302: Overdoing something

"Boss, these guys look a bit cruel. Do we really have to do this?"

"I feel like Jiang Lan and the others aren't entirely evil. Why don't we think of another way?"

A few subordinates felt it wasn't too late to stop now.

They had powder that could deal with these Yao Beasts.

This also came from the Demon Suppression Division, and it seemed someone came up with the idea.

But Huang Qilian was already overly agitated.

No matter what anyone said, it wouldn't work.

"Do you think I'm joking with you, or do you think the previous methods were more effective than this?"

"There are some things I don't want to say a second time, but what's said now is like spilled water, and besides, these guys have already rushed out."

"You're telling me to stop now, to regret it. Do you think that's possible?"

Seeing this, the subordinates sighed.

They also wanted to dissuade him, but given the current situation, it seemed truly impossible.

"Alright, all of you return to your residences."

"I'm not the kind of person who likes to dwell and waste time. As for the rest, I don't want to discuss it anymore, because it's meaningless."

After he finished speaking, he continued to wait there, not even forgetting to sprinkle the powder that drove the Yao Beasts mad below.

Originally, those Yao Beasts were headed towards the Inn where Jiang Lan and the others lived, but some didn't follow the plan.

They even ran directly to the residences of the surrounding common people.

"Help! Is anyone there?"

"The Yao Beasts are out again! Are there any members of the Demon Suppression Division?"

They were screaming wildly below.

Huang Qilian had originally intended to earn merit; if he had the Magical Artifact from Jiang Lan, plus his current abilities,

He would definitely make those people look at him with new eyes.

But he hadn't expected the current situation to exceed his expectations.

"What's going on? Why are they going down that street? Didn't they say they would only go there?"

Seeing this, a few subordinates also broke out in a cold sweat.

"Boss, we already said that this thing can't control them. They're not Puppets in our hands."

"We can only use this scent to lure them to that side, but the others might become uncontrollable."

At his words, Huang Qilian was stunned.

Meanwhile, Jiang Lan suddenly opened his eyes in the Inn.

Because he smelled an unusual scent.

When he first came out, he saw Wang Wenshan and Xu Lindong rushing back in a panic.

"What's wrong?"

"A large group of Yao Beasts has arrived over there. It seems someone deliberately lured them, and besides this area, the remaining ones have all surged into the surrounding streets."

"Many common people have been injured because of this, and the people from the Demon Suppression Division have also come out to stop them, but for some reason, these Yao Beasts seem to have been sprinkled with powder and are showing signs of going mad."

After listening to their explanation, Jiang Lan's eyes narrowed.

"It seems someone is unhappy with us. I had originally thought that as long as he didn't seek death, I could let him live."

"But now it seems he doesn't want to live."

Jiang Lan's gaze startled both of them.

Although they were prepared, this was the first time they had seen something like this.

"What's wrong? Do you think I'm too terrifying like this?"

The two shook their heads mechanically.

"No, you're not terrifying like this. If we don't do this, they might change next time."

Even if they had a grudge against them, or wanted to retaliate wantonly, they could have just gone directly to their door.

The common people are innocent, just like before when Wang Wenshan wanted to attack Jiang Lan.

Because he couldn't find an opportunity, he kept feeling that it wasn't appropriate.

But after he truly had an opportunity later on,

He felt that Jiang Lan hadn't done anything wrong, and besides, he had given him so many Magic Treasures to improve his cultivation.

He couldn't possibly do that.

He had regulated himself well here, and now seeing others harbor hatred towards Jiang Lan, he didn't understand.

"Although what you said is indeed correct, I don't think that merely this will change their minds."

"It's fine. Since someone is doing this, then let's go meet him."

By the time Jiang Lan and Wang Wenshan came out,

The city outside was already surrounded by Yao Beasts.

The three of them did their best to clear the area.

Jiang Lan was too lazy to use those Magical Artifacts, feeling it was a bit of a waste of lifespan.

Wang Wenshan and Xu Lindong, on the other hand, felt that it was time to display the gains they had made in the Ancient Secret Realm.

Otherwise, learning so much would be a pure waste, wouldn't it?

The three had different thoughts.

Huang Qilian, who saw this scene from afar, gritted his teeth.

"No, how could they clean it up so quickly?"

"Are these Yao Beasts you brought even any good?"

A few subordinates felt their scalps tingle at this.

"Boss, please don't say such things. Didn't you see how badly those common people below were bitten?"

"This Jiang Lan is inherently a freak. As for Wang Wenshan and Xu Lindong, having been by his side for so long, they must have also learned his abilities, so these ordinary methods definitely won't work."

At these words, Huang Qilian angrily punched a nearby stone.

If this plan failed and he was investigated, it would truly be a case of trying to steal a chicken and losing the rice.

He absolutely would not allow such a thing to happen, so his expression towards the others became particularly serious.

"In that case, we can only start from other places. I originally didn't want to make it so obvious."

"But now it seems there's no such opportunity, but how to seize it? That depends on you."

At his words, the two were somewhat confused.

Before his subordinates could figure it out, Jiang Lan and Wang Wenshan had already arrived in front of him.

Jiang Lan looked at him coldly, his thin lips parted, his expression as if looking at a dead man. "So arrogant, did you not consider the consequences?"

"Jiang Lan, you, you, how did you get here?"

He stammered when he saw Jiang Lan.

His subordinates even took advantage of his distraction to sneak away.

Jiang Lan knew that this matter had nothing to do with those people.

But now, the entire Demon Suppression Division had been mobilized, slaughtering all the Yao Beasts outside.

Yet this guy still thought it wasn't chaotic enough.

This city had been maintained with great difficulty.

Now, because of his disturbance, many more people had died.

"How did I get here? Don't you know in your heart?"

"Why do you want to deal with me so much?"

"If you really want to deal with me, these few Yao Beasts probably won't harm me. Why don't you go somewhere else and get something more powerful?" Jiang Lan looked at him mockingly.

Huang Qilian subconsciously took a step back, an awkward smile on his face.

"I don't know what you're talking about, what Yao Beasts? I'm also very confused by the appearance of these Yao Beasts."

And it was precisely at this moment that the new leader of the Demon Suppression Division also found his way here.

They took out a special Magical Artifact to detect scents.

Soon, they found the source of the scent, and upon arriving, they saw Jiang Lan and the others, which surprised him.
