I Really Am Not The Lord of Demon Chapter 295 - Disappointment

Chapter 295: Disappointment

The helicopter landed on the tarmac slowly.

w.a.n.g Shan and the other two brothers got off the helicopter and wiped off the cold sweat on their foreheads.

A general of the Blackguard was sitting there.

Jiangcheng city was in a dangerous state.

This was because within the entire empire’s borders if a place required a general to be stationed, it was a region that had a general-level expert that was difficult to control, or there was a terrifying risk that was difficult to predict.

Otherwise, the general of the Blackguard of the empire was constantly patrolling the entire empire.

The vast territory of the empire depended on the constant patrolling and reinforcement of these powerhouses.

Just like the wild beasts of nature patrolling their territory.

After they pa.s.sed by, their psionic power radiation and the energy they emitted were similar to the wild beasts of nature.

It would leave a deep impression on the local people.

It would let everyone know that they should follow the rules.

Especially the foreign species that had just awakened, they would be afraid of them.

This would prevent these demons that had just developed their intelligence and possessed strength, from harming the civilians.

Therefore, every general was a valuable strategic resource.

“That General…” w.a.n.g Shan said with lingering fear, “I’m afraid he’s a lieutenant general…”

The other two brothers nodded as well.

They knew that it was very important to tuck one’s tail between one’s legs and be low profile in such a place with a fierce and powerful character overseeing things.

Otherwise, one would not even know how they died.

Every general of the Blackguard had direct authorization from the central federal government and the imperial family.

Wherever they go, they could deal with all cases related to transcendent being.

Other than not being able to attack civilians, he was a modern version of the Imperial Envoy, the eight prefectures patrol!

Their strength was enough to support their authority.

Every general’s power was enough for one country.

A general could create a destructive force equivalent to a modern heavy armoured army.

In front of such a character, numbers were no longer important.

The only one who could deal with a general was another general.

Therefore, the three brothers even restrained their vigour and spirit, didn’t dare to make any troubles anymore.

They walked out of the tarmac and headed towards the airport’s VIP pa.s.sage.

Just as they reached the door, a familiar voice came from behind them.

“Brother w.a.n.g…”

w.a.n.g Shan and the other two turned around and saw a familiar figure.

“Brother Zhang…” w.a.n.g Shan greeted him with a smile immediately. “It’s been a while since we have met!”

The person was wearing a simple casual s.h.i.+rt with a buzz cut. He seemed to be wearing a special watch in his hand. He looked to be about 24 or 25 years old, and his eyes were extraordinarily bright.

He shook hands with w.a.n.g Shan and the other two brothers one by one, and asked with a smile, “Are the three brothers also ordered to return to their hometown?”

w.a.n.g Shan nodded. “You know my old man’s temper…”

“Young brother, you find it hard to disobey the father’s orders as well?” w.a.n.g Shan teased.

“Hehe!” The other party smiled mysteriously. He didn’t object, but he didn’t admit it as well.

This was in line with his image.

Because he was the deputy chief of the Bao’an branch of the Blackguard, Zhang Fengxiao.

He was only twenty-five years old, but he already had the strength of a major!

This was very rare!

His future was limitless!

Thus, the four of them walked together to the VIP pa.s.sage. At the airport entrance, they took two taxis that they had already booked and rushed back to their hometown.

It wasn’t that they didn’t have any cars in Jiangcheng city.

In fact, if they give a phone call, they would dare to take any kind of luxury car.

But, they didn’t dare.

Because their legs would be broken.

The old parents in their hometown hated that they showed off when they had become rich.

w.a.n.g Shan was careful and purposely sat in the same car with Zhang Fengxiao.

As the car drove out of the airport parking lot slowly, w.a.n.g Shan asked tentatively, “Young brother, your company has been making big moves in Jiangcheng City recently?”

Zhang Fengxiao naturally knew what he was trying to find out, so he shook his head and said, “Brother w.a.n.g, you know the rules of our company…”

“I can’t say such trade secrets…”

“Other than that…” he smiled. “I’m just a small errand boy. How can I get in touch with such a grand strategy?”

“In the entire Guangnan branch, only a few people can get in touch with such a grand strategy!”

w.a.n.g Shan understood the moment he heard it. He smiled immediately and said, “Brother, you’re exaggerating!”

He thought for a moment and said, “Then young brother, would you mind explaining if your company’s policies will be adjusted because of this strategy?”

There was a great Buddha descended in Guangnan.

His existence would lead to a series of changes inevitably.

In the past, Guangnan’s side was far away from the emperor.

Under the rule of the Blackguard, as long as the transcendent being and the foreign species did not touch the red line or the bottom line, they were given freedom.

However, now a general had descended from the sky.

Many things became sensitive without knowing each other’s background.

This was because some generals might be extremely conservative. If they met such a general’s subordinates, many things that could be fooled in the past would become dangerous.

If they were not careful, they might be treated as chickens to be slaughtered by monkeys.

Zhang Fengxiao knew what w.a.n.g Shan meant. He smiled and said, “Don’t worry. Our company’s strategy is as usual!”

There was no need to hide such things.

On the contrary, the higher-ups had notified every blackguard official to spread the news as widely as possible.

The main goal was to calm the people’s down.

w.a.n.g Shan felt relaxed after hearing that. As long as the general had no intention of changing the current situation in Guangnan, it would be fine!

“Oh right…” w.a.n.g Shan looked at Zhang Fengxiao and asked, “Do you know anything about that descendant of the Ling family?”

Zhang Fengxiao shook his head. “I haven’t seen him since I met him once, which was more than ten years ago…”

“But every year, when I came back for the New Year, my father and my family urged me to take the initiative to visit him…”

“I was tempted to do so…”

“But when I went, he left…”

“Over the years, I also asked someone to inquire about him. It seems that he opened a bookstore in Jiangcheng City…”

w.a.n.g Shan listened and asked, “Didn’t you check on him through your company’s system?”

When Zhang Fengxiao heard this, his face turned stern instantly. He looked at w.a.n.g Shan seriously and said, “Brother w.a.n.g, our company strictly forbids this kind of behaviour!”

“You will be expelled directly once they found out, or even be sued!”

It was forbidden to target the power and strength of ordinary people. This was the supreme iron law of the blackguard.

Emperor Gaozong’s order had been carved into the bones of every blackguard by their instructors on the day they entered the ranks.

Zhang Fengxiao was no exception.

When w.a.n.g Shan saw this, he immediately laughed, “I’m joking… I’m joking…”

He did not dare to bear the crime of inciting the blackguard officials to dereliction of duty!

The Federal Empire had a policy of preferential treatment for transcendent being who abide by the law.

However, once they violated the law, the cost of breaking the law would be several times that of an ordinary person!

They give you a slap and another sweet date.

The Federal Empire and the Blackguard used this method to arrange all the extraordinary humans and foreign species in the empire’s territory.

As for those who didn’t want to be arranged, their graves were waiting for them.

…

Ling PingAn patted his stomach and sat in Uncle Zhang’s courtyard, basking in the sun lazily.

The kitten Bastet lay down obediently by his feet.

“It’s nice!” He said beautifully, “Aunt Zhang’s cooking skills are amazing!”

“It’s almost as good as my cooking skills!”

These were the highest words of praise from Ling PingAn.

As a gourmet, he was confident that his cooking skills were already at the state banquet level.

After eating in many places and restaurants, he knew that almost no one could cook better than him.

“If Young Master likes it, then stay for dinner…”Aunt Zhang, who was wearing an ap.r.o.n, said with a smile. She was very happy that her culinary skills could be certified.

“Sigh…”Ling PingAn shook his head. “I can’t… I have to rush back…”

“There’s still business in the shop…”

Well, he rarely told people about writing novels.

The main thing was there were no achievements from his writing!

“Then next time when Young Master comes back, I’ll cook for you again…” Aunt Zhang said with a smile. She was a very ordinary rural woman, and when she smiled, she gave people a sense of honesty just like Uncle Zhang.

“It’s just that I’ve troubled you too much…” Ling PingAn said apologetically.

“It’s no trouble…”Aunt Zhang smiled and walked into the inner room.

She opened the kitchen door and looked at the meat hanging on the beam.

The meat shone with a certain l.u.s.tre.

They were the meat of demons!

And they were the meat of great demons!

There weren’t many pieces left!

“Old Man…”Aunt Zhang said to her husband who was was.h.i.+ng dishes, “You have to prepare for another trip to Nanyang…”

“Let’s slaughter a few more great demons!”

“Okay!” The honest old village chief nodded with a smile.

Within the territory of the Federal Empire, there were no longer any demons that could be hunted.

The Blackguard controlled everything from the sky to the swamp, to the rivers and seas.

Any foreign species that did not obey the Blackguard’s rules were all turned into ashes under the thunder.

Those that were willing to obey would enter the protected areas.

In the various national nature reserves, great demons breathed in and out the moonlight.

They were requested by Black Guard to train and report on time.

If they were willing to enter society, they would make the arrangements for them.

The situation in the metropolitan territory was like this in the past hundred years

However, sacrifices were still needed for the ancestor wors.h.i.+p ceremony.

Hence, they could only go to Nanyang.

He chose a few evil demons and went straight to the door to kill them. He marinated their skin and flesh before bringing them back.

At this moment, the sound of a car came from outside.

The old village chief poked his head out and saw his son and the three w.a.n.g brothers getting out of the car.

He waved his hand and sealed the part.i.tion on the wooden beam.

His wife was about to leave when he stopped her. “Don’t go…”

The old village chief said, “The children will have their blessings…”

Aunt Zhang hesitated for a moment, she nodded.

……

Ling PingAn was listening to the sound of the car. He turned his head lazily and saw four people who were older than him getting out of the car.

His eyelids raised slightly. “They were the children of Uncle Zhang and Uncle w.a.n.g’s family, right?”

“They must be doing quite well…”

This could be seen from their attire and bearing.

However, no matter how well others were doing, what did it have to do with him?

Ling PingAn had always respected others, but he respected himself more.

Because only those who respected themselves would respect others.

He stood up from the chair out of courtesy.

Meow!

The Kitten Bastet meowed softly at his feet.

“Little Boy, you’re afraid of strangers…” Ling PingAn looked at it and said, “Then you can just find a random place…”

Meow!

The little guy stood up and walked to the bottom of the chair slowly. It then lay down.

Ling PingAn looked at the four who were walking toward him.

The three leaders were well-dressed, and from the way they dressed, they should be businessmen.

The one following behind them was in gentle look, and he looked like a scholar.

They walked up to Ling Pingan and bowed slightly. “You are little Young Master, right?”

“I am w.a.n.g Shan…” the leader looked to be in his thirties. He extended his hand and said very politely.

“h.e.l.lo…” Ling PingAn smiled. “You are welcome…”

“I’m Ling PingAn…”

“Don’t call me Little Young Master anymore…”

“It’s already been 8,240 years…”

Ling PingAn had seen these people when he was young.

However, he was too young at that time, and his memory was a little fuzzy.

He only remembered that there were more than a dozen people at that time, bowing and bowing in front of him and calling him ‘Little Master’.

At that time, he did not understand, so he accepted it.

Now that he thought about it, it was awkward and shameful!

Now, it could not be the same as before naturally.

These four people’s thoughts were the same as his.

This could be seen from their expressions and att.i.tudes.

It was great!

The education of the Federal Empire was not in vain!

Everyone was free, at least in terms of personality, and equal.

No matter if he was poor or n.o.ble!

This was very important!

w.a.n.g Shan looked at the young man in front of him with a smile.

He was an ordinary man.

He looked a little lazy, and he was in simple attire from top to bottom.

He was wearing a pair of cheap gla.s.ses, and he didn’t look special at all!

w.a.n.g Shan was happy when he was listening to his words.

“Very good…” he thought in his heart. This descendant of the Ling family was more tactful than he imagined.

What he was most afraid of was that he would rely on his ident.i.ty as a young master and order him around.

Of course, he couldn’t just let him do this.

At that time, he could just find an excuse to run away.

Even if the old man was angry, it would be the same.

Being filial was one thing.

But being foolish and filial was another thing.

Those who were more powerful would push around the weak. This rule had been in place for two thousand years.

Since he was so tactful, w.a.n.g Shan was delighted.

Of course, to take care of the old man, he still smiled and said, “Young Master, you must be joking…”

He straightened his back immediately and said with a smile, “Young master, let me introduce…”

“This is Brother Zhong, w.a.n.g Xiao…” a powerful man in his twenties nodded to Ling PingAn with a smile. “h.e.l.lo, Young Master!”

“This is Brother Ji, w.a.n.g Yi…” a young man with a shallow beard and a tattoo on his hand, who was probably about the same age as Ling PingAn, nodded in a reserved manner. “h.e.l.lo, Young Master!”

“This is…”w.a.n.g Shan introduced, “Brother Fengxiao of the Zhang family…”

The young man who wore gla.s.ses and looked gentle nodded slightly at Ling PingAn. “Nice to meet you, Young Master…”

Ling PingAn shook hands with them one by one. “Nice to meet you… Nice to meet you…”

After they finished shaking hands, he said, “You guys are too polite…”

“That’s not good…”

“Let’s do it our way from now on…”

“Stop calling me Young Master.”

“Call me Little Ling, or Ping An…” he smiled, and his eyes narrowed. “Let’s talk as friends from now on…”

When the four of them heard this, their faces were filled with smiles.

They were moved by Ling Pingan’s suggestion.

After all, they were all people that were educated, and they had expanded their horizons and knowledge outside.

Even though when they met Ling PingAn, they were still unable to avoid being influenced by the thought of being loyal to the Ling family that their parents instilled in them since young.

But who would be willing to be someone else’s servant?

Now, even gold diggers knew to work hard to rise to the top.

Moreover, they were all men!

Because they were worried about their elders, they did not dare to agree immediately.

Ling PingAn saw it and immediately smiled. “As for the uncles, I’ll go and speak to them…”

“As for us, we’ll treat each other as friends and treat everyone as equals…”

w.a.n.g Shan felt as if he had been pardoned and said instantly, “Thank you so much!”

He finally could stop using honorifics words!

In his opinion, since the Ling family had said so if the old man wanted to get angry, he wouldn’t able to do so!

Right!

w.a.n.g Xiao also said, “Ping An, I am thankful for this!”

He might as well call him by his first name.

w.a.n.g Yi and Zhang FengXiao laughed.

Obviously, they agreed with him.

But they did not know that a pair of disappointing eyes had withdrawn from them.
