Why Use an Ox-Cleaver to Kill a Chicken? Jiang Deyun's Confidence!

After hearing Captain Zhao's introduction, Jiang Deyun was slightly stunned.

He had thought Captain Zhao was about to give him some instruction.

He had not expected him to take out a bottle of Poison Mist.

The effects of this Poison Mist were formidable—it could make Martial Artists below the Houtian Sixth Layer lose their cultivation!

If he pulled off such a move in actual combat, Jiang Deyun could even kill opponents above his level.

But why use it on a Body Tempering Realm Martial Artist?

Although Captain Zhao had explained, Jiang Deyun still could not help saying, "Brother Zhao, isn't using this on that kid like using an ox-cleaver to kill a chicken?"

"If I bring my blade down on him, so what if his hard-body cultivation is powerful? How many blows can he withstand?"

Captain Zhao's gaze darkened.

What a reckless fool!

He said coldly, "Since we're going to kill that kid, naturally we must account for every possible accident!"

"Perhaps you don't know this, but after that kid took first place, he specifically exchanged for a second-rank suit of armor!"

"With second-rank armor and his incomparably powerful hard-body cultivation, how many slashes would it take for you to kill him?"

"And you need to know that many other Squad Leaders will be carrying out this mission alongside us!"

"Since we're killing Lin Feng, it has to be quick. We can't let anyone else notice, understand?!"

Captain Zhao explained patiently.

Yet inwardly, he felt that Jiang Deyun was far too stupid.

He actually dared to underestimate his enemy!

Captain Zhao never underestimated an enemy.

Even if the other party was merely a Body Tempering Realm Martial Artist.

In truth, Captain Zhao very much wanted to personally make a move and kill Lin Feng.

However, he had learned that Elder Han of the Scripture Pavilion seemed to think highly of Lin Feng.

If he made a move and left behind even the slightest trace for Elder Han to discover...

Things would likely become very troublesome!

To be safe, Captain Zhao had summoned Jiang Deyun to kill with a borrowed blade.

Jiang Deyun grumbled inwardly.

Someone as formidable as Captain Zhao actually considered so much?

He did not dare argue. Still, he strongly disagreed inwardly, feeling that killing Lin Feng was no more than a matter of two or three slashes.

Even if the other party had some unusual item on him, it would not be too difficult.

Captain Zhao said blandly, "I know your strength. Even without this Poison Mist, there is a ninety percent chance you can kill him."

"But to prevent any accidents, it is best to use this. Kill him cleanly and decisively, without leaving behind a single trace!"

With that, he handed the jade bottle to Jiang Deyun.

Jiang Deyun hurriedly accepted it and nodded. "Yes!"

The hatred in his heart for Lin Feng flared up once more.

Jiang Deyun was jealous by nature, and the knot in his heart had already become a dead knot. Unless he killed Lin Feng, he could not vent his resentment.

Now that he had learned he would be traveling with Lin Feng, it was the perfect chance to make a move and resolve that knot in his heart!

Of course, Jiang Deyun did not take the Poison Mist seriously.

He believed he could easily kill Lin Feng even without using it.

He would keep this thing—it could still serve as a trump card in the future.

Captain Zhao had already risen to his feet.

"Let's go. To the Training Ground!"

Inside a Squad Leader's courtyard.

Lin Feng opened the door and saw Lin Qingxue.

He explained to Lin Qingxue where he had been these past few days.

As well as what he was about to do.

Lin Qingxue nodded obediently.

As he looked at Lin Qingxue, a thought suddenly flashed through Lin Feng's mind.

In these chaotic times, only strength could ensure survival.

Once he grew a little stronger, perhaps he could try letting Lin Qingxue cultivate as well?

She needed enough strength to protect herself!

Just then.

A great deal of commotion rose outside Lin Feng's door.

He opened the door and looked outside.

Only to find a large crowd of Demon Suppression Guards staring at him eagerly.

Lin Feng understood at once.

These Demon Suppression Guards were the ones who had gifted him Body Tempering Pills before.

They wanted to join his squad and become his subordinates.

During his days in the Scripture Pavilion, these Demon Suppression Guards had been waiting anxiously.

Now that Lin Feng had returned, they all came knocking at once.

Lin Feng's gaze narrowed slightly.

Next, he would be heading out to encircle and suppress demons.

As a Squad Leader, he was allowed to bring his subordinates with him.

More people were better than going alone.

A glint flashed through Lin Feng's eyes as he began selecting them.

Before long, Lin Feng had chosen ten people to serve as his subordinates.

Among them was an acquaintance.

Hu Biao.

Hu Biao was not particularly strong, but he was seasoned and experienced, with a good temperament. Lin Feng still preferred recruiting people whose backgrounds he knew well.

The Demon Suppression Guards chosen to serve under Lin Feng were all overjoyed.

They felt that their futures were exceedingly bright!

As for those who had not been chosen, their expressions darkened.

After settling his squad, Lin Feng spoke and explained their upcoming mission.

Upon hearing that they were going to encircle and suppress a Second Order Mid-stage demon, quite a few Demon Suppression Guards' expressions changed slightly.

They had only just become Lin Feng's subordinates, and already they were going to face a Second Order Mid-stage demon?!

That level of strength was outrageously powerful.

With one careless mistake, Body Tempering Realm Martial Artists like them could lose their lives!

Not everyone possessed defense as terrifying as Lin Feng's.

But Demon Suppression Guards had always lived with death hovering over them.

The Demon Suppression Guards who had just joined could only adjust their mindsets and face the upcoming demon suppression mission.

Afterward.

Lin Feng directly led his men to the Demon Suppression Division's Training Ground.

Lin Feng did not appear flustered.

After all, even when he was still in the Body Tempering Realm, he had personally killed a Second Order early-stage demon!

Although there had been many reasons behind his killing that Second-Order Demon.

He had killed one in the end, so his fear of Second-Order Demons was far less than that of others.

And now, Lin Feng's strength had increased by more than a hundredfold!

Faced with a Second Order Mid-stage demon, he did not feel the slightest fear!

Demon Suppression Division, Training Ground.

Captain Zhao walked over slowly with his hands clasped behind his back.

At the center of the Training Ground, seven Squad Leaders stood silently.

Behind each of these Squad Leaders stood ten Demon Suppression Guards.

This time, more than seventy people would be taking part in the demon hunt—a considerable number indeed.

Captain Zhao arrived at a High Platform in the Training Ground and looked down below.

He spoke calmly. "This time, the demon you will be encircling and suppressing is very likely a Second Order Mid-stage demon!"

"This demon is brutal by nature. More than twenty children in the city have been abducted by it, and whether they are dead or alive remains unknown!"

"According to the Intelligence Division's investigation of the traces at the scene, aside from the Second Order Mid-stage demon, there should also be many First-Order lesser demons!"

Captain Zhao paused, a glint flashing through his eyes as he said, "In order to wipe out the demons in one sweep and prevent them from escaping, the demon suppression force will be divided into two groups this time!"

"One group, made up of the strongest and the weakest! The rest will form another group."

At those words, Lin Feng, standing among the crowd below, vaguely sensed a predatory gaze fixed on him.

He tilted his head slightly and saw Jiang Deyun looking his way.

At this moment, Captain Zhao said, "Jiang Deyun, form a team with Lin Feng! The other five Squad Leaders will form another team!"

At that, Lin Feng's eyes narrowed slightly.
