Chapter 1180 The Demon Hunter's Great Demon 25
Fu Ling was glanced at by Fang Shui several times, but she didn't seem embarrassed at all.
He even looked back at Fang Shui with a particularly smug expression.
Fang Shui had been pestering Yao Yao for a long time.
He could only hide in the bag and watch them through the two small holes.
Now it's finally his turn to stick close to Ling Yao, and no matter how much Fang Shui stares at him, he won't feel anything wrong with it.
I do hope Fang Shui will read more.
Fang Shui, bound and seemingly defiant, avoided eye contact with the man's gaze.
After Fu Ling told Ling Yao about the person who discovered her, Ling Yao intentionally investigated the matter.
But nothing was found.
That person seems to have disappeared after that day.
Lingyao felt it was unlikely that someone could suddenly disappear without a trace in a place like the main county.
She guessed that the other party had most likely used disguise techniques.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for there to be no trace at all.
But if he discovered the existence of the binding order, why didn't he come knocking on his door?
We got through almost half a month safely.
Lingyao was suddenly assigned to complete a mission in the neighboring county.
Moreover, this mission involves accompanying a Heavenly-level demon hunter.
This is enough to convey the level of danger of this mission.
The Heavenly-level demon hunter assigned to guide Lingyao through the mission was a demon hunter named Wudao, along with Lingyao and her companions Fuling and Fangshui.
Another Heavenly-level demon hunter, Zong Xing, was accompanied by Baili Qing'er and her entourage.
This mere individual mobilized two Heavenly-level demon hunters and brought along two Earthly-level demon hunters.
Fang Shui couldn't help but feel nervous and uneasy while sitting in the car.
"Sister Yao Yao, this mission must be very difficult, right? They even had to ask two Heavenly-level Demon Catchers for help."
It should be noted that Fang Shui had only seen a demon hunter of this caliber once before, on the day of the entrance examination.
It's impossible for a lowly Yellow-level demon hunter like her not to worry.
Lingyao responded with an "Mmm".
Fu Ling, who was peeling an orange, carefully peeled off all the skin before holding it to Ling Yao's lips.
Lingyao raised her hand and pushed him away, and he then casually threw it into his mouth.
He smacked his lips arrogantly.
"How difficult can it be? In the end, they'll still get beaten so badly they'll be begging for mercy on their knees!"
He even adopted a godson.
Lingyao reminded him, "That's called pissing from your butt."
Fu Ling spread his hands, looking completely innocent: "Is there a difference?"
Lingyao: "..."
Even with the help of the teleportation talisman, it still took them two hours to reach their destination.
When Lingyao and the other two got off the carriage, they ran right into Baili Qing'er and her group getting off the carriage.
Bai Li Qing'er's entourage was noticeably more luxurious.
Besides the Yellow-rank demon hunter she had chosen from the demon hunter academy, she was accompanied by a man and a woman, both of whom were Xuan-rank demon hunters.
They must be from the Baili family.
This demon-catching mission is going to be very difficult, and the Baili family doesn't want their carefully cultivated talent to just disappear like that.
Naturally, someone should be sent to accompany them.
If it weren't for the requirement that demon hunters cannot bring demon hunters of a higher level as assistants when carrying out missions, otherwise it would be considered cheating.
They will not be assigned task points, and will be barred from participating in the demon hunter assessment for one year.
The Baili family might arrange for a few demon hunters of the highest level to follow Baili Qing'er.
When Wudao and Zongxing saw them coming, they both nodded in response.
Wu Dao, as Ling Yao's assigned demon-catching master, glanced at the team of this temporary apprentice who had become quite famous among demon catchers in recent years, but his gaze settled on the man following Ling Yao.
"This person doesn't seem to be a demon hunter?"
The demon hunter had no spiritual energy binding him at all, but he had a great deal of demonic energy, though he had completely concealed it.
Moreover, he wasn't wearing any of the Demon Hunter's uniform, and the sword he carried on his back wasn't the money sword used by demon hunters.
Since Lingyao dared to bring the binding token, she must have already thought of an explanation for this matter.
"This is my pharmacist."
To establish the character of Fu Ling, she forced Fu Ling to thoroughly study basic medicinal books and learn some basic skills in medicine making.
Fu Ling was initially very unwilling; his mind had been corrupted by those novels, and he couldn't concentrate on reading them.
However, knowing that Lingyao was doing all this to help him so that he could walk better in the human world, he forced himself to watch even though he always pouted.
Later, as I watched, I actually got into it. Following the steps of making medicine, I fried more than a dozen batches of herbs and actually succeeded.
For those few days, the entire mansion was filled with the smell of gunpowder and medicine.
It looks like it's been bombarded.
Fortunately, the results are good.
Upon hearing Lingyao's words, Wudao raised an eyebrow in surprise.
After all, alchemists are even harder to find than demon hunters.
Alchemists throughout the world either hide their identities and practice medicine in the martial arts world, or they are recruited by powerful clans at a young age.
A demon hunter of the Earth rank like Ling Yao would never have the financial resources or strength to recruit alchemists.
Take Liu Yeqing, for example, who is said to have recommended Lingyao to the Demon Hunter Academy. He has been a Level 1 Demon Hunter for almost eight or nine years.
When I was injured during the last demon-catching expedition, it was an alchemist sent by the imperial court who treated me.
There are no alchemists in his residence.
Unexpectedly, Lingyao already had an alchemist assisting her.
However, isn't this alchemist a bit too young?
Perhaps he's just a beginner alchemist apprentice who's only scratched the surface, otherwise I wouldn't have never heard of him in the martial arts world before.
The name Fuling is quite memorable.
Wu Dao nodded at the binding order, not taking it seriously.
He immediately explained the details of the mission to Lingyao.
The location for this mission is Sishui County.
A strange thing has happened in this county recently.
A young woman in the county suddenly gave birth to a stillborn baby.
Moreover, the woman would hold the stillborn baby and sing a strange song all day long.
The melody was long and mournful, and it was sung from morning till night. The surrounding households had to keep their doors and windows tightly shut at night and cover their ears to sleep, which was really creepy.
The woman's parents tried to snatch the dead baby from her, but she pushed them to the ground and chased after them, biting them.
Finally, the people of the county invited a Xuan-level demon hunter, who determined that the trouble was caused by the "feathered-robed man" demon.
The Feathered Demon has a layer of skin that resembles feathers, and its feathers can change rapidly. It rapes people, impregnates them, and then drains their nutrients, causing them to die. This woman may have been lucky, or she may have been unlucky.
Although it gave birth to a demon, it did not die.
Perhaps this monster hadn't fully absorbed the nutrients, so after being born it couldn't cause any trouble and could only continue to control the mother to protect itself.
This kind of monster wasn't considered a high-level monster; it was only mentioned briefly in the books I used to learn about monsters.
This man in feathered robes can rape not only women, but also men.
