Humbled

Several figures had already surrounded Qin Yan, their eyes filled with hostility, ready to give the order at any moment.

These people could act at any time.

Not only that, a large group of people also filed out of the Ten Thousand Weapons Manor.

"Who dares to cause trouble at my Ten Thousand Weapons Manor!"

The leader, a tall man dressed in fine clothes, had a hint of anger on his face.

"Third Master!"

The men surrounding Qin Yan immediately greeted the newcomer respectfully.

"This kid is in big trouble for daring to cause trouble at the Ten Thousand Weapons Manor."

The onlookers whispered amongst themselves, watching the scene with great interest.

"Please calm down, Third Master Ou, I am Wang Gui, an inspector from the Imperial City Bureau. We are here to apprehend a notorious bandit."

I apologize for any inconvenience caused, Third Master Ou!

Seeing that the situation was not going well, Wang Gui quickly ran out to explain.

"So they were just lackeys of the imperial court."

Wang Gui's words immediately put the surrounding group on guard, and hostile gazes were immediately directed at Qin Yan and the others.

Having his identity exposed in public, Wang Gui felt like he was being pricked by thorns, especially the gazes from these martial arts practitioners, which made him quite uncomfortable.

But now he has to step forward to prevent the situation from spiraling out of control.

Upon hearing this, Third Master Ou frowned immediately.

He also knew that Ten Thousand Weapons Manor often attracted martial arts practitioners who were nominally affiliated with the imperial court.

To oppose the imperial court would be neither wise nor foolish!

Despite their dissatisfaction, they could only suppress it.

"I see. You should have told us beforehand if you were going to arrest someone, to avoid any misunderstandings."

Then, Third Master Ou looked at Qin Yan and said, "Your methods are far too ruthless. Ten Thousand Weapons Manor does not wish to see bloodshed here."

"It's none of your business to interfere in my affairs, Qin Yan's business."

Qin Yan was quite displeased with the tone of this Third Master Ou; how dare he reprimand him!

"You...!"

Upon hearing this, Third Master Ou's expression immediately changed, and a flash of anger appeared on his face.

It was about to erupt.

The manager who came over changed his expression and quickly grabbed Third Master Ou.

"Third Master, this man is probably Qin Yan, the one the Old Master mentioned. Don't offend him!"

Ma Futong naturally noticed that Qin Yan was a bit angry!

She immediately came out with a beaming smile.

He clasped his hands slightly in a fist and palm salute.

"Third Master Ou, this is Lord Qin Yan, the Demon-Suppressing Bureau Commandant Inspector!"

"What!"

Third Master Ou clearly didn't know that Qin Yan had been promoted, but he certainly did know about the Demon-Suppressing Bureau.

A group of truly ruthless individuals, and extremely protective of their own.

Compared to a mere inspector of the Imperial City Bureau, Qin Yan's position was immeasurably higher.

Principal Sixth Rank military officer is among the most elite in the entire Youshan Prefecture.

Very few people can overpower them.

Especially the Demon-Suppressing Bureau, a particularly violent department.

Such a young Principal Sixth Rank.

A storm raged in Third Master Ou's heart; the other party was probably a key figure being groomed by the Demon-Suppressing Bureau.

Ten Thousand Weapons Manor can stand up to some minor officials.

However, Qin Yan's official position was definitely not low in the entire Youshan Prefecture; he was a core member of the Youshan Prefecture Demon-Suppressing Bureau Division.

Promotion to the rank of an official in the Demon-Suppressing Bureau is not something that can be done easily.

First, one must have outstanding achievements; second, one must possess exceptional abilities.

The Commandant Patrol Envoy can be considered among the top combat forces in a prefecture.

Those qualified for this position must be at least at the peak of the Qi Origin Realm, or even a Xiantian martial artist.

Moreover, the Demon-Suppressing Bureau is standing behind the other party; all they need to do is give a greeting.

He Ten Thousand Weapons Manor forget about staying in Youshan Prefecture!

Thoughts flashed through my mind like lightning.

Third Master Ou's expression changed continuously, and his imposing manner instantly diminished. He said in a low voice, "This humble one misspoke just now."

Please, sir, do not hold a grudge against such a petty person.

Wow!

These words immediately caused many people to gasp in surprise.

"Third Master Ou actually backed down? Is that Demon-Suppressing Bureau really that powerful?"

"That bumpkin is from the Demon-Suppressing Bureau!"

Someone with extensive experience in the martial arts world immediately explained, "The Demon-Suppressing Bureau was established to slay demons and eliminate evil spirits."

To become Demon Suppression Commandant, even the weakest among them is at the Marrow-Washing Realm.

The one in front of us is even more extraordinary; Principal Sixth Rank martial artist, and even the weakest among them is at the peak of the Qi Origin Realm.

They would all be formidable heroes in the martial arts world.

These are the kinds of people who risked their lives to get where they are.

Compared to those other corrupt officials, the Demon-Suppressing Bureau can be considered truly righteous officials who rid the people of evil!

Although the imperial court and the martial arts world are at odds, the Demon-Suppressing Bureau has a very good reputation in the martial arts world.

They charged into battle on the front lines, slaying demons and monsters.

To safeguard the safety of all people under heaven.

They're all ruthless among ruthless people; there's nothing to criticize them for.

Do demons really exist in this world?

"Of course I have! I saw a ghost a few days ago, and it was instantly killed by the Demon-Suppressing Bureau!"

It's best if the people from the Demon-Suppressing Bureau don't go.

Someone whispered an explanation to their companion.

For a moment, the way everyone looked at Qin Yan changed slightly.

A mixture of vigilance and admiration.

Especially considering Qin Yan's visibly youthful face, although he was tall, he shouldn't be very old.

"Lord Qin, the old master has already given instructions that as soon as you arrive, he will take you to him immediately."

The steward spoke very respectfully, trying to help Third Master Ou out of his predicament.

"Please, Lord Qin!"

"Um!"

Qin Yan nodded slightly and instructed Wang Gui, "I'll leave it to you."

"Rest assured, Lord Qin!"

Wang Gui glanced at An Wuxia, who looked like a dead dog, and said with a forced smile.

They immediately subdued An Wuxia and tied him up with their companions!

Let's go!

Qin Yan and Ma Futong followed the steward into the Ten Thousand Weapons Manor.

Third Master Ou also felt humiliated and followed behind with a sullen face.

Behind the Ten Thousand Weapons Manor lies a vast area of casting workshops!

"Lord Qin, you were truly impressive just now. An Wuxia, such a powerful expert at the peak of the Qi Origin Realm, was crippled by you in just a few moves."

Ma Futong Qin Yan was powerful, but he never expected him to be this powerful.

However, these words instantly caused a drastic change in the expressions of Third Master Ou and the others.

The person who was crippled by the opponent was a master at the peak of the Qi Origin Realm.

Thinking about this, Third Master Ou felt a chill run down his spine. He really didn't dare to fight; what would have become of him?

"The people of the Demon-Suppressing Bureau are a bunch of monsters."

Third Master Ou cursed inwardly.

Soon the group arrived in front of a robust old man.

With graying hair, a bare upper body, and bulging muscles, it's hard to imagine that this old man is over a hundred years old.

His eyes were bright and piercing, and the aura he exuded was nothing like that of a centenarian.

He looks more like a middle-aged person in their forties or fifties!

Beside him were two burly men of similar stature, who bore a resemblance to him.

The three of them were working together to forge a weapon, and with each strike, a ripple would spread across the weapon.

The sound was deafening; an ordinary person would probably feel dizzy in that environment.

"Old Master, Grandfather, Second Master!"

The steward greeted him respectfully and then told Old Manor Lord Ou what had just happened.

A moment of silence!

With an apologetic expression, Qin Yan clasped his hands in a fist and said, "My son was rude; please forgive him, Lord Qin."

Ignorance is no excuse.

Qin Yan naturally wouldn't dwell on this matter too much.

"I have come to have a bow forged, as you surely know, sir."

"Haha, that's natural."

Old Master Ou stroked his beard. "Lord Qin is a promising young man, having become Commandant Patrol Envoy at such a young age."

I wonder what materials Lord Qin has brought!

Qin Yan didn't delay and took out the materials he carried with him.

[Ink Gold][Fish Demon's Tendon][Fish Demon's Teeth]

See these three items!

A glint of gold flashed in Old Master Ou's eyes as he stared intently at the two items on the fish demon's body.

Especially that crystal-clear fish tendon.

"It seems to be from a monster that was recently killed! If I'm not mistaken, it should be the spine and tendons of a Grandmaster- level monster!"

No wonder Lord Zhao came to ask me for help.

Grandpa Ou's face lit up with surprise, and he couldn't help but feel a little itchy to show off his skills.
