He didn't wait for Xiao Xiao to finish school. Otherwise, he was afraid that Xiao Xiao would pester him again. What made Xiao Chen puzzled was that Xiao Hai was busy taking over the company these days. He didn't ask about Xiao Chen and Xiao Xiao's situation at all. It seemed that he had forgotten what happened that morning.
In the box that Xiao Chen took out from under the volcano, there was an antique flying sword. Xiao Chen had refined it into his own flying sword. At least, it was much better than the previous handicraft. He didn't know if the Smiling Maitreya had noticed the problem …
In fact, the Smiling Maitreya was a little suspicious.
These days, he had been studying Xiao Chen's flying sword. However, no matter how he used his mind to control it, the flying sword couldn't fly. This made the Smiling Maitreya feel that something was wrong.
He looked for the Eldest Brother and the Dragon Knocking Taoist to study it together.
"Junior Brother Smiling Face, you have been studying this flying sword in seclusion these days. What have you learned?" The Eldest Brother asked with a smile. He thought that the Smiling Maitreya had mastered the way to use this flying sword and asked them to demonstrate it!
"Yes, Junior Brother Smiling Face, you didn't ask us to come here to demonstrate this magic weapon to us, did you?" The Dragon Knocking Taoist laughed.
The Smiling Maitreya's face didn't look good. He was no longer smiling. "Two Brothers, I feel that I have been cheated. This Flying Star Sword, no matter how I use my mind to control it, I can't control it. I suspect that this thing is fake."
"Fake?" The Eldest Brother was stunned. He picked up the Flying Star Sword with a solemn face and carefully observed it. After looking at it for a while, he shook his head. "I can't see anything. But didn't you tell me that you saw with your own eyes that Xiao Chen can fly with this Flying Star Sword? And you have personally tested it on it. It can fly. "
"Yes, but I don't know what's going on." Smiling Maitreya frowned and said, "It was like this at the time, and I'm sure that Xiao Chen didn't change, but who would have thought that after he came back, it wouldn't work no matter what!"
"Well, let's not be presumptuous. I think I and Old Daoist Dian Long will give it a try. Let's see if the two of us can control it with our thoughts. If we can't, then we'll ask the Martial Uncles of the sect to come and take a look. If they can't, then there's a problem …" Eldest Senior Brother said after thinking for a moment.
"Alright!" The Smiling Maitreya nodded. In fact, he had been experimenting on his own before and had not asked others to try it because he was selfish. After all, if he let others use their thoughts to control it, once they succeeded and he did not, he could only let others use it first. If others wanted to borrow it, they would be too embarrassed to ask for it back.
In this way, when others used it, he would have no time to try it out. Therefore, he had been in seclusion to try it out. Who would have thought that after such a long period of seclusion, there would still be no progress? He could only ask his two senior brothers to give him advice.
Thus, the two of them sat down cross-legged and began to use their thoughts to control it …
On the other side, Xiao Chen had already stepped onto the new flying sword and was flying at full speed towards Lan City. This flying sword was indeed extraordinary. Whether it was in terms of speed or appearance, it was much better than that lousy handicraft from before.
The flying sword from before could only be used as a hidden weapon for sneak attacks. However, this flying sword could truly be used as a weapon to fight against other cultivators.
Lan City, Supernatural Investigation Bureau branch. Xiao Chen met with Ling Tian.
"Eh? Deputy Bureau Chief Xiao, why are you here so quickly? "Ling Tian looked at him with some shock." How did you get here? "
"I flew here," Xiao Chen said with a smile.
"Do you have a private plane? There are no flights today! "Ling Tian said in bewilderment.
"Hehe." Xiao Chen smiled. "Bureau Chief Ling, you can just call me Xiao Chen in the future. There's no need to call me Deputy Bureau Chief Xiao. There's also no need to be so polite."
"Alright, then I'll call you Xiao Chen." Ling Tian didn't act pretentious. "Look at my age, you can call me Uncle Ling or Grandpa Ling. Of course, you can also call me Big Brother Ling."
"It's better to call me Bureau Chief Ling. It's more formal." Xiao Chen didn't want to have too deep of a relationship with the Supernatural Investigation Bureau. He also didn't want to be restricted, so it was better not to get too close to him.
Ling Tian seemed to have seen through Xiao Chen's thoughts. He only smiled and said, "Actually, this mission is my personal request to you. With your current position, I can't directly order you to do anything. It has to be approved by the Bureau Chief's meeting."
Xiao Chen was stunned, then came to a realization. He nodded and said, "Alright, I'll call you Grandpa Ling in private! Now, let's talk about the mission! "
"That's fine too!" Seeing that Xiao Chen didn't want to say anything else, Ling Tian nodded and said, "My granddaughter is called Ling Qianyu. She's a first-year student at Lan City University."
"Ling Qianyu?" Xiao Chen was slightly taken aback. He couldn't help but think of that cute deskmate of his. Although they only sat together for a short period of time, she was a good girl and left a deep impression on Xiao Chen.
Then, Xiao Chen thought of that Japanese ninja, Rin Qianxue. He had met her in the Hakunamata Desert. He didn't know what happened to her after that. Was she still as obedient as before?
"What's wrong?" Ling Tian saw that Xiao Chen's expression was a little strange.
"It's nothing." Xiao Chen shook his head, "I just thought of a friend. Oh right, Bureau Chief Ling, do you want me to protect her in secret? Or does she know of my existence?"
"She definitely wants to know. Although she's a little conflicted, it's understandable. After all, it's for her own safety and to prevent her from becoming a tool for the bad guys to blackmail me!" Ling Tian said, "However, she also wants to live a normal university life and doesn't want our people to keep an eye on her. I'll be honest with you, I've already sent out two special agents from the Supernatural Investigation Department to protect her. However, she's very conflicted and is about to start a fight with me …"
Ling Tian couldn't help but feel a little awkward as he said this.
"Oh? Since that's the case, if I were to do it, wouldn't she also … "Xiao Chen didn't want to be that annoying person who would put in a lot of effort without any reward. It was the same when he was protecting Xu Chuxia back then. Fortunately, he was reasonable, and the two of them got along well.
However, the same couldn't be said for Ling Tian's granddaughter. If they were to start a fight, why would Xiao Chen have to go through all that trouble?
"It's exactly because others can't do it …" Ling Tian said, "Firstly, you have the experience of successfully protecting other girls. I heard that you have a good relationship with Xu Chuxia, the granddaughter of the research institute's Professor Xu Yinde. More importantly, you're quite young. If you sneak into the campus, no one will be able to tell that you're a bodyguard. However, although the two people you're protecting aren't that old and have makeup that makes them look younger, no one will be able to tell that you're a student."
"Alright." Xiao Chen nodded, "Then I'll go."
"Alright, since you've agreed, I'll bring you over now!" Ling Tian nodded gratefully.
As the two of them spoke, they left the Supernatural Investigation Department and boarded a business car to head towards Blue City University.
At the entrance, Ling Tian swiped his card and the car smoothly entered the campus. It was obvious that he was a frequent visitor.
The car continued on its way until it arrived at a dormitory. On the dormitory, there was a large sign that read "Female Dormitory"!
"Can anyone enter this place?" Xiao Chen couldn't help but ask when he saw the sign that read "Males Are Not Allowed".
"Of course. This is a high-class dormitory. Every dormitory has its own washroom. No one will run around without clothes. You can enter without worry." Ling Tian said, "This sign was put up after the dormitory was built. Every dormitory has one. Girls are not allowed to enter the male dormitory."
Xiao Chen nodded. When he was in No.1 Middle School, he didn't stay in a dormitory for long, so he wasn't very familiar with these things.
As the two of them walked into the dormitory, no one stopped them. In reality, the management of these high-class dormitories wasn't that strict. After all, every dormitory had its own lock, so it was impossible for people to peep on them.
When they arrived at the door of a dormitory, Xiao Chen knocked. A cautious female voice came from inside, "Who is it?"
"It's me." Ling Tian said, "Little Zhao, open the door."
Very quickly, the door was opened. Although Little Zhao could hear Ling Tian's voice and saw that it was one of Ling Tian's people, there was still Xiao Chen beside him. Thus, Little Zhao's hand was already on her gun.
"Bureau Chief Ling." Little Zhao greeted.
"Don't be nervous. This is Deputy Bureau Chief Xiao Chen. He's the new Deputy Bureau Chief of the Supernatural Investigation Department!" Ling Tian introduced, "How is it? Are you guys getting along well with Qianyu?"
"This …" Little Zhao instantly felt a little awkward. It wasn't appropriate for her to say too much in front of Ling Tian. She could only change the topic and greeted Xiao Chen, "Hello, Deputy Bureau Chief Xiao!"
"Hello!" Xiao Chen sized up this woman. She was in her twenties. She wasn't very pretty, but she had a shrewd and capable air about her. She should be an elite special agent.
As the few of them were talking, they heard the angry voice of a girl coming from inside the room, "I say, what are you guys trying to do? Are you going to let me go to school normally? The two of you said that you were going to set up some infrared alarms. I can tolerate that, but what are you trying to do now? You installed so many cameras in my room. How am I supposed to live like this? "
"I'm sorry, Miss Ling. The mission that we received from Bureau Chief Ling is to protect your personal safety. Thus, the cameras must be installed. We can't compromise on this!" This was the voice of a man. If Ling Tian wasn't wrong, he should be the other person from the Supernatural Investigation Department that Ling Tian mentioned.
And that woman should be Ling Tian's granddaughter, Ling Qianyu. She was also the person that Xiao Chen was going to protect!
However, hearing her angry words, Xiao Chen couldn't help but smile bitterly. As expected, it wasn't an easy mission!
