Chapter 1 Advanced Strength

Wu Qi knew that his young master's strength had greatly improved and was very happy. "Young master, how about letting Sanya prepare some food for you?"

"Alright, I'm really a bit hungry." Xu Jingming nodded.

"Sanya…"

Wu Qi immediately went to arrange for the maids to prepare the meal.

Xu Jingming was also in a very good mood at the moment. The fact that his magic power could increase in the Demon Subduing World meant that his mental strength had also reached a new stage.

According to common sense, only eighth-order cosmic lifeforms could cultivate into the fourth-realm Demon Subduer.

Even if he took the Ice Flower Spirit Liquid, his mental strength would have to reach the top level of the seventh-order to cultivate to the fourth realm.

"After joining the Yuanchu Research Institute for five months, my mental strength has finally reached the top level of the seventh order." Xu Jingming looked forward to it, "I hope I can reach the eighth order as soon as possible."

"Reaching the eighth order is only the real starting point for the outer members of the Yuanchu Research Institute."

The peerless geniuses who can be recruited have the strongest inheritance and the Ice Flower Spirit Liquid, and they all reach the eighth order in a short period of time.

The only difficulty is from the eighth order to the ninth order.

It generally takes hundreds of years, or even more than a thousand years!

"Master." Two maids smiled and brought food, fruit, and wine on wooden trays. These two maids also knew that their master was a powerful Demon Subduer, so they naturally felt very honored.

Being a maid for an ordinary wealthy family is completely different from being a maid for a powerful Demon Subduer.

Neighbors and relatives, who wouldn't be polite to them?

On the night of his breakthrough to the fourth-realm Demon Subduer, Xu Jingming finally practiced the supernatural power ‘Star God Body’.

"Coming to the Demon Subduing World, my three main spells, Thunder Spell, Luo Net Technique, and Guardian Starlight, this Guardian Starlight is the last one to be promoted to the supernatural power level." Xu Jingming

Sitting cross-legged on the bed, endless starlight continuously poured into his body.

The body was slowly transforming, the muscles and bones were transforming, from an ordinary flesh body to a Star God Body based on Demon Subduing magic power and starlight as energy.

The transformation process lasted more than three hours. "The Star God Body is finally at the entry level."

Xu Jingming sat there, "The God Body can gather and disperse. When dispersed, it is endless starlight."

Whoosh.

Xu Jingming, who was sitting cross-legged, dispersed into a ray of starlight. The starlight flashed and flew out of the window. In the blink of an eye, it circled around the yard several times, flew around in the high sky, and finally returned to the house.

"When gathered, there is great power in the body." The starlight condensed into Xu Jingming, and he was already sitting cross-legged on the bed, but with a slight grip of his right hand, boom! The air exploded.

"It feels a bit like a Source Lifeform." Xu Jingming felt it, "The body of a Source Lifeform is formed by the cosmic source power and can be transformed, but the physical evolution and transformation in reality... is much more complicated, and my amount of knowledge is far from enough."

Xu Jingming got up, walked to the corner of the room, and picked up the gun pouch placed on the ground.

"It's been many days since I got this divine spear, and I still can't wield it." Xu Jingming was a little emotional. With an ordinary flesh body, even with cell-level control, he could only barely lift it.

But to perform spearmanship skillfully? Strength is far from enough.

Now that he has cultivated the Star God Body, he can easily carry the gun pouch.

Whoosh.

A ray of starlight flashed, and Xu Jingming had already arrived at an open space in the back garden.

"This speed is already supersonic." Xu Jingming thought, "Moreover, there is no sound or movement when flying as starlight."

Taking out the two sections of the spear shaft from the gun pouch, and locking them together, Xu Jingming began to perform spearmanship. He didn't deliberately pursue speed, but just performed it according to his heart. Starlight surrounded him, and the air fluctuations caused by Xu Jingming's spear were naturally borne by the starlight, without destroying the surrounding vegetation.

"It still feels better to perform spearmanship." After all, Xu Jingming had been practicing weapons since he was a child. Coming to the Demon Subduing World, he had been casting spells remotely, and he was really not used to it.

When encountering demons, he instinctively wanted to rush up with a spear!

But before, with his mortal body, going up was suicide.

"Now that I have cultivated three supernatural powers, Five Thunder Technique, Heavenly Net, and Star God Body, I will focus on the Star God Body in the future." Xu Jingming thought, "First, I can use the advantages of my combat skills, and the combination of close combat weapons and spells will have a better effect. Second, I can also train in actual combat in the Demon Subduing World."

His actual combat ability is considered excellent among eighth-order cosmic lifeforms, but there is still a lot of room for improvement.

Cheng An Prefecture, Bai County.

The old patriarch of the Chen family was hosting a banquet for Magistrate Wang.

"Old Chen." Magistrate Wang said drunkenly, smiling, "There is good news that I must tell you."

"What good news?" The old patriarch raised his eyebrows. As the patriarch of the 'Chen family', one of the largest families in Bai County, the magistrate had to respect him a bit.

"That Chen Qi who was expelled from your family." Magistrate Wang whispered, "But he is a remarkable Demon Subduer. Just a while ago, he killed an Earth Demon in the Prefecture City, and he is on brotherly terms with the Qi family patriarch in the Prefecture City."

The old patriarch's triangular eyes turned colder, and he whispered: "Killing an Earth Demon? On brotherly terms with the Qi family patriarch in the Prefecture City?"

"This is news from the Prefecture City. Not many people in Bai County know about it yet." Magistrate Wang said, "Old Chen, that Chen Qi and the Chen family are still family after all. Even if the bones are broken, the tendons are still connected! As long as the Chen family admits its mistake, lowers its head, and gives Chen Qi enough face... I believe he is still willing to return to the Chen family."

The old patriarch nodded slightly: "What Magistrate Wang said makes sense. I have to think of a way when I get back."

"By the way, that Chen Qi also changed his name when he went to the Prefecture City, to Wu Ming." Magistrate Wang said.

"Changed his name?" The old patriarch frowned, "Surname Wu?"

"I'm afraid there is resentment in his heart." Magistrate Wang smiled, "The Chen family's actions before were a bit ruthless even for me, an outsider. How can Chen Qi not have resentment? In short, I have said what I should say. How to deal with it is up to the Chen family to decide."

"Thank you, Magistrate Wang." The old patriarch nodded, "By the way, who was the Earth Demon he killed? The Earth Demons in Cheng An Prefecture should all be somewhat famous."

"Zhang Xiu, the patrolling envoy, one of the thirty-six envoys of Dongming Mountain." Magistrate Wang said.

The old patriarch nodded slightly.

Night.

The old patriarch of the Chen family summoned Chen Shi'an.

Chen Jia Lao Zu Zhang Zhaojian Chen Shi'an Kou

"Shi'an, you know the situation." The old patriarch looked at Chen Shi'an, "Chen Qi is your son, tell me, what should we do?"

Chen Shi'an was still a little dazed: "Him? Became a Demon Subduer and killed an Earth Demon?"

Is this son so powerful?

"Magistrate Wang would not lie about this kind of thing." The old patriarch said, "Your son's talent is amazing. He has become such a powerful Demon Subduer at such a young age. He may become even more powerful in the future. This is a rare opportunity for our Chen family! With a powerful Demon Subduer in charge, the family can become much stronger."

Chen Shi'an couldn't help but say: "But we have already removed him from the family tree."

"We can write it back on." The old patriarch said, "These are all small things. The most important thing is to make Chen Qi forgive the family."

"How do we make him forgive us?" Chen Shi'an asked, "This kid has even changed his surname to Wu."

The old patriarch smiled: "So someone with enough weight must come forward and apologize in person. I really want to go, but I am old and weak after all. So I hope you, as his father, will take a trip to the Prefecture City and apologize in person. You are father and son after all, and you have had so much affection for so many years. I believe there is nothing you can't talk about."

"I go to the Prefecture City?" Chen Shi'an's eyes widened, "It's thousands of miles from Bai County to the Prefecture City, and the road is dangerous and unpredictable."

"For the family, you must go." The old patriarch said.

"I'm not going, I'm not going."

Chen Shi'an said decisively, shaking his head: "Uncle, don't force me. No matter how much you force me, I won't go! You are in charge of the main house, you can't let the head of the second house go to die, right?"

"You..." The old patriarch gritted his teeth in anger.

"What's more, my son killed the Earth Demon of Dongming Mountain. It's hard to say whether it's a blessing or a curse." Chen Shi'an snorted, "If we go to recognize him now, the demons of Dongming Mountain might kill us."

The old patriarch nodded: "So I want you to go to the Prefecture City quietly, first meet your son and get closer to him. When the time is right, then we can make his relationship with our Chen family public."

"Uncle, if you want to go, you can go yourself. I, Chen Shi'an, cannot possibly travel thousands of miles to the Prefecture City." Chen Shi'an got up and said, "I, Chen Shi'an, don't have any big ambitions in this life, but I will definitely not do anything that will send me to my death."

Saying that, Chen Shi'an walked out.

"There are often merchant caravans going to the Prefecture City. It's not as dangerous as you said." The old patriarch said quickly.

"If it's not dangerous, you can go yourself. I'm not going anyway." Chen Shi'an had already walked out the door, ignoring the patriarch.

"You, you, you..."

The old patriarch was so angry that his face was ugly, but he couldn't do anything about it. He didn't have the right to force the head of the second house to go to the Prefecture City.

"If that's the case, then let's wait." The old patriarch sat down. Next to the candle, his face was uncertain, "Maybe Chen Qi will die in Dongming Mountain's hands in a few days."

"It's not too late to go to the Prefecture City after we see the situation clearly." The old patriarch thought to himself.

*******

Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, more than three months had passed since Xu Jingming killed the Earth Demon Zhang Xiu.

Early morning, the sky was dimly lit. "Whoosh."

In a river in the Prefecture City, a stream of water came ashore and condensed into a figure on the bank, a green-clothed man with a birthmark on his face.

He walked step by step. At first, there were still water stains under his feet, but later he was like an ordinary person.

"It's been a long time since I've been to the Prefecture City." Qinghu Demon God looked at the surrounding scenery. Some people who got up early were already in the distance.

"It has been more than three months since my brother Zhang Xiu was killed. It's time for me to take action." Qinghu Demon God walked leisurely all the way. He completely restrained his aura. The more powerful the demon, the harder it is to be discovered when restraining its aura.

With the strength of Qinghu Demon God, even if a fifth-realm Demon Subduer used spells to investigate with his aura completely restrained, it would be difficult to discover him.

This is also why the patrolling envoy Zhang Xiu dared to move around frequently in the Prefecture City.

As long as he doesn't take action, the possibility of exposure is very low.

"According to the information from Dongming Mountain, the Demon Subduer Wu Ming lives in the mansion in front of him." Qinghu Demon God looked at the mansion in the distance. He had walked all the way here, and it was already dawn. "Now, I just need to wait for him to come out."

Qinghu Demon God glanced at it, turned around and checked into a nearby inn, waiting patiently. Su Dan Novel Network

Qinghu Demon God waited patiently. Mouth

One day, two days, three days... five days... ten days...

At first, Qinghu Demon God was very patient, but gradually, he began to suspect that the information was wrong.

"People around me say that is the residence of the Demon Subduer Wu Ming." Qinghu Demon God looked, "But why doesn't he ever come out? He just stays at home all the time. Doesn't he get bored?"

Qinghu Demon God sat in the teahouse, drinking tea, waiting boredly.

After waiting for so long, he naturally had to continue waiting!

"It's Mr. Wu."

"Mr. Wu can take on light duty."

Suddenly, many people in the teahouse noticed.

"Huh?"

Qinghu Demon God, who was drinking tea boredly, twitched his ears, and immediately looked up, and immediately saw the mansion in the distance, a young man with a gun pouch on his back and a servant walking out. The young man's appearance... was exactly the same as the one drawn in the Dongming Mountain intelligence.

"Wu Ming, he's finally out." Qinghu Demon God only felt excited, he had been waiting for too long.

This prey has finally appeared!

........

Xu Jingming and Wu Qi walked out of the mansion gate together.

"Young master, you should go out more often." Wu Qi said, "It's been more than half a month, and you haven't taken a step out of the door. This won't do."

"I know, Uncle Qi." Xu Jingming smiled, "I'm in seclusion, I need to focus more on comprehending the Demon Subduing secret technique."

"I don't understand the Demon Subduing secret technique."

Wu Qi said, "But I know that in this life, people should enjoy life more. That's what the young lady did back then. She exhausted her efforts for the Chen family, but how did the Chen family repay her? Even you, young master, were kicked out."

"Yes, yes, I will go out more often in the future." Xu Jingming said.

He had been in seclusion recently because of the supernatural power Star God Body. After killing Zhang Xiu, he naturally studied "Light Chapter" every day, and his accumulation became deeper and deeper. The supernatural power Five Thunder Technique naturally went a step further, reaching the combination of three thunderbolts! The supernatural power Five Thunder Technique reached the 'minor success' realm.

However, the Star God Body was still only at the supernatural power entry level.

The Star God Body was clearly the one he had spent the most effort on, but the progress was slow. Xu Jingming was a little unconvinced. He went into seclusion and pondered, and after being in seclusion for more than half a month, he finally broke through to the 'minor success' realm today.

"Young master, which restaurant do you want to go to for lunch?" Wu Qi asked.

"Let's go to the one in the north of the city, their pasta is excellent." Xu Jingming was already a little greedy just thinking about it.

The two chatted and walked towards the north of the city.

But they didn't realize that among the many bustling pedestrians on the street, there was also a man in blue with a saber, following distantly two or three hundred meters behind.
