Lorne did not know who Zhu Yuehong was. Although he had heard some legends about this woman, he did not specifically remember anything about her. However, he recognized the clothes she was wearing.

‘Someone from the Demon Suppression Division?’ Lorne thought.

The Demon Suppression Division was a department set up specially in the capital. It was responsible for handling large-scale and high-level demon affairs. The lowest-level member of the department was the yellow level demon suppression emissary.

Even the yellow level demon suppression envoy was at least a level-5 spirit envoy, and most of them were the best among their peers.

The black level above the yellow level had powerful level-6 spirit envoys, and a few black level demon suppression envoys even had powerful special talents.

Previously, it had been mentioned that the strength of spirit envoys varied from level-1 to -9, but there were levels above level-9. Lorne had yet to understand what they were called.

After all, the most powerful city lord in Jiang City was only a level-9 spirit envoy.

The person in front of him was an earth grade demon suppression envoy!

“Madam from the Demon Suppression Division, may I know why you’re looking for me?” Lorne asked.

At this moment, Zhu Yuehong was sizing up Lorne. She smiled and said, “Little Brother, your elves seem to be very special. Can you summon them for me to take a look?”

Lorne did not say anything. Seeing Lorne’s silence, she smiled again.

“Don’t misunderstand. I’m just curious. Although Light Elves are rare, they aren’t rare in the central region. Most of them have healing and purification abilities, but yours seem to be different.”

After a pause, the woman said again, “You can destroy a level-2 illusion-type demon so quickly in just two days after awakening. An ordinary elf wouldn’t be able to do it.”

Lorne’s heart trembled. He had indeed not thought of this. An ordinary person could only awaken a magic lamp once in their lifetime, and only one elf could be summoned. He had indeed summoned two at the same time, and as his strength increased in the future, he would be able to awaken and summon them again. If this ability was spied on by someone, Lorne would face a disaster.

Just as Lorne’s heart was heavy, the woman in front of him said again, “Forget it as you’re so stingy. Everyone has their own secrets, but if you want to keep them, you have to have the corresponding strength. This is my card. Take it.”

Zhu Yuehong handed a small red card to Lorne.

“If you encounter any trouble in the future, you can come to the Demon Suppression Division to look for me. Even if I’m not there, with this card, the people of the Demon Suppression Division will help you. Alright, work hard. I hope that the next time we meet, your strength will not be at this level.”

After saying that, Zhu Yuehong turned around and left the villa under Lorne’s puzzled gaze.

Why on earth did this woman come? Lorne lowered his head and looked at the card in his hand. His mind was full of question marks.

Lorne was the only one left in the villa. He walked around and found that the amenities in the villa was very complete. Lorne took out his identity card and issued a request to clean the villa. As soon as it was issued, it was accepted.

‘It’s very convenient,’ Lorne thought.

The technology in this world was not too shabby. There were still some satellites in the sky. In the base city, there was also a local area network. However, the communication between city to city required satellites, and the satellites were all from a hundred years ago. Some of them were even old and it was very expensive to use them. In the base city, they could use the local area network to communicate.

At the entrance of the villa.

Soon, an aunt came with cleaning tools. When she saw Lorne, the aunt was a little surprised as she had never seen such a young man living in the villa. She did not communicate with Lorne. After entering, she began to do what she was supposed to do.

In the base city, the position of a spirit envoy was far higher than that of an ordinary person. Moreover, many spirit envoys were influenced by the demons they encountered. Their personalities were a little strange and it was not easy to communicate with them. So, the aunt quietly began to clean up.

…

In an elegantly decorated living room.

Zhu Yuehong, who had just left the villa, appeared here at this moment. She stood in front of a man in black who was sitting and drinking tea, with an obedient look on her face.

“Teacher, I’ve already gone to meet Lorne according to your instructions.”

“How do you feel after meeting him?”

The black-clothed man had a faint smile on the corner of his mouth as he asked in a seemingly casual manner.

“He’s a very outstanding young man. At such a young age, he has the strength to rival a second-level demon. His future is limitless,” Zhu Yuehong said.

The black-clothed man laughed when he heard this. He looked out of the window and said, “He’s already a level-2 when he first awakened. His talent and strength are indeed not bad, but it’s only in Jiang City. If it were any other grade-B or even grade-A city, he would only be considered average. Yuehong, why do you say that his future is limitless?”

Hearing this, Zhu Yuehong smiled and said, “I don’t dare to lie to teacher. Outstanding talent is one of the criteria for success, but it’s not all. Whether it’s talent or temperament, Lorne can be considered high-class. As long as nothing unexpected happens, he’ll definitely have great achievements in the future!”

The black-clothed man continued. “You think highly of him. There are many things that cannot be judged by what you see on the surface. He should be more than that. You should observe him more.”

As he spoke, the black-clothed man got up from his seat and walked to the front. With his back facing Zhu Yuehong, he said, “The elf that he awakened isn’t as simple as light attributes. During the awakening ceremony, I felt a dark aura flash past.”

“Teacher, why don’t I directly test him?” Zhu Yuehong stepped forward and said.

“You’ll do it?”

The black-clothed man looked at his disciple with a strange expression.

“I’m a lover of talent, not a killer of talent. If I ask you to do it, does he have a way to live? Gold will always shine hence it’s unnecessary to do superfluous things.”

Then, he turned around and said with a serious expression, “Is there any progress on that matter?”

Zhu Yuehong’s expression froze when she heard this and she immediately shook her head.

“There are no clues at the moment. We only know that the other party appeared in Jiang City, but he disappeared very quickly. We don’t know where he is at the moment.”

The black-clothed man frowned slightly when he heard this.

“That old thing didn’t hesitate to carry a bounty on his back to steal that thing. He must have a motive.”

“But he didn’t go anywhere. He just came to Jiang City. He knew he was wanted, but he still dared to show his face. There must be something he wanted in Jiang City.”

“Continue to investigate for me. I must find the whereabouts of that old man!”

Zhu Yuehong bowed and accepted the order. “Yes, disciple will send more people to investigate!”

The black-clothed man waved his hand and asked Zhu Yuehong to leave..
