The most ruthless person in the Demon Suppression Division

"father!"

While Zhao Heng and Lin Yuyan were in utter shock.

Huang Lao Er also let out a scream.

He originally thought that with his father's help, he would be able to easily take down these guys from the Demon Suppression Division.

But who could have imagined that Xu Ye would be so terrifying?

He cleaved his father in two with a single stroke.

That's terrifying strength!

How could this happen?

Huang Lao Er found it hard to accept.

But he was only sad for a moment before realizing his situation.

Even his father, who was at the ninth level of the Qi Refining Realm, died.

Then what is he?

Staying here is just waiting to die!

Therefore, Huang Lao Er, who had recovered somewhat, got up and prepared to sneak away.

As long as he leaves this place, he will still have a chance to take revenge later.

"Boss Xu, he's trying to run away!"

Lin Yuyan noticed this and immediately spoke up to remind them.

Xu Ye merely glanced at it.

He then threw the demon-slaying sword in his hand.

The blade flashed across the night.

With a soft "poof".

As soon as Huang Lao Er got up, the Demon-Slaying Blade pierced through its demonic body effortlessly.

In the end, Huang Lao Er also died unwillingly.

With that, both weasel demons were killed, and the crisis was over.

Xu Ye stepped forward leisurely, drew the Demon-Slaying Blade. The blade was bright, and no blood stained his body. Then he sheathed it.

After Xu Ye finished doing all this, Lin Yuyan stepped forward.

Even Zhao Heng, who had regained some strength, struggled to his feet and walked over.

However, the way the two looked at Xu Ye became extremely complicated.

No one could have imagined that Xu Ye would actually have the strength of the ninth level of the Meridian Opening Realm.

Lin Yuyan wanted to ask something, but in the end she was too embarrassed to speak.

But Zhao Heng didn't have so many concerns.

He gritted his teeth and said, "Damn it, weren't you supposed to be at the sixth level of the Meridian Opening stage? How did you become the ninth level?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Yuyan looked at Xu Ye and listened intently.

Xu Ye said calmly, "When did I ever say I was at the sixth level of the Meridian Opening stage?"

"Isn't that what you yourselves think?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Yuyan and Zhao Heng were even more stunned.

Yes!

When did they say that?

Didn't they always believe that Xu Ye was at the sixth level of the Meridian Opening stage?

Zhao Heng gritted his teeth and said, "Weren't you at the sixth level of the Meridian Opening stage when you took the test?"

Xu Ye scoffed: "A test is a test, but which rule of the Demon Suppression Division states that you have to go all out?"

"What the hell? You..." Zhao Heng was stunned upon hearing this.

Holy crap!

That makes so much sense!

The Demon Suppression Division does not have such a rule!

But who doesn't give their all when taking a test?

Who would have thought that Xu Ye would keep something to himself?

This guy is just pretending to be weak while actually being strong!

When Zhao Heng thought about his previous crazy performance in trying to surpass Xu Ye, he felt a wave of shame and anger.

He, a mere sixth-level cultivator, was trying to compare himself to someone at the ninth level of the Meridian Opening Realm.

And they want to surpass it.

They were getting completely crushed from the very beginning!

But this guy just won't say it.

Is this guy just watching me make a fool of myself?

Thinking this, Zhao Heng felt both frustrated and angry.

But then he suddenly remembered something, his face contorted with rage as he pointed at Xu Ye and said, "Damn it! When you fought me before, were you doing it on purpose? Were you just trying to use this as an excuse for personal gain?"

Previously, Xu Ye had competed with him for the position of group leader, and Xu Ye had given him a severe beating.

This guy clearly knows that his strength is only at the sixth level of the Meridian Opening stage, far inferior to his.

But he agreed anyway, which was clearly a case of using public office for private gain.

I want to hit myself!

Xu Ye shrugged. "That's not my fault, you asked for it yourself!"

"You..." Zhao Heng almost spat out a mouthful of blood upon hearing this.

That makes so much sense!

He was truly powerless to refute it.

Because it was all something he actively requested.

Doesn't that mean he asked to be beaten?

How despicable!

That wretched Xu Ye!

What a sly woman who pretends to be weak to actually do something cunning!

"Alright! If you're not as good as others, stop making excuses for yourself." At this point, Lin Yuyan couldn't stand it anymore and interrupted.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Heng, unusually, did not refute it.

I felt extremely frustrated.

He has always been very arrogant.

They believe they are no less capable than their peers.

Facing Xu Ye now, he began to doubt himself for the first time.

At this moment, Lin Yuyan turned to Xu Ye and asked, "How did you achieve the ninth level of the Meridian Opening Realm at eighteen?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Heng suddenly looked up at Xu Ye.

He also wanted to know.

Xu Ye said calmly, "You'll get it with practice. Do you really need any special techniques?"

Heaven rewards diligence; you'll get results if you practice. Isn't that normal?

Upon hearing this, Lin Yuyan and Zhao Heng fell silent.

Utter silence.

Some teeth even feel sensitive.

He even had the urge to beat Xu Ye up.

How despicable!

never mind!

There's really nothing to say to Xu Ye.

Comparing yourself to others will only make you miserable!

Seeing the two of them like this, Xu Ye shook his head slightly.

What is this?

If these two knew that he had only been cultivating for a few days, he would be like this.

Wouldn't that scare him to death?

And so, the three fell silent, preparing to clean up the mess.

"what?"

"It was resolved so quickly?"

Just then, a voice suddenly came.

Xu Ye and the others looked in the direction of the sound.

Then they saw Lü Tao standing on a rooftop somewhere.

The next moment, he flashed and landed in front of Xu Ye and the others.

"Lord Lü!"

Upon seeing Lü Tao, Xu Ye and the others clasped their hands in a slight fist and palm salute.

Lu Tao waved his hand slightly and looked at Xu Ye, saying, "Don't be so polite, we're on the same level, just call me Brother Tao!"

Xu Ye was speechless!

This guy calls his father "Old Xu".

If I keep calling him "brother," the relationship will become too complicated.

Seeing this, Lü Tao laughed and said, "Don't mind it, we're all just people from the martial world, let's each do our own thing."

"Okay, Brother Tao!" Xu Ye nodded.

Lin Yuyan and the others remained silent.

Lu Tao nodded in satisfaction and walked toward the corpses of the two demons.

He glanced at the old weasel's corpse, then clicked his tongue, "Tsk tsk, the cut is clean, perfect, without a single flaw, cut in two with one stroke, what exquisite swordsmanship. Brother Xu, your mastery of the Demon-Subduing Sword Technique is truly impressive, far superior to mine."

Hearing Lü Tao's praise, Lin Yuyan didn't think much of it.

Zhao Heng, however, felt a pang of jealousy.

Why should I?

However, upon considering Xu Ye's strength, he backed down.

That's enough!

Xu Ye laughed and said, "Brother Tao, you flatter me."

Lu Tao waved his hand slightly, "To kill a demon at the ninth level of the Meridian Opening Realm with a single strike, this strength is far beyond what an ordinary person at the ninth level of the Meridian Opening Realm can achieve."

As he spoke, he looked at Xu Ye and said, "Brother Xu, it might not be long before I have to address you respectfully as Lord Xu."

The Demon Suppression Division prioritizes strength above all else, regardless of merit.

As long as one has enough ability, promotion to official rank is a piece of cake.

Xu Ye is now eighteen years old, and his sword strike is that of a demon with nine levels of meridians.

It's only a matter of time before I'm promoted to White Robe.

The future looks so bright I can't sleep!

It's true what they say, comparisons are the thief of joy.

Xu Ye laughed and said, "Brother Tao, you're joking. I've only recently become a Demon Suppression Guard and still need to rely on you."

Lu Tao shook his head slightly, not saying anything more on the topic.

He then laughed and said, "Killing a minor demon at the fourth level of the Meridian Opening Realm and a demon at the ninth level of the Meridian Opening Realm is quite an achievement. Brother Xu, you've really struck gold this time."
