Something's wrong with this demon.

Chapter 160 Shock

The atmosphere in the room suddenly froze.

Xiong Hong's face stiffened, and her eyelids twitched uncontrollably, but the next second, her expression returned to normal.

"Junior Brother Luo, what are you talking about?"

"Why do I not understand some of what you're saying?"

Her plump face was once again filled with a warm smile.

"Don't you understand?"

Luo Qingchen nodded, then suddenly reached out and grabbed her by the neck.

"Click—"

With a slight exertion of her fingers, her throat bones made a crisp sound.

Xiong Hong was shocked and hurriedly tried to circulate her internal energy to resist, but she was horrified to find that a terrifying force was pouring into her neck, suppressing the energy in her body.

Instantly, she felt weak all over, had difficulty breathing, and could not muster any strength.

"You—you—"

Her eyes widened in terror, her hands gripping his arm weakly, her obese body writhing ugly like a maggot as she tried desperately to break free of his grasp, but to no avail.

"Now, can you understand?"

Tell me, what have I done to offend you?

Luo Qingchen stared at her fat and distorted face and asked.

"Heh ————·————"

Xiong Hong let out a dying gasp, his body began to convulse, and his eyes rolled back.

"stop!"

Just then, a sharp rebuke came from behind Luo Qingchen.

Immediately, a powerful aura of profound energy, accompanied by a hand, swiftly reached for his shoulder.

"Snapped!"

Luo Qingchen swayed her shoulder and threw a backhand punch, hitting the other hand squarely.

A crisp sound.

He was jolted and crashed into the counter in front of him.

The entire counter suddenly shook and almost collapsed.

"What are you doing? Bullying the weak and taking advantage of your size?"

Behind him, a tall woman in a black dress with long, flowing wine-red hair looked at him with an icy expression.

A mysterious aura surrounded him, and his long, wine-red hair moved without wind.

He's actually an inner disciple!

Upon seeing her, Xiong Hong felt as if she had seen a savior and hurriedly opened her mouth wide to cry for help: "Senior Sister Chen, save me!"

At this moment, law enforcement personnel also rushed over upon hearing the news.

Upon seeing that the troublemaker was none other than the boy who had killed his lover, Captain Yuan Yang immediately roared, stepped forward, grabbed Luo Qingchen's arm, and shouted, "Luo Qingchen, how dare you! How dare you injure someone in this main peak general store!"

As he spoke, he grabbed Luo Qingchen's arm and twisted it forcefully, intending to break it.

Having finally found this opportunity to make a move, he naturally wouldn't let it slip by!

"Click!"

A crisp sound.

A sudden, piercing scream rang out from the crowd.

Not only did he fail to break the other person's arm, but it was his own arm that was broken by the other person.

"boom!"

Before his screams could even stop, Luo Qingchen slammed a heavy punch into his chest.

A loud bang!

He was thrown directly away by the impact.

"Snapped!"

He flew backward seven or eight meters, crashed heavily to the ground, his chest exploded on the spot, his eyes widened, and he died instantly!

The captain of the law enforcement team was actually killed by a single punch!

This sudden scene left the other members of the enforcement team, as well as the disciples watching, dumbfounded.

You should know that the captain of this enforcement team is at the peak of the Strength Realm!

Xiong Hong was so frightened that her soul almost left her body.

"How daring!"

Just as the entire place fell silent, the woman with long, wine-red hair flashed a cold glint in her eyes, preparing to make her move.

"Stop it, all of you!"

Suddenly, an angry shout rang out from behind the crowd.

Then, Yang Jiujiang from the main peak management office hurriedly pushed through the crowd and rushed in.

"What are you doing? What are you all doing?"

"How dare they make a move on the main peak! Are they tired of living?"

Yang Jiujiang arrived at the counter, his face full of anger, his imposing aura instantly making the surrounding disciples feel suffocated.

Upon seeing him, the woman with long, wine-red hair immediately suppressed her murderous aura and respectfully bowed, saying, "Uncle Yang, this man has injured people here and killed members of the main peak's enforcement team. I was just about to capture him."

Upon hearing this, Yang Jiujiang glanced at Yuan Yang, who was already dead on the ground, and his facial muscles twitched violently a few times. Then he turned his head and looked at the boy in front of him, his eyes filled with shock, astonishment, disbelief, and incredulity.

Clearly, this little devil has broken through again!

Moreover, this time, he broke through to the Tongqiao Realm in one go!

"Let go now!"

He suddenly roared, grabbed the other man's shoulder, and secretly winked at him, whispering, "You've gotten yourself into big trouble, you better behave!"

Luo Qingchen loosened her grip on Xiong Hong's neck and did not resist.

Xiong Hong coughed violently a few times, then her body went limp and she collapsed onto the counter, gasping for breath.

At that moment, a foul stench emanated from the counter.

She was so frightened that she soiled herself.

"Which madman dares to act so recklessly here!"

A shout rang out, and a tall, thin middle-aged man rushed over with another team of law enforcement disciples.

"Yuan Yang!"

When he saw Yuan Yang's dead body on the ground, his eyes wide open, his expression changed drastically.

Immediately, his gaze fell upon the youth who had already been captured by Yang Jiujiang, and he exclaimed in shock and anger, "You bastard! You've got some nerve, daring to slaughter my Enforcement Hall members here on the main peak! Guards! Take him back to the Enforcement Hall; I want to interrogate him myself!"

"Yes, Elder Yin!"

Several disciples behind him were about to come over immediately.

Yang Jiujiang said, "Junior Brother Yin, I have captured the person. However, you should first ask what happened and who made the first move."

The newcomer was none other than Elder Yin Xiu of the Enforcement Hall. Upon hearing this, he said sternly, "Senior Brother Yang, regardless of who struck first, his killing of a member of my Enforcement Hall on the main peak is an unforgivable crime! As an elder of the Enforcement Hall, I have the right to bring him back to the Enforcement Hall for interrogation!"

Having said that, he was about to come and take the person away himself.

Yang Jiujiang immediately stepped in front of him, saying, "Junior Brother Yin, your Enforcement Hall can only handle outer sect disciples. This kid has already broken through to the Opening Aperture Realm and is now an inner sect disciple. Even if there is interrogation or punishment, it should be handled by the Enforcement Hall above! You don't have that authority!"

Upon hearing this, the disciples watching from all around gasped in surprise.

"What?! Senior Brother Luo has already broken through to the Opening Aperture Realm?! His cultivation speed is too fast!"

"No wonder he was able to kill Senior Brother Yuan with a single punch!"

Upon hearing this, Yin Xiu's expression changed drastically, and he finally realized, "This kid has already broken through to the Opening Aperture Realm?"

"Otherwise what?"

Yang Jiujiang didn't say anything more. He grabbed Luo Qingchen's arm and said, "I have to take this kid to register. Otherwise, he'll take advantage of not having a registered identity to kill people everywhere. Junior Brother Yin, you should go and notify the Enforcement Hall above as soon as possible and have them send people down to arrest and investigate. It would be best to send this little devil up immediately to prevent him from causing any more trouble later."

After saying that, he left with Luo Qingchen.

Yin Xiu's expression shifted for a moment, then he glanced at the corpse on the ground and had no choice but to instruct the disciples behind him, "Take Yuan Yang's body away. All disciples who witnessed that brat killing someone, stay here and don't leave for now. We'll make a decision after I go up and bring the people from the Inner Sect's Enforcement Hall down."

"yes!"

The disciples of the Enforcement Hall behind him immediately responded respectfully and surrounded the disciples watching from all sides.

The woman with long, flowing, wine-red hair walked to the counter of the general store, looked at Xiong Hong, who was still slumped on the ground, her face deathly pale, frowned, and asked, "What happened? Why did that person attack you?"

Upon seeing her, Xiong Hong immediately scrambled to her feet and knelt before her, trembling all over, crying out, "Senior Sister Chen, help me—that person, that person is the one who—the one you used to repair his soul banner—"

Chen Yuyan was taken aback upon hearing this, and asked in confusion, "A drug person?"

Xiong Hong cried out, "The Ten Soul Banner! It's that drug-using man from Medicine Man Town!"

Upon hearing the words "Ten Soul Banner," Chen Yuyan seemed to suddenly remember, her face filled with shock and disbelief: "You mean, that young man at the Qi Opening Realm just now was—was he the medicine man from Medicine Man Town?"

"It's him—"

Xiong Hong trembled all over and cried out in terror.

Chen Yuyan's face was filled with astonishment and blankness.

"You little brat! Hey—"

Yang Jiujiang dragged Luo Qingchen back to the management office, and after driving away the other disciples in line, he was both amazed and sighed.

"You've actually broken through again! In just over three months? The Opening Acupoint Realm?"

"I'm starting to wonder if you're some kind of reincarnated ancestor? Breaking through major realms is this easy? You've only been at the Strength Realm for a little over three months! And you haven't even had a master to help you? Are you even human?"

"Are you addicted to killing? You just broke through and you're back to killing again? You even dared to kill the captain of the enforcement team? Are you insane?"

"What did Xiong Hong from that general store do to you that you're going to mess with him? Even if you've broken through to the Qi Opening Realm, you can't just do whatever you want and kill people at will. Do you really think the people in the Enforcement Hall are all dead?"

Fearing that he would secretly run away to kill someone again, Yang Jiujiang took him directly into the stone house, locked the door, and while making him a new identity document, he nagged and scolded him.

Luo Qingchen remained silent throughout.

Half an hour later.

A tall young man with a silver-white ponytail led five disciples to the office and bowed to Yang Jiujiang, saying, "Uncle Yang, we are from the Inner Sect's Enforcement Hall. We've come to take Luo Qingchen upstairs."

Yang Jiujiang stared at him for a few moments and said, "Song Qilin, Senior Brother Jiang from Yaofeng, is he your personal disciple?"

The silver-haired youth immediately said respectfully, "It is indeed this junior. I met Uncle Yang once when I was following behind Master and my fellow senior brothers and sisters. I didn't expect Uncle Yang to still remember me."

Yang Jiujiang smiled and said, "I remember all the outstanding juniors."

As he spoke, he handed him the documents he had just prepared and said, "This is this kid's identification document. After you take it up, go to the office and register him. Once he's on a certain peak, we'll make him a waist tag."

Song Qilin immediately accepted it with both hands and said, "This junior obeys."

Yang Jiujiang opened the wooden door of the stone house, patted Luo Qingchen on the shoulder, and warned in a low voice, "The inner sect is not like the outer sect. You must restrain yourself after you go up there, and you must not kill people indiscriminately again. If you commit another crime, no one can protect you. Don't regret it when your cultivation is destroyed or you are exiled to the Black Prison Great Wall to die."

"Thank you very much, Senior Uncle Yang."

Luo Qingchen nodded and walked out of the stone house.

Two disciples immediately stepped out from behind Song Qilin, each grabbing one of his arms and bringing him to Song Qilin.

Song Qilin stared at him for a few moments, then said in a relatively gentle tone, "Junior Brother Luo, the matter of you killing someone in the outer sect today has already been investigated by others. You will likely be interrogated soon. Now, according to sect rules, I'm taking you back to the inner sect's Enforcement Hall cell. I hope you will cooperate for now. If you resist, don't blame us for taking action."

After saying that, he cupped his hands in a respectful gesture to Yang Jiujiang and said, "Uncle Yang, then this junior will take his leave now."

Several men escorted Luo Qingchen towards a set of steps behind the main peak.

Along the way, many disciples stepped aside to make way, whispering among themselves with varying expressions.

Luo Qingchen suddenly saw a familiar figure.

"Senior Brother Song, may I go and say a few words to one of my junior brothers? He's right by the roadside."

He began to speak.

Upon hearing this, Song Qilin hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Go, but don't go too far."

He was naturally not afraid that the other party would escape.

Luo Qingchen thanked him and turned to walk towards a figure on the roadside behind her.

When the man saw him coming, he quickly went to greet him, gave him a complicated look, and immediately bowed his head respectfully with a big smile, saying, "Senior Brother Luo."

The newcomer was none other than Wang Jing, the bald, burly man from Yaoren Town.

He had just come up from below and overheard the conversations of other people by the roadside. He was shocked to learn that his brother Luo, who came from Medicine Man Town, had actually broken through again!

Moreover, this time, the other party actually broke through the Tongqiao Realm and became an inner disciple!

He never dared to dream that he, a mere medicine man from Medicine Man Town, would suddenly become an inner disciple in less than a year!

"That Senior Brother Luo just killed Senior Brother Yuan Yang of the Enforcement Hall with a single punch—"

Then he heard the news again, and he was shocked and horrified.

At this moment, seeing the other party actually walking towards him, he was naturally both delighted and flustered, flattered and trembling with fear.

"Junior Brother Wang, how are they doing lately?"

Luo Qingchen walked up to him and asked in a low voice.

Wang Jing paused for a moment before realizing who he was asking about, and quickly replied in a low voice, "Don't worry, Senior Brother Luo, Miss A Yao and the others are doing quite well. A few days ago, my wife went there to get medicine and chatted with them for a while."

Luo Qingchen asked, "I heard Chen Ya broke through to the Blood Exchange Realm? She should be up here by now, right? Which peak is she on?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Jing glanced around and quickly whispered, "Junior Brother Luo, Miss Chen Ya didn't come up. After she broke through to the Blood Exchange Realm, she excitedly came to my place to register her identity and come up. She was very excited at the time, telling me that she would see you soon and hoped that she could be assigned to Black Phoenix Peak. Miss A Yao was also happy for her, but—"

At this point, he sighed and said, "I asked her to throw a punch so I could see, and it turned out she wasn't practicing any of our Demon-Slaying Sect's techniques. After questioning her, she confessed that she hadn't used any blood baths during her practice; she was practicing a different technique, one that didn't belong to our Demon-Slaying Sect. Therefore, according to the rules, I can't register her identity, nor can I let her come up here—"

After listening, Luo Qingchen pondered for a moment and said, "Did you ask her what kind of cultivation technique she practices?"

Wang Jing said, "Of course I asked, but she wouldn't say, nor would she say who gave it to her. So I had no choice but to advise her to go back to work at the pharmacy."

Luo Qingchen nodded, preparing to take her leave.

Wang Jing suddenly whispered again, "Senior Brother Luo, you're an inner disciple now. According to the rules, inner disciples can take in three medicine puppets, and they can all be brought into the inner sect. Perfect timing, those three at the pharmacy—hehe—"

He stopped talking immediately, chuckled, and dared not say any more.

"I can't even take care of myself right now, let's talk about it later."

"9

Luo Qingchen didn't say anything more, thanked her, and took her leave.

After watching him being escorted away by the inner disciples, Wang Jing thought carefully for a moment, then immediately went down the mountain and returned to Yaoren Town.

"Madam, regarding this matter, should we inform the pharmacy? How should we inform them?"

Inside the stone house, his wife, Sun Qiao'er, was checking the list of new arrivals to Yaoren Town.

After hearing what he said, Sun Qiao'er was shocked and immediately stood up from her chair.

"Senior Brother Luo has broken through to the Qi Opening Realm again? And become an inner disciple?"

"Wow, this is incredible! Absolutely incredible!"

She thought about it seriously for a while and immediately made a decision: "I think we should still go and tell them about this. I reckon that Junior Brother Luo will take the three of them up with him. Even if he doesn't, I doubt Senior Brother Luo will be able to let them go and won't never see them again, especially since he came to ask about them after what happened to him. So, we need to get on their good side beforehand."

"What you say makes sense."

Wang Jing immediately nodded in agreement.

"Please come in and sit down. They are all women, so it's more appropriate for me to go alone."

Sun Qiao'er took out a silver note from the drawer, left the stone house, and said, "I'm going to buy some snacks for those two little girls. As for that shopkeeper Bai, I doubt he'll accept anything."

After saying that, he left in a hurry.

At this moment, in the Ziwei Pharmacy.

Ayao was alone at the counter, intently grinding the medicine.

Chen Ya was dressed in a white outfit, with her hair tied in a high ponytail and her bare feet in white socks, practicing in her room.

"Swish! Swish! Swish!"

She seemed to have grown taller, becoming even more charming and beautiful, standing tall and graceful, like a delicate flower that had just bloomed!

She was tall, slender and slim, with a firm and perky back, a well-developed bust, and a waist that could be encircled with one hand.

With each punch and movement, her ponytail leaped, her pink fists whistled, and her long legs moved like the wind!

"Whoosh!"

She flipped in mid-air, threw a punch, and landed lightly on the quilted floor. Then, a strong, powerful leg suddenly tightened and lifted, her delicate foot in white socks kicking over her shoulder and behind her.

At the same time, she bent her slender waist backward, pushed off the ground behind her with both hands, and flipped over in an instant. Her two delicate feet kicked out more than a dozen times in a flash.

Just as she was diligently cultivating, she suddenly heard A Yao's excited voice from outside: "Sister Sun, really?"

"Master has broken through to the Opening Aperture Realm and become an inner disciple? That's wonderful! When will Master come to see us? Will he come tomorrow?"

Chen Ya's heart skipped a beat, and one of her long legs was raised high and fixed in place.

"Breaking through to the Qi Opening Realm? An inner disciple?"

"I heard that inner disciples can bring three medicine figures up—"

A sudden surge of joy washed over her like a tidal wave.

She didn't bother to put on her coat or shoes; she opened the door as fast as she could and rushed out.
