Chapter 80, the 3rd profession, is now available!
Previously, when Jiang Qi entered the Demon Suppression Division, Wu Yue and Ye Lan came to the Water Pavilion to congratulate him. It seems that they mentioned at the time that they would be going out of the city to escort goods.
I never imagined that our reunion would be like this.
Wu Yue was controlled by an evil spirit, and Ye Lan...
Ye Family Village... Ye Lan...
......
Seeing the person blocking his way stop, Wu Yue instantly transformed his hands into sharp claws and viciously grabbed at Jiang Qi.
"well..."
A thought flashed through his mind, and Jiang Qi flipped the cold blade in his hand, slashing out with a sharp, cold slash.
"Sizzle!"
With a piercing scream, the terrifying force slammed Wu Yue's body down.
Wang Zhe and Lu Jing leaped forward simultaneously from the left and right, taking control of Wu Yue.
Lan Jing frowned and walked over. She glanced at Wu Yue, who was possessed by the evil spirit, and seeing that he was powerless to resist, she looked at Jiang Qi again, her tone slightly somber:
"When facing evil and wickedness, the slightest hesitation could harm yourself or even your companions."
"Yes." Jiang Qi cupped his hands in greeting, offering no further argument.
Lan Jing paused for a moment, then asked, "Do you know him?"
She could see clearly that Jiang Qi's hesitation just now was not out of fear.
The fact that the promising young man specially recruited by Lord Shen hesitated for a moment can most likely only be explained by one thing: the blood servant in front of him is an acquaintance.
Jiang Qi stood with his sword drawn, looking at Wu Yue, whose face was now unrecognizable, and said in a deep voice, "My senior brother who trained with me at the Zhenyuan Martial Arts School was named Wu Yue."
Upon hearing this, Lan Jing's expression changed slightly. He simply nodded and said nothing more.
Once, one of her closest relatives was possessed by an evil spirit, and as the Demon Suppressor, she had no choice but to kill him.
She deeply understood this hesitation and the pain involved.
At this time.
Swish!
A black aura, different from that of the Blood Servant, shot out from the courtyard and headed straight for Lu Jing, who was the weakest among them.
Lu Jing was stunned and seemed not to have reacted.
next moment.
A cold glint flashed.
"Hiss!" The black mist screamed and turned into wisps of dissipating black smoke.
Lu Jing stared at the black smoke, her heart pounding, before she realized how dangerous it had just been.
She quickly circulated her qi and blood to suppress her fear, then turned to Jiang Qi and cupped her hands in thanks: "Thank you."
Jiang Qi nodded slightly, his gaze lowered.
On the [Book of a Hundred Trades]:
【Occupation: Demon Slayer (Level 3, job advancement available)】
[Level: 1 (1/100)]
[Effect: Increases damage against evil spirits and demons; grants immunity to low-level mental manipulation; can absorb the remnants of evil spirits and convert them into class experience]
A third profession!
"Demon Slayer!"
"Increased damage...Immune to Bewitchment..."
The information flowed through the Heavenly Book, filling Jiang Qi with joy.
He had previously wondered if there were "water workers" in water workshops and "martial arts practitioners" in martial arts schools, and if he joined the Demon Suppression Division, should he also have a profession?
However, no new professions appeared in the [Hundred Trades Heavenly Book] during the half-month that the Demon Suppression Division was in place.
It seems that we need to carry out the tasks of the Demon Suppression Division, or to act as Demon Suppression Guards to slay demons and monsters.
Just then.
Bang!Bang!
A few more sounds came from inside the courtyard, then silence fell, indicating that the battle was over.
"Let's go inside."
Lan Jing led Jiang Qi and the other two into the courtyard.
The moonlight spilled down, illuminating the small courtyard.
The moment you step inside, you feel the chill and the stench of blood.
In front of the house, several corpses lay scattered about, none of them intact.
In the middle, there are two evil, bloodthirsty servants kneeling on the ground, unable to get up.
Wang Lang stood to the side, and the mere aura and pressure he exuded caused the two blood servants to kneel on the ground and not get up.
Clearly, the evil forces involved in this incident weren't too strong. With Lan Jing and Wang Lang in charge, this group of newcomers managed to take them down without much trouble.
Han Jun, Pei Guan, and the others looked excited; it was their first time suppressing a ghost, and they were quite thrilled.
But Zhang Xiao, the only one, stared blankly ahead.
Upon seeing Jiang Qi enter, Zhang Xiao raised his head and gestured for him to look at the two possessed individuals.
Jiang Qi sensed something and followed the gaze, his expression slightly pausing.
One of the two evil individuals was Ye Lan.
Wu Yue and Ye Lan were the outer courtyard geniuses of Zhenyuan Martial Arts School. They were the first among them to be promoted to the inner courtyard and become bodyguards, with a bright future ahead of them.
In the end, this is how it ended.
Recalling that day at the water pavilion, Ye Lan's hurried words before leaving, Jiang Qi's heart still rippled.
"Seal off all evil energy and tie them up."
Wang Lang and Lan Jing exchanged a glance, and then Han Jun and Wang Zhe tied up the three people possessed by evil spirits.
The mission of the Demon Suppression Division is not only to exterminate evil spirits, but also to find out the reasons for their existence through them.
Furthermore, although the three are possessed by evil spirits, they still have a chance to survive.
This can be achieved by letting the evil spirit leave the body and actively letting go of the possessing person.
However, it is extremely difficult.
Evil spirits are inherently beings of resentment, and if they know they are about to die, there's a 99% chance they'll drag the possessed person down with them.
"Let's go, let's go somewhere else."
Lan Jing waved his hand, and the group escorted the Blood Servant out of the courtyard.
Not only is there something sinister in Ye Family Village, but there are also several other places that show signs of evil. The two plan to let the newcomers face these things on their own.
Han Jun walked up to Zhang Xiao and asked in a low voice, "Are you alright?"
"Thank you, Brother Xie Jun." Zhang Xiao bowed and expressed his gratitude.
Just now in the courtyard, he hesitated when facing Ye Lan. Fortunately, Han Jun intervened in time, otherwise he would definitely have been injured.
Han Jun waved his hand dismissively: "It's good that you're alright. Tomorrow, I'll go to your house and see your older brother."
"Ah?" Zhang Xiao's expression changed instantly. His previously heavy mood turned into panic. "Um, my older brother..."
"Hehehe!"
Before Zhang Xiao could utter more than a few words, a cold wind suddenly swept in from the village entrance.
"not good!"
Lan Jing and Wang Lang simultaneously flashed to the front, drawing their swords to block the crowd from the yin wind.
The gust of wind was incredibly fast; in the blink of an eye, it lunged forward, its claws outstretched, and reached the group.
"Destroy!"
Lan Jing and Wang Lang attacked simultaneously, their cold lights slashing towards the evil creature.
Sizzle... sizzle...
After about five or six cuts, the evil creature was destroyed.
The two breathed a sigh of relief and were about to sheathe their knives to check when another strange phenomenon occurred.
Wu Yue, Ye Lan, and the other two evil spirits suddenly vomited black blood, their faces turned pitch black, and their bodies swelled up.
Before anyone could react.
Bang!Bang!Bang!
The three possessed by evil spirits burst open like bubbles.
Limbs and severed arms splattered onto Han Jun, Wang Zhe, Zhang Xiao, and others.
Jiang Qi reacted quickly and dodged in time, but a piece of his body still rolled towards him.
It belongs to Ye Lan.
"Heh, I thought it was some big shot, but it's just a few small fry."
A mocking voice came from ahead.
Looking up, they saw Tan Zonghan, the Demon Suppression Division's Evil Suppression Officer, and three Demon Suppression Guards escorting a man with a face full of black aura as they slowly walked over.
Lan Jing and Wang Lang looked at the three evil spirits who had exploded, their eyes flashing with anger.
What just happened was clearly Tan Zonghan deliberately mocking them!
"You two," Tan Zonghan said, noticing their displeased expressions and the fact that they showed no sign of apology, but instead wore a slightly cold expression, "seem to be dissatisfied with me?"
Lan Jing and Wang Lang's expressions changed several times, but considering Tan Zonghan's status as the Evil Suppressor, they finally clasped their hands in greeting and said, "Greetings, Evil Suppressor Tan."
Tan Zonghan stepped forward, crushed the severed limbs under his feet, glanced indifferently at the group, then turned around and left with his hands behind his back.
Three lives that could have been saved were killed by Tan Zonghan and his gang, who used them as tools to mock others.
