“Dr. Chen sure is busy.”
Li Changjun put away the awkward expression on his face and took the initiative to exchange greetings with Chen Yu.
After saying a few words of meaningless nonsense, Li Changjun began to introduce the old man.
“Dr. Chen, let me introduce you.”
“This is Daoist Priest Bai He, from Xuyun Temple of Qingfeng Mountain.”
“He’s already a hundred years old this year, and is an extraordinary person.”
Daoist Bai He had an arrogant expression as he looked at Chen Yu with even more disdain.
“Captain Li, you didn’t come here this time just to introduce this old gentleman to me, right?” Chen Yu asked with a faint smile.
Hearing this, Li Changjun took out a red appointment letter from his bag.
“Dr. Chen, you’re really good at predicting things. After some research, the higher-ups want to hire you as a consultant for the Special Missions Division.” The highest authorities noticed supernatural incidents happening more frequently, so a special department was established.
Special Missions Division.
Many branches of this Special Missions Division were established in the various provinces.
Li Changjun, who had often dealt with supernatural events, was the deputy team leader.
The Police Chief was the team leader.
“A consultant is like you would be an external expert to our team. If we encounter something we can’t solve, we’ll have to trouble you to help.”
“I can help you,” Chen Yu said with a smile. “However, 1 can only help you once a month at most.”
“Humph!”
A series of discordant and cold snorts broke Li Changjun’s introduction.
“Captain Lee, you’ve been deceived.”
The old man said.
“I was?”
“Daoist Bai He, what do you mean?” Li Changjun asked in confusion. Who deceived me?
“The person in front of you is not an otherworldly specialist.”
“He’s just a charlatan who only knows how to lie his way around.”
The Special Missions Division could mobilize all the functional departments within a province at any moment, and they would have to accept the Special Missions Division as their direct leader if needed.
It was equivalent to an existence below one and above ten thousand others.
Daoist Bai He was the organization’s first member and learned that Li Changjun would invite an expert to be his special consultant.
He got curious, as he was already one of the top cultivators in the province.
Who else could have a cultivation higher than his?
He did not expect it to be a child.
“Daoist, Dr. Chen is not a charlatan. He’s someone truly capable.”
Guessing that Daoist Bai He might have made the mistake of judging a book by its cover, Li Changjun hurriedly explained.
“I’ve been cultivating for more than ninety years. I can tell at a glance whether this person is capable or not.”
Daoist Bai He replied to Li Changjun with disdain.
Cultivators possessed spiritual energy, but there was no spiritual energy in
Chen Yu’s body to speak of.
He was no different from an ordinary person.
“As for the content of his livestream, it should have been calculated through divination.”
Daoist Bai He used a tone that seemed to have seen through everything and stated that he could also achieve this easily.
Moreover, he could do it even better than Chen Yu.
“He has learned some superficial divination techniques and is capable of deceiving someone ordinary.”
“But in my eyes, he’s only slightly more useful than an ordinary person.”
“Young man, 1’11 give you a few words of advice,” Daoist Bai He reprimanded Chen Yu.
“The path of cultivation is not easy. Don’t think you’re capable just because you’ve learned some superficial skills.”
“Sir,” Chen Yu replied with a faint smile, “you seem to have gotten something wrong.”
“I’m just an ordinary psychologist. I’ve never claimed to be a cultivator.”
“Your cultivation base isn’t much, but your glib tongue is top-notch.” Daoist Bai He sneered.
At this moment, Daoist Bai He firmly believed that Chen Yu’s reputation was undeserved.
Relying on divination, one could calculate the good or bad luck of others to a certain extent.
Chen Yu must have been afraid that his fellow cultivators would expose him, so he deliberately pretended to be a psychologist.
“Sir Daoist, let’s talk outside.”
Daoist Bai He didn’t believe in Chen Yu, but Li Changjun wholeheartedly believed in him.
After all, if he didn’t have the Black Cat Sheriff sticker that Chen Yu had given him, Li Changjun wouldn’t be standing here today.
He would’ve been hung on a portrait if he didn’t believe Chen Yu.
Daoist Bai He raised his hand to push Li Changjun away and firmly said, “1 was invited to join the Special Missions Division to eliminate evil and protect the good.”
“If you insist on hiring this person as a consultant,”
“Humph! I don’t think I will stay in this Special Missions Division!”
Daoist Bai He was the top cultivator in the province and had always thought highly of himself.
“Associating me with a charlatan is simply humiliating.”
Compared to Daoist Bai He, who was full of vigor, Chen Yu kept his faint smile.
This old man was really interesting.
Wasn’t it normal for someone in the Aura Refining Stage to be unable to see through the cultivation of someone else in the Foundation Stage?
Seeing Chen Yu’s faint smile, Daoist Bai He was getting more annoyed.
The little huckster was sure bold, still putting on airs here.
“Sir Daoist, please calm down. There are some things that you don’t know.”
Worried that the two sides would start fighting, Li Changjun stopped Daoist Bai He.
He quickly talked about the Black Cat Sheriff Sticker.
“Look, it’s that thing that saved my life.”
Li Changjun pointed at the shelf.
Daoist Bai He gave a contemptuous glance.
The very next second, Daoist Bai He’s eyes almost popped out!
He turned three steps into two, rushing to the shelf like a gust of wind.
“But doing so will cause him to lose a large amount of spiritual energy!”
“Could he have dispersed his cultivation and given up on transcending?”
Daoist Bai He looked up and down at the ‘medicines’ and ‘devices’ on the shelves.
The more he looked, the more shocked he became.
Every item on the shelf contained a certain level of spiritual energy, especially some of them in the middle, which was enough to make Daoist Bai He drool. Spiritual energy has gotten extremely thin in this world.
To some extent, it was even more scarce than giant pandas.
When one stepped into cultivation, spiritual energy was equivalent to a cultivator’s second life.
Any cultivator would desperately search for spiritual energy to absorb it.
Which cultivator would be willing to pour out spiritual energy from their body?
The scene before him shattered Daoist Bai He’s worldly views.
Chen Yu didn’t keep the spiritual energy in his body for cultivation.
Instead, it was used to create spiritual tools.
Was he someone wasteful, or…
But, there was clearly no spiritual energy fluctuation inside Chen Yu’s body.
These spiritual tools…
No, no, they should be called spiritual weapons.
Compared to them, the spiritual tools he had were just a pile of trash.
How could a person without spiritual energy create these spiritual weapons?
The more Daoist Bai The more he thought about it, the more confused he became.
This was the first time in his life that he had encountered something that he could not understand.
Li Changjun smiled bitterly when he noticed that Daoist Bai He looked extremely shocked.
He was the same when he witnessed Chen Yu’s abilities back then.
When Chen Yu first revealed the circumstances of the fourth victim’s death, Li Changjun almost pulled out his gun.
A moment later, Daoist Bai He walked up to Chen Yu with a strange appearance.
“Young man, no, no, no, Senior, i have something to ask you.”
Daoist Bai He’s tone became respectful.
“Please speak,” replied Chen Yu.
After getting permission, Daoist Bai He asked carefully, “Senior, what is your realm?”
“You’re talking about levels, right?”
Chen Yu asked back.
Daoist White Crane nodded.
“I’m a state-certified first-class counselor.”
Chen Yu pulled open a drawer and took out a professional qualification certificate..
