Chapter 96: Bodhi Fruit, I am insulting you
"What case is it? Do demon hunters also take care of the case?"
Wei Fan and Long Xueyi changed their appearance and walked out of the Demon Suppression Division. Wei Fan looked at the direction and it seemed that they were heading out of the city.
The real prison of the Demon Suppression Division was built outside the city, and there were always generals higher than the rank of captain stationed there. However, Wei Fan had never been to that place and didn't know where it was.
Ordinary people are not qualified to know where the Demon Suppression Bureau’s prison is.
Those imprisoned there are all serious criminals or some big demons. For example, the old leader of the Divine Sword Sect is imprisoned in the Demon Suppression Prison.
It is such an important place that its location would not be easily made known to others.
Long Xueyi said: “Demon hunters can take care of anything they are interested in, they don’t necessarily have to go to the deep mountains and forests to track down monsters.
Except that we do not hold power and lead troops, our power is even higher than that of a captain.
This time, a lieutenant named Luo Hongyuan who had committed a crime a few years ago escaped from prison, and I want to catch this guy."
Wei Fan was a little surprised.
Although he had never been to the real prison of the Demon Suppression Bureau, even the God-level Martial Arts Masters were imprisoned there, so the defense force must be terrifying.
It takes extraordinary ability to escape from prison.
Long Xueyi shook her head: "It's not as exaggerated as you think. Although there are martial masters in the divine realm and great monsters in the divine realm imprisoned in the prison, they are not in the same area, and the forces restricting them are also different.
The fact that this lieutenant was able to escape must be due to the help of someone inside, otherwise how could a lieutenant escape from a place where even a Divine Realm Martial Master could be imprisoned? "
Wei Fan nodded slightly. Even among the captains of the Demon Suppression Division, not everyone was upright and honest. Dirty things could be found everywhere.
It’s just that the fact that there’s no accountability, or the main culprit hasn’t been found, is somewhat intriguing, and it’s no wonder that things have turned into the hands of the witcher.
"We captured a few jailers and demon-suppressing guards, but they all ran away. It was useless to capture them. As for whether they had accomplices, we haven't found out yet."
Long Xueyi gathered her temples and said, "This is actually an internal matter of the Demon Suppression Division, but Mr. Huo told me that this guy's crime is a bit strange."
Wei Fan found that she somewhat liked this action.
Even after changing his appearance, he couldn't change this habit.
He did not remind her. As he was not familiar with her, he could not find out Long Xueyi's habit. "What's so strange?"
Long Xueyi said: "Back then, Luo Hongyuan was a captain who was in charge of guarding a Dan Ning monster that sat in a temple. But one day, the monster killed all the people who believed in it. As a captain, this guy didn't even try to stop it.
Don't you think it's strange? A lieutenant watched the demons slaughtering civilians without doing anything. But afterwards he didn't run away or explain the reason, and he turned himself in.
Because of his merits, he was not beheaded but was imprisoned.
After Mr. Huo reminded me, I checked again. The Ningdan monster said that it killed someone and then ran away, but since then, the monster has never appeared again and seems to be dead.
Moreover, the files recorded that the monster did not eat humans, and the bodies of all the people killed were intact.
A great demon kills people but does not eat them. Is he crazy not to continue to be his own god? "
Something is indeed wrong! Long Xueyi looked back at Wei Fan: "Under Mr. Huo's guidance, I continued to look through the files in depth. Guess what I found?"
Wei Fan was a little surprised that Long Xueyi, with her cold personality, was actually playing a guessing game with him. He immediately cooperated and asked, "What did you find out?"
"I read the files in depth and found that the big demon had a Bodhi fruit plant at that time. It sat in the temple to speed up the ripening of the Bodhi fruit."
“…”
As soon as Long Xueyi saw Wei Fan's expression, she immediately realized that he didn't know what the Bodhi fruit was, and explained, "The Bodhi fruit is a rare divine object that can open up wisdom and increase understanding. It is something that warriors would risk their lives to obtain."
It turned out to be something that could improve wisdom and understanding. Wei Fan finally understood why Long Xueyi was interested in this case. This Bodhi fruit should still be there.
"The Bodhi fruit should still be there. The file does not say where the Bodhi fruit went after the great demon died. I calculated based on the time. If the Bodhi fruit plant was still there, it should have matured recently."
The Bodhi fruit disappeared, and Luo Hongyuan escaped from prison just when the Bodhi fruit was about to mature. How could such a coincidence happen?
The fact that this guy was not beheaded back then was most likely the result of a multi-party game.
Long Xueyi is not the only smart person.
She was able to discover clues through the files. Other masters from the Demon Suppression Bureau who were involved in the case that year probably knew more than she did.
This means that when Luo Hongyuan escaped this time, it was possible that more than just him and Long Xueyi were eyeing the Bodhi Fruit.
Wei Fan asked, "Will the Divine Realm Martial Sect not get involved?"
If a martial master from the divine realm were to get involved, the Bodhi fruit would probably have nothing to do with them.
Any martial artist in the Divine Realm would be attracted to this kind of thing that can improve one's comprehension, and no one would complain about their high comprehension level.
When one reaches the realm of the Divine Realm Martial Master, comprehension is particularly important.
Long Xueyi shook her head: "Bodhi fruit is only useful for warriors below the Divine Realm Martial Sect. If it is useful for everyone, the Divine Realm Martial Sect is not good enough."
As they were talking, the two men walked out of the city gate and walked for about half an hour, passing through a dense forest. A mountain came into sight. There were several stone houses at the foot of the mountain, but no human figures were seen.
However, when they got closer, several strong men holding swords from the Demon Suppression Bureau walked out of the stone house and surrounded the two with unfriendly looks.
Long Xueyi stopped and took out the demon hunter's badge: "We are demon hunters. We are here to collect Luo Hongyuan's aura so that we can hunt him down. Please give us some help!"
A bearded man shook his head and said, "It's too naive for you two to enter this prison with just a badge. Please go back. The Demon Suppression Guards will handle Luo Hongyuan's matter."
Long Xueyi hadn't realized that these people were deliberately making things difficult for her, so she immediately said, "You can check whether our badges are real or not. If you don't recognize them, you can ask the captain or lieutenant guarding this place to identify them."
"Our captain is busy, so you two should leave as soon as possible. If you stay in this prison for too long, we have the right to arrest or kill you."
Several people drew their knives together to intimidate Long Xueyi and Wei Fan.
She finally understood that these people were deliberately making things difficult for her and not letting her go to jail. Otherwise, several demon-suppressing guards would not have the courage to draw their swords against the demon hunter.
Wei Fan watched coldly. It seemed that he was right. They were not the only ones targeting Luo Hongyuan.
When a demon hunter is doing something, a few demon-suppressing guards dare to stop him. It would be strange if there is no one backing them up.
They were too lazy to even verify the badge or report it. Not to mention that it was just a demon hunter's badge, even if they took the demon-suppressing lieutenant general's badge, it would be useless.
Long Xueyi's eyes immediately turned cold: "If you stop the demon hunter from doing his job, I also have the right to kill you. I will give you one last chance. Let Lin Cheng come to see me."
Lin Cheng was the lieutenant general guarding the prison, and his authority was even higher than that of a colonel.
The expressions of several demon-suppressing guards changed. Long Xueyi was right. The demon hunter did have the right to kill them.
The most important thing is that they are all just cave warriors, while demon hunters are at least celestial warriors, they are not on the same level at all.
Seeing that the others still did not take any action, Long Xueyi walked forward.
Just after taking two steps, a man in a captain's armor came out of a stone house next to him and said, "Stop, if you dare to come forward again, I will punish you for trespassing."
He held a rifle in his hand, and exuded the aura of a celestial martial artist, causing the power of heaven and earth around him to fluctuate. "Demon hunters can run rampant in other places, but not in the prison. If you want to enter the prison, go find the commander or lieutenant general to ask for a written order first."
By the time you go to the commander or lieutenant general to ask for the imperial edict, it will be too late.
Long Xueyi stopped talking nonsense. If she wouldn't listen no matter what she said, then she had to suppress her with force.
She took a step forward, and the sword intent erupted like a volcano, causing the power of heaven and earth to fluctuate.
In an instant, the captain and several demon-suppressing guards felt a sharp pain in their hearts, as if their hearts were about to break apart.
The sword flashed, and the blade slammed out, sending the captain flying backwards helplessly, collapsing the stone house behind him and revealing a deep tunnel.
He was only at the seventh level of Heavenly Man, and was not a genius like Zhang Xianlong. He could not withstand even a single move from Long Xueyi. He could no longer hold the spear in his hand, and there was a mark of explosion on his chest.
If Long Xueyi hadn't held back, he would have been split in half.
Several demon-suppressing guards were horrified. Some wanted to step forward and take action, but they suddenly felt their whole bodies sink, as if a huge rock was pressing on them.
"You better not move!"
A terrifying aura emanated from Wei Fan, which frightened several Demon Suppression Guards so much that they stood there in a daze.
"Can we go in now?"
Long Xueyi glanced coldly at the captain who had stood up again. The captain looked at her in shock: "Who are you?"
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
He is at the seventh level of Heavenly Man, not the seventh level of Acupuncture. He defeated me with one move, but he was holding back.
Such people are the top among the demon hunters and it is impossible for them to be unknown.
Long Xueyi shook her head: "You are not qualified to know our identities!"
Boom! A violent whistle suddenly sounded in the tunnel, and a halberd hit Long Xueyi like a mad dragon, shaking the tunnel.
She quickly dodged and the halberd smashed the ground, tearing a crack more than ten meters long in the ground.
"General Lin Cheng!"
A hint of coldness flashed in Long Xueyi's eyes. She swung her sword, and thousands of sword beams rained down on the figure behind the halberd.
The figure swept the halberd in his hand, shattering thousands of sword beams. A domineering aura surged out, raising a huge cloud of dust.
The next moment, the halberd broke through the smoke and dust and chopped Long Xueyi again.
The domineering halberd was not weaker than Long Xueyi's cultivation level, but it made her seem a little overwhelmed to deal with it. She retreated again to avoid the halberd.
Suddenly, the halberd stopped and was firmly grasped by a strong hand.
Lin Cheng took a breath. The force of millions of pounds from his halberd was actually caught by someone with bare hands.
"It's just a sneak attack to bully a woman. I'm here to play with you!"
As the voice sounded, the shadow of a dragon and elephant appeared on Wei Fan's body.
He pulled hard, pulled the lieutenant Lin Cheng out of the smoke and dust, and then punched him out.
The overbearing force seemed to blow the air away before it could even make a sound.
Lin Cheng's pupils contracted violently. He was a rare person who had practiced physical cultivation. For his physical power, he had given up all the fancy things and only pursued strength.
He didn't expect that two demon hunters would come. The most terrifying one was not the woman, but the man who had remained silent. Like himself, the other party was also a person who had practiced body cultivation.
In a hurry, he stretched out his other hand to block, but he felt an irresistible force like a tidal wave, which blasted his arm back and hit him heavily.
The intense force forced him to let go of the halberd in his hand and fly backwards to create distance between him and the man.
However, just as he let go of his halberd, he saw the man appear above him, with the shadows of a dragon and an elephant wrapped around him, chopping him on the head with his halberd.
"Dragon Elephant Sky-lifting Technique!"
As this thought came to his mind, his energy and blood surged out wildly to block the halberd's attack.
The halberd easily tore through the energy of blood, and Lin Cheng hurriedly stretched out his hands to grab the halberd.
He did catch it, but the terrifying power was still above him, a person on the ninth level of heaven, and his body was smashed to the ground by the halberd.
In an instant, the ground surged up like a lake, forming a big pit in an instant.
Click…
At this time, his hands could no longer hold the halberd, and it dropped limply like a noodle.
"You can't kill him!"
Long Xueyi's voice rang out, and the halberd stopped just in front of Lin Cheng's face.
She looked horrified.
Although he was at a disadvantage due to Lin Cheng's surprise attack, he knew the abilities of this veteran general.
With her extraordinary body cultivation and domineering halberd skills, it is impossible for her to defeat the opponent in just a few moves even in a head-on fight.
And as a bystander, she also had time to feel Wei Fan's cultivation.
Compared to when he was in Donglin City, this guy's body refining skills have improved from the first level to the third level. This speed is simply terrifying.
Wei Fan raised his foot and stepped on Lin Cheng's head, pressing his halberd against his throat. "Any other masters in this prison? Call them out so I can see them."
The captain and several demon-suppressing guards were already stunned.
Lieutenant General Lin Cheng is definitely a master among his peers, otherwise he would not come to guard such an important place as the prison.
Lin Cheng's eyes turned red: "How dare you insult me?"
As a lieutenant general, he had been defeated before, but this was the first time that his head was stepped on by someone.
Wei Fan's expression was cold: "Yeah, you just realized that I was insulting you?"
If the panel hadn't given a prompt, the other person's head would have fallen to the ground long ago.
As he spoke, he put a little more force on his feet and pressed Lin Cheng's head directly into the ground, leaving a large footprint.
When he raised his head from the ground, Lin Cheng looked at Wei Fan with cold eyes: "You dare to cause trouble in the prison, just wait for your punishment. Do you really think that no one can control you demon hunters? Demon hunters can't do whatever they want."
The halberd was raised and whipped down, causing Lin Cheng to scream in pain.
Wei Fan said coldly: "Deal with us? You should take care of yourself first. If you stop the demon hunter from doing his job, I'll see how many heads you have left to chop off."
Lin Cheng said nothing more.
He knew clearly who broke the rules first today, and he knew better than anyone who would suffer more serious consequences if he reported it to the higher-ups.
The only thing he miscalculated was that the two demon hunters who came were not the kind that he could control at will, but extremely terrifying dragons crossing the river.
