You have to understand—Hu Biao had swung his blade at the Snake Demon with all his strength.

But he hadn't even broken the Snake Demon's skin.

It had only left a faint mark on the surface of the Snake Demon's hide.

From this, you could see just how absurd the Snake Demon's defenses were.

The Snake Demon's leg defenses were somewhat lower, but even so—was that something a Body Tempering Triple Layer like Lin Feng could just shoot to pieces?!

And yet, the result was exactly that ridiculous...

Lin Feng followed up with a continuous volley of arrows, blowing both of the Snake Demon's legs apart.

Then, he aimed for the Snake Demon's eyes.

In the pitch-black night where you could barely see your hand in front of your face, Lin Feng stood over a hundred paces away, and every single arrow struck the Snake Demon's eyes with pinpoint accuracy.

Watching all of this unfold.

Hu Biao was completely dumbfounded.

Lin Feng's archery had already reached such a terrifying level.

None of the Squad Leaders in the Demon Suppression Division could compare to Lin Feng!

When Lin Feng walked over, Hu Biao looked at him with awe and reverence.

He was a Squad Leader, higher in rank than Lin Feng, but the Demon Suppression Division didn't care about titles—it cared about strength!

And Lin Feng was a young genius who had slain a Second-Order Demon!

"Squad Leader, are you alright?" Lin Feng asked.

Hu Biao gave a bitter laugh. How could he possibly be alright after being viciously struck by a Second-Order Demon?

Several of his ribs were broken, and his internal organs felt like they were cracked.

After being hit by that Snake Demon, Hu Biao had coughed up several mouthfuls of blood.

Of course, though his injuries were severe, they weren't fatal.

"I'm fine, nothing major!"

Hu Biao said, "When I sensed that Snake Demon was a Second-Order Demon, I thought for sure I was dead."

"That the entire squad would be wiped out!"

"Thankfully, you turned out to be this strong!"

"I survived this time because of you. I owe you my life."

There was a strange tone in Hu Biao's voice.

Because Lin Feng's cultivation level was so low, Hu Biao hadn't paid him any attention at all.

What was there to care about in a mere Body Tempering Triple Layer?

When the fighting started, he'd be lucky if Lin Feng didn't hold them back.

Who would have thought Lin Feng would shock everyone and directly shoot down a Second-Order Demon!

Lin Feng helped Hu Biao up and said, "Killing demons is every Demon Suppression Guard's duty. I only did what I was supposed to do."

Strong in strength, yet so humble.

This person's future was bound to be extraordinary! Hu Biao thought to himself.

Next, the two of them turned to look at the other four Demon Suppression Guards and went over to check on them.

After inspecting them, Hu Biao let out a soft sigh.

All four were dead!

Well, that made sense. That Snake Demon was a Second-Order Demon after all, and these men were only at Body Tempering Fourth Level.

Struck by the Snake Demon, there was naturally no chance they'd survive.

But what lingered on the faces of the four dead men wasn't fear.

It was shock, as if they had witnessed something unbelievable.

Thinking about it a little, they must have seen Lin Feng's arrows in their final moments.

After all, they were a whole realm higher than Lin Feng, yet they were like toys in the Snake Demon's grasp.

But Lin Feng could blow the Snake Demon's legs apart with a single arrow—what kind of ability was that?

Hu Biao sighed again. "We'll leave their bodies here. We just need to carry the Snake Demon's corpse back."

"Once we're back, we'll notify the Demon Suppression Division to send people to handle the rest."

Lin Feng nodded.

Then, he and Hu Biao walked together to the Snake Demon's body.

Looking at it up close, the Snake Demon's eye sockets were filled with arrows, and its head had been pierced clean through!

The sight was brutal. Even Hu Biao couldn't help but suck in a sharp breath.

Rarely had anyone seen a demon die so miserably!

At that moment, Hu Biao's gaze suddenly fixed on the Snake Demon's swollen belly, and he let out a surprised grunt.

If you find this book enjoyable, to avoid losing track next time, please remember to add it to your bookshelf.

Then, Hu Biao was seen gripping his large blade, its tip gently slicing across the Snake Demon's abdomen.

The Snake Demon was already dead, its defenses extremely low, so it didn't take much effort to cut it open.

Once the abdomen was opened, many large snake eggs were visible inside.

Each was about the size of two fists combined.

Seeing this, Hu Biao suddenly understood!

No wonder!

No wonder this Snake Demon had used poison to kill those villagers.

Although this Snake Demon was a Second-Order Demon, its condition was extremely poor, after all, it was pregnant.

Having slaughtered so many people in succession, the Snake Demon's consumption would only be greater, so it hadn't done that.

Lin Feng, standing nearby, also saw it, a thoughtful glint flashing in his eyes.

It seemed that being able to shoot down a Second-Order Demon so easily was also due to a certain advantage.

If this Snake Demon had been in its prime, it probably wouldn't have been so easy!

After all, it was on par with a Houtian Realm expert...

Fortunately, the Snake Demon was pregnant and not at its peak.

Coupled with the fact that it had let its guard down at the time, Lin Feng had easily shot it dead.

Of course, that was based on Lin Feng's previous strength.

Now, Lin Feng's archery and cultivation had both advanced, his strength elevated by more than one tier.

Even without a sneak attack, he had great confidence in shooting it down.

Lin Feng and Hu Biao hoisted the Snake Demon's massive corpse onto their shoulders, then swiftly made their way toward Wancheng City through the night.

Wancheng City, at the main gate of the Demon Suppression Division.

Though it was night, the Demon Suppression Division was brightly lit.

Captain Chen stood with his hands behind his back at the entrance, his gaze like lightning sweeping through the darkness.

Beside him stood Lu Gang.

Lu Gang calculated the time, a cold sneer forming in his heart.

"By my reckoning, that brat should have already encountered the Second-Order Demon by now!" Lu Gang thought to himself.

The reason the intelligence on the Snake Demon had been wrong was precisely because he had been meddling behind the scenes.

Of course, Lu Gang wasn't doing this solely to target Lin Feng.

Since Lin Feng's team had a full six members, if they all died, six slots would open up!

A glint of greed flashed in Lu Gang's eyes.

Six slots—how many cultivation resources could they exchange for?

He could take another step forward in the Houtian Realm.

"Hmph, kid, I gave you a chance to live, but you didn't cherish it!"

"Just asking for death, like your deadbeat father!"

Lu Gang sneered inwardly. In his mind, Lin Feng had already become food in the demon's belly, so he quickly stopped thinking about him.

He began calculating how to manipulate the vacant slots in the Demon Suppression Division next.

Just then.

On the distant road, figures suddenly flashed past.

Captain Chen's gaze sharpened, staring into the distance, seemingly able to see very far.

Before long, a group of six people arrived, carrying a Pig Demon on their shoulders.

Leading them was Squad Leader Li, at the Body Tempering Ninth Layer.

He was considered the strongest among the squad leaders this time.

"Captain Chen."

Squad Leader Li walked over and said respectfully, "Mission accomplished! This time, all five newcomers are safe and sound!"

Captain Chen's eyes showed approval.

For newcomers to carry out a demon-hunting mission, the mortality rate was extremely high.

In fact, it was as high as ninety percent!

But this time, not a single person in Squad Leader Li's team had fallen.

The mission had been executed quite well.

"This First-Order Boar Demon—who killed it?" Captain Chen said with a smile.

Squad Leader Li nodded, a flicker of pride flashing in his eyes, and replied, "Reporting to you, sir, it was This Humble One who killed it alone."

"Good, very impressive." Captain Chen said. "To be able to slay a First-Order Demon single-handedly—your strength has improved greatly!"
