Kryptonian fate deduction, invincibility starts from killing monsters

What made Shen Lin feel strange was that, even with his current cultivation at the Treasure Liquid Realm, he could still sense a trace of pressure from the other party.

The other party was definitely not as simple as someone at the Acquired Realm.

The black-clothed man had a stern expression and didn't seem to recognize him at all, only saying coldly, "My master invites you!"

After speaking, he led Shen Lin inside.

"Greetings, County Deputy Zhong!"

Shen Lin cupped his fist and bowed.

Behind the willow wood table, County Deputy Zhong raised his head, shifting his attention from a painting to Shen Lin, revealing a surprised expression.

"Acquired Realm?"

Shen Lin's body trembled, his eyes appearing somewhat flustered, as if he was uncomfortable being seen through his realm at a glance.

But in reality, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

If the black-clothed man from before gave him a sense of pressure, and he still had a chance to resist, then County Deputy Zhong in front of him gave Shen Lin a feeling of an boundless deep sea.

It was as if the other party only needed to exert pressure, and he would be like a drowning person, directly submerged.

This County Deputy Zhong's strength was definitely far beyond Gao Shenghan, and might even be beyond the Treasure Liquid Realm.

But even so, what made Shen Lin somewhat gratified was that the other party still couldn't see through his true strength.

Not long ago, Shen Lin discovered that if he placed that drop of liquid spiritual energy in the thirteenth meridian, the spiritual energy fluctuations it emitted would be completely contained, and the aura of the Treasure Liquid Realm would be completely concealed.

Now, after a little experimentation, Shen Lin felt relieved.

It seemed that his method of concealing his strength should be undetectable to ordinary people.

What made Shen Lin a little puzzled was, what exactly was the identity of this County Deputy Zhong?

There were not many Acquired Realm experts in the entire Qiulin County, but one of the other party's followers was at the Treasure Liquid Realm, and his own strength was even more unfathomable.

Zhong Baiyu smiled, looking at Shen Lin's flustered appearance and comforting him, "Don't worry, I don't care what opportunities you've had to become an Acquired Realm expert in such a short period of time, it's just..."

He stared at Shen Lin for a while, sighed, and shook his head, saying, "That girl actually taught you the Violet Dawn Mystic Force, and you have a good talent, having cultivated the Violet Dawn Mystic Force as soon as you became an Acquired Realm expert..."

"Does the County Deputy know Purple Crystal?"

Shen Lin asked curiously.

It was nothing that the other party could see through the details of the spiritual energy in his body, but what made Shen Lin strange was the tone of this County Deputy when addressing Purple Crystal, which carried a sense of doting on a junior.

"Her family's master once entrusted me to take care of her."

Shen Lin suddenly understood.

In this way, the reason why the black-clothed youth helped that night during the prison break was clear.

Purple Crystal even guessed that they were reinforcements he had called, and never thought that the person was helping her.

Zhong Baiyu seemed to have recalled some past events, and after being in a daze for a while, he came back to his senses, looked at Shen Lin, and frowned, "The Violet Dawn Mystic Force is an extremely profound technique, and being able to cultivate it will be of great help to you. It's just... there are too many people who covet this technique. It's okay in this Qiulin County, but if you go to the Prefecture, people with ulterior motives will be able to see the origin of your technique at a glance."

As he spoke, he hesitated for a moment, took out a thin book from his bosom, and threw it over.

"This is a method that can disguise the nature of the spiritual energy in your body, and can also be used to conceal your cultivation. As long as you don't use your full strength, it should be able to help you hide from many people. In the future, try not to use your full strength when there are many people."

Shen Lin took the book and said thank you.

He didn't actually need this kind of method. With the thirteenth meridian, he could freely convert the nature of the spiritual energy in his body.

In the future, he only needed to maintain the spiritual energy cultivated by the Green Hill Body Tempering Art to the outside world.

Seeing Shen Lin accept the book, Zhong Baiyu said, "Alright, that's all I can help you with. If you have anything else, hurry up and say it, I'm leaving Qiulin County tonight."

Purple Crystal had already left, and it was meaningless for him to stay here.

"It's like this, the demons of Black Wind Fortress have all been cleaned up by me, and I want the County Magistrate to send someone to help me collect the reward from the Demon Suppression Division..."

Zhong Baiyu didn't seem surprised that Shen Lin had single-handedly challenged Black Wind Fortress.

With the other party's talent, Acquired Realm strength, and having cultivated the Violet Dawn Mystic Force, it really wasn't difficult to deal with the demons in this small place.

He nodded and said, "There's no need to trouble the County Magistrate for this matter. I'll send someone to bring down the corpses of those demons and report them to the Prefecture."

Shen Lin hesitated for a moment, shook his head, and said, "This subordinate still wants to report to the County Magistrate in person. I wonder if the Lord knows where County Magistrate Lin is at the moment?"

As soon as these words came out, County Deputy Zhong's eyes changed.

He sized up Shen Lin, and after seeing the Cloud Pattern Saber at his waist, he revealed a smile and said, "Those useless people from the Youzhou Demon Suppression Division have finally discovered that guy's identity?"

Shen Lin was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously asked, "The County Deputy knows his identity? Then why..."

"Why didn't you eliminate the demon earlier? Why did you allow him to harm so many innocent people?"

County Deputy Zhong directly spoke out Shen Lin's doubts, sighed, and said, "Do you know how fierce the struggle between the Myriad Demon Kingdom and my Great Wei is?

They have planted a nail like Lin Youwei in my Great Wei, intending to use this to infiltrate the dynasty, don't we take the same measures?

Through this nail of Lin Youwei, the Great Wei court has placed many people in the Myriad Demon Kingdom.

That Mimicry demon sent some humans with rare bloodlines to the Myriad Demon Kingdom under the guise of corvée labor. Not all of those people are ordinary people."

Hearing this, Shen Lin frowned and said, "What about those ordinary people? How many innocent people have there been over the years..."

County Deputy Zhong shook his head and sighed, "The struggle between people and demons, between countries, is not a drinking banquet, there must always be a price to pay."

After Shen Lin was silent for a long time, he asked, "Then according to the County Deputy's meaning, Lin Youwei cannot be eliminated now?"

"That's not necessarily so!" County Deputy Zhong chuckled and said, "Now that his identity has been exposed, keeping him will only create flaws."

After saying this, he looked out the window, his gaze crossing the window and pointing directly at a high mountain outside the city.

"Facing Sun Taoist Temple, that guy is now hiding there!"

Shen Lin obtained the information he needed, stood up, and bowed to County Deputy Zhong, saying, "Thank you, County Deputy!"

After he left, the black-clothed man who had been standing on the side with his arms crossed suddenly spoke, "Old Niu's nose is a seasoned Acquired Realm expert, and I even suspect that the other party has broken through to the Treasure Liquid Realm. Are you not afraid of problems if you let him go?"

County Deputy Zhong looked at the other party with some surprise, and smiled, "Why are you suddenly concerned about this person? Haha, it doesn't matter. Since the Demon Suppression Division has come to the door, they will definitely not let him act alone."
