The nine silver-medal demon slayers drew their swords and charged forward, each exuding a murderous aura.
The brothel keeper crouched in the corner, trembling like a quail.
Nolan Dan was also momentarily stunned. How did a group of bandits suddenly appear?
This fox demon was his mission; he needed to capture it and report back.
Seeing the fox demon turn to flee, Nolan Dan leaped into the air, flying gracefully as he pursued.
Figures jumped out from the third-floor windows. Isla Qin, like a red streak of light, flew across the rooftops.
Mason Wei and his group also used their footwork, light as swallows, chasing across the rooftops.
Nolan Dan followed behind. Even though the rooftops were covered in snow, they moved as if on flat ground.
Misty Willow House was instantly in an uproar.
“A fox demon?”
“Fairy Isla Qin is a fox demon?”
“Is that true?”
“I don’t believe it. How could Fairy Isla Qin be a fox demon?”
“Right, if Fairy Isla Qin were a fox demon, we would have been eaten long ago.”
“Who the hell is spreading rumors? If Fairy Isla Qin is a demon, I’ll eat ten pounds of shit.”
“Exactly, Fairy Isla Qin is as beautiful as a heavenly immortal. I don’t believe she’s a fox demon.”
“Damn it, whoever dares to slander my dream lover, come out, and I’ll cut you down.”
Many old patrons in Misty Willow House refused to believe that Fairy Isla Qin was a fox demon.
“Demon, demon…”
The brothel keeper was petrified. Who could have thought that the top courtesan of Misty Willow House was actually a demon?
Thinking about how demons eat people, one bite at a time, the brothel keeper felt she was incredibly lucky to have stayed with a demon every day and not been eaten.
…
“Fox demon, prepare to die.”
Mason Wei slashed out a blade of light, aiming at Isla Qin.
Isla Qin turned, her sleeves dancing, demonic energy surging, shattering the blade of light.
“People of the Great Wei Demon Slayer Division, you really are persistent,” Isla Qin stood in mid-air, her clothes fluttering, looking both like a fairy and a demon, exuding an enchanting allure.
Even with a cold expression, her beautiful face was full of charm.
Snowflakes began to fall from the sky.
“Damn demoness, dare to confuse our minds? Wake up!” Mason Wei shouted, his voice like thunder, waking the nine silver-medal slayers who had fallen under the enchantment.
At the same time, Mason Wei’s body released a torrent of blood energy, like a boiling furnace, melting the snowflakes in the sky.
The nine silver-medal slayers, all at the Postnatal Realm at Great Perfection, also released their blood energy, guarding their minds against the allure of the demonic qi.
“Innate Great Perfection, is that your confidence?” Isla Qin looked at Mason Wei with cold eyes.
“Fox demon, surrender and face the law,” Nolan Dan flew over, holding a magical sword, his body exuding a mysterious aura.
Their Pill Sect not only refined pills but also practiced some Taoist techniques.
“Illumination Great Perfection cultivator, Innate Great Perfection martial artist, do you really think I’m afraid of you?” Isla Qin’s body surged with red demonic qi, like a supreme demon descending.
The powerful and terrifying pressure made the nine silver-medal slayers retreat continuously, unable to withstand the terrifying demonic qi.
“Demoness, die!” Mason Wei’s blood energy soared, his body filled with innate true qi, and he charged with his blade.
“Lin!” Nolan Dan’s magical sword shone brightly, shooting directly at Isla Qin like a flying sword.
Isla Qin slapped away Nolan Dan’s magical sword, her sleeve like a whip, striking at Mason Wei.
“Boom!”
The blade light collided with the red sleeve, sending the snow on the rooftop flying.
Mason Wei and Nolan Dan fought fiercely with Isla Qin, the spiritual energy fluctuating, blood energy soaring, and demonic qi rolling, the terrifying momentum making ordinary people tremble.
The ordinary residents below the house were extremely frightened.
Fortunately, the two men and the demon intentionally controlled their power, otherwise, the house would have collapsed.
In a flash, the three had exchanged dozens to hundreds of moves, and the nine silver-medal slayers couldn’t intervene at all.
In the craftsman’s workshop, Oliver Sheng, who was involved in the manufacture of heavy armor, looked up, his gaze directed towards the sky. He sensed the blood energy fluctuations and the rolling spiritual energy in that direction.
There was also a strange and powerful aura.
“Who is fighting in the city?” Oliver Sheng frowned.
The innate-level fluctuations naturally couldn’t escape his perception.
“Daring to fight in the city, they must be ignoring my presence!” Oliver Sheng wouldn’t allow anyone to cause trouble in the city.
“You all continue working, I have something to handle.” Oliver Sheng put down his work and left the craftsman’s workshop.
He then leaped onto the rooftop, quickly heading towards the direction of the blood and spiritual energy fluctuations.
Isla Qin’s eyes narrowed as she sensed a terrifying blood energy approaching.
That was Oliver Sheng’s blood energy, another master at the innate realm.
His blood energy was far stronger than Mason Wei’s.
Facing Mason Wei and Nolan Dan, Isla Qin was unafraid, but if Oliver Sheng joined the battle, she might not fare well.
She immediately turned and flew away, transforming into a red shadow heading out of the city.
“Demoness, where are you running?” Seeing Isla Qin trying to escape, Mason Wei pursued recklessly.
Nolan Dan also activated his techniques, flying like a swallow in pursuit.
One had to admit, this demoness was indeed powerful. Even when besieged by him and the Demon Slayer Division, she was still at ease. His junior brother Dan Feng’s death was not in vain.
This was already a supreme great demon, one step away from becoming a demon king.
The nine silver-medal slayers also followed in pursuit.
By the time Oliver Sheng arrived, the three auras had already moved out of the city.
“An innate martial artist, and another aura that seems to be Nolan Dan’s.”
“The third aura is very special, unfamiliar yet somewhat familiar.” Oliver Sheng sensed the residual auras in the air.
In a short time, the three auras had left the city. Oliver Sheng chased to the city wall but did not continue.
Without understanding the situation, as long as they didn’t fight in the city, Oliver Sheng didn’t care.
“General!” The soldiers on the city wall saw Oliver Sheng and quickly saluted.
“No need for formalities. What happened just now?” Oliver Sheng asked.
The soldier quickly reported, “General, a powerful martial artist and a Taoist seemed to be chasing a woman in red out of the city.”
“Increase the patrols and vigilance.” Oliver Sheng glanced outside the city.
“Yes!” The soldier responded with a fist salute.
Outside the city, the snow-covered landscape was a world of ice and snow.
Oliver Sheng returned, not paying much attention.
Outside the city, the three fought fiercely, unleashing their true qi and demonic energy, breaking trees and sending snow flying, causing extreme destruction.
The nine silver-medal slayers only dared to watch from a distance.
This was a battle at the Innate Great Perfection realm; any stray true qi or demonic energy could kill them.
“How is this demoness so powerful?” one silver-medal slayer said.
“Last time we besieged her, she escaped. She wasn’t this strong then.”
In just a few months, this great demon’s strength had increased significantly.
“We underestimated her. I’m afraid our team can’t take down this great demon.”
They looked serious.
Isla Qin fought Mason Wei and Nolan Dan without falling behind. The two of them together could only fight her to a draw.
…
Soon, the news that Isla Qin was a demon spread throughout River West County.
“No wonder, I always felt something was off about that demoness.”
“What’s off? You were just infatuated.”
“And you weren’t?”
“I always wondered how someone could be so beautiful. Turns out she’s a fox demon.”
“Indeed, only a legendary fox demon could be so beautiful.”
“Close call. I heard fox demons suck the life force out of people. Good thing I never slept with that fox demon.”
“Ha, you just couldn’t get her. Otherwise, you’d have run faster than a dog.”
In River West County, many men were discussing the matter.
Magistrate Chen found Oliver Sheng, who was discussing heavy armor design with the craftsmen.
“General Sheng.”
Seeing Magistrate Chen, Oliver Sheng stopped and looked at him.
“Magistrate Chen, what’s the matter?”
Magistrate Chen looked at Oliver Sheng with a serious expression. “General Sheng, Fairy Isla Qin is a demon.”
???
“Fairy Isla Qin is a demon?” Oliver Sheng was visibly stunned.
“Yes, she’s a fox demon. The news has spread throughout the county.”
“Today, the Demon Slayer Division and a Taoist exposed her identity at Misty Willow House. They fought and then took the battle outside the city,” Magistrate Chen said gravely.
Fortunately, no demon killings were discovered in the city, or he would have been held accountable.
He had been infatuated with Isla Qin, not realizing it was demonic enchantment.
“A fox demon?”
Oliver Sheng now understood that the unfamiliar aura he sensed was demonic qi, and it belonged to Isla Qin.
He had suspected her identity but didn’t expect her to be a fox demon.
Her concealment techniques were truly exceptional.
“Since the Demon Slayer Division is handling it, we’ll just wait,” Oliver Sheng said.
Demon slaying was the Demon Slayer Division’s job, and Oliver Sheng had no intention of getting involved.
“I’m afraid it won’t be that simple. With a demon appearing, they might ask you to send troops to help slay the demon,” Magistrate Chen said.
“We’ll see when the time comes. Magistrate Chen, are you worried about being implicated?” Oliver Sheng looked at him.
“I have nothing to fear. I never did anything for Fairy Isla Qin, I mean, that demoness. I have a clear conscience,” Magistrate Chen said, standing tall.
Oliver Sheng looked at him with disdain. You wanted to sleep with her.
Too bad you couldn’t.
If Isla Qin had wanted to enchant Magistrate Chen and use him, it would have taken no time at all.
To be honest, Magistrate Chen was a bit worried. A great demon appearing under his watch was a serious oversight.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have rushed to find Oliver Sheng upon hearing that Isla Qin was a fox demon.
“General Sheng, do you think the demons have a plot to cause trouble in the county?” Magistrate Chen asked uneasily.
Humans and demons were mortal enemies, having fought for countless years.
“What are you afraid of?” Oliver Sheng looked at him with his nose in the air.
“As long as I’m guarding the city, no mere demon can cause trouble.”
Oliver Sheng was confident and domineering. With him around, anyone who dared to cause trouble would be killed without mercy.
“Good to hear you’re confident, General Sheng,” Magistrate Chen nodded.
Every time demons appeared, it meant chaos and bloodshed, making Magistrate Chen anxious.
Demons were notoriously brutal, and the mere mention of them caused fear, a lesson learned from history.
