Demon Suppression Division: Starting as a Jailer in the Cycle of Reincarnation to Become a Martial G

Looking at the fox demon who had died at his doorstep, Su Wu was somewhat troubled.

Although his movements were swift and clean, and made little noise, they did not attract the attention of Su Xiaohui inside the courtyard.

However, if a fox demon dies outside one's own door, and one tries to conceal it, the people of the Demon Suppression Bureau will find it difficult to explain themselves if they investigate.

"Then we won't hide it anymore!"

"Report it to the authorities immediately!"

Anyway, I didn't order this fox demon to do it, so what's there to be afraid of?

The only thing he couldn't let go of was Su Xiaohui, who was sleeping alone in the courtyard.

Thinking of this, Su Wu gently pushed open the door, peeked out, and carefully listened to the sounds inside the courtyard.

After confirming that Su Xiaohui had not been disturbed, Su Wu carefully closed the courtyard gate again, then took out a lock and locked the gate, dragging the fox demon's corpse towards the direction of the Demon Suppression Division.

He dared not leave the fox demon's corpse at his doorstep; who knew what might happen?

Even if the fox demon had accomplices seeking revenge, they would surely follow the trail to find him, and wouldn't take their anger out on Xiao Hui.

The journey from Xizhaofang to Zhenmosi is not far, but it's not exactly close either.

Fortunately, Su Wu now possesses the cultivation level of the seventh stage of Body Tempering, so dragging a fox demon's corpse is not too strenuous for him.

Taking advantage of a brief moment while traveling, Su Wu glanced at the fox demon's corpse, his mind racing as he tried to guess its origins.

The very obvious characteristic of a fox demon immediately reminded Su Wu of the six-tailed fox demon he had encountered in the Demon Suppression Prison.

"If it's not a coincidence, the most likely scenario is that this gray fox was sent by the original body that the six-tailed fox mentioned before it died."

Beings who have cultivated to that level are definitely more appreciative of life than other demons and would not dare to enter the city without permission.

In addition, considering his performance in the Demon Suppression Prison, he was just an ordinary person without any cultivation. It was most likely that he would send a minor demon to kill him.

However, this little demon's cultivation level wasn't very high, only around the sixth level of the Body Tempering Realm. Plus, since I had the advantage of catching it off guard, it was killed by me before I could even use the Mountain-Breaking Blade.

Looking at the fox demon's corpse, Su Wu couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion.

Once upon a time, I was a sickly person who couldn't even kill a chicken. I never thought that I would be able to do the feat of killing a fox demon who had reached the sixth level of body tempering on my own.

"But I need to figure out how to explain this to the people from the Demon Suppression Division later."

Although he had now killed the fox demon, Su Wu, being cautious due to his previous deaths, did not want to reveal his full cultivation level.

Su Wu always felt that the Demon-Suppressing Pillar that Liu Dashan passed on to him, which could devour evil spirits, would easily arouse suspicion from the Demon-Suppressing Division.

It's understandable that casually revealing a cultivation level of two or three stages of the Body Tempering Realm is the upper limit.

"In that case, I will reveal my cultivation level as the third level of the Body Tempering Realm, and then say that I am launching a sneak attack on the fox demon when it was not paying attention."

Just as I was thinking this, two sharp shouts suddenly came from the street in the distance.

"Who is it?"

"Curfew ahead! Halt!"

The nighttime environment is complex, and in order to prevent chaos and give demons an opportunity to take advantage, all cities in the Tang Dynasty strictly enforced curfews, and even small cities like Lin'an were not exempt.

At the end of the street, two Demon Suppression Guards dressed in the night patrol uniforms spotted Su Wu and hurried over to him.

He even reminded them while running.

"Don't move! Anyone who moves without authorization will be killed without mercy!"

Faced with the two Demon Suppression Guards' handling of the situation, Su Wu naturally did not make any rash moves. Instead, he put down the gray fox's corpse, took out his Demon Suppression Prison token from his waist, and shouted loudly.

"Su Wu, the jailer of the Demon-Suppressing Prison in Lin'an, Tang Dynasty, whose pen name is Wu!"

After hearing Su Wu introduce himself, the two approaching Demon Suppression Guards breathed a sigh of relief.

"So you're the jailer brothers from the Demon Suppression Prison."

They slowed their pace and approached Su Wu. One of them took Su Wu's waist token for examination, while the other was responsible for questioning him.

"Su Wu, right?"

"As a member of our Demon Suppression Division, you should know very well that there is a curfew in Lin'an City. What are you doing out here so late at night instead of sleeping?"

As they were talking, another Demon Suppression Guard finished examining Su Wu's waist token and returned it to him.

"The identity has been verified; there are no issues."

"But as Brother Lu just asked, why aren't you staying in the Demon Suppression Prison or at home? What are you doing out here so late at night?"

Faced with questioning from the two Demon Suppression Guards, Su Wu no longer concealed anything and kicked the corpse of the gray fox at his feet.

"Sir, I'm reporting this to the police."

"A fox demon attacked my house at night, but I discovered it and killed it."

"I've come to report this crime!"

"A fox demon?" Upon hearing this, the two demon-suppressing guards frowned and quickly followed Su Wu's gaze to look at their feet.

One of the demon-suppressing guards even squatted down and touched the gray fox's corpse.

"Brother Lu, it really is a fox demon!"

"A gray fox at the sixth level of Body Tempering!"

Upon hearing this, another demon-suppressing guard also quickly squatted down to examine the body.

After confirming the gray fox's corpse beneath their feet, the two Demon Guards looked at Su Wu with a different gaze.

"Brother, did you kill this fox demon?"

"Um."

Upon receiving Su Wu's reply, both Demon Suppression Guards gasped in shock.

"Judging from the abundance of your martial arts qi and blood, you are at most at the third level of Body Tempering, yet you were able to kill this gray fox alone."

"Although this gray fox is lacking in combat prowess and supernatural abilities, it has the ability to bewitch people's minds, and many of its colleagues have suffered because of this."

"You look young, but you've got some skills."

Faced with their praise, Su Wu responded modestly.

"It's nothing, just luck."

"If we were to face this fox demon head-on, I might not be a match for it."

Upon hearing this, the two Demon-Suppressing Guards became intrigued and demanded that Su Wu reconstruct the events at the crime scene.

Su Wu did not hide anything and told the whole story of how he discovered the fox demon's whereabouts, ambushed it, and killed it.

However, he deliberately concealed the fact that he could hide his cultivation level and realm.

Listening to Su Wu's description, the two Demon Suppression Guards looked at Su Wu with even more admiration in their eyes.

"Wise and brave, he fought valiantly against the fox demon."

"You're quite a talent, kid."

As they were talking, the Demon Guard surnamed Lu spoke to another Demon Guard beside him.

"Han Bing, demons have entered the city and entered Xizhaofang to harm people. This is no small matter. Go to the vicinity of Brother Su's house immediately to investigate."

After speaking, Lu Ming turned his gaze to Su Wu.

"Brother Su, you will now come back to the Demon Suppression Division with me."

"Mm." Su Wu knew the situation was urgent, so he picked up the gray fox's corpse from the ground and dragged it along with Lu Ming toward the Demon Suppression Division.
