I Can Deduce Arts by Slaying Demons
Chapter 241 - 221: Lu Xuan Descends! Divine Sense Oppresses Feihua Prefecture!
Suddenly, a purple glow flashed, and Lu Xuan lifted his gaze to see an astonishingly beautiful face floating gradually in mid-air, clear and discernible, belonging to Zi Yao, the Director of the Profound Bird Guard.
Her features seemed outlined by purple glow, radiating an aura of coldness and mystery.
Her enchanting eyes resembled a serene autumn lake, hiding an indifferent air untouched by the mundane world, akin to the cold stars in a deep night sky.
While Lu Xuan was watching Zi Yao, Zi Yao, who was in the extreme cold region of the north, was also scrutinizing Lu Xuan.
"Can it be true, this young man is the Vice-Director of the Profound Bird Guard, unusually appointed by the Heavenly Emperor?"
"Could I be mistaken, or has Senior Sister’s Spirit Communication Purple Crystal Token malfunctioned?"
At that moment, a startling voice broke the silence, causing a ripple in Zi Yao’s originally cold and tranquil demeanor.
Zi Yao now paid no mind to Lin Yuexi beside her, and with a scrutinizing gaze, slowly spoke.
"Are you Lu Xuan?"
The voice was like the frost wind of a cold night, carrying hints of chill and suspicion.
Not only Lin Yuexi was perplexed, even Zi Yao found it hard to believe that this young man before her could be the Vice-Director of the Profound Bird Guard appointed by the Heavenly Emperor!
"Indeed!" Lu Xuan replied calmly, his expression as undisturbed as a placid lake.
This woman can connect to my Identity Token, what exactly is her status?
Lu Xuan’s response caused a flash of amazement in Zi Yao’s eyes, but she had already begun to gradually accept this reality.
"Mr. Lu, I am Zi Yao, the Director of the Profound Bird Guard. The Southern Domain’s Nether State is afflicted by the Pure World White Lotus Sect’s demons!"
"The Heavenly Emperor decrees, you are to immediately head to Mingzhou Feihua Prefecture to eliminate the White Lotus Nightmare Flower and to eradicate the demons of the Pure World White Lotus Sect, without fail!"
No sooner had Zi Yao finished speaking, without waiting for Lu Xuan’s response, the purple glow in mid-air slowly transformed into stardust and vanished.
"Ming State?"
After hearing these words, Lu Xuan suddenly recalled an event from a month ago.
Li Chengxing had mentioned to him that the Nether State was overrun by demons from the Pure World White Lotus Sect.
Thus, Li Chengxing’s departure from the capital, besides coming to Anzhou White Dao Prefecture to find Lu Xuan, also carried an extremely important mission.
That mission was to personally go to the Nether State and eliminate the demons of the Pure World White Lotus Sect causing chaos among civilians.
Interesting!
Even Li Chengxing, the Vice-Director of the Profound Bird Guard, couldn’t resolve the chaos in the Nether State?
As for the White Lotus Nightmare Flower, Lu Xuan knew a thing or two about it.
Wasn’t this wicked thing already completely destroyed?
With these thoughts, Lu Xuan stood with his hands behind his back, slowly raising his head, his gaze directed to the distant horizon.
A hint of amusement silently climbed onto Lu Xuan’s face, his pupils faintly showing a trace of excitement.
Well then, let’s see what tricks the demons of the Pure World White Lotus Sect can play.
Coincidentally, it’s been a while since Lu Xuan last encountered these fortune-bearing demons of the Pure World White Lotus Sect.
Suddenly!
Footsteps resounded at the entrance of the courtyard.
Soon after, five or six men dressed in Profound Bird uniforms filed in.
Their expressions were heavy and solemn, like being surrounded by lead clouds, emitting a stern vibe that warned others to keep their distance.
However, upon seeing the mess of shattered wooden pieces in the courtyard and Lu Xuan standing there.
The elderly man in the lead, wearing a cyan Profound Bird uniform, suddenly changed his expression, his voice breaking the silence of the courtyard.
"Who are you? Hasn’t the mansion been surrounded by officials already?"
"What are those officials doing, there are those ghostly things around, how could they be so careless to let someone sneak in?"
The elderly man in the cyan uniform was the Profound Bird Guard Envoy of Qingxi Prefecture!
The other Profound Bird Guards, upon Qingxi Prefecture Envoy’s remarks, also showed a tacit understanding.
They swiftly adopted a surrounding stance, their wary eyes fixed like a hawk’s on Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan, noticing they were from Qingxi Prefecture’s Profound Bird Guard, inclined his head slightly to them.
In the next instant, Lu Xuan gently stepped forward, his entire body seemingly entering an invisible void, transforming instantaneously into purple light.
Then he completely disappeared, leaving only a faint swirling of air behind, as if proving that Lu Xuan had just stood there moments ago.
This exceedingly bizarre scene left the few Profound Bird Guards staring at each other in disbelief, their eyes full of shock.
Before they could gather their thoughts, a vague and ethereal voice echoed around the courtyard, as if it came from the heavens and earth.
"The ghostly things here have been dealt with by me, the Director!"
??????
"Did you hear that?"
The Qingxi Prefecture Envoy was taken aback, pondering what he had just heard.
Director?
"Certainly, Envoy, that man said something just now."
"He said he dealt with the ghostly things here and referred to himself as the Director."
"Envoy, this Director... might be a bit too..."
The responding Profound Bird Guard of Qingxi Prefecture didn’t finish his sentence, but everyone present understood his meaning.
Isn’t this a bit too ridiculous, to encounter a ’wild’ Director right in Qingxi Prefecture’s city?
What in the world!
Ming State!
Feihua Prefecture, where the entrance of the city was ravaged and littered with corpses.
Large patches of dried blood remained on the ground, black and red intertwined, resembling an Asura Hell.
Hundreds of men in pristine white robes stood there, their eyes emitting eerie white light, and gripping in their hands sharp blades.
The chilling gleam of the blades reflected in their vacant yet crazed eyes.
