Knock knock knock --
Following a crisp knock on the door.
Gu Cheng pushed the door open and walked in, holding a mahogany food box in his hand as usual.
Xu Nianxue looked up and smiled knowingly.
Gu Cheng was not at home a few days ago, and she had some withdrawal reactions without the "owner" feeding her every morning.
Now that the owner is back, she can see the mahogany food box every day, and a familiar sense of security suddenly arises.
Unconsciously, she has fallen in love with this monotonous but warm daily life.
Xu Nianxue looked up and looked at Gu Cheng quietly.
Seeing that he had not changed except for his handsome appearance, she felt relieved.
Come to think of it, if this guy can improve his cultivation every now and then, it would be too abnormal, right?
However, what Miss Xu did not expect was.
The reason why she did not perceive the subtle changes in Gu Cheng this time.
It was simply because the latter's spiritual cultivation was higher than hers, so there was no flaw at all...
"What? Have you finished copying this secret book?"
Gu Cheng put the mahogany lunch box on the table. Seeing that Xu Nianxue was not writing furiously today, his eyes moved slightly.
He reached out to take a few secret books and flipped through them casually.
"I have copied them... but don't worry, I have to check them carefully a few more times."
Xu Nianxue was quite serious about her work and explained seriously:
"This ancestral spiritual killing move is extremely obscure and difficult to understand, and a slight mistake can lead to a thousand miles of difference.
If I make a mistake, and you practice it wrong and get into trouble, I can't bear the responsibility."
"It's okay, I believe you, you won't be wrong..."
Gu Cheng looked confident.
Because as he quickly flipped through the handwritten copy in his hand, the panel soon had new prompts.
[Breaking the Ordinary (Treasure)·Crimson Palace Heavenly Thunder Attraction: Uninitiated]
A precious secret method?
Gu Cheng's breathing became rapid.
Having practiced "Blue Dragon Hundred Refining", he has personally experienced the value of the prefix "Treasure".
It is not an exaggeration to say that it is an SSR among the secret manuals of the same level of skills.
What's more, this secret method is still in the realm of breaking the ordinary. In terms of preciousness, it is even far above "Blue Dragon Hundred Refining".
If it were to be leaked to the outside world, it would definitely cause a bloody storm!
After a moment of excitement, a hint of surprise flashed in Gu Cheng's eyes.
This Miss Xu has been copying for so many days, which made him a little suspicious. Is she deliberately fooling around?
Who knew that the other party was so honest that she actually took out her family's golden signboard!
"This should be the [Thunder Method] of your Xu family, right? You passed it to me so easily?"
Gu Cheng looked at Xu Nianxue with suspicion.
This gift was so valuable that it was hard not to think too much.
"Of course, you deserve it."
Xu Nianxue nodded slightly, her fair and pretty face full of seriousness.
"My Yunzhou Xu family has always taken it as our responsibility to punish evil and eliminate evil. We never cherish our fellow practitioners."
"As long as you are talented and your character can be recognized by the Xu family, even if you are a person of another surname, you can be granted the thunder method!"
"Of course, this thunder method can only be learned by yourself, and cannot be passed on privately."
Miss Xu opened the food box, reached out and took out a steamed dumpling, and ate while admonishing:
"In addition, you must think clearly.
When you learn the thunder method of my Xu family, once you perform it in front of outsiders, you will automatically be labeled as the "heir of the Xu family."
"My Xu family has an irreconcilable feud with many demons and evil forces.
If you reveal that you know the thunder method, they may try every means to come to you for trouble.
You must think clearly about this..."
There is such a good thing?
After listening to Xu Nianxue's persuasion, Gu Cheng was even more tempted.
With his current speed of strength improvement, he probably shouldn't worry about demons and evil cultivators looking for trouble with him.
Instead, he should worry about these demons and evil cultivators, which are simply not enough for him to kill!
So Gu Cheng didn't hesitate at all and put all the thick stack of secret books into the storage bag.
Xu Nianxue had already expected the other party to have such a reaction, and with a slight smile on her lips, she added:
"The power of this soul-refining killing move is unparalleled, but the difficulty of practicing it is also beyond imagination.
Under the careful guidance of the elders of my family, it took me nearly two and a half years to achieve a little success."
"Your talent for soul-refining is much stronger than mine. I'm afraid you can catch up with my progress in about a year, right?"
Xu Nianxue analyzed like this. She has overestimated the other party's talent as much as possible.
But unfortunately.
This XuThe eldest lady knows nothing about the world of cheaters.
"..."
Gu Cheng smiled slightly and did not answer.
One year?
What a joke.
If he had not had too little remaining lifespan.
I am afraid Xu Nianxue would not have finished eating this tray of steamed dumplings.
He has already mastered the "Crimson Palace Heavenly Thunder Guide" to perfection!
-----------------
After consulting Xu Nianxue briefly about the experience of practicing thunder magic.
Gu Cheng walked out of the house and reported to the Demon Suppression Department.
As soon as he stepped into the gate of the Demon Suppression Department.
Two small flag officers who had been waiting at the door for a long time immediately came up and respectfully invited him to the Qianhu Office.
Qianhu Zhao was not in the study this time, but sat in the main seat in the middle hall.
Wearing a black official uniform, matched with his graying temples and a cold expression, he looked majestic without anger.
On the seats on both sides of the central hall, six figures wearing silver-white centurion official uniforms sat upright.
The Changle County Demon Suppression Division branch originally had ten centurions.
As a result, a few months ago, Blood Lady killed two of them, including Gu Cheng's father.
After that, Gu Cheng successively killed Tang Yuan and Zheng Kun, causing the recent leadership team of the government to be seriously insufficient.
Including him, the newly promoted centurion, there are only seven people.
This time, Captain Zhao summoned all the existing seven centurions, obviously there was something extremely important to say.
Gu Cheng stretched out his hand and placed it on the handle of Mo Yu's knife, and stepped into the central hall.
The centurions looked over and immediately smiled, nodding to the rising newcomer.
Gu Cheng nodded politely in response, walked all the way to the seat on the left of Captain Zhao and sat down, just facing Lin Qingyan on the right.
The two looked at each other and nodded in tacit understanding, which was considered a greeting.
Look at the seat, know the status.
In less than two months.
Gu Cheng, a relative who was hated by everyone in the government, has transformed himself into a prominent figure second only to the captain.
"Ahem, are all the people here?"
Captain Zhao coughed twice, his eyes swept through everyone like a hawk, and said seriously:
"I believe you have heard that Captain Zheng was killed by the evil cultivators of the Rebirth Sect yesterday afternoon..."
The captains looked solemn, and their faces were so gloomy that water seemed to drip out.
Although there were captains who died in the line of duty while performing tasks before, they were all unpredictable sacrifices.
This time, they were killed by the demons and evil cultivators, which was completely different.
Gu Cheng's eyes flashed with a strangeness, he really didn't expect that the Rebirth Sect would take the blame this time.
Lin Qingyan, who was sitting opposite, glanced at Gu Cheng quietly, and then quickly retracted her gaze.
"... The resurgence of the Rebirth Sect this time is no longer something that our Changle County branch can solve.
I have reported to the headquarters in Tianshui City. Within ten days, a general will lead a team to thoroughly search Black Wind Mountain."
Captain Zhao took a deep breath and continued:
"During this period of time, in order to prevent the evil practitioners of the Rebirth Sect from jumping off the wall.
We must be extremely alert and raise the security level of Changle County to the highest level!"
All the centurions responded to the words.
Although they did not know the details, they did not know why the Rebirth Sect suddenly went crazy.
But this time it was Captain Zheng who died, so next time, would they be the ones to die?
Under the grief of the rabbit's death, everyone naturally had no objection to Captain Zhao's arrangement.
After that, Captain Zhao began to assign tasks in an orderly manner.
Although he is usually lazy, he does a good job at the critical moment.
Gu Cheng was assigned the task of patrolling the outer area of Black Wind Mountain to prevent demons from taking advantage of the chaos to attack the surrounding villages.
This was exactly what he wanted. In order to practice "Crimson Palace Heavenly Thunder Attraction", he could take the opportunity to replenish his lifespan.
After the tasks were assigned, the centurions said goodbye and left.
Gu Cheng was about to go out with Lin Qingyan, but Captain Zhao suddenly stopped him:
"Xiao Cheng, come on, I have something to talk to you about alone..."
