Eerie and strange noises arose behind him, causing Shen Changqing's hairs to stand on end in an instant.
Without any hesitation, he smashed the gate of the courtyard with a single palm strike and rushed out.
After bursting out of the yard.
Shen Changqing walked away without looking back.
After a long while, he finally stopped.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
When I turned back, the courtyard had already been left far behind.
This is the current moment.
Shen Changqing's heart, which had been beating rapidly, gradually calmed down.
"What on earth is that!"
The text ">" does not contain any content to translate. It appears to be HTML tags. If you provide me with actual text within the , I'll be happy to translate it for you.
He was certain now, Mo Zijin was definitely problematic.
Let me know if you'd like me to translate something else!
Because he clearly saw the other person enter the room, but when he left and turned around, they suddenly appeared behind him.
By this stage, Shen Changqing's cultivation had reached such a level that any movement within ten meters of him was impossible to conceal from his keen senses.
But——
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Mo Zijin's footsteps, I didn't notice at all.
Even so.
If it weren't for the other party speaking, Shen Changqing wouldn't have known that someone was already standing behind him.
"If he were a demon, why would there be no trace of demonic aura about him, and why didn't he attack me from beginning to end— "
After the shock, he had already calmed down.
Then!
Want to take another look
A thought popped into Shen Changqing's mind.
If he had left without looking at the situation, he would have felt a little regretful.
“I just left directly. Mo Zhin didn't stop me, maybe he simply didn't want to, or maybe he couldn't. In this case, even if I went back, as long as I was careful enough, I believe there wouldn't be any problems.”
After estimating the risks of going back.
Shen Changqing retraced his steps, quietly returning the way he had come.
It was dark.
Only the lights in the courtyard guided the way for passersby.
When Shen Changqing arrived near the courtyard, he only saw the courtyard gate open and Mo Zijin standing there, looking at him calmly.
Looked into Mo Zijin's eyes.
>
Shen Changqing didn't have much of a reaction yet, but when his gaze shifted to the gate of the courtyard, his pupils suddenly constricted.
Perfect condition!
He clearly remembered that he had just broken out.
Such power shattered the gate to pieces.
But now, the hospital gate is intact, which speaks volumes.
"Traveling at night is inconvenient, Brother Shen would be better off resting here with me."
Mo Zi Jin spoke softly, a smile on his face that was usually gentle. But in Shen Chang Qing's eyes, it seemed strange and terrifying.
"What are you"
"Shen brother, what do you mean by that" Mo Zijin looked puzzled.
Next, he beckoned.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
“Come back soon, it’s going to rain again.”
Shen Changqing looked at the other's face, and the apprehension in his heart increased again.
However, he also found some problems.
That is to say, Mo Zijin stood at the entrance of the courtyard from beginning to end, without any intention of coming out.
"Could it be that the other party can't leave the yard"
Shen Changqing pondered.
But the doubts in his heart grew larger and larger.
Because from beginning to end, Mo Zijin's body didn't have any trace of evil aura. Even if he was a powerful demon, it didn't seem like it.
But there's no doubt that the other party has problems.
After taking a long look at Mo Zijin, Shen Changqing decided to temporarily withdraw.
After all, what stood before me was not a human being, but rather something unknown.
With his current understanding, he's unable to grasp too much.
However.
In the Department of Demon Suppression, there might be records.
>
“Looks like I need to go back to the Demon Suppression Division and investigate this properly.”
Having made his decision, Shen Changqing stepped back.
The things in the courtyard were too strange. He didn't want to have too much conflict with them before he knew their true intentions.
Throughout history, some exorcists died while on duty, while others simply met their demise through reckless actions.
The experience of the former serves as a warning for the latter.
Shen Changqing felt that it was still most important to live his own life.
Watching the other party's departure, Mo Zijin's expression was calm, repeating some words in his mouth.
When Shen Changqing's figure completely disappeared, he closed his mouth and then went back.
The courtyard gate quietly closed.
Outside.
The horse tied under the tree is still there.
Shen Changqing had no intention of hurrying on his way immediately. Just as the rain had stopped, he went directly to a clearing and found a rather uneven stone.
Heavenly Martial True Qi dispersed, evaporating all the water marks on the stone.
He jumped up and managed to find a more comfortable position.
Sit cross-legged.
He closed his eyes and entered a state of tranquility.
In the wild, it's unsafe. If you really want to go into deep meditation, you'll inevitably be disturbed.
The main problem is that the Heaven-Martial Qi has reached an unprecedented thirteenth layer. There are no subsequent cultivation methods, so cultivation naturally becomes impossible.

One night passed quickly.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
At the moment when the eastern fish's belly turned white, Shen Changqing's abdomen suddenly sucked in, his mouth slightly opened, and a wisp of purple qi was swallowed into his belly.
Purple Qi enters the abdomen.

The true energy seemed to have grown stronger, yet it also seemed like nothing had changed.
He landed with a leap.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
He came to the horse's side, untied the reins tied to the tree, and then swung himself onto the mount, continuing his journey towards the capital.
Time flies.
Please let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Ten days.
Shen Changqing finally saw the city wall of the capital, but unfortunately, the horse he bought in Lin'an City finally fell on the way to the capital.
However, it wasn't far from the capital at that time.
Even without horses to replace human effort, it wouldn't take much time.
Compared with Lin'an city.
The city walls of the capital were very high, with soldiers patrolling day and night. The gates were also heavily guarded, and every person entering the city was searched and required to present a permit.
That's what the sign says.
In Shen Changqing's understanding, it's just like an ID card from his past life.
"Halt! Show your credentials!"
When it was Shen Changqing's turn to enter the city, he was intercepted directly by a soldier.
Seeing this.
He took out his identity card.
The soldier's face changed upon seeing this, and his originally indifferent tone became enthusiastic.
"As it turns out, it's a great person from the Demon Suppression Division. This subordinate was disrespectful. Please come in, sir."
"Hmm."
Shen Changqing nodded, put his identity token back in his pocket, and walked straight in.
As soon as I entered the city.
There was a constant buzz of noise.
Looking around, one can see people bustling about everywhere.
The liveliness here is unparalleled anywhere else.
Shen Changqing paused for a moment, then walked towards the direction of the Demon Suppression Division.
The capital city.
There are two parts: the outer city and the inner city.
The outer city is where the common people live, and it's also the most bustling part of the entire capital. As for the inner city, only high-ranking officials and ministers have the privilege of residing there.
An ordinary commoner, let alone living in the inner city, wouldn't even necessarily be allowed to enter.
That's it.
Nature itself has created the emptiness of the inner city, devoid of the bustling vibrancy of the outer city.
The Demon Suppression Division, as an important institution of the Qin Dynasty, also exists within the inner city.
To get from the Outer City to the Inner City, you need to pass through an important checkpoint.
The purpose of setting up checkpoints is also to prevent those with ulterior motives from taking the opportunity to mix in.
After Shen Changqing displayed his demon-slaying officer's token, he entered the inner city without any hindrance.
For the people of Qin.
Offending anyone is acceptable, but never offend the people of the Demon Suppression Division.
This is a consensus.
>
Those who have offended the Demon Suppression Division throughout history have never ended well, no matter how powerful they are. As long as you are not the current emperor, you will not have a good end.
In the long run.
made the name of the Demon Suppression Division deeply rooted in people's hearts.
“An institution is riding high, and if it were in a previous dynasty’s imperial court, it would have surely been suppressed long ago. Now, within the Qin Dynasty, the Demon Suppression Division not only hasn't faced any suppression, but instead has received strong support from the royal family.”
It is impossible to say that there is no relationship with demons.
As he strolled through the inner city, Shen Changqing heard some news that made him understand.
His achievements surpassed those of his master.
This is applicable everywhere.
Right now, the Demon Suppression Division is at its peak, but it hasn't been suppressed by the royal family. To put it plainly, this is because demon beasts are rampant.

If the Demon Suppressing Division were to be suppressed, who else could deal with demons
Although there are many people in the Great Qin Dynasty who can deal with demons, most of them come from the Demon Suppression Division.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
If the Demon Suppression Division were to disappear.
Most of the territory of the Qin Dynasty will become a paradise for demons.
But——
Among the high-ranking officials of the Demon Suppression Division, there might not be people from the royal family. After all, even if the current emperor trusts the Demon Suppression Division and fears demons and ghosts, he wouldn't make no preparations at all.
Shen Changqing didn't know much about these matters. He was just a newly promoted Huangjie demon slayer and wasn't qualified to access anything too high-level.
You may not have eaten pork, but you've seen pigs run.
He's also well-informed about some things.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Although the inner city was sparsely populated, the space was certainly not small. Shen Changqing spent two hours before arriving at the gate of the Demon Suppression Division.
Present your identification card.
>
Without any obstruction, they entered the jurisdiction of the Demon Suppression Division.
In a flash.
A familiar metallic tang of blood hit me instantly. Unlike the peace outside, the Demon Suppression Division was always filled with a chilling sense of dread.
When Shen Changqing first arrived in this world, he would feel a strong sense of discomfort towards the atmosphere of the Demon Suppression Division.
Over time, he got used to many things.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
...Until now.
It took quite a while to complete the mission. When returning, the atmosphere of the Demon Suppression Office felt surprisingly comforting.
"Home!"
Shen Changqing sighed.
For him, the Demon Suppression Office was like his home in this world.
To others, the Demon Suppression Division is like a tiger's den.
As for Shen Changqing himself, the Demon Suppression Division had already become a home.
I felt a lot of emotion.
Shen Changqing didn't go directly to Jiang Zuo to report anything. Instead, he first returned to his own small courtyard.
Opening the gate to the courtyard, nothing had changed.
It was only when I returned to my room and pushed open the door that a musty smell hit me, accompanied by a slight dusting of dust.
Upon seeing this.
Shen Changqing's true qi surged, driving away the musty smell and dust all at once.ou actually dare to take out such a divine elixir. Do you truly want to be enemies with this deity until death”Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!When the divine herb c...
