My Wife is A Sword God

After the middle-aged man moved away in the direction of the Demon Slaying Department, Qin Feng felt the sudden decrease in pressure throughout his body. He breathed a sigh of relief and asked the person beside him, “Sir Si, that person just now, could he be…”

Si Zheng nodded and sighed, “One of the Twelve Divine Generals guarding the Southern Region, Spear Immortal Sima Kong. This is the first time I’ve seen him in person. He’s not even thirty-five yet and has reached the third rank of divine martial arts, comprehending the fifth level of spear intent, the Realm of a Myriad Gods.”

“It is said that in the cold ice lake of the Southern Region years ago, a seven cycle calamity force ice dragon caused havoc. Spear Immortal Sima Kong personally arrived, turned the entire lake of ice into a spear, pierced through the ice dragon, and fixed it to the bottom of the lake, creating a marvel that still exists today.”

“Since then, the name of Sword Immortal resounded throughout the entire Daqian.”

Qin Feng gasped at the vivid image, finding it incredibly awe-inspiring and exhilarating.

“To reach such heights before the age of thirty-five, wouldn’t the future be even more boundless? By the way, Sir Si, how old are you now?” Qin Feng curiously asked.

Si Zheng ignored the question, looking up at the platform. “Has Yang He not finished explaining the mission? It’s taking too long.”

Suddenly, Cang Feilan, who had been silent, spoke up, “Well, he’s over thirty-five.”

Si Zheng’s face stiffened, and Qin Feng didn’t know how to respond. The atmosphere became awkward for a moment.

Qin Feng looked toward the sound and saw, inside the Demon Slaying Department, a nine-story tower with a golden light and a dragon-shaped phantom circling around it, roaring with its head held high.

“What’s that?” Qin Feng asked.

Si Zheng raised an eyebrow, saying, “That’s the landmark building of the Demon Slaying Department in Heavenly City, called the Dragon Protection Tower. It’s also the place where the Dragon Protection Monument is stored. Spear Immortal was just returning the Dragon Protection Monument to its place.”

“Can such a commotion be caused just by returning the Dragon Protection Monument?” Qin Feng was surprised and asked the question that had been lingering in his mind, “Lord Si, is the Dragon Protection Monument really just a tool to suppress the luck of a region?”

Si Zheng pondered for a moment before slowly speaking, “Since you want to know, I’ll tell you. Suppressing luck is not groundless. This luck is, in fact, the Dragon Vein.”

“The birthplace of the Dragon Vein, blessed by the heavens, allows rapid advancement in cultivation for both human cultivators and demonic creatures. The Dragon Protection Monument is the treasure that suppresses the spirit of the Dragon Vein.”

“There are a total of thirty-two Heavenly City’s. Are all these places the birthplaces of the Dragon Vein?” Qin Feng asked curiously.

“That’s right. Apart from the thirty-two Heavenly Cities, it is said that the Imerial City is the largest gathering place for the Dragon Vein. However, no one knows how many Dragon Veins are specifically there.”

Qin Feng wanted to ask more, but Yang He, who had entered the building on the platform earlier, arrived at this moment, rushing up the steps. “Sorry, everyone. Due to the many things to explain, it took some time. Follow me now.”

Three people followed Yang He into the building on the high platform, and the interior decorations were even more magnificent than the exterior.

Qin Feng opened his mouth to speak, but was warned by Si Zheng with a meaningful glance. However, a hint of envy flashed in the latter’s eyes.

The Demon Slayer Division in Heavenly City was indeed incomparable to the small local places like Jinyang City.

As the group reached a spacious hall, they looked inside and saw an old man with gray hair, wearing a red robe with leopard patterns, leaning over a desk and reading official documents.

He was the head of the Demon Slayer Division in Qiyuan City, a third-ranked military official, and one of the thirty-six stars, named Zhou Kai.

Zhou Kai, hearing the commotion, placed the document he was browsing aside. The stack of documents had already reached his head, and Si Zheng’s eyes twitched as he looked at them.

Damn it, the Demon Slayer Department is responsible for slaying demons and ghosts. Why does he have to review so many documents? Fortunately, I’m not working in Heavenly City. Si Zheng’s envy for Heavenly City disappeared, and he actually thought Jinyang City was pretty good.

Zhou Kai raised his head, and Si Zheng immediately clasped his fists and said, “Si Zheng, the head of the Demon Slayer Department in Jinyang City, pays respects to Lord Zhou.”

“No need for formalities.” The gray-haired old man nodded and looked to the other side. His gaze swept over Cang Feilan, and he made a soft sound of surprise but didn’t linger.

Finally, his eyes fell on Qin Feng, and he asked, “Are you the Qin physician mentioned by Yang He, capable of treating the Heart Devouring Gu disease?”

Qin Feng respectfully replied, “Yes, I am.”

Zhou Kai’s eyes sparkled, and after a moment, he said, “Powerful spiritual soul, but without the aura of Yin. It seems you have cultivated the Literature Saint Dao Lineage, but it’s rare to see one who uses medical skills to pursue the Literature Saint Dao Lineage.”

“You’re mistaken,” Qin Feng replied. Ya’an had mentioned the matter of pursuing the Literature Saint Dao Lineage before, and Qin Feng wasn’t interested in explaining his situation.

Zhou Kai shook his head. “I don’t underestimate you. Those who cultivate the Way of the Literary Saint usually study the ways of governing a country and military strategy to achieve higher realms. They often look down on the minor path of healing and saving lives.”

“However, life is precious. Even if one possesses immense wealth, saving a life should not be considered a minor path.”

Maybe because practicing medicine couldn’t save a country? Qin Feng thought sarcastically and recalled someone from his previous life. He wondered if that person had said something like this.

“Now that I can see a Literary Saint cultivator who pursues the Way through medical skills, I am pleased.”

After praising Qin Feng, Zhou Kai’s expression became serious. “Considering the current situation in Qiyuan City, I assume you’ve already learned something before coming here. I just want to ask you, do you have the confidence to remove those Heart Devouring Gu from the people?”

“Sorry, Lord Zhou, due to the large number of people, I don’t have much confidence,” Qin Feng replied truthfully.

“Don’t worry, I understand that this is a difficult task. If you have any requests, feel free to mention them. The Demon Slayer Department will try to fulfill your needs,” Zhou Kai promised.

Qin Feng pondered for a moment and looked troubled. “I will do my best, but I’m afraid I may lack the ability.”

“If you can handle this matter well, not only will the Demon Slayer Department owe you a favor, but even the Governor’s Mansion will owe you one. If you have any other requests by then, you can also bring them up with the Governor’s Mansion. I believe that as long as it’s not too excessive, the Governor will agree.”

Governor? A dispatched official from the central government, the highest authority in Heavenly City? If that’s the case, then opening a few taverns in Qiyuan City should be a piece of cake, right?

Qin Feng was excited in his heart and immediately said with sincerity, “As long as all the physicians in the city are gathered, I am confident that I can teach them how to remove the Heart Devouring Gu from the people’s bodies. This way, we can live up to Lord Zhou’s trust and cure all the people in the city in a short time!”

“You young man really don’t know how to restrain yourself.” Si Zheng rubbed his forehead and shook his head helplessly.

Cang Feilan, upon hearing this, glanced at Qin Feng, a hint of strange expression flashing in her eyes.

And Zhou Kai also revealed a smile that seemed ambiguous on his face.

“Good, I will arrange for people to gather all the physicians in the city. Now you can—”

“Lord Zhou, please wait a moment,” Qin Feng interrupted.

“What else?”

“It’s like this. In order to safely escort the Dragon Protection Monument back, the junior used the only life-saving secret technique. I don’t know if Lord Zhou can compensate the junior for this.”

“Is there such a thing?” Zhou Kai looked at Yang He, who immediately nodded.

“Since the situation is true, I will naturally give you some compensation. I wonder what grade your life-saving secret technique is?”

Qin Feng’s face lit up. “I’m not sure about the specific grade, but I think it’s not much different from that Red Flame Fire Feather.”

The air suddenly quieted.

After a moment, Zhou Kai took out a document, then waved his right hand. “Curing the people in the city is the top priority. Yang He, why are you still standing here? Take these people to handle urgent matters!”

“Ah? Oh.” Yang Heng was stunned for a moment, then turned and said, “Let’s go, everyone.”

Qin Feng was dumbfounded and asked again, “Lord Zhou, what about the compensation for the junior?”

“I am currently busy with official duties. We will discuss all matters after the recovery of the city’s people.”

“You shameless guy, even want to freeload on a junior’s belongings.” Qin Feng smirked, silently cursing in his mind.
