"Half-demon?"
Li Qian, with his exceptional hearing and spiritual perception cloaking the area, naturally caught the startled exclamation from Chu Ping, the thousand-household official of Xuanjian Bureau.
At this moment, an unexpected event occurred.
The hideous humanoid creature suddenly turned and fled, its speed astonishingly fast.
"Huh?"
Li Qian's face showed surprise.
What's happening?
Judging by the ferocity it showed earlier, it seemed as if it was about to wreak havoc everywhere.
Why did it suddenly run away?
Li Qian hastily drew his sword and used his qinggong to give chase.
He couldn't let this half-demon escape.
Otherwise, how would he complete his task?
As the humanoid creature fled, everyone at the scene let out a sigh of relief.
"Master Yan, quickly stop Li Qian from chasing it; that's a half-demon..."
Chu Ping, the thousand-household official, said anxiously.
He knew from the Xuanjian Bureau headquarters' archives just how strong a half-demon was.
