Tianyang City, Lingde Society.

As the largest and most powerful special organization in the Yanhuang Kingdom, the Spirit Demon Association can be said to be spread throughout the country. Almost every city has its branches. It not only has a noble status, but is above government institutions, but is also deeply supported and respected by the people.

The reason is very simple. The main function of the Ling Yao Guild Hall is to be responsible for safety issues. To be precise, it should be to protect all urban residents from harm.

If the city is attacked by monsters or other threats, the monks in the Spirit Demon Hall will come forward to suppress it, and so far, there are countless monsters and evil cultivators who have died at their hands.

However, this incident happened suddenly and I could not get the news as soon as possible, which led to the tree demon being killed by Xu Shu when Qiao Fan led his subordinates to arrive.

“…”

The branch of the Ling Yao Hall in Tianyang City is located on a closed mountain on the east side of the city. The architectural style is quite ancient, as if it has been through hundreds of years. In addition to a few quiet and elegant courtyards, there is also a main building with four floors, each with a floor of thousands of square meters. It is divided into different areas and each performs its own duties.

At this moment, the fourth floor of the main building.

Dongdongdongdongdongdong!

"Come in."

"Captain, I have checked the monk named Xu Shu."

Ding Ziling's expression was weird and he didn't know how to describe it.

"Oh, tell me."

Qiao Fan put down the guild hall documents that he had just processed and waited for Ding Ziling to answer.

"Well……"

Ding Ziling said slowly while pondering his words: "Actually... there is no information at all."

"No information? What does it mean?"

Qiao Fan frowned.

"This fellow Daoist Xu suddenly appeared in Tianyang City yesterday, exchanged the top-grade spirit stones for 5 million yuan, then ate and drank, bought a lot of miscellaneous things, and stayed in Feiyun Hotel for one night, and no information was found further forward."

Ding Ziling was helpless.

"What did you say? Use the top-grade spirit stones to exchange for currency?"

Qiao Fan suddenly opened his eyes wide.

"Yes."

Ding Ziling smiled bitterly.

"It's too expensive!"

Qiao Fan slapped the table with a slap, looking full of regret, even more distressed than losing a few spirit stones.

Who can exchange high-quality spirit stones for currency? It's so stupid!

Ding Ziling: "..."

In fact, when he first saw this message, he also reacted...

“…”

Qiao Fan was the second-ranked figure in the Demon Spirit Hall. He quickly calmed down and said solemnly: "Can you find any information further..."

This situation often has only two possible ways:

1. Xu Shu was in seclusion and retreat for a long time and had been disconnected from the outside world, so naturally he could not find any relevant information.

2. Xu Shu was a spy sent by the enemy country to perform missions and sneak into the Yanhuang Kingdom, and had no real identity.

In short, no matter which possibility, it represents uncertainty.

So Qiao Fan ordered: "Find a monk who is proficient in concealment and follow him secretly. Don't disturb him on your own initiative. If there is any change, please inform me immediately."

"yes!"

Ding Ziling took the order and left.

Da da da da da.

Qiao Fan tapped the handrail gently with his fingers, thinking about whether to tell the director, after all, it was of great importance.

After a while, two female members of the guild hall walked in.

"team leader."

"Well, how is Fellow Daoist Li's injury?"

Qiao Fan's expression changed, full of concern.

"It has stabilized, but it will take about half a month to completely recover."

The two answered.

"Okay, stay in the Spirit Demon Hall before he recovers completely, and let Master Lu help him recast the spirit sword."

Li Shuang dared to compete with the Hedan Realm's cultivation level with his spiritual realm's cultivation, without fear, and saved dozens of lives. How could he live up to his life?

"OK."

The two nodded, but did not leave, with a hesitant look.

"What else?"

Qiao Fan noticed the abnormality.

"Uh... Fellow Daoist Li wants to join our Spirit Demon Hall, is that okay?"

The two hesitated.

"Join the Spirit Demon Hall?"

Qiao Fan was stunned.

"Yes, he said that his goal of practicing since childhood was to join the Spirit Demon Hall and become a sword-holder. However, his talent was limited and he failed the test, which was extremely regretful."

The two asked in a tentative tone.

Upon hearing this, Qiao Fan was silent.

Just when the two thought Qiao Fan would refuse, Qiao Fan finally spoke: "Yes."

For the sword-holder, the most important thing is not talent, but responsibility. Obviously, Li Shuang is competent, and they just need more personnel now.

"Really? That's great!"

The two were overjoyed and were happy for Li Shuang.

“…”

When the two left, Qiao Fan took out his cell phone and dialed a number:

"Hey, the director..."

“…”

...

It was night, with gauze covering and the lights were bright.

Xu Shu walked out of a restaurant and rubbed Xiaotong's head: "Ha, eat and drink, it's almost time to rest."

"Um?"

Just after a few steps forward, Xu Shu suddenly stopped. He first looked at the tall building on the left, then looked at the tall building on the right, and his figure disappeared in place without a trace!

It is undoubtedly a fantasy to secretly follow Xu Shu by hiding his breath.

"So fast!"

On the high building on the left, the black shadow's pupils shrank, and he hurriedly spread out the spirit stones to search, but he could no longer catch Xu Shu.

Didi.

"team leader."

The dark shadow picked up the phone.

“Is there any situation?”

Qiao Fan's voice came from the opposite side.

"He... disappeared, too fast, and didn't know where he went."

The black shadow said: "I think he should have discovered me."

"Are you sure?"

"Certainly, he glanced at me before he disappeared."

After a pause, the black shadow added: "In addition, for some reason, he also glanced at the rooftop opposite."

"etc!"

Qiao Fan said in a deep voice: "I'm afraid you are not the only one who is following him. Hurry up and go to the rooftop opposite to take a look!"

"clear!"
