Nightmare Apostle

Chapter 1383: Chapter 875: Deputy Captain of the Law Enforcement Team (Part 4)

"Little Yang, you don’t need to worry about my matters anymore. The most important thing for you now is that taking this step forward will truly bring you into the circle at the provincial office level. As long as you do your best, the higher authorities will notice you."

After a pause, Nalan Shuo added, "What I mean by ’higher authorities’ isn’t the Jiangbei Province Office, but those bigwigs even higher up in the general bureau."

Yang Xiao could feel the sincerity in Director Nalan’s words. He knew Director Nalan dreamed of him becoming a revered figure.

"Director, I can’t bear to leave you. I’d rather not take the position at the provincial office. I hope to heal your body; I want to stay with you and everyone else," said Yang Xiao, speaking from the heart.

"I understand, I truly do." Nalan Shuo nodded, gently patting Yang Xiao’s leg. "I’m aware of my condition. I can hold on for a few more years. As for the Ghost Sect matter, don’t concern yourself. You know, we’re not on good terms with those Japanese ghosts. Counting on them to rescue people is impossible."

"Moreover, the process entails great risk, not only for me but also for those involved in the rescue. A single mistake could lead to death for us both."

"The person qualified to heal me isn’t just any angel envoy. They need to have strong spiritual power, at least of the Upper Ghost Level. Most importantly, they need a runaway space-type magical artifact, which you refer to as Ghost Tomb."

"Few people meet both these criteria, even in Japan. They wouldn’t be unknown figures. On top of that, for such a person to risk everything to save me makes it all the more difficult."

Nalan Shuo spoke about this without regret, addressing the matter straightforwardly and with great composure.

"I’m going to write to the Esoteric Cannibal Buddha and ask him to help me," said Yang Xiao, through gritted teeth.

When the Cannibal Buddha was mentioned, Nalan Shuo fell silent. If there was a last glimmer of hope, the Cannibal Buddha was undoubtedly the best helper.

In this world, there were few challenges that a strong figure of such stature couldn’t overcome.

Yang Xiao gave the Director no chance to refuse. Once the provincial office and the Esoteric Sect’s liaison station were fully established, Yang Xiao planned to personally contact the Cannibal Buddha for assistance.

"Little Yang, you mentioned someone put a bounty on your head. The provincial office is aware of this. They are very angry and promise to investigate thoroughly."

Nalan Shuo snorted coldly, "In our Jiangbei Province, such things haven’t happened for a long time. They must be tired of living, openly putting a bounty on a current Director of the Patrol Defense Office!"

"You needn’t worry too much. Almost no major force will dare get involved in this matter. Generally, evil cultivators wouldn’t either unless they’re those desperate fugitives."

Upon hearing this, Yang Xiao felt at ease. After all, he had the Patrol Defense Office as a backing. This matter had already crossed their limits and must be severely punished!

If he remained unharmed, it would suffice. But if, unfortunately, he was killed, the matter would escalate. The provincial office would surely deploy their elite forces, and not just his killer but anyone mildly connected with the event in the world of martial arts would have to deal with the Patrol Defense Office’s brothers purging them as evil cultivators.

If the Patrol Defense Office couldn’t handle such a matter, it might as well close its doors. The three major forces would be seen as a joke.

Despite speaking like this, out of caution, Nalan Shuo advised Yang Xiao to be more attentive in the coming period, prioritizing safety and preferably staying in Rongcheng.

Yang Xiao comforted his Director, saying he wasn’t alone, with Sui Brother accompanying him, who was also a You Level Middle skilled master.

As long as they were together, they could handle even an Upper Ghost Level expert.

"However... Sui Brother is, after all, a wanted man, so moving around isn’t convenient," Yang Xiao admitted.

"That’s easy to handle. I’ll contact the provincial office later to have the warrant revoked," Nalan Shuo said boldly, slapping the table to finalize the matter.

"Really? Then I thank you on behalf of Sui Brother!" Yang Xiao’s heart leaped with joy.

Director Nalan never made empty promises; if he said he could do it, then he certainly could.

Yet Yang Xiao also had concerns. After all, this person was wanted by Yiling Academy, and the two sides were almost at odds. If the Jiangbei Province Office revoked the warrant, it would be a slap in the face to those old folks at Yiling Academy.

Yang Xiao was pleased to see this happen but, from the Patrol Defense Office’s perspective, this wasn’t a wise move.

Unexpectedly, upon hearing Yang Xiao’s concern, Nalan Shuo sneered, "Calling it Upper Three Bookshops as a courtesy."
