Inside the county government office.
Xu Rurong had changed out of her official robes and into simple clothes.
"Your Excellency, you can't go with us!" Luo Yong said anxiously.
"What if the mountain goddess on that desolate mountain is also a demon? You'll be in danger! Our entire desolate county is counting on you!"
Even if another county magistrate were appointed, would he be as responsible as the current Magistrate Xu?
Xu Rurong shook her head firmly: "That's exactly why I want to go and see."
"If she is truly a powerful demon, one that even the county magistrate and Miss Wang cannot defeat, then I will suffer the same fate no matter where I am."
"Whether it's a deity or a demon, since it has appeared in this world, it must have needs. How can I negotiate with it if I don't go there myself?"
Moreover, Xu Rurong had a very strong intuition that the one on the desolate mountain was the real mountain god!
How could evil spirits be so kind as to bestow blessings upon the villagers of Linjia Village without charging any price?
Moreover, the opponent even used divine descent techniques. Which evil spirit has such an ability?
Even if we assume the opponent is truly a demon, and we still can't defeat them, then we still can't.
There are so many evil spirits in this world. Even if we drive one away, there might be another soon. It's better to negotiate terms and keep the other side calm.
As an ordinary county magistrate, all he could do was his best.
Seeing the magistrate's resolute stance, Luo Yong didn't continue speaking, but instead became even more silent.
Xu Rurong noticed this and seemed to be deep in thought.
"Your Excellency, are you ready? We can't delay any longer!" Wang Qing jumped in through the window.
Xu Rurong's eyes lit up when she saw her; this was a very cool demon hunter!
I've only ever seen this in novels before!
"Ahem." Magistrate Chen coughed twice as a reminder.
Xu Rurong felt a little regretful, as he genuinely wanted to invite the other party to work in the county town.
However, Xu Rurong was also very clear that the current wasteland was extremely poor and could not afford to hire a demon hunter.
It's okay, he will definitely keep trying!
“Magistrate, you’re here too.” Wang Qing glanced at him briefly before turning back to stare at the chubby county magistrate.
“Miss Wang, do we really have to go?” County Magistrate Chen was reluctant.
Although he cared about the people, he also valued his life!
That mountain goddess is so much more powerful than the goddess who grants children. If she goes like this, will she ever be able to come back?
…
