Martial Arts: My Talent Has No Limits

Chapter 25 Taiyin Horizontal Training

Inside the hall.

A man dressed in dark green military uniform, with a dignified expression, sat in a high position.

Commander Fu Hanchuan stood beside him.

"Qin Jiu of the Qin family pays his respects to Your Excellency, the County Magistrate."

Qin Jiu bowed to that figure.

The man nodded slightly: "No need for formalities."

"The Qin family has spared no effort in exorcising demons for our company, which I have witnessed. I have summoned the Qin family here for another matter. You and Wang Yue should wait aside until everyone is present before we discuss the matter."

"Yes."

Qin Jiu clasped his hands in a fist salute once more.

Then he led Wang Yue to Han Zheng's side.

As soon as he moved, several pairs of eerie gazes followed him.

His eye twitched slightly.

I have a general idea of ​​the resentment these people harbor.

The Qin family had previously sent several third-level martial artists to the Demon Suppression Division, which prompted the Demon Suppression Division to send out some experts from various families ahead of schedule. This move naturally offended many forces.

Qin Jiu's thoughts raced, and he asked Han Zheng in a low voice.

"What big move is going on?"

You'll find out soon enough.

Han Zheng's expression was not good.

He just sighed.

He then refused to say anything more.

Seeing this, Qin Jiu didn't dare to ask any further questions, because the expressions of the others around him were also very unpleasant, obviously because the county magistrate had said something earlier that caused them to lose their composure.

He fell silent.

He silently activated the Illumination talent.

Now that the top experts from all the major inner realms in the county have gathered together, it's a good time to use Zhao You to see if there are any people among them who are hostile to me or the Qin family.

However, this opening...

Qin Jiu's heart skipped a beat.

Within sight, three jet-black wisps of mist suddenly appeared, and not far from the Demon Suppression Division, a black mist that was about to transform into a pillar of light was slowly walking towards the hall.

"them......"

Qin Jiu's breathing became slightly sluggish.

He then glanced discreetly at Tang Yu, Jiang Lin, and another figure.

The first two were the head of the Canghai Martial Arts School in the inner city and the leader of the Cao Gang, while the third was actually a county official dressed in armor.

These three were blessed with extraordinary talent.

All of these were directed at himself or the Qin family.

A person radiating blatant malice.

And that black light outside...

"Ji Changqing of Siji Pharmacy greets Your Excellency, the County Magistrate."

At this time.

A middle-aged man with a refined and amiable appearance, holding a folding fan, entered the hall and greeted the county magistrate. Li Yuan followed half a step behind him and bowed at the same time.

Qin Jiu's gaze fell on him.

The pupils involuntarily contracted.

"Why is he the head of the Four Seasons Pharmacy?"

Qin Jiu's doubts grew stronger.

This person's blatant malice.

It almost surpasses the combined total of the other three.

What puzzled him most was why Ji Changqing harbored such malice towards him. It couldn't possibly be because of that secret recipe.

But that thing wasn't enough to deter several internally trained martial artists.

Even Ji Changqing was envious.

"What if their malice stems not from the secret plan against me, or from the Qin family?"

"What if it's just because of something else..."

Qin Jiu pondered.

The county magistrate's voice resounded throughout the hall once again.

"The Four Seasons Pharmacy, the Forging Shop, and all the other strongmen in the city have arrived."

"I won't waste any more time."

"I have summoned you all here today for one purpose: I wish to completely eliminate the scourge of demons. Of course, the number of demons is vast, so I need your combined efforts."

These words were spoken.

The expressions on everyone's faces grew increasingly grim.

Han Zheng braced himself and cupped his hands, saying, "Is Your Excellency overestimating us?"

"I have heard that among those demons, there are at least three powerful demons, whose strength is equal to that of the demon that destroyed the Zhao family that day. On that day, Commander Fu and two of the Zhao family's strongmen attacked together. The former was injured, and the latter were all killed."

"And our strength is only comparable to that of the Zhao brothers..."

"Master Han, please don't worry."

Although the county magistrate's face carried an unassailable air of authority, he was clearly also very disciplined in his actions. He patiently said, "Yesterday, someone from the prefectural government arrived at the yamen. Those demons of that level will be dealt with by others; you don't need to face them yourselves."

"You only need to suppress the other demons."

After he finished speaking...

The expressions of the surrounding experts also softened.

Only Ji Changqing spoke up calmly at this moment.

"I hope Your Excellency will understand that my Four Seasons Pharmacy and the Forging Shop never participate in the conflicts between major forces, let alone interfere in the affairs of the county. If you expect me to take action to suppress the demons, you will be disappointed."

"This is also against the rules of the pharmacy."

"presumptuous!"

The words hadn't even finished being spoken.

The county magistrate flew into a rage, his tone turning menacing: "How dare a mere pharmacy speak of rules before me? Do you truly believe you are above the laws of the Great Zhou?"

Even the head office of the Four Seasons Pharmacy wouldn't dare to speak so arrogantly in public.

"And what are you anyway?"

"Do you really think I'm consulting with you?"

As he spoke.

A terrifying aura, like a ferocious dragon raising its head, enveloped the hall almost simultaneously.

That is the energy beyond the realm of inner strength.

Ji Changqing's expression changed slightly.

"At midnight tonight, all of you must gather at the Demon Suppression Division. Anyone who fails to appear will be executed!"

"Does anyone have any further objections?"

The sound echoed in the hall.

Everyone fell silent.

Meanwhile, Qin Jiu, after a moment's thought, walked to the center of the hall, cupped his hands, and said, "The Qin family is willing to follow the instructions of the County Magistrate."

"But the adults mentioned it a few days ago."

"As a reward to the Qin family, the Demon Suppression Division will no longer need to allocate manpower..."

That's true.

The magistrate pondered for a moment, then said, "But Wang Yue cannot be absent from tonight's events. I think it's best if you go to the Demon Suppression Division and choose a martial art to take back as compensation to the Qin family. After that, the Demon Suppression Division will still not draw personnel from the Qin family."

"Of course, if things are like today's situation, we'll discuss it separately."

What do you think?

These words were spoken.

Qin Jiu looked astonished.

You think one martial art is enough to settle things?

Moreover, the other party's tone, seemingly asking a question, actually suggests that if they were to say no, it would be difficult to end the situation.

Feel the undisguised, sharp aura.

Qin Jiu bowed slightly.

"Thank you, sir."

The others looked at him with slightly strange expressions.

Their gaze kept shifting back and forth between him and the county magistrate.

A hint of surprise flashed in the latter's eyes, then he nodded and said, "In that case, Han Chuan, you take them to the armory to choose martial arts techniques. The rest of you may leave."

......

The Demon Suppression Division, inner hall.

arsenal.

Fu Hanchuan held a bamboo scroll and handed it to Qin Jiu, saying, "The Demon Suppression Division was hastily established, and currently the armory only contains three mid-level martial arts and seven low-level martial arts. The names of the martial arts and even their specific summaries are all on it."

"Let me know when you've made your choice."

Qin Jiu remained silent.

He took the bamboo slips and glanced at them briefly before deciding to choose one at random.

But his gaze quickly sharpened.

His gaze lingered above a mid-level martial arts technique.
