"Why? Do you want to make a move in front of me? Do you think I, the Chief, don't exist?" Zhao Laoxiu said coldly.
"No, even if I have a hundred guts, I wouldn't dare to do anything in front of the Chief." Liu Jiang quickly cupped his hands and apologized. It was enough to show a little bit of his edge. It wouldn't do to be too arrogant. Then he looked at Yang Fei and added faintly, "I'm not a certain someone."
Zhao Laoxiu was exceptionally satisfied with Liu Jiang's attitude and contributed more than 3,000 points of joy without hesitation.
"You…" Yang Fei was furious. He did not stand on ceremony and contributed more than 3,000 points of anger and resentment to Liu Jiang.
However, he suppressed his anger and explained to Zhao Laoxiu, "Chief, I've lost my composure. However, not only was Liu Jiang late on the second day of his appointment, he even dared to be late for a meeting to discuss the capture of demons.
Moreover, he contradicted his superior and showed no respect for him. Clearly, he did not take the Chief seriously. Please punish him, Chief. Otherwise, I will not accept it."
Yang Fei was furious with Liu Jiang. If he did not teach Liu Jiang a lesson today, the anger in his heart would not subside.
"Liu Jiang, why are you late?" Zhao Laoxiu asked calmly.
"My lord, last night, I received information from an informant that there were clues about demons, so I took action immediately. After an entire night of investigation, I finally found two bronze-level demons. After an exceptionally intense battle, I captured the two demons alive."
Liu Jiang cupped his hands. His voice was firm and powerful, and his tone was rhythmic. As he spoke, he took out the demon pouch at his waist and released two demons that had been tied up like dumplings.
"Bronze-level demons?" Zhao Laoxiu's eyes lit up as he hurried forward to check.
"Yes, they are indeed two-star bronze demons," Zhao Laoxiu said happily.
Capturing two bronze-level demons was good.
Zhao Laoxiu was happy and contributed more than 3,000 points of joy to Liu Jiang.
At the same time, he received a total of 8,000 points of envy and 6,000 points of jealousy from Luo Caiyun and the others.
Yang Fei's face darkened as he spat more than 3,000 points of resentment at Liu Jiang. Then he said suspiciously, "That's not right. With your seven-star Black Iron cultivation, how could you catch two two-star Bronze demons?"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Laoxiu and the others immediately looked suspiciously at Liu Jiang.
Could he have gotten lucky and bumped into seriously injured demons?
Perhaps he had used poison.
Otherwise, how could Liu Jiang have captured two demons alive when their cultivation levels were several levels apart?
Faced with everyone's doubts, Liu Jiang smiled and said calmly, "I told you yesterday that I was suddenly enlightened. Since I've already enlightened, my cultivation naturally improved by leaps and bounds. Now I'm already at the peak of the one-star Bronze level."
As he spoke, his movement technique and Dharma powers fluctuated slightly before dissipating.
However, a few of them had already sensed Liu Jiang's cultivation level. He was a true one-star Bronze peak.
"Oh my god, this guy is actually at the peak of the one-star Bronze level?"
"This is too fast. It's unbelievable."
"A 17-year-old peak one-star Bronze. Impressive."
Envy!
Jealousy!
Even Zhao Laoxiu began to feel envious. The few of them worked together to fill Liu Jiang with envy and jealousy.
In just a moment, the points had exceeded 10,000.
However, they did not believe Liu Jiang at all.
Enlightened?
Pfft!
Few people in the entire Great Xia Immortal Kingdom were enlightened.
They felt that Liu Jiang had definitely obtained a spiritual fruit that could greatly increase his cultivation level in a short period of time and was acting cool here.
This was because in history, there were many martial artists who obtained some opportunities and their cultivation levels soared in a short period of time. In order to gain the respect of others and gain cultivation resources, they lied that they had been enlightened.
Liu Jiang was most likely like this.
But no matter what, Liu Jiang was already a peak one-star Bronze warrior.
This shocked them and they looked at Liu Jiang differently.
In particular, Yang Fei's expression instantly darkened, and he sprayed envy, jealousy, and resentment at Liu Jiang.
"Haha, good, not bad, not bad. You've advanced to one-star Bronze and captured two two-star Bronze demons. I'll record two merit points for you. Go to the warehouse and get 20 silver taels later."
Zhao Laoxiu suppressed the envy and jealousy in his heart and smiled.
The Chief had a certain number of missions every year.
That was to capture enough demons.
Two bronze-level demons were a very good achievement.
Capturing 10 bronze-level demons in a year was enough.
He was naturally happy that Liu Jiang had completed one-fifth of it.
Liu Jiang cupped his fists and said, "Captain, these two demons are not ordinary demons. They have transformed into human form, but they don't show any demonic power.
The two of them had been lurking in town. They were the shopkeeper and a waiter of a teahouse.
The demonic power in their bodies was only revealed after I injured them. There's a high chance that the two demons are spies from the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom."
"What?"
Zhao Laoxiu was shocked.
Zhao Laoxiu quickly stepped forward and sent magic power into the bodies of the demons.
After checking, he said excitedly, "They cultivate the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom's Breath Concealing Technique. They're indeed spies from the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom."
Capturing the two spies from the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom was a great contribution.
It could even be compared to capturing more than 100 ordinary two-star Bronze demons.
His Black Clouds Town had completed the annual mission in an instant, and it was more than enough.
As the Chief, he would definitely be able to stand tall in the Inspectorate.
Yang Fei, who was at the side, was so jealous that he was about to burst. He kept contributing envious emotions to Liu Jiang.
Then he had an idea. He wanted to share the credit. He said shamelessly, "Chief, I'm best at interrogation. Give me these two demons. I'll definitely pry open their mouths in the shortest time possible and try to get them to tell me useful information. Perhaps I can expand the results."
Zhao Laoxiu frowned slightly.
After all, in the past, whichever team that captured the demons would handle the interrogation. The results of the interrogation would naturally belong to that team.
After all, Liu Jiang was the one who caught the demons. If he handed them over to someone else for interrogation, a portion of the gains would be shared. This was not fair to Liu Jiang.
However, Yang Fei's interrogation technique was indeed the most outstanding in the Inspection Bureau. Only by handing them over to him could he guarantee the results in the shortest time possible.
After all, there was a shelf life for spies.
It would take too long. If the spies' superior sensed that something was wrong and moved ahead of time, they would not be able to expand the results.
In order to ensure that the two demons were squeezed dry of all their value in a short period of time and increase the outcome of the battle, Zhao Laoxiu immediately said, "Do it immediately. You must make the spies speak in the shortest time possible."
Yang Fei perked up. "Yes."
With that, Yang Fei activated his spiritual power, picked up the two demons, and strode out of the Chiefs office.
Before he left, he did not forget to give Liu Jiang a wave of joy and resentment.
Zhao Laoxiu instructed, "Liu Dalin, Luo Caiyun, Chen Yifan, gather your men and be on standby."
The three of them: "Yes!"
With that, he turned around and left.
Only Liu Jiang was left.
Zhao Laoxiu patted Liu Jiang's shoulder and smiled gently. "In order to ensure that the results of the battle can be expanded in time, we will hand the two demons over to Yang Fei. However, no matter how much the results of the battle are expanded, your first credit will definitely be rewarded."
Zhao Laoxiu consoled Liu Jiang, afraid that he would feel uncomfortable. After all, Liu Jiang was already a two-star bronze warrior at a young age. His future was bright. He would not want to anger Liu Jiang.
Liu Jiang felt a little uncomfortable, but he completely understood. In addition, the Chief had already lowered himself and was speaking to him so politely. The discomfort in his heart dissipated instantly.
Moreover, the demons had already been taken away, so he naturally knew his limits.
Liu Jiang chuckled and said, "Chief, you're right. I don't have any experience in interrogation. Perhaps I can kill the spy, but I won't be able to get anything out of him.
Deputy Chief Yang's interrogation methods are exceptionally powerful. When the results of the battle are expanded, I can naturally get more credit. I look forward to Deputy Chief Yang prying open the mouths of the two demons to maximize the results."
"Well said."
Zhao Laoxiu did not find any dissatisfaction on Liu Jiang's face and could not help but nod in satisfaction.
He looked at Liu Jiang with increasing fondness.
Talented, capable, sensible, with a sense of propriety.
He was capable but not arrogant.
He had a feeling that a new star in the inspector world was about to rise rapidly.
His daughter was only eight years old. If she was a little older, he would have betrothed her to Liu Jiang.
Joy from Zhao Laoxiu, +1650, +…
