Looking at Li Hong and the bull demon, who were already lifeless, Chen Duo's eyes narrowed slightly.

Wu Er, standing to the side, secretly clenched his fists.

Fortunately, Chen Duo did not lose his composure. He took a deep breath and turned his gaze toward Su Wu and Liu Dashan.

"They're all dead."

"You two killed him?"

In response to Chen Duo's question, Liu Dashan immediately bowed respectfully to Chen Duo.

"This is indeed the case, Your Excellency the Prison Secretary."

"This demon was ferocious; it was killed by Su Wu and me working together."

"Is it really you two?" Hearing this, Chen Duo looked at Su Wu with some suspicion, sensing that he only had the cultivation level of the third level of the Body Tempering Realm, and still found it hard to believe.

"Li Hong, who was at the seventh level of the Body Tempering Realm, is dead."

"Su Wu is only at the third level of Body Tempering. It's already quite remarkable that he survived the bull demon's attack."

"We can even team up with you to kill the bull demon?"

Faced with Chen Duo's suspicion, Su Wu, standing next to Liu Dashan, hesitated before speaking up.

"Actually, it wasn't really a collaboration..."

"It was mainly Uncle Liu who was attacking, while I was responsible for harassing and disrupting the bull demon's mind."

Hearing Su Wu's reply, Chen Duo nodded slightly.

"That makes sense."

As he spoke, Chen Duo looked at Liu Dashan in front of him with a meaningful expression.

"Liu Dashan, I didn't realize that even though you were injured back then and your martial arts cultivation was almost destroyed, you can still retain this kind of strength."

Faced with Chen Duo's praise, Liu Dashan's honest face showed a little embarrassment.

"You flatter me, Sir."

"I, Lao Liu, am just an ordinary prison guard in the Wu-class prison, and I had no intention of fighting this bull demon."

"But if I retreat today, the brothers in the Ding and Wu groups behind me may be plunged into dire straits."

"I can't back out."

Speaking of this, Liu Dashan may have aggravated the wounds from his previous battle with the bull demon. He coughed a few times and coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood.

He looked at Su Wu beside him with a face full of satisfaction.

"If it weren't for Su boy risking his life to distract the bull demon in today's battle, I, Old Liu, would probably be dead here today and wouldn't be able to see you two again."

As he spoke, Liu Dashan took a deep breath, forcibly calming his breathing, and looked sincerely at Chen Duo and Wu Er in front of him.

"Chen, the prison clerk; Wu, the clerk."

"Young Su performed admirably today; shall we record a commendation for him?"

Faced with Liu Dashan's request, Chen Duo, who was standing in front of the two, nodded slightly.

"Yes, Su Wu has performed so well twice in a row, it should be recorded and reported."

"Our Demon Suppression Prison should promote and praise this kind of brave and fearless spirit."

As he spoke, Chen Duo walked to the side of the bull demon's corpse, and his eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at the neatly cleaved body.

"Such swift and fierce swordsmanship."

Then, he walked to Li Hong's body, reached out and pulled out the cow horn that was stuck in his throat, and examined it carefully.

Then he examined Ding Sishi's damaged cell door and gently ran his fingers along the cracks in the wall.

After a moment, Chen Duo waved to Liu Dashan and Su Wu, who looked somewhat shaken.

"Alright, I understand. You can go back now."

"Having gone through such a life-or-death crisis, you all deserve a good rest."

"In addition, I will report this and have the Imperial Medical Bureau come to examine and treat your internal ailments. You can just wait quietly in your dormitories."

Upon hearing Chen Duo's instructions, Liu Dashan and Su Wu quickly thanked Chen Duo, bowed, and turned to walk out of the passageway.

Watching the two figures turn and leave, Wu Er's eyes flashed with undisguised killing intent. He gripped the hilt of his knife, wanting to follow them.

But Chen Duo grabbed him.

After Su Wu and Liu Dashan had gone far away, Wu Er finally broke free from Chen Duo and looked at Chen Duo with some confusion.

"Lord Prisoner, why did you stop me just now?"

"Liu Dashan and Su Wu have just gone through a major battle and are in a weakened state."

"I'll take this opportunity to kill them all, and everyone'll be happy!"

Hearing Wu Er's somewhat dissatisfied words, Chen Duo snorted coldly.

"madness!"

"Su Wu was easy to kill, but what about Liu Dashan?"

"Let's not even talk about whether he left any backup plans before his martial arts cultivation was shattered."

"His network of connections within this Demon Suppression Prison is something neither you nor I can compare to."

"Are there any people he doesn't know who use the names A, B, C, and D?"

"He even has connections with the Demon Suppression Bureau above us, in addition to the Demon Suppression Prison!"

"The others may die, but if Liu Dashan dies, unless we leave this Demon Suppression Prison, we'll all be buried with him!"

Upon hearing this, Wu Er was momentarily stunned.

"No, Sir, is Liu Dashan really that difficult to deal with?"

In response to Wu Er's question, Chen Duo's snort grew louder.

"Otherwise, why do you think this prison warden always tries to separate Su Wu and his accomplices every time he plots against them?"

"If there is no concrete evidence that there is a real threat to you or me, then Liu Dashan should try to remain still as much as possible."

As he spoke, Chen Duo squatted down and turned his gaze to the bull demon's corpse, which had been neatly cleaved in two by a single blow.

"Wu Er, putting everything else aside, just this one strike alone, could you really pull it off?"

"It can cleave the bull demon, which has activated its Qi Condensation cultivation, in two with a single strike."

"I haven't seen such sharp swordsmanship in a long time."

Faced with Chen Duo's praise, Wu Er squatted down and gently touched the wounds on the bull demon's corpse.

"I absolutely could not bring myself to deliver such a powerful strike."

"I never expected that Liu Dashan, who was only at the Body Tempering Realm, could unleash such a powerful strike."

"If he were to enter the Qi Condensation Realm, who knows what kind of strength he would possess."

Amidst these reflections, Wu Er couldn't help but think of Su Wu again.

"But, Your Honor, what about Su Wu?"

"What should we do? Should we continue targeting them?"

"Absolutely!" Chen Duo stood up as soon as Wu Er finished speaking.

"Su Wu and the fox demon spent too much time alone together, and no one can guarantee that the fox demon didn't say anything to the little cub."

"Although, according to this kid, he was in a daze at the time and didn't remember what the fox demon said."

"But who knows, he might suddenly remember something one day, and the potential risks are too great."

As he spoke, Chen Duo kicked Li Hong's corpse away.

"Useless thing, you didn't even take the opportunity to get rid of that brat Su Wu, and you even got yourself killed in the process."

"It looks so unlucky!"

"Wu Er, hurry up and find someone to clean this place up."

At this point, Chen Duo turned to look in the direction where Su Wu and Liu Dashan had left.

"As for Su Wu, we'll deal with him another time!"

"While we at Demon Suppression Prison may lack other things, we'll never lack opportunities for demonic chaos!"
