Chapter Twenty: To Not Move, Don't Move

rovince.Two places of sealing.But the Demon Sealing Tower mainly seals demons, while the Demon Suppression Prison seals primarily on bizarre entities. Only the fourth and fifth layers have demons, but...The lines have already been redrawn here.

When Shen Changqing and Wei Lan arrived, the guards there discovered their presence.

"This is a heavily guarded area, outsiders are not permitted!"

The sentry atop the tower, upon spotting the approaching figures, immediately sent a signal. Someone then came forward and stopped the two men in their tracks.

The two dismounted.

>

Shen Changqing showed his identity token.

"I am Shen Changqing, a member of the Demon Suppression Division. Who is currently in command of the Xiaoqiu Mountain defense line"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

When that person heard the name of the Demon Suppression Division, their mind trembled. When they saw the word "Second Heaven" written on the token, their face changed drastically.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The Exorcist of the First Layer.

That was an extremely noble status, not something that ordinary people could afford to offend.

Respectfully returning the token, the man did not even glance at Wai Lan's identification card. He simply bowed his head in a gesture of respect.

"Greetings, esteemed lords. The defenses here are currently under the command of Zhang Hongyuan, Lord Zhang. Please follow me!"

That's it.

He simply shifted his stance, and Shen Changqing, along with Wei Lan, walked towards the inside.

"Sanitation officer, have you ever heard of Zhang Hongyuan's name"

>

"... not quite sure."

Wai Lan shook her head slightly, then explained further.

“If it were the Imperial Demon Suppression Office, I could understand. But there are so many powerful people in the various local Demon Suppression Offices, it's impossible for everyone to be well-known.”

...unless he could have a reputation like Shen Chumo, who was well-known in the martial arts world.

In the course of conversation.

She had a slight smile on her face.

After spending some time together, Shen Changqing gave Wei Lan a feeling that was somewhat elusive.

Upon hearing this.

Shen Changqing merely smiled, as if brushing the topic aside.

Let me know if you'd like me to translate other text!

His mind was more focused on the area around Xiaochushan.

Although the battle ended some time ago, the metallic scent of blood still lingered.

in the air.

There is still some blood residue.

Besides.

... it still carries a faint trace of evil energy, not completely dissipated.

"Even after several days, the sinister aura hadn't completely dissipated, causing the demons that initiated the fight to be quite powerful." Shen Changqing said in a deep voice.

He looked up and glanced at the sky. The sun was blazing high in the heavens now.

A few days.

The blazing sun shone once again.

Even so, it was impossible to dispel all the sinister and eerie aura completely. It was already quite apparent.

Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!

Wei Lan also sensed it carefully and then nodded: "The sinister aura hasn't dissipated, not after so many days. The demon who made the move is at least a mid-stage Sha level."

It's a pity that the trace of their presence has dissipated too much now, and there's no way to know how many demons were involved.

From the time events occurred on Xiaoqiu Mountain to when the Demon Suppression Division reacted, there was a considerable amount of time in between.

The first batch of powerful demon slayers who arrived here were definitely not just these two.

But.

Those people were unable to fully reconstruct the truth of the matter. As newcomers, they couldn't know too much either.

During the conversation.

Under the guidance of a soldier, they arrived at the front of a tent.

"Please wait a moment, I will go and report."

After saying something, the man plunged into the tent.

Very soon.

The tent curtain was lifted, and a man of about fifty with graying hair walked out. Behind him were the original soldiers.

"I am Zhang Hongyuan, from the Demon Division of Lingcheng Town, Guangyuan Prefecture. Are you Shen Changqing, Master Shen"

Please note that ">" was an empty string in its original form. I've kept the HTML tags as you requested and added nothing else. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

“I do not dare to accept the title of 'Master'. My name is Shen Changqing. I have met Zhang Chumo!”

Shen Changqing bowed in return.

In terms of social status, the two are actually on par with each other.

If you were to be really nitpicky, the people in the Capital Demon Suppression Division would have a higher status than those in other Demon Suppression Divisions.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Zhang Hongyuan's attitude is now courteous, which is also understandable.

When speaking.

Shen Changqing also directly presented his identity token. This was a normal procedure, and there was no way to avoid it.

Zhang Hongyuan smiled and took the medal, but when he saw the small line of text below the medal, his pupils contracted.

Attentive Pavilion!

The name "Pò Xīn Gé" is not something everyone can hear. However, any exorcist at the ground level knows about its existence very clearly.

Only then did he realize that those who entered the Qinshen Pavilion held a status far higher than ordinary exorcists.

"Never would Zhang have expected Lord Shen to be a member of the Qianshen Pavilion! Zhang is deeply disrespectful!"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Zhang Hongyuan originally also wanted to be called "Demon Slayer", but after seeing Shen Changqing enter the Silent Heart Pavilion, he changed back to his original name.

The Pinyin Pavilion is the lifeblood of all martial artists.

It contains countless top-tier martial arts and resources that masters dream of.

Offend those who are dedicated to the Secret Pavilion.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

If the other party uses some means, they can prevent themselves from ever entering the Pinsen Pavilion again.

Please note: I've only translated the text within the > tags as requested. I haven't touched the HTML tags themselves. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Therefore.

He didn't dare to be disrespectful to Shen Changqing at all.

That's all I have to say.

Only then did Zhang Hongyuan's gaze fall on Wei Lan. In an instant, a flash of astonishment crossed his eyes, but it quickly returned to normal.

Though the person in front of me is beautiful, I'm not a young man anymore.

Some aspects.

I'm not as young as the youngsters anymore.

Moreover, since the other party came with Shen Changqing, it goes without saying that they are from the capital city.

>

"May I ask who this is"

"Town Demon Division, Wei Lan!"

Wai Lan's voice was somewhat cold. She gave a simple self-introduction, and then, like Shen Changqing, she displayed her identity token.

I took two glances.

Zhang Hongyuan didn't find anything wrong, so he handed the token back.

"Since you have traveled far, please come inside and have a seat."

Inside the tent, there was no excessive decoration. There was just a bed and a few tables and chairs.

After a few people had settled into their seats.

Zhang Hongyuan asked in a deep voice, "Zhang Mo won't beat around the bush either. I want to ask, what brings the two of you here from the Demon Suppression Division"

"We are here because of the natural disaster in Xiaqiu Mountain."

Shen Changqing was also straight to the point.

Zhang Hongyuan nodded. "I see."

When he saw Shen Changqing and the other, some ideas popped into his mind.

After all, Xiaqiu Mountain doesn't need much of anything. Guangyuan Mansion sent people to Lingcheng and then made me stay here. Logically speaking, there should be no need to send anyone else over.

Now Shen Changqing and the other person have arrived, and they came from the capital.

Its purpose.

It's definitely more than just helping to guard the place.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"I would like to ask Zhang Chumo, what exactly happened in the battle at Xiaoqiu Mountain"

Then Shen Changqing continued to ask.

Upon hearing this.

>

Zhang Hongyuan shook his head: "What exactly happened on Xiaqiu Mountain, Zhang doesn't dare to be certain. It's just that all the garrison soldiers on Xiaqiu Mountain, as well as the two grandmasters in charge, have fallen."

There were also some remnants of demons and monsters on the spot, as for the rest, who knows.

"What about that natural disaster"

“There have been no unusual signs of natural disasters recently, and we dare not get too close.”

This is a placeholder for content that has been removed. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Upon hearing Zhang Hongyuan's words, Shen Changqing and Wei Lan exchanged glances, both knowing what the other was thinking.

Here is the translation:

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Natural disasters are perilous.

It's natural for the other party to not get too close.

Zhang Hongyuan paused for a moment, then continued, "But the power of that disaster this time is much stronger than before. According to the news, at first when the disaster appeared, it needed to be combined with nightfall and rainy days."

Now, as long as it's almost nightfall, disasters will appear in the disaster area.

If Shen was to deal with a natural disaster, he'd have to be more careful.

Thank you for reminding me.

>

Natural disasters are becoming more powerful, which is bad news.

The power of natural disasters is increasing, and it's an unstoppable force. Setting up defenses now isn't about completely stopping the growth of natural disasters, it's just about delaying them for a while.

Zhang Hongyuan said, "Since both of you have your plans, Zhang cannot interfere too much. Nowadays, Xiaqiu Mountain is remote and there's not much to see. There are only some tents for people to rest in."

If you two don't mind, I'll have someone take you to rest.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"Having traveled a long way from the capital, I'm sure you must be quite tired."

Thank you.

Shen Changqing replied, but Wei Lan simply nodded in agreement.

Left the camp.

Zhang Hongyuan called over someone and had them take Shen Changqing and the other person to rest. At the same time, their mounts had already been taken down for feeding.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

In front of a tent.

The soldier said, "Sir Shen, this is your resting place. If you need anything, just speak."

"Okay."

Shen Changqing looked at the tent in front of him and didn't pick on it too much.

Anyway, it's just a temporary place to stay. Whether it's good or bad, it's all the same.

Subsequently.

The soldier arranged accommodation for Wai Lan again.

Perhaps Zhang Hongyuan had special instructions, for the place where they lived was very close together.

I went in.

The tent was bare, with nothing inside except a bed for resting.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Shen Changqing didn't mind. He sat cross-legged on the bed, began to close his eyes and meditate.

>

It took several days of travel.

For him, it was also a considerable loss.

Although master-level strong individuals possess formidable self-recovery capabilities, it is impossible to achieve a complete and total recovery.

And.

Shen Changqing had already prepared himself, ready to enter Xiaochushan tonight.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

That's it.

He must keep himself in a state of absolute peak performance.

Otherwise.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

If Shen Changqing were to truly fight Mo Zi Jin, he wouldn't be too confident of victory.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

From what Zhang Hongyuan said, that natural disaster was no longer as simple as the one he had encountered at first.

Here is the translation of your content:

For such a long time.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Mo Zijin's strength has become even more terrifying.

Even though his current strength has greatly increased, he still holds great trepidation towards the immortal natural disasters.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

“If you can avoid using your hands, it’s best not to!”

Shen Changqing pondered.

If you are not killed by a natural disaster, it means that you cannot get killing points from the other party right now. In this case, even if you fight to death, it will be in vain.

Time flies.

As the sun sets and darkness is about to envelop the land.

Shen Changqing, sitting cross-legged on the bed, just opened his eyes.

>

Put on your shoes and socks.

He walked out of the tent.

Outside.

Without her knowing, she had already been waiting there.

“Shen Chumo has arrived.”

"Sanitation worker."

Let me know if you have more text you'd like me to translate!

Shen Changqing nodded, he turned his head to look at the small hill inside, and could see faint lights. this.A demon slayer's face was grave: "Is the message from the barbarians really accurate What if it's not If we act rashly, we could be in big trouble. After all, a mature Tian Kui is about as power...
