Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey! Chapter 1970 - 463: Chen Jie – Demon Slayer Monk, Even a New Iron Head Won’t Help! _2

The blood-spattered stone hit the wall behind it with a smack, embedding itself directly.

The guards, who were previously lackadaisical, were now spurred into action, drawing their swords. But just as they prepared to resist, a figure suddenly emerged from the side, swiftly rotating a long saber in hand, and in the blink of an eye, eliminated all of them.

These guys didn’t even have time to scream.

Wang Baobao sheathed his long saber and glanced at Chen Jie, his eyes carrying a hint of seeking praise, clearly meaning, "How about my saber technique?"

Chen Jie gave an affirmative response, but these guards were only at the Energy Transformation level, and you, a Molten Furnace Realm master, took pride in killing a bunch of mere Energy Transformation guards?

However, Chen Jie said nothing, nor did he wound Wang Baobao’s pitiful self-esteem.

At this moment, Chen Jie, Wang Baobao, and Zhao Ya stepped forward to untie the old Taoist and the little Taoist. The old Taoist continuously expressed his gratitude, while the little Taoist, once freed, immediately ran over to the guard who tried to behead him and kicked him three times.

Seeing this, Chen Jie remarked, "The man’s already dead, no need to go overboard?"

To this, the little Taoist replied, "If I don’t vent on him with a few kicks, the Heart Demon will resurface, and that’s not okay!"

With that, the little Taoist clasped his hands toward Chen Jie and said, "Thank you all for your righteous rescue."

Seeing his adult-like demeanor, the old Taoist quickly said, "Don’t mind him, my disciple is just like this."

He then cupped his fist in gratitude, and Chen Jie returned the gesture, saying, "No need to thank me, Taoist. Besides, I have something I wish to inquire about, if you could shed some light on it!"

Upon hearing this, the little Taoist immediately responded, "Go ahead, good man, ask away. We’ll tell you whatever we know."

Chen Jie was fond of the little Taoist’s personality and asked, "Have you seen any nobles from the city being captured, led by an old man?"

"Yes, they’re locked in our woodshed."

"Oh, that’s excellent."

Chen Jie and his companions exchanged glances, and the little Taoist asked, "Are you the guards of those nobles?"

"No, we only came to find him."

The little Taoist said, "If it’s not a life-or-death bond, you’d better not go in. There’s a powerful Evil Monk inside. I saw him punch and flatten a boulder. You’re good people, don’t end your lives in there."

Chen Jie chuckled and asked, "Evil Monk, what does he look like?"

The little Taoist replied, "He looks ferocious, definitely not a good person. Oh, and he has an iron head!"

"Iron head?"

Hearing this, Wang Baobao on the side spoke up, "This little Taoist, don’t talk nonsense. How can someone have an iron head?"

The little Taoist was immediately displeased, "How clueless you are. I’m a monk; would I lie? He truly has an iron head."

Seeing the little Taoist’s anger, Chen Jie fell into contemplation. An iron head... could it be him!

Chen Jie thought of someone, a person who once narrowly escaped death from his hands. With this thought, Chen Jie looked to Zhao Ya and Wang Baobao and said, "The little Taoist probably isn’t lying, and I think I know who it is!"

Hearing this, Wang Baobao looked at Chen Jie and asked, "Who?"

Chen Jie said, "The Living Buddha’s second disciple, the Demon Slayer Monk!"

"Demon Slayer Monk!"

Wang Baobao murmured, "It’s actually him!"

Zhao Ya said, "This Demon Slayer Monk won’t be easy to handle; he’s also at the Melt God Realm power level."

Chen Jie said, "Indeed, he’s a tough one, but I should still be able to handle him. You all stay out here, I’ll go in alone, and you take the little Taoist and others to shelter."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Ya nodded lightly, "Alright."

Zhao Ya knew that in such high-stakes battles, if she insisted on participating, not only would she be unable to assist, but she might also become a burden to Chen Jie, so she chose not to participate.

She voluntarily stepped back to give Chen Jie the maximum room to perform.

Chen Jie exchanged a glance with the two, then leapt into the courtyard. There were still some guards inside the courtyard, but Chen Jie, being a Melt God Realm master, concealed his presence so well that they didn’t notice Chen Jiusi’s figure.

With that, Chen Jie quickly confirmed the location, double-checking the direction of the woodshed described by the little Taoist, and then used his superior Qinggong to swiftly head toward the woodshed.

Meanwhile, inside the woodshed!

A few female captives sobbed, while an old man sat in the middle. He appeared quite elderly, likely around sixty, but his spirit was good. Despite being muddy-faced with disheveled hair, he still looked energetic.

He angrily berated the women beside him, "What kind of spectacle are you making with all this crying!"

The women, scolded, looked up with faces full of grievance and said, "Master, we’re about to die, can’t we even cry?"

"Die? Who said we’re going to die?"

The old man angrily shouted, "I am the Holy Emperor’s uncle and the Prime Minister of Daqian, who dares to kill me."

Creaaak~

As the old man yelled, the door suddenly opened, and in came a Great Monk, chuckling, "Lord Prime Minister, I could hear your voice from outside."

Hama looked at the newcomer and scolded, "Demon Slayer Monk, you have quite the guts to even dare to capture me. Do you intend to rebel?"

The Demon Slayer Monk chuckled at this and said, "Old man, don’t be so arrogant. We’re in the wilderness here; if the Great Buddha gets angry and tears you to pieces, there’s nothing you can do, isn’t there!"

Upon hearing these words, Hama was further enraged, "Demon Slayer Monk, you truly have rebelled. Do you know what a crime it is to kidnap the current Prime Minister? And you even plan to kill the Prime Minister. Such treachery might be beyond even the Living Buddha’s ability to protect you!"
