Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start

Chapter 110: Chapter 104: Jing Tian Department Takes Action (Three more ten thousand words, asking for subscription!)_1

In the grand hall of Jing Tian Department, Chen Yu, dressed in a tight-fitting suit and donning a large cloak, sat at the top with a stern expression on his face.

Upon seeing Chen Yu's appearance, Gu Chen and the other two were suddenly taken aback.

Song Yu asked, "Sir, what's going on?"

Chen Yu's face was solemn as he said in a cold voice, "Red Flame Demon Sect is audacious enough to slaughter the population of five cities in Da Xia, leaving hundreds of thousands of casualties. This is as good as declaring war against Da Xia. The court, including the higher-ups of Jing Tian Department, was outraged.

After discussing overnight, we received a strict order to immediately head to Xu'an County to crusade against the Red Flame Demon Sect. I volunteered to lead this mission in front of the deputy commander, and I will be in charge this time."

Red Flame Demon Sect, one of the most powerful of the six demonic sects under Six Union God Sect, is notorious for its disciples' cruelty, brutality, and recklessness, as well as for its formidable strength, making them even more detestable than the Evil Heart Sect.

In the past, wherever Red Flame Demon Sect went, not much was left alive—almost to the point of no grass growing.

At the height of Six Union God Sect's power, the Red Flame Demon Sect was like a sharp blade in its hands, instilling fear in countless people across the land.

After slaughtering the cities, they arrogantly left their mark and executed thunderous actions overnight, eliminating the governor of Xu'an County. Such audacious acts were very much in line with the Red Flame Demon Sect's style of behavior back in the day.

If it hadn't been for the adequately strong defense forces in the city of Xu'an County, it is quite possible that the Red Flame Demon Sect would not have spared the entire county city.

When news of this spread, it caused a huge commotion not only in Da Xia but across all of the Nine Provinces. Since the current Summer Emperor's ascent to the throne, such an incident had never occurred.

Now, the whole of Xu'an County has been plunged into panic.

Such arrogant and unrestrained behavior naturally incited the wrath of Da Xia. King Huai also summoned the deputy commander of Jing Tian Department overnight to discuss countermeasures. Ultimately, Chen Yu took the initiative and volunteered to lead the enforcers of Jing Tian Department to Xu'an County to crusade against the Red Flame Demon Sect.

This time, even if we cannot completely eradicate the entire Red Flame Demon Sect, we must annihilate all demonic forces within Xu'an County, demonstrating to Six Union God Sect and the entire Nine Provinces Da Xia's stance.

Of course, Jing Tian Department wouldn't mind uprooting the Red Flame Demon Sect completely, but Six Union God Sect has been accumulating power in secret for a long time, daring to commit such an act, they must have also prepared thoroughly to face the enraged Da Xia.

However, no matter what, this time, Chen Yu will not withdraw until the demonic sect is severely crippled.

"This time, accompanying us to Xu'an County will also be some individuals from the Martial Training Hall," said Chen Yu.

"Martial Training Hall?" Song Yu and Wang Yan frowned upon hearing this.

The Martial Training Hall was initially established by the Great Ancestor specifically to cultivate a variety of talents for Da Xia, ensuring a continuous influx of fresh blood, both to strengthen the military and provide opportunities for commoners and the children of humble families to contribute to Da Xia.

Those who performed excellently either stayed in Tiandu or were sent to serve in various prefectures or even at the borders.

In the beginning, the Martial Training Hall indeed cultivated many talents for Da Xia. However, after hundreds of years of development, its insides have become mostly made up of offspring of Da Xia's military and noble families, with few children from humble families being able to rise or stand out.

In essence, the current Martial Training Hall has become a place where the descendants of military and noble families are gilded, having lost the original purpose of its establishment.

Originally, before the Holy Emperor went into seclusion, there was an intention to rectify the ethos of the Martial Training Hall, and at the beginning, some progress was made. However, as the Human Emperor went into seclusion, the Martial Training Hall reverted to its former state.

With the various interconnected relationships, even King Huai found it troublesome, and with the external threats from demons and chaos in the world, Da Xia has yet to devote the effort to completely settle the Martial Training Hall.

Song Yu snorted coldly and said, "Such a dangerous task, and the privileged military and noble families are willing to let their heirs go risk their heads and shed their blood? Can they really rest easy about this?"

Chen Yu explained, "This expedition is an idea put forth by the legitimate son of Marquis of Pingxi, Cao Zhen. He felt that the Martial Training Hall has been too safe all this time, with its members barely having left Tiandu or seen the outside world. Listening with ears alone is useless.

He suggested to King Huai that the people from Martial Training Hall should also join this mission, so that these descendants of the military and noble families can understand the current state of the world."

Gu Chen's eyebrows lifted slightly, not expecting Cao Zhen to have such a broad perspective. With him saying so, King Huai naturally wouldn't disagree.

"But if they treat this mission as a sightseeing trip, wouldn't we have to divide our attention to protect them?" Song Yu furrowed his brows.

He had witnessed how terrifying the demons mingled with demonic martial artists could be. The mission was already daunting, which was why Chen Yu, a commanding officer, was appointed to lead the campaign.

Now, with these additional burdens, the mission had become even more challenging.

Chen Yu said indifferently, "No matter, we just need to do what we must. Whether they are here to gild themselves or whatever, it has nothing to do with us. I've already discussed this with the deputy commander and King Huai before departure."

Gu Chen and the others nodded. This was somewhat acceptable; otherwise, if they had to fight demonic martial artists while protecting those useless individuals, they wouldn't be able to handle it.

"That's our leader for you, talking tough as ever," laughed Song Yu. Stay connected via m-v l|e'-NovelBin.net
