40: How was he killed? With a knife.

After everyone left, the Centurion stepped forward two paces and kicked Qiu Rang in the butt.

"Get up! If I don't tell you to get up, are you just going to keep kneeling?"

Qiu Rang quickly stood up upon hearing this. "Boss, aren't you angry?"

"Angry? What in the world would I be angry about? If I hadn't scared them, would those people have scrammed so quickly?"

Qiu Rang beamed.

"Boss is brilliant!"

"Stop with the flattery. Tell me, what happened? Why did you go to that gambling den to cause trouble for no reason?"

Qiu Rang pointed a finger at Jiang Lan beside him.

"He's the one who went!"

Now that there were no outsiders, he didn't hesitate to sell out Jiang Lan.

After all, they were all his own people, and with Jiang Lan's Martial Dao Realm, even if he had truly made a mistake, nothing serious would happen.

Moreover, Jiang Lan really did break into that casino to save someone.

No matter what government office, saving people is always the right thing to do.

The Centurion glanced at the young woman standing next to Jiang Lan.

It seemed this young woman was the older sister of his Unpaid Servant.

The girl was pretty and had a good figure.

If she were a bit rounder, she'd be as big as his family's water vat.

She looked like she'd be good at bearing children.

Brother Jiang has good taste!

It's just that this girl seemed a bit slow-witted, staring blankly, and didn't react when people spoke.

But it wasn't a big problem. Brother Jiang had money; what was wrong with supporting a silly girl? As long as she could have children, wasn't that enough?

"You?"

The Centurion looked at Jiang Lan.

He hadn't noticed earlier.

Now, looking at the girl beside Jiang Lan, was her soul drawn out?

And the black bundle in his hand... The Centurion's nose twitched slightly.

This smell, he was all too familiar with it.

Such a strong smell of blood.

A head?

Hearing the Centurion's question, Jiang Lan replied:

"It was me."

The Centurion looked again at the bundle in Jiang Lan's hand, and at Zhang Cui standing beside him, before speaking:

"Tell me in detail?"

Jiang Lan had no intention of hiding anything and recounted what had happened that day, more or less.

However, he omitted the matter of the gold ingots, not mentioning them.

He knew that the person in front of him was the Centurion of the Demon Suppression Division.

Although Jiang Lan hadn't seen this person since his Transmigration, he had this face in his memories.

After Jiang Lan finished speaking, the Centurion glanced at Qiu Rang.

"Go, take this girl to the Miao Fa Pavilion and see if she can be cured."

The Miao Fa Pavilion was where the Taoist Priests of the Demon Suppression Division usually stayed.

"Your subordinate obeys!"

Qiu Rang cupped his fists, walked to Zhang Cui, and after a moment of thought, mimicked Jiang Lan by carrying her under his arm and walked into the Demon Suppression Division.

After Qiu Rang left, the Centurion looked at Jiang Lan.

"Then in your bundle, are those demon creatures, and the head of that evil cultivator?"

Jiang Lan nodded slightly.

The Centurion pondered for a moment. "Follow me."

The two walked one after another into the Demon Suppression Division.

Not far from the entrance, a tall, thin figure was looking out, his gaze showing some anxiety.

This person was Zhao Wu.

As an Unpaid Servant, he naturally dared not join the crowd at the entrance, so he could only stand here with his ears perked.

Seeing Jiang Lan, he finally let out a long breath and relaxed.

It was good that he was fine.

If he had really dragged their boss into trouble for saving Zhang Cui, it would have been a loss greater than the gain.

But he didn't dare to speak out.

Zhao Wu had heard clearly just now that the person walking in front of Jiang Lan was the esteemed Centurion of the Demon Suppression Division.

With such a huge difference in status, he would have to be out of his mind to dare to step forward and speak at this moment.

However, Jiang Lan didn't have this concern. Upon seeing Zhao Wu, he stopped.

"Where's Zhang Wen?"

Zhao Wu first secretly glanced at the Centurion, who had also stopped, then timidly replied:

"He went after the Centurion."

Jiang Lan nodded.

Earlier, Qiu Rang had carried Zhang Cui into the Demon Suppression Division, so Zhang Wen probably saw that and followed him.

"It's fine now, you go about your business. I'll be back at the squad room later."

"Yes..."

The Centurion glanced at Jiang Lan.

Normally, a low-ranking Demon Suppression Guard would never dare to speak to someone else and make him wait.

But this young Demon Suppression Guard in front of him was clearly not quite normal.

However, the Centurion was not angry.

Although he was a martial artist, he had at least reached the high position of Centurion, so he still had the capacity to be tolerant.

"Finished talking? Let's go."

Jiang Lan didn't respond, just followed behind the Centurion.

After about half a cup of tea, the two arrived in front of a small courtyard.

The courtyard was secluded and quiet, with some flowers and plants growing inside. It seemed somewhat out of place with the cold and solemn atmosphere of the Demon Suppression Division, instead resembling an ordinary country courtyard.

This was the Centurion's residence?

The Centurion pulled open the courtyard gate. "Come in."

Inside the courtyard, besides the flowers and plants, there was also a stone chess table with four stone stools placed around it.

Entering the courtyard, the Centurion sat down on a stone stool first.

"Sit."

Jiang Lan heard this, and carrying his bundle, sat on the stone stool opposite the Centurion.

The Centurion didn't waste words, directly pointing at the bundle in his hand and saying: "Open it, let me see."

Jiang Lan first looked at the chess table, then placed the bundle on the empty ground beside the two of them.

"Why didn't you put it on the table?"

"It's a very exquisite chess table, it would be a shame to get it dirty," Jiang Lan said, lowering his head to untie the bundle, without looking up.

"You're quite an interesting person, haha..."

After two laughs, the Centurion couldn't laugh anymore.

Because at this moment, the black bundle's covering had been opened.

Inside, there were a total of four heads.

One triangular toad head, one chicken head, and the other two were human.

The human heads were one male and one female.

Although the man was already dead, he still had a gloomy expression; he didn't look like a good person at all.

The woman, on the other hand, showed no signs of ferocity on her face, and combined with her appearance, she looked like a child from a respectable family.

In short, if an ordinary person were to look at them, these heads would probably look awkward no matter how they were viewed.

But the Centurion didn't find them awkward.

Because he recognized these heads!

Only the woman's head he didn't recognize, but appearing with the other three, there was no need to think to know what had happened.

The Centurion's eyes widened slightly.

"You killed him?"

"Centurion, do you know him?"

Jiang Lan was a bit surprised.

The Centurion didn't answer directly, but stared straight at Jiang Lan and asked:

"You just said you killed the person and the demons, right?"

"Right."

"You are a Demon Suppression Guard, right?"

"Right."

"Then can you tell me how you killed them?"

Jiang Lan answered truthfully: "Killed them with a knife."

Centurion: "..."

After a long silence, he finally asked:

"Then what is your Realm now?"

"Qi Gathering Fifth Level."

Hearing Jiang Lan's words, the Centurion felt his mind was a bit muddled.

Demon Suppression Guard.

Qi Gathering Fifth Level.

No matter which of these two terms was taken alone, he could understand it.

But when the two terms were put together, why couldn't he understand it?

Was this still the official language of Great Yan?
