Chapter 952: 952 Chapter 952: 952 Detecting demons was precisely one of the capabilities that Wang Chen had stimulated and mastered with the spearhead of the Taichu Slaying Demon Spear.
Wang Chen had once tested it with the head of a Bloodthirsty Demon; as long as he kept the spearhead close to his body, he could sense the presence of demonic aura within a certain distance.
Humans have Qi, demons have demonic auras, and the principle of the Demon Identifying Talisman originates from this concept. However, so demons are extrely adept at concealing their auras, and these Daoist talismans are not infallible.
But as long as a demon exists in this world, even if it devours souls and possesses bodies, it cannot completely hide its demonic aura.
Wang Chen had also conducted tests on the demons imprisoned in the Prefecture Guard’s dungeon and confird the rits of the Demon-Slaying Spear’s head. Therefore, he had always carried it close to his body, integrating it with his heart.
Because placing the Demon-Slaying Spear at this location made his perception abilities the strongest!
With his chest burning hot and Qi-Blood churning, Wang Chen didn’t hesitate to step into the elegant room, his gaze instantly sweeping the entire room.
There were five gamblers seated in this gambling room, playing Heaven and Earth Cards; in addition, there was a croupier dealing cards and nurous beautiful maidservants.
In just a breath’s ti, Wang Chen had locked onto one of the gamblers.
This gambler, dressed in a purple robe and of a sturdy build, had a square face and an imposing manner, clearly soone accustod to positions of high authority.
But to Wang Chen, he was nothing but a demon.
The Taichu Slaying Demon Spear would not be mistaken.
Truly finding what one seeks without any effort, like finding sothing by re chance!
At the sa ti as Wang Chen fixed his gaze on the other, the gambler felt an induction and imdiately raised his head.
He t Wang Chen’s gaze head-on.
The man in the purple robe knitted his brows and asked in a deep voice, “Who are you?”
“Demon, et your death!”
Wang Chen didn’t waste words with his opponent; he suddenly took a step forward, shot out, and with an outstretched hand aid directly for the vital spot of the opponent’s throat.
The man in the purple robe had had no idea that Wang Chen would launch an attack and so swiftly and fiercely at that.
But his reaction was not slow at all, just as he was about to have his throat seized, he suddenly tilted backwards with his chair.
Wang Chen was already close at hand, and without hesitation, he clenched his five fingers into a fist. His right arm, infused with the power of the Evil Wheel, heavily slamd down.
Bang!
Wang Chen’s arm struck with great force against the torso of the man in the purple robe, instantly slamming him down to the floor.
“How audacious!”
At that mont, the other gamblers present ca to their senses. A white-clad man’s eyes bulged with rage as he bellowed and imdiately launched a punch towards Wang Chen.
Though it was a hastily made move, the fist was imbued with powerful and heavy force; his knuckles protruded, gleaming with a tallic luster as if hamred into bone – a clear indication of deeply trained boxing skills.
He was indeed a fourth-tier Martial General!
However, Wang Chen ignored the incoming fist and reached into his chest, grabbing the Demon-Slaying Spearhead.
He thrust it downward towards the purple-robed gambler.
This gambler, who was suspected to be a demon, had endured Wang Chen’s strike and was not devoid of the ability to fight back. He tried to struggle to his feet, only to be unexpectedly pierced in the right chest by the spearhead.
“Ah!”
He involuntarily let out a piercing scream; his chest was penetrated by the Demon-Slaying Spearhead, and he fell back onto the floor again.
Bang!
Simultaneously, a heavy punch fiercely struck Wang Chen’s neck.
The punch was full of strength, and the power contained within was enough to kill a wild tiger or break a person’s neck.
However, the punch felt like hitting thick leather when it struck Wang Chen, and it couldn’t even make his head wobble in the slightest.
Not only that, but the fourth-tier expert who attacked Wang Chen grunted and staggered back several steps.
His eyes revealed an unparalleled shock, “Martial Ancestor!”
It was these words that made everyone else present stop their actions unanimously, not continuing to join forces to attack Wang Chen.
Wang Chen lifted his right leg and stepped on the body of the man in the purple robe, pinning the latter firmly under his foot, then turned to the man in white who was holding his right fist with his left hand and sweating profusely from his forehead, saying, “Dare to make a move again, and I shall show no rcy!”
The man in white was drenched in cold sweat; his lips quivered several tis, but he mustered up the courage to say, “I am Sun Feiyu from Guangping; may I inquire the esteed na and surna of Your Excellency, and why you are making things difficult for the head of the Shi family?”
He had a life-or-death friendship with the man in the purple robe, and the relationship between their families was deeper than that of allies, yet despite being terrified by Wang Chen’s strength, he still braced himself to negotiate.
Wang Chen’s wrist turned, revealing a waist token: “The Blood Cloak Guard is handling matters, do I need to explain to you?”
Blood Cloak Guard!
Everyone present was alard, and Sun Feiyu turned pale, trembling as he said, “Your Excellency, is there perhaps so misunderstanding? We are very familiar with Chen Yuanjie, the General Flag of the Guangping Defense Area…”
“Ha!”
Wang Chen let out a cold laugh, saying, “It would be very interesting if a demon was very familiar with the General Flag Chen!”
Normally, during an investigation, arriving in Guangping City to track down the culprit, seeking help from the local Defense Area would be the best choice.
But Wang Chen didn’t believe that a few more Blood Cloak Guards would be of much use; they might even tip off the enemy and alert them to his presence, so he disguised himself and entered the Peony Pavilion to investigate.
What he relied on was indeed the tip of the Taichu Slaying Demon Spear!
“Demons?”
Sun Feiyu and the others were imdiately terrified, “How could Shi Hongyuan possibly be a demon!”
They could not believe that this familiar head of the Shi family could be a demon!
So even suspected that Wang Chen was framing them deliberately, seeking to seize the Shi family’s wealth.
Such things were not uncommon!
Sun Feiyu swallowed nervously, carefully saying, “Your Excellency, there must be so misunderstanding here; why don’t we sit down and talk slowly, surely we can clarify everything.”
He had already decided that even if it ant dispersing his family’s wealth, he could not let Shi Hongyuan be labeled as a demon.
“Misunderstanding?”
Wang Chen laughed, reaching out to grab the head of the Shi family by the throat and lifting him up.
“Ugh~”
Shi Hongyuan kicked out wildly, trying to resist but it was as though his spine had been removed. The wound pierced by the spear tip in his right chest was emitting strands of grey smoke without a drop of blood oozing out.
This was very wrong, and after being grasped by the throat, Shi Hongyuan’s face contorted violently, his eyes bulging out of their sockets, looking hideously terrifying.
In fact, the wound on his right chest was not severe, nowhere near fatal.
But what was fatal was the spear tip embedded in his body continuously siphoning his demonic breath.
Pfft!
In the next mont, Shi Hongyuan’s face suddenly split open, as lumps of indistinct flesh erged.
“Wang Chen!”
Just then, a woman in a red skirt charged into the room furiously, shouting, “You son of a…”
However, she suddenly fell silent.
Because the scene in the private room was simply too bizarre, especially Shi Hongyuan, who Wang Chen had grabbed by the throat and lifted; he could no longer maintain his human shape and was now revealing his true demonic form!
This red-skirted woman was Zhong Yingyao; although her temper was explosive and capricious, she was definitely not a brainless fool.
Realizing sothing was wrong, she imdiately turned and ran, “I’m out of here!”
