Chapter 251: Serving as Suzaku
Qinglong was seriously injured at this moment and had no strength to fight anymore. The Demon King Zhentian looked at Qinglong lying on the ground and grinned, "Humph, I didn't expect that your two colleagues would abandon you and run away alone."

As he said this, he was about to step forward and slap Qinglong to death with a palm, but at this moment a crack in the void appeared behind the Zhentian Demon King.

"My king, be careful." Demon King Zhentian was the first to notice the abnormality behind him. The moment he turned around, a sword light flew out from the crack and directly forced Demon King Zhentian and his men out of the room.

Qinglong, who originally thought he was dead, looked at the crack in the void in surprise, "Sir, are you here?"
He originally thought that it was Zhen Nantian who came, but what he didn't expect was that the person who came out was Zhou Chen.

"Why are you here? Didn't I ask you to stay in the Demon Suppression Division? Go away and don't worry about me."

The Demon King Zhentian looked at Zhou Chen in the room and asked in surprise, "Why is it you here? Haven't you been taken away by me?"

Zhou Chen sneered and said, “Huh, you didn’t expect that I could come back alive.”

As he was speaking, countless monsters had surrounded the place. "Humph, even if you can come back alive, so what? If I hadn't been seriously injured that day, you would have died long ago. You won't be so lucky today."

As he said this, he waved his hand and the surrounding fourth-grade monsters rushed directly towards Zhou Chen and the others. Seeing this, Qinglong, who was lying on the ground, immediately took out a pill from his storage ring and swallowed it.

The moment the pill entered his stomach, Qinglong's aura surged, and he immediately stood up from the ground, already suffering from a heavy blow.

"Xiaochen, I'll stop him, you hurry up and leave."

The Demon King Zhentian looked at Qinglong and laughed, "Hmph, neither of you can escape today." Zhou Chen directly grabbed Qinglong who was about to take action and said, "My lord, you have worked hard. Leave this to me."

Afterwards, Zhou Chen's body was filled with icy sword energy. Although he had no sword in his hand, with a wave of his hand, a huge icy sword energy shot out and directly killed the many fourth-grade monsters that rushed up.

Then the sword energy continued to fly towards the Demon King Zhentian with undiminished power.

The Demon King Zhentian was shocked after seeing the power of this sword. He immediately mobilized the demonic power in his body to resist. Although he blocked the attack, he was also extremely embarrassed.

"Good boy, I didn't expect that your strength has improved to this extent after not seeing you for a few years."

Zhou Chen snorted coldly, "Hmph, prepare to die." Then Zhou Chen took two steps forward and activated his magical power, Holy Light Judgment. Immediately, a huge magic circle appeared under the feet of Demon King Zhentian. The size of the magic circle was ten meters.

Before he could react, he saw countless ice spears flying out from the void above his head and shooting towards the Demon King Zhentian below. Even if he used his demonic power to resist in time, he could not stop the attack of these ice spears. His defense was broken the moment they made contact.

His body was directly pierced by the ice spear. Although the Holy Light Judgment only appeared for a short ten seconds, it had already attacked dozens of times in succession. The Demon King Zhentian was killed on the spot.

However, what Zhou Chen did not expect was that after killing the Demon King Zhentian, he did not obtain the demon pattern. This means that the one who died just now was not the Demon King Zhentian, or not his original body, but just an incarnation.

Seeing that the Demon King Zhentian was dead, his many subordinates immediately fled out of the yard. Zhou Chen did not go forward to chase them, but took Qinglong and tore through the void and left.

When the two appeared again, they had returned to the Demon Suppression Division. Looking at the familiar environment around him, Qinglong discovered that this was actually his room.

Before he could be shocked and start coughing violently again, Zhou Chen quickly helped him lie down on the bed, then activated his rejuvenation method to heal him. Twenty minutes later, seeing Qinglong's complexion gradually improving, Zhou Chen covered him with a quilt and quietly left the room.

Zhou Chen did not go home that night, but rested in the Demon Suppression Division. Leng Ningshuang had already left, and Wang Yong was staying in the Demon Suppression Division.

"Master, you are back."

"Well, did anything happen while I was away?"
"The Demon Suppression Division is relatively normal today, and nothing major has happened."

Zhou Chen nodded and then sat cross-legged on the bed to start practicing. While practicing, Zhou Chen opened his spiritual exploration, and the entire Demon Suppression Division appeared in his mind. Now the three hall masters, Qinglong was seriously injured, and Baihu and Xuanwu were still unknown whether they could escape from somewhere. Now can be said to be the most vulnerable time for the Demon Suppression Division, and he must always be vigilant.

During this time, Zhou Chen also looked towards the place where Zhen Nantian was in seclusion, and found that there was a large formation guarding outside Zhen Nantian's room, and his spiritual exploration could not penetrate at all.

Two hours later, Zhou Chen discovered that Baihu and Xuanwu had returned, and they seemed to be in good condition, not like they had just been through a big battle.

Under Zhou Chen's observation, he found that Baihu and Xuanwu were actually walking towards Qinglong's room.

Seeing this, Zhou Chen immediately stopped his cultivation and stood up and walked towards Qinglong.

With a creak, Qinglong's door opened. Qinglong was now seriously injured and had fallen into a deep sleep, so he did not hear the sound of the door opening.

Baihu and the other two were fourth-grade warriors, and the effect of the night on their vision was almost zero. The moment they entered, they saw Qinglong lying on the bed and resting.

The two looked at Qinglong in disbelief, and at the same time reached out and rubbed their eyes, as if they couldn't believe what they saw.

After walking closer to confirm, the two looked at each other in shock, "How is this possible?" You know, they both rushed back without stopping after they left.

Not to mention that Qinglong was seriously injured, it would be impossible for him to escape just with the presence of the old demon Zhentian.

"His breathing is disordered now. Since the old demon Zhentian failed to kill him, how about us..." When Baihu said this, he made a gesture of wiping his neck.

However, at this moment, Qinglong's tightly closed eyes suddenly opened. Seeing this, the three of them were shocked, but they were all powerful people in high positions and did not do anything extreme.

"Why are you here?" Qinglong said lightly.

Baihu's head turned quickly, "Let's see how serious your injuries are, sir."

"Oh, so that's how it is. I'm fine and you can go."

Then the two of them left as if nothing had happened. After they left, Zhou Chen walked in quietly.

"My lord, those two seemed unfriendly to you just now."

"Of course I know this, but now the two of them are in special positions and cannot be moved for the time being, otherwise there will be trouble."

Then Qinglong looked at Zhou Chen again and asked, "What do you think about that matter?"
Zhou Chen knew what he was talking about, nodded and said, "Okay, sir, I promise to take over Suzaku's position temporarily, but if there is a suitable candidate in the future, I will resign from the position of Suzaku."

Qinglong smiled and said, "This is fine."

Qinglong then handed the official seal of Suzaku to Zhou Chen and said, "Now that you are Lord Suzaku of the Demon Suppression Bureau, you can practice the martial arts techniques in the library at will. As long as you can learn it, you can learn whatever you want."

Zhou Chen was overjoyed when he got the news, because Zhou Chen discovered that the demon patterns above the third grade no longer gave him magical powers, but instead improved his own strength. Now he had a third-grade legendary demon pattern on his body.

狐纹胸部+11三品传说功力+200+114，实力提升50%+60%复制武技御剑诀。

The third-grade legend increased his attack power by 50%, while the enhancement of eleven increased his attack power by another 60%.
