Chapter 229 You're a Crow Mouth
Five days passed in a flash.

Chen Xian originally planned to go to the Chiyang Sword Sect to investigate the theft of Mu Wanchen's body, but the population disappearance in Shiling County was also quite serious, so he had to go to Shiling County first.

The head of Shiling County's Demon Suppression Department is none other than the black-clothed Wanhu, who has the strength to reach the perfect level of Spirit Infant Realm and his name is Feng Kuan.

"My humble servant Feng Kuan is here to meet Lord Chen." Feng Kuan is a man in his forties with an ordinary face.

Chen Xian glanced at Feng Kuan and asked, "Did you catch the demon?"

Feng Kuan's face was solemn. "Yes, sir, but the city lord...!"

"Say!"

"I have repeatedly asked the city lord to ask the city guards to cooperate, and if action is not possible, to use the military force. However, the city lord agreed verbally but never took any action." Feng Kuan said in a deep voice.

As the city lord, Zhang Pingshan was always targeting him secretly. Now that there was such a big problem as the demon infestation, Zhang Pingshan was actually irresponsible. He agreed on the surface but did nothing behind the scenes.

He knew that there was a conflict between Chen Xian and Zhang Pingshan, so he took this opportunity to investigate and prosecute Zhang Pingshan.

Chen Xian had a blank expression on his face. He scanned the area with his eyes and found that Zhang Pingshan was drinking with someone in the City Lord's Mansion. The person drinking was the patriarch of two martial arts families in Shiling County, and was also a powerful Tiangang realm expert.

One of them was named Sun and the other one was carrying luggage.

However, Zhang Pingshan is only at the Spirit Infant Perfection Stage.

A hint of coldness flashed across Chen Xian's eyes. The head of the Xinsun family should be the Sun Congxian family whom he had killed. He didn't expect that there was a Tiangang strongman among them.

He immediately looked at Peng Dazhuang and said, "Bring Zhang Pingshan here!"

"Yes, sir!" Peng Dazhuang nodded and immediately led his men to the City Lord's Mansion.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Peng Dazhuang appeared in the Demon-Suppressing Hall carrying Zhang Pingshan, and also came with him the heads of the Sun and Li families.

"Chen Xian, you dare to have people arrest this city lord? Do you have the arrest warrant?" When Zhang Pingshan saw Chen Xian, he was also extremely jealous as if they were enemies meeting.

Chen Xian not only killed his son, but also killed his younger brother Zhang Pingyang and nephew Zhang Junyu.

He has always kept this grudge in his heart.

Chen Xian glanced at him coldly: "Shiling County is in such a serious situation with demons, and you still have the heart to drink with them?"

Zhang Pingshan said angrily, "I am discussing with the two family heads how to resist the monster plague. Is that not okay?"

"Oh?"

Chen Xian nodded calmly: "So how do you guys discuss this?"

At this time, the old man with a slightly dark complexion and gray beard said, "My name is Sun Xingwang, nice to meet you, Master Chen..."

Chen Xian glanced and said, "Did I ask you to speak?"

Sun Xingwang was slightly stunned, turned his head away and stood aside, but he felt extremely unhappy.

He also remembered the fact that Chen Xian had beaten his grandson severely. However, because Chen Xian was in the limelight, he did not dare to find anyone to deal with Chen Xian. He did not expect Chen Xian to be so arrogant.

Zhang Pingshan said angrily, "Tonight I will lead the City Guards and the military camp, with the help of the Sun and Li families, to cooperate with the Demon Suppression Division to suppress the demon plague."

Chen Xian nodded coldly: "Well, if you can't suppress it within three days, I will kill you!"

Hearing this, Zhang Pingshan and the other two were stunned.

Sun Xingwang shouted, "Why did you kill us? My Sun family is not an official of the imperial court. We helped suppress the evil spirits, and the imperial court didn't reward us, but you killed us. What's the reason?"

"You want to reason with me, right?" Chen Xian became angry.

As for the Sun family, there is absolutely no clean place in Shiling County City, yet they dare to act so confidently in front of him.

"Seal the width."

"Sir, I am here."

"Investigate the Sun family thoroughly. I want to reveal all the evil deeds that all members of the Sun family have done. Not a single one will be left out."

"Yes, sir. I will check it out immediately."

When Feng Kuan heard this, he immediately took his men out of the hall.

Sun Xingwang was immediately confused.

His Sun family has been rising since the founding of the Daning Dynasty and has been passed down in Shiling County City for five hundred years. Now, as a strong man in the Tiangang Realm, his family members also have the ability to cultivate. They are used to being domineering in the county city, so how could they not have committed sins?

"Mr. Chen, I was just excited and angered you. Please don't hold it against me. From now on, I will lead my people to suppress the evil spirits and fight them to the death."

Sun Xingwang was so frightened that he became weak.

He was only at the second level of Tiangang cultivation, so how could he dare to challenge Chen Xian? The man in front of him was the Marquis of Shenyong, the one who killed Tu Shanpeng.

Chen Xian's eyes flickered coldly: "I'll give you three days. If there are still people missing, I will only hold you accountable."

Sun Xingwang nodded repeatedly.

However, the head of the Li family on the side glanced at Sun Xingwang coldly, secretly cursing Sun Xingwang in his heart for being a fool who had to show off and come out. Now he is in trouble.

Originally, Lord Chen was angry at Zhang Pingshan for his inaction, so how could he really punish their family? He had to confront him head-on and bring trouble upon himself.

Next.

Chen Xian asked Peng Dazhuang to take some people to the county town to help Feng Kuan, while he took Wang Yan and others to Fengyun County directly.

Half of Fengyun County was his fiefdom. How could he just sit back and watch as people in his fiefdom went missing?

The mayor of Fengyun County has been replaced. He is a middle-aged man in Lingkong Realm, who looks gentle and refined.

As soon as Chen Xian appeared in Fengyun County, the city lord immediately brought people from the City Guards and the Demon Suppression Bureau to greet him outside the city.

"Your subordinate Zhang Lei greets Master Chen."

"No need to be polite."

Chen Xian waved his hand and followed Zhang Lei and others back to the City Lord's Mansion.

The City Lord's Mansion has not changed. After Zhang Lei took office, he simply had people clean up the original furniture and items and rearrange them.

The chief of the Demon Suppression Bureau was also replaced. He was newly transferred from Shiling County City and his cultivation level was at the General Knowledge Realm.

The chief of the City Guard Department was also replaced by someone from the Feng family, Feng Qingfeng's father, who was at the Jade Sea Realm Minor Success, and his name was Feng Renjie. When Feng Renjie saw Chen Xian again, he was still very respectful.

Without Chen Xian, he would definitely not be able to become the director of the City Guard Bureau, and his Feng family would never become the largest family in Fengyun County again.

Chen Xian just nodded lightly, and then asked the Director of the Demon Suppression Division, Li Shanyong, a man in his forties, strong and sturdy.

"Your Excellency, more than 300 people have gone missing in the county in recent times, including in the towns below and in your hometown, Liuquan Town." Li Shanyong replied.

Chen Xian's eyes flickered: "How many people are missing in this town?"

Li Shanyong said: "There are twelve people."

Then he presented a list to Chen Xian.

Chen Xian took it and stared at the list. The next moment, his eyes narrowed slightly. Among the missing people in the town, the first name was Wang Ming.

Next came the names of Wang Ming’s parents. The entire family of three disappeared and has not been found to date.

He didn't care whether Wang Ming lived or died. The key point was that Wang Cheng and his wife had done favors for his family. Now that they were missing, how could he just sit back and do nothing?

"court death!"

He clenched his fists and continued looking, but did not see the names of the Cai family.

Then he scanned with his spiritual eyes and saw that Cai Jinghong was doing business in the store. In the attic, Cai Lin was pestering Cai Yujiao to find Chen Xian.

Cai Yujiao was reading a book and was really annoyed. She put down the book and said, "Brother, if you want to go, go by yourself. When Brother Chen Xian left, he didn't even think of taking me with him. Do I have the nerve to go find him?"

Cai Lin said, "Silly sister, my brother-in-law is going to take up a new post. It must be inconvenient for him to take you with him. But it's so dangerous recently. People are disappearing in the city every day. Who knows that my Cai family..."

"Brother, stop being such a pessimist!" Cai Yujiao rolled her eyes.

Cai Lin quickly covered his mouth: "Yes, yes, you can't say that."

Seeing this, Chen Xian’s eyes flashed and he retracted his spiritual eyes.

Under the care of the Feng family, the Cai family's business is obviously better than before. The noodle shop has expanded three times, and there are more people coming in and out.

Next, Chen Xian didn't waste any words with Li Shanyong, Zhang Lei and others. He only took Wang Yan with him, and all the others stayed in the county town. He asked Li Shanyong and others to cooperate with the black-clothed Wanhu to capture the monster.

Qingshan Town.

Chen Xian and Wang Yan did not ride horses. They appeared not far outside the town, scanning with their spiritual eyes.

Liuquan Town has been changed to Qingshan Town, but people have not changed their pronunciation and are still used to calling it Liuquan Town.

The mayor became Liu Shigang.

As for the Red Wolf Gang in the town, it no longer exists and the Liu Gang has also been disbanded.

There were quite a few people sitting in Liu Shigang's house, all of them were family members of the missing persons in the town.

Liu Shigang himself was in a difficult situation. He had already reported the kidnapping to the town demon bureau of the county. The bureau was currently investigating, and who knew when they would find the person.

Liu Shigang could only comfort the family members.

Chen Xian retracted his spiritual eyes and left quickly with Wang Yan.

When passing by Qinghu Mountain, Wang Yan was surprised: "This mountain is peculiar, it looks like a gourd."

Chen Xian said: "Qinghu Mountain, it's mine."

Wang Yan joked, "Brother Xian, your Chen family used to be a bully in the town, occupying such a big mountain."

Chen Xian chuckled: "Not a bully, but a wealthy family. More than three thousand years ago, this mountain belonged to my Chen family. It has been passed down from our ancestors to the present day. We live off the mountain!"

Wang Yan nodded: "That's true, but this mountain is quite high and steep, and most people can't really climb it."

Chen Xian nodded secretly and quickly flew over Qinghulu Mountain. Wang Yan followed quickly.

The two of them headed towards the Shiwan Mountains.

The demon must have kidnapped people for cultivation, but he didn't understand why he kidnapped Wang Cheng and his wife, who were so old?
Chen Xian wasn't sure if he could find the couple again, so he could only do his best.

Half an hour later, the two appeared in the Ten Thousand Mountains.

Recently, Wang Yan is in the Jindan stage, and his speed is much faster than before. Although he is still a little slow, it is still okay.

Chen Xian stood in mid-air, scanning with his spiritual eyes, and discovered that the number of demons in the Ten Thousand Mountains was indeed three or four times more than the last time he came to rescue Feng Qingluan.

Within a thousand miles, there are hundreds of demon kings and demon emperors.

"Kill them all!"

Chen Xian's eyes flashed coldly, he raised the Xuanlong Sword, turned around, picked up the demon king, and killed the demon in a flash.

Wang Yan followed beside him and only killed the demon king.

Soon, screams were heard within a radius of a thousand miles, and blood mist floated in places.

Finally, Chen Xian captured a demon lord and forced him to tell the whereabouts of Wang Cheng and his wife. The demon lord was also scared by Chen Xian's beating, but it didn't know who Wang Cheng and his wife were.

"What are you kidnapping people for?" Chen Xian pinched the neck of the demon lord, who was actually a black-scaled demon python.

"This..." The black-scaled python hesitated.

"Don't talk about death!" Chen Xian's eyes turned cold, and the Xuanlong Sword stabbed towards its forehead.

“I’ll tell you, I’ll tell you…!” the black-scaled python screamed.

The knife in Chen Xian's hand stopped.

"I'm telling you, can you let me go?" The Black Scale Demon Lord put forward the condition.

"Then it depends on whether what you say is what I want to hear." Chen Xian said coldly.

The Black Scale Demon Lord was stunned: "How would I know what you want to hear?"

"Delaying time, huh?" Chen Xian exerted force with his palm.

"No, no, no. I said, we should hand over all the people we captured to the Demon Saint. He is in the Black Abyss. I don't know what he does to them. He ordered me to do this. If I don't do it, I will die." said the Black Scaled Demonic Python.
