Chapter 429: Chapter 299: Returning to the Underworld!
It took more than an hour to finish a meal.
Cooperation achieved.
Minister Wang did not rush back to the headquarters, but instead brought Black and White Impermanence to the Wu City Spirits Management Bureau branch.
“Minister Wang, Supreme Sage Xu.”
The person receiving Minister Wang, Xu Yang, and Black and White Impermanence was Bai Wei.
She used to be the vice-captain of the “Wu City Team”, and after being promoted to a Grandmaster of martial arts, she was appointed as the deputy director of the Wu City Spirits Management Bureau branch.
Since the opening of the Martial Arts Academy, Director Feng Zhaoqing has been living there, and the affairs of the Spirits Management Bureau were naturally managed by Bai Wei.
While receiving Minister Wang and Xu Yang, Bai Wei couldn’t help but take a few glances at Black and White Impermanence.
The appearance of Black and White Impermanence right now was exactly the same as in the legends.
However, Bai Wei didn’t dare to confirm it.
It was only after Minister Wang introduced them that she bowed and said, “So it’s Lord Hei and Master Wang, I’ve long admired you!”
This “admiration” was not an exaggeration.
In Da Xia, not many people haven’t heard of “Black and White Impermanence”.
“Bai Wei, right?”
This was also Minister Wang’s first time meeting Bai Wei. He cut to the chase and said, “Take us to the office.”
After arriving at the office, Bai Wei personally brewed a pot of tea.
“Minister Wang, Supreme Sage Xu, Lord Hei, Master Wang, have some tea.”
Pouring the tea.
Bai Wei respectfully stood behind Minister Wang.
After taking a sip of tea, Minister Wang briefly explained the cooperation with Black and White Impermanence, and Bai Wei’s eyes flashed with joy upon hearing it.
She secretly looked at Black and White Impermanence…
Thinking if they ever encountered any difficult and strange cases in the Spirits Management Bureau, couldn’t they just directly throw it to Black and White Impermanence and those ghost officials?
It was like finding some free thugs without paying wages!
What a great deal!
Of course.
Black and White Impermanence probably also had the same idea of taking big advantage of the situation.
Having someone to provide them with the traces of Yin spirits and malevolent beings for free, while also sending them merit and achievement, isn’t it wonderful?
Minister Wang said, “You arrange for Lord Hei and Master Wang to have a place to live. The money will go through the public account. You just need to have your finance department send the bill to the headquarters later.”
“Also, I will give you authorization to access the case files of mysterious incidents from each provincial branch at any time.”
“Arrange for someone to inform Lord Hei and Master Wang immediately if there are any news of Yin spirits and evil spirits causing trouble.”
Bai Wei noted it all down and left respectfully.
As soon as she left the office, she displayed an air of efficiency and called the members of her team to give clear and concise instructions.
Half an hour later.
Bai Wei returned to the office.
This time, she brought Wang Lin with her.
As soon as he entered the office, Wang Lin quickly paid his respects to Minister Wang and Xu Yang, then looked at Black and White Impermanence and said, “Lord Hei, Master Wang, my name is Wang Lin, and I will be in charge of communicating with you in Wu City from now on.”
Having said that,
He took out two mobile phones and said, “I have prepared these for Lord Hei and Master Wang. To get a SIM card, we need an ID card. I have already arranged for someone to do it. It should be done in about three days.”
Black and White Impermanence had never used a mobile phone before and didn’t know how to use them.
Wang Lin took the initiative, came close, and said, “Lord Hei, Master Wang, let me introduce you to the usage of this mobile phone …”
Soon.
He got along well with Black and White Impermanence.
Seeing this, Minister Wang nodded with satisfaction and asked, “How is the handling of other matters?”
“The house I prepared for Lord Hei and Master Wang, I have already asked someone to negotiate. If everything goes smoothly, we should be able to settle it before the housing management office closes for the day.”
Bai Wei paused and continued, “I just got news that several consecutive bizarre incidents occurred in Xi’an City. The culprit, a ghost, is suspected to be a top-tier Red Cloth. According to the witness’s description, it is a headless general riding a horse.”
At the side.
Upon hearing this, Black Impermanence immediately smiled and said, “Leave this matter to me. I will contact the ghost officials in Xi’an right away and ask them to capture the culprit as soon as possible.”
Wang Lin took over the conversation, saying, “Then I’ll have to trouble Master Wang…I will contact the intelligence department of the Xi’an branch as soon as possible. As soon as we have information about the ghost, I will inform Master Wang.”
This case was the first one after the Spirits Management Bureau and the ghost officials started cooperating.
Both parties showed sincerity.
Black Impermanence took out a bronze mirror, infused it with Yin energy, and soon the face of a ghost official appeared on the mirror.
After telling in detail about the news received from the intelligence department of the Xi’an Spirits Management Bureau to the ghost official, Black Impermanence hung up the “bronze mirror” and said, “The ghost officials in Xi’an have already started taking action. I believe there will be results soon.”
Half an hour later.
The bronze mirror vibrated.
Black Impermanence took it out and looked at it, saying, “The ghost official has found the traces of the headless general. They have set up a Heavenly Net and will apprehend him soon.”
Another ten minutes went by, and Black Impermanence looked at the bronze mirror again and joyfully said, “Minister Wang, Master Xu…It’s done. The headless general has been subdued and is currently being escorted to the Underworld Palace by our ghost officials!”
It took only an hour in total.
One top-tier Red Cloth had been subdued.
The efficiency of the collaboration between the Spirits Management Bureau and Black and White Impermanence was immediately displayed.
The Spirits Management Bureau in each province was still holding onto several cases. Bai Wei was about to open her mouth, but she was stopped by Minister Wang’s gaze. He stood up and smiled, “Bai Wei, go and urge them to get the place for Lord Hei and Master Wang ready as soon as possible.”
“Lord Hei, Master Wang.”
“I have important matters to deal with, so I’ll take my leave first.”
After Wang Hou left, Xu Yang exchanged a few pleasantries with Black and White Impermanence before making an excuse to slip away.
Manipulating Black and White Impermanence to help attack Lu Shan Sect was a good idea.
But he couldn’t act hastily.
After all, they had just met last night, so it would be better to have a few more meals together in the future.
Before leaving, Xu Yang called Wang Lin and said, “After you arrange the house for Black and White Impermanence, remember to send me the address.”
After leaving the Supernatural Affairs Bureau office,
Xu Yang arrived at the Martial Arts Academy.
The academy had been open for a week, and everything was going on as planned.
At this moment, there were two classes on “Sword Technique”.
The swordsmanship teacher was teaching the basic sword techniques to the students on the field.
And Wan Qian was observing them from the sidelines.
When the Swordsmanship teacher noticed Xu Yang, he immediately came over and said, “Director Xu, you’re here?”
This teacher seemed to be in his thirties, wearing a white practice suit and carrying a blue-edge sword. He was a body refining expert with great external skills, vigorous blood and strong primordial energy. His sword aura was sharp, and it seemed that he was not far from cultivating sword essence.
Of course.
This one step difference is a chasm.
Some swordsmen can’t take that crucial step for their entire lives due to stalling at this stage!
He looked at Xu Yang with admiration in his eyes, saying, “Director, I’m teaching the children sword techniques now. You are a great swordsman, could you say a few words to the students?”
Xu Yang wanted to refuse.
Basic swordsmanship?
He hadn’t practiced that at all.
To be honest…
Xu Yang didn’t even know how many moves there were in the basic swordsmanship!
But the students had already started to clap, so he could only brace himself and step forward, saying lightly, “There’s no need for me to talk about basic sword techniques… Your swordsmanship teacher teaches better than me.”
“Your teacher said I’m a great swordsman, but I don’t think that’s right.”
“After all, I’ve been practicing swordsmanship for a short time and didn’t study as much as the older generations. How can I be called a great swordsman?”
“It’s just that my sword aura is stronger and powerful.”
Xu Yang thought for a moment, then released his sword aura, which transformed into several sword energies in the air, demonstrating the “Eight Forms of Famous Sword Skills”. The students applauded while the swordsmanship teacher’s eyes shone, saying, “Turning aura into a sword, controlling the sword with the mind, Director Xu’s move shows a resemblance to the Daoist flying sword technique… Director Xu, does this move have a name?”
“Eight Forms of Famous Sword Skills.”
Xu Yang said the name of the sword technique.
“Eight Forms of Famous Sword Skills… Eight Forms of Famous Sword Skills?”
The teacher repeated the name, then was startled, surprised, “Is this move from a martial arts TV series about a sect called Renowned Sword Manor?”
Xu Yang’s expression changed, and nodded, “That’s right, it was after watching that TV series that I was inspired to create this move. I didn’t bother thinking of another name, so I just borrowed the name of the sword technique from the TV show.”
The teacher looked at Xu Yang even more fervently.
As a swordsman, he knew how incredible it was to create a set of swordsmanship based on TV show techniques. In his heart, he already regarded Xu Yang as a Heavenly Being!
The students looked even more astonished, calling for “Director Xu” to show another move.
Xu Yang looked up at the sky.
He saw that the weather today was not very good, with dark clouds gathering overhead.
He took out the Bi Shui Sword and made a move. The majestic Great River sword aura shot towards the sky, tearing a huge chunk of the dark clouds apart.
The swordsmanship teacher’s face turned red with excitement, “Director Xu, can you tell everyone how you usually practice swordsmanship?”
Xu Yang: “…”
For goodness sake, I usually don’t practice swordsmanship at all, okay?
However, he couldn’t say that in front of the students.
As the director of the Martial Arts Academy, he had to set an example. So, he coughed and said, “I believe that true geniuses are created by one percent talent and ninety-nine percent hard work!”
“Practicing martial arts and swordsmanship.”
“In one word… perseverance, hard work!”
“Since I began cultivating, I’ve replaced sleep with cultivation every day. I’ve hardly ever closed my eyes… My skills and swordsmanship are all the result of my efforts and sweat!”
This was just a small episode in Director Xu’s daily life.
Apart from that,
He was also banging Wan Qian.
After school,
Xu Yang and Wan Qian booked a private room outside the school, had wine and dinner together, and sent Wan Qian home before returning to the villa.
When he turned to look at the villa, he found that the entire place was shrouded in dark clouds.
In the sky above the villa, there were strong Yin winds and dense thunderclouds.
An inexplicable sense of heavenly might loomed over everyone’s hearts.
Everyone was sitting together in the living room on the first floor of the villa, but Liu Shishi was nowhere to be seen.
“Husband, you’re back?”
Yang Yin came forward and said, “We went shopping today, and Shishi suddenly had an epiphany… When she came back, she began to cultivate and is about to face the thunder tribulation.”
She looked worried, “Yue Niang said that breaking through in the human world will definitely cause heavenly tribulation… I’m afraid Shishi might not survive it.”
Xu Yang said, “Don’t worry, I’ll take her to the Underworld Palace tonight.”
