I Can Devour Spirits

At this moment, the wild fields finally noticed that there were three black arrows in Duan Rong’s arrow tube. The style of these arrows was exactly the same as the ones beside those headless bloody corpses on the street.

Immediately, the wild fields cupped his fists towards Duan Rong and said, ”Our iron cavalry is willing to follow your command, sir!”

In the army, it has always been the strong who commands respect. Whoever has the strongest fists speaks the truth!

”No need to be so polite, Commander Yuan,” Duan Rong said humbly, then abruptly changed his tone, ”Commander Yuan, take your men and surround the County Government Office for me!”

The wild fields was slightly taken aback. ”The County Government Office?”

Duan Rong suddenly pointed to a bloody corpse not far away and said, ”That person is the local County Magistrate, Sun Qian!”

The wild fields looked stunned, noticing the blood threads wriggling on that corpse, clearly indicating a member of the Filthy Blood Sect. This County Magistrate of Xianggu County turned out to be one of them, no wonder they deployed a thousand iron cavalry!

The wild fields cupped his fists and said, ”Yes, sir!”

Just as the wild fields was about to gather his men, Duan Rong said, ”Wait!”

”After surrounding the County Government Office! Yuan Shun Escort Agency, Huaying Building, Weapon Shop, Dye Workshop, Spring Breeze Inn... Wei Yutian’s old residence!”

Duan Rong listed more than ten forces in one breath, almost pointing out all the major forces within the county!

”Surround those places for me too!”

”This...” A trace of hesitation appeared in the wild fields’ eyes.

Duan Rong said, ”These are all strongholds of the Filthy Blood Sect.”

”Sir...” the wild fields seemed to want to say something further.

Duan Rong directly interrupted him, saying, ”Commander Yuan, I know what you’re worried about! I’ll find someone to lead the way for you!”

Duan Rong suddenly turned his head, looking at a certain window on the second floor of the teahouse by the street, where Yang Zhen was still sitting.

”Yang Zhen! Come down!” Duan Rong suddenly shouted.

Upon hearing this, Yang Zhen immediately extended his form and jumped down from the second-floor window of the teahouse.

Yang Zhen walked up to Duan Rong, not too far away, and respectfully cupped his fists towards Duan Rong, saying, ”Sir!”

Duan Rong was slightly stunned; this was the first time Yang Zhen called him that, and he noticed that the defiant look that used to be in Yang Zhen’s eyes was completely gone, replaced with a look of absolute submission.

The look in Yang Zhen’s eyes didn’t make Duan Rong happy; instead, it brought a tinge of loss to his heart.

Duan Rong suppressed his feelings and said to Yang Zhen, ”Yang Zhen, you and Commander Yuan together surround all the places I just mentioned! Until the investigation is over! No one goes out, only in!”

Yang Zhen heard the words and said, ”Yes!”

Duan Rong turned his head and looked at the wild fields again, asking, ”Commander Yuan, are the four city gates sealed?”

The wild fields said, ”My thousand iron cavalry have already taken over the city gates! Rest assured, sir, not even a fly can get out!”

”Good!” Duan Rong said, ”You two go ahead!”

The wild fields and Yang Zhen immediately left.

Duan Rong glanced at Jiang Zhe and the three others, who were pale-faced and performing Qi Circulation to heal by the large pit, then suddenly turned around, seeing Xiao Yu, Ximen Kankan, and a few others standing not far away.

Xiao Yu was holding a round object wrapped in clothes, which was obviously Ruan Fengshan’s head, but no blood seeped through the clothes!

Although Ruan Fengshan knew he was doomed, he used the Filthy Blood Divine Skill until the end, only to be ultimately slain by Xiao Yu. By then, the blood in his body had already been completely depleted due to repeated use of the Filthy Blood Divine Skill.

Duan Rong quickly walked over, first looking at Ximen Kankan, and said, ”Kankan, go to the City God Temple and check if Temple Priest Xu Dongyang is there! He’s also a member of the Filthy Blood Sect!”

”Xu Dongyang?!” Ximen Kankan’s face showed surprise. ”I’ll go now!”

Ximen Kankan said so, then demonstrated his skill and rushed off! Ximen Kankan hadn’t anticipated that Xu Dongyang could also be part of the Filthy Blood Sect! His family had been Temple Priests at the Xianggu City God Temple for three generations!

When Duan Rong shot and killed more than ten Filthy Blood Sect martial artists in the True Qi Realm on the street, he noticed that Xu Dongyang was not among them. Hence, he immediately had Ximen Kankan check it out.

Duan Rong then looked at Xiao Yu and said, ”Xiao Yu, go to Jie Lei’s old residence and, together with Xiaoqi, take Hu Huanhuan to the medical clinic. Her injuries are quite severe and can’t be delayed any longer!”

”Okay!” Xiao Yu replied and then turned to leave.

After Ximen Kankan and Xiao Yu left, Shen Mizi also looked at Duan Rong expectantly, saying, ”What about me? What do I do?”

Duan Rong said, ”Get me something to eat, I’m a bit hungry!”

Shen Mizi glared at him and said, ”Starve, you little beggar! I don’t have time for this!

Duan Rong laughed, looked at Shen Mizi and Liu Shushan, and said, ”The three senior brothers are here healing; you two guard them!”

Hearing Duan Rong’s words, Shen Mizi and Liu Shushan glanced at Jiang Zhe and the others not far away; indeed, the state of the three was quite poor.

After Duan Rong finished speaking, he turned and left.

Seeing Duan Rong about to leave, Shen Mizi immediately shouted at his back, ”Where are you going?”

”To bathe and change clothes. What? Do you want to come with me?” Duan Rong said.

”Pah!” Shen Mizi spat on the ground.

Duan Rong laughed happily and walked away with big strides!

He indeed wanted to take a bath and change clothes! The stuff on his body and face had been stuck for days, and it was really uncomfortable!

Duan Rong walked along the alley to his old residence!

Back in his old residence, Duan Rong drew clear water from the well, wrapped soaproot in a towel, and worked up a lather.

As Duan Rong was washing, a chaotic scene had already begun in Xianggu County city, with distant and close noises faintly reaching him. The wild fields and Yang Zhen had already taken action!

Since this place was set up as a base by Sun Qian, all the remnants of the Filthy Blood Sect here had to be completely rooted out!
