Chapter 242: Chapter 111: Millennia-Old Noble Family! Demon Monster Crystalization!_3
Having finished bathing, Su Changkong stood in front of a copper mirror, drying his body, admiring the distinct and perfect physique reflected in the mirror. Feeling good after having eliminated the threat, he couldn’t help but exclaim, “Such a perfect body—I wonder which woman will be lucky enough to have it in the future…”
“Has the youngest brother returned?”
Not long after, upon learning of Su Changkong’s return, Sikong Huang and Sikong Zhan were undoubtedly overjoyed, and they met with Su Changkong at the first opportunity.
Not long ago, Gong Ba met his death at the hands of Feng Mo, and Sikong Huang as well as Sikong Zhan knew in their hearts that Feng Mo’s next target was very likely Su Changkong, who was disguised as ‘Sikong Yong’.
And to avoid unnecessary casualties and not to be hindered by others, Su Changkong had chosen to leave the Giant Whale Gang alone.
Both Sikong Huang and Sikong Zhan were worried to the extreme in their hearts.
Su Changkong was strong—that they knew, but his opponent was Feng Mo! A real Demon Monster!
Even experts like Sikong Yong and Gong Ba had lost their lives to Feng Mo, and whether Su Changkong could be an exception was something they had no confidence in.
But now that Su Changkong had returned safely, did this indicate that he had already dealt with the threat?
“Big brother, second sister, why have both of you come together?” Fresh from his bath and seeing the two of them hurry over, he greeted them.
“You’re unharmed… that’s great.” Sikong Zhan couldn’t help asking, “Did Feng Mo come for you? What was the outcome?”
Sikong Huang also looked at Su Changkong with immense curiosity.
Hearing this, Su Changkong smiled and said, “He did come for me. I originally wanted to have a good talk with him, but he insisted on treating me as food, so I had no choice but to send him on his way.”
As soon as these words came out, Sikong Huang and Sikong Zhan exchanged a look, both seeing the joy and shock in each other’s eyes.
They were joyful, of course, because Su Changkong had returned unharmed, and even more so because he had slain their father’s murderer. But they were shocked because that murderer was a Demon Monster! One that couldn’t be killed even when beheaded, possessing an Immortal Body!
Yet even so, Feng Mo was still slain by Su Changkong!
Su Changkong seemed like an undefeated War God, no matter who the enemy was—human or ghost—he always created miracles!
“Let’s not talk about this matter with anyone else, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble,” Su Changkong instructed Sikong Huang and Sikong Zhan.
Su Changkong had always kept a low profile; fame was of no use to him, but rather a burden. Quietly cultivating and strengthening himself was the true path.
“Mm.”
Both of them nodded in agreement.
Having slain the Demon Monster that had plagued Ink Forest Prefecture City, such news would definitely make the Giant Whale Gang’s reputation soar, but too much attention was not a good thing—everything should be in moderation!
Ink Forest Prefecture City was still a place where everyone felt insecure; the death of Gong Ba, the guardian deity of Ink Forest Prefecture City, undoubtedly caused many people to despair. If even Gong Ba died at the hands of a Demon Monster, who could stop it if it appeared again?
“Strange… Normally, that Murdering Demon would stir up trouble every three to five days, but now a week has passed without any movement!”
“Could that Murdering Demon have been exterminated?”
People also noticed that the indiscriminate Murdering Demon, since killing Gong Ba, had vanished without a trace and no longer caused chaos.
“The Murdering Demon has been exterminated! We can all return to our normal lives now!”
Soon after, such a message was circulated from the officialdom of Ink Forest Prefecture City, confirming that the Murdering Demon had been exterminated!
Everyone thought the Murdering Demon was just a strong, cruel Martial Artist; they didn’t know that their adversary wasn’t human at all, but a Demon Monster. The officials had some reasons to withhold this information.
“That’s great! No more worrying and being scared!”
“Someone eradicated that Murdering Demon? Which heroic figure did it?”
Without a doubt, with this news out, the whole Ink Forest Prefecture City was in celebration.
In the past, fearing the indiscriminate Murdering Demon, everyone had to stay indoors as soon as night fell, but now, with the threat gone, they could return to their old lives!
As for who had slain the Murdering Demon, the officials of Ink Forest Prefecture City did not disclose it, and the fundamental reason… was that they themselves did not know.
In the blink of an eye, it had been over half a month, and at that time in the Prefecture Yamen, Gong Yulong was receiving a guest, with cold sweat running down his forehead.
“Gong Yulong, could it be you didn’t take my words to heart?”
Dressed in white robes, the handsome Mu Jin stared coldly at Gong Yulong, his eyes filled with chilling coldness causing Gong Yulong to feel as if he fell into an ice cave.
“This Mu Jin comes from Dafeng State City; he is a disciple of a millennium-old family… too terrifying. He feels more frightening to me than that Demon Monster!”
Gong Yulong’s heart was twitching painfully—he had previously met Feng Mo, which had greatly startled him, but this Mu Jin felt even more terrifying to him!
At least when facing the Demon Monster, Gong Yulong knew the creature was cruel and utterly wicked, but Mu Jin was unpredictable and almost seemed insane. Angering him could lead to anything happening!
Hearing Mu Jin’s interrogation, Gong Yulong secretly cursed his luck, a look of injustice on his face: “Mr. Mu, how dare I be negligent in the slightest! I’ve already given you all the information on the experts skilled in the Blade Technique with Qi Blood Four Transformation, and these are all the high-level experts we have!”
During this period, Mu Jin had not given up on recovering the precious Demon Monster’s Crystal Core.
Following the clue that the person who killed the Demon Monster was skilled with blade techniques, Mu Jin went to Magistrate Gong Yulong, asking him to provide information on all experts in Ink Forest Prefecture City who were above the Qi Blood Four Transformation and adept with blade techniques. Moreover, he visited and interrogated them one by one, but to no avail, which made Mu Jin grow increasingly irritable.
