After glancing around and confirming that there was no one in the corridor, Li Nian simply jumped out by leaning against the windowsill and disappeared in a flash.
……
……
He ran to the station to buy a ticket and rushed to catch the punctual bus. Two hours later, Li Nian arrived at his destination.
As promised, he informed the other party of his flight number and estimated arrival time, and got a phone number. After contacting them, it turned out to be the police and a police car that came.
Seeing the young boy still in school uniform, the middle-aged police officer couldn't help but show a suspicious look, but he extended his hand to Li Nian and asked politely: "Please let me check your ID."
"Please look."
Li Nian took out the exorcist qualification certificate from his pocket and handed it over. The other party carefully compared the boy's face in front of him with the photo above, and then confirmed that Li Nian was indeed the exorcist mentioned in the contact from the Yin-Yang Bureau. He couldn't help but exclaimed "Is this true?", but felt that he was being rude, so he immediately put on a serious expression, handed the certificate back to Li Nian with both hands, introduced himself, made it clear that he was there to pick Li Nian up, and respectfully invited him to get in the car.
"What on earth is the matter that called me here?"
As the car was driving on the road, Li Nian asked this question curiously. But the police officer asked back in confusion: "You don't know?"
"I was called here, but I haven't been told what happened yet."
"…I'm sorry, but if you, an exorcist, don't know what happened, then there's no way we can know."
It seems that he really doesn't know what is going on.
They chatted idly after that, but because the police officer seemed to have a bit of awe towards the exorcist, they couldn't change the topic. So Li Nian simply shut up, stopped talking and asking questions, and closed his eyes to rest.
The car left the city and headed towards the suburbs. The surrounding scenery gradually changed from concrete buildings to lush woods.
After about twenty minutes, Li Nian suddenly felt something in his heart. He opened his eyes and looked at the sky in the distance through the windshield.
There, there was a green gas that was invisible to the naked eye, crawling like a cloud.
Li Nian observed carefully for a while, made a rough judgment, and muttered something.
"This is overflowing spiritual energy... and it seems to have been suppressed and gathered?"
The police officer heard him speak, but didn't understand what he was saying. He thought he was asking about the distance, so he quickly replied, "We're almost there. It's just ahead."
The car drove forward for a while and stopped at an intersection. Several police officers were guarding there and had set up a cordon.
The middle-aged police officer got out of the car with Li Nian, led him over, said something to the police officer guarding the crossing, pulled up the cordon and led Li Nian in, then stopped, turned around and said to Li Nian apologetically, "It's right in front, there's an exorcist waiting, please hurry over."
The implication was that he had no intention of following.
It was true that ordinary people could not help much in the face of spiritual disasters. Li Nian had no doubt about this. However, it was the first time he heard him say that an exorcist had arrived. He looked thoughtfully towards the center of the waves, nodded, and took a step forward without saying a word.
I pushed aside the grass, stepped on the soil and fallen leaves and walked through the woods for a while. Suddenly, the view in front of me became clear. The spreading flora came to an abrupt end here, and the rest of the way suddenly turned into a vast barren land.
Li Nian looked up and found a towering tree growing in the center of the land. It was lush and green, forming a sharp contrast with the bare and desolate scenery around it, revealing a strange and vigorous vitality.
The creeping green spiritual energy emanates from this tree.
When he got closer, Li Nian could tell at a glance that this was a disordered spiritual vein node. The tree happened to grow on the overflow point. It looked like it had been eroded for a long time and was on the verge of alienation... No, the strangest thing was that it had not yet alienated.
As for the reason——
Li Nian looked at the scattered light spots in the surrounding space and determined that this was a powerful and tight barrier. He felt that the spiritual power in his body was also affected by the suppression. He raised his eyebrows and turned his gaze to the man standing under the tree.
The man was about thirty years old, wearing a well-fitting suit, with his hands in his pockets, standing straight as a sword. But compared with his majestic posture, his face was expressionless, and his eyes had thick dark circles, making him look tired. He also had two long braids hanging down his back, and his hairstyle was weird.
But even so, he is still a man who gives people a neat impression overall.
It seems that he is the exorcist who arrived first. He cast this strict spell to firmly suppress the spiritual energy and lock the tree that was about to be transformed.
"You are the Li Nian, right? You asked me to wait for so long, you bastard. Why did you delay until now?"
Seemingly quite impatient with waiting, the man made a lazy and powerless sound and complained unhappily.
"I'm Li Nian. Sorry, I was in Qianye before..."
Li Nian wanted to say a few polite words, but the man waved his hand and interrupted her impatiently.
"Forget it, forget it. Don't worry about those little things. I've waited for so long, and I don't want to waste time on boring polite words. Let's get straight to the point. Let's confirm first, did you kill Kidomaru?"
He suddenly asked a strange question, causing Li Nian to narrow his eyes slightly.
"It's as if the whole world knows about it..."
"That's what I mean?"
"…I guess so. What's the problem?"
"No, as long as I get your affirmative answer, it's fine. No other questions." The man pointed at the tree. "Well, since you can kill Kidomaru, I think you should be able to handle this thing easily. Can we start the assessment now?"
"Assessment?"
Li Nian was stunned, and suddenly heard a crisp sound, and the barrier collapsed.
The man cancelled the spell that was suppressing the tree.
The big tree that was eroded by spiritual energy lost its restraint, and the alienation process began to advance rapidly. The branches began to grow wildly like living creatures.
Li Nian realized what the man was saying and nodded.
"I understand."
The next second, the huge flaming sword chopped down fiercely, splitting the tree in half from head to toe.
The spiritual disaster has been cured and completed.
This is my first time writing something. To be honest, I have no idea where to start. After thinking carefully, I think I should start with this sentence...
——Woof! (Only dogs slack off!)
……
……
cough cough.
Hello everyone, as you know, I am a purebred single dog whose days without a girlfriend = life so far.
What are you laughing at? You are single too.
Is it wrong for a single person to slack off? ! Okay, it’s wrong, don’t show your knife
Having said that, I still have to say that I don’t really want to slack off…
Although I know many of you want to put a buff on my head when I say this, it is true, look at my pure eyes.
Hahahahahaha burp.
Okay, enough joking.
There is only one thing I can guarantee as a person with no moral integrity, and that is that I have always been writing my book seriously.
I racked my brains to think about the plot, considered every word and sentence in every paragraph, and revised it repeatedly in pursuit of a smooth reading experience. The result is this book.
Some people may sneer when they see this - hey, the final result is still this kind of thing?
I would answer you yes.
Basically, I have read every book review and every post. I think this book must be imperfect in the eyes of all readers, and its flaws may outweigh its merits, but this is indeed the best I have done.
I feel like what I write is never good enough.
But I don't say this to complain. On the contrary, I want to say that I am quite proud of it. What I wrote carefully has received mixed reviews, so I just have to accept both the good and the bad.
I will continue to do my best to write in the future.
Of course, I am not saying this to give myself room to slack off.
Let’s talk about the update issues that everyone is most concerned about.
Honestly speaking, the fact that the book is now on the shelves coincides with my extremely busy period, which is actually quite uncomfortable. I have to get up in the middle of the night every day to write, which leaves no room for rest. I can only maintain daily updates until early December when various things come to an end, and then I can relax and think about pursuing full attendance.
Please forgive the senior dog during this period.
After saying so much, it’s already four o’clock in the morning... Let me take a nap and then get up to code the first chapter for the shelves. I’m shamelessly asking for the first order here.
Chapter 88 Evaluation Update
The flaming sword that slashed down beside him brought up a hot wind that blew up the man's hair. A hint of surprise appeared on his cold face, and his squinted eyes widened slightly.
It’s not that Li Nian’s skill in using the flaming sword is particularly special, it’s just that it only took a short moment for the technique to be formed and the attack to be completed, which was incredibly fast.
The man turned around and saw the giant tree that was split in two with the edge of the wound still burning. He smacked his lips and realized that if he were standing in the position of being attacked, his reaction would also be a little hasty and he might suffer a loss.
"This person is so crazy..."
"Is it okay to just chop it off?" Li Nian asked calmly. The flaming sword in his hand slashed once and then dissipated completely.
"No, it's okay."
"What about the assessment you just mentioned?"
"Ah, that one passed, of course."
When Li Nian heard that she had passed the assessment, she was not very happy. She just felt that it was natural. She stared at the man and asked curiously.
"Rather than that, I'm more curious about what's going on right now..."
"It's nothing strange. This is a process that everyone has to go through once. After all, this is the first mission for this guy who doesn't know the details. Someone has to observe to avoid messing it up."
The man heard Li Nian's confusion and explained a few words casually. After listening, Li Nian roughly understood why this person appeared here, but still had some questions.
"But I remember the person who asked me to come was named Jinguji, and from the sound of her voice, it was a woman, so it couldn't be you."
"Originally, it should have been Jinguji-kun who came over. After all, your qualification certificate was approved by her. However..." The man said meaningfully, "I heard that a newcomer killed Kidomaru, so I wanted to come over and take a look out of curiosity. I specifically told her that I was here to take her place."
"..."
Just like Nurarihyon, Li Nian was speechless because of the people paying attention to him because of Kidomaru.
In short, after this conversation, Li Nian has probably sorted out the context of the whole matter. This spiritual disaster is indeed his first mission assigned to him, and it is probably a bit of an exploratory task. The big tree in front of him, which is about to be completely eroded by spiritual energy and further demonized, is the content of the assessment prepared for him.
Li Nian nodded in understanding and suddenly thought of something.
"If it's an assessment, does that mean it won't be counted as salary this time?"
The man was stunned, as if he didn't expect Li Nian to care about such a question. He snorted with amusement, but still answered.
"...You still care about this? Ah, don't worry. Even if it's an assessment, this is indeed a spiritual disaster that you solved with your own hands. Once the office confirms this, the money will be transferred to your account."
"I feel relieved when you say that." Li Nian smiled and felt that the trip was worthwhile.
The man turned his head to look at the giant tree that had been split in half by Li Nian and was now burning, and said with some emotion.
"In the end, I didn't see anything... I stood there like a fool for two hours. If I had known this would happen, I should have let it grow a little longer."
He deliberately suppressed the progress of the tree being eroded by spiritual power, just to give Li Nian a surprise and see what kind of strength he would display when the spiritual disaster retreated, but he didn't expect to be killed instantly by this guy.
The man turned back, looked Li Nian up and down, and continued, "But think about it, if someone can kill Kidomaru, then a tree shouldn't be that hard to kill."
Whether it was Nurarihyon or this person, they all seemed to have reasons to make things up when they came to me.
Li Nian didn't want to talk to him any more, thinking about going back after finishing her work, she just shrugged her shoulders and said perfunctorily.
"Yes, yes, so Mr. Examiner, do you recognize my ability now? Please remember to give me a full score. If there is nothing else, can I leave first?"
"...please."
Although he seemed somewhat reluctant, there was really no reason to keep Li Nian, so the man did not stop him.
Li Nian took a look at the still burning trees and thought that it was time to put out the fire to prevent it from spreading in the forest. He then brought him a large pot and waved his hand. A sharp cold wind blew past, instantly depriving the burning flames of their heat and blowing them out.
When the man saw this move, he confirmed again the speed at which Li Nian performed the technique. He narrowed his eyes slightly after seeing how he could manipulate the huge spiritual power.
After doing this, Li Nian nodded politely to the man, turned around and left in a hurry. She never asked his name from beginning to end, treating him as just a stranger passing by.
The man stayed where he was, watching Li Nian walk away, then turned around to look at the remains of the trees that still had traces of burning but were covered with ice crystals.
Suddenly he sneered.
"Who would believe that he was affected by the spiritual disaster and was a newcomer who had awakened for a month? The change before and after was so great, there must be something seriously wrong with this person."
But no matter what, in the first spiritual disaster, this guy named Li Nian has already demonstrated part of his abilities.
The man thought for a while, then took out his cell phone and called Jinguji, and the call was quickly connected.
"Lord Tian Ruo?"
