Chapter 152: A Fate That Touched the Heart
the Black Tiger soldiers falling one by one around him, and a deep sense of helplessness arose in his heart.“Lord Nie, prepare for retreat!”A voice came from beside her.Nie Xu did not turn his head, b...It was not as warm as imagined, but instead a refreshing coolness that went down the throat and straight into the stomach.
In an instant.
It seemed like frost bloomed, slightly cooling the fiery blood.
Meanwhile.
The true qi in the dantian became even more gentle, no longer as restless as before.
Keep that in mind.
After absorbing the pure yang zhenqi, the Tianwu Gang Qi naturally possessed the attribute of pure yang zhenqi, becoming incredibly scorching hot.
Burning pure yang energy is highly effective against demons, but similarly, excessive heat can also harm oneself.
Just.
Shen Changqing's true energy was powerful, and coupled with his strong blood qi, he was not afraid of the heat of this true energy.
But no matter what, there are always risks involved.
However, after swallowing the spirit tea, he was astonished to find that the fiery heat within his Heaven Martial Qi had been neutralized slightly, becoming more rounded and substantial.
This discovery also surprised Shen Changqing's heart.
"What kind of tea is this"
>
"Spirit Ice Tea."
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Jiang Zuo seemed to have expected Shen Changqing's reaction long ago and couldn't help but smile.
"If you are promoted to a Xuanjie demon hunter, you can redeem once a year. Each gram redeemed requires one point of merit, with a limit of one hundred grams."
A little achievement, a tiny ounce of credit.
Shen Changqing's pupils shrank slightly. This is a bit too expensive, isn't it
One gram of ice spirit tea can only make a few cups at most. A normal pot of tea needs at least several grams of tea leaves.
A lesser ghost, at most one or two points of merit, while a resentful ghost would get three to five.
Demons comparable to those of a master-level expert, while providing slightly more contributions, are only a few dozen points.

It can be seen.
How precious is the Iced Spirit Tea

Furthermore, the number of Xuanjie Demon Exterminators is limited, apparently the Town Demon Division also has a limited reserve.
"If you hadn't come, I wouldn't have shared any of the spirit tea with anyone else," Jiang Zuo said pointedly.
Immediately.
He poured out two cups of spirit tea again, and took one for himself.
To be honest, I didn't expect your strength to improve so quickly. After slaying the barbarian general Maelba, you have truly made a name for yourself in the Jianghu!
"Does Jiang Guan also know"
This is a placeholder for text that should be translated.
Shen Changqing's face was full of surprise.
Upon hearing this.
The man on the Jiang left shook his head and smiled wryly.
"How could I possibly not know, or rather, how many people in the world today don't know about this A master-level expert draws attention from the Jianghu as it is, let alone an old-timer like Mai Erba.
"
When the barbarians broke into Baijiangzong, it also caused a huge sensation.
If you had killed another barbarian master, perhaps the impact wouldn't be so great, but you chose to kill Myerbal. The influence is naturally significant.
When speaking, Jiang Zuo was also filled with emotion.
He was very clear that Meyerbaun was a mid-master level powerhouse, and Shen Changqing could kill the opponent, so his strength was unimaginable.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
In less than three years, I went from a small apprentice exorcist to a powerhouse capable of slaying masters. If I said it out loud, no one would believe me.
However.
Jiangzuo didn't pursue the matter any further.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Everyone has their own destiny, Shen Changqing must have also received an unknown opportunity to get where he is today.
Such a fortuitous opportunity is comparable to one's life and wealth for anyone.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
If you press for an explanation, not only will they not tell you, but it will also cause cracks in your relationship.
The main point is.
Shen Changqing is no longer the novice exorcist he once was. In terms of strength, Jiangzuo humbly admits that he is not a match for him.
In this situation, to go digging into other people's background is completely insane.
"Brother Shen, there's something I want to say to you."
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Jiang Zuo's sudden change in attitude and address startled Shen Changqing, making his expression strange.
"Mr. Jiang, please speak."
"Fate is personal, you should never let a second person know about it. Even if someone above you asks, you must keep your secret. There's nothing wrong with keeping a secret, but losing its value is the real problem."
In the Demon Suppression Bureau, as long as you don't collude with demons, there is no other crime that can bring down a demon slayer, especially one at the Grandmaster level.
On the left bank of the river, Zheng solemnly warned.
“I understand.”
>
Shen Changqing's face was filled with gratitude, but in reality, his heart was very calm.
He understood the hidden meaning in Jiang Zuo's words. The other party simply wanted to sell him a few more good things.
As for this.
He had no reason to refuse.
"As long as you understand, there are some things I'm not comfortable discussing in detail. Besides, with your abilities, it's more than enough to be promoted to a higher rank of demon slayer. Calling me "Manager Jiang" all the time feels a bit awkward. If you consider me a friend, there's no need to be so formal."
Let me know if you'd like me to translate something else!
"Brother Jiang!"
"Great!"
Jiang Zuo had a warm smile on his face, seemingly very happy.
Immediately.
His smile lessened slightly.
"You should be promoted now, a Huangjie Exorcist at the Grandmaster level wouldn't be accepted anywhere. Moreover, your reputation has spread, and it will inevitably attract attention from others."
With this factor in place, even if you suppress your promotion to a higher rank, the Demon Suppression Office may still assign you some high-difficulty tasks.
So, I personally suggest that you consider being directly promoted to the Earth Tier Exorcist. You would enjoy the corresponding benefits and take on relevant missions. This would be a much better option than staying at the Xuan Tier.
Looking at Shen Changqing's face.
Jiang Zuo hesitated for a moment, then continued.
"To put it simply, the Bingling Tea in front of us has exchange restrictions for Xuan-rank Demon Exterminators, but for Di-rank Demon Exterminators, the exchange restrictions will be lower, and the price will be relatively cheaper.
"
The Demonic Suppression Bureau is spread throughout the land, and the number of treasures it holds is immeasurable.
As you ascend, the items you can exchange will also increase accordingly. This way, in terms of your strength, there will be a great benefit.
"Brother Jiang's words have enlightened me. To be honest, I did have the idea of advancing to a higher level, but I wasn't sure about the specifics. Now that I hear what Brother Jiang has to say, I can proceed with confidence."
Shen Changqing said.
This is a good example of how HTML tags can be used to format text.
He was already planning to be promoted, coming to Jiangzuo was just a formality.
Now that Jiangzuo's words have been heard, it has solidified the thoughts in his heart.
Jiang Zuo said: “However, to be promoted from the Huang Jie to the Xuan Jie, one must kill a resentful monster of the Gui Jie level or a demon with a congenital realm. To be promoted from the Xuan Jie to the Di Jie, one must at least kill a demon at the peak of the innate realm, or a monster of the peak Gui Jie.”
You went to the Dahuang Mansion before, and you probably have some gains in this area, so it's no big deal to reach from Huangjie to Xuanjie.
If you can ascend from the Xuan rank to the Di rank, you still have to complete an assessment mission. Unfortunately, Meirba is not a demon, otherwise, if you killed him, you could skip the assessment mission.
It's a pity about the situation on the Jiangzuo side.
If Meierba was a demon, Shen Changqing would have made a killing this time.
Alas.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The Demon Suppression Division is an organization dedicated to slaying demons and monsters. All their missions revolve around demons and monsters; if there's no involvement with them, they have little use.
"Speaking of which, you killed Maibaba. The court should have rewarded you for that, but since you just came back, they probably haven't made a move yet. In a few days, I imagine they will."
"A barbarian general, and a strong one at the middle stage of the Master level. This reward is quite substantial indeed."
Jiang Zuo smacked his lips, his eyes filled with envy.
He could just imagine it, and he knew exactly how much the reward would be.
"As for the rewards, we can postpone them. When I destroyed the Everlasting Alliance stronghold in Dahuang Mansion, I killed a powerful demon. I think with the merit given by that demon, I should be exempt from the assessment tasks."
When Shen Changqing spoke, he took out the Qingling jade pendant.
>
Looking at the pitch-black color above, Jiang Zuo took a sharp intake of cold air.
"Such a thick, sinister aura!"
>
The Qingling jade pendant absorbed the sinister aura and had the effect of blocking qi. Therefore, when Shen Changqing didn't take out the jade pendant, he couldn't sense the sinister aura on the Qingling jade pendant.
When Shen Changqing took out the jade pendant.
Only then did Jiang Zuo clearly see just how intensely thick that inky, sinister aura was.
Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!
“I was overthinking it.”
"With this level of ominous energy, you could directly advance to the next rank at the Demon Slaying Hall without even participating in the assessment mission!"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Jiang Zuo smiled wryly.
It turns out I still underestimated the opponent.
Here is the translation of " >>":
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Such an oppressive and sinister aura would be enough to allow a yellow-ranked demon exorcist to directly ascend to the level of a terrestrial rank.
When Shen Changqing put the Qingling Jade Pendant away, he continued speaking.
"You can go ahead and ascend now, it doesn't matter to me here as I have nothing going on. You're a ground-level demon slayer, so technically you are no longer under the Demon Slayer Academy's jurisdiction. When you return in the future, just report to me here briefly."
"You can handle the rest yourself."
A brief report to let the Demon Suppression Agency know where this exorcist is: inside the agency or out on a mission.
It's like the old days.
Besides reporting, some task content also needs to be submitted. Now this hassle is gone directly.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
“Then I shall take my leave. I'll come visit you again after I've been promoted.”
Shen Changqing stood up.
>
Jiang Zuo also got up and sent the other party out the door before returning.
“Less than three years, late stage of the Grandmaster, this opportunity is truly exciting!”
He sat back down to his original place, a look of envy on his face.
That's it for now.
Jiang Zuo held high regard for Shen Changqing, and this admiration only deepened now. That's why he spoke so much earlier, just to cultivate some favors. After all, favors cost nothing, and who knows when they might be returned someday.
"In a short while, the Demon Suppression Division will have one more top-tier powerhouse!"
Let out a sigh.
Jiangzuo no longer thought about this matter.
He looked at himself, then at Shen Changqing. The more he thought about it, the more distressed he felt.
Instead of thinking so much and making yourself uncomfortable, it's better to spare some effort and let your methods break through to the Grandmaster level.
On the other side.
Shen Changqing also walked towards the Slashing Demon Hall.nzong before gathering them to resist the Corpse Demons. 。"The Corpse Demon is here with overwhelming force, you must immediately go to the secret realm to seek out the Lord Feather World." 。The Ancie...
