I Can Deduce Arts by Slaying Demons-Chapter 84: Intelligent Demonic Beast!
"Failure?"
Zhao Sheng and the others felt somewhat embarrassed upon hearing the complaints of the Taiping Town mayor.
However, Lu Xuan had no time to listen to his complaints.
Lu Xuan was merely notifying the Taiping Town mayor, not seeking his consent.
"Just follow my instructions as I’ve stated."
The face of the Taiping Town mayor grew unpleasant, his eyes fixed on Lu Xuan in the middle.
"How do I know if you really are the Profound Bird Guard? I haven’t received any word from Lord County Magistrate."
Although the three over there wore the uniforms of the Profound Bird Guard, who knew if they were imposters.
Especially the man standing in the middle; he looked around twenty and seemed to be the backbone of the group.
Standing beside him were three men in Profound Bird Guard uniforms, appearing almost the same age as him.
Lu Xuan couldn’t be bothered to explain to him, releasing his hands from behind and giving a slight wave forward, signaling Zhao Sheng and the others to take action.
"Arrest them!"
"From now on, Taiping Town is under my command. Li Daren, you’ll be responsible for watching over these children."
"The ritual in three days is canceled. I want to see what severe consequences arise from angering this so-called Jinlin River God."
The Taiping Town mayor, seeing them about to act and hearing their plans, immediately looked flustered, trying to dissuade them.
"Gentlemen, I know you’re well-intentioned, but we truly cannot provoke the Jinlin River God here in Taiping Town."
"If we anger the Jinlin River God, Taiping Town could really be finished."
"I beg you, spare Taiping Town!"
The performance of the Taiping Town mayor made Zhao Sheng and the others feel a bit speechless.
The way he was talking, it sounded as if they were irredeemable villains.
"Apologies, Mayor!"
Qian Hao’s face was firm and decisive. Moving as swiftly as the wind, he leaped several meters forward in a few quick strides, instantly arriving in front of the Taiping Town mayor.
The Taiping Town mayor saw this and was just about to raise his hands to resist.
A surging torrent of energy and blood erupted from Qian Hao’s body, filling the entire hall.
The air within the hall instantly became scorching hot.
The Taiping Town mayor, feeling this oppressive fervent aura, turned pale as paper and trembled uncontrollably.
Under the immense torrent of Qian Hao’s energy and blood, the Taiping Town mayor couldn’t even muster the thought of resistance, as if he were an ant before an elephant, utterly helpless.
"You!"
"Blood Refining Realm!"
Following this, in the disbelieving gaze of the Taiping Town mayor.
Zhao Sheng and Li Daren both unleashed their formidable energy and blood.
The energy and blood, filled with overwhelming pressure, instantly subdued the hall’s guards attempting to resist.
Three Blood Refining Realm?
What kind of Martial Arts Realm must this person who can command these Blood Refining Realm martial artists have reached?
At this point, the Taiping Town mayor had surrendered, ceasing his resistance.
In his eyes as he looked at Lu Xuan, a glimmer of hope appeared, as though seeing the last straw in a desperate situation.
Could this stranger truly resolve the situation with the Jinlin River God? 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚
Lu Xuan, however, paid no heed to the Taiping Town mayor’s emotional shift, standing calmly in place with a deep and indifferent expression, as if everything were under his control.
Every year, the place for Taiping Town’s river god ritual is built on a large wooden platform by the bank of the Jinlin River.
Of course, within these three days, Zhao Sheng and Qian Hao forcibly dismantled it.
Additionally, Zhao Sheng placed large wooden signs along the route past the Jinlin River on both sides.
The wooden signs bore a dozen striking large characters!
Jinlin River, Danger!
No Crossing!
Taiping Town Mayor Stay!
To prevent any accidents, the boats crossing Jinlin River were also confiscated by Zhao Sheng.
Deep into the night, stars spread, shining with a mysterious and distant glow.
The cool moonlight poured like mercury upon the flowing river, laying a thin silver veil over its surface.
The river shimmered with weak silver reflections, evoking an inexplicable sense of desolation.
At this moment, a shadow of more than ten meters long skimmed across the surface of Jinlin River.
Mere moments later, the enormous shadow of about ten meters astonishingly leaped from beneath the river, carrying massive waves.
Rumble!
A deafening sound echoed!
The Jinlin River’s waters splashed onto solid ground as the shadow descended, forming puddles where the water settled.
Thud, thud, thud!
The heavy sound of feet stepping into the water-filled ground broke the silence of the night.
In the bright moonlight, the true appearance of the shadow was revealed.
The shadow stood on four limbs, its head wide and flat, covered with red-brown scales.
Its body was covered in dark black scales, gleaming with a cold sheen.
Two large eyes emitted a faint ethereal glow, its mouth wide open, filled with sharp teeth.
However, in the next moment, the monster spoke like a human.
"Cursed humans, how dare you violate the rules of Jinlin River.!"
"Because of you, I was reprimanded by Mr. Dragon Monarch!"
"In that case, I’ll slaughter you all this time."
"After all, Mr. Dragon Monarch is close to breaking free from the cursed human’s binding from back then."
"Heh....."
Before it finished laughing, a faint sound of footsteps emerged from behind, forcing its intent to laugh wildly back down its throat.
In the vast darkness, a figure slowly approached; who else could it be if not Lu Xuan?
Lu Xuan walked leisurely forward, stopping only when ten meters away from the monster.
"Dragon Monarch?"
This monster with a carp-like face not only spoke human language but also had thick limbs.
Moreover, judging by its words, it seemed there was an even stronger mysterious presence beneath Jinlin River.
"Are you the Jinlin River God?"
Lu Xuan’s face now showed a hint of surprise, as if he were seeing the world for the first time, scrutinizing the carp monster intently.
"Human!"
The moment the carp monster saw Lu Xuan, its large eyes glowed with a ghostly green light.
The carp monster’s eyes were filled with a blood-thirsty and frantic intent, as though desiring to tear Lu Xuan to pieces.
The next second, the carp monster’s limbs burst forth with terrifying momentum, darting wildly towards Lu Xuan.
Seeing this, Lu Xuan’s hands remained behind his back, his expression unperturbed.
"Hmm?"
"It seems the intelligence of this monster isn’t very high."
Though the carp monster possessed human-like intelligence, it was likely below that of a ten-year-old child.
