The next day, after finishing his morning homework, Su Rui ran to the government office in the front yard of the county government office.

County Magistrate Su had indeed returned, though he had lost a considerable amount of weight and his hair was a bit grayer. Ever since the demonic rebellion began, he had been leading his troops outside the city, exterminating the evil spirits without stopping. Su Rui learned from the little fox demon that he had only returned yesterday. However, the county government hadn't relaxed its efforts to eliminate the evil spirits outside the city. After County Magistrate Su's return, Captain Wu led his troops out of the city.

Magistrate Su was busy reviewing documents piled up like a mountain. Seeing this, Su Rui couldn't help but feel a headache. Would interrupting his train of thought break his legs? But he expected Magistrate Su to remain in this state for the next few days. He knew he would have to be punished sooner or later. So he had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk into his office.

"Father..." Su Rui knocked on the door and called softly.

Magistrate Su looked up from the pile of documents at Su Rui and said unhappily, "Where were you yesterday? I didn't see you the whole day!"

"Yesterday, let me think about it!" Su Rui pretended to think, then replied as if he was thinking. "Yesterday morning, I went out and helped an old woman cross the street. I happened to see some hooligans bullying someone, so I couldn't help but fight them twice. Then I had a meal with friends at a restaurant, and finally practiced kung fu at a friend's house for a while. I came back in the evening... That's about it!"

"Speaking of feasting... Father, I'm out of money. Can you give me some extra pocket money?"

Magistrate Su was already a little irritated. When he heard his words, he couldn't help but throw the brush in his hand away and cursed, "Get out!"

Su Rui caught the brush he threw with a playful smile, handed it back respectfully, and said, "Father, it's true that I'm short of money. But I came to see you to ask if you have a sword. I need a sword!"

After saying this, he didn't hide anything and directly drew out a strand of Gengjin true qi from his dantian and suspended it in his palm.

When County Magistrate Su saw this sharp and brilliant strand of Gengjin Qi, his eyes widened and his mouth opened wide. He, who was usually calm, couldn't even speak clearly:

"Second brother, this... is this a ray of innate true qi?"

His expression was like that of a father who had no expectations for his child, but suddenly saw his child coming with an admission letter from the top institution of learning. His expectations were completely exceeded.

It was really surprising and delightful!

"Father, this is not the innate true qi cultivated through martial arts training, but a wisp of Gengjin true qi!" Su Rui explained.

County Magistrate Su had actually already reacted. It was not like he had not seen people who had reached the innate level of martial arts. He had also seen Old Man Wei in the county jail. His innate true energy was definitely not as sharp and dazzling as the one Su Rui took out!

"Okay, that's great! I'll notify your uncles and ask them to find a sword for you. For the time being, you can just use my sword." Upon hearing this, County Magistrate Su patted his thigh, grinning so hard that crow's feet appeared. He then asked Su Rui, "By the way, do you have any special requirements for the sword?"

"Of course the rarer the better!" Su Rui replied.

Afterward, Magistrate Su asked about the fierce battle with the wolf demon and the snake demon that day. Su Rui concealed the existence of the little fox demon and Sister Sun, and got away with it with nine truths and one lie. After that, the two chatted for a few more words about family matters, and Su Rui took Magistrate Su's sword and walked out of the government office.

Only after returning to the inner courtyard did Su Rui pull Magistrate Su's sword from its plain cowhide scabbard. He saw the sword was three feet long, its blade made of an unknown metal mixed with pig iron. It shone silver, like a pool of autumn water, chilling the air. The blade was so sharp that it could easily cut through hair!

The word "Hanjiang" is engraved on the hilt, which should be the name of the sword given by the swordsmith.

Su Rui mobilized the Gengjin true energy in his body and infused it into the Hanjiang sword according to the records of "Gengjin Sword Qi Jue". After a little sacrifice, when he picked up the Hanjiang sword again, a one-inch long sharp sword energy emerged from the tip of the sword, and the edge was dazzling.

Su Rui raised his sword and gently chopped the stone of the rockery nearby. It felt like cutting tofu. He easily cut the stone in half without any effort. The cut was so neat that it looked like a mirror.

Su Rui saw this and knew that the sword energy had been completed, and he was very happy. According to the "Gengjin Sword Qi Jue", the sharpness of this Gengjin sword energy is considered to be the best among all sword arts, and Gengjin sword energy has the ability to specifically break other people's magic weapons. Its dominance can be imagined.

Su Rui collected the Hanjiang Sword with satisfaction, carried it and the peach wood sword on his back, and walked out leisurely.

Today, the Sanying Gang is going to raid the South District. According to the intelligence Shi Yi received, there have been reports of children going missing in the South District recently, and their target is a wealthy family in the South District.

After Su Rui and the Three Heroes Gang gathered at Shi Yi's courtyard, they headed straight for the family's compound. However, this time, Su Rui had a strategy: Shi Yi would disguise himself as a passing child and find an excuse to enter the courtyard as a test, while the rest of the gang would lurk nearby, confirming the situation before charging in.

The southern area is located inside the city wall near the Shiwanda Mountains.

Shi Yi was walking alone on a deserted road, holding a bundle and a piece of dogtail grass in his mouth.

Both sides of the avenue are basically deserted huts, which are overgrown with lush weeds and wild trees, and look very desolate. But at the corner, there is a courtyard with red walls and green tiles. It is the only one in the entire area that seems to be somewhat popular.

Shi Yi slowly walked to the front of the courtyard, paused intentionally, and leaned against a nearby tree pretending to rest.

Sure enough, the courtyard gate opened soon and a suspicious-looking servant walked out.
