Translator: 549690339
The young cultivator was called Lei Yin, with the cultivation level of the ninth level of Qi training, just a hair’s breadth from achieving perfect Qi training. He excelled in Thunder Method.
He was the highest-level cultivator in the Enforcement Hall, commonly known for exterminating countless Demon Envoys, his formidable reputation was infamous.
His eyes were a golden yellow, full of domineering presence. He coldly looked at the Hexaptera Parasite struggling in Ling Peng’s hand and said:
“Heretic monsters, daring to reach out to our cultivators from the Enforcement Hall, whether it’s intentional or unintentional, I’ll make sure they pay a heavy price!”
“Let’s go!”
The moment his words fell, Lei Yin rode on a flying sword, shooting out. Ling Peng quickly followed.
Wang Family.
In the grand hall, Wang Shan’s belly had swelled into a large ball. This huge ball swelled and contracted like a beating heart.
His entire body had become like a dried corpse. His drooping skin continuously cracked, exposing bleached bones underneath.
“Ah… It’s about to be born…”
Lady Wang looked at the incessantly throbbing large ball, her face showing a hint of maternal glow. Her hands were cradling her abdomen, ready to catch the baby about to burst out.
“Where does this Demon Envoy come from? Daring to act wildly in Linyang Market, meet your doom!”
As his words fell, a gigantic fire dragon, several dozen feet long, rushed in swiftly, charging straight towards Wang Shan’s swollen belly.
“Wa!”
A baby’s cry came from Wang Shan’s belly. The cry carried endless resentment, a wall of grey-black spiritual energy instantly solidified, protecting the large ball from the rapidly advancing fire dragon.
The fire dragon collided with the grey-black wall, instantly turning into countless flames, falling on the furniture inside the house, burning furiously.
Ling Peng flew above the house, coldly observing the two people inside the house in a bizarre state through the large hole opened by the fire dragon.
He looked at the increasingly rapidly throbbing large ball, as well as the woman with a frantic expression, knowing that there was no time to lose, he let out a cold snort.
A small fire lotus flew out from his body.
The fire lotus was three-colored: the stems were dark red with numerous thin lines, the petals were fire red with flowing traces of magma, and the lotus flowers were light red, transparent as jade.
The three-colored fire lotus split into three, growing rapidly in size, directly piercing through the grey-black spiritual energy wall, and was about to land on the large ball in Wang Shan’s abdomen.
The large ball seemed to sense the threat of the three-colored fire lotus, a huge crack rapidly appeared, with two small black arms lying on either side of the crack.
The thing inside couldn’t wait to hatch normally, and was about to prematurely encounter the world.
The woman next to him, her abdomen also had the same large crack, her insides were all empty, filled only with pure resentment.
The baby’s arms lay on the edge of the crack, all of a sudden, a more resentful baby’s cry rang out, numerous grey-black baby palm print appeared on the three-colored fire lotus, the magma flowing in the petals slowed down almost instantly.
“Still struggling in vain, meet your death!”
A harsh voice rang out.
Above Wang’s residence, it suddenly became pitch white, the cultivators who were watching instantly losing any vision, a loud rumbling sound echoed, thunder descended, the entire Wang residence turning into an ocean of lightning.
When everything calmed down, Wang residence had turned into a black and grey area. The large ball in Wang Shan’s abdomen along with Lady Wang, under the might of the thunderbolt, turned into dust.
After the two swept their spiritual sense around the courtyard and its surrounding areas, confirming that there was nothing abnormal, they descended.
“Junior Brother Ling, after some time, have someone come and inspect the surroundings again, to ensure no Demon Envoys are overlooked.”
” The cultivators from the Enforcement Hall who conduct the inspections must strictly perform their duties, they can’t affect the normal life of the surrounding cultivators, nor can they pass it off sloppily, too casually.”
“Yes, Senior Brother Lei, I’ll personally supervise it, ensuring that no Demon Envoys are missed.”
Ling Peng nodded heavily.
Not far away, Lu Xuan was staring at the Wang Family compound with intensity in his gaze.
He noticed the moment thunder appeared but didn’t look at it directly, leaving his eyes unaffected.
The Enforcement Hall Cultivator who released such a powerfully potent formula method didn’t involve Lu Xuan’s small courtyard, showing his superb control of spiritual power.
Lu Xuan was ready for combat, with talisman tools nearby in his hands.
Fortunately, the cultivator who came to deal with the demon envoy was powerful and left no stray remnants of the demon envoy to infiltrate Lu Xuan’s courtyard.
“The reporting magic technique is really the best…”
Lu Xuan breathed a sigh. He had been aware of the baby’s scream. Even though he wasn’t the primary target of the scream, he couldn’t help but feel his head swell and his movements slow.
If he had to face it directly, he could not guarantee he could deal with the demon envoy easily.
Luckily, he previously invoked the reporting magic technique, using others’ force against themselves, and lured out two high-tier Qi Practitioners from the Enforcement Hall who took care of Wang Shan, who was contaminated by the demon envoy.
“When I reported it, I mentioned that Wang Shan was abnormal and said in passing that Tan Xiao Dong might deliberately be covering for him.”
“Now that Wang Shan has been proven to be infiltrated by the demon envoy, Tan Xiao Dong has no excuse. Even if he eventually proves irrelevant to the demon envoy, he cannot escape being accused of negligence.”
Lu Xuan sat at the table, motionless.
Wang Shan and the demon envoy had just been dealt with, and it was a sensitive period. As a neighbor, he was naturally the subject of much attention, so it was best not to make any movements for the time being and stay at home.
As expected, within half an hour, three middle-stage Qi Practitioners came to his home to inspect.
“Apologies for the disturbance, fellow cultivator. Tonight, the Enforcement Hall found a powerful demon envoy nearby. After the solution, to avoid the possibility of its hidden access to cultivators’ homes, and to ensure all cultivators’ safety, we must do a detailed check. We kindly seek your understanding,” said the leader with a smile to Lu Xuan.
“Three middle-stage Qi practitioners. What a mighty force.”
Lu Xuan exclaimed quietly to himself and replied,
“It’s not a problem. Let this cultivator be at ease to do the inspection. I have no objections.”
“Thank you for your cooperation.”
The leader made a hand gesture towards Lu Xuan and took out a white jade Buddha statue from his storage bag.
The Buddha statue stood about three inches tall, smiled gently, and had a layer of hazy spiritual light emitting from it.
The cultivator manipulated the spiritual energy in his body, cast a spell, and whipped a wave of spiritual power onto the surface of the Buddha statue.
In an instant, the hazy spiritual light suddenly flourished. Like ripples, it swept across Lu Xuan and his courtyard.
As the faint spiritual light swept over, Lu Xuan felt himself becoming immaculate and clear-minded in an instant, untainted by dust.
After sweeping over the entire courtyard, the spiritual light receded back into the Buddha statue. The Buddha statue was still emitting a hazy spiritual light and showed no abnormalities.
“It’s done. We didn’t detect any anomalies. We apologize for the disturbance.”
The leader tucked away the white jade Buddha statue, and together with the other two, rushed towards the next house.
“Did they finish?”
Lu Xuan was perplexed in his heart. He had initially prepared for the likelihood of the spirit plants in his spirit field being exposed. He didn’t expect the Enforcement Hall Cultivator’s inspection technique to be this simple.
“It seems that Tan Xiao Dong indeed had the intention to swindle me the last time.”
“He thought I was just a third layer Qi Cultivation no-organization Spirit Plant Master and wanted to thoroughly search under the premise of performing an inspection.”
“But he probably didn’t anticipate the price he would pay for a few spirit stones.”
Lu Xuan laughed and returned inside his house..
