I Slay Gods and Demons in the Deceit Night Chapter 144 - 115 The Highest Talent in Three Hundred Years!

Amid the streets and alleys, the stench of blood was intensely thick.

The Flag Commander of the Cold Gate Departnt and all the junior flag bearers were dead, their conditions tragic and desolate.

Anyone who witnessed the scene couldn’t help but tremble with shock and fear.

As Zhou Kui, the General Flag Envoy, began to speak, the two Flag Commanders behind him and nurous junior flag bearers crowded around, drawing their swords to confront.

"Evil Spirit?"

Zhou Kui’s face was cold as ice, and he slowly said, "Where is the Evil Spirit?"

He pointed ahead and said, "The n under my command from the Cold Gate Departnt are almost entirely dead, slaughtered with knives! Tell , is this the handiwork of an Evil Spirit killing people?"

Dismounting from his horse, he drew his sword from its scabbard and slowly continued, "I am aware you have just been promoted to General Flag Envoy, and you want to strut around my territory, but you chose to slaughter colleagues from the Observatory. If I do not capture you today, how can I, Zhou Kui, hold any standing in High Willow City?"

"You don’t need to hold any standing,"

Lin Yan did not show any sign of weakness. Drawing his blade, he said indifferently, "Whether you are blind or foolish, it’s enough to prove that you no longer deserve to sit in the position of General Flag Envoy."

He took steps forward with an even pace and said, "The Evil Spirit road your territory and you did not dare to act! I took action and killed the Evil Spirit, and now you co to throw dirt on !"

"Do you think the Evil Spirit will fight you desperately, that this old man will consider the bigger picture for you?"

"Or do you think that you can’t handle the Evil Spirit but can handle , a young junior Martial Artist?"

Approaching closer, Lin Yan suddenly unleashed a strike with his blade!

Thunder Blade!

In an instant, lightning flashed!

Zhou Kui was prepared, raising his blade to block!

Suddenly, he saw Lin Yan’s foot strike his chest, sending him flying.

The other Flag Commanders and junior flag bearers rushed forward.

Lin Yan rely swung his blade casually and clashing sounds filled the air as broken blades dropped to the ground.

His gaze was piercing, sweeping over everyone, striking such fear into the surrounding Flag Commanders and junior flag bearers that they involuntarily stepped back.

Looking at Zhou Kui, who had been knocked over by his kick, Lin Yan said calmly, "Relying on the fact you’ve been in the Refining Essence Realm for many years, and your cultivation is far above mine? But if I can slay the Evil Spirit, what’s stopping from slaying you?"

"Refining Essence Realm!"

In Zhou Kui’s eyes, uncertainty flickered.

He had assud that this young man’s promotion to General Flag Envoy was due to his peak Internal Strength cultivation, barely qualifying him, and his recent outstanding contributions had led to an exception in his promotion.

He had not expected the young man to have already reached the level of the Refining Essence Realm!

"So young, yet already in the Refining Essence Realm, Wu Chang’s reputation is indeed well-deserved..."

Just then, the man in blue clothes spoke with admiration, "But with such an Evil Spirit, incense ashes are useless, candles are useless. Without the Temple’s intervention, it’s hard to restrain it. Even with the Refining Essence Realm, what abilities do you have to slay the Evil Spirit? Or are you saying there wasn’t an Evil Spirit at all?"

Before the man’s voice had died away, Lin Yan reached into his chest and pulled out a Spirit Talisman, saying indifferently, "Is Mr. Lu’s Spirit Talisman not qualified enough?"

"That is indeed enough,"

The man in blue clothes pointed to the Little White Ape beside him and said, "But you raising this little demon is akin to worshipping an Evil Spirit; you ought to give a clear explanation."

As he rode on his horse and took out a pair of shackles from the side, he threw them in front of Lin Yan and said, "Those who are innocent need not fear; wear these yourself. If there truly has been an injustice, you will be given a fair trial! But if you refuse, then you must have a guilty conscience; do not bla..."

Before he could finish speaking, Lin Yan’s blade chopped down onto the ground, breaking the shackles.

"Who are you to put on a show in front of , the Commander?"

"Audacious!"

Zhou Kui stepped forward and shouted, "This is Qifeng Prefecture City, the Mid City Guard Army, Left Wing General, Mr. Fu Jiu!"

"He’s not from my Observatory, and he dares to ddle in Observatory affairs?"

Suddenly Lin Yan raised his hand, and in a flash, an arrow was shot from a small crossbow!

The man in blue clothes’s face changed slightly, and he imdiately leaned to dodge!

Then a heavy thud followed!

Zhou Kui was kicked over!

Lin Yan had already approached, reaching out with one hand to grab the horse’s head!

In the night, by the light of lanterns, one could see the young General Flag Envoy, with one hand pressing down, overturning the steed!

Clashing tal sounded!

Blades t, sparks flew!

The man in blue clothes drew his sword to block Lin Yan’s blade, and with a turn, he retreated backward, his face varying between shades of pale and red with extre irritation.

"You dare draw a sword in front of this general?"

"And did you not spew arrogant words in front of this General Flag Envoy?"

Lin Yan placed the back of his blade on his shoulder, glanced at him, and fixed his gaze on Zhou Kui, saying indifferently, "Now it is not your turn to investigate , but mine to investigate you."

The atmosphere at the scene beca incredibly tense.

Zhou Kui’s face shifted colors, waves of turmoil rising in his heart.

If the first ti was underestimating the opponent’s ability, mistaking him for just a peak Internal Strength practitioner and being caught off guard by a kick,

Then this ti, despite being on guard, he was still kicked over.

The Left Wing General of the Prefecture City Guard Army was also knocked off his horse and narrowly escaped being slashed.

This was not sothing soone freshly entered into the Refining Essence Realm could do!

"I, Wu Chang, acting on the orders of Deputy Commander Zhou Yuan, assist Left City Guard Army Great Commander Yuan Tongye, to thoroughly investigate the assassination case of City Commander Wang Yuan, to collect intelligence and provide guidance,"

Lin Yan, his blade pointed toward Zhou Kui, continued slowly, "The banner of the Cold Gate appeared near Jinliu Manor on that night... and the person who assassinated Commander Wang Yuan also appeared near Jinliu Manor! I have every reason to suspect that you colluded with the murderer to assassinate the Southern City Commander Wang Yuan!"

He slightly lifted his head, looking down, and declared, "At this mont, leading a crowd this way even further exposes you and suggests a suspicion of attempting to silence by murder!"

"You..."

Zhou Kui’s face turned colors, his expression extrely volatile.

And around them, the Flag Commanders and junior flag bearers who had been following Zhou Kui were even more shocked.

If it involved instructions from the Observatory’s Deputy Commander, by continuing to follow Zhou Kui’s orders, they ran the risk of being suspected of "rebellion."
