wei Fan sat on horseback, somewhat in awe; after passing through the fog, he could clearly feel the vitality of the true qi within his body become more active.

Ahead lay rolling mountains, and at the horizon’s end, a mighty colossal city stood tall on the land, stretching unknown kilometers.

Ning Xuan rode up to him, keeping pace with Wei Fan: "It’s indeed a land blessed with talents, but it has also bred countless great demons. It’s unknown how many are lurking, ready to devour people.

Su City administers twelve cities, one hundred eighty-two large towns, and every day, many people are eaten by demons."

Wei Fan felt a chill in his heart, knowing that in such a place, the demons must be terrifying, with some having lived hundreds or even thousands of years not being surprising.

"Finally arrived at Su City!"

After another half an hour of travel, they arrived underneath a towering city wall, bustling with activity and people coming and going.

"Everyone, dismount. Besides emergency duties, riding horses in the city is prohibited in Su City!"

The Reception Envoy, Ning Xuan, and Su Xuerong dismounted first, reminding Wei Fan and Hu Qing, who were visiting Su City for the first time.

The two of them followed suit, dismounting and leading their horses.

Wei Fan gazed around; the imposing city wall had three large gates, the middle one tightly shut, leaving only the side gates open on either side.

However, even these side gates were over ten meters wide, larger than the main gate of Yun City.

"So many martial artists!"

What attracted Wei Fan the most were the people coming and going, among whom nearly a third were dressed like martial artists, each with bulging temples.
