Xu Ye nodded and said, "No matter what happened, if demons are causing trouble, then it falls under the jurisdiction of our Demon Suppression Division. We will not let it go."

"Thank you so much, Brother Xu Ye!" Zhang Xiaohan quickly kowtowed again, deeply grateful.

Xu Ye quickly helped Zhang Xiaohan up.

At this moment, Lin Yuyan frowned and said, "Chief Xu, but now there's a problem. This demon is hiding in the shadows, while we're in the open. How are we supposed to find it?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Heng glanced to the side.

He had no idea about that.

Xu Ye then looked at Zhang Xiaohan and said, "Xiaohan, if you want to avenge your parents, you'll have to do me a favor."

"I'm willing to do anything to avenge my parents," Zhang Xiaohan said, clenching her fist.

"Boss Xu, what do you want to do?" Lin Yuyan asked.

Xu Ye pondered for a moment and said, "Weasels are the most vengeful creatures. Once they set their sights on you, they won't let it go until you've completely gotten rid of them."

"Although they killed Xiaohan's parents, Xiaohan is still alive. According to their habits, they will not stop until they have wiped them out completely."

"I believe that as long as Xiaohan is alive, it will definitely come back to me."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiaohan's face turned pale. "Brother Xu Ye, do you mean those demons still want to kill me?"

Xu Ye nodded slightly, "Weasels hold grudges, that's for sure."

Zhang Xiaohan's face turned pale; she was clearly frightened.

She doesn't want to die!

At this moment, Xu Ye said, "That's why I want Xiaohan to do me a favor."

Lin Yuyan immediately replied, "Does Boss Xu mean to lure the snake out of its hole?"

Xu Ye nodded slightly.

Zhang Xiaohan's face turned even paler. "Brother Xu Ye, are you trying to use me as bait?"

Xu Ye nodded, "If we want to completely eliminate that thing, we have to do it this way. Otherwise, it will keep hiding, and we won't be able to do anything about it."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiaohan lowered her head.

It was clear that she was scared.

That's normal. After all, she's just a little girl. It would be strange if she weren't afraid to face demons.

Seeing this, Xu Ye quickly comforted her, "Don't worry, Xiao Han. Just stay inside the house. As soon as the demon shows itself, we'll kill it. You'll be fine."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiaohan remained silent.

Seeing this, Zhao Heng snorted and said, "Weren't you just saying you were willing to do anything?"

Zhang Xiaohan trembled all over.

Xu Ye glared at Zhao Heng, "Shut up!"

She knew Zhang Xiaohan was indeed scared, but more importantly, she needed to be mentally prepared.

Sure enough, after a moment, Zhang Xiaohan raised her head and said firmly, "Brother Xu Ye, I'm willing!"

"I'm willing to do anything to avenge my parents."

Xu Ye nodded slightly and patted Zhang Xiaohan on the shoulder. "Don't worry! I'll make sure you're safe."

Zhang Xiaohan nodded firmly, "I believe in Brother Xu Ye."

Without further ado, Xu Ye proceeded to make the arrangements.

No matter how arrogant that weasel demon was, it wouldn't dare to come out during the day.

Therefore, we have to wait until night to take it down.

Xu Ye then told Zhang Xiaohan to go down and rest first, and come back here in the evening.

As for Lin Yuyan and Zhao Heng, Xu Ye let them do whatever they wanted and told them to come back here to meet up in the evening.

Subsequently, Xu Ye ordered the county officials to evacuate the surrounding residents.

We need to kill the demon tonight so as not to affect these people.

Xu Ye had everything arranged meticulously, waiting for nightfall.

After doing all this, Xu Ye hurried home.

……

When he opened the door, Xu Zhizhi had already prepared the meal and was waiting for him.

Xu Ye glanced up and saw that there was already meat on the table.

Clearly, Xu Zhizhi took his words to heart.

During the meal, Xu Zhizhi's expression turned somewhat sorrowful, and she said, "Brother, I heard that Sister Xiaohan and her whole family have died, and only Sister Xiaohan is left."

Xu Ye nodded slightly, "Yes!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Zhizhi asked, "They all say it's caused by demons, is that true?"

Xu Ye looked at Xu Zhizhi and didn't hide anything, "If nothing unexpected happens, it should be true."

Upon hearing this, Xu Zhizhi's face turned pale.

"How could this be? How could there be demons in the county town?"

Previously, I had only heard of demons and monsters in rumors.

And now, demons have actually appeared beside her, and they've even killed people she knows.

Xu Zhizhi could no longer maintain her composure.

"The world is not peaceful, it's the same everywhere," Xu Ye said.

Upon hearing this, Xu Zhizhi lowered her head slightly, seemingly processing the information.

Seeing this, Xu Ye didn't hide anything and said, "I might have to go out tonight."

Upon hearing this, Xu Zhizhi immediately looked up. She seemed to have guessed something and asked, "Did the Demon Suppression Division send you to handle Xiaohan's family's matter?"

Xu Ye nodded.

At this moment, Xu Zhizhi said, "Brother, then be careful and I will stay at home obediently."

Xu Ye was surprised to hear this.

He thought Xu Zhizhi would say something, but he didn't expect her to agree so readily.

Seemingly understanding Xu Ye's meaning, Xu Zhizhi quickly said, "Xiao Han's family are all good people. They even gave me a new kitchen knife last time. Now they are all dead, and only Xiao Han is left. She is so pitiful. I think you should help Xiao Han get revenge."

She paused for a moment, then added, "Besides, now that you're a Demon Suppression Guard, protecting the people is what you should be doing."

She at least has her brother.

But Xiaohan was all alone.

It's really pitiful.

Moreover, Sister Xiaohan even gave her a kitchen knife.

It's only right that my brother helps her get revenge.

Moreover, she also had to accept the fact that her brother had become a demon-suppressing guard.

Xu Ye smiled and said, "Okay!"

This little girl knows how to repay kindness.

Afterwards, Xu Zhizhi repeatedly reminded Xu Ye to be careful, and only then did she stop.

After dinner, with some time still before nightfall, Xu Ye didn't waste any time and immediately began cultivating.

[Realm: Ninth Level of Meridian Opening]

【Technique: Subduing Demons Scripture [Beginner Level] (100/300)】

[Martial Arts Skill: Demon-Subduing Blade Technique [Beginner] (0/400)]

Time flies by during cultivation, and night falls in the blink of an eye.

After finishing his cultivation, Xu Ye's proficiency level reached 100 after a day of practice. He was still 300 points away from mastering the Demon Subduing Scripture.

Xu Ye guessed that it would probably be another three or four days.

He immediately got up and told Xu Zhizhi not to leave the room.

He slung his demon-slaying sword over his shoulder and went out the door.

When they returned to the blacksmith's shop, Lin Yuyan and Zhao Heng were already waiting for them.

"I thought you didn't dare to come?" Zhao Heng began to mock Xu Ye as soon as he saw him.

Xu Ye couldn't be bothered to pay any attention to this guy.

This guy has a really foul mouth.

He immediately made arrangements, instructing Zhang Xiaohan to hide in a nearby room they had specially prepared.

The three of them then dispersed to the shadows around them to prepare.

Everything is ready; we await the demons to come.

Finally, time flew by, and before we knew it, the sky darkened, and it was already midnight.

Just as Zhao Heng was getting impatient and about to go on strike.

Suddenly, Xu Ye narrowed his eyes and twitched his nose.

He smelled a peculiar stench emanating from him.

Xu Ye sneered, "It's here!"
