Chapter 837 Fury
Fortunately, the oppressive atmosphere did not last long, and the commander finally showed up.
Seeing the commander from a distance, all the guards subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.
If the commander-in-chief didn't come, they were really afraid that the two deputy commanders would start fighting.
Shan Xia straightened his body, walked quickly in front of everyone, and bowed his head respectfully.
"Welcome Master Ji Xin."
Ji Xin was a man with a snake's tail. With a flick of the snake's tail, he came in front of everyone.
He glanced at Shan Xia and the others, and paused slightly when he saw the only new face present and the silver badge she was wearing.
When Shan Xia raised his head, he happened to see this scene and quickly said what he had prepared.
"Sir, she is the demon cultivator I mentioned before, who killed Shuangluo and replaced her."
After saying this, Shan Xia glared at Xu Chunniang.
"Your Majesty, why don't you say hello when you are here? Could it be that you don't take the Commander seriously at all?"
"Of course I don't dare."
Xu Chunniang finally moved, took a few steps in the direction of Ji Xin, lowered her head and showed a meek posture.
"Welcome, sir."
Ji Xin glanced at Xu Chunniang, her face showing no emotion or anger, "What's your name?"
"Xu Chunniang."
"Did you kill Shuangluo?"
"He wanted to kill me, so I had no choice but to kill him to protect myself."
Ji Xin frowned, feeling a little worried.
The female cultivator seemed respectful, but her words showed no fear of him.
His tone was slightly cold, "I heard that after you killed Shuang Luo, you took the position of deputy commander, but you have been staying in seclusion and never been on duty for a day?"
Before Xu Chunniang could answer, Shan Xia on the side explained "empathetically".
"Sir, she has not been on duty for eight days in a row. She was injured while fighting Shuangluo and is recovering at home."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Xin's face turned cold.
Demons have amazing recovery power. Even if they recover from injuries, they won't last that long.
The so-called recuperation is just an excuse.
Shan Xia observed the words and continued to add jealousy, "Fellow Daoist Xu has not been on duty for so long. I must have your approval, right?"
Ji Xin's expression became even more sinister. He was the commander of the East City Gate, and the two deputy commanders were his direct subordinates.
After Xu Chunniang kills Shuangluo, she must report to him immediately.
But it wasn't until three days ago that he received a message from Shan Xia and learned about Shuang Luo's death.
From this it can be seen that this woman did not take him as the commander seriously at all!
Seeing the ugly look on the commander's face, the scorpion woman had a bad intuition.
Obviously, this matter was clearly mentioned in the bone fragment she handed over to the Lord that day.
Could it be that you, sir, have been busy cultivating these days and have forgotten about it?
In an instant, several thoughts flashed through the scorpion woman's mind.
If Mr. Xu dies, I'm afraid she won't survive either!
Finally, she gritted her teeth and took a step forward, kneeling on the ground.
"Your Majesty, Master Xu once handed over this matter to me and asked me to report it to you. It was me who was confused and missed this matter."
Without even looking at the scorpion woman, Ji Xin waved out a stream of devilish energy with a flick of his sleeves, "Get out!"
The scorpion woman was hit by the demonic energy, and her body flew out heavily. She landed on the yellow sand about 70 to 80 feet away and fainted.
Xu Chunniang glanced in the direction of Granny Scorpion, and then she looked away when she realized that she was still alive.
She looked at Ji Xin, the impatience in her eyes not even bothering to hide.
"Lord Commander, do you have any dissatisfaction with me?"
Hearing this disrespectful remark, Shan Xia almost couldn't hold back her laughter.
If Xu Chunniang kowtowed and begged for mercy, there might be a glimmer of hope.
But she repeatedly challenged Lord Ji Xin's majesty and patience, and was undoubtedly seeking death.
In vain, he still regarded this woman as a strong rival. It seems that it is no longer necessary.
Ji Xin was so angry that he laughed. Originally, he thought that the person who could kill Shuang Luo had some strength.
If the other party is interested, he will give a small punishment and the matter will be over.
But her repeated offenses had already angered him.
Ji Xin's body slowly soared into the air, and a bow suddenly appeared in his hand. He looked at Xu Chunniang's eyes with indifference.
The bow in his hand has a faint red color and is called the Moon Bow. When fully drawn, it resembles a full moon and can even activate the power of the moonlight.
It is daytime now, there is no moon in the sky, and the power of the moon-drawing bow has weakened somewhat.
However, using this bow to kill a monk in the transformation stage is more than enough.
Seeing Master Ji Xin even take out the moon bow, Shan Xia's eyes flashed with joy, and a big stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.
As early as when he learned that Shuangluo had been killed, he was panicked.
He and Shuang Luo are equally powerful. If the other party can kill Shuang Luo, he will definitely be able to kill him.
After meeting today and realizing that her cultivation level had increased again, the sense of crisis in his heart reached its extreme.
Fortunately, he had started to make arrangements a few days ago, while inquiring about her information and making suggestions to the commander.
When she dies, he no longer has to worry about his own safety!
Shan Xia withdrew a little further, and together with other city guards, watched the battle from a distance, fearing that the remaining power of the Moon-drawing Bow would be affected.
The incident at the city gate also attracted many monks near the city gate.
They watched from a distance and recognized Master Ji Xin and the Moon Bow in his hand.
Ji Xin held the bow in his left hand, and the demonic energy continuously overflowing from his right hand slowly condensed into an arrow.
He opened his bow, nocked the arrow, and slowly pulled the bowstring.
As he moved, the bowstring was pulled fuller and fuller.
Xu Chunniang, on the other hand, never moved from beginning to end, watching the other party's movements with a smile.
The demon cultivators who were watching were confused and began to discuss in low voices.
"How could she laugh when she was about to die?"
"Why doesn't she hide? Could it be that she thinks that even if she hides, she won't be able to hide?"
"Who knows, if you dare to anger Master Ji Xin, you can die happily, which is the best ending."
The bowstring was fully drawn, and the magic arrow locked onto Xu Chunniang's figure, roaring towards her.
Xu Chunniang finally moved.
She raised her hand and threw an alchemy furnace casually.
The alchemy furnace suddenly enlarged, stopped in front of her, and met the arrow.
"Bang!"
The magic arrow hit the alchemy furnace right in the middle, causing the alchemy furnace to roar.
The two were in a stalemate for a moment, and the magic energy on the magic arrow was exhausted and dissipated helplessly.
But the alchemy furnace was unscathed.
Xu Chunniang was not surprised by this result.
This alchemy furnace is a seventh-level treasure that can block even Netherworld Fire, so it would be effortless to stop this arrow.
The scheming is just a demon cultivator in the early stage of cultivating the void. Other cultivators in the divine transformation stage are afraid of him, but she is not afraid of him.
Seeing that the alchemy furnace she took out actually withstood Master Ji Xin's moon-drawing bow, the demon cultivators who were watching opened their eyes in disbelief.
"What is the origin of that alchemy furnace? It actually blocked Master Jixin's arrow!"
"The Moon-Walling Bow is a sixth-level low-grade treasure. The grade of this alchemy furnace is probably above that of the Moon-Walling Bow!"
"If I had such a valuable treasure and it was too late to hide it, how could I show it to others at will?"
The eyes of the demon cultivators looking at the alchemy furnace were filled with greed and passion.
It's a pity that the scheming adults are here, and such benefits are not available to them at all.
