219: Demon Killing Pill

“No…” Cui Yushan waved his hand, “Hall Master, you’ve misunderstood. I was just about to look for you.”

“Looking for me?” Jiang Lan said, “Didn’t we just finish our shift a while ago? What do you need me for?”

Cui Yushan then said:

“That list you gave me earlier, just now, all the people on it have been found. I came to inform you.”

Hearing this, Jiang Lan looked at Cui Yushan with a hint of appreciation.

It was truly a case of someone bringing a pillow when he was sleepy. He had just been thinking about this matter, and unexpectedly, Cui Yushan had already handled it.

Of course, Jiang Lan could somewhat guess Cui Yushan’s little intentions.

He probably had the list ready earlier today.

Otherwise, the timing would have been too tight.

And since Cui Yushan didn't choose to give him the list in the main hall, it was likely to leave a good impression on him.

For example, still working after duty, or being efficient.

After all, Jiang Lan had specifically asked Cui Yushan to handle the list.

As he spoke, Cui Yushan pulled out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Jiang Lan, saying:

“Sir, this has their corresponding addresses and frequent haunts. You should be able to find them when you get there.”

Jiang Lan smiled:

“You’re thoughtful. After the roll call tomorrow, go to the accounts office and draw two hundred taels of silver as your reward.”

A flash of joy flickered in Cui Yushan’s eyes.

“Thank you, Hall Master.”

Jiang Lan said nothing more, just waved his hand.

As a superior, one naturally has to be clear about rewards and punishments.

Even if Cui Yushan came to him at this time because he harbored some small intentions.

But Jiang Lan would not deny Cui Yushan’s efforts because of this.

Although it had been a bit long, more than two months had passed since he handed the list to Cui Yushan.

However, Cui Yushan had been handling this matter by himself from beginning to end.

More than ten people, it was quite a project, and it definitely involved a lot of hard work.

“Alright, go.”

Jiang Lan waved Cui Yushan away, then stood on the street, leisurely unfolding the paper and reading it.

Among them, the three Demon Cores all lived in the Inner City.

And two of them even lived in the same place.

Below, Cui Yushan had added a few words.

(Suspected Dao Companion)

Jiang Lan chuckled.

Good heavens, no wonder he hadn't seen Cui Yushan after work recently.

So he was acting as a private detective?

Were all these addresses and locations scouted out by him one by one?

Jiang Lan clicked his tongue.

A capable subordinate!

If Cui Yushan were a human, Jiang Lan would definitely give him an important position.

Efficient and requiring no worries from him, such a subordinate is hard to find even with a lantern.

“Teng Snake Street…”

After reading the address written on it, Jiang Lan surveyed the street.

The innermost city was not large, with three streets running horizontally and vertically.

His current location was called Gou Chen Street.

Teng Snake Street was next door.

The names of these streets, at first glance, clearly weren't something demons could come up with.

And indeed, they weren't named by demons.

Jiang Lan had only learned this by chance when drinking with Feng Yao.

These streets were originally named Demon One, Demon Two, and Demon Three Streets.

Feng Yao found it too awkward, so he changed their names to Zhi Fu, Teng Snake, and Gou Chen Streets, respectively.

This way, they sounded much more pleasant.

He glanced at the sky. It was just evening, but the sunlight in the Demon Domain was inherently weak. Even though the sun had just set in the evening, it was like night in the human Empire. If it were an ordinary person's vision, they wouldn't be able to see anything clearly.

But the lowest Realm of those who could be on this street was Mortal Shedding.

So, day or night, it had no effect on them.

The same was true for Jiang Lan.

He could also see clearly.

Not only could he see clearly, but everything before his eyes appeared in minute detail to him.

With his Realm, his five senses were naturally exceptionally keen.

Jiang Lan didn't hesitate and walked directly towards Teng Snake Street.

In a short while, Jiang Lan had already arrived at the address written by Cui Yushan.

Before Jiang Lan was a small, independent courtyard.

The room inside the courtyard was lit, and through the window, two vague figures could be dimly seen.

Jiang Lan confirmed the address again, and after making sure there were no issues, he directly pushed open the courtyard door.

Those in the Demon Core Realm were already extraordinary.

Both their strength and the keenness of their perception were out of the ordinary.

So, the moment Jiang Lan pushed open the courtyard door, the candlelight in the room instantly dimmed.

Immediately, a clamor of noise erupted from inside the house.

Following that, a man and a woman flew out of the house simultaneously.

They looked ordinary, nothing special about their appearance.

After coming out, the two saw Jiang Lan at the courtyard gate.

At first, the man’s expression was somewhat cold, as if he wanted to utter harsh words.

But before he could speak, he saw Jiang Lan’s face.

The moment he recognized Jiang Lan, he immediately lost the thought of saying harsh words and instead changed his expression, saying:

“Wolf Hall Master? My wife and I have never broken the law. What is the reason for your visit?”

In this Inner City, almost no one didn’t recognize Jiang Lan now.

On one hand, his methods were ruthless.

On the other hand, ever since Jiang Lan arrived in the Luan Mo Region, except for once revealing his original appearance in front of Feng Yao, he had always appeared as a silver wolf.

Everyone else was in human form, and Jiang Lan was the only anomaly, so it would be strange if someone didn't recognize him.

Hearing this, Jiang Lan’s eyebrows subtly arched.

“I didn’t say you two broke the law.”

Looking at the man and woman in front of him, Jiang Lan was almost certain that these two were the ones who had defected from the Ten Thousand Demons Hall.

Without further ado, Jiang Lan directly pulled out the ten thousand demons token from his embrace.

“Do you two recognize this?”

The moment they saw the ten thousand demons token, the couple’s pupils rapidly constricted.

“This… the ten thousand demons token? Who are you?”

“It’s enough that you recognize it.”

Jiang Lan’s voice was indifferent. As his voice fell, his figure also vanished from its original spot.

“Bang!”

“Bang!”

With two muffled thuds, almost simultaneously, the couple who had just had varying expressions both rolled their eyes and fell to the ground, dead.

On Jiang Lan’s side, he also received a System prompt.

The System light screen appeared and flickered before Jiang Lan.

[Killed a Demon Core Seventh Stage Rat Demon, gained 8,762 years of lifespan.]

[Remaining lifespan: 8,763 years.]

Because the previous Cultivation Technique Fusion had consumed Jiang Lan’s lifespan to only one year remaining.

So, this time, he was starting over from scratch.

Immediately after, the text continued to flicker.

[Killed a Demon Core Seventh Stage Rat Demon, gained 8,803 years of lifespan.]

[Remaining lifespan: 17,566 years.]

Looking at the two corpses in front of him, Jiang Lan clapped his hands.

Done.

Then, he walked forward, his palm forming a blade, and the left ear of both corpses was cut off.

Holding the left ears, he stood up again.

These things could be exchanged for contribution points later.
