Beside the man wearing a wrinkled crew-neck shirt was a handsome man with a completely opposite style of dress.
A sophisticated jacket, with the collar of a red shirt peeking out from the neckline, paired with straight trousers, a delicate leather belt, and round-toed leather shoes.
Compared to the man in the round-neck shirt, this slightly dashing man's style of dress was much more normal.
"Lazy Team, we're late!"
"It's a well-dressed man," said the man.
"Yes!"
"The demonic aura is very strong! It must have just ended in a battle!"
Recently, things have been quite unsettled in our Tongcheng City. Not only have many cultivators suddenly appeared, but many places are also filled with demonic energy, and many strange things have happened!
"Unfortunately, the enforcement team is too small."
"Yes, the law enforcement team in Tongcheng City has only been established for a short time, so there are not enough people. We will recruit more powerful cultivators to strengthen the team in the future!"
No matter what kind of demons or monsters they are, if they dare to disrupt order and commit evil deeds in the human world, they will be killed without mercy!
The man in the white shirt, known as the "Lazy Team," said seriously.
"Let's go, there are no more clues here, let's look elsewhere."
Lazy Team Leader, there's been a lot of eerie energy around Tongcheng University lately. Should we increase patrols in that area?
You're right.
The area around Tongcheng University is in your hands now. Let me know immediately if you find any leads!
After the middle-aged man in the white shirt finished speaking, he threw out a delicate little iron sword. The sword was only the size of a palm, but it instantly grew to more than three meters long in the night sky. The man in the white shirt easily jumped onto the flying sword and then rode it away.
The handsome man in the jacket was about to complain when the man in the white shirt had already vanished without a trace.

Zhang Yuan carried Zeng Jingxue and Chen Li back to Rongxia Courtyard, where they happened to run into Wang Qiang from the school basketball team and his girlfriend.
As they passed by, Wang Qiang and Zhang Yuan exchanged a glance. Wang Qiang was shocked to see that Zhang Yuan was carrying two beautiful women on either side of him. He waited until Zhang Yuan entered the courtyard.
Wang Qiang shook his head in disbelief.
Oh my god!
"What is he trying to do?!"
"Get Zeng Jingxue and Chen Li, two beautiful women, drunk, and then..."
*
*
The small courtyard under the banyan tree, second floor.
Zhang Yuan put Zeng Jingxue and Chen Li on the bed, helped them take off their shoes and coats, and covered them with a corner of the quilt.
Finally, he briefly checked the two girls' bodies. Their blood and qi circulation was normal, and they were in good health. He then took out a simplified version of the Foundation Building Pill, diluted it with water, and gave it to the two girls.
Back in his dormitory, Zhang Yuan first took a cold shower to wash away the dirt and dust, and then sat on his bed to meditate and cultivate.
He spread his consciousness, enveloping the entire three-story house, including Zeng Jingxue and Chen Li who were sleeping downstairs, to prevent the demons from coming back for revenge.
After reaching the middle stage of the Meridian Opening Realm, in addition to the increase in his internal energy, his consciousness also became more acute. He could keenly perceive any movement within a ten-meter radius.
Meanwhile, Zhang Yuan recalled what the two monsters had said during the battle that night.
Dragon Demon King?
A demon race manhunt order?
Why is the Flood Dragon Demon King chasing me?
Do these two monsters have any other companions?
...
Zhang Yuan thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure it out, so he had to give up.
He should hurry up and cultivate to improve his strength, as the two monsters he encountered tonight might come looking for trouble again at any time.
Zhang Yuan closed his eyes and continued his meditation practice.
On the third day, Zhang Yuan skipped class and hid in his dormitory to study how to refine the Burst Pill.
Downstairs, Zeng Jingxue and Chen Limei slept soundly through the night and woke up refreshed. Because they were under a spell, they couldn't remember anything that happened after they met the two men in suits the night before!
Although the incident was a bit strange, the two felt refreshed and physically fine after waking up, so they didn't pay much attention to it and went to class after washing up.
Zhang Yuan was focused on refining pills when his phone by the bedside rang several times. He ignored it and continued to use the Fire Control Technique to refine the pills.
A day goes by quickly.
As darkness fell, Zhang Yuan, after a busy day, still failed to refine the Burst Pill!
He wiped his sweat before looking at his phone.
Zeng Jingxue: Are you there?
What happened on Student Street last night? Why can't I remember it? I remember the three of us went to Uncle Tu's for barbecue last night, so how come I woke up this morning in bed?
Zhang Yuan was focused on refining pills and didn't check the messages.
A few minutes later, Zeng Jingxue sent another message.
Where are they?
What are you doing?
Did you take off my and Chen Li's coats last night?!
Did you do something to us that you're afraid to reply to our messages?
The text was followed by an angry emoji!
Zhang Yuan, you didn't actually do something to us, did you?!
Damn it!
Why aren't you replying!
anger!
...
Chen Li: Brother Zhang Yuan, were you the one who took Jingxue and me back to our dorm last night?
By the way, what happened last night? Why can't I remember anything?
I woke up this morning to find my clothes off. You wouldn't...
A blushing expression.
*
Zhang Yuan, why aren't you replying to my messages?
You didn't actually do something you shouldn't have to us, did you?!
Oh my god!
If you really do it, don't be embarrassed. At worst, she'll be your girlfriend...
Cute and coquettish expression.
After reading the messages from the two girls, Zhang Yuan's feelings were like this: ...
Then, he replied to each message.
Zhang Yuan: I didn't! Don't talk nonsense!
Chen Li: Really not?
Zhang Yuan: No, really!
Chen Li: Crying.
You scoundrel, you still say you didn't? Then who took off my clothes?
Zhang Yuan: Uh.
Chen Li: That means it's there!
Zhang Yuan: No, you've misunderstood!
Chen Li: Anyway, I was completely unconscious, so I don't know what you said or did...
...
Zhang Yuan: I was busy and didn't check my phone!
Last night, two drunkards came and caused trouble at the barbecue stand. You were so frightened that you passed out. I took you home. I just helped you take off your clothes and shoes; I didn't do anything else!
Zeng Jingxue: Are you sure?
Why is there a glass of water on the table?
Zhang Yuan: ...
I really didn't do anything.
Zeng Jingxue: I'm furious!
Seeing that he couldn't explain it clearly, Zhang Yuan forwarded a news report he had seen about two drunkards causing trouble on the student street last night to Zeng Jingxue and Chen Li.
"Last night, a disturbance occurred at a barbecue stall on Tongcheng University's student street. When the police arrived after receiving a report, the troublemakers had already left. Customers inside the barbecue stall appeared to be unconscious for unknown reasons, but are now unharmed. According to nearby residents, two men in suits arrived, and an argument seemed to break out; the barbecue stall was even knocked over. The police are currently conducting a further investigation and searching for the troublemakers..."
...
night.
The Yida Convenience Store was dimly lit, and the store's roller shutter door was mostly closed, leaving only a gap of less than a meter.
The bull demon, with a bandage wrapped around his head, sat behind the counter smoking in silence.
There was a cane next to the counter.
Three days ago, he fought Zhang Yuan and was nearly killed by a lightning talisman.
I just woke up this afternoon. Although my life is not in danger, the muscles in one of my legs were struck by lightning, and my entire leg turned black and is almost ruined. It will probably take three to five days to recover.
So for now, I can only walk with crutches.
This injury has greatly affected his cultivation level, and it will probably take some time for him to recover and return to his previous strength.
At the same cultivation level, the bodies of demons are much stronger than those of human cultivators, but the spells of human cultivators are more powerful than those of demons.
The two lightning talismans that Zhang Yuan detonated with all his might were almost equivalent to an attack from a late-stage Meridian Opening Realm cultivator. If it were an ordinary mid-stage Meridian Opening Realm cultivator, taking two lightning talismans would result in serious injury, even if they didn't die, and they would have to stay in bed for at least one or two months. However, the bull demon was able to get up and walk again after only three days.
One has to admire the incredible physical strength of the demon race!
The dog demon emerged from the shadows behind the shop, the thick silver necklace around its neck now gone.
Last time, during the battle near Tongcheng University, Zhang Yuan burned me to ashes with a fire talisman!
"Brother Niu, the boss woke you up. Go upstairs and go see him."
"The dog demon said, his face gloomy."
"knew."
After finishing his last puff of cigarette, the bull demon threw the butt on the ground, leaned on his crutch, and limped after the dog demon, heading towards the dark room on the second floor.
