Wei Ming never thought he would have the chance to sit in a special flight in his lifeti.
This is the investigation team’s special flight.
He looked at Zhang Xiaoyi and Master Zhang, who were sitting by the side with their eyes closed, feeling a bit of admiration.
This person is a genuine cultivator, whom even the investigation team dares not to disrespect.
In fact, the investigation team had to coax him for a long ti to persuade him to visit the Imperial Capital.
Eventually, the team leader played on the the of the safety of all lives under heaven, which convinced this descendant of Shu Mountain to head to the Imperial Capital to et an influential figure.
This is truly a capable person.
Unlike himself, who, after uttering a few speculative comnts, was listed as an abnormal individual.
Spiritual Energy Revival?
It’s just sothing he randomly ca up with.
Having read too many novels, could there still be such a good thing?
It’s clear that the Imperial Capital is eager for knowledge about Spiritual Energy Revival and cultivators.
Am I about to visit the Imperial Capital?
The Imperial Capital must be really desperate.
If that influential figure dares to et him, Wei Ming dares to let that figure know what it ans to waste ti.
As the plane lands, a black business car is already waiting at the airport, taking the group directly to the Imperial City Public Security Bureau.
Wei Ming was quite excited.
He could guess who he was going to et.
Sure enough, the director of the public security bureau, often seen on TV, walked through the door.
Wei Ming stood up, so nervous that he was shaking, stamring:
"Elder He, hello, I, I am Wei Ming......"
Elder He had an aura of quiet authority, and after sitting down, he waved his hand and said:
"Comrade Xiaowei, no need to be formal, there are a few things I’d like to ask you."
For the first ti, Wei Ming t such a high-ranking official and felt his mouth dry up:
"Elder He, please give your instructions."
Elder He chuckled and said:
"How much do you know about the Spiritual Energy Revival?
And how much do you know about cultivators?"
Wei Ming forced a bitter smile:
"Leader, actually those were just wild guesses on my part."
Elder He frowned.
Wild guesses?
Is it true or false?
Elder He took so ti to respond:
"I’d like to hear these wild guesses, too."
...
Half an hour later, in the eting room.
Elder He went to another eting room and stood at the door.
He was pondering the words Wei Ming had said.
That kid didn’t seem to be lying.
It was most likely made-up nonsense!
He felt a toothache.
Elder He collected his thoughts and entered the room.
Several n in black with slightly bulging waists stood in the corners of the eting room.
The cultivator Zhang Xiaoyi was dozing off in his chair.
Team Leader Zhuang Yu sat across from Zhang Xiaoyi, responsible for the reception.
Elder He waved at the n in black:
"Xiaozhuang stays, the rest of you can leave."
The n in black exchanged glances, looking troubled.
This powerful cultivator, was he friend or foe, being left alone with the leaders?
Wouldn’t there be a problem?
Zhang Xiaoyi gave the n in black a mocking look:
"Is this how you treat guests?
Afraid of ? Then should I leave?"
Zhang Xiaoyi had entered monastic life from a young age, with a master who was an eccentric to the core, so he had no concept of worldly rank.
No matter how high-ranking an official was, it wouldn’t pressure him in the slightest.
The investigation team’s leader, that middle-aged woman, grew stern:
"Did you not hear what the leader said?"
The n in black, seeing the leader’s anger, finally exited, casting a wary glance at Zhang Xiaoyi at the door.
Team Leader Zhuang apologized with a smile:
"Master Zhang, please don’t mind, it’s just their job."
Elder He sighed:
"The Shu Mountain gate was occupied and turned into the Qingfeng Temple, enduring such a great injustice.
No place to lodge a complaint and no extraordinary ans used for revenge, this shows Master’s chivalrous deanor.
Master has hidden from the secular world for so many years, and for the sake of the Daoist Sect’s reputation, reveals his identity to strike down the East Sakura ninjas.
To et Master is to et a person of loyalty and righteousness.
For private matters, one is unwilling to act, but for the honor of Xia Country, one shows thunderous ans.
Shushan Disciples, the na is not in vain, this old man is impressed!"
Zhang Xiaoyi was stunned.
Is that what he thought?
In fact, Elder He’s words were a bit exaggerated.
Shu Mountain Daoist Temple was actually an unauthorized construction, without legitimate certification, and its demolition was not unreasonable.
It was the South Sea’s publicity director and that Fushan who were coveting the Shu Mountain Daoist Temple, easily acquiring certification and turning it into Qingfeng Temple, which was the real issue of the authorities.
Elder He gave a thumbs up:
"Every disciple of Shu Mountain takes it upon themselves to maintain world peace, Master Zhang’s conduct truly shows the style of a Shushan Disciple!"
Everyone likes flattery.
But it depends on who is giving the flattery.
Such an influential figure praising suddenly, it must not be anything good.
Zhang Xiaoyi cautiously asked:
"Do you have sothing to say, feel free to speak."
Elder He’s face turned serious:
"In that case, I will be straightforward.
I hope Master Zhang will erge for the sake of the world and beco an advisor for Xia Country’s abnormal events!"
Zhang Xiaoyi frowned:
"Abnormal events?"
Elder He signaled with his eyes, and Team Leader Zhuang handed a docunt to Zhang Xiaoyi:
"Master, please take a look at this."
The docunt detailed recent strange occurrences in the South Sea, such as urban felines attacking humans, bird riots, and giant bald eagles battling crows, among others.
As Zhang Xiaoyi looked deeper, he grew more alard.
Are these the legendary demons?
It turns out, it wasn’t just him encountering strange things, such bizarre events had been happening all along.
He had seen so of the events online, but the authorities’ announcent said it was for ga promotional videos, so he hadn’t paid much attention.
It seems those so-called ’rumors’ were all true.
Zhang Xiaoyi frowned.
His master had said, Shushan Disciples take up the responsibility of maintaining peace in the world, but with demons running amok, should he intervene or not?
Back then, he didn’t have the capability, but now he was a true cultivator.
Elder He closely observed Zhang Xiaoyi’s expression.
He was a top figure in the security system, with a keen ability to read microexpressions that was unmatched.
A subtle hint of a smile flashed across Elder He’s eyes as he said:
"Master Zhang could serve as an anomaly consultant in the security system.
Though without real power, it is a deputy director-level position, with full welfare and benefits.
Additionally, Qingfeng Temple will be reverted to Shu Mountain Daoist Temple, and the certification papers will be handed over to Master Zhang.
Master Zhang can freely recruit disciples, and any necessary matters, as long as they are legal and logical, the authorities will fully support."
Elder He’s words were a blend of both righteousness and persuasion, benefits and pressure.
According to historians, Shushan Disciples take on the duty of maintaining world peace, using this as a reason to enlist Zhang Xiaoyi’s service to the authorities.
This could be considered a form of moral coercion.
Secondly, he offered Zhang Xiaoyi many benefits.
Whether it was the deputy director-level position or the authorities’ support for Shu Mountain, it was all to entice.
It also indirectly inford Zhang Xiaoyi that Xia Country was still under the control of the authorities, and that the developnt of Shu Mountain could not be separated from their support.
The policy for cultivators undertaken by the authorities is — appeasent.
With what Elder He said, Zhang Xiaoyi had no reason to refuse indeed.
In just a few words, Zhang Xiaoyi was already tempted.
The official title was of no importance to Zhang Xiaoyi; he cared whether Shu Mountain could spread its fa, which was his master’s wish.
However, he hesitated because he had only gained enlightennt not long ago and truly did not have much knowledge about abnormal events.
Elder He could not understand what Zhang Xiaoyi was contemplating.
Was his sincerity still insufficient?
To bring this cultivator into the fold, Elder He was prepared to step up his efforts:
"Regarding abnormal events, after conducting research, the authorities have decided to establish a special departnt."
Zhang Xiaoyi questioned:
"A special departnt?"
Elder He’s eyes shone brightly:
"Yes, a special departnt, the Security Administration!"
