Chapter 169: Go into the mountains and kill the monster!

"A man in his twenties who is in the Skin Refining Realm is really a monster!"

Everyone couldn't help but marvel and wanted to know how Chu Liang practiced.

Chu Liang said: "You all already know my strength. I wonder if there is anything else?"

His words were calm and he seemed to be chasing away guests.

These people come uninvited, which is not exactly hospitality.

"Of course there is something."

Shi Fan smiled and said to Chu Liang: "Chu Liang, you have great talent and strength. Are you willing to join our Demon Suppression Division?"

Chu Liang refused directly: "I don't want to."

"It's easy." Shi Fan smiled and said: "Don't refuse in a hurry. Let me tell you. The reason why the Demon Suppression Division is not known to ordinary people is because we adopt an invitation system. Only those who are invited can There is no way for outsiders to join.”

"Isn't this just like the guests from various noble families?" Chu Liang asked.

"no the same."

Shi Fan explained: "For each noble family, as long as you are strong enough and have a clean background, you can actively join and become their guest minister, but the Demon Suppression Division can only invite you."

"Still not interested." Chu Liang said.

"Don't worry, you'll hear from me again." Shi Fan was very patient, "The Demon Suppression Division has no restrictions on you. Unlike those Lord families, although it is difficult to join, you can leave if you want, as long as you sign a confidentiality contract That’s it.”

This is quite attractive.

Without restraint, this is the greatest pursuit of warriors.

Moreover, Shi Fan said that the Demon Suppression Department of the Fucheng Martial League contained third-rate or even second-rate martial arts skills, which could be exchanged directly as long as the merits were sufficient.

In terms of resources, the Demon Suppression Division is no worse than any other noble family and has more freedom.

You should know that because Chu Liang's native place is local, he could not directly join the Fucheng Martial League unless he had served in the local county Martial League for more than fifteen years.

But as long as he accepts the invitation, he can bypass this treaty and directly become a member of the Fucheng Martial Alliance.

However, Chu Liang does not lack resources.

Seeing that Chu Liang was not tempted, Shi Fan added: "Chu Liang, think about it seriously. This small place in the county cannot contain a dragon like you. If you stay here, you will only waste your talent. Must travel. ”

"I do have plans to travel around." Chu Liang nodded.

"So you should join the Demon Suppression Division." Shi Fan was very patient. "As long as you join the Demon Suppression Division and have the status of the Demon Suppression Envoy, the libraries and information channels of the various martial alliances will be open to you, making it easier for you to travel in the future."

"oh?"

Chu Liang's expression changed slightly, and he finally became a little interested.

The Wu League can be regarded as the most powerful force in the entire dynasty, like nails hammered into all parts of Daliang and Jiuzhou.

Every day, countless news spread among martial alliances in various places, like invisible threads, connecting these martial alliances, and eventually formed a large network, netting the warriors of the entire Liang Dynasty.

How could Shi Fan and others investigate all the information about Chu Liang so quickly? It's not just because they have the right to mobilize local martial arts information at will!

"Plus, there's a bonus."

Seeing that Chu Liang was finally moved, Shi Fan said with a smile: "As long as you join the Demon Suppression Division, all personal information about you will be protected. Outsiders are not allowed to inquire at will. At most, they can only find scattered information on the surface. "

"How could this happen?" Chu Liang was surprised.

"Of course!"

Shi Fan explained that the Demon Suppressor has been dealing with monsters all year round, and personal privacy is very important.

Over the years, the demon clan has sent a large number of demon beasts to sneak into human territory.

Some of the monsters are specifically responsible for exploring the secrets of the members of the Demon Suppression Department, looking for the weaknesses of the Demon Suppression Envoys, and trying to instigate them to rebel.

Chu Liang was a little confused: "Instigating rebellion?"

Shi Fan replied: "Yes, a few years ago, there was a demon-suppressing envoy who was bewitched by the demon clan and provided a lot of information about our human race to the demon clan, which caused heavy losses to our demon-suppressing department."

Chu Liang asked: "How was he instigated to rebel?"

"Emotional matters."

Shi Fan said to Chu Liang: "The wife of the Demon Suppressor is a white fox demon that has transformed into a human form. He didn't know it at first. When he found out, he had been bewitched by the fox demon and was deeply trapped in it. ,Inextricable."

"I see."

Chu Liang suddenly realized that he occasionally saw such stories in some folklore and gossip.

The relationship between humans and monsters often ends badly in the end.

"Chu Liang, what do you think? Joining the Demon Suppressing Division not only has the benefits I mentioned just now, but there is also a very important one." Shi Fan said, "As long as you become the Demon Suppressing Envoy, you will have a seventh-grade official status. , has been appointed by the imperial court, and is equivalent to the county magistrate of this place."

"I have the power of the Skin Refining Realm. It's not difficult to become a seventh-grade official." Chu Liang said calmly.

"That's true, but the Demon Suppressor, a seventh-grade official, is bigger than other seventh-grade officials."

"I'm not interested in being an official."

"But you must be interested in power."

Shi Fan smiled and said: "Power is also a kind of strength. Having this layer of official skin is better than nothing."

The others also spoke one after another, telling Chu Liang the benefits of this official status.

As long as Chu Liang accepts this identity, from now on, the rest of the people will no longer be able to use the power of the government to deal with him.

"You also know that the officialdom in Daliang has long been decayed. There are arrogant and domineering yamen everywhere. What those yamen are best at is abusing the power of the government."

Ya Nei, that is, within the official Yamen, generally refers to the children of bureaucrats.

In Chu Liang's previous life, the most famous person was Gao Yanei in "Water Margin".

Shi Fan said to him: "With your personality, you will inevitably have conflicts with local Yanei or corrupt officials in the future. As long as you have this official position, you can avoid a lot of trouble."

"That's true."

Chu Liang thought for a while. He rarely provokes others, but there are always blind people who provoke him.

As a genius, it is inevitable to be envied.

As Shi Fan said, with this official position, he can avoid a lot of trouble in the future and concentrate on martial arts.

"Is there really not much restraint?" Chu Liang asked again.

"No!" Shi Fan vowed, "If you don't believe it, I can swear on the spot!"

"Swear..."

Chu Liang shook his head. He didn't believe this thing the most.

Afterwards, Shi Fan and others put a contract in front of Chu Liang.

Chu Liang sat down and read it carefully. He found that the contract was indeed very free and almost had no restraint on him.

The only thing to pay attention to is to keep his identity confidential.

To the outside world, he was still just an ordinary member of the Martial Alliance. It was only because of his great talent that he was allowed to change his status from the County Martial Alliance to the higher-level Fucheng Martial Alliance.

Finally, Chu Liang signed his name on the contract.

"Haha, good! From now on, you are my Shi Fan's brother!"

"And my Li Feng's brother!"

"And me..."

The dozen people laughed and spoke. They knew Chu Liang's background and style of doing things very well and knew that Chu Liang was a trustworthy person.

After that, everyone introduced their identities to Chu Liang.

The man who just attacked Chu Liang was named Li Feng. He was in the early stage of the Leather Refining Realm and was from Fucheng. At first, he was just a waiter in a restaurant in Fucheng. He worked hard to save money and bought the most common "Nourishing Blood Skills" to embark on the road of martial arts and slowly reached his current status.

There were no adventures in his life, but only steady progress step by step.

Among the other dozen people, more than half were in the early stage of the Leather Refining Realm, only three were in the middle stage of the Leather Refining Realm, and one was in the late stage.

As for Shi Fan.

As one of the nine deputy directors of the Fucheng Wumeng Demon Suppression Division, he is a real muscle refining expert!

"In the future, if you don't understand something about cultivation, you can ask me directly." Shi Fan said to Chu Liang, "With your talent, it is not difficult to reach the late stage of skin refining. I look forward to your early breakthrough to the muscle refining realm."

He thinks highly of Chu Liang, even more than the late stage of skin refining in the team.

After some introductions, both sides are familiar with each other.

Li Feng and others asked the question again: "How did you practice? In a small place like the county, which is poor in resources, you can break through the skin refining realm at such a young age. Did you take some magic medicine?"

"That's not the case."

Chu Liang smiled and said: "In terms of talent, I am not very good."

Hearing this, Li Feng and others immediately had the urge to beat him.

If this is not good, then the talents of the rest of them are not garbage?

Chu Liang said again: "Although the county is poor, I have a lot of resources along the way."

"Oh, why is that?" Li Feng and others were very curious.

"All these were left to me by my master."

"Your master?"

Shi Fan suddenly said: "Is it your hunter master in Qingshi Village?"

"Yes, that old hunter..."

Chu Liang once again told the story of him and the old hunter.

This time, just like before, he still attributed all his achievements to the old hunter.

Everyone was fascinated by the story, and no one interrupted him from beginning to end.

After listening, Li Feng couldn't help but sigh: "Chu Liang, your old hunter master was probably a strong man in the tendon refining realm when he was alive."

"Yes, he should be a leader in the tendon refining realm, and it is possible that he was also a bone refining realm." Shi Fan also sighed, "Such a strong man cannot have no name, but he may be tired of the world and unwilling to let you get involved in the disputes of the world, and he didn't tell you his true identity until his death."

Chu Liang just smiled and said nothing.

Everyone sat in the yard and talked about many things again.

They talked until the evening.

Shi Fan stood up and said to Chu Liang: "We will also join the demon-killing mission in a few days, but we will not show up directly, but hide in the dark. If things go well, we may not show up from beginning to end. As for Chu Liang...you act according to your own plan."

"Okay."

Chu Liang likes to act alone.

Shi Fan knew his character and did not ask him to do anything, giving him great freedom.

Soon, night fell, Shi Fan and others left, disappearing in the endless night.

In the next few days, Chu Liang stayed in seclusion.

He has been tempering his blood and qi, without wasting any time.

Finally, on the seventh day after the Lantern Festival, the call of the Wumeng spread throughout the county.

"Go into the mountains and kill the monsters!"
