Chapter 269: Saving Han You
In a blink of an eye, another half an hour passed before the city lord opened his eyes. Seeing this, the demon-suppressing guards around him came forward and asked, "Sir, how do you feel?"
"I'm fine now," and then he came to Zhou Chen, bowed to him and said, "Thank you, Brother Zhou, for what I did just now."

"It's all my duty. Thank you for being so polite, Lord Mayor."

At this time, the guards around whispered, "Why thank him? If it weren't for him, the lord wouldn't have been hurt."

"That's right, if it weren't for them, what happened before wouldn't have happened."

Hearing this, the city lord turned around and looked at everyone, and everyone quickly shut their mouths.

Afterwards, the city lord left his official seal on the city wall to stabilize the barrier, and he invited Zhou Chen and Murong Qing into the city lord's mansion.

There were not many guards in the City Lord's Mansion at this time. The reason was that monsters were attacking the city, and all the manpower that could be mobilized had been deployed to the city walls.

After some chatting, Zhou Chen did not disappoint him and brought the Yin-Yang Mirror. The city lord also knew the importance of the Yin-Yang Mirror, so he did not let Zhou Chen take it out. Instead, he took it into a secret room, while Murong Qing stayed outside.

Zhou Chen was not worried about any danger and followed him into the secret room.

After entering, Zhou Chen found a handsome man sitting on the bed in the secret room. Judging from his aura and strength, he had reached the level of half-step third level, and his strength was only higher than that of the monster outside the city.

After some conversation, Zhou Chen learned that this person was none other than Han You, the commander of the Huangshan County Demon Suppression Division, and that he was now poisoned. As for why he was not in the Demon Suppression Division but in his City Lord's Mansion.

Zhou Chen had no interest in this. After chatting, he found out why they wanted to borrow the Yin-Yang Mirror. It turned out that the poison Han You was infected with needed the help of the Xuan Yang Fire in the Yin-Yang Mirror to be completely eliminated.

He was not interested in what kind of poison it was. He immediately took out the Yin-Yang Mirror, injected his internal energy into it and then threw it out. The Yin-Yang Mirror flew over Han You's head.

As a trace of internal force was released, flames immediately flew out from the Yin-Yang Realm and sank into Han You's body the moment they appeared.

The moment the flames entered his body, the toxins in his body were slowly consumed by the flames.

"How is it, Brother Zhou?"
"Okay, it's okay. You'll be healed in three days at most." The city lord then left the secret room, while Zhou Chen continued to stay in the secret room, continuously inputting true energy into the Yin-Yang Mirror.

"Sir, why doesn't Brother Zhou come out?"
"Brother Zhou has his own things to do," Murong Qing did not continue to ask questions after hearing this, but handed the Thunder Chisel to the city lord.

In a blink of an eye, two days had passed. During these two days, the monsters outside the city had been constantly attacking the city. The city lord, who was already injured, had no time to recuperate. His injuries, which were not very serious to begin with, had now turned into serious ones.

At this time, the city lord's face was pale with a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth, and the golden light of the official seal on his head became extremely dim.

Although the barrier on the city is still there, there are many gaps in it, and a large number of monsters are pouring in through the gaps. The top leaders of the Demon Suppression Bureau are now leading their Demon Suppression Guards to resist the monsters.

In the blink of an eye, another half day passed. As the gaps in the barrier increased, the battle became more and more intense, and the casualties increased.

I don't know who started to complain, "Damn it, if he wasn't the guy named Zhou, the lord wouldn't have been hurt, and the barrier wouldn't have been broken."

"Yes, it's because of him. I don't know where he is hiding now. Don't let me see him again, otherwise I will kill him."

"Puff" a mouthful of blood spurted out, and in an instant the barrier in the air began to become illusory.

At this moment, a burly man in official uniform landed behind the city lord. He used his true energy and slapped him on the shoulder. A huge amount of true energy poured into the city lord's body.

After receiving the man's true energy, the city lord's complexion improved slightly. The official seal above his head immediately shone with golden light, and the barrier became more stable.

But it was just a drop in the bucket. As if the losses were too heavy, the beast tide retreated automatically.

The Demon Suppression Division of Huangshan County was the same as the previous Demon Suppression Division of Wu'an County. In addition to the supreme leader, the commander, there were four hall masters under him, who were also Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Black Tortoise and Vermillion Bird. At this time, the four hall masters gathered beside the city lord and helped him to absorb the true energy.

An hour later, the four hall masters withdrew their true energy. The four of them were quite powerful, and their five senses were naturally not weak either. They heard the discussions around them.

It was mostly about Zhou Chen's matter. Others didn't know but they knew everything clearly. However, they had no intention of stopping it.

In the City Lord's Mansion, Zhou Chen slowly took back the Yin-Yang Mirror. At this moment, Han You's complexion had improved a lot. Although the poison in his body had been eliminated, Han You still needed to rest and regulate his breathing for a while.

In the evening, after dinner, Zhou Chen came to the city wall. As soon as he arrived, he noticed a lot of strange looks.

He looked at them and ignored them. As soon as he went up, he ran into Lord Qinglong of the Demon Suppression Division.

After seeing his official uniform, Zhou Chen bowed and said, "I am Zhou Chen, you must be Lord Qinglong."

He only knew that Zhou Chen was from the Demon Suppression Division, but he had no idea what position he held. However, since he was in charge of the Yin-Yang Mirror, he must have a high status.

However, it cannot be ruled out that Zhou Chen is just an ordinary Demon-Suppressing Guard or Demon-Suppressing Envoy who is responsible for escorting the Yin-Yang Mirror.

"I wonder how serious the commander's injuries are?"
"It's nothing serious. You will recover after a few days of rest."

Qinglong was in a high position, so naturally he had a lot of things to do. After chatting for a few words, he left, leaving Zhou Chen alone.

Looking at the tragic situation around him, Zhou Chen sighed, "It seems that the fighting in the past two days was very fierce." Unknowingly, he came to the side of the city lord.

The city lord was recuperating and healing his wounds at the moment, and Zhou Chen did not disturb him. At this moment, the monsters outside the city began to attack the city again.

The soldier in charge of watching immediately blew the horn. The moment he heard the horn, the city lord immediately opened his eyes and mobilized his true energy to strengthen the barrier.

However, the power of the barrier at this time was not as strong as before, and Zhou Chen knew that the barrier might not be able to survive this siege.

The powerful monsters did not take action, perhaps waiting for the barrier to be broken before taking action.

Qinglong and the others knew that the formation could not be broken, so the four hall masters nodded and immediately rushed out of the formation, and at the same time, the four of them threw out a magic weapon at the same time.

Then a killing formation was formed, and murderous intent suddenly erupted in the air, and a large number of monsters were killed with just a wave of the hand.

At the same time, ten powerful monsters with fifth-grade strength stood in the air. Although their strength was generally lower than that of the four hall masters, they had the advantage of numbers. Even if there was a large formation, what could it do? Don’t they have it?

The ten demons immediately made some strange hand gestures, and then a large number of demon beasts below suddenly exploded, and their blood gathered in the air, forming a blood cloud.

The moment the blood cloud formed, an extremely strong murderous intent erupted, and the momentum of Qinglong and the other four weakened in an instant.

The four of them looked at the ten monsters in front of them with serious expressions. Qinglong and the other three raised their hands, and a huge sword condensed above their heads, and shot forward the moment Qinglong waved his hand.

This is their strongest attack, which can injure even a half-step third-grade warrior.

However, this strongest attack was directly blocked by a burst of blood.

"Haha, that's it"?
A huge hand condensed from blood and energy slapped towards Qinglong and the other three. Although they prepared in time, they were unable to resist the bloody hand and were directly slapped away, flying towards the barrier. Seeing this, the city lord immediately opened a gap, and then a big hand caught the four people.
