Muscle is Strength - Chapter20

"There's no need for that. I'll go with you when things here are over. I also want to see what martial arts have become," Xu Yan said.

Xu Yan, who was about to leave, suddenly remembered something. He looked back at the middle-aged captain and said, "By the way, you won't blame me if I let this freak go, right?"

"No, no!

No one wants to fight a freak. Besides, freaks are endless. Even if you kill it now, it will appear again after a while! "The middle-aged man waved his hand to indicate that he did not mind and then explained.

"That's good."

Xu Yan nodded and then looked at the young man who had recognized him as a Warrior Sage. "After you're done with things here, just call me at this number."

After that, Xu Yan gave his mobile phone number to Xiang Chong, summoned his bicycle, and rode away.

"Xu Yan, you've reached the Heaven-tier!" Before he reached home, Zhao Gongming called, his voice full of shock.

"You're quite well-informed!

You called me before I reached home, "Xu Yan teased.

"So you're saying that you really solved the City-destroying Crimson Mist?!"

"Yes, why? You don't believe that I solved the freak?"

"Since you've reached the Heaven-tier, I definitely believe it!"

Zhao Gongming was a little emotional. "I remember that when we first met, you were only at the Earth-tier. It's only been a few days, and you've reached the Heaven-tier!"

"Yes, it's only been a few days, and I've reached this level. It feels like a dream."

Xu Yan was also a little emotional. How many days had it been since he got the Modifier?

He had already reached the Warrior Sage level. He was only one realm away from being the best in the world, at least on the surface.

If Xu Yan's calculation was correct, he would be able to fully control the power of a Warrior Sage in less than three days. By then, he would be able to level up again and reach the Human Immortal Realm, becoming the best in the world.

Both of them were silent.

After a while, Zhao Gongming broke the silence and said, "Xu Yan, can I ask you for a favor?

It's a personal request. "

"What favor?

As long as I can solve it, just say it, "Xu Yan said directly.

"Thank you!"

Hearing Xu Yan's straightforward answer, Zhao Gongming was a little touched. After all, he wasn't particularly close with Xu Yan. They had only met once, and after that, they contacted each other through their phones.

"You're welcome. After all, you've provided me with a lot of information about the freaks. It's reasonable for me to help you this time. Just tell me what you need."

"Yes!

Do you remember when we used to chat and I told you that I was an orphan? "

Xu Yan recalled for a moment. It seemed like Zhao Gongming did say that. "Yes, you did say that. What do you think is related to this?"

"Yes, actually, I'm not an orphan. I had parents before I was thirteen, but when I was thirteen, the village where my family lived was shrouded in a strange phenomenon!"

"That day, I happened to be grazing the cows on the hillside outside the village, so I was lucky enough to survive."

"I saw the village being devoured by the Freaks bit by bit with my own eyes, but there was nothing I could do. I could only watch helplessly."

"Although I awakened my superpower later, I'm just an ordinary superpower user. I'm not even an Earth-level superpower user. It's impossible for me to be a match for the Freaks, so I can only look for you."

After listening to Zhao Gongming, Xu Yan lamented Zhao Gongming's misfortune. However, he also had some doubts in his heart. "Since you've already joined the special department, why don't you just ask the powerhouses of the special department to help you?

Isn't the special department specialized in dealing with the Freaks? "

"It's not like that," Zhao Gongming explained.

"Although the special department specializes in dealing with the Freaks, the special department only deals with the Freaks that will cause great harm to humans. After all, the special department has always been short of manpower. It's impossible for them to know all the Freaks in the world.

"The Freak that devoured my village hasn't moved for many years. After the special department's evaluation, it was deemed to be a Freak with a low level of danger but a high level of power. Therefore, the special department decided to ignore this Freak and let it stay there."

"I see." Xu Yan nodded and said, "Then I'll go with you!"

"Thank you. If you can solve the Freak in the village, I'll be indebted to you. If you have any errands in the future, I'll do my best!" Zhao Gongming's tone was excited as he thanked Zhao Gongming on the other side of the phone.

"You don't have to do this. Let me know when you're ready, or you can come to me directly."

Zhao Gongming thought for a moment and said, "I do need to prepare. I'll come to you tomorrow morning!"

"Okay, I'll wait for you at home!"

After hanging up the phone, Xu Yan put the car on the back of his hand and walked to his house.

"You are?" Xu Yan looked strangely at the old man standing in front of his house.

The old man looked at Xu Yan with a smile and said, "You must be Xu Yan. Let me introduce myself. I'm Zhao Xingtian, the director of the Qingyun Province branch of the special department."

"So it's Senior Zhao. I've heard a lot about you!" Xu Yan cupped his fists and said.

"You flatter me, you flatter me!

Your strength has reached the Heaven Stage at such a young age. Your strength is similar to mine. I don't dare to call you Senior! "Zhao Xingtian smiled and shook his head.

"Senior Zhao, you guard the Qingyun Province and protect the people. Your merits are boundless. Of course, you deserve to be called Senior!" Xu Yan took out the room key from his pocket and said, "Senior, let's talk inside."

After entering the house and taking a seat, Xu Yan poured a cup of tea for Zhao Xingtian and said, "Senior, why are you looking for me this time?"

Zhao Xingtian stretched out two fingers and said, "I'm looking for you today for two things."

"First, I want to see the new Heaven Stage in our Qingyun Province. Sure enough, you didn't let me down. Your strength is comparable to a veteran Heaven Stage at such a young age. Your talent is really extraordinary!"

"Senior, you flatter me!" Xu Yan said with a wry smile.

"You're too modest, Xu Yan!"

Zhao Xingtian paused, "At the age of 21, your strength has reached the Heaven Stage. In the entire Blue Planet, you're a genius among geniuses!"

"There's always someone better than you. Xu Yan doesn't dare to be proud!" Xu Yan continued, "Senior, let's talk about the second thing."

"Well, the second thing is that I want to invite you to join our special department!"

Zhao Xingtian stared into Xu Yan's eyes and said, "I know that Zhao Gongming has already invited you once, but you dragged him out. I'm here this time to ask why you don't want to join the special department?"

"I really want to join the special department, but because I don't like to stay in one place all the time, I'm hesitant."

Xu Yan paused and continued, "After all, my parents are ordinary people. If I join the special department, the safety of my family will definitely be guaranteed. This alone is very attractive."
