"Just because of this?"
Zhao Xingtian didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Who told you that you can't run around after joining the special department?"
Hearing this, Xu Yan was also a little confused. "Isn't that so?
Senior, aren't you always in charge of Qingyun Province and can't leave casually? "
"I'm in charge of Qingyun Province because I'm old and don't want to run around outside. That's why I applied for the position of a branch director to retire!"
"Most of the young Heaven-ranks in the special department are inspectors. They usually find a place to cultivate and only take action when there's an anomaly!"
"So that's the case!"
Xu Yan understood that he was wrong. It turned out that not all Heaven-ranks were in charge of a province.
Thinking about it, there were quite a lot of Heaven-ranks in the special department!
There were 80 provinces in the Federation, which meant that there were 80 Heaven-ranks. This was only a small portion of the retired ones. Adding the young ones, there were probably 200 Heaven-ranks in the special department!
At this rate, the number of Legend-ranks in the special department was estimated to be in the double digits!
The special department was not to be underestimated!
"Since that's the case, I choose to join the special department!" Xu Yan looked at Zhao Xingtian and said.
"Okay!
I'll send your news back in a while and let the headquarters make a record for you. When you're free in a few days, you can report to the Federation! "Zhao Xingtian said happily.
"Okay, I'll settle the matters at hand first and report to the headquarters in a few days." Xu Yan nodded.
After chatting for a while, Zhao Xingtian said goodbye.
After taking a shower and changing his clothes, Xu Yan rode his bicycle to the old city's antique street.
No matter when, finding modification points was always the first priority!
As long as there were modification points, Xu Yan could continue to become stronger.
Switching the bicycle to invisible flying mode, Xu Yan arrived at the antique street in less than ten minutes.
The old city's antique street was still bustling with people coming and going.
Finding a place where no one was around, Xu Yan quietly put away his bicycle and walked to the stall where he bought the Buddha finger yesterday.
Where he touched last time, Xu Yan continued to touch from the same place.
"Hey, young man, you're here again today?
Is there anything else you want to buy? "The old man seemed to have remembered Xu Yan. Seeing that Xu Yan had come again, he took the initiative to greet him.
"Let's take a look first. If there's anything interesting, we'll talk about it," Xu Yan replied with a smile.
Xu Yan still had a good impression of this old man. After all, the more than 2,000 Modification Points on him was a clue provided by this old man.
"Feel free to look around. If there's anything you want, feel free to tell me. I'll definitely give you a discounted price!" The old man said generously.
"Okay, let me have a look first." While speaking, Xu Yan started to touch the place where he had left off last time, one after another.
Unfortunately, he wasn't as lucky as yesterday. After looting all the remaining items, he only obtained less than 10 modification points.
Xu Yan could only move on to the next stall under the old man's expectant gaze.
One stall after another, it was soon night time. When the last stall had closed, Xu Yan got up and prepared to leave.
In order to prevent his sudden disappearance from scaring the old men who were still strolling around nearby, Xu Yan walked to the alley where he had put away his bicycle in the morning.
As soon as he stepped into the alley, the noise of the antique street suddenly disappeared.
Xu Yan pushed the door out of curiosity and found that the stall owner who was packing up just now, as well as the group of old men who had come for a walk, had all disappeared.
The entire antique street was empty. There wasn't a single person, not even a sound. It was eerily quiet.
A few street lamps also seemed to be broken. They flickered on and off, as if they would completely darken at any time.
"It seems that I've encountered another freak." Xu Yan felt a little strange. Since he had obtained power, why had he been encountering freaks every day?
Could it be that the greater the power, the greater the responsibility?
If that was the case, wouldn't those Legendary Masters be fighting against freaks all the time?
There must be something wrong with him. That's why he had been encountering freaks all the time.
Xu Yan carefully recalled that he had started encountering freaks frequently after his Iron Cloak Skill had been perfected. It should have started from when he met that little girl freak!
Could it be that I've been cursed by that little girl freak?
Xu Yan thought of what that little girl freak had said before she died. His expression was a little strange.
It seemed that he had been cursed for real!
But so what!
No matter what kind of freak you are, I'll kill one if one comes, I'll kill a pair if two come!
I'll kill them until they cry and fear!
The curse would naturally be broken by itself!
At the end of the road, a white figure suddenly appeared.
Its figure was translucent, standing alone at the end of the road, as if it would disperse with a blow of the wind.
Every time the street lamps flickered, its figure would get closer to Xu Yan, giving him an inexplicable sense of oppression.
It seemed that when it really came to Xu Yan, Xu Yan would be killed by it.
Xu Yan did not say anything. He just watched as the street lamps dimmed and lit up again.
The white figure moved forward very quickly. In less than two minutes, he could only see a silhouette from afar. Now, he could clearly see its facial expression.
Its eyes were pale, and there was a very strange smile on its face. This strange expression made people feel a sense of fear when they saw it.
The street lamps were still flickering, and the white figure was getting closer to Xu Yan.
The white figure's smile was even more exaggerated, as if the meat that was about to enter its mouth would make it very happy.
The street lamps flickered again. This time, there were only two flashes left in the position of the freak and Xu Yan.
Looking at the excited white figure, the corners of Xu Yan's mouth curled up.
The street lamps dimmed again and lit up again.
Xu Yan disappeared from his original position and appeared in front of the white figure.
Upon seeing Xu Yan suddenly appear in front of it, the white figure was stunned.
Looking at the stunned white figure, Xu Yan opened his mouth, and his expression was a little ferocious.
"Has anyone ever told you that your expression is very disgusting?"
Xu Yan reached out his hand, grabbed the white figure's neck, and lifted it up.
Then, he gathered his inner strength and smashed its head into pieces with a punch!
The freak whose head was smashed scattered into a few wisps of gray air, and it let out a piercing scream.
After a while, the gray air currents merged together and formed the white figure.
However, this white figure seemed to have been burned by Xu Yan's inner strength. It looked much weaker, and its body was more transparent.
The white figure looked at Xu Yan from afar, revealing an expression of anger and fear.
"This expression is more like it!
This expression is likable! "Xu Yan said with a laugh.
Hearing Xu Yan's wild laughter, the white figure took a step back, then turned around and ran!
"Want to leave?
Did I say you could leave? "
Xu Yan's voice suddenly came from behind the white figure, and it seemed to be very close.
