Chapter 23 No More Pretending, Show My Cards

“Fine. I wanted to spend time with you guys as an ordinary person. In that case, I’ll stop pretending and lay my cards on the table.”

“It’s fine to register it, but you have to hide the fact that you killed the Yama. At the very least, you can’t announce it to the public.”

Feng Ling made his offer.

“Why?” Zeng Shiwu was confused.

Beside him, Lei Ting was not too surprised. He could vaguely guess what was going on.

“To you, taking out these two so-called Level Eight Yama is a meritorious deed, but to a lone person like me, it’s trouble. Anyone who can go up against official organizations like yours shouldn’t be fighting alone, right?” “At this point, I’ll get straight to the point. I was also the one who took out the guy who looked like them back in Divine Weapon Town. So I have reason to believe this is a unique race. Or a peculiar organization.”

‘I don’t want this kind of trouble coming my way. Is that clear?’

“Ha, you were also the one who dealt with the Yama in Divine Weapon Town? I see…” Zeng Shiwu nodded, but then a doubt appeared in her mind. “Then why don’t you just join the Peaceful Spirit Bureau?”

???

Feng Ling was stunned. What was going on?

I’ve hidden my strength for fear of trouble and you want me to join you instead?

‘What do you mean? Would this spare me from future worries?’

At the side, Lei Ting also exclaimed. This little girl was indeed that person’s disciple. Her train of thought was really…

Want someone to give you thirty-two likes!

If he could pull such an expert into the Peaceful Spirit Bureau, its strength would definitely increase greatly!

Come on, awesome!

“I don’t have much interest in that sort of thing either. Let’s leave it at that.”

“By the way, I’ve already dealt with the demon beasts that inexplicably escaped previously. But if I’m not wrong, these strange occurences of this area will continue. I hope you can find out the reason as soon as possible.”

Feng Ling waved them both off.

The east wall was half down. He had to mend it quickly.

However, he took this opportunity to continue the “Courtyard Transformation Plan”.

Zeng Shiwu did not continue the conversation as he watched Feng Ling start to get busy, but he could tell from her rolling eyes that she still had ideas.

The Peaceful Spirit Bureau was indeed lacking in strength afterall.

It took another 20 minutes for the rescue team to arrive, along with the logistics personnel from the Peaceful Spirit Bureau.

They were dedicated to cleaning up the battlefield,

After an hour, the vicinity of the small courtyard finally quietened down.

However, this entire area had also been surrounded.

Lei Ting had no problem with that. Feng Ling had arranged for that and they weren’t going to affect his normal life.

Besides, he would be very busy later on. He did not have the time to care about those demon beasts that had suddenly appeared. It was best if someone could deal with them.

The courtyard modification plan was a random idea that came to Feng Ling.

The ultimate goal was to build this small courtyard into a “fortress”.

Originally, it was just for fun and to train his smelting and casting skills at the same time.

Therefore, after completing half of it, Feng Ling paused because of funding and time.

But now it seemed that this plan was very necessary!

From the courtyard wall itself to the defensive measures, they needed to be modified. Feng Ling also plunged into the forging room.

This was a huge project. Even with Feng Ling’s speed, he had only completed the layout of the wall when night fell.

Most of the ores that Nine Rings had been tempering had been used up.

Fortunately, the wall itself was of utmost importance. After it was completed, there was no need to be too anxious about the other arrangements.

After dinner, Feng Ling did not enter the forging room again. Instead, she brought her weapon and entered the Blood-robe World.

After obtaining the divine blood, Feng Ling became more and more interested in the Blood-robe Realm.

Even though the danger was great, the gains were completely proportional.

When he killed Qing Shisan and Wang Ning today, he also thoroughly verified his thoughts.

— The higher the level of evolution, the better the rebate of Equipment Strategy.

After exhausting his soul, Feng Ling came out of the Blood-robe World.

After taking inventory, Feng Ling happily showered and went to bed.

The next morning, Feng Ling finished cultivating and headed to the Divine Weapon Town.

But not long after he opened the door, a group of people came looking for him.

“The Armament Workshop.” The old man looked at the three big words on the plaque and couldn’t help but read them out loud. “Good handwriting, really good handwriting! Just by looking at this signboard, I know that the people inside are not ordinary people.”

The door was open. Feng Ling sat behind the counter and saw the line of four men appear in the doorway. His mind raced. In the end he decided to sit tight.

After the old man finished praising, he walked into the shop, followed by Zeng Shiwu and the others.

“Can I help you, sir?” Feng Ling asked with a smile as he rose.

“My name is Chen Baisheng, and I’m the deputy director of the Peaceful Spirit Bureau in Mu Liang City. I’ve specially come to thank Boss for taking action and getting rid of evil for the people.” As he spoke, the old man took out a white leather certificate from his pocket. On it was the old man’s portrait and name.

“Oh, so it’s Chief Chen. What can’t he bear to get rid of evil for the people? He’s just helping out when he sees injustice.” When Feng Ling saw Zeng Shiwu and Thunder, she had already guessed that this old man’s identity was extraordinary. She did not expect him to be the deputy chief.

If he understood it correctly, the Peaceful Spirit Bureau was the legendary relevant department.

all v

As a deputy director of an relevant department, his status and power were probably extraordinary.

“Hahaha, Boss is really interesting!” Chen Baisheng did not have the airs of a chief at all and was filled with friendliness.

He had called another meeting the day before, after listening to Zeng Shiwu’s and Lei Ting’s reports.

And the focus of this meeting was Feng Ling.

Feng Ling was a ranked expert. Lei Ting had seen it with his own eyes.

A ranked expert was a great treasure no matter where he went. This small Divine Weapon Town actually had a hidden expert who could kill the Yama. Furthermore, he was so young…

Not thinking of a way to get him to join the Peaceful Spirit Bureau was simply a dereliction of duty as the Deputy Director!

Of course, it was not ruled out that this was a scheme from beginning to end.

The purpose of exhausting the three Yamas was to allow Feng Ling to enter Peaceful Spirit Bureau’s line of sight and join in.

Even though this price was a little high, if Feng Ling could really infiltrate Peaceful Spirit Bureau, it would be quite worth it.

But Chen Baisheng wasn’t afraid.

The Peaceful Spirit Bureau was not the Divine Shield Bureau. If it could be infiltrated so easily, they wouldn’t be known as the Night Watch of the Divine Continent.

“A few Yamas were killed with your heavy involvement, we’ll have to trouble the you to make a statement. In addition, because that demon is on the Demon Bounty List, Boss, you’ll also get a reward.”

“Oh, there’s a reward?” Feng Ling was intrigued.

“Killing demons is the same as eradicating disasters for the people. Naturally, they will be rewarded,” the old man said seriously. “Just like our Peaceful Spirit Bureau. Newcomers are paid more than fifty thousand a month with the six insurance and pension. There will be an additional bonus for every mission completed.”

“Boss, an expert like you who can kill demons on the Demon Bounty List can receive a reward corresponding to your authority every year in addition to an annual salary of one million yuan.”

“A million a year?”
