Chapter 27 It turns out it was just a roadside stall.
In the courtyard.
Fourteen corpses were neatly arranged on the ground.
These corpses, at first glance, appear to have intact limbs.
However, upon closer inspection, one can discover that their hands, feet, and heads have all been rearranged and reassembled.
The woman's arm was placed in the old man's position.
The man's head was transferred to his son!
They were not placed there by servants, but by demons!
"That beast in the ditch..."
Lin Bufan gritted his teeth and clenched his fists.
The scene before him filled him with rage!
Generally speaking, the instinct of demons to eat people is ingrained in the very bones of demon gods.
It was an irresistible hunger.
Once a demon sees blood, it will only stop eating when it is full.
Therefore, these intact, disrupted, and reconstructed corpses reveal a very clear message:
This demon only came to kill people after it had eaten its fill! And it was a brutal killing!
This is blatant provocation!
Big Tiger walked in, pinching his nose, and said with a forced smile:
"Lord Lin, what's wrong? Are you angry?"
"Please don't be angry. Isn't this outcome obvious?"
Lin Bufan said coldly, "What did you say?"
"Is what I'm saying hard to understand?"
"Big Tiger said sarcastically."
"If you hadn't gone with that damned swordsman to get rid of the fox demon, how could the dog demon have infiltrated the inner city to seek revenge?"
Big Tiger tossed out a piece of paper with large, crooked characters written in blood:
"Prepare his head, and wait for me."
This "he" naturally refers to Li Qingchen!
Lin Bufan gritted his teeth and said, "It's Dog General, no, this method... it must be its younger brother!"
"Lord Lin, so many people have died within your jurisdiction. If the Chief Constable returns, he'll surely be furious, won't he?"
Big Tiger was still being sarcastic.
"You're clearly just a nobody, yet you insist on playing the hero. Not only have you ruined yourself, but you've also dragged others down with you, making them pay the price for your actions."
Ah Shui, who was standing to the side, finally couldn't hold back any longer and said, "Zhao Dahu, shut your dog mouth! Do you think everyone is like you, feeding their conscience to the dogs!"
Lin Bufan stared coldly at him, one hand already on the hilt of the knife.
Da Hu sneered, "Want to attack me? Well, after all, Lord Lin dared to lay a hand on a fox demon, so what wouldn't he dare to do against his own people?"
"As for the Chief Constable's rule of 'not attacking fellow disciples,' he probably doesn't take it seriously at all."
"Lord Lin, in my opinion, you should find that swordsman as soon as possible and hand him over to that dog demon. What do you say?"
Lin Bufan drew his long sword expressionlessly.
Even if breaking the rules means taking off this uniform and never being able to join the Demon Slayer Division again, he accepts it!
—At this moment.
"You're right, it's better to hand me over to that dog demon as soon as possible."
A voice, devoid of emotion, drifted in from afar, its tone faint and ethereal.
Zhao Dahu's expression changed, and he suddenly drew his sword!
However, it was too late!
A figure appeared before them like a ghost!
The instant Zhao Dahu raised his knife to strike, Li Qingchen kicked him in the stomach. Zhao Dahu's body bent like a shrimp, and a huge force sent him crashing into the wall in the distance!
"Cough cough... It's you! You're that swordsman! How dare you attack the Demon-Slaying Constable! Ugh!"
Zhao Dahu coughed up blood and kept dry heaving.
That kick almost ripped out his internal organs!
"Demon-slaying constable? You really know how to flatter yourself."
Li Qingchen looked at Lin Bufan: "My hitting him shouldn't be considered breaking your yamen's rules, right?"
"Not really."
Lin Bufan shook his head. "But it's illegal."
"..."
Li Qingchen was speechless, thinking to himself that this person was extremely boring.
Zhao Dahu, his face contorted with rage, roared, "Brothers, take him down! There's a hefty reward!"
"Let's see who dares!"
Lin Bufan suddenly shouted and pointed the tip of his knife at the restless crowd.
At the same time, several constables, led by Ah Shui, stepped forward.
Swish swish swish!!
The demon-slaying officers present suddenly split into two factions!
And at the center of this power was Li Qingchen.
Zhao Dahu's face scrunched up: "Lin Bufan, you'd better think this through. How are you going to explain this to that dog demon if you let this guy go!"
"Tell me you don't need to give it to me."
Li Qingchen suddenly said.
He squinted, looking towards a corner of the inner courtyard, and calmly said:
"You want my head, don't you? Come on, I'm right here, I'm not going anywhere."
"I'm waiting for you to come and get it."
boom! !
Suddenly, a fist covered in yellow hair pierced through the wall that Zhao Dahu was leaning against, along with his chest!
"Hehe, I originally wanted to see how you two would fight like dogs, but I didn't expect you to find out."
The yellow-haired dog demon chuckled softly.
It was clutching a heart that was still beating slightly in its hand!
The dog demon gently pierced its claws, which were sharp and scythe-like, and put them into its mouth.
He looked completely satisfied.
Zhao Dahu, standing to the side, had his eyes wide open; he was already dead beyond any doubt!
After swallowing the human heart, the dog demon looked at the terrified constable, shook its head, and then looked at Lin Bufan, who looked as if facing a formidable enemy, and shook its head again.
Finally, it smiled at Li Qingchen, who had an indifferent expression:
"I'm curious, how did you know I was hiding there?"
Li Qingchen withdrew his Qi-gazing technique, shook his head in imitation, and gave a cold laugh:
"Your brain is as stupid as a pig's; you wouldn't understand even if I explained it to you."
The dog demon's smile froze, and he roared:
"What did you say? That I'm stupid?"
Since its birth, no one has ever dared to speak to it like that!
Even Chief Constable Ding Sen had to speak calmly and respectfully out of respect for his elder brother!
How dare someone who only provides basic sustenance do such a thing!
The yellow-haired dog demon tilted its head, stretched out its paw slightly, and suddenly disappeared from the spot.
In the blink of an eye, it arrived before the constable named Ah Shui.
"Watch out!" Lin Bufan shouted.
The dog demon's attack was extremely fast, and Lin Bufan could only rely on his instincts to swing his longsword!
The broadsword struck the dog demon's claws, and the clash of blade and claws produced a fierce metallic clang!
The dog demon sneered, and its other long arm transformed from a claw into a fist. Then, with lightning speed, it swung it around and smashed it into Lin Bufan's back!
Demons are born with powerful physiques, and this punch carries the force of a thousand pounds!
Even a peak-level martial artist who doesn't reach the highest rank would have their spine broken if they took this punch!
The dog demon roared, displaying extreme arrogance.
In just two moves, it easily toyed with the strongest of the group of constables!
however.
The imagined tearing apart of flesh did not happen.
A hint of doubt appeared in the dog demon's eyes, followed by shock, and then... fear!
The swordsman appeared in front of Lin Bufan at some point and easily blocked the fist with just one hand!
"How...how could you possibly keep up with my speed?!" the dog demon stammered.
Li Qingchen scoffed, "That's it?"
The next second, he suddenly increased his strength, and the palm that was covering the dog's fist exerted force, and a series of crisp cracking sounds suddenly echoed in the courtyard!
"roar!!"
The yellow-haired dog demon let out a heart-wrenching howl; it tried to break free, but it couldn't!
Li Qingchen silently recited the mantra, and the Hunyuan Tianji Technique was rapidly activated. His incomparably powerful internal energy burst forth without reservation! Suddenly, he was pulled backward, and the dog demon, who was more than two meters tall, was helplessly pulled away by a tremendous force.
Then, a fist the size of a sandbag slammed viciously toward the dog demon's head!
The dog demon cried out in terror, "No! You can't!!"
boom! ! !
A dull thud rang out! Thick, reddish-white brain matter splattered all over the floor!
At the same time, the dog demon's painful howls abruptly stopped!
The courtyard suddenly became eerily quiet.
Li Qingchen ignored the horrified looks of the constables.
He casually took the sword from a constable who was staring in disbelief.
He crouched down, cut open the dog demon's belly, and rummaged around inside for a while before his expression turned to disappointment.
"Tsk, so it's just a roadside stall."
