Chapter 50 He's the Deputy Hall Master of the Enforcement Hall?

Lost? Showing him the sights?

Listen to that, is that even human language?

This is the Blood-Vein Mine, the lowest level of the Demon Realm; who would come to a place like this in a group just to show someone the sights?

The blood drained from the Skinny Bamboo Demon Cultivator's face.

Looking at the smile on Gu Heng's face, he only felt a chill rising within him.

The commander had died suddenly.

Moreover, he had died silently, without even causing a ripple.

The two of them subconsciously activated their demonic senses at the same time, wanting to probe the depth of this youth in white once more.

The other party's cultivation base was definitely not that of a True Immortal Early Stage.

The Skinny Bamboo Demon Cultivator looked at Gu Heng, then glanced at the Fairy in white beside him, whose aura was equally unfathomable and seemed untouched by the mortal world; his mind went blank.

Wasn't this kid just ascended?

What was up with that Heavenly Immortal cultivation base?

And where did this Fairy pop out from?

While the two were trembling in shock, Gu Heng seemed to stretch his back as if he had been standing for too long.

As he stretched his body, an object slid out from his sleeve.

"Clink."

A crisp metallic clinking sound echoed through the cavern.

It was a token, pitch black all over, cast from an unknown material.

The style of the token was ancient and simple; there was not a trace of Devilish Qi on it, but instead, it was shrouded in a solemn and murderous aura, as if it represented the Dao Rhyme of the supreme Law between heaven and earth.

"It seems... to be a token?"

The Skinny Bamboo Demon Cultivator murmured subconsciously.

No, that's not right!

He suddenly remembered, wasn't there a token hanging at this kid's waist that he had taken from that unlucky overseer?

They were more than familiar with that overseer token.

But what was this one that had just fallen out?

The Skinny Bamboo Demon Cultivator was the closest; kneeling on the ground, he could clearly see the patterns carved on the front of the token.

It was not any script from the Demon Realm, but a more ancient and majestic Immortal Dao divine script.

When he saw those words clearly, his pupils suddenly constricted, as if he had seen the most incredible sight in the world.

"Deputy... Deputy Hall..."

His lips trembled, and he only managed to spit out three words before his eyes rolled back, and he fainted on the spot.

"Old... Old Third?"

Seeing this, the One-Horned Demon Cultivator was scared out of his wits.

Ignoring his fear, he lunged forward, grabbed his companion by the shoulders, and shook him desperately.

"Wake up! What did you see on that thing? Don't scare me!"

He went crazy and slapped his companion across the face.

"Slap!"

The sound of the slap echoed in the cavern.

The Skinny Bamboo Demon Cultivator slowly regained consciousness from the slap, gasping for air, his eyes unfocused.

"What... what was that?" the One-Horned Demon Cultivator asked urgently.

The Skinny Bamboo Demon Cultivator finally caught his breath, tremblingly raised his hand, pointed at the token on the ground, and stammered,

"Immortal... Immortal Realm... Law... Law Enforcement Hall... Deputy Hall Master..."

"Wh... what? He is the Deputy Hall Master of the Immortal Realm Law Enforcement Hall?"

Deputy Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall—these words rang like thunder in the Skinny Bamboo Demon Cultivator's mind.

The Immortal Realm Law Enforcement Hall!

For demon cultivators like them at the bottom of the Demon Realm, they had heard of some of the top powers in the Immortal Realm.

And the Immortal Realm Law Enforcement Hall was even more renowned.

It was one of the most iron-fisted organizations under the Immortal Realm Divine Court, specifically responsible for overseeing the thousand great worlds beneath the Divine Court and judging Immortals.

Anyone who could sit in the position of "Deputy Hall Master" in such a place would need a cultivation base of at least... a Quasi-Immortal Emperor!

A Quasi-Immortal Emperor!

If that was the case... then everything made sense!

Why the commander had died suddenly!

Why he could ignore the Immortal Binding Rope!

Why he was accompanied by a Fairy with such a terrifying aura!

Everything had the most logical explanation.

The seemingly harmless youth in white before them was not some newbie who had just ascended, but a big shot at the level of a Quasi-Immortal Emperor from the Immortal Realm Law Enforcement Hall, who had come down to inspect the people's condition while traveling incognito!

Realizing this, the Skinny Bamboo Demon Cultivator could no longer stand; he followed the One-Horned Demon Cultivator and knelt on the ground together.

It was over; they had truly poked a hole in the sky.

They had actually treated a Quasi-Immortal Emperor traveling incognito as a toy, dragged him into the mine, and even made him experience the "training" of an overseer...

What kind of death-seeking behavior was this?!

"Deputy... Deputy Hall Master!"

The One-Horned Demon Cultivator was faster to react; he jerked his head up from the ground, not bothering to wipe the snot and tears from his face, and kowtowed frantically to Gu Heng.

"My Lord, please see the truth! This lowly one... this lowly one just saw that you were unfamiliar with the place and specially came in to show you the sights!"

As he spoke, he pointed his finger at the Skinny Bamboo Demon Cultivator, who was also kneeling beside him.

"It was actually this kid! He was obstructing me outside earlier! He said that since you were just ascended, you weren't worth the trouble of us two brothers, and he even wanted to throw you directly into the mine to fend for yourself! I felt it was inappropriate at the time, argued with him for a long time, and only then convinced him to come in with me to guide you!"

"..."

The Skinny Bamboo Demon Cultivator beside him heard this, and his eyeballs almost popped out of their sockets.

Good grief!

I treated you like a brother, and you backstabbed me in such a way?

Was that what we were arguing about outside just now?!

He opened his mouth in shock, pointing at the One-Horned Demon Cultivator, trembling with anger, "You..."

"You what!"

The One-Horned Demon Cultivator didn't give him a chance to speak at all, preemptively snorted coldly, and reprimanded him righteously: "Hmph! It was you, kid! You were disrespectful to the Lord earlier on the road, your words were highly offensive, you truly deserve to die a thousand times, ten thousand times!"

He said this with such righteous indignation, as if he were the loyal subject who had always been defending Gu Heng.

The Skinny Bamboo Demon Cultivator was so angry he could explode.

Even a rabbit will bite when pushed into a corner!

He jerked his head around, also kowtowed to Gu Heng, and accused him indignantly: "My Lord! Don't listen to his nonsense!

Back outside, he was the one who personally said you were a good-for-nothing waste who looked good but was useless, and he even said what... said he wanted you to properly experience the training of an overseer and get a taste of the cruelty at the bottom of our Demon Realm!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the air in the cavern instantly froze.

The expression on the One-Horned Demon Cultivator's face froze, and his kowtowing also stopped.

"..."

The Old Dragon King, who was to the side, was completely stunned at this moment.

He opened his mouth, looking at this one, then looking at that one, his mind in a complete mess.

Deputy Hall Master of the Immortal Realm Law Enforcement Hall? A Quasi-Immortal Emperor!?

Good heavens! The Master actually had this identity too?

He originally thought that Gu Heng was at most a great power from the Upper Realm hiding his cultivation, but he never expected his background to be so terrifying!

No wonder... no wonder he dared to be so unscrupulous!

Thinking of this, the last bit of grievance the Old Dragon King felt about being a mount completely vanished, replaced by endless ecstasy.

What a thick thigh he had managed to hug!

He looked at Gu Heng, and the awe in his eyes had climbed to the peak.

He never expected the Master to be such a low-key person, willing to be misunderstood just to personally enter the tiger's den and experience the suffering of the people; what kind of breadth of mind and courage was this!

Inside the cavern, everyone was shaken by this earth-shattering reversal.

Only Lin Qingyue frowned slightly.

Her gaze swept over the token on the ground and then fell back to Gu Heng, who looked calm and relaxed, as if everything had nothing to do with him; she fell into deep thought.

Others might be bluffed by this token, but she vaguely felt that something was wrong.

This man had been full of mysteries since the Lower Realm.

Could he really be the Deputy Hall Master of the Immortal Realm Law Enforcement Hall?

In the silence, Gu Heng finally moved.

He shook his head, sighed, and showed a hint of annoyance.

"Oh my, how careless of me, the token accidentally fell out."

"..."

Pfft...

What a great "accident"...

The Old Dragon King almost couldn't catch his breath and couldn't hold it in anymore.

He had seen it clearly; apart from the stolen overseer token, the Master clearly had nothing else on him earlier. This Deputy Hall Master token had just appeared out of thin air!

How could it have accidentally fallen out?

This acting... was way too exaggerated!

However, he immediately understood.

This was the Master giving them a way out!

How clever the Old Dragon King was; he immediately picked up the token from the ground with both hands, held it high above his head, and chimed in with a flattering face:

"Oh! Master, you are too careless! How can such a divine object be shown to others so casually? Quickly put it away, quickly put it away! If an outsider were to see this, wouldn't it be the death of this old servant!"

As he spoke, he trotted over to Gu Heng and respectfully handed the token over.

Gu Heng took the token from his hand, wiped it casually on his sleeve, and tucked it back into his bosom.

The whole process was smooth and natural.

Meanwhile, the One-Horned Demon Cultivator and the Skinny Bamboo Demon Cultivator, who were kneeling on the ground, finally calmed down after experiencing their initial shock and blaming each other.

The two looked at each other and saw endless fear in each other's eyes.

They began to communicate rapidly using their demonic senses.

[Old Third, what do we do now? We captured the Deputy Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall as a slave...]

[How should I know what to do! The problem now is that the Demon Venerable is still waiting for the people! How are we supposed to report back?]
