Chapter 249: The Seat of the Vermillion Bird
Seeing the two people’s shocked faces, Zhou Chen waved his hand again and put the corpse into the storage ring.

"Brother Zhou, how strong are you? This is a peak fourth-grade monster, and you killed it so easily?"
"Haha, you will know later. Okay, go back and complete the task." Zhou Chen then took the two people with shocked faces back to Wu'an County.

Only three hours after they left the city, the three of them returned to the Demon Suppression Division again. What happened in the morning had spread throughout the entire Demon Suppression Division. Now, their Team 19 had become completely famous in the Demon Suppression Division.

"Master Leng, didn't you go out on a mission? Why are you back so soon?"
Hearing her colleague's question, Leng Ningshuang simply responded with a few words and went to Qinglong without further explanation. Zhou Chen and Wang Yong went directly back to the courtyard. As for the monster's body, they handed it to Leng Ningshuang before entering the city.

Just when Zhou Chen was instructing Wang Yong in martial arts in the courtyard, a Demon-Suppressing Guard came to them and said, "Brother Wang, go and take a look. Lord Leng is in trouble."

Upon hearing the voice, Wang Yong immediately asked, "Brother, what's going on? Tell me in detail."

"I don't know the details, you should go and have a look for yourselves." After that, he told the two the location of the accident and hurriedly left the yard.

Wang Yong and Zhou Chen rushed over immediately and soon arrived at the scene of the accident. Before they arrived, they heard Leng Ningshuang's angry voice, "Jiang Yufeng, don't go too far."

"What's wrong? Didn't I tell you to just send the things to Baihu Hall? Why are you so stubborn? Anyway, you won't get any less in the reward for the mission."

"Asshole, this is a task assigned by Lord Qinglong. It has nothing to do with your Baihu Hall. Don't go too far."

At this time, the two were surrounded by Demon Suppression Guards. Instead of trying to stop the fight, they stood aside and watched the fun.

Zhou Chen and the other man pushed the crowd aside and squeezed in, "What's going on with Ningshuang?"

After listening to Leng Ningshuang's explanation, Zhou Chen realized that it was Baihu who had taken a fancy to the corpse of the flower demon in their hands and wanted to take it for himself.

Zhou Chen looked at the people from the White Tiger Hall opposite and said, "I'm sorry, everyone. We worked hard to get this thing. You don't have to worry about who to give it to. Go back."

After saying that, he took Leng Ningshuang and the other two and walked towards Qinglong's yard. As a result, Jiang Yufeng said without knowing the consequences, "Hmph, if you don't leave your things here today, don't even think about leaving."

Then the surrounding Demon-Suppressing Guards all spoke up and said, "Yes, give the things to them to avoid trouble."

At this time Zhou Chen also realized that the guys around him were not here to watch the fun, but were clearly in the same group with these guys.

Seeing this, Zhou Chen's eyes turned cold and his icy true energy emanated from him. In an instant, the air around him dropped sharply. The Demon-Suppressing Guards present all shook their bodies and shivered uncontrollably. Now that Zhou Chen's true energy had merged with the two pieces of black ice, the cold air had reached an extreme point that these guys could not resist at all.

If Zhou Chen wanted to, he could kill everyone present on the spot in an instant, but he did not choose to do so. After all, this was the Demon Suppression Division, and he was not yet so presumptuous as to do that.

Soon the three of them came to Qinglong. Leng Ningshuang handed the body of the flower demon to Qinglong. It had been more than three hours since they accepted the mission. Others would definitely be shocked by how fast they completed the task, but Qinglong was not, because he knew that this matter was no big deal for Zhou Chen.

After praising the three people, Qinglong came to Zhou Chen again and patted him on the shoulder, "I never thought that you are so strong now."

Qinglong glanced at Leng Ningshuang and the other two and said, "You can leave first." Zhou Chen found that Qinglong handed the body of the flower demon to an old man. Then he invited Zhou Chen into the living room. Zhou Chen had been to this yard countless times, but he had never entered it. Every time he stood in the yard waiting for Qinglong's instructions.

Qinglong poured Zhou Chen a cup of tea. Zhou Chen quickly stood up and took it, "Sir, there is no need to be so polite. Just tell me if you have anything to say."

I believe you have also noticed that the Demon Suppression Division today is no longer the same as it was two years ago.

"I heard you had some trouble when you came here just now."

"Excuse me for being frank, but I feel that Lord Baihu has crossed the line. First, he stopped us from carrying out the mission, and just now he sent his men over to cause trouble, preventing us from delivering the task. Why don't you care about his actions?"
Qinglong coughed twice and then said, "The commander is in seclusion now. Although I am the top leader of the Demon Suppression Bureau on paper, the strength of my subordinates is far inferior to that of Baihu. In addition, with my current physical condition, if I didn't have the Yin-Yang Mirror in my hand, I'm afraid he would have launched a mutiny long ago."

"Why don't you ask the commander to come forward?"
"To be honest, I haven't seen the commander-in-chief for a year. If my guess is correct, he should have passed away."

"How can it be"?
"Hey, nothing is impossible. If I wasn't afraid of chaos in the Demon Suppression Bureau, I would have broken into the secret room and checked it out long ago."

"Xiaochen, I want you to take the position of Suzaku. What do you think?"
"What, sir, please don't joke with me, I can't do it."

"Now you are the only one in the Demon Suppression Bureau who has this ability. I really can't find anyone else except you. The empire is in danger now, and it is basically impossible to send more people over."

Zhou Chen just wanted to be a small demon-suppressing guard here quietly and never thought about becoming a hall master.

You don't have to reject me in a hurry. I can give you time to consider it. Now that Suzaku is dead, Suzaku Hall has temporarily fallen into Baihu's hands. This is the reason why he dares to be so presumptuous now. As he said this, he began to cough violently.

Seeing this, Zhou Chen immediately used his magical power to rejuvenate him. In an instant, a huge vitality penetrated through his right hand and enveloped Qinglong's entire body. Feeling the strangeness in his body, Qinglong felt much more comfortable.

But that's all, it didn't have much effect on his injuries. Rejuvenation was only a seventh-grade magical power, which had little effect on Qinglong.

Ten minutes later, the vitality disappeared. "Sir, what happened to your injury?"
"Forget it, let's not talk about it." At this time, Zhou Chen saw Baihu walking into the yard, and Qinglong also noticed his arrival. "Think about that matter carefully, okay, let's go."

Zhou Chen stood up, saluted, and then walked out of the yard. When he came to Baihu, he bowed and saluted. Then, without waiting for him to speak, Zhou Chen left the yard directly.

Baihu's cultivation level is only at the peak of the fourth rank, and Zhou Chen doesn't take him seriously at all. This is only in the Demon Suppression Division. If he dares to provoke him outside the Demon Suppression Division, Zhou Chen will not be afraid of him.

Seeing Zhou Chen's attitude, Baihu was angry in his heart, but he did not show it in front of Qinglong. He just glanced at his back and turned into the living room.

Without waiting for Qinglong to speak, Baihu sat directly on the chair and said, "Sir, the old monster Zhentian outside the city has been restless again recently."

Zhou Chen went all the way back to the yard of Team 19. Seeing Zhou Chen coming back, Leng Ningshuang stepped forward and said, "Brother Zhou, we earned 1,500 merit points for this mission. Wang Yong and I have agreed that you take 1,000 and we can split the remaining 500 equally between the two of us."
