Seeing the head of the provincial capital smiling and treating him with such courtesy and respect, Chen Xuan knew that Xie Guobin must have told Mr. Gu the detailed story of how the case was solved.
Only by learning that Chen Xuan had employed mystic arts to annihilate the Thousand-Faced Spider Demon—and was thus a legendary enlightened master—could Mr. Gu justify such deference.

The serial murders committed by the monstrous killer had been the talk of the entire province for some time.

Hearing Mr. Gu credit Chen Xuan with solving such a major case surprised many.
