Chapter 21: Eastern Wilderness County, Demon Emerges

  Great Jin State

  This is a vast and broad land, with an area of millions of miles. On this land, there are five high mountains, each with a large immortal gate. At the same time, many other mountain ranges also have immortals cultivating, as well as schools of immortal cultivation, but they are not as powerful as the Five Great Immortal Gates.

  The underground is a vast and almost boundless world, where there are also many powerful demons. The deeper you go into the ground, the greater the possibility of encountering these powerful demons. Although they live beneath the surface, in the depths of the earth, occasionally there will be places where they can emerge from the ground to the surface.

  It is precisely for this reason that many immortal sects require their disciples to slay demons and eliminate evil.

  Behead the demons under the earth, eliminate the devils under the earth.

  This is what is meant by beheading demons and eliminating evil spirits.

  In the Great Jin Dynasty, there were often immortals and underground demons appearing.

  The court of the Great Jin Dynasty itself still has a certain amount of power, although it cannot be compared to the five major immortal sects, but there are also some cultivators who have joined the court of the Great Jin Dynasty.

  English Translation:

  Great Jin Country, Dongping Province, East Dao Prefecture, Dongye County.

  Something has been amiss in Dongye County recently.

  The Dongye County was originally quite peaceful, but two months ago, in the vicinity of Guangyeshan Mountain to the east of Dongye County, a demon appeared and attacked people. At first, there were not many deaths, but later on, almost everyone who passed by the official road near Guangyeshan Mountain would be attacked and killed by the demon.

  At this time, Dongye County was immediately in chaos.

  There's a monster!

  Yao and Mo, for ordinary people in the mortal world, are quite frightening things. The county magistrate of Dongye County has also been worried to death recently. Dongye County is a remote small county, and there are not many official roads nearby. The one near Guangye Mountain is an important official road. If that official road cannot be walked by humans, basically, Dongye County will soon be isolated from the outside world.

  The county magistrate of Dongye was worried to death. His purpose in becoming an official was not some great and noble goal, but rather the so-called "three years of clean government" and "one hundred thousand silver taels". His purpose in becoming an official was simply for that white silver, but with the appearance of demons and monsters in this area, his own life might not be preserved, let alone the silver.

  The county magistrate of Dongye also knew that those demons were not something he could handle himself. He had seen the power of demons when he was in Dongzhou before, which was a destructive force that only cultivators could deal with. The county magistrate of Dongye was also someone who had stayed in Dongzhou, a big place where ordinary people called Xianchang, and the county magistrate knew that they were called cultivators.

  Of course, it's not easy to invite an immortal.

  It's not easy, but I finally invited a few people over.

  At this time, it was heard that the fourth brother of Lu Fang, the head of the county, was also a cultivator who had recently come down from the mountain. The magistrate of Dongye County was overjoyed and immediately invited Lu Fang to invite his fourth brother. Although it was said that his fourth brother had only been cultivating with the immortal for seven years, which should not be enough time to achieve anything, after all, he was a cultivator, and one more cultivator would mean one more source of power.

  This is also good for dealing with the demon of Guangye Mountain.

  Donglin Town

  "Has a demon appeared on Guangye Mountain?" Lu Yuan heard this news and couldn't help but furrow his brow.

  Ogres should be ogres that have crawled out from underground.

  Originally, Lu Yuan only intended to visit his family and didn't want to fight any demons. When he was leaving the mountain, his master Li Yuanbai warned him that the underground demons were not to be trifled with, their strength was not inferior to the five major immortal sects, and he must absolutely not go to the underground. Lu Yuan had never been someone who interfered in other people's business anyway.

  However, the current situation is that if the demons on Mount Guangye are not dealt with, Lu Fang, the eldest brother who serves as the leader of the city guards, and Lu Ye, the second brother who serves as a city guard, will inevitably clash with the demons. As mortals, they will be no match for the demons in battle. As a cultivator, I understand just how formidable the demons are, and it's absolutely not something that mortal flesh and blood can handle.

  It can't be helped, it seems like I have no choice but to go and fight those demons.

  Of course, I didn't go against what Master Li Bai said either.

  What the master said was that he himself did not go to the bottom of the earth, and he himself had not gone to the bottom of the earth. It was just a demon from the bottom of the earth that ran out and drilled onto the surface of the earth.

  It's also good to be able to fight against monsters and demons.

  After all, to be honest, I'm a bit itchy myself. Having cultivated for seven years, every day listening to the seniors of the sect talk about slaying demons and eliminating devils, but never having slain any demons or eliminated any devils. Today, I'll go take a look, just how strong are those demons and devils? Anyway, even if I'm not dead set on it, if I really can't beat them, I can always escape.

  "Alright, I'll go with you to the county yamen," said Lu Yuan. First, they went to the county yamen. It was said that the magistrate of Dongye County had also invited a few cultivators to join forces and exorcise the demon together.

  It is said that both Lu Dafu and Lu Zhangshi were extremely worried: "Yuanni, you have only cultivated for seven years, how can you be a match for the demon? You can't go."

  Lu Yuan shook his head: "Father, mother, don't worry, I'm just going to take a look. If I really can't defeat that demon, I'll escape and you can rest assured."

  Then, naturally, it was led by Eldest Brother Lu Fang and Second Brother Lu Ye, with the three of them riding their horses straight to the county government office in Dongye County.

  Dongye County is indeed much more prosperous than Donglin Town. Lu Fang said with some pride, "Dongye County, the county town is quite prosperous, I plan to move to the county town in the future." As a captain, he earns a lot of money every year, and it's not difficult for him to buy a large mansion in the county town.

  Along both sides of the street, there were shops, rice stores, grain stores, pawnshops and so on. It was very prosperous, far more than Donglin Town could compare to. However, the number of pedestrians had clearly decreased since rumors spread that a demon had appeared in Guangye Mountain, which was just nearby. The county town had become much quieter as a result. But Lu Yuan was now used to grand scenes, having even seen the palaces within the Immortal Gate that touched the sky. So he naturally wouldn't be too surprised by what was before him and simply glanced at it casually.

  Finally arrived at Dongye County Government Office, the county government office is a very large mansion. In front of the county government office, there is a big drum, which is the drum for reporting grievances. If you have any grievances, you can report them here. The steps at the entrance are as high as nine levels, and people standing on the steps look down at those below. On both sides of the steps, there are two stone lions, one person tall, extremely ferocious and majestic. The two red-lacquered large doors are equipped with bright yellow copper rings.

  What a magnificent county government office! It indeed has some dignity and prestige!

  "Get up early."

  "Got it, good." Lu Fang was the local captain, with a relatively high status. From time to time, people would greet Lu Fang, but when these captors greeted Lu Fang, they all looked at Lu Yuan. It's clear that they had all heard that Captain Lu's fourth brother was an immortal. In the past, immortals were always old men, and it was rare to see such a young immortal.

  After a while, the fat and chubby Dongye County Master Huang Guang also came out to greet him. The cultivator was much higher than this humble county master, his enthusiastic emotions, the fatty meat on his face was shaking: "Lu Bu, this is your fourth brother, indeed it's a fairy wind and bone, young hero ah."

  While praising Luanding Yuan, Huang Xianling was also secretly muttering to himself in his heart, such a young immortal, really hasn't been seen before.

  People say that those who have no hair on their upper lip are unreliable in handling matters.

  Can such a young fairy be effective?

  The demon of Mount Guangye is not easy to fight, and I don't know how many people it has eaten. (To be continued.)
