143: Caring for the people, fearless

Royal Palace.

Before heading to the Demon Suppression Division for her report, Long Xixue first sent Long Xiyue back to the inner palace.

Although that little loli was extremely unwilling and desperately wanted to explore, Long Xixue forcibly sent her back to the palace for confinement.

After all, the Devil Head calamity had just passed, and with Long Xiyue's mere Qi Refinement first-level cultivation, it was too dangerous for her to be outside. Moreover, the Empress, knowing Long Xiyue was troublesome, had already given her a month of confinement!

This time, Long Xixue was going to the Demon Suppression Division for her report, and she took this opportunity to sneak out with her.

She claimed it was to accompany Long Xixue and broaden her horizons.

She didn't expect Long Xixue to lose interest so quickly, which truly made this little loli grit her teeth...

"Long Xixue, once you've established yourself in the Demon Suppression Division, can you get me in too?"

A fawning expression appeared on Long Xiyue’s little loli face, and she said coquettishly.

Long Xixue repeatedly waved her hand: "The Demon Suppression Division is on the front lines against Ancient Demons, it's very dangerous. I couldn't bear to let you go there!"

Long Xiyue quickly said: "Clerical work is fine too! I'm telling you, I've been studying the Poison path recently..."

Long Xixue was startled and quickly said: "The Poison path is an evil Dao, you mustn't learn bad things!"

Long Xiyue pouted her mouth, looking disdainfully at Long Xixue: "What do you know?"

"There's no such thing as an evil Dao; all techniques depend on the character of the person wielding them!"

"At the peak of the Poison path, one can even bring the dead back to life and reach the pinnacle!"

Long Xiyue's eyes lit up, as if she had recalled something!

Seeing Long Xiyue speak so eloquently, Long Xixue no longer argued.

Anyway, her sister only had a three-day enthusiasm for anything she did; in a couple of days, she wouldn't have this idea anymore.

Thinking of her colleagues in the Demon Suppression Division still fighting on the front lines, Long Xixue quickly bid farewell to Long Xiyue.

Immediately, she headed to the location of the Demon Suppression Division.

From a distance, the Demon Suppression Division occupied a vast area, and its purple-black layout appeared very majestic and solemn.

The original Heavenly Craft Pavilion was located in the center of the courtyard, serving as the main hall of the Demon Suppression Division.

Around the main hall were five smaller halls and a garden, arranged in an orderly manner, with each building's location meticulously chosen.

Only the four corners were empty, as if they were specifically left vacant!

Upon reaching the main gate, Long Xixue saw a huge black plaque hanging above the door, with the three characters "Demon Suppression Division" carved on it.

On the left and right doorframes were carved eight golden characters.

Suppress and kill Ancient Demons, protect the Nine Provinces!

She observed for a moment and found that there was no one guarding the entrance of the Demon Suppression Division.

Opening the door, a chilling sense of killing intent washed over her, making Long Xixue's heart tighten.

Such a strong aura of killing!

Suppressing the tremor in her heart, Long Xixue walked towards the main hall.

Along the way, she didn't find a single person.

Was the Demon Suppression Division just an empty shell?

That shouldn't be the case, right?

She had seen several Demon Suppression Division deacons on the street earlier!

It wasn't until she approached the main hall of the Demon Suppression Division...

She heard a steady voice.

"The Demon Suppression Division began ninety-four thousand five hundred years ago, and this organization was established when the Human Race founded its first Dynasty!"

"The goal of this organization's establishment is to eradicate all Ancient Demons under heaven and protect the safety of the Human Race!"

"Seventy years ago, Xiao Zhan stubbornly forced open the Heavenly Gate, releasing a hundred Ancient Demons, causing widespread suffering and misery in the Nine Provinces World!"

"All colleagues of the Demon Suppression Division fought bravely, rushing to the front lines!"

"That battle, at the cost of the entire Demon Suppression Division's demise, bought the peace of the current era!"

"Now, Your Majesty has rebuilt the Demon Suppression Division. As the new successors of the Demon Suppression Division, are you prepared to die?"

An impassioned voice echoed in Long Xixue's ears, making her skin crawl.

At this moment, she wished she could dedicate herself to the great cause of the Human Race!

Entering the grand hall,

Long Xixue formally saw the person speaking.

It was a man full of heroic spirit.

He wore a purple-black official uniform, his face as handsome as if carved, and his eyes were bright and piercing, as if they could see through everything.

"Today is the first meeting after the Demon Suppression Division's reconstruction!"

"I know many people are wondering!"

"Why are the four corners of the Demon Suppression Division left vacant?"

"I've heard that during its most prosperous period, the Demon Suppression Division possessed three Demon Suppression Towers, suppressing various Devil Heads across the Nine Provinces!"

"I, Jiang Lin, hereby swear to build four Demon Suppression Towers and eliminate all Devil Heads under heaven!"

Jiang Lin stood in the center of the main hall, his posture tall and straight, his face filled with righteousness.

Everyone below rose and swore with Jiang Lin.

"The common people of the world have suffered from Devil Head cults for too long. Our Demon Suppression Division officially declares war on the seven major Devil Head cults!"

"Within three months, our Demon Suppression Division will visit each Devil Head cult for a 'meeting'!"

"We will use those Devil Head cult villains to fill the Demon Suppression Towers!"

As his voice fell, Jiang Lin immediately had Jiang Liu announce the declaration of war to the world!

Below, Long Xixue looked at Jiang Lin, her eyes filled with stars of admiration.

A true man should act like this!

Caring for the common people, fearless and dauntless!

......

"You are?"

Hearing Jiang Lin's question, Long Xixue quickly explained herself: "My name is Long Xixue, Your Majesty sent me!"

Jiang Lin's face immediately showed joy, with a hint of realization, he said: "So it's Princess Long Xiyue, you've finally arrived!!"

The next moment, Jiang Lin shouted: "Tell everyone in the Demon Suppression Division that the Vice Director has arrived! Everyone come and recognize her face, don't let anyone not even recognize the Director!"

Long Xixue's face flushed, and she whispered: "Director Jiang, please don't be so formal, just call me Long Xiyue!"

Jiang Lin smiled and said: "Then I won't be polite. Long Xiyue, you can just call me Brother Lin!"

"Uh, Brother Lin......"

Long Xixue's face grew even redder.

Seeing Long Xixue like this, Jiang Lin had a rough idea of the situation.

She wasn't here to share power, just to monitor him!

No, not even monitoring.

This silly princess wouldn't discover anything useful at all.

It seemed like His Majesty wanted to bestow her upon him in marriage!

But he was afraid of completely offending the Liu Family and didn't want to bring it up himself.

Did they want him to bring it up?

Was he stupid?

How comfortable it was to benefit from both the Royal Family and the Liu Family!

It was just that little tigress, Liu Yaner, who was a bit of a nuisance!

As for this one, she was clearly a gift!

Long Xixue, this name was quite unfamiliar.

In the original plot, let alone being the female lead, she only appeared in one sentence!

And it wasn't even specifically introducing her; it was a line Long Xiyue said when showing off to Xiao Dong:

"In Gu Xi Continent, if my older sister says one, no one dares to say two!"

In the subsequent plot, the Chaos First Devil's first Incarnation, Hongmeng Demon Ancestor, as soon as he resurrected, occupied Gu Xi Continent. The rulers there either died or became Devil Heads!

To sum it up, she was purely a tool for Royal Family marriage alliances.

But for Jiang Lin, this woman was quite useful.

Whether it was to appease the Liu Family or to gain more trust from the Royal Family, she was a crucial chess piece.

To the Liu Family:

I really don't not want to marry Liu Yaner, it's just this Long Xixue, I don't know how to handle her?

To the Royal Family:

I really don't not want to marry Long Xixue, it's just that Liu Yaner is too fiery. Your Majesty also wouldn't want chaos on the wedding day, it wouldn't be good for the Royal Family's reputation, right?

Thinking of this, Jiang Lin looked at Long Xixue with increasing gentleness.

You've practically come to save my life!

Immediately, Jiang Lin waved his hand: "Long Xiyue, since you're here, let's clarify our division of labor!"

"The allocation of Secret Realm resources, the system of rewards and punishments, and intelligence processing... all these internal affairs of the Demon Suppression Division and matters concerning the court will be entrusted to you!"

Long Xixue was startled, her face full of shock: "Me?"
