Chapter 128

In Grand Dominance’s Yangshe Province, a village was in a chaos .

Avian demons swooped down, grabbing men and women, especially the beautiful women, and even some children .

“Demons, stop!”

“Kill them!”

“Kill these demons!” The village watch looked on in anger as they aimed their crossbows .

“Hahaha…” The avian demons flew down wantonly and easily killed the village watchmen . Some were even caught alive .

Soon .

The large group of avian demons flew off with some of the humans, leaving the villagers feeling devastated . Nearly a hundred villagers had died in the attack, and more than a hundred villagers had been abducted . People lost their friends and family!

“My child! Child!”

“Mother! Mother!”

“Father!”

There were sobs coming from every corner of the village .

…

Early in the morning . Grand Dominance County Governor Manor .

County Governor Song was holding a huge spear as he practiced his spear arts on the training grounds . It was the last month of the year and it was very cold . After some practice, County Governor Song’s body warmed up greatly .

“Phew . ” He exhaled a breath of air that turned into a white mist .

“This year is much colder than usual . ” County Governor Song placed his spear to the side, and was immediately handed a fox fur coat by a nearby servant . County Governor Song felt a lot warmer after putting it on .

The commander standing beside him said with a smile, “Lord County Governor, it’s best you focus on cultivation . If your Qi Refinement realm attains a higher stage, you might even be able to endure a little cold . “

“Sigh, I really lack the talent . I’m helpless,” said County Governor Song with a laugh .

“Lord! Lord!” A guard dashed over from afar as County Governor Song turned around .

The guard respectfully handed him an envelope . “A letter from Yangshe Province . “

“Oh?”

County Governor Song took it calmly, but his expression changed when he opened it and read its contents .

“What happened?” The commander walked over .

“Old Ceng, take a look . ” County Governor Song handed the letter to the commander . After a careful read, the commander could not help but exclaim, “Ever since Water God was killed, Grand Dominance County no longer has any powerful great demons . Furthermore, the imperial government had sent manpower to kill the demons . Now, throughout all of Grand Dominance County… the demons are all very careful . If they attack humans, they do so covertly and would never dare to do it so blatantly . From the looks of it, another new great demon has appeared in Grand Dominance . “

“Hmph!”

County Governor Song grunted coldly . “This new great demon led a large group of demons, and most of them were avian demons! They wreaked havoc in Yangshe Province in such an unbridled fashion . Old Ceng, think of a way to send men to storm the area and vanquish that group of demons . My Grand Dominance County will not allow demons to establish themselves again!”

“Lord County Governor,” The commander shook his head and said . “It’s written in the letter that the new great demon can control the wind and fly . As long as it can fly, the troops we send will not even be able to touch it . Besides, great demons are not stupid . Since it dares to act so arrogantly, it probably has something backing it . Our only option is to implore truly powerful cultivators to deal with it . “

“Yes, he can fly . ” County Governor Song whispered, “Old Ceng, do you think I should report the matter to the higher-ups, or should I get Young Master Qin to lend a hand?”

“Young Master Qin is an Inspector Heavenly Ambassador . It is their job to slay fiendish demons,” said the commander . “Besides, Young Master Qin reviles fiends . He killed the water ape great demon . He is also a citizen of our Grand Dominance . If we ask for his help, I believe he will take action . “

“Okay . This is the first time I’m seeking his help ever since I took this job . ” County Governor Song nodded . “Let’s go to Qin Manor . “

Soon .

Qin Manor .

Qin Liehu led County Governor Song and Commander Ceng to Qin Yun’s compound .

“County Governor Song . ” Qin Yun and Yi Xiao were playing chess before the county governor arrived . They immediately rose to greet him .

“Young Master, Miss Yi,” County Governor Song immediately bowed . “I’m here to seek Young Master Qin’s help . “

“There is no need for such formalities . ” Qin Yun immediately extended his hand and held County Governor Song up with Heaven and Earth powers, preventing him from kneeling . “County Governor, please speak your mind . “

County Governor Song sighed and said, “When I became county governor of Grand Dominance, I had a thought that my job should be rather relaxed and simple, considering how Water God had been recently killed . But it turns out that with Water God gone from Grand Dominance County… a new great demon has appeared to take his place . “

“What? Another great demon has appeared?” Qin Yun’s eyes flashed with a cold glimmer . “Where? Which great demon?”

“This great demon is currently wreaking havoc in the Yangshe Province of our Grand Dominance County,” County Governor Song elaborated . “The great demon is adept at controlling the wind, allowing it to fly . It comes and goes without leaving a trace . As for what great demon it is, no one knows since it’s new . Perhaps, some demon leader has recently broken through to the Connate realm . At the moment, I have no means to deal with it . I can only implore Young Master Qin to lend a hand and save the local citizens from the misery . “

Qin Yun had grown up in a village from a young age, and so had witnessed his fair share of demons abducting villagers . The period when Water God wreaked havoc in Grand Dominance County was the darkest two centuries in Grand Dominance County’s history .

“As an Inspector Heavenly Ambassador, slaying fiendish demons is my responsibility,” said Qin Yun . “County Governor Song, do you have more detailed information?”

County Governor Song was delighted upon hearing that . “Young Master Qin, you are truly righteous . This is a letter sent from Yangshe Province . The information you seek is written in it . “

Qin Yun took the letter and gave it a look .

“More than ten villages have been attacked? More than a thousand abducted and hundreds of villagers killed?” Qin Yun was acutely aware that there was little chance that those who had been abducted were still alive .

“Leave this matter to me,” Qin Yun said with a nod . “County Governor Song, rest assured . “

“Then, I shall thank Young Master Qin on behalf of the citizens of Yangshe Province,” said County Governor Song immediately .

“I shall not delay any further . I will set off now,” said Qin Yun . “County Governor Song, sorry for not being able to entertain you . If I don’t act now, more humans might suffer . “

“Definitely . Slaying the demons is of utmost importance,” said County Governor Song immediately .

“Qin Yun, I’ll accompany you,” Yi Xiao instantly chimed in .

“Okay . Let’s go . ” Immediately, a beautiful silver flying sword appeared beneath Qin Yun and Yi Xiao . They rapidly took off, tearing through the sky and leaving County Governor Song and company nodding slightly .

County Governor Song, Commander Ceng, and Qin Liehu watched with their heads up .

“Young Master Qin is truly righteous,” complimented Commander Ceng .

“Yea, he immediately went to slay the demon the moment he heard the news . ” County Governor Song looked at Qin Liehu wistfully . “Old Qin, with an Inspector Heavenly Ambassador watching over our Grand Dominance County, its citizens will enjoy a better life . “

Qin Liehu nodded slightly as well as he watched Qin Yun and Yi Xiao disappear into the horizon .

Qin Liehu still remembered very clearly…

The young Qin Yun had practiced diligently with his sword . At the age of fifteen, he insisted on roaming the world alone so as to knock open the gate of immortality .

“In a blink of an eye, Yun’er is already able to protect the entire Grand Dominance County,” Qin Liehu said to himself .

******

Phew .

As Qin Yun wanted to reach Yangshe Province as soon as possible, he traveled using Sword Kinesis Flight . As his cultivation realm kept increasing, his speed via Sword Kinesis Flight became even faster .

“We have entered Yangshe Province . “

When they arrived in the first village they encountered in Yangshe Province, they scanned the area from above . Many of the villagers were dressed in white funeral garb . There was white paper money flying and many looking disconsolate . Qin Yun noticed at a glance that a woman was hugging a child’s cotton jacket while sobbing softly . It was as though she had fallen into a daze .

Qin Yun looked down silently .

“There are immortals!”

“Immortals!” The villagers in the village saw Qin Yun and Yi Xiao standing on a gigantic flying sword high in the sky .

“Immortals, save my wife . “

“Immortals, save my child . “

“Immortals…”

Immediately, many villagers knelt down, kowtowing and wailing at floating Qin Yun and Yi Xiao .

Qin Yun watched and whispered, “If they are still alive, I’ll bring them back . Unfortunately… many of them are probably…”

“Let’s go . ” Qin Yun nodded at Yi Xiao and continued their flight .

“Qin Yun, you are now an Inspector Heavenly Ambassador . Inspector Heavenly Ambassadors are meant to slay fiendish demons, and I believe the great demon that recently appeared in Grand Dominance County will know that as well . Yet, it wreaks havoc without restraint . Perhaps, it has something backing it . Maybe an extremely powerful life-preservation ability,” said Yi Xiao .

“We shall know when we see . Let’s see if the thing it’s relying on can match my flying sword!” said Qin Yun .

“It wreaks havoc around Yangshe Province, and mainly in the south . That means that the demon’s lair must be in this region . Perhaps, it’s in the mountains or the lakes,” suggested Yi Xiao .

Qin Yun nodded . “Since it’s their lair, there will definitely be many demons that have settled there . We should search the area carefully . “

Phew .

Qin Yun’s ability to sense the area through the Heaven and Earth powers allowed him to cover the surrounding fifteen kilometers .

In the enveloped region, the aura of living beings was concentrated in spots . Qin Yun would visit each area, finding more villages or even the remains of destroyed villages, where villagers were in pain from losing their loved ones . Qin Yun gradually turned silent .

…

In the deep valley of a huge mountain, there were many demons lurking in an area where few humans tread .

Cat Demon Queen was dressed in purple robes as she sat on a stone throne . Her fair legs were crossed as she leisurely looked into the sky as the demons around her waited upon her .

“Third Sister, I sense two lifeforms rapidly heading for us . Their speed is extraordinarily fast so they have to be cultivators! It’s very likely Qin Yun . ” Flood Dragon King, who was hiding, sent a voice transmission .

“Haha, it looks like our prey is here . ” Leopard Demon King joined in the voice transmission excitedly .

The corners of Cat Demon Queen’s mouth curled up as she said with a voice transmission, “Brothers, don’t worry . Hold it in . Don’t scare away our prey . Once they are trapped, we can slaughter that Qin Yun . “
