Stowing the bead, Lü Zhong activated his Qi Observation Skill.
He scanned his surroundings and saw that no Demon Monsters had been missed.
Still, he felt uneasy. 'Demon Monsters aren't intelligent,' he thought. 'They can't easily hide their malice.' He subtly cast Malice Detection. Only after confirming there was no reaction did he step out of the Demon Cultivator's hideout.
Alerted by the sounds of the earlier combat, the Yizhou City Government Office had already dispatched soldiers to cordon off a large area. A portly cultivator was now pacing back and forth at the entrance.
Seeing Lü Zhong emerge, he immediately hurried over.
"Li Yun of Yizhou City, greetings, Inspector!"
"Inspector" was the title Lü Zhong was using for this trip, one that granted him discretionary authority.
"The demon threat has been eliminated. Clean up the scene," Lü Zhong said, his expression placid.
