The demon-suppressing guards were startled and quickly took a step back, afraid that the round head would hit them.
"Commander Zhang..."
The remaining four cried out in alarm. One of them quickly picked up the head and shouted angrily, "You two must die for killing Commander Zhang Shuo!"
Zhang Shuo!
The commander of the guards in the Great Zhou Imperial Palace, with dozens of men under his command.
"Just a minor commander? I'm nothing more!"
After speaking, Shen Yuyan glanced at Lan Hua, seemingly seeking his opinion.
Lan Hua blinked innocently, and placed her right hand on the bowstring again.
Killing one person is killing, and killing five people is also killing.
Lan Hua's eyes turned cold instantly. She drew her bow fully and fired another arrow, piercing the heart of a man.
The imperial guard who had been holding Zhang Shuo's head threw it away and ran away.
But a red whip followed behind him, piercing his body like a venomous snake's tongue.
Seeing Commander Shen and Lan Hua join forces to wreak havoc, the members of the Demon Suppression Guard were terrified and hurriedly ran towards the Demon Suppression Division.
"It's none of my business, I didn't see anything!"
"I didn't even leave the city gate today!"
Seeing the remaining two guards walk away, Shen Yuyan asked, "Chase them, or not?"
"No need to chase!"
Lan Hua's face turned cold. She nocked two iron arrows on the bowstring, and with a flash of light, she fired both arrows at the same time.
A moment later, two screams rang out, and the two who had been fleeing fell silent.
Shen Yuyan gave a bitter smile, "I've offended the people in the palace. It seems I really have to run away now!"
Lan Hua laughed and said, "You're all alone, so go ahead and run away!"
Shen Yuyan put away the whip, wrapped it around her slender waist, and fiddled with her hair.
"Why did you have to get involved in this mess? Now look what happened, you've gotten yourself into it too!"
Lan Hua put away her bow and smiled, "Although we haven't known each other for very long, we're still friends!"
"I saved your life last time. If I don't save you this time, wouldn't it be a waste of my time to save you last time?"
Shen Yuyan covered her mouth and smiled, "What you said makes a lot of sense!"
With the palace guards killed, the two lost interest in capturing the monsters and simply returned to the Demon Suppression Bureau.
Long Yifei already knew about this and was just waiting for the two of them to return.
He said with a cold expression, "You really know how to cause trouble for me. Do you even know how much trouble you've gotten yourself into?"
"Know!"
Shen Yuyan nodded slightly, while Lan Hua remained indifferent.
Long Yifei had a sour face and gritted his teeth in hatred at the sight of the two of them looking so lifeless.
Shen Yuyan laughed and said, "Boss Long, given the current situation, should I run away?"
Long Yifei said, "It hasn't come to that yet. Those guards are acting without any regard for right or wrong; someone must be behind it!"
"Besides, these guards arrested you without authorization, which violated their duties. I will take responsibility for this!"
"You should lay low for the next few days and not leave the Demon Suppression Division!"
Shen Yuyan smiled and said, "Okay!"
Lan Hua stayed in the dilapidated Demon Suppression Bureau for five days.
For the next five days, everything was peaceful.
That night, Lan Hua, having nothing to do, went for a stroll near the Demon Suppression Tower.
Suddenly a white shadow swept through the pile of rubble at an extremely fast speed.
If Lan Hua hadn't cultivated the extraordinary skill of clairvoyance, he wouldn't have been able to discover it at all.
Lan Hua remained calm and continued strolling around. After turning a corner of the house, she immediately began to follow the white figure.
The white figure arrived at the main gate of the Demon Suppression Tower and hid behind the Demon Suppression Guards who were guarding the gate.
Lan Hua looked closely and realized that the white figure was none other than a fox.
However, this fox was somewhat special; it had three tails.
"What breed of fox is this? Why does it have so many tails?" Lan Hua asked curiously.
The white fox subtly wiggled its rear end, facing the two guards of the Demon-Suppressing Tower.
"What's that smell? It stinks!"
"Old Li, did you fart? You didn't even tell me beforehand!"
"How is that possible!"
"I was wondering if it was you who farted!"
After muttering a few words, the two touched their heads, slowly collapsed to the ground, and lost consciousness.
Lan Hua was stunned.
"That fart is really something!"
He had determined that the white fox was a demon beast with cultivation.
The white fox looked at the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda, wanting to get close to the gate but not daring to, seemingly filled with fear of the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda.
Suddenly, the white fox let out a soft howl towards the top of the tower.
The sound wasn't loud enough to attract the attention of the other demon-suppressing guards.
If Lan Hua hadn't been hiding in the shadows, the people from the Demon Suppression Bureau would have had no idea that a demon beast had broken in.
Long Yifei is away on business today and has not yet returned, while Tan Shuiyue has disappeared.
This three-tailed white fox can indeed do whatever it wants.
After howling for a while, the white fox pricked up its ears, as if listening to something, its eyes occasionally flashing and its teeth bared.
Lan Hua also pricked up her ears, but heard nothing.
He watched the white fox perform quietly until it turned and left.
Lan Hua quickly chased after it, wanting to find out the origin of the white fox.
After leaving the Demon Suppression Bureau, the white fox did not immediately leave the city, perhaps because the city gates were closed and there was no way out.
Lan Hua followed the white fox all the way to a dilapidated temple in the city.
The temple is small, with just a few rooms, and in the middle is the Mahavira Hall, where you can barely make out the four characters.
Just as Lan Hua was hesitating whether to go in and take a look, a voice came from inside.
"Young master, you must be exhausted after following us all this way. Please come in and have a seat."
With a creak, the doors of the main hall opened, revealing a white fox sitting on one of the Buddha's hands.
The white fox was spotless, its tongue lolling out as it groomed its fur.
Lan Hua was very surprised, not only by the white fox's cultivation level, but also by its voice.
It was a woman's voice.
Clearly, this is a female fox!
Lan Hua drew her bow and carried it behind her before stepping into the main hall.
If it can talk, then this white fox must have at least the cultivation level of the Yuan Dan realm, and Lan Hua must be on guard.
"Huh, the temple outside looks really dilapidated, but the inside is surprisingly clean. Did you clean it?"
The white fox said, "That's right, what's your purpose in following me?"
Lan Hua laughed and said, "It was purely out of curiosity. It was the first time I'd ever seen a three-tailed fox, and I couldn't resist!"
The white fox snorted, "Ignorant humans! I am a member of the Nine-Tailed Spirit Fox clan. What's so special about having three tails? Nine tails are what's truly powerful!"
"A nine-tailed spirit fox? I didn't expect that there really is such a species as a nine-tailed fox!"
Lan Hua smiled and said, "I noticed you were acting suspiciously when you entered the Demon Suppression Division. Were you looking for your relatives?"
The white fox's eyes widened. "So you saw everything? Why didn't I notice?"
"Answer my question first!"
The white fox said, "I'm looking for my father; I want to rescue him!"
Lan Hua was somewhat surprised, "The demonic beast sealed at the top of the Demon Suppression Tower, could it be your father?"
"That's right, it's him. He's been sealed away by your Demon Suppression Division for three hundred years!" The white fox said with hatred.
Lan Hua was speechless and immediately distanced herself from the situation.
"I've only been at the Demon Suppression Division for half a month, none of this has anything to do with me!"
The white fox snorted, "You're all the same, you're all birds of a feather!"
