The next day, the news that the Skin-Peeling Demon was killed in an instant by "King Yama Lin" spread throughout the Demon Suppression Division once again.

This time, no one was shocked anymore.

Everyone was numb.

In their eyes, it seemed there was nothing in this world that King Yama Lin couldn't solve with one saber strike.

If there was, then it would take two.

And Lin Feng, as he wished, received the generous reward for the four-star mission.

Twenty thousand Merit Points!

This made his wallet full again.

At the same time, Ling Yue'er, the beloved daughter of the City Lord's Mansion, officially launched her grand "Chasing King Yama Lin" plan.

She mobilized almost the entire power of the City Lord's Mansion to launch a 360-degree "sweet offensive" against Lin Feng.

In the morning, as soon as Lin Feng opened his door, there would inevitably be a table of spiritual energy breakfast, meticulously prepared by the City Lord's Mansion's head chef and worth a thousand gold.

At noon, when Lin Feng accepted missions at the Mission Hall, Ling Yue'er would be like a personal maid, serving tea, pouring water, and massaging his shoulders and legs.

In the evening, when Lin Feng returned to his courtyard to rest, Ling Yue'er would bring a small stool and sit by his door, ostensibly "guarding Brother Lin," but in reality, resting her chin on her hand and daydreaming.

This spectacle caused chaos throughout the Demon Suppression Division, with everyone casting sideways glances.

Everyone looked at Lin Feng with envy, jealousy, and hatred, wishing they could take his place.

She was the daughter of the City Lord's Mansion!

The number one beauty in Nan Yan Commandery!

Marrying her would mean they could lie flat for the rest of their lives and reach the pinnacle of life!

However, faced with this "happiness" that would drive any man crazy, Lin Feng's own reaction was...

"Annoying."

He felt a headache coming on.

He didn't need these things.

What he needed were demons!

Bandits!

Those "little cuties" that he could hack for experience!

Not a "burden" who pestered him all day, chattering incessantly and affecting his monster-slaying efficiency!

Finally, after Ling Yue'er's harassment for three consecutive days, Lin Feng could no longer stand it.

On this day, when Ling Yue'er once again presented him with a bouquet of "Nine Revolutions Soul Returning Flowers," said to be harvested from the depths of the Myriad Demon Mountain Range and capable of reviving the dead and regenerating flesh and bone.

Lin Feng looked at her expressionlessly and said calmly:

"Miss Ling, please, don't bother me anymore in the future."

"Ah? Why?"

The smile on Ling Yue'er's face froze, and she said aggrievedly, "Brother Lin, do you dislike me?"

"I just feel we're not compatible."

"Where are we not compatible? I can change!"

"You're too noisy."

"I can be quiet!"

"You're too weak."

"I... I..."

Ling Yue'er was choked speechless by this knockout statement, her eyes reddened, and tears began to well up again.

"I... I can become stronger! Brother Lin, will you teach me how to cultivate? As long as I can stay by your side, I'll do anything you want!"

Looking at her pitiful appearance, Lin Feng's heart remained unmoved, he even felt like laughing.

He shook his head and uttered a "straight-as-a-rod man" quote that would go down in history.

"Sorry, I'm not interested in women."

"I'm only interested in... killing monsters."

Lin Feng's earth-shattering "straight-as-a-rod man declaration" was like dropping a depth charge into a calm lake, instantly causing a huge uproar throughout the entire Demon Suppression Division.

"Holy crap! What did I just hear? King Yama Lin said he's not interested in women?!"

"He's only interested in killing monsters? My god, what a pure and unconventional reason! Is that something a human would say?"

"No wonder he's so strong! So he spent all his time flirting on monster-slaying! A role model for us! A role model!"

"Wuwuwu... My heart is broken! I thought Lord Lin was aloof and proud, but I didn't expect him to... to be single by his own strength!"

All the Demon Slayers, men and women alike, were plunged into deep shock.

Ling Yue'er, the person directly involved, was completely frozen in place.

She stared blankly at Lin Feng, her mind a complete blank.

Not interested in women?

Only interested in killing monsters?

What... what kind of outrageous words were those?

In her entire life, this was the first time someone had rejected her for such a reason!

And she... couldn't find any reason to refute it!

Because what he said was the truth!

Looking at Lin Feng's cold face, which was filled with the words "Don't touch me, I'm working," Ling Yue'er's grievances and unwillingness instantly turned into... an unprecedented, intense desire to win!

"Good! Good for you, Lin Feng!"

Ling Yue'er wiped away her tears. Instead of being discouraged, she clenched her small fists with renewed fighting spirit.

"You just think I'm weak, you think I'm noisy, you think I can't help you kill monsters, right?!"

"I'm putting it out there today! From this day forward, I will go into seclusion! I will cultivate! I will become stronger!"

"When I emerge from seclusion, I will definitely become even better at killing monsters than you! By then, I'll see what excuse you have to refuse me!"

With that, she picked up the flower from the ground and turned to leave without looking back. Her fiery departure had a hint of tragic heroism.

The grand drama of a chase was thus brought to a temporary close in such an unexpected manner.

Lin Feng finally got some peace.

He walked back into the Armory.

It was the same old man with the goatee. Seeing Lin Feng this time, his eyes held not only reverence but also a hint of... pity.

"Lord Lin, you're here again?"

"Yes, I'm here to exchange for a cultivation technique."

Lin Feng handed over his token and merit voucher.

"Sigh..."

The old man sighed, processing the transaction while speaking in a complex tone:

"The path of martial arts is indeed important. But romance is also a scenery of life. The City Lord's daughter has looks, background, and is devoted to you. Why must you..."

Lin Feng calmly interrupted, "Before I can kill an Immortal on Land with a single strike, pursuing romance is a waste of time."

The old man with the goatee: "..."

He felt like his entire life had been lived for nothing.

Lin Feng couldn't be bothered with this meddlesome old man and walked straight to the third floor of the Armory.

This time, his target was clear.

A cultivation technique more advanced than the Blazing Heaven Sun Art!

Above the True Qi Realm is the Dan Yuan Realm.

And to condense Dan Yuan, a powerful cultivation technique is an indispensable foundation.

Soon, on the topmost layer of the solitary black bookshelf, he found an ancient manual sealed in a purple jade box, emitting an aura of extreme yang and hardness.

Four large characters were written on the cover of the manual in a bold, flowing script.

Nine Yang Limitless Art!

An advanced version of the Blazing Heaven Sun Art.

This cultivation technique is the ultimate embodiment of the pure yang path. Practitioners must possess an extremely yang body.

Upon reaching great mastery, one can condense Nine Yang Dan Yuan, capable of burning mountains and boiling seas with boundless power!

Exchange Price: 20,000 Merit Points.

"This is it!"

A scorching light flashed in Lin Feng's eyes, and he completed the exchange without hesitation.

With the cultivation technique in hand, the next step was to cultivate.

But cultivation requires time, and the fastest way to increase strength is still...

Grinding monsters.

He turned his gaze back to the Mission Hall.

However, to his disappointment, after his "crazy harvesting" in the past period, the high-star missions in the Mission Hall had been almost completely cleared out by him.

The rest were one-star missions like finding lost cats and dogs or investigating neighborhood disputes, offering pitifully few Merit Points.

Lin Feng pondered whether he should go out and look around himself.

Just then, a familiar voice boomed in his mind!

"Master! Master! Your humble servant has returned!!"

RUMBLE!

Before the voice even finished, outside the Demon Suppression Division, a yellow wind howled, obscuring the sky and sun!

A powerful, suffocating, terrifying demonic aura descended like a storm without warning!

The demonic aura was so dense that it caused the clouds and sky to change color and the world to fall silent!

The entire Demon Suppression Division instantly sounded the highest-level alarm!

"Enemy attack! A Great Demon is attacking!"

Countless Demon Slayers rushed out from their residences, ready for battle, their faces filled with shock and solemnity.

Even the Chief Steward was alarmed. With a flicker of his body, he appeared above the courtyard, gazing with a grave expression towards the source of the overwhelming yellow wind.

Such power meant the arrival was not friendly!

Lin Feng, upon hearing the voice, was first stunned, then a strange smile spread across his face.

In the center of the sky-filling yellow wind, a beam of light descended at a speed comparable to lightning, landing precisely in front of Lin Feng.

The arrogant and overbearing demonic aura that arrived so quickly also vanished just as fast, dissipating instantly as the beam of light touched the ground.

As the light faded, it revealed...

A weasel standing on its hind legs, wearing a tattered Taoist robe that was clearly too big, with shifty eyes, bowing and scraping, its face plastered with a fawning smile.

It still had that sharp-mouthed, monkey-faced appearance, but its entire demeanor had undergone a complete transformation.

Its pair of small, bean-like eyes now shone with brilliance, sharp and clear.

The terrifying pressure of a peak Third-tier Great Demon that emanated from its body had been restrained, but it still caused the surrounding air to freeze.

It was Huang Fugui, returned from his seclusion!

The incredibly arrogant entrance he had just made stood in stark contrast to the lewd and fawning image before them.

It looked at Lin Feng, its eyes welling up with tears of excitement. It immediately prostrated itself, bowing with its head touching the ground.

"Your unworthy descendant, Huang Fugui, pays respects to the Ancestor! May the Ancestor enjoy eternal fortune and live as long as the heavens!"

The people of the Demon Suppression Division: "..."
