Li Ru explained everything to Xu Pingqiu. Xu Pingqiu immediately slapped his thigh in annoyance.

Although he wanted to support Zhang Youwei by being a witness to immortal cultivation, he knew that Li Ru was agitated now. He couldn’t tell her about immortal cultivation anymore. He might even be arrested himself.

Frustrated, he could only speak from another perspective, “Sister, even if Old Zhang was deceived, you shouldn’t just call the police and arrest him. What matters between husband and wife can’t be discussed properly?”

Li Ru only had tears flowing down her cheeks when she heard that, “I’m a woman. How can I control him? Let the police handle it.”

Xu Pingqiu thought for a moment and decided to scare Li Ru. He deliberately made the matter more serious, “Do you know how serious it is to join a cult in our country? Aren’t you afraid that Old Zhang will go to jail for doing this?”

Li Ru was stunned when she heard the word ‘jail’. She had no idea that he would have to go to jail for being tricked into joining a cult. Wasn’t Zhang Youwei a victim?

The doctor had already said that Zhang Youwei only had one or two months left to live.

If Zhang Youwei were to spend his last days in prison, Li Ru would probably feel guilty for the rest of her life.

Xu Pingqiu saw that his words had frightened Li Ru, so he immediately took this opportunity to follow up, “Alright, let’s hurry to the police station. He’ll be fine once we explain the matter clearly!”

Li Ru was indeed frightened. She nodded repeatedly and followed Xu Pingqiu out of the door.

The two of them soon arrived at the police station.

However, just as they were about to ask the police for help, they realized that there was no one there.

There was only a work notebook on the table.

Xu Pingqiu picked up the notebook and took a look. The original document on the cover was “Work Records of the Police Station in the Southern Suburbs of Luo City”

However, the first few words were struck through by a ballpoint pen and amended into “Xiao Wang’s Work Records”

There were also a few matchstick figures drawn on the side.

Seeing this scene, Xu Pingqiu was very upset. How could this be the police station’s work log?

Opening it to take a look, the content on it was also very outrageous.

June 6th, drizzle.

From today onwards, I will officially become a member of the police station in the southern suburbs of Luo City. I must work hard and strive for the recognition of my senior, Big Brother Li!

June 7th, drizzle.

Is the job of a policeman so boring? Why is there not even a phone call?

June 8th, cloudy.

Today, I finally received a phone call. Someone actually joined a cult!

Of course, I will not allow such a bad thing to happen in Luo City. I immediately went with Big Brother Li and caught the old leader of the cult.

June 8th, sunny.

Watching the master cultivate, the master is really amazing.

This was the last page.

There were four pages in total. Each page was very short, but it clearly described the work content and the change in the mentality of this new policeman, Xiao Wang.

Li Ru came over and saw the content on this page. She was completely stunned.

Watching the master cultivate? Could this master be her husband?

A police officer watching her husband cultivate the practice of a cult?

Was this something a police officer would do?

Just as the two of them were stunned, cheers came from inside the police station.

“Wow, this is amazing!”

“Master, one more, one more!”

Hearing this voice, the two of them looked at each other and couldn’t help but walk into the corridor.

After a few steps, the two of them arrived at the door of the detention room.

They saw that there were transparent cubicles in the detention room one after another.

Outside the cubicle, there were two policemen with excited expressions on their faces. One was middle-aged, and the other was a young man.

Obviously, these two people were “Xiao Wang” and “Big Brother Li” from the southern suburbs police station.

In that cubicle, other than a few burly men who had been locked up here to reflect on their drunken fights, Zhang Youwei was the most eye-catching.

He circulated his spiritual energy and looked like an expert. In front of him was a brick that had been split into two. Clearly, he had performed splitting bricks for everyone just now.

The entire detention room cheered, “Master is really amazing!”

“Master is so strong. Can I learn from you?”

Beside him, Xiao Wang even stood up excitedly and said, “Master, I want to learn too. Please accept me as your disciple!”

What Xiao Wang saw today really shocked his young mind.

In his eyes, Zhang Youwei was a true legendary hero!

If he had the ability to go out and fight for justice, punish evil and spread good, wouldn’t it be much more exciting than being a policeman?

However, when he heard their words, Zhang Youwei put his hands behind his back and said calmly, “Immortal cultivation is all about having an immortal destiny. After seeing the one and a half moves that I casually showed you, you became so hot-headed that you wanted to cultivate immortality. If I can take you as my disciples in this way, doesn’t that mean that cultivating immortality is like child’s play?”

When they heard this, they immediately looked disappointed.

Xu Pingqiu, who was outside the door, finally couldn’t help but walk in and said, “Old Zhang, what are you doing?”

Hearing Xu Pingqiu’s words, Zhang Youwei immediately became embarrassed.

So far, to Zhang Youwei’s knowledge, the owner of the Avenue Bookstore, Luo Xiu, was definitely the most powerful immortal cultivator. There was no doubt about that.

Besides Luo Xiu, the only other immortal cultivator that Zhang Youwei knew was Xu Pingqiu. Moreover, Xu Pingqiu’s cultivation level was even higher than his.

To put it bluntly, Zhang Youwei was the weakest immortal cultivator in this world.

As the weakest one, it was fine for him to show off in front of ordinary people, but now he was actually caught by Xu Pingqiu. How could it not be awkward?

Zhang Youwei coughed twice and pretended to be calm, “Old Xu, why are you here?”

Xu Pingqiu only felt that this place was extremely ridiculous.

The police and the other guys who were arrested were here to watch Zhang Youwei’s performance. Was there anything more ridiculous than this?

He hurriedly waved his hand and said, “What am I doing here? Of course, I’m here to pick you up! Police officer, please let him out.”

The originally cheerful atmosphere in the detention room changed a little after Xu Pingqiu said this.

Old Li, the police officer, said with some difficulty, “I’m really sorry. I’m afraid I can’t let him out for the time being.”

“Why?”Xu Pingqiu frowned. He and Zhang Youwei were well-known figures in Luo City. How could they not oblige him?

Old Li hesitated for a moment as if he was considering his words. Then, he answered, “Although Mr. Zhang Youwei is very powerful, he did admit that he is an immortal cultivator. So isn’t it quite obvious that he has joined a cult? If that’s the case, how can we let him go just like that?”

When Xiao Wang heard this, he corrected him with dissatisfaction, “It’s not just a cult, it’s an immortal cult!”

“Alright, let’s call it an immortal cult. In any case, in our country, you can’t just casually establish religious organizations.”

Although Old Li had already regarded Zhang Youwei as a powerful master, rules were rules, and he did not dare to violate them casually.

Xu Pingqiu snorted and said, “It seems that I am still not influential enough to handle a small police officer like you. Let me call Chief Zhou of the Luo City Public Security Bureau right now to see if he is influential enough.”

Hearing this, Old Li should have hesitated or even panicked for a moment. After all, the Chief of the Public Security Bureau was not a small official, and a small police officer like him could not afford to offend him.

However, Old Li said rather awkwardly, “Mr. Xu, you don’t have to invite Director Zhou. Our captain has personally gone to the Luo City Public Security Bureau to look for Chief Zhou. Looking at the time, they should be here anytime now.”

Li Ru, who was standing at the side, had been listening in bewilderment ever since she arrived here.

How could the police officers of this police station be so unreliable?

Her husband had joined a cult. Not only did the two policemen not help to educate him, but they actually clapped and cheered.

However, when she heard that the chief of the Public Security Bureau was coming, she immediately felt relieved.

Perhaps the chief of the Public Security Bureau could take this more seriously.

After more than ten minutes, Li Ru’s mentality changed dramatically again.
