Junior Sister is skilled in subduing demons.

Chapter 57 The Demon Slayer

A strange mist hung over the village entrance, and faint eerie energy emanated from it.

Shen Anzhi walked at the forefront of the demon hunters. Upon seeing the demon hunters arrive, the demons revealed their ferocious faces and pounced on him. Shen Anzhi brandished his Jade Flower Sword, its blade gleaming, each strike precisely hitting the demons' vital points.

In an instant, shouts of battle and screams of agony filled the monster village. Some monsters tried to use their magic to attack Anzhi, but Anzhi was prepared. She chanted incantations, and a layer of golden light emanated from her body, blocking all the magic.

During the fierce battle, Anzhi discovers that the village chief of the monster village is a fox demon who has cultivated for a thousand years, and its demonic magic is the most powerful. Anzhi engages in a life-or-death struggle with the fox demon, the two exchanging blows without giving an inch.

Finally, Shen Anzhi unleashed her ultimate technique—the Tai Xuan Heavenly Escape—and a powerful sword aura from her Jade Flower Sword slashed towards the fox demon. Unable to dodge in time, the fox demon was struck by the sword aura and collapsed to the ground, turning into a wisp of green smoke.

With the death of the village chief, the other monsters lost their will to fight and fled in all directions. But Shen Anzhi did not let them go. She led the demon hunters to search the village and eliminate the remaining monsters one by one.

After the last monster was defeated, the monster village fell into a deathly silence. Shen Anzhi looked at the scene before him without a trace of pity. He knew that only by eliminating these evil monsters could the innocent people be protected.

"Haha, there's one more, there's one more."

As he spoke, Nie Zhenlin grabbed a dark, gooey object and threw it in front of the demon hunters.

The dark shape instantly transformed into a humanoid horse-faced creature, which knelt on the ground and pleaded, "Masters, masters, please spare us! We have never harmed a single person in the past thousand years! Please let us go!"

Faced with the horse-faced man's pleas, Kui Ran felt heartache once again. It was indeed the nature of a demon hunter to eradicate demons completely, but at least his nature had changed now. He had lost his true nature and even felt pity for demons.

Kui Ran pulled Nie Zhenlin aside and advised, "Brother, I think you should let him go."

"Ah! You released the demon?" Nie Zhenlin looked at Kui Ran in great surprise. He had only heard Shen Anzhi mention that Kui Ran was helping demons in Jingdezhen. At first, he didn't believe it, but now it seemed that Kui Ran was indeed no longer suitable to be a demon hunter.

Everyone heard Nie Zhenlin's voice, and Kui Ran looked extremely embarrassed.

Just then, Shen Anzhi, wielding the Jade Flower Sword, cast a disdainful glance at her, forcing Kui Ran to discreetly distance herself from them, as it was not appropriate for her to remain there at this moment.

"Master, don't listen to Ran Kui, he's a bad guy." The spirit snake suddenly poked its head out from the pet pocket at the waist.

Anzhi slowly raised the Jade Flower Sword. Before the horse-faced man could even cry out in pain, he swiftly brought the sword down, turning the horse-faced man into ashes.

In the afterglow of the setting sun, Shen Anzhi appeared exceptionally tall, as if she were already standing atop Mount Sanqing with the Demon-Slaying Sword in her hand.

In a short while, the monster village returned to peace.

Everything the monsters used in their lives vanished in a gust of wind.

"Hahaha, this is what you call exorcising demons! Start from the source! Otherwise, once these demons have cultivated enough, they'll leave the village and harm people outside." Ke Dasheng had a great time killing demons today; he'd never felt so good in his life.

Nie Zhenlin nodded repeatedly, holding the monster seal in his hand: "It would probably take ten years to find so many monsters outside. Boss Ke, it seems we've had good luck on this trip."

Upon hearing this, Shen Anzhi proudly sheathed his Jade Flower Sword and said to everyone, "Remember, everyone, we must exterminate all demons." "Alright, everyone quickly split up and search to see if there are any demons we've missed. We absolutely cannot let them escape, or the world will suffer again." Ke Dasheng quickly directed everyone to continue the search.

……

In this battle at the Monster Village, everyone obtained a total of 25 Monster Seals and 75 Demon Spirit Seals, which can be described as a great harvest. Especially Anzhi, look at the marks on her arm, she has advanced to the level of a six-coin demon hunter.

"Master, congratulations! You're one step closer to your dream of becoming a demon slayer," the spirit snake congratulated.

Shen Anzhi said with a hint of pride, "That's all thanks to the great guidance of our ancestor, isn't it, Snake Treasure?"

The serpent leaped out of the pet pouch: "Even with the best guidance, one still needs innate wisdom."

The words "wisdom root" seemed to have triggered Shen Anzhi's nerves. Her gaze quickly fell on Luo Ling, who was not far away. Luo Ling had often looked down on Shen Anzhi for not having wisdom root in the Sanqing Palace, and only placed her in the Sanqing Blessed Land in the end.

The Demon Seal is an essential item for demon hunters to advance in their ranks. Everyone reaped a great harvest in this battle, but there were two exceptions who got nothing: Kui Ran and Luo Ling.

Ke Dasheng held five monster seals and several spirit seals in his hand. His face was full of joy. He hadn't expected to have such a fruitful trip down the mountain. So he happily wanted to share some of the seals with Luo Ling and Shen Anzhi.

After careful consideration, Ke Dasheng presented two of the seals to Luo Ling.

"Here you go, hehe." Kodakson opened his palm, and two seals gleamed.

Luo Ling glanced at Shen Anzhi, who was glaring at her from a distance, and then said sarcastically, "You don't need to care about my feelings. Give it to that little brat. Humph, I'm not that important to you."

“You…” Ke Dasheng’s good mood vanished instantly, and he looked at Luo Ling speechlessly.

"What? Didn't I say that? Look at you, you've been completely infatuated with her all this way." Actually, Luo Ling was only saying it, but she really wanted it. She was about to reach out to take it when Kodak angrily turned and left.

"Ke Dasheng, you bastard, you, you..." Luo Ling roared angrily.

The sound startled Kui Ran again. He couldn't help but chuckle as he sat by the river, but the smile quickly disappeared from his face.

The monster village, which was just moments ago filled with the aroma of cooking fires, is now eerily quiet, without even a bird chirping.

With all the monsters being exonerated, all traces of their past lives disappeared.

Looking at the excited demon hunters in the distance, Kui Ran asked herself: Was I really wrong? Did I lack the nature of a demon hunter?
That shouldn't be the case; his mind raced back to eighteen years ago.

Back when Kui Ran had just joined Wugong Mountain, his master told him that the world was a world of all spirits, not just a world of humans. There were good and bad people, and there were good and bad demons. Demon hunters also needed to have a compassionate heart.

"Master, are you wrong or are they wrong?" Kui Ran felt so frustrated that he could only take off the wine gourd from his waist, drink a few mouthfuls of wine, and then say with a bitter smile, "Hehe, exterminate the demons thoroughly, exterminate the demons thoroughly."

Four words, "Exterminate the demons completely," restored peace to the demon village...
