"My Lord, should we take action?"

The young man in Confucian robes walked up to Huo Qubing and his expression gradually became serious.

"I am entrusted by the emperor to protect the people. Whether it is the Xiongnu in the north or the evil spirits in the Han land, they are all enemies of the people. Since I am here today, I cannot sit idly by." Huo Qubing said calmly, "The extraordinary power given to us by God should be used for the people to protect all living beings."

"cut."

A disdainful voice came from the corner, and the female prisoner sneered, "Protect all living beings? This world is so big, how can you protect all living beings with just a few of you?"

"Even if we cannot protect all the people, we should still try our best instead of being a monster that brings disaster to the world like you!" The deputy general was furious. He drew the scimitar from his waist and pointed at the female prisoner's nose.

Huo Qubing stood by the window and glanced back at the female prisoner.

"This time when I return to the capital, I will petition His Majesty to gather extraordinary people from all over the world to set up a government office dedicated to suppressing evil spirits. Since it may not be feasible with the power of just a few of us, then I will borrow the power of the world."

The female prisoner snorted coldly and avoided Huo Qubing's gaze.

"My Lord, an evil spirit has appeared." The scholar said in a deep voice, "Should we go separately? Or..."

"No need to do that." Huo Qubing's voice was extremely calm. "The whole city is dark now, only this restaurant is brightly lit. There is no need for us to go looking for them... they will naturally come to die."

…

The night deepens.

A series of low roars came from the dim city wall, like the howling of wolves, but with an inexplicable creepiness.

In the simple front hall of the clinic, Lin Qiye, who was sitting cross-legged on the table, slowly opened his eyes.

The reddish starlight fell to the ground through the gaps between the tightly closed doors and windows. Lin Qiye listened to the old man's advice and did not light the candle. After all, this was his first day in this dynasty and he was extremely unfamiliar with everything here, so it was better to be cautious.

He quietly turned over the table and looked out through the gap in the tightly closed door.

Under the dim starlight, a series of afterimages passed over the opposite eaves and rushed rapidly towards the only bright restaurant in the city. Several broken tiles slid down the eaves and shattered on the ground, scaring the people in the house to scream. Then, as if someone was covering their mouths, the screams stopped abruptly.

"It is indeed a 'mysterious'... But this number is too much, isn't it?"

Through the crack in the door, Lin Qiye saw the afterimages. He had known that there were "mysterious" beings in ancient Daxia, but he had not expected them to be so rampant. They were actually running around on people's roofs so brazenly, and there were at least four or five of them on this street alone.

Lin Qiye roughly estimated that there are at least thirty "mysterious" beings in this city. If it is like this inside the city, what will it be like outside the city?

No wonder every household here closes their doors and windows very early, and most of the pedestrians during the day look haggard and as if they are suffering from neurasthenia.

Lin Qiye looked in the direction where the "mysterious" creature was rushing, and saw a figure easily climbing to the roof of the brightly lit restaurant. He held a sword in his hand and proudly looked down at the afterimages of monsters that were surging like a tide around him, releasing the mental pressure of the "Klein" realm.

Lin Qiye had seen that man during the day. He was Huo Qubing's deputy general. However, he did not expect that the other party was also the owner of the Forbidden Ruins.

According to the information Lin Qiye had learned, the Western Han Dynasty should be the era when the first owners of the Forbidden Ruins appeared. The most representative figure among them was the first ceiling of mankind, Champion Marquis Huo Qubing... But at that time, there should be very few owners of the Forbidden Ruins.

Could it be that the Bureau of Suppressing Evil has been established now?

Lin Qiye turned his head to look at Wuquan who was unconscious on the sickbed, and a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes!

If Wuquan's injury is treated with ordinary methods, it will take half a year to heal. But if there is an owner of the Forbidden Ruins who is good at treatment, it will be different... If the Evil Suppression Bureau has been established now, there must be such a person around Huo Qubing.

Thinking of this, he took down a black robe that belonged to someone unknown from the wall, found a bamboo hat under the medicine cabinet, quietly pushed open the wooden door of the clinic, and walked towards the restaurant following the shadows.

…

"One, two, three... thirty-eight, thirty-nine, forty." The deputy general stood on the roof, his eyes sweeping over the shadows that kept approaching one by one. "That's right, a total of forty, we each have half."

"Who will share half with you?"

The scholar in Confucian robes climbed up to the rooftop slowly, his robe swaying in the wind. "Whoever kills faster and more will own it."

The deputy general looked at him in surprise and said, "Normally you would be lazy about this kind of thing. Why are you suddenly so active today?"

The scholar smiled mysteriously.

"Just now, the Marquis said that after returning to the capital this time, he would ask the emperor to establish a yamen to accommodate extraordinary people... The chief of this yamen must be the Marquis, so who do you think should be the deputy chief?"

Hearing this, the deputy general suddenly realized what was going on. He slapped his thigh and said, "You are so good, Yan Zhong! You want to snatch the position of deputy commander from me?!"

"What do you mean by snatching? How the position of deputy director is arranged is entirely up to the Marquis. I just seized the opportunity to show myself." The scholar in Confucian clothing put his hands behind his back, with white satin fluttering, like a literary sage, and his character was fully revealed in the cold wind!

"Pooh!"

The deputy general glanced at him with disdain, a hint of black climbed up the scimitar in his hand, and a terrifying destructive force poured out!

"By the way, I recently gave this forbidden ruins a name. Would you like to hear it?" The deputy general turned around and asked, holding a black scimitar in his hand.

"You are a rough man, what good name can you come up with?" The scholar raised his chin, "Tell me about it, I can polish it for you."

The deputy general slowly raised the black scimitar in his hand. A bright cold light flashed in his eyes. The corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he spoke word by word:

“Black. Moon. Slash!!”

Song——!!

A black crescent dozens of meters long suddenly swept across the night sky and instantly chopped the three "mysterious" bodies that were whistling towards it into pieces. The black light devoured their remains and turned into a blood rain, floating above the brightly lit restaurant.

Phew!

The scholar couldn't help but laugh, "Black Moon Slash? Only you, Zhan Yuwu, could come up with such an ugly name!"

The deputy general gritted his teeth and said viciously, "Then you pick one?"

The scholar thought for a moment and said aloud: "The knife is like a crescent moon, annihilating all living things... Why not call it [annihilating all living things and shining the moon]!"
