"About two months ago, Tianyi City, a peaceful and tranquil city, was attacked by a small group of demonic beasts without any warning."
Tantai Qiuyue's expression was solemn as she slowly spoke, "This is an extremely rare occurrence. You must understand that in this vast land of Tianyuan County, the vast majority of demonic beasts reside in the desolate Yin-Yang Mountain, the border area between Yanming City and Tianyi City. They usually only roam within the Yin-Yang Mountain region and rarely take the initiative to form groups to aggressively attack innocent civilians within the city. At that time, I keenly sensed the anomaly and immediately took two hundred experts from the Demon Suppression Division, rushing here at top speed."
"Initially, we were able to successfully stop the attacking monsters outside the city and kill them in one fell swoop. However, the situation took a sharp turn for the worse. Later, hordes of monsters appeared like an endless tide. Even with our best efforts, our two hundred men were no match for this overwhelming army of monsters. In desperation, we had to urgently mobilize eight hundred elite troops to provide support. But even so, recently these monsters seem to have suddenly rioted, becoming increasingly frenzied. Some lord-level monsters, which are rarely seen in normal times, have also begun to emerge. They are like animals entering an empty city, directly attacking the city, wantonly slaughtering the people and eating human flesh. For a time, the people in the city were filled with fear and screams."
"Given such a dire situation, I had no other choice but to report this emergency to the court. Upon learning of it, the court swiftly dispatched Marquis Li Hong, leading three thousand Demon-Suppressing Army soldiers, who arrived at breakneck speed. The imposing heavy cavalry force we saw earlier was Marquis Li Hong's personal guard. Speaking of Marquis Li Hong, although his character is not entirely satisfactory, it is undeniable that he is capable. After his arrival, he quickly commanded his troops, leading them to slay a large number of demonic beasts, which brought the situation under some control."
"However, in the past few days, the monsters have started to move again. Even with our combined efforts with the Demon Suppression Army, we are struggling to hold them off. I am worried that this is a sign of an impending beast tide, which is why I am sending this message to you to ask for your help."
Fang Han narrowed his eyes slightly, pondered for a moment, then raised his head and asked, "Where did so many demonic beasts come from? They couldn't have just appeared out of thin air, could they?"
Tantai Qiuyue sighed softly and said, "Based on the information we have so far, they should all be coming from Yin Yang Mountain. That area of Yin Yang Mountain has always been mysterious and unpredictable, with many demonic beasts."
“It seems that something has happened at Yin Yang Mountain.” Fang Han said with a firm gaze and a calm tone, “Now that I’m here, I’ll first wipe out all the demonic beasts in Tianyi City and restore peace to this city, and then go to Yin Yang Mountain to find out what’s going on.”
He had a vague feeling that the demonic beasts that appeared on the outskirts of Tianyi City and invaded the city were much stronger than the ordinary demonic beasts in Yin Yang Mountain. There must be some unknown secret behind this.
Not long after, Zhuge Yun, Sun Liren, and Xiao Yan, with heavy hearts, carefully carried the bodies of their deceased brothers from the Demon Suppression Division together.
They looked at their brothers who had fought side by side and shared life and death, now whose eyes were closed forever, their hearts filled with grief and anger.
They then transported the corpse back to the Demon Suppression Division's command post in Tianyi City.
The Demon Suppression Division's temporary command post in Tianyi City was set up next to the City Lord's Mansion.
Tantai Qiuyue's decision to establish the temporary command here was made after careful consideration.
After all, in order to eliminate the monsters in Tianyi City, the cooperation and support of the city lord are needed for many things.
Only by maintaining close ties with the City Lord's Mansion can we better coordinate resources from all sides and jointly combat the invasion of monsters.
The city lord of Tianyi City is named Wu Tian. He is already over sixty years old and has reached the early stage of Foundation Establishment. In Tianyi City, he can be considered the number one expert.
However, compared to the luxurious and grand City Lord's Mansion, the Demon Suppression Division's command post appeared quite simple.
A few dilapidated houses and a few old tables and chairs are all the belongings here.
Moreover, there weren't many experts from the Demon Suppression Division in the temporary command post.
This was because of the urgency of the situation. Tantai Qiuyue had sent out all the experts from the Demon Suppression Division she had brought, distributing them to various corners of Tianyi City to closely monitor the movements of the demon beasts and be ready to deal with any emergencies.
After returning to the temporary command post, Zhuge Yun, Sun Liren, Xiao Yan, and the others all felt exhausted.
Their bodies were covered in blood and dust, and their armor was tattered.
So they all took a bath, changed out of their tattered armor and bloodstained clothes, and restored some of their strength.
"Everyone, your injuries have not fully healed, and your bodies are still very weak. I will distribute some pills to you and teach you a cultivation and healing technique. Please continue to heal your injuries. Only by restoring your health can you better fight against the demonic beasts."
Fang Han looked at everyone and said with concern.
After saying that, Fang Han took out eighteen pills from the Azure Dragon Ring.
He gave each of them a pill, and then solemnly taught them the Seven Star Scripture and the Seven Star Sword Technique.
The Seven Star Scripture is a profound cultivation technique that can enhance a cultivator's internal strength and cultivation level; the Seven Star Sword Technique is an extremely fierce sword technique, with each move potentially fatal, and it can exert tremendous power when fighting against demonic beasts.
Moreover, he passed on the Seven Star Sword and the Seven Star Sword Technique to Tantai Qiuyue without reservation, and solemnly instructed her to pass them on to every reliable member of the Demon Suppression Division.
After all, he was the chief retainer of the Demon Suppression Division, and he had the responsibility and obligation to make the brothers of the Demon Suppression Division stronger.
