Lan Hua sat down again, wanting to see what the outcome would be.
As expected, the diner was indeed a eunuch who, having rarely been out on business, had come to Longshengju to enjoy a hearty meal.
"How dare you! Do you know who I am? I am Wang Xiaobo, a eunuch in the palace!"
"I don't care who you are or which transgender family you're from, I'm going to teach you a lesson today!"
Shen Yuyan used her fists and feet to beat the eunuch until he cried out for his parents.
Perhaps she was tired from fighting, Shen Yuyan stopped and walked towards the main hall outside.
Before she even left the private room, the eunuch, oblivious to her own danger, asked again, "Who are you? How dare you leave your name?"
Shen Yuyan swung her hand back, sending a gust of wind flying and knocking the eunuch away.
"I am Shen Yuyan. If you have the guts, go to the Demon Suppression Bureau and demand my release!"
After saying that, he walked towards the main street. When he passed Lanhua, he seemed a little surprised and stopped slightly.
What are you doing here?
Lan Hua gave an awkward smile, "I didn't eat breakfast this morning, so I came here to find something to eat. Is that not allowed?"
Shen Yuyan gave a slight snort, as if to say that she was just like her, then picked up the peanuts on the table and walked towards the street.
Those were peanuts that Lan Hua ordered, seasoned with oil and salt, and they tasted good.
Lan Hua hurriedly chased after her; having eaten his peanuts for free, she naturally couldn't let her leave just like that.
"Miss Chen, that eunuch is from the palace. Aren't you afraid he might have some powerful connections and come after you later?"
"What's there to be afraid of!"
Shen Yuyan tossed a peanut into her mouth. "I'm all alone. If I can win, I'll fight; if I can't, I'll run. Anyway, this Demon Suppression Division is just a temporary place for me to stay!"
"By the way, I see you're quite young but have impressive cultivation. Which sect or school did you follow?"
Lan Hua shook her head, "I belong to no sect or school, I am just a rogue cultivator!"
"A rogue cultivator, huh? That's just like me! Then there's even less to worry about!" Shen Yuyan said casually.
Lan Hua nodded, "That's true!"
The two strolled around the bustling streets for a long time. Shen Yuyan seemed to quickly forget her earlier unhappiness and revert to her girlish nature.
She would look at every single stall on the street, without getting tired of it.
I also bought a lot of things for the girl's family.
Lan Hua became her servant, carrying all the things Shen Yuyan bought.
A bellyband, a rouge box, a close-fitting short skirt...
Lan Hua didn't show any impatience and obediently followed behind her, thinking to herself that it was only right for a newcomer to serve an elder.
Just as the two were about to return to the Demon Suppression Division, a group of people stopped them, or more precisely, they were targeting Shen Yuyan.
The leader tilted his head and said, "Is she Shen Yuyan?"
Behind him, a figure emerged—it was Wang Xiaobo, the eunuch who had been brutally beaten by Shen Yuyan earlier. Now, with a pig's head swaying, Lan Hua almost didn't recognize him.
"It's him! Guard Geng, you must avenge me!"
Geng, the guard, said flippantly, "You're quite good-looking, but your complexion isn't rosy enough. Why don't you come with me, and I'll give you a little boost!"
The crowd behind him burst into laughter, looking impatient.
"Get out of the way!" Shen Yuyan said coldly.
"No way! You'd better come back with me!"
Geng, the guard, stretched out his hand and grabbed Shen Yuyan's shoulder, but she easily dodged it.
Shen Yuyan said "You're courting death," and then untied something from her waist—a red whip.
The whip seemed to blend seamlessly with her red dress, emanating a faint red aura that Lan Hua hadn't even noticed before.
"Good whip, this weapon is of a high grade!"
He obediently stepped back a few paces to avoid disturbing Shen Yuyan's performance, and then became one of the onlookers.
"Keep going, girl! Don't give in to evil forces!"
"That's right, that guy surnamed Geng is usually so arrogant, let's teach him a lesson!"
Shen Yuyan flicked her right hand, and a terrifying layer of Yuan energy covered the surface of the red whip. When she swung it, it was like a long dragon.
It hit the ground, making a series of terrifying sounds.
That Guard Geng's cultivation was decent enough to be used for guarding the house, but he immediately wilted when he encountered Shen Yuyan.
That whip was something she used specifically to subdue demonic beasts; its power should not be underestimated.
After several rounds, everyone, including the eunuch who had called for reinforcements, was lying on the ground.
Shen Yuyan said coldly, "What bad luck! You've ruined my good mood for the whole day!"
After saying that, Shen Yuyan picked up her whip and walked away into the distance.
With each step she took, she stepped on someone, causing them to scream in pain.
Lan Hua then stepped on the eunuch and strode away.
Geng, the guard, struggled to his feet and angrily said, "Eunuch Wang, is this the kind of formidable woman you were talking about?"
Eunuch Wang's expression changed slightly, and he quickly lowered his head. "Guard Geng, how should we avenge this?"
"Hmph, it seems the only way to settle this score is to bring out my Second Prince!" Guard Geng said coldly.
Geng, the head guard, accompanied Eunuch Wang to meet with the Second Prince Zhou Qi, pleading with him to help them take revenge.
Upon hearing that the person who hit him was Shen Yuyan from the Demon Suppression Division, Zhou Qi immediately became angry.
Do you know who Shen Yuyan is?
Geng, the head of the guard, and Wang, the eunuch, exchanged a glance and both shook their heads.
“Chen Yuyan is a commander of the Demon Suppression Division. Now, my eldest brother, third brother, and I are all trying to gain the support of the Demon Suppression Division. How can we lay a hand on a commander?”
"Let's drop this matter and not discuss it further. Eunuch Wang, please return!"
Seeing that the Second Prince was driving him away, Eunuch Wang had no choice but to leave the mansion.
Eunuch Wang rubbed his pig-like face and said, "Guard Geng, I was injured like this because I wanted to see your master, and the Second Prince didn't even utter a fart!"
"Who can I complain to?!"
With a helpless expression, Guard Geng advised, "My Second Prince is currently in a special situation and cannot cause trouble. Please understand!"
He changed the subject abruptly, saying, "But Eunuch Wang, didn't you become the godfather of the Grand Eunuch Wang Xiao?"
Eunuch Wang was taken aback. "Yes!"
"Then you can seek revenge on your godfather. He has considerable influence in the palace!"
Wang Gonggong's eyes suddenly lit up, and he laughed, "Yes, my godfather is one of Governor Cao's two favorites! I'll go back to the palace right now and beg my godfather to step in and avenge me!"
After saying this, Eunuch Wang hurriedly returned to the palace.
When Lan Hua and Shen Yu Yan returned to the Suppression Division, they found no guards at the entrance, which immediately struck them as odd.
Even if the Demon Suppression Division is short-handed, there will always be two Demon Suppression Guards guarding the entrance.
"Could it be that something happened to the Demon Suppression Division?"
This was Lan Hua and Shen Yu Yan's first reaction. The two hurriedly entered the Demon Suppression Bureau's courtyard, only to find it empty.
Shen Yuyan looked at the Demon Suppression Tower and found that the tower was flashing with light, which meant that the defensive barrier was unstable.
"Oh no! Something's happened at the Demon Suppression Tower. Everyone must have gone to support it!" Shen Yuyan said, squinting her eyes.
Lan Hua thought to herself, "Could it be that what I was worried about has actually happened?"
Shen Yuyan quickly led Lan Hua to the foot of the Demon-Suppressing Tower. "Commander Long, what happened to the Demon-Suppressing Tower?"
