"Xuantian Sect?!"

Captain Zhao was shocked!

"He is actually the immortal sent by Xuantian Sect to eradicate the demonic plague?!"

Captain Zhao was shocked and confused, but the other four detectives, who had not come into contact with high-level officials and did not know the name of Xuantian Sect, continued to attack Lin Li.

"Humph! You dare to call yourself an immortal just by showing off a token? Let me test your abilities first!"

Captain Zhao gritted his teeth as he spoke, and continued to besiege Lin Li with the detectives.

Lin Li frowned and said, "Since you insist on doing this, don't blame me for being rude!"

After saying that, Lin Li easily knocked down the five men with the spine of his sword.

In just a few breaths, the five people felt severely injured after being hit by Lin Li's sword. They fell to the ground one after another, and stopped in pain.

"Goddess! I was blind and didn't recognize the real Lord! Please spare my life! Let me go!"

Captain Zhao knelt on the ground, kowtowed and begged for mercy, which left Aunt Zhao dumbfounded, while the girl looked very proud.

The other four constables also rolled on the ground in pain.

"Your brother has been seduced by the demons and has fallen into the trap of becoming a half-demon."

Lin Li said: "Although we can't see anything abnormal now, we can bring his body to Danyang County. Then, we can pour the black dog blood, which has the effect of exorcising evil spirits, on him and find out the truth! Any evil spirit will be corroded instantly when splashed with the black dog blood. He has fallen into a half-demon. Even if he dies, it is difficult to get rid of his demonic nature. He will be suppressed by the black dog blood."

"ah?!"

Captain Zhao was shocked.

However, he had no choice but to believe it.

Afterwards, Lin Li turned around and said to Aunt Zhao and the girl, "I am a cultivator, so it is not convenient for me to take a concubine casually."

"Saving people this time is what a cultivator should do to uphold justice! As for betrothing that little girl to me, please don't mention it again."

The beautiful girl was extremely disappointed when she heard this and said angrily, "I know! You just think I'm not worthy of you! Woo woo woo."

As he said this, he started crying.

Aunt Zhao said awkwardly: "But..."

"Nothing but!"

Lin Li looked at Captain Zhao and said, "From now on, you are not allowed to cause trouble to this mother and daughter again. Do you understand?!"

"Got it, Immortal!"

"If I find out that there are still people bullying this mother and daughter, I will make sure you guys pay the consequences!"

"Yes, yes, yes! From now on, no one in Danyang County will dare to bully them again!"

"So, you can rest assured now, right?"

Lin Li looked at Aunt Zhao.

"Thank you, Immortal!"

Danyang County, county government office.

"Welcome to the Immortal!"

The county lieutenant led a group of officials and lined up in two rows in front of the county government office to welcome Lin Li.

After Lin Li showed his identity token, the county lieutenant immediately welcomed him into the county government office and complained bitterly to him.

After hearing from the county lieutenant that in Danyang County, all crops had been destroyed in the past six months due to a plague of evil rats, and the county had to rely on the old rice stored in the warehouse over the years to survive. At the same time, the number of tourists visiting the county had also dropped sharply. After Danyang County fell into trouble, Lin Li inquired about the situation that the few independent cultivators who had been summoned by the government had found out.

It turned out that those wandering cultivators were famous "half-immortals" in the vicinity. Upon hearing that Danyang County was in disaster, some of them came to help on their own initiative, while others coveted the generous bounty offered by the government.

No matter what their starting point was, they failed to complete their mission and were killed by the rats.

After these casual cultivators spent their lives to gather intelligence, Danyang County currently has the following information...

Currently, the Demon Rat King's cultivation has reached the sixth level, and the four demon rats under his command have also reached the fourth level.

In addition, the reason why the cultivator with the highest cultivation level among those cultivators, who had reached the sixth level of Qi Refining, unfortunately died was because, in addition to these five demon rats, there were hundreds or thousands of new demon rats in the rat group.

Although a single entry-level demon rat was not a concern, a huge number of demon rats swarmed in and were like ants biting an elephant to death, causing the sixth-level casual cultivator to die.

"Very good!"

Ye Fan was very happy when he heard the message from Lin Li while he was sitting in the county government office and talking with the county lieutenant!

The human wave tactics are useless against Ye Fan, the sword master who possesses bloodthirsty abilities!

On the contrary, such a large number of demon rats is just the right opportunity for Ye Fan's sword master Lin Li to go on a killing spree!

In this way, Ye Fan can obtain a large amount of evolution points and energy points and grow rapidly!

After learning that the rat infestation was most serious and that the place where those wandering cultivators died was Linhe Town, thirteen miles northeast of Danyang County, Ye Fan set out on his journey alone.

Originally, the county lieutenant wanted to send troops to accompany him, but Lin Li declined the offer on the pretext that the troops would be a burden.

After half a day, almost at dusk, Lin Li finally arrived at the destination of this journey: Danyang County, Linhe Town!

Linhe Town is located on the bank of Qingshui River, a tributary of Shengjiang River.

Originally, it was a town with a beautiful environment, but now, it is deserted.

Riding a black horse along the road, you can see rotting corpses and dry bones on the road.

As the place where the evil rat plague first broke out, almost all the townspeople here were infected with the plague and were slaughtered by the evil rats.

As for the surviving townspeople, they did not dare to stay in Linhe Town any longer and fled far away.

At this time, Linhe Town was in ruins and deathly silence.

Kick, tap, tap…

Accompanied by the sound of hurried horse hooves, Lin Li rushed into the deserted Linhe Town, which was full of desolation.

"strangeness!"

Lin Li frowned.

In this town, you can see dead bodies from time to time, but there is not even a single mouse to be seen!

"As the base camp of the demon rats, how is it possible that we didn't see even a single rat along the way?"

Lin Li pulled the reins, slowed down, and paced in Linhe Town, thinking: "There must be something wrong here!"

At this moment, suddenly, a creepy and eerie laugh came from all directions!

"Hehehe..."

"Who's sneaking around? Get out here!"

Lin Li jumped off his horse and screamed loudly!

"Squeak, squeak, squeak..."

At this time, finally, Linhe Town, which had always been like a dead city, became lively!

They were so densely packed that big rats, like cats, came out from the surrounding houses and dark places, covering the sky and the earth, making people's scalp tingle when they saw them!

At the same time, a guy covered in a black robe appeared in front of the window of the two-story building in front of Lin Li.

His face was hidden under the black robe, so Lin Li could not see it clearly: "I've waited for so long! The people from Xuantian Sect are finally here!"

“Hahahaha! But, what a pity! Xuantian Sect actually only sent such a useless little guy to die!”

"It's only the seventh level of Qi Refining. What kind of waves can it cause?"

“Faced with my army of demon rats, I’m afraid that even the four great generals won’t have a chance to fight. They will be like those useless cultivators before, and will be bitten to death and dismembered by my huge army of demon rats! Hahaha!”
