Chapter 97 Demon Hunters are really annoying, the twisted Luo Hongyuan

Lin Cheng looked embarrassed, and was stepped into a big pit by Wei Fan.

A lot of Demon-Suppressing Guards poured out of the tunnel at this moment, including one Demon-Suppressing Guard. However, seeing that Lin Chengdu was under control, they did not dare to take any action.

Long Xueyi walked over and said, "You deliberately stopped us from investigating Luo Hongyuan. It seems that his escape is related to you!"

Lin Cheng said coldly: "Don't throw dirty water on me. It's useless to say things without evidence!"

Long Xueyi sneered: "When did you need solid evidence when the Demon Suppression Division was doing things?"

As she spoke, she took out a silver waist badge, infused it with true energy and mental strength, and sent out a message.

Lin Cheng's expression changed immediately. This demon hunter, whose true identity was unknown, was obviously going to report the matter to the higher-ups: "I advise you to think it over before reporting it."

Although they were wrong, taking action in prison is not a small matter.

You have to know that he is the garrison commander here and has the highest authority. If you take action against him and accidentally cause the demons in the prison to escape, the consequences will be unbearable for ordinary people.

Long Xueyi ignored Lin Cheng. Others might be afraid of such consequences, but she was really not. As the granddaughter of Long Jianying, she had to give face to the three commanders even if they came.

She turned around and looked at the newly appeared captain: "Tie them up."

The captain shook his head: "The Demon Hunter badge only makes him equal to me, and he cannot command me."

He didn't have the courage to kidnap the lieutenant.

Although they were not in the same group, he was committing an insubordination by kidnapping people.

"Really? Then take another look at this badge to see if it has the qualifications to command you!"

Long Xueyi slapped the silver gourd on her waist, and immediately a golden waist badge appeared in her hand.

When the captain saw the badge, his expression changed drastically: "Colonel badge?"

Below his feet, Lin Cheng's expression finally changed at this moment.

The other party came with a lieutenant general's badge but never took it out. It was obvious that he wanted to deal with me before revealing his identity.

It seems that the few scapegoats he arrested did not convince his superiors that he was innocent.

Long Xueyi shook the badge in her hand: "How about it, do you want to verify the authenticity of the badge?"

The captain's expression became solemn, and he clasped his hands and said, "I dare not!"

Then he waved his hand and said to the demon-suppressing guards behind him: "Bring the shackles and tie them all up!"

A demon-suppressing guard returned from the tunnel and quickly brought a pile of shackles, and tied up the previous demon-suppressing guard, the captain, and Lin Chengdu.

"Let me go! I am the garrison commander here. If you tie me up, and something goes wrong in the prison, who among you can take the responsibility?"

Lin Cheng's voice was hoarse and his eyes were red.

Long Xueyi had a blank expression on her face: "You don't have to worry about the prison. A new general will take over soon. Think carefully about how to explain Luo Hongyuan's affairs."

Lin Cheng's expression changed.

Long Xueyi ignored him. The two of them followed the captain and Lin Cheng and others into the tunnel. After walking for a while, a fairly spacious hall appeared in front of them.

This is a hall located in the belly of the mountain. There are iron doors with shining metallic light on several sides. Behind those iron doors, the roars of demons can be heard from time to time.

"I am Cao Pei, may I ask if Your Excellency has any other instructions?"

The captain called himself Cao Pei, a name Wei Fan had never heard of. He just kept looking around the prison.

Those iron doors are all made of black iron. If you take one door outside and sell it for tens of thousands of taels of silver, it would be a piece of cake.

As for what was behind the iron gate, he couldn't see it and didn't know what was going on.

Hearing this, Long Xueyi said, "Lock them up, lock up Lin Cheng's scapula, and ignore the rest. A general will come to deal with them later. Then take us to the cell where Luo Hongyuan is imprisoned. We need to collect his scent."

Cao Pei shook his head: "Luo Hongyuan's aura has been wiped out by Lord Lin. If you go, I'm afraid you won't be able to collect anything."

Long Xueyi's expression changed. Without her breath, it would be difficult to track Luo Hongyuan.

No wonder he had been blocking the two of them from coming in. Even if he was not in the same group with Luo Hongyuan, he was probably eyeing the whereabouts of the Bodhi Fruit.

Under such circumstances, he naturally would not allow others to get involved.

Wei Fan strode forward and grabbed Lin Cheng's hair: "You should have collected Luo Hongyuan's aura, hand it over, don't ask for trouble."

Lin Cheng was in a state of panic. Hearing this, he said stubbornly, "You don't need to torture your own people. Do you think I'm a newcomer? Even if I made a mistake, it was a minor one. Who dares to torture me?"

Wei Fan shook his head: "Torture is not used on one's own people. Unfortunately, we demon hunters and you are not one of us!"

He raised a finger and poked Lin Cheng casually, and immediately a string of blood appeared.

Dragon Roar Sky Shattering Finger! Long Xueyi's eyes widened. Is this martial art for you to use for torture? "Hmph..."

Lin Cheng groaned, his face turning pale with pain.

Wei Fan said expressionlessly: "As a garrison commander, you deliberately let the prisoner go and wiped out his aura. You should know whether it is possible for you to continue to be one of us. That means you still have the skin of a garrison commander. Otherwise, your head would have fallen off before.

You should decide whether to hand it over or not. If you kill a few people in a fierce battle, I will punish you, but it will only deduct some merits, which is not a big problem.

And you want to rely on Luo Hongyuan's aura to find him, do you think you still have a chance to get out?"

As he spoke, Wei Fan pointed again, this time not at a random place, but directly at Lin Cheng's Dantian.

Although he is a person who has mastered physical cultivation, if such an important part as Dantian is damaged, his Qi and blood will be gradually depleted, and it will be difficult for him to make further progress in the future.

"stop!"

Lin Cheng was a little overwhelmed and hurriedly called out to Wei Fan: "You demon hunters are really annoying. You don't follow any rules at all."

Wei Fan smiled and stopped.

The power of a lieutenant general sounds higher than that of a witcher, but above the lieutenant general is the lieutenant general, above the lieutenant general are the three great commanders, above the three great commanders are the commander-in-chief, and above the commander-in-chief there are people as well.

But they are witchers, and they have no one above them, so no one can control them. Even if the commander gives orders, they may not bother to listen if they are in a bad mood.

Killing him is not a big problem for a demon hunter.

Even now, Lin Cheng didn't even know the true identities of Wei Fan and Long Xueyi, so he didn't know who to look for if he broke the rules.

"I will give you Luo Hongyuan's aura. Whether you can find him and obtain the Bodhi fruit depends on whether you have the ability."

Lin Cheng spread out his palms, and a hint of yellowish air floated in his palms.

The art of gathering energy to find demons is not exclusive to demon hunters. If you are willing to sacrifice your merits, you can also exchange them for practice. As for whether you can master it, it all depends on your personal understanding.

"Don't bother with that. You could have just taken it out earlier. Why do you have to suffer this?"

Wei Fan reached out and caught Luo Hongyuan's aura: "What you give me better be real, otherwise you will die ugly!"

"Let's go!"

Leaving Lin Cheng behind, the two of them left the prison directly.

"When the Bodhi fruit matures, it will usually bear three to five fruits. If it's an odd number, I'll take one extra and give you something else as compensation. If it's an even number, we can split it equally. How about that?"

After leaving the prison, Long Xueyi told everyone about the distribution plan.

Wei Fan nodded: "Okay!"

Without Long Xueyi's relationship, he wouldn't know about these things at all. Let alone compensation, even asking for more would be reasonable.

The two began to track the scent left by Luo Hongyuan along the way. One day later, a village that had been abandoned for many years appeared in front of them.

Long Xueyi looked at the village and whispered, "This is the village where the great demon lived back then. Could it be that the Bodhi fruit is still here?"

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

The two continued tracking for a while according to the guidance of the breath, and a valley appeared in front of them.

“Someone!”

On a large protruding rock in the valley, a man was sitting cross-legged with a spear on his legs.

Long Xueyi said: "He is Luo Hongyuan, the Bodhi fruit may be here!"

The two men did not hide their figures and walked straight into the valley.

At this time, Luo Hongyuan also noticed the two people, opened his eyes and looked over: "Finally you are here, I have been waiting for you for a long time! I thought it would be Lin Cheng who came, but it turned out to be two strangers. I don't seem to know you among the lieutenants of the Demon Suppression Division. Are you newly promoted?"

Wei Fan and Long Xueyi's expressions remained unchanged: "You deliberately left so many flaws along the way, and did not hide your aura, just to lure people here?"

The two of them had already noticed something strange.

As a former captain of the Demon Suppression Division, it is impossible that he did not know that there are strange techniques such as the Qi-gathering technique to track demons. As long as Luo Hongyuan is not mentally ill, he would have concealed his aura and erased all traces along the way.

However, the two men were highly skilled and courageous, and were determined to obtain the Bodhi Fruit. Even though Luo Hongyuan was a martial arts master in the Divine Realm, they wanted to try to snatch the food from the tiger's mouth.

Wei Fan didn't know whether Long Xueyi, the granddaughter of the commander of the Demon Suppression Division, had any trump card. He had the Great Sun Golden Bell Cover, and he really wanted to see if the Great Sun Golden Bell Cover could kill a martial arts master in the Divine Realm.

But there is a high probability that there is. A martial master in the divine realm can even refine such magical things as storage, so he should be able to refine some things to protect the body and save life.

Long Jianying's sons and grandsons are all dead, leaving only this granddaughter. It is impossible not to give her something to protect herself.

On the boulder, Luo Hongyuan nodded gently: "Yes, what do you think the Bodhi fruit is? It is a magical object that can improve one's understanding. In the past, the old monster killed thousands of people in the village and watered them with blood, but it did not make the Bodhi fruit mature.

Later we understood that for the Bodhi fruit to mature, it needed real medicine, the blood of a celestial martial artist to water it, and the blood of a true martial arts genius.

No matter how much blood a mediocre person has, it is useless to the Bodhi fruit."

Long Xueyi's eyes turned cold: "Were you involved in the tragedy back then?"

That's thousands of people, not just a few.

These beasts have lost their conscience in order to help the Bodhi fruit mature.

Luo Hongyuan stroked his spear and shook his head, "Wrong! I'm not that inhumane. I just gave the old demon time to kill people. I didn't kill anyone. Otherwise, even if I were a lieutenant, my head would have been chopped off long ago."

Long Xueyi's body trembled a little: "You didn't make a move, but what's the difference between you and the one who made a move? You are really conscienceless."

Luo Hongyuan actually laughed: "I just followed the rules. The Demon Suppression Division doesn't have a rule that killing a demon and not saving him is a capital crime..."

As he spoke, his smile disappeared and became a little distorted: "And those people deserve to die. My Demon Suppression Division has been fighting against demons for many years. I don't know how many brothers have died in the hands of demons. It is to protect their peace and give the human race a bright and peaceful world.

But these idiots don't believe in our Demon Suppression Division, and instead believe in a demon and worship a demon as a god. Shouldn't these idiots be kept alive to waste food and the Demon Suppression Division's manpower?

They are just leeks raised by demons, so let's make good use of them.

Their death will not only help the Bodhi fruit mature, but will also free up some manpower to protect those who really need protection. Don’t you think this is good?”

Long Xueyi was a little stunned.

In fact, in the Demon Suppression Bureau, many people hate those who believe that demons are gods.

Those demons clearly kept them in captivity and raised them like pigs, but they regarded them as gods and knelt before them devoutly.

The people from the Demon Suppression Division who really cared about their lives were treated like enemies and were guarded against and even hated.

In fact, many people are reluctant to protect such people.

Wei Fan had a blank expression on his face: "So this is your reason for colluding with the demons? No matter how high-sounding your excuse is, it can't cover up the fact that you colluded with the demons."

Naturally, he would not be shaken by Luo Hongyuan's words.

Because he had long understood that the battle between humans and demons was not a simple fight.

The most important thing is that for him, killing Luo Hongyuan will not only allow him to obtain the Bodhi fruit, but also increase his power, which is enough.

Luo Hongyuan shook his head: "If you say collusion, then collusion. If using the lives of some trash can make me a martial master in the divine realm and protect more people in need, I, Luo Hongyuan, don't care about being branded as colluding with demons."

Wei Fan showed a mocking expression: "What about us? We are not those damned people who believe that demons are gods. You lured us to kill. This is what you call protecting more people who need protection."

Luo Hongyuan's face changed slightly, and he took a deep breath: "Sacrifice is always necessary. If a few demon-suppressing guards don't die one day, you can just think of them as dying in the battle with the demons. When your blood waters the Bodhi fruit and it matures, and I become a martial arts master in the divine realm, how many more demons can I kill?

By then, not to mention sacrificing just the two of you, it would be worth it even if we sacrifice the lives of twenty people.

And this is not my fault. I originally wanted to kill Lin Cheng, and he is not a good guy either. Who asked you to interfere in this matter? You are just unlucky. "

As he spoke, he stood up from the protruding stone, spear in hand, and the power of heaven and earth began to fluctuate.

After such a long time, it is time for the Bodhi fruit to mature.

Regardless of whether these two people are innocent or not, they can only become nutrients for watering the Bodhi fruit: "I'm afraid you are not innocent either. Lin Cheng didn't come, but you did. I guessed right, you are also spying on the Bodhi fruit!"

Wei Fan nodded, and did not try to change Luo Hongyuan's twisted thoughts, and they were indeed peeping at the Bodhi fruit: "So where is the Bodhi fruit?"

Luo Hongyuan pointed to the depths of the valley and said, "The Bodhi fruit is in that cave. Any other questions? If not, let's get going."

Wei Fan looked carefully and found that there was indeed an inconspicuous cave deep in the valley. "One last question. If I use your blood, can it ripen the Bodhi fruit?"
