Chapter 23
Beheading Eighth-Grade Magical Core
“Lin Wudao is out!”
Li Bingtian and the others had been waiting outside Prince Li Yang’s mansion for a long time.
When they saw him walking out, their spirits were instantly lifted. Each of them sized him up before their eyes fell on the person behind Lin Wudao.
They saw Lin Wudao dragging an iron chain with a few people tied to it.
They looked highly miserable!
“Hiss!”
“He caught the Netherworld Devil Sect’s remnants from Prince Li Yang’s mansion.”
Li Bingtian, Yan Shaoqing, and the others were all shocked.
Conversely, Chen Taiji’s face was gloomy, and his gaze toward Lin Wudao was filled with intense resentment and dissatisfaction.
“Brother Lin, did Prince Li Yang not give you any trouble?”
“That’s right!”
“He was very understanding and cooperative with my work,” Lin Wudao said indifferently.
What?
Prince Li Yang cooperated with him? Was he that easy-going?
Li Bingtian and the others had strange looks on their faces.
They had previously interacted with Prince Li Yang and did not think this royal relative of the Li Dynasty was so easy to approach.
However, since Lin Wudao had captured the remaining members of the Netherworld Devil Sect, and it seemed that he did not have a bad relationship with Prince Li Yang, they had nothing more to comment on.
However, when Li Bingtian and the others looked at Leng Qingyue, their eyes widened in disbelief.
“Brother Lin, this…!”
Yan Shaoqing pointed at Leng Qingyue.
This was Princess Li Yang!
Why did Lin Wudao tie her up?
Prince Li Yang granted that?
They felt that their understanding had been subverted like never before.
“She’s Princess Li Yang, Leng Qingyue!”
“However, she has been consumed by a demon.”
What?
Was Leng Qingyue a demon?
Hearing this, Li Bingtian and the others’ faces significantly changed!
As members of the Demon Subduing Division, they were naturally very clear about demons. They were terrifying monsters that fed on living creatures. All were very strange.
Even cultivators would have to spend a lot of effort suppressing them.
What shocked them was Lin Wudao had just arrived at the Demon Subduing Division and had encountered a demon. Furthermore, it was from Prince Li Yang’s residence, right under the nose of the Demon Subduing Division.
Thinking of this, Li Bingtian and the others suddenly felt a sense of fear.
“It’s a blessing in disguise!”
“It’s good that Brother Lin went to Prince Li Yang’s residence and found this demon. If he didn’t, who knows what kind of disaster she would cause to Tianyuan Ancient City.”
“At that time, I’m afraid that my Demon Subduing Division won’t escape the blame,” Li Bingtian said gratefully.
Yan Shaoqing and the others nodded heavily!
“That’s right. Thanks to Brother Lin. Otherwise, we’d be in big trouble.”
“We must credit Brother Lin!”
“Yes, that’s for sure. When the Governor comes out of seclusion, we will jointly submit a memorial to the capital. At that time, our Yuan State’s Demon Subduing Division will also get a share of the glory.”
“Governor, you have sharp eyes. Brother Lin is truly a genius!”
…
The three Deputy Governors praised him one after another.
Everyone had broad smiles on their faces.
Only Chen Taiji’s face is gloomy.
“Governor Chen, you don’t seem to be happy?”
Lin Wudao glanced at him indifferently.
“What? How could I?”
“I haven’t recovered from the shock of the demon,” Chen Taiji responded awkwardly.
In his heart, his hatred for Lin Wudao grew even more profound.
“Brother Lin, how do you plan to deal with this demon and the survivors of the Netherworld Devil Sect?”
“Execute them at the execution ground!”
He ignored the crowd’s reaction and pulled the chain toward the execution ground.
Li Bingtian and the others looked at each other and quickly followed.
…
Very quickly, they arrived at the execution ground again!
As Lin Wudao dragged the demons and the remaining evil spirits through the city, many were shocked, and they followed him to the execution ground.
A moment later, even Prince Li Yang, who had always lived in seclusion, arrived personally.
Looking at Leng Qingyue on the execution ground, someone exclaimed loudly, “Oh my God, Princess Li Yang is a demon? How is this possible?”
How could the Princess be a demon?
“Even Prince Li Yang is here. So it looks like it can’t be fake!”
“It’s fortunate that the Lord of the Demon Hunter Hall discovered this demonic devil. She would bring a disaster to Tianyuan Ancient City if she remained undiscovered.”
“Lord Lin’s courage and insight are indeed praiseworthy!”
“Although he is a little brutal, he seems truly capable…”
…
The crowd pointed at the demons and Netherworld Devil Sect survivors on the execution ground and discussed animatedly.
Then, Lin Wudao raised his hand, and everyone instantly fell silent.
“This demon has turned into Princess Li Yang and has stayed with Prince Li Yang. So far, it has already devoured 3564 living beings. Therefore, its sins are heinous.”
“She was about to kill Prince Li Yang. Fortunately, I arrived in time and suppressed the demon.”
“Demons ought to be killed!”
“The Demon Subduing Division is responsible for maintaining the world’s order and the human world’s peace. Therefore, today, we will publicly execute this demon as a warning to all the monsters in the world.”
His cold and emotionless voice resounded in all directions.
Lin Wudao walked towards Leng Qingyue with Xuanming Blade.
“Bah! Damn you, humans!”
“It’s obvious that Prince Li Yang is secretly feeding…”
Leng Qingyue roared. Her pair of scarlet eyes were filled with monstrous blood-red light.
She seemed to be planning to expose Prince Li Yang’s crime of raising demons, but Lin Wudao did not give her a chance.
Kacha!
The cold blade struck, and a head flew high into the air.
Boom!
With the death of his life force, the eight-armed demon was immediately revealed in front of everyone, shocking the surrounding crowd.
Princess Li Yang was indeed a demon!
Hiss!
Seeing this brutal and brutal scene, the four Netherworld Devil Sect survivors tied up by the iron chains were all scared out of their wits.
“Lord, please spare our lives! We are sorry!”
They frantically begged for mercy.
However, the only response they got was an ice-cold blade!
Slash!
An extremely sharp blade light streaked across, and the four were instantly beheaded.
“From now on, whoever dares to raise demons or collude with the Netherworld Devil Sect to harm the world will be the enemy of the Demon Subduing Division. I will kill them!”
“No matter his identity, the result will be the same.”
A brutal voice resounded.
Hearing this, Prince Li Yang trembled in fear, his heart filled with endless worry.
He knew that Lin Wudao was talking to him!
It was a warning to him!
“Master Lin, you have killed a demon and the remaining members of the Netherworld Devil Sect. In addition, you have brought peace and prosperity to Tianyuan Ancient City. Therefore, I will submit a memorial to the capital to credit you.”
“I will not spare demons aby mercy!” Prince Li Yang forcefully suppressed the fear in his heart and roared.
Then, he looked at Lin Wudao guiltily.
Lin Wudao did not pay much attention to him. Instead, he opened the heaven burial bronze coffin and put the bodies of Leng Qingyue and the others into it.
Then, with hands behind his back, he walked towards his Star Seizer Courtyard.
[ Ding dong! ]
A series of beeps sounded in his mind.
[ You’ve collected the corpse of demon Leng Qingyue, a rank seven demon, and obtained a rank seven magic pill. After being strengthened by the system ten times, you’ve obtained a rank eight magic pill! ]
[ You’ve taken care of Li Fentian’s corpse and obtained the Thunderbolt Sabre technique. After the system’s tenfold enhancement, you’ve obtained the Thunder Blade technique! ]
[ You’ve collected Mu Qingfeng’s corpse and received 10 medium-grade spiritual stones. After the system has strengthened it ten times, you have received 100 medium-grade spiritual stones! ]
…
[ Ding! Congratulations to the host for killing 10 masters of the Netherworld Devil Sect and maintaining the authority of the Demon Subduing Division. Fate Energy value +500! ]
[ Ding! Congratulations to the host for killing a rank seven demon. Fate Energy value +700! ]
[ Ding! Everyone in Tianyuan Ancient City respects you. Fate Energy +2000! ]
…
Lin Wudao’s lips curled into a satisfied smile as he listened to the notifications.
His efforts were not in vain, and he finally obtained a generous return.
Next, it’s time to go back and check on his harvest.
