Demons and Ghosts!

Ordinary first-rate martial artists would be extremely weak in front of Su Jie. The difference between him and a Blood Qi Realm martial artist was just that his blood and qi had not transformed. However, in terms of combat strength, he felt that he could also fight one against a hundred! He was super first-rate!

“I have to think of a way to obtain a Qi and blood cultivation technique but there’s no need to be anxious now. I still have room for improvement. Only by laying a solid foundation can I improve quickly in the future.”

Su Jie thought about his future plans.

The Blood Qi realm was a realm that one reached after cultivating Qi and blood enough such that they transformed. There needed to be a corresponding technique. Su Jie did not have a Blood Qi realm cultivation technique.

However, Su Jie was not in a hurry. He has just reached the third level of the Body Hardening Technique and needed to reach the perfected third level for it. In addition, he wanted to try to break through the limits of his body and cultivate the Ape Demon King Kong Fist to a higher level!

“I’ll go to Heiye City in a few days. They should be suppressing bandits again.”

Su Jie wiped his sweat and decided to rest for a while.

Su Jie took a shower and was surprised to hear a conversation happening at the entrance of the Su residence. “Someone came to visit the Su residence?”

Curious, Su Jie came to the door.

At the door, a man dressed as a constable was talking to Liu Fu, the butler.

“Constable Li, my master is not at home. He might not be back for a while,” Liu Fu said politely to the man dressed as a constable.

“I’ll pay you a visit some other time, then,” the man called Constable Lee said with some regret.

Constable Li was called Li Yue. He was the constable of Qingshui Town’s government offices. Su Wu had once worked in Qingshui Town, so he was good friends with Li Yue. Today, he came to look for Su Wu, as if he had something to ask of him.

Su Jie walked over and asked: “Uncle Li, why are you looking for my father?”

Li Yue looked at Su Jie when he heard this. A hint of surprise flashed across his eyes. Su Jie, who was not even 15 years old then, was handsome, tall and talented. Li Yue secretly sighed at how equally talented the father and son were.

Li Yue calmed himself down and looked at Su Jie before replying: “Recently, something happened near Qingshui Town… Several mutilated corpses were found near Nan Nong Bo. It’s as if they were swallowed and bitten by wild beasts but it doesn’t seem like it… Some of the corpses’ heads were torn off alive. It’s not something that wild beasts can do. Our government office is investigating and looking for the murderer. To be safe, don’t go out for the time being.”

Li Yue explained the situation and warned Su Jie.

Nan Nong Bo was only about five kilometers away from Qingshui Town. Recently, a pedestrian was attacked near it and died miserably. It was unknown if the murderer was a beast or a human. Qingshui Town’s government office undoubtedly attached great importance to this.

That was why Li Yue came to look for Su Wu. He hoped that Su Wu could help investigate and resolve this matter altogether. However, Su Wu was a member of the Divine Constable Bureau and was out all year round so he was not at home. Li Yue’s efforts were futile.

“I’ll leave first.” Li Yue said to Su Jie. He was busy.

“Suspected beast… but it doesn’t look like the work of a beast?”

Su Jie looked at Li Yue’s back as he left. He was rather curious about who the murderer was.

“I have nothing to do anyway. Let’s go to Nan Nong Bo and see if we can resolve this matter.”

Su Jie thought for a while and finally made a decision.

Nan Nong Bo was too close to Qingshui Town, Su Jie’s hometown. It was fine if he did not know about it but now that it was threatened, Su Jie did not intend to stand by and do nothing.

He would get rid of whichever beast was doing evil at Nan Nong Bo!

After dinner, Su Jie headed for Nan Nong Bo alone.

When he arrived at the place, the sky was darkening. Nan Nong Bo was neither a big nor a small place. Some abandoned fields had long been overgrown with weeds.

The sound of insects and birds could be heard, making it seem exceptionally desolate.

Su Jie walked around the place to look for any beasts that might be there. However, after one round of searching, he found nothing while the sky had turned completely dark.

“Could it be that the beast that killed so many has already left?”

Su Jie frowned. The murderer was suspected to be a beast. It was possible that it had already left.

RUMBLE!

Su Jie prepared to leave but thunder and rain began to dominate the sky.

“I should seek shelter at the deserted temple nearby.”

Helpless, Su Jie decided to take shelter from the rain.

There was a temple near the place. Like Nan Nong Bo, this temple has been abandoned for many years and was long overgrown with weed. The plaque at the door of the temple was covered by weeds.

The temple was not large. Su Jie hurried into the temple hall.

“Someone’s here!”

The moment he stepped into the hall, Su Jie was immediately alarmed.

In the hall, there were already three people who had arrived first!

Two of them were men in their thirties. They were visibly strong and wore martial arts clothes with weapons at their waists. They looked similar and should be brothers.

The other person was a young man about the same age as Su Jie. This young man was dressed in plain white clothes. His long hair was tied into a ponytail, and he had red lips and white teeth. He was extremely handsome. Although his clothes suggested that he was not a man of luxury, there was still an unconcealable elegance in his movements. He was definitely rich and noble.

These three people were starting a fire. They were probably also people who had come to take shelter in the dilapidated temple.

The moment Su Jie stepped into the temple, all three of them noticed him. The handsome young man in white looked at him curiously for a moment or two before looking away. The other two looked wary but none of them said anything.

“That young man in white is either rich or noble… The other two have sharp eyes and strong figures. They’re most likely martial art experts. I wonder who they are.”

Su Jie was slightly curious about the origins of these three people but the three of them had no intention of talking to Su Jie. Therefore, Su Jie did not bother them and sat down in another corner of the hall.

RUMBLE!

The two sides were at peace. The rain outside the temple was getting heavier, accompanied by rolling thunder. The light inside the temple was also extremely dim and exceptionally quiet.

After more than an hour, the sky became darker.

The young man in white, who was quietly leaning against the wall with his eyes closed suddenly opened his eyes. He seemed to have sensed something and said in a low voice: “Let’s go!”

The young man in white stood up and headed out of the temple.

The two men who looked like his guards looked at each other before rising and following without hesitation. The three of them ignored the downpour and disappeared into the rainy night.

“What are they doing all of a sudden?”

Su Jie was puzzled when he saw this.

Now that it was raining heavily outside, the young man in white seemed to have sensed something and left regardless of the rain.

Although curious, Su Jie did not probe into other people’s affairs. He rested quietly and waited for the rain to stop.

At that moment, the white-clothed youth and the other two were speeding in the rain.

The older of the two men said to the young man in white with a solemn expression: “Young Master Bai, could it be that… you’ve discovered the traces of that demon?”

The young man in white nodded. “That’s right. I just sensed its aura. Uncle Zhang Xue, Uncle Zhang Wen, be careful. I’m afraid this thing has some cultivation.”

There was both wariness and excitement in the eyes of the two men called Zhang Xue and Zhang Wen.

Most people would not be able to see demons or ghosts in their entire lives. Zhang Xue and Zhang Wen were both martial arts experts. They both wanted to see what abilities this so-called demon had!
