Maoshan World: The young marshal starts!

Chapter 312 Supernatural Events
night.

Kuala Lumpur.

In a toilet stall in the government building, a staff member on duty squatted in the toilet bowl, fumbling for a cigarette in his pocket and putting it in his mouth to smoke.

When he went to light a cigarette, he realized he hadn't brought any matches.

Hey!
The staff member on duty couldn't help but curse inwardly.

Just then, someone next to me handed me a lit match and helped me light my cigarette.

"Thank you."

The staff member on duty who lit the cigarette immediately expressed his gratitude, but then realized something was wrong. The toilet he was in was a private bathroom with walls on both sides, so where did this person come from?

Turn around and look.

Suddenly, they saw a person standing by the wall. The person's feet were not touching the ground, and their face was as pale as a dead person. They were staring at the staff on duty with a strange smile.

Immediately afterward, to the horrified eyes of the staff on duty, his entire head was twisted 360 degrees and turned off.
-
Two days later.

Star City.

The Marshal's office on the top floor of the military headquarters.

Guan Shaoqing looked at the information materials brought by Bai Xiongqi in his hand, and saw that the four characters "Evil Spirits at Work" were written on the materials.

However, in the last few days, for some unknown reason, there have been a large-scale and frequent outbreak of demonic and ghostly disturbances in the Republic of Xingzhou. In just a few days, nearly a hundred incidents of demonic and ghostly disturbances have occurred, resulting in hundreds of casualties, including more than a dozen government personnel.

"Your Highness, I find something suspicious about this matter. Could someone be pulling the strings behind the scenes?"

Bai Xiongqi looked at Guan Shaoqing and said, guessing that there must be more to this than meets the eye.

Because it's just too strange.

The original Republic of Star Continent was fine. Although there were occasional paranormal events, there was never such a large-scale situation, as if the entire Republic of Star Continent had suddenly been struck by paranormal phenomena.

But it's clearly unreasonable for a sudden, supernatural outbreak to occur without any apparent reason.

Moreover, the Republic of Singapore is currently thriving and its national strength is increasing day by day, so it is illogical for a sudden supernatural outbreak to occur.

As the saying goes, "When a country is about to perish, there will be evil spirits." Generally speaking, evil spirits will frequently appear when a country is declining and about to fall. This is because as a country's power declines, its national fortune will inevitably decline as well. Without the suppression of evil spirits by the national fortune, they will appear more frequently. Conversely, when a country is strong, its national fortune will also be strong, and with the strong national fortune, the suppression of evil spirits will become less frequent.

As a result, the situation in the Republic of Singapore has clearly reversed in the past few days.

Therefore, Bai Xiongqi couldn't help but wonder if someone was behind this.

Upon hearing this, Guan Shaoqing's gaze sharpened slightly as he looked at Bai Xiongqi and asked.

"Do you have any idea?"

"Could it be those local ethnic groups from Southeast Asia?"

Bai Xiongqi's guess was not without reason, because since the establishment of the Republic of Singapore and its growing strength over the past six months, the status of Chinese people in Southeast Asia has significantly improved, and the status of the original indigenous ethnic groups in Southeast Asia has inevitably been impacted.

Moreover, the local ethnic groups in Southeast Asia already had conflicts with the Chinese, and there were even several massacres of Chinese people because of this.

Many local ethnic groups in Southeast Asia felt that the arrival of the Chinese had taken away their interests.

Now, with the establishment of the Republic of Singapore, the status of Chinese people in Southeast Asia has been continuously improving, which has further impacted the interests of the local ethnic groups in Southeast Asia.

Under such circumstances, it's hard to guarantee that the local ethnic groups in Southeast Asia won't do something.

Moreover, witchcraft such as black magic and ghost raising were prevalent in Southeast Asia.

"This guess is not unreasonable. Here's what you'll do: next, you will issue a bounty in the name of the government to recruit talented people to slay demons and monsters. Set the bounty high and don't worry about the money. Then, carefully observe the performance of those people. I will investigate and handle this matter privately."

Upon hearing this, Guan Shaoqing thought for a moment and then gave the instructions.

"Yes."

Upon receiving Guan Shaoqing's order, Bai Xiongqi responded and left.

Soon, under Bai Xiongqi's manipulation, the government's bounty for slaying demons spread rapidly, shaking the Republic of Xingzhou, which had been peaceful for most of the year.

Guan Shaoqing returned home at this time.

"My lord, is there really an evil spirit at work?"

Upon seeing Guan Shaoqing return, the eight women who were at home—Ren Tingting, Ren Zhuzhu, Mi Nianying, Yu Ji, Annie, Aunt Thirteen, Qingqing, and Bai Xiuzhu—couldn't help but greet him with concern and curiosity. At this time, the eight women already knew about the news that the government had issued a bounty for slaying demons.

"Yes, someone must be pushing this behind the scenes. They probably can't sit still because the Republic of Singapore is rising too fast."

Guan Shaoqing nodded upon hearing this, then looked at the eight women and smiled.
"But don't worry, I'll handle this. Don't forget that compared to fighting wars and governing a country, slaying demons and monsters is my specialty. No matter who they are, if they dare to cause trouble in my Xingzhou, they'll all leave their lives behind."

"Yes, then please be careful, my husband."

The eight women nodded in agreement.

Afterwards, Guan Shaoqing found Yue Qiluo, the female ghost Lin Wenjun, and the three fox demon sisters, and then told the five women about the matter.

"interesting."

Upon hearing this, Yue Qiluo immediately became interested and then looked at Guan Shaoqing to ask.

"Do you need my help?"

Guan Shaoqing thought for a moment and said, "You and Wenjun can help me. You are professionals in this area. Yunluo, you, Zining, and Surou can stay at home and take care of the house and Xingdu for me."

Yue Qiluo, a female demon reincarnated from a demonic fetus, is proficient in various evil arts and techniques, making her a veritable ancestor of evil cultivation. She is definitely a professional at dealing with ghosts and demons.

Lin Wenjun, needless to say, was a female ghost herself.

And most importantly, both women are very strong.

Yue Qiluo goes without saying; she's a top expert in the late Golden Core stage.

As for Lin Wenjun, her cultivation had already successfully broken through to the Golden Core level several months ago, making her a generation of female ghost king.

With the assistance of two women, Guan Shaoqing's workload can definitely be reduced significantly. After all, the supernatural events that have broken out this time are widespread, and he alone is not able to handle them all.

Guan Shaoqing assigned the three Yunluo sisters to guard the house.

After all, if someone is really behind this, it's hard to guarantee that they won't target the people around him. Moreover, the eight women—Ren Tingting, Ren Zhuzhu, Mi Nianying, Yu Ji, Annie, Aunt Thirteen, Qingqing, and Bai Xiuzhu—don't have much power, so naturally someone needs to stay at home to ensure that their home won't be raided.

In addition, as the current capital of the Republic of Xingzhou, Xingdu naturally needs to maintain stability and prevent any trouble.

The paranormal events that happened before all occurred on the Malay Peninsula, not on Sing Tao.

Guan Shaoqing guessed that the person behind the scenes was probably wary of him knowing that he was in charge of Xingdu.

If they knew that Xingdu had left, the person behind it might very well target Xingdu and the people around him.

Therefore, it was necessary to leave the three Yunluo sisters behind to guard the rear.

The three Yunluo sisters are all at the Golden Core level, and are all Golden Core Great Demons.

With his three sisters holding the fort at home, he could rest assured.

That's how it was settled.

Guan Shaoqing stayed with the five women for another half a day, until he had completely subdued them before leaving.

"Master Sister".

Finally, with a soft call from Guan Shaoqing, he arrived at the place where his aunt Bai Rourou lived.

Since the formal establishment of the Republic of Sing Tao.

All the women moved there as well.
