Kryptonian fate deduction, invincibility starts from killing monsters

Originally, Shen Lin was planning to leave after changing his clothes.

However, after looking at the dim sky, he decided to find a tavern to stay for the night.

After all, he had already sold his house when he left Qiulin County before.

Since the demon clan hadn't launched any incidents yet, it meant they weren't in a hurry.

So, he could afford to waste one night.

Besides that, Shen Lin also planned to deduce his cultivation techniques.

This time, in addition to the lifespan of over ten thousand demons, he also obtained a lot of spirit crystals.

Although not everyone who participated in the trial could afford to pay a thousand spirit crystals, they could still provide some.

Now, Shen Lin had more than thirty thousand spirit crystals lying in his Sumeru ring.

With this wealth, he could be considered a small rich man even in the imperial capital.

However, his desire to keep a low profile ultimately failed.

He had only shown his face in the tavern and eaten something.

The news of Shen Lin's return had already spread throughout the county.

After all, there were only a few warriors in the history of Qiulin County who could break through the Xiantian realm and enter the Demon Suppression Division.

Shen Lin opened the door and helplessly looked at Hu Xianwei and the other two imperial officials who had come to find him.

When he was rising to fame in Qiulin County, passersby on the street dared to recommend their daughters to him.

But now, after entering the Demon Suppression Division, only these three dared to take the initiative to come to his door.

"Captain Shen, am I disturbing you?"

Hu Dongxing scratched his head somewhat awkwardly.

From Shen Lin's previous low-key behavior, he could tell that the other party didn't want to attract too much attention.

Therefore, even though he and Shen Lin had a good relationship before, he didn't think about coming to visit.

But he couldn't resist his two immediate superiors who insisted on dragging him over.

The previous magistrate of Qiulin County was killed by Shen Lin.

County Secretary Zhong Baiyu also returned to the imperial capital after Zijing left.

The current two were newly appointed.

"Come in!"

Shen Lin helplessly invited the three in.

Before he could do anything, Hu Dongxing diligently poured tea and water.

After exchanging pleasantries, Shen Lin saw that they looked hesitant, as if they wanted to say something.

So he directly said, "My lords, is there something troubling you?"

The new magistrate of Qiulin County smiled wryly and said:

"Captain Shen, we didn't want to bother you either. It's just that recently, the activities of demons in Qiulin County have been a bit frequent."

"In just these five days, we have received news of at least a dozen villages suffering from demonic disasters."

"We have already sent out all the yamen runners in the county government."

"However, only less than 30% of them successfully killed the demons and returned."

"The others have completely disappeared without any news."

Hearing this, Shen Lin frowned slightly.

In the past, it was rare to see any demons committing crimes in Qiulin County throughout the year.

This was because the magistrate Lin Youwei at that time was from the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom and had greeted the other demon clans.

Now that Shen Lin had eliminated Lin Youwei, more demons would inevitably appear in Qiulin County.

Shen Lin had anticipated this.

But he didn't expect the situation to be so serious.

More than half of the yamen runners had disappeared, which ordinary demons could not have done.

Thinking of this, he asked with some doubt: "Didn't you ask the Demon Suppression Division in the prefecture for help?"

Generally, a county town would definitely choose to report to the Demon Suppression Division in this situation.

Those tasks in the Demon Suppression Division all came from this.

"We reported it!"

The county secretary of Qiulin County said somewhat helplessly: "But after reporting it, there was no response."

"I asked around and heard that the demonic disasters in various places in Youzhou have increased recently, and they can't spare any manpower."

Hearing this, Shen Lin suddenly remembered.

Before he participated in the Jing Yao Hou selection, he did find that there were fewer people in the Demon Suppression Division.

Had they all gone out on missions?

After thinking for a while, he asked, "So, do you mean you want me to eliminate those demons?"

The magistrate and the county secretary's faces showed ecstasy, and they were about to nod, but Hu Dongxing interjected:

"That... it's best for Captain Shen to report it and bring a few more Demon Suppression Division captains for safety."

Shen Lin turned to look at him and found that Hu Dongxing's face was serious, and he said in a deep voice:

"The yamen runners who were sent out were all good hands. If they only encountered ordinary demons, or even demons in the Kai Mai realm, it would be impossible for them to be completely wiped out. At least one or two should be able to escape."

"I suspect that there are many Xiantian realm existences among that group of demons."

Xiantian realm demons could almost walk sideways in a place like Qiulin County.

After Hu Dongxing finished speaking, the magistrate and the county secretary's faces looked a little ugly.

Shen Lin glanced at them and immediately understood their plans.

Hu Dongxing was still thinking that it was unsafe for him to go alone to slay demons.

But these two guys just wanted him to slay demons.

As for Shen Lin's safety, they hadn't even thought about it.

Understanding this, Shen Lin smiled and said: "I understand, I will go out and take a look tomorrow."

After receiving the reply, the magistrate seemed a little dissatisfied and eagerly said:

"Captain Shen, the matter of slaying demons should not be delayed."

Shen Lin's response to this was very simple.

"Get out!"

"County Constable Hu, stay behind."

The magistrate and the county secretary were directly stunned in place.

With their noble status, when had they ever been scolded like this?

They wanted to get angry, but when they thought of the other party's status as a Demon Suppression Division captain, even their rank was comparable to their own.

Helpless, the two snorted coldly and turned to leave.

Hu Dongxing looked at their departing figures and said helplessly: "Little friend Shen, why did you do that? Don't look down on them, they still have connections in Youzhou City."

Shen Lin smiled indifferently.

"It doesn't matter, you don't need to care."

With his current strength, even the Youzhou Shepherd Meng Xiaochen wouldn't dare to do anything to him.

Was he still afraid of two small seventh or eighth-rank officials?

He looked Hu Dongxing up and down and smiled: "County Constable Hu's strength has improved a lot."

At this moment, Hu Dongxing had already opened up five meridians.

He could already start preparing to break through to the Xiantian realm.

Hu Dongxing smiled and said: "I still have to thank you. Because you joined the Demon Suppression Division, the prefecture rewarded me with three Meridian Opening Pills."

"Meridian Opening Pills..."

Hearing this, Shen Lin suddenly seemed to remember something. He rummaged around his body and found a Sumeru ring.

The next moment, densely packed medicine bottles suddenly appeared on the table.

Hu Dongxing stared blankly at this scene.

"These are..."

Shen Lin shrugged indifferently and said: "Oh, these are all my previous spoils, spirit pills like Meridian Opening Pills. I can't use them anymore. I'll give them all to you."

"Can't use them..."

Hu Dongxing muttered to himself, then suddenly came back to his senses and looked at Shen Lin in disbelief: "Have you broken through to the Treasure Liquid Realm?"

Shen Lin smiled, but only said: "It's late, County Constable Hu should go back first. Don't worry about those demon clans, I will deal with them tomorrow."
