Fantasy: Starting with a bowl, you can exchange it for endless cultivation.

The next day.

Qinggou Ridge.

Below Qinggou Ridge lies Siye Village, under the jurisdiction of Luo'an County.

Today, every household in the village keeps their doors and windows closed.

For no other reason than that.

Today is the day agreed upon by the Black Wolf Gang in the county town and the group of dog demons in Green Dog Ridge, to hand over the people to them.

Gu Chen did not take all the Night Watch personnel with him in a grand manner.

Even Duan Xingchen, who was at the early stage of the third realm of innate talent, was not brought along.

He only brought Qian Shen, Zhong Hao, and two Night Watchmen at the first level of the Innate Realm.

"Sir, are you sure it's okay if we don't take any of us along?" Ding Wei, the leader of the Black Wolf Gang, and several thugs from the Black Wolf Gang led the way for Gu Chen.

"Don't worry, I'll give those dog demons an explanation when I get there, and I guarantee they won't make you hand over any more people in the future," Gu Chen said calmly.

"I wonder how you plan to explain this to them, sir?" Ding Wei pressed.

"Just watch and see," Gu Chen replied calmly.

soon.

The group then arrived outside Siye Village.

Below Qinggou Ridge.

A group of dog demons were already waiting there.

These dog demons looked very strange, with dog heads and human bodies, wearing animal skin vests, and were now making a ruckus in front of us.

Upon seeing Ding Wei arrive with Gu Chen and the others.

The leading dog demon, at the second level of the Innate Realm, counted the number of Gu Chen and his group.

"One, two, three, four, three, five..." It counted for a long time but couldn't count them all, and angrily said, "What's going on? Why does the population seem to be less than before?"

"Don't try to fool me. I'm shrewd. If one person is missing, I'll just go down the mountain and eat one myself." The dog demon at the second level of the Innate Realm looked at Ding Wei.

Ding Wei didn't know how to answer, so he looked at Gu Chen.

Gu Chen approached the dog demon with a smile: "There are more people than before."

As they were talking.

Gu Chen drew his Fire Profound Blade with lightning speed.

puff!

A knife through the heart.

The speed is extremely fast.

They arrived so quickly that the people and demons around them didn't even have time to see them clearly.

The tip of the knife pierced through the heart of the dog demon queen.

Blood kept gushing from the corner of its mouth.

A moment later, he fell backward, powerless.

"How dare you! Do you have a death wish?"

"If you dare to kill a demon, you're finished!"

"No matter how many people you send today, it won't matter, we're telling you!" the group of dog demons roared.

Gu Chen was too lazy to waste words with them.

The group of dog demons who came down the mountain to take over the population were not very strong.

The strongest was a dog demon at the second level of the Innate Realm, which he had already dealt with.

What remains are two dog demons at the first level of the Innate Realm, and lesser demons below the Innate Realm.

Gu Chen took a step with the Flying Serpent Step, his figure like a flying serpent, and in a few flashes, he passed by the two dog demons who were at the first level of the Innate Realm.

The white blade goes in, the red blade comes out.

By the time the two dog demons, both at the first level of the Innate Realm, reacted, their bodies had already been pierced through and killed.

It softly fell backward.

The group of dog demons below the level of the Innate Realm were so frightened by this that their fur stood on end and their tails were tucked tightly between their legs.

"This is a dangerous idea, run!"

"Go back and find our ancestors to deal with him!"

The group of dog demons turned around and tried to run away.

Gu Chen swung his sword, unleashing a torrent of sword energy that shot directly towards the group of dog demons below the Innate Realm.

No demon could resist the overwhelming sword energy; the little demons, whose flesh and bones had not been tempered, were no match for it.

Just like tofu, it was crushed into pieces.

In the blink of an eye.

All the dog demons then turned into dog corpses and lay scattered on the ground.

Ding Wei and the other thugs from the Black Wolf Gang felt a chill run down their spines.

"This is my explanation to them. How is it? Any problems?" Gu Chen looked at Ding Wei.

Ding Wei swallowed hard, forcing himself to swallow the stench of blood on the ground, and said, "No, no problem, the master's instructions are good."

"Then you should arrange for someone to skin these dog demons here, and also remove and process any useful materials from their bodies," Gu Chen said, looking at him.

"Dog teeth are good things; they can ward off evil spirits. People like you who often walk at night are prone to seeing ghosts, so it's best to carry a couple with you."

"Yes, yes!" Ding Wei couldn't understand the meaning behind Gu Chen's words.

He assumed that Gu Chen was unaware that his Black Wolf Gang secretly captured a portion of the population for Gong Yi.

He could only nod repeatedly.

"I'm going up Green Dog Ridge now to discuss with those dog demons and borrow some more dog teeth. Zhong Hao, come with me." Gu Chen looked at Zhong Hao.

"Yes, sir." Zhong Hao nodded.

Judging from Gu Chen's attack just now, he couldn't determine Gu Chen's strength at all.

All that is clear is that Gu Chen is very strong.

It should be more than just the early stage of the third realm of innate beings.

However, he didn't know exactly how strong Gu Chen was, as Gu Chen hadn't unleashed his full power in the previous battle, so he couldn't tell.

"Qian Shen, you and the other two night watchmen stay here to help Chief Ding. We'll go up the mountain and talk to those dog demons. You can handle the rest later." Gu Chen looked at Qian Shen.

Qian Shen recovered from his shock.

He knew that Gu Chen's ability to be directly appointed as the director by the headquarters of the county's Night Watch Division meant that he was definitely not simple.

But I never expected Gu Chen to be so strong.

No wonder he dared to immediately order the entire Night Watch of Luo'an County to attack the demon forces within the county upon his arrival.

He was truly preparing for a major purge of these demonic forces.

Will he succeed?

The demonic forces in Luo'an County involve too many things, and the interests of many people in the Divine Dynasty are also involved.

It's not as simple as just wiping out a bunch of demon forces.

It has affected the interests of these important figures.

How will Gu Chen handle this situation?

Where will their night watchmen of Luo'an County be taken next?

Having already gone astray, can they ever turn back?

Can Gu Chen really bring back a clear sky to Luo'an County?

He wouldn't have believed it before, but now he feels there's a sliver of a possibility.

He might settle scores with me then.

If he actually succeeds.

"Sir, you go ahead, leave this to us." Qian Shen looked at Gu Chen.

"Mm." Gu Chen nodded.

I'm preparing to travel with Zhong Hao to Qing Gou Ridge.

I thought about it.

Gu Chen then chopped off the heads of the dog demon at the second level of the Innate Realm and the two dog demons at the first level of the Innate Realm.

"Wrap it up for me and take it with you to Qinggou Ridge," Gu Chen said to Zhong Hao.

"Yes." Zhong Hao didn't ask any more questions and did as instructed.

He doesn't like to think.

They only like to execute commands.

He's the kind of person who's too lazy to use his brain.

Gu Chen is the director, and he is the night watchman.

He doesn't understand how to devise a strategy to deal with these dog demons.

He preferred that Gu Chen directly tell him who he wanted to kill!

Just kill whichever demon you want.

All the way to Qinggouling.

Gu Chen remained silent, and Zhong Hao also did not speak.

The two of them silently arrived at the lair of the dog demons.

Their doghouse was a stinking dog hole.

The stench, a foul odor, seemed to coalesce into a tangible yellow haze, spreading outwards.

On either side of the dog hole, there were two rows of human skulls.

Neat and orderly, it seemed that by doing so, these dog demons could better demonstrate their majesty.

The arrival of Gu Chen and Zhong Hao.

This immediately caught the attention of the two guard dog demons.

Soon, a group of dog demons emerged from the dog hole.

An adult old dog demon, significantly larger than the other dog demons.

He was the last to emerge from the dog hole.

It was clearly the dog demon king of Qinggou Ridge.

Two small dog demons carried its weapon, an extremely heavy spiked club.

Before it could even ask what the purpose of Gu Chen and the other person's visit was, it was already gone.

Why didn't the dog demon who went down the mountain to pick up the people return?

Gu Chen then had Zhong Hao throw the three dog heads in front of it.

"It's just a small token, nothing more." Gu Chen looked at the old dog demon, his expression full of provocation.

Seeing this, the old dog demon's face darkened.

"These are the heads of my second son and two grandsons!" The old dog demon wasn't very bright either.

Its current strength at the mid-stage of the third realm of innate talent is entirely due to its long life.

It has three dog demon sons at the second level of the Innate Realm and eight grandsons at the first level of the Innate Realm.

"I used to have many sons, but as time went by, most of them were killed by enemies or died in accidents. It's not easy for them to grow up to have the strength of the second level of the innate realm." The old dog demon looked at Gu Chen.

"My plan is that if one or two of them live to my age and advance to the third level of the Innate Realm, I will be satisfied and they can take over my position."

Why can't you just let me have my way?

"Let me think. You're the new expert from your Luo'an County Night Watch. You always like to do this. Every now and then, one or two strong fighters will come and kill one or two of my sons or grandsons, and then I'll kill them in return."

"I really hate this!" The old dog demon gritted his teeth and looked at Gu Chen.

"And then?" Gu Chen looked at the old dog demon. "Should I apologize to you?"

"Don't you people really enjoy eating people, and come down from the mountain to eat a few every now and then?"

"I hate you guys too!" Gu Chen drew his Fire Profound Blade.

"If you die today, no one can save you," the old dog demon said. "Bring me my spiked club. I'm going to use it to smash this human into mincemeat and avenge my son, grandson, and great-grandson."

It has been decided.

Since Gu Chen killed its second son and two grandsons who were at the first level of the Innate Realm.

And then there are those great-grandchildren who haven't reached the Innate Realm.

Once it kills Gu Chen, it will lead its sons and grandsons down the mountain and devour all the humans in Siye Village to vent its hatred.

It's the humans in front of us who broke the rules first, so we can't blame them.

puff!

The old dog demon has just finished speaking.

Gu Chen's Fire Profound Blade pierced right through its body.

It didn't even realize when Gu Chen had approached it and attacked it.

Not only was it caught off guard, but the other dog demons and Zhong Hao were also caught off guard.

The old dog demon could no longer discern what realm Gu Chen was in.

All it knew was that it was very strong, at least at the fourth level of the Innate Realm, or perhaps the fifth level.

"I'm a little more merciful than you. I won't chop you into mincemeat; I'll just kill you," Gu Chen said to it.

Then the Fire Xuan Blade was drawn, and the old dog demon staggered and fell to the ground, making a hoarse sound from his throat.

It must have wanted to say something, but it couldn't.

"Ancestor, you killed the ancestor!" The group of dog demons were shocked.

A group of dog demons who were not yet at the Innate Realm and had just awakened their intelligence felt that their IQ was not low, but they could not figure it out in a short time.

Their ancestors were clearly very powerful just a moment ago, how did they die in the blink of an eye?

Only the two sons of the old dog demon, both at the second level of the innate realm, could react to what was going on.

They've met their match this time.

Even their father was killed.

The person in front of me is serious.

"Don't kill us. We can leave Qinggou Ridge and never come out again. We can stay in the Ten Thousand Mountains. Actually, we don't have to eat people. Although human flesh tastes delicious, we can do it with our willpower." It tried to explain and beg for mercy.

"Is that so?" Gu Chen appeared in front of it the next second.

A flash of light appeared.

Its dog head flew up.

"But I want to eat dog meat," Gu Chen said.

The old dog demon's son's eyes were wide open even as he died.

It was a bit hard to understand.

"Okay, I was just kidding. You look so decent, I can't bring myself to do it," Gu Chen said calmly.
