You've already caught the embroidered ball, and you still say it's not my husband?

Lu Xuan was very satisfied with the results of this trip, but he couldn't help but have a headache - what should he do next?

Should we just leave?

If he wants to leave, these trembling Demon Suppression Guards certainly wouldn't dare to stop him, nor would they have the ability to do so, but the Demon Suppression Division will definitely investigate afterwards!

He will likely also be charged with multiple offenses, including obstructing law enforcement, assaulting law enforcement officers, and fleeing the scene of a crime, and will be listed as a wanted criminal with a global manhunt.

Lu Xuan will never have peace again!

So... should we kill everyone present to silence them?

But I don't think it's that serious.

Even Lu Xuan wouldn't do something so heinous.

Even if we take a step back and assume he actually did that, it wouldn't make a difference.

Because he didn't try to conceal his whereabouts today, the Demon Suppression Division only needs to investigate slightly to find out that he had been to Huangshi Town and Huangshi Mountain, and they can easily pinpoint his location...

"Ugh, this is really a headache!"

Lu Xuan slapped his head and sighed helplessly.

It might feel good to punch someone on impulse, but it will cause endless trouble and worry afterward!

Fine!

Since we can't escape it, let's face it bravely!

"Hello!"

He raised his eyes again and looked at the group of terrified demon-suppressing guards.

The Demon-Suppressing Guards walked on thin ice, not daring to be negligent in the slightest. "Doctor Lu, what are your orders?"

"Immediately notify the department and report the situation truthfully. Have the department send someone in charge; I want to speak with him/her in person!"

Communication is the most direct and effective way to solve problems.

Lu Xuan felt that since the Demon Suppression Division was an organization dedicated to slaying demons, punishing evil, and upholding justice, it should generally adhere to the principles of law...

He didn't think he had done anything wrong by stopping a demon-suppressing captain who tried to rape a woman and then accused him of something...

He then planned to communicate with the higher-ups of the Demon Suppression Division to see if the problem could be resolved peacefully.

"That's how it should be, that's how it should be!"

The Demon Suppression Guards breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Lu Xuan's words.

As long as Lu Xuan doesn't kill anyone to silence them, everything will be fine!

"Doctor Lu, this matter is somewhat...complicated. We can only consult our Commandant for a decision!"

Above the Demon Suppression Captain is the Demon Suppression Commandant, who is also the highest-ranking official in the Yunzhou Demon Suppression Division. In the current situation, we must consult that Commandant.

Normally, the Demon Suppression Guards have no right to report directly to the Captain... but this situation is definitely an "extraordinary circumstance," and even if they overstep their bounds and contact the Captain on behalf of the Captain, they will not be held accountable.

"Doctor Lu, we need the Captain's Order to contact the Commandant..." A Demon Suppression Guard pointed to a bronze token protruding from the waist of Ling Yunting, who was lying unconscious in the deep pit.

Each Demon Suppression Captain carries a token made of a special material, which serves as both a symbol of their position and a means of receiving notifications from superiors and making emergency communications.

Lu Xuan Tan Yun grabbed the "Commander's Token" and examined it for a while.

It's nothing special; it's just a token with a communication function.

"Here you go, you'll be in charge of making the contact." He casually tossed the token to one of the demon-suppressing guards, then added casually, "Remember, be truthful and report the facts accurately."

"Yes, yes, yes!"

The demon-suppressing guard accepted the captain's order and quickly nodded in agreement.

Under Lu Xuan's watchful eye, who would dare to act recklessly?

We must strive to be the first to seek truth from facts!

Then, the Demon-Suppressing Captain took a deep breath and channeled his spiritual power into the Captain's Token.

The token immediately emitted light, activating its message transmission function.

The communication was quickly established, and a female voice came from the token: "Captain Ling, what is it?"

The voice was serious and indifferent, revealing the authority of someone in a superior position.

It was none other than Nangong Yourong, the Demon Suppression Captain of the Yunzhou Demon Suppression Division!

"Greetings, Commandant! I am not Commandant Ling, but He, codenamed 527."

"Today, we accompanied Commander Ling to Huangshi Mountain in Huangshi Town, Qingyang County, to suppress bandits, but an unexpected incident occurred during the process..."

The token's call lasted only about a minute. The Demon-Suppressing Guard quickly cut to the chase, explaining that they had come to Huangshi Mountain to suppress bandits, where they encountered two bandits fighting. The female bandit from Bailian Village won and surrendered, but Captain Ling Yunting, driven by lust, attempted to rape the female bandit leader. He was stopped and brutally beaten by Lu Xuan, a traveling physician from Qingyang County who happened to be "passing by." Now, Lu Xuan is demanding peace talks...

That concludes the general overview.

There was a long silence on the other end of the token before a reply came after more than ten seconds.

"Bring your men to see me!"

The voice had changed from indifference to cold and deep...

Anyone could tell that this captain was angry!

It's unclear whether he's angry at his subordinates for their misbehavior, or resentful that Lu Xuan's meddling has damaged the reputation of the Demon Suppression Division.

She also said that she was willing to meet Lu Xuan.

"Doctor Lu, our Commandant requests your presence at the Demon Suppression Division..." the Demon Suppression Guard said to Lu Xuan with a forced smile.

Lu Xuan shook his head directly, "I'll stay here. Please, Commander, take some time out of your busy schedule and come to the scene in person!"

Lu Xuan is not stupid.

What if the Demon Suppression Bureau is truly a den of dragons and tigers, setting up a trap for him, and he gets detained as soon as he arrives?

Then you'll be completely helpless!

So, to be on the safe side, let's have them come to Huangshi Mountain!

With witnesses and physical evidence present at the scene, Lu Xuan is in a much better position. Even if the negotiations break down, it will be much easier for Lu Xuan to escape.

"This, this, this..."

The Demon Suppressor was in a bit of a predicament; his smile looked more like a grimace than a cry.

He thought to himself, "Isn't Lu Xuan a bit too bold?"

Not only did he refuse the Captain's "invitation," but he also acted like a big shot and made the Captain come in person?

The Demon-Suppressing Guards had no choice but to bite the bullet and relay the message, "Commander, Doctor Lu wishes to invite you to come over in person..."

There was a few seconds of silence on the other end of the token.

Surprisingly, they did not refuse.

"Alright, let him wait!"

Beep, beep.

The call ended just as it was supposed to last one minute.

The Demon Suppression Guards looked at each other in disbelief. Their high-ranking and powerful captain had actually agreed to Lu Xuan's request and was going to come to see him in person.

Is he genuinely interested in meeting with Lu Xuan? Or is he feigning agreement to actually bring men to capture and suppress him?

They had no idea and could only wait patiently.

While waiting, Lu Xuan did not remain idle.

His mind raced, carefully considering and anticipating all possible scenarios to prepare countermeasures in advance...

suddenly!

Someone hugged him from behind.

Upon smelling the familiar fragrance, Lu Xuan's lips twitched. "Hey! Miss Shen, what are you doing?"

Shen Jinglian hugged him tightly, sobbing, "If it weren't for me, Lu Xuan, you wouldn't be... Waaah, thank you, I'm the one who dragged you down..."

The girl was both grateful and guilty.

"If that captain insists on arresting you despite the law, I'm willing to bear all the blame..."

Since Lu Xuan was willing to offend the Demon Suppression Division for her sake, then she could also make sacrifices for Lu Xuan!

So touching!

But Lu Xuan seemed not to hear her words, only struggling anxiously, "Miss Shen, quickly, quickly let go! Men and women shouldn't touch each other...it's not a good thing!"

Whether it was the Demon-Suppressing Guards, the female bandits of White Lotus Village, or even Constable Zhao Guang, they were all watching this place.

Hugging and kissing in public, especially since Lu Xuan is a married man...

This is outrageous!

The girl stopped sobbing, reluctantly loosened her arms, pouted, and muttered, "What a coward..."

Half an hour later.

Goo!

With a sharp, long cry, a huge golden eagle appeared in the sky above Yellowstone!

This golden eagle was over ten zhang in size, with its feathers a dazzling gold. When it spread its wings, it covered part of the sky, casting a shadow over Lu Xuan and his group below!

The aura emanating from this golden eagle was in no way weaker than that of Captain Ling Yunting from before—it was clearly a peak fifth-rank demon beast!

Three people were standing on its back.

In the middle is a woman in her early twenties. She has a proud figure, a slightly chubby face, and an imposing gaze. A chipmunk holding a pine cone sits on her shoulder...

It was none other than Nangong Yourong, the Demon-Suppressing Commandant of Yunzhou!

Standing beside her were two tall, thin, distinguished-looking elderly men with gray hair!

The golden eagle swooped down and landed quickly and smoothly on the top of Yellowstone.

The Demon-Suppressing Guards' eyes lit up with excitement. They knelt on one knee and shouted in unison, "Welcome, Commander!"
