Chapter 78 - 77 Li Hongyi’s News
In a room at the Chu State Demon Slayer Bureau, the scent of ink wafts through the air as a middle-aged figure diligently practices calligraphy, each stroke executed with utmost care.
Practicing calligraphy helps to calm the mind and cultivate one’s character. Cultivators must avoid impatience and restlessness. Especially those in the Demon Slayer Bureau, who have witnessed much darkness, require patience. He is not young anymore, and if he can’t advance further, his life might just end here.
At that moment, someone knocked and entered, bowing, "Sir, someone outside says they have urgent matters to discuss with you."
"Tell him to convey it to you," Sun Qian replied.
"I did tell him, but he insists that it’s extremely urgent, concerning the Wanxiang Sect and a Great Demon outside the city, and must only be discussed with you." The person continued.
Sun Qian frowned and said, "Bring him here."
"Yes, sir." The person withdrew and soon returned with a man, who turned out to be Yin Qing.
"Yin Qing meets the Vice Commandant." Yin Qing bowed, but the other person continued to write quietly, ignoring him, while an intangible pressure fell on Yin Qing.
These influential figures can exert pressure with just a casual act. Of course, this is due to their status. As the Vice Commandant of the Chu State Demon Slayer Bureau, Sun Qian was a prestigious figure in Chuzhou, respected even by powerful families. Crushing small fry like him would be as easy as crushing an ant.
A moment later, Sun Qian put down his pen, raised his head to look at Yin Qing, and asked, "What’s the matter?"
Yin Qing glanced at the person beside him. Sun Qian gave a signal, and that person bowed and withdrew.
