he feeling from just now. After a long while, he reopened his eyes, a faint smile on his face.Although I am mentally exhausted.But.He, however, found that his understanding of the true meaning of a hu...Last night's events at the Wan Hua Tower have already left Nie Xu in a state of distress.
Before the incident at Wanhu Tower could be settled, other citizens encountered misfortune.
In the past, a few deaths could have quelled public opinion.
But at this critical juncture, with further deaths occurring, the ensuing turmoil can only be imagined.
The main thing is.
If there are really demons hidden in Jin City, if they are not removed as soon as possible, the consequences will be unimaginable.
If he waited until the defenses were relaxed and another group of people died, Nie Xu felt that he should step down.
Upon hearing this, Shen Changqing did not immediately agree.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!
"The Black Tiger Army has always been powerful and has slain many demons. Now that the Black Tiger Army has entered the city, if there are other demons lurking in Jin City, I believe the Black Tiger Army is more than capable of dealing with them. Lord Nie came to me instead of someone closer at hand, isn't that a bit too far-fetched"
Although he had never seen the Black Tiger Army with his own eyes, he could tell how powerful they were just from the bearing of their soldiers.
That's all.
The Wen Ce before me is a formidable expert.
Generally, demons and evil spirits pose no significant threat given their capabilities.

Nie Xu hadn't had time to reply when Wen Ce, standing beside him, spoke first.
The content inside the tags is "
". Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"Lord Shen may not be aware, while the Black Tiger Army is indeed capable of dealing with demons, demons are masters of hiding. It's not easy for ordinary Black Tiger Army members to accurately locate a demon's whereabouts."
Compared to the Black Tiger Army, the people of the Demon Suppression Division are more accustomed to dealing with demons and evil spirits. They would likely find the demon easier than the Black Tiger Army.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Therefore, I hope Mr. Shen can lend a hand and help the Black Tiger Army find the demons.
Let me know if you have more text you'd like me to translate!
That's all I have to say about that.
Wen Ce suddenly bowed deeply.
“On behalf of the people of Jin City, I would like to express our gratitude in advance, Sir Shen.”
Watching Wen Ce's actions, Shen Changqing had a knowing smile on his face.
I didn't expect that.
A martial officer before my eyes, could even put a hat on better than Nie Xu, who was a civilian official.
As usual, even if Wen Ce said something, he wouldn't bother listening.
> However.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Finding demons is inherently Shen Changqing's goal.
The killing value on the current panel is running low. To increase one's power in a short period of time, they must hunt down enough demons and evil creatures.
That's all.
Even if Wen Ce and Nie Xu didn't mention it, in the clear presence of demonic creatures, he would still find a way to go and take a look. Having the opportunity to kill a few demonic creatures would undoubtedly be excellent.
>
But Nie Xu spoke first, and then Shen Changqing asked in detail.
If there are any unforeseen problems, be sure to prepare for them in advance.
He took a long, hard look at Wen Ce.
Shen Changqing smiled faintly: "Wen Da Ren is joking. As someone from the Demon Suppression Office, I naturally prioritize the well-being of the people. Even if Wen Da Ren didn't say anything, I wouldn't refuse."
> Implication.
I, Shen Changqing, have nothing to do with your Wen Ce.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!
That's it.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Wen Ce remained calm and showed no significant change in expression.
He hesitated for a moment.
Shen Changqing looked at Nie Xu: "As for dealing with the demons, there is no need for the Black Tiger Army to get involved. My Demon Suppression Division will handle it ourselves. When the time comes, the yamen will send someone to lead the way, and I will take care of the rest."
“Thank you, Lord Shen!”
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Nie Xu's face broke into a smile, as if he hadn't heard the conversation between the two just now.
He was the magistrate of Jincheng, and his only goal was to maintain stability in Jincheng.
That's all.
What's the big deal about it
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
As if he had just thought of something, Shen Changqing couldn't help but say, “Just now, I also went to Wanhua Tower. I saw the yamen send people to block off that street.”
"That's right."
Nie Xu nodded, a smile fading from his face.
Last night, all the people on that street were killed by demons. Their bodies were burned for a whole night before they were completely cleaned up. Now, this official cannot guarantee whether there are still demons hiding there.
If there were truly demons lurking within, should other villagers enter, bloodshed might occur once again.
“It seems Lord Nie was worried about this issue.”
Shen Changqing feigned a look of understanding, then shook his head again.
“Master Nie can rest assured about this. I went to Wanhu Tower earlier and can confirm that all the demons and monsters there have retreated. Even the lingering traces of sinister energy are minimal.”
Sending more people to block that area would undoubtedly be a waste of the government's manpower.
Moreover, with street closures in place, it will inevitably have an impact on people's hearts. This matter requires careful consideration.
Upon hearing this.
Nie Xu didn't seem too surprised either, but instead thought seriously about Shen Changqing's words and finally nodded.
"Since Master Shen has already confirmed that there are no demons or monsters there, there is no need to keep people stationed there. As Master Shen said, having government officials block off the area will inevitably cause some unnecessary trouble."
Roadblocks have been set up.
Even on the streets, if there were truly no demons or monsters, people would still mistakenly believe that they existed.
Otherwise, why would the government station people there
This is the human heart.
It's not something that can be soothed with just a word or two.
As long as the government officials continue to guard there, they will always be feared.
That's it.
Shen Changqing understood, Nie Xu also understood the same.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
He then looked at the person beside him and said in a low voice, "Master Liu, you go and tell Head Liu and his men to bring people back."
"Yes!"
Liu Zhu, the magistrate, nodded and then left the government office.
"Nie Xu then turned to the other clerks: "You all deal with the bodies on the ground. Don't cause any trouble."
"I understand!"
"Mr. Shen, Mr. Wen, let's go inside the hall and sit for a while. We can wait for Captain Liu to return before we talk."
After Nie Xu had given his orders, he said to the two people.
Upon seeing this.
Neither of them refused.
Inner Hall.
It is worth mentioning that the inner hall of the Jin City government office is much larger than the inner hall of the Lin'an City government office.
Perhaps the city of Jin, being a large city after all, is destined to be like this.
Setting aside other considerations, just the population of Jin City is something that Lin'an City cannot compare to.
The three of them sat down.
Soon, a clerk brought up some tea.
Nie Xu lifted his teacup, took a tiny sip, then put it back down, his gaze falling on Shen Changqing.
"Lord Shen, with what has happened in Jin City now, is there any news from the Demon Suppression Division"
"Lord Nie, you jest. I belong to the Demon Suppression Division of the capital city. The Dahua Prefecture is far from the capital. If there were any news to be relayed back and forth, it wouldn't be possible to make the trip in just two days."
As for the Demon Suppression Division within the Great Wilderness Prefecture, I have no connections there.
You've asked the wrong person.
Shen Changqing shook his head and smiled wryly.
Every prefecture has a Demon Suppression Division, and although each division is connected, the demon hunters under them are not connected to all Demon Suppression Divisions.
Many times.
Demonslayers are usually connected to their own Demon Suppression Division. They rarely have contact with other Demon Suppression Divisions.
If there were any movements within the Demon Suppression Division of the Great Wilderness Prefecture.
To be honest.
He really doesn't know.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Upon hearing this.
Nie Xu also knew he had spoken out of turn, so he smiled awkwardly to cover up the embarrassment.
About half an hour.
Liu the head catcher walked in from outside and bowed his head to Nie Xu: "Sir, I am back to report!"
"Hmm." Nie Xu nodded and continued, "There were reports of demonic beasts rampaging in other parts of the city last night. Captain Liu should be aware of this, right"
That goes without saying.
Although Liu the Captain didn't understand Nie Xu's words, he readily admitted to them.
Speaking of.
Those bodies, he was the one who discovered them with his people.
Nie Xu said, "That's easy. Captain Liu should take Lord Shen to a few crime scenes and see if there are any traces of demons left behind."
"No problem."
Liu the head catcher was startled, but he quickly recovered.
Nie Xu nodded and then bowed to Shen Changqing.
“Lord Shen, Jin City is not yet stable. This official still has many matters to attend to and cannot accompany you there for now. For the time being, let Liu the Head Constable accompany Lord Shen to the scene of the crime.”
>
Well then, what are your thoughts on this matter, Master Shen
>
Unlike Liu the Head Constable, when facing Shen Changqing, he still had to follow the other party's opinion.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Shen Changqiang nodded. "Alright."
Upon hearing the agreement, Nie Xu also felt a slight relief in his heart.
Then I'll trouble you, Master Shen!
"You're welcome."
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
Shen Changqing stood up.
“Time is of the essence, let's not waste any more of it. Headmaster Liu, please lead the way. As for other matters, we can discuss them after dealing with these demons.”
“Mr. Shen, please!”
Liu the head catcher sidestepped and, as Shen Changqing left the inner hall, he followed suit.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
He left the government office.
Shen Changqing stopped in his tracks and turned to Liu, the head of the police, saying, "I'm not very familiar with Jin City. Since you know where the crime took place, why don't you lead the way"
"As you wish, Master Shen."
Liu the head catcher smiled, then pointed to the right.
"Master Shen, please come this way with me."
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"Hmm."
Shen Changqing lightly hummed in response, stepping forward to walk shoulder-to-shoulder with Liu the Head Catcher.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Along the way.
When some commoners saw Liu the head constable carrying his sword, they would pause slightly or nod and greet him with a smile.
That's it.
Even Liu the head arrester would nod in response.
Seeing this, Shen Changqing couldn't help but smile and say, "It seems that Liu Captain is deeply loved by the people in Jin City!"
“Mr. Shen is jesting. I have only served in Jin City for some years, and that's all. I am more familiar with the common people.”
To tell the truth, I'm not quite sure what Liu Capt. 's real name is.
“Replying to Master Shen, this humble servant's true name is Liu Jian.”
"Liu Jian."
>
Shen Changqing silently recited the name, considering it memorized.
Although the two were talking, their feet never stopped moving.
Not long after.
They walked through the bustling streets and came to a secluded, open place.
>
A solitary well stands alone there.
Liu Jian stopped his steps and pointed to the well in front of him: "Master Shen, this is one of the places where a body was found. This well is usually used by the local people, but since the crime happened last night, no one dares to come near it."
The body was found lying by the well.
When Liu Jian was speaking.
Shen Changqing also sensed a faint, ominous aura from the well ahead.
