A young man in China wields twin swords—one to sever souls, the other to slay evil. Though a bit lacking in morals, he’s not entirely beyond redemption.
With his half-demon heritage, he carve...
After a moment of silence, the live stream audience began flooding the chat with comments.
Some expressed shock, while others expressed confusion:
"So, has the Ten-Mile Ghost Nightmare submitted to the Feng family?"
Why didn't the Feng family kill this demon?
"After all, they're not spirit masters; the demon race is their kin..."
No one expected that the Ten-Mile Ghost Nightmare would appear here.
They never expected it to appear in this form.
This is completely different from the ten-mile-long nightmare they had heard about.
After the battle of the capital, all sorts of rumors spread like wildfire, describing just how terrifying the Ten-Mile Ghost Nightmare was...
Is this terrifying?
He seems like a bratty little brother!
Yan Dingyun looked at the wind chimes, then closed her eyes and took a deep breath.
According to the law, the Ten-Mile Ghost Nightmare has committed a grave crime!
Not only did the Ling Shu Pavilion not arrest them, but now the Feng family has openly brought them out.
The world will surely have its own opinions.
He didn't believe that Fengling hadn't thought of this; he suspected that Fengling had done it on purpose!
From being late, appearing as soon as the camera was turned on, to the Ten Mile Ghost Nightmare, and the Yin-Yang Realm being set up inside the Ling Shu Pavilion, everything was intentional.
For Yan Dingyun, this was tantamount to putting the Ling Shu Pavilion's face on the ground and rubbing it wildly.
He was so angry that his veins bulged and his back teeth almost ground to powder.
But I still silently recited in my heart:
Forget it... just bear with it and it will pass. China is currently facing internal and external troubles, and we can't afford to have any more conflict with the Feng family.
So he began to speak:
"Well then, now that everyone's here, let's begin."
After he finished speaking, everyone came to their senses and looked at him.
Before that, he needs to explain why the Ten-Mile Ghost Nightmare has appeared here.
When Yan Dingyun failed to bring back the Ten Mile Ghost Nightmare after sending people last time, he had already come up with a reason.
"Let's talk about how to deal with the Ten-Mile Nightmare for now."
"Since the Feng family was not originally on the list of spirit masters dispatched for the battle against demons in the capital, the Feng family captured Shili Guiyan and went through the bounty process. However, since Shili Guiyan has not yet been rated, the bounty is pending and the specific amount still needs to be discussed. Therefore, the Feng family will temporarily take charge of the capture. Once the amount is determined, it will be made public."
This explains why Shili Guiyan is still in the Feng family, and also indicates that Shili Guiyan will definitely be brought to justice in the future, so everyone shouldn't worry.
At the same time, a line was drawn: the relationship between Ling Shu Pavilion and the Feng family was merely one of mutual benefit.
If it's just a matter of self-interest, then everyone can understand it easily.
In this way, more people will be able to accept it.
"My fellow meritorious officials, do you have any objections?"
Yan Dingyun asked, "These are just kids. They're here to receive awards. What objections could they possibly have?"
"I have!"
The wind chime suddenly spoke.
Yan Dingyun's lips twitched, his inner thoughts:
Blanch!
We finally managed to smooth things over, and now you're going to cause trouble again, huh?
Everyone looked at the wind chimes in surprise.
Do you have any objections...?
Yan Dingyun's voice trembled slightly with anger.
"It's nothing major. I just wanted to ask how the food, lodging, and guarding fees for this guy will be calculated before the amount is agreed upon."
Everyone: ? ? ?
“Food and lodging costs are minor expenses, but we need to clarify the custody fee beforehand. After all, I’m so scared of this guy being in my house that I can’t sleep at night. Ever since he was brought back, I’ve been having nightmares every day and I’m almost having a nervous breakdown. I have to have my Tianya watch over him every day, but we have other things to do, and this has caused us to miss a lot of things. We also need to add a lost wages fee. What do you think?”
The world: ? ? ?
you?
Are you too scared to sleep?
We almost believed it.
Oh... I see, you're here to rob me, right?
No one had ever heard of such a fee after capturing a monster.
As Yan Dingyun listened, his eyes turned murderous.
However, he suppressed his anger and said calmly:
"Well, since you brought the Ten-Mile Ghost Nightmare, we'll entrust it to our Ling Shu Pavilion for safekeeping for now."
"That won't do. In the end, it's because you're too slow. The Ten Mile Ghost Nightmare has been on the bounty list for so long, but there's still no reward. It's hard to convince people of the Ling Shu Pavilion's credibility and authority. When problems arise, we need to address them at their root, instead of always trying to take shortcuts."
Feng Ling remained all smiles, while Yan Dingyun looked at him with somewhat cold eyes. This guy... Their gazes met across the distance.
A sixth-order mad spirit and a sixth-order earth spirit master, and a ninth-order spirit communication master.
The five members of the Feng family felt Yan Dingyun's gaze and immediately looked over in unison.
His face clearly said:
What are you looking at?
Should we take another look and try?
Believe it or not, I'll punch you!
At this moment, no one dared to speak, and the atmosphere immediately became tense.
Yan Dingyun, of course, wouldn't let Fengling say whatever she wanted, and immediately said:
"Regarding the reward law, Article 390 stipulates that the party accepting the reward indicates their willingness to assume the risk, including but not limited to personal injury or death. No compensation will be provided. The party issuing the reward only needs to pay the reward amount."
This regulation is designed to prevent people like Fengling from making exorbitant demands.
Someone once captured a demon that wasn't particularly strong, but demanded a bunch of extra fees, even higher than the bounty.
The Ling Shu Pavilion held an emergency meeting overnight and added this regulation.
Of course, most importantly, Yan Dingyun had memorized all the regulations and could recite them fluently.
Upon hearing this, Feng Ling smiled and said:
