Chapter 224: The Crimson Vulture Clan
.Yang Yue did not leave, but looked at Zhou Chi and said in a deep voice, “General Zhou, has the emperor's instructions been carried out”“What does Master Yang mean Could it be that he doesn't trust t...in the courtyard.
Shen Changqing sat alone there, his expression fluctuating.
Although according to his guess, Daliang and Dàyuè are not temporarily infiltrated by demons.
But what about the future Who can guarantee that both sides won't be infiltrated by demons
All dynasties could be like the Zhou.
The big beams and the great Yue, are not necessarily absolutely reliable.
Now.

Shen Changqing could be 100% certain that the Zhou Dynasty's dealings with demons weren't as simple as a collaboration.
"Strength!"
"Everything is a matter of power."
“I can’t delay any longer. Before the situation spirals out of control, I must enhance my strength. Only when I become powerful enough to be unmatched can I truly control my own destiny!”
His eyes suddenly hardened.
Since entering the Demon Suppression Bureau, Shen Changqing has actually been constantly trying to improve his strength.
Martial arts auction.
The Demon-Subduing Prison has been built.
All of this is to allow one's own abilities to be improved more quickly and effectively.
>
But—
Compared to the current unclear situation, he felt that his speed of improvement was still too slow.
Although for everyone, becoming a master of great power from scratch in three years is unprecedented.
However.
No matter how fast one is, as long as their strength hasn't reached the point of controlling their own destiny, Shen Changqing thinks it's not enough.
"Once the Demon Suppression Citadels in Posheng City and Nanhai City are completed, I'll have the strength of two branches of the Demon Suppression Division. By then, there will be a constant supply of demons."
The only drawback is the issue of merit.
Shen Changqing pondered silently.
He didn't worry about his merits. By himself killing demons and obtaining demonic aura, he could still exchange for merits within the Demon Suppression Division.
It's just giving yourself a bonus to make up for the missing part.
But even so.
Consumption has also been reduced.
Subsequently, as long as new martial arts are introduced and exchanged for silver through auctions, the problem will be much simpler.
This is a cycle, a cycle that will never have a problem.
That's all.
Please provide me with the text you would like translated. I can help translate it into English for you.
Shen Changqing suddenly felt that just having the Nan Yu Mansion provide him with monsters was not enough. If he could get other mansions to do the same, it would be completely different.
>
However, this is unlikely.
He had always only been the garrison commander of Nan You Prefecture, and never meddled in the affairs of other prefectures.
Unless, I become the true ruler of the Demon Suppression Division, there will be a corresponding title.

Shen Changqing thought of what Dongfang Zhao had told him before.
Becoming the leader of the Demon Suppression Division, the benefits are very obvious.
Now that I think about it, it's actually not a big deal.
>
Unfortunately, the Eastern Decree is still alive. He can't just wait for the other party to die soon.
>
Speaking of which.
The leader of the Demon Suppression Division was quite good to himself as well.
But…
"If we can't go after the Demon Suppression Division, I could try targeting those sects instead. While the Demon Suppression Division is the main force against demonic evils, various factions and schools also pose a considerable threat to them."
"It would be beneficial for me as well to receive their support."
Shen Changqing tapped his finger lightly.
Attacking from the perspective of sects and clans is much simpler than attacking from the Demon Suppression Bureau's side.
What those forces want, to put it plainly, is actually quite simple.
Martial Arts!
Resources!
Shelter!
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
As for resources, he didn't have much, but in terms of martial arts protection, there was no problem at all.
Alluring a group of sects with sweet promises and then having them serve you by regularly supplying demons.
The more Shen Changqing thought about it, the more feasible it seemed.
Forces like the Tian Dao Men would be ecstatic to connect with the Zhen Mo Si. If this opportunity presented itself, he believed that Tian Dao Men would absolutely not refuse to form ties.
The same reasoning applies.
Some other sects also hope to connect with the Demon Suppression Division, or to connect with me, this Grandmaster.
>
That's it.
It's not that Shen Changqing is narcissistic, but the fact speaks for itself.
A living grandmaster, and a top-tier expert of the present age, who wouldn't want to cultivate more relationships
In the future, if there is ever a dire crisis, it might just be that this connection will lead to our salvation.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
That's all.
He didn't get something for nothing.
What is given with good intentions will also be received with good intentions.
>
The remaining issue to consider is that of the Qin court.
As the formidable Marshal of Nanyu Mansion, it's impossible to avoid suspicion when one has connections with numerous martial arts sects.
If he were in Qin Shi Huang's position, he would also be suspicious of such a person.
"My current strength doesn't need to be overly concerned about the reaction from the imperial court. If I can take another step forward and break through the barrier of a Grandmaster, this issue won't even be a concern."
Right now, as long as we operate in secret and don't reveal too much, I believe there won't be any trouble for the time being.
All that's left is to find an opportunity to connect with those sects.
As the thought reached this point, a sneer appeared on Shen Changqing's face.
He had put off addressing the issues within the Nanyu Mansion sect for a long time due to various reasons.
Now that the auction is over, it's time to wrap things up.
But before that.
Let's let Tian Kui transform first and then talk about it.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
This ferocious beast has been dormant for a long time, and now it's almost ready to complete its metamorphosis.
Just from the breath.
One step away from reaching the peak of a grandmaster.
Time flies.
Several days have passed.
This day.
Tian Kui, lying motionless on the ground, suddenly trembled violently. The fleshy sacs on his back contracted, like two hearts beating incessantly inside.
Boom!!
The sound grew louder and louder, as if someone was beating a large drum.
Eyes opened, a flash of crimson.
Tian Kui raised his head and roared to the heavens, a deafening bellow that shook the very earth.
"Roar!!"
The roar shook the heavens and earth, as if the entire Poshang City trembled lightly in the sound.
Not only were the people of the Demon Suppression Division startled, but even all the commoners in the city were awakened by this roar.
"What's going on!"
"What on earth happened"
"Alert, alert..."
The powerful figures in the Demon Suppression Department mostly changed color drastically. In that roar, they felt a tremendous threat.
It's very obvious.
An entity capable of producing such a sound must be incredibly powerful.
When someone discovered the source of the sound, things finally calmed down.
Xing Yi sank his voice and said, "Don't panic, the sound came from Shen Zhen's residence. Just do your own things!"
>
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Upon hearing this.
Some who did not know the truth also put their minds at ease.
The sound came from Shen Changqing, so there was no problem with that.
If there is any problem.
With that Shen Zhen's strength, he could directly suppress it.
Not until everyone had dispersed did Xing Yi turn his gaze towards the direction of the courtyard.
>
He could hear it.
This sound is coming from Tian Kui.
Feeling that powerful aura once again, the other party couldn't help but speculate.
"Could it be that Tian Kui has once again broken through"
Shen Changqing brought the Tian Kui cub out of the Heavenly Realm. From then until now, it's only been a few months.
several months.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
It is indeed quite astonishing that a juvenile Tian Kui has grown to its current size.
But since it happened to Shen Changqing, Xing Yi found it reasonable.
After all.
The very existence of the other party is unreasonable.
By contrast, other unreasonable things appear much more reasonable when they are done by the other party.
Shake your head.
Xing Yi didn't think about it anymore.
In the courtyard, Tian Kui fully woke up. The two meat sacs behind him burst, and a pair of wings with purple patterns grew from them.
With the flapping of two pairs of wings, a strong gust of wind surged through the courtyard.
Please note that "
The flapping wings came to a halt.
Now, it had grown to the size of an adult Heavenly Tyrant in the Heavenly Realm, with no difference at all. The Heavenly Tyrant lowered its crimson gaze to the person before it.
In its mind.
Two voices were talking non-stop.
A voice was saying that the person before him was his own master, and he could not disobey his commands.
Another voice chimed in, saying that the beast had no owner and should be killed before leaving the place.
Two voices sounded.
Let Tian Kui fall into a state of hesitation.
The crimson eyes, sometimes gentle, sometimes cruel.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
At this time.
Shen Changqing's body came soaring through the air, landing directly on Tian Kui's back. Before the opponent could react, a force akin to a mountain collapsing erupted with a deafening roar.
The terrifying might forced Tian Kui to kneel with all fours.
That powerful force sent shivers down the spine of this formidable beast, which had just reached maturity after its transformation.
>
Suddenly.
Both voices in my mind, had vanished.
Originally, the pupils that were fierce had also instantly become gentle.
Its towering head bowed in submission.
Seeing this.
Shen Changqing had just gotten off Tian Kui's back.
Dealing with such ferocious beasts, there is no way to control them. You can only subdue them with your own overwhelming power.
Looking at Tian Kui, his expression had become somewhat indifferent.
"This is the last time, next time if you have any rebellious heart, I will kill you directly!"
Beneath the tranquil words, a potent killing intent lurks.
Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!
Tian Kui's head was bowed so low that it almost reached the ground.
At the same time.
Even Shen Changqing's mind echoed with a voice of awe.
"Yes!"
Although it's just a single character, one can hear the difference. Tian Kui after its transformation seems to have become much more fluent in communication compared to before.
Immediately.
Then Shen Changqing asked, "Is the realm you are currently in the limit of your Tian Kui clan"
As soon as the words left his mouth.
In no time, the sound of Tian Kui's voice echoed in his mind.
"My lord, our clan is not called Tian Kui, but Chi Xiao. However, based on my bloodline inheritance, the realm I've reached is indeed at an extreme."
Red Owl!
Shen Changqing nodded slightly.
It's not strange that Tian Kui isn't the true name of the other race.
Speaking of it, the two characters "Tian Kui" were just given by Zhen Mo Si.ly superior.So.After a period of stalemate in the battle, the scales of victory began to tilt in his favor.Boom!Two towering figures, their feet treading on the void, clashed in a terrifying battle. T...
