Chapter 90: Chapter 83: The Might of the Tiger Fiend
Within the Evil Extermination Bureau, a chilling atmosphere pervaded.
At this mont, five Jinzhou Commanders in dark uniforms with gold badges were standing solemnly.
Beneath them were countless Yinzhou Commanders.
As for the Tongzhou Commanders and State Officials, they had quietly set off long ago.
The secret treasure of the Tiger Race was to be unveiled tomorrow, but by arriving a day early, idle individuals could be cleared out.
Many martial forces in Lingzhou were eyeing the Tiger Race’s secret treasure, so the Evil Extermination Bureau not only sought to seize the treasure but also had to be wary of demonic creatures and guard against martial forces taking advantage amid the chaos.
When Qin An arrived, his gaze swept over the five Jinzhou Commanders and discovered that besides Yang Quanfeng, Wan Ziqing, whom he had t not long ago, was also among them.
As for the other three Jinzhou Commanders, Qin An did not scrutinize them further.
Shortly thereafter, everyone had arrived.
Wan Ziqing slowly stepped out from the Jinzhou Commanders’ lineup, her gaze indifferent as she scanned the crowd.
She cultivated a Cultivation Technique that severed emotions and desires, her eyes like eternal ice, devoid of any human emotions.
However, the killing intent in her gaze made nurous Yinzhou Commanders instinctively lower their heads.
"You are fortunate."
"Many have just joined the ranks of Yinzhou Commanders and already have such a good mission."
"This ti, fighting for your lives will earn you the rits you desire."
"I hope that one day, there will be another Jinzhou Commander among us."
Wan Ziqing spoke without any Jinzhou Commander finding it inappropriate, as if it were entirely normal.
This also indirectly proved Wan Ziqing’s prowess, ranking her among the top of the five Jinzhou Commanders.
She did not utter unnecessary words, but each syllable was a gem, penetrating the hearts of the crowd like nails.
Joining the Evil Extermination Bureau was all about exchanging life-threatening efforts for rits.
For this group of desperate individuals, a mission without risk was the most terrifying.
Qin An observed the glances of many Yinzhou Commanders, secretly noting that the Evil Extermination Bureau was indeed clever.
Anyone who exorcised demons and dealt with evil would naturally incur the resentnt of demonic creatures and Pseudo-Gods. Those who were resented had only one path: to strive even harder to climb upward.
This was a ticulously designed cycle by the Evil Extermination Bureau, the deeper one was entwined, the stronger they beca.
Wan Ziqing waved her fair arm and succinctly said, "Set off!"
Then, each Jinzhou Commander led the Yinzhou Commanders, filing out.
...
Wuyou Mountain.
Wuyou Mountain was originally a paradise on earth, full of birds and flowers.
Nad for its scenery that could make people forget their troubles, it ordinarily attracted many visitors, but today not a single person appreciated the scenery.
At this mont, the entirety of Wuyou Mountain was surrounded.
Countless figures in dark uniforms stood at every critical point of Wuyou Mountain.
Qin An held the black knife at his waist and looked up to the sky.
Dark clouds had already enveloped all of Wuyou Mountain, with a sense of impending storm wherever the eye could see.
Yang Quanfeng walked ahead, specifically asking Qin An to follow him, ascending the winding mountain path.
"There are four entrances, located at the east, south, west, and north of the mountain’s midsection."
"Except for one Jinzhou Commander guarding the outside, the other four Jinzhou Commanders, including myself, must enter the secret treasure’s location from one entrance."
"Rember, the rit you earn inside depends on your actions."
Yang Quanfeng spoke slowly, mostly directing his words at Qin An.
In his view, Qin An was soone worth nurturing.
It had nothing to do with talent, but with Qin An’s thods and ruthlessness.
By casually saying a few words, perhaps he might save his life when entering the secret treasure.
Qin An glanced around for a mont and did not spot the Thousand-Faced Monkey, then asked, "Where is the Thousand-Faced Monkey?"
Though under tight surveillance, the Thousand-Faced Monkey was ultimately a thorn, stuck in his throat.
Qin An did not know what the higher-ups were planning, nor did he know how they were fishing.
But as there was no sign of the Thousand-Faced Monkey now, Qin An felt it was fine to ask.
Yang Quanfeng glanced at Qin An: "He holds so utility and can be used as bait to detect the movents of demonic creatures."
"As for the Yinzhou Commander he occupies, it is under that woman Wan Ziqing’s command."
"He won’t survive, nor can he escape."
Qin An nodded and said no more.
Since there was soone specially monitoring, and it was under Wan Ziqing, the strongest among the five Jinzhou Commanders, he had no reason to worry.
Now, he only needed to wait for the Tiger Race’s secret treasure to open and reap the benefits from it.
Cheng Sufeng frequently stifled yawns.
He was just one step away from perfection, having read many dical books the night before.
Though it would not affect matters concerning the secret treasure, he appeared sowhat tired.
Seeing Qin An and Yang Quanfeng talking, Cheng Sufeng asked, "When will the Grand State Master return?"
Grand State?
Qin An halted, his eyes narrowing slightly.
The twelve Jinzhou Commanders were undoubtedly the top martial force in Lingzhou.
But above the twelve Jinzhou Commanders, there was one Grand State.
As the na implies, the Grand State was the one in command of the entire Lingzhou Evil Extermination Bureau.
But he had never heard any news about the Grand State, nor had he ever seen their face.
Being the actual controller of the Lingzhou Evil Extermination Bureau, the Grand State naturally had a noble status.
Qin An thought it quite normal not to et them, considering he was rely a Yinzhou Commander.
But now, hearing Cheng Sufeng’s words, he felt there might be sothing else amiss here.
Yang Quanfeng slowly continued: "The leader of the Demon Hall has revealed so position of their true form, and the Grand State Master now carries three Jinzhou Commanders, still searching outside."
"After so ti, if they still cannot be found, they will return."
At this point, Yang Quanfeng’s gaze shifted to Qin An.
"Isn’t it strange that though we need the Demon Hall to balance the powers of demonic creatures and Pseudo-Gods, we also seek the leader of the Demon Hall to eradicate them?"
Qin An nodded, speaking candidly: "It is indeed strange."
Yang Quanfeng’s gaze beca eerie: "Who wouldn’t want to exterminate demons?"
