The Chief led Zhu Xiaozhu and Liu Jiang into the hall of the Inspection Bureau.

After they were seated.

The three of them chatted for a while.

Then Zhu Xiaozhu went straight to the point.

In order to apply for cultivation resources for Liu Jiang, he needed to understand Liu Jiang’s situation.

Zhu Xiaozhu asked, “Liu Jiang, did you cultivate a Dharma spell to hide your cultivation level?”

“Sir, you’re really smart. You guessed it right in an instant.” Liu Jiang flattered him with a serious face.

Joy from Zhu Xiaozhu, +1600, +…

Zhu Xiaozhu nodded coolly and said, “As I’d expected.”

He secretly gave himself a thumbs up. He was really too smart.

On the side, Zhao Laoxiu came to a realization. Oh, so that was how it was!

Zhu Xiaozhu’s bright eyes revealed curiosity as he asked, “What martial technique is it?”

“Sunflower Treasure Tome!” Liu Jiang lied immediately.

“Sunflower Treasure Tome!” Zhu Xiaozhu memorized this name.

The effect of concealing his cultivation level was so strong that Zhu Xiaozhu could not see through him. He was determined to get his hands on the book and train himself.

Beside him, Zhao Laoxiu quietly memorized this name.

If he could learn from the Sunflower Treasure Tome and completely hide his cultivation level, it would come in handy sometimes.

Zhu Xiaozhu asked again, “Are you from the Liu family in Qingzhou?”

“Lord, you’re too amazing. You even know this?” Liu Jiang flattered him again.

He realized that this Supervisor Zhu was a little fun. He pretended to be cool, but in fact, he was very silly. He was very emotional.

He was prepared to curry favor and collect some joy.

Liu Jiang was overjoyed when he saw the Treasure Tree absorb another 3,000 points of the power of emotions.

The corners of Zhu Xiaozhu’s lips curled up slightly. He was really happy to be praised. At home, he was scolded all day. He was either asked to learn cultivation techniques or practice martial arts. It was more fun to be out.

(*^ ^*)

In the future, I would have to go often to the Inspectorate of the Eastern Mountain County and run errands for my older brother, Liu Jiang thought.

In order to maintain the authority of a Supervisor, Zhu Xiaozhu did not show his joy. He pursed his lips and continued to pretend to be cool. He said, “I’m done asking questions. Finally, I need to examine your Dharma powers to ensure that you did not cultivate any evil techniques or get possessed by evil spirits.”

Liu Jiang said obsequiously, “It’s my honor to be able to let the handsome, charming, and popular Supervisor inspect my powers.”

Joy from Zhu Xiaozhu, +2200, +…

Zhu Xiaozhu was happy. He felt that Liu Jiang was really a good person.

Although he’s strange sometimes, he’s a good person.

Zhu Xiaozhu patted Liu Jiang’s shoulder coolly and said, “You’re a good person. I’ll go back and put in a good word for you. I’ll try to apply for more cultivation resources for you.”

Zhao Laoxiu’s lips twitched.

This works too? Liu Jiang thought.

I’m obviously sucking up to him, and he’s beaming and not even aware of it.

What the f*ck…

He could now tell that Supervisor Zhu had just entered society and did not have any social experience.

Zhu Xiaozhu reminded him, “Liu Jiang, pay attention. I’m going to start the examination.”

“Yeah.”

With a serious expression, Zhu Xiaozhu formed a seal with both hands. A white light appeared in his palm.

He extended his hand and pointed. A white ball of light landed on Liu Jiang.

“The light of righteousness did not turn black. You did not cultivate evil techniques or get possessed by evil spirits.”

Zhu Xiaozhu smiled happily.

He was surprisingly good-looking. Liu Jiang was stunned.

He shivered. He actually thought that a man was good-looking.

That was enough.

Liu Jiang narrowed his eyes and glanced at Zhu Xiaozhu’s neck. He had an Adam’s apple.

He glanced down imperceptibly. It was flat.

Further down…

This was definitely not a cross-dressing scene seen in television dramas or movies.

This was definitely a man.

It was enough that a man was so good-looking.

Zhu Xiaozhu said, “If there’s no problem, the resources will be available in about 10 days.”

Liu Jiang said, “Thank you so much, Supervisor Zhu.”

“You’re welcome.” Zhu Xiaozhu nodded coolly and said to Zhao Laoxiu, “Thank you for your hospitality these past two days, Chief Zhao. I’ll go back to report now.”

Zhao Laoxiu and Liu Jiang sent Zhu Xiaozhu to the door. Zhang Daliang and the other two, who had received notification, were already waiting outside.

Liu Jiang went forward and gave Zhang Daliang a bear hug. “Senior Brother, you have to take care.”

“Little Junior Brother, you have to take care too.” Zhang Daliang was a little teary-eyed. Fortunately, Liu Jiang was amazing now. He was very pleased.

He directly gave Liu Jiang more than 3,000 joyous emotions.

Zhang Daliang reminded him again, “You have to work hard in cultivation and not slack off. We have to make a name for ourselves. We can’t let those people from the Ethereal Immortal Sect laugh at us, and we can’t let our master be mocked because of us.”

As he spoke, Zhang Daliang became a little excited. “We want to show those people from the Ethereal Immortal Sect that even though they chased us out of the sect, we can still make a name for ourselves.”

Being chased out of the Ethereal Immortal Sect like a dog in front of his friends and lover was the biggest pain in Zhang Daliang and Liu Jiang’s hearts.

They had sworn to make a name for themselves and make the Ethereal Immortal Sect regret their decision.

However, the current Liu Jiang did not have much resentment toward the Ethereal Immortal Sect.

However, if he became successful in the future and his combat strength increased, he could help the dead ghost Liu Jiang vent his anger and satisfy his last wish.

Liu Jiang nodded. “Yes, you have to work hard too.”

Zhang Daliang gritted his teeth and said, “Of course I’ll work hard. I won’t let Junior Sister marry that bastard, Yin Hao.”

He sounded ruthless, but he was in despair.

Yin Hao was the number one prodigy of the Ethereal Immortal Sect. He was probably at the nine-star bronze level by now.

The key was that Yin Hao’s father was the sect master of the Ethereal Immortal Sect, the number one expert of the Ethereal Immortal Sect, an almighty at the eight-star gold level. He was famous in the entire Qingzhou Province.

He had talent and a good family background.

How could Zhang Daliang compete with the other party?

Liu Jiang consoled him, “Senior Sister’s wedding is more than a year away. At that time, Yin Hao might have already died from Qi deviation.”

“You kid.” Zhang Daliang was delighted. Then he punched Liu Jiang’s chest heavily.

Watching the three of them leave, Liu Jiang felt a little downcast.

Zhao Laoxiu said, “Liu Jiang, come to my study room to claim the first place prize.”

“Alright.” Liu Jiang followed Zhao Laoxiu to his study.

“Liu Jiang, I didn’t expect your combat strength to be so extraordinary,” the Chief said in a very amiable tone.

His kind tone was affectionate.

This treatment was something that the dead ghost Liu Jiang had never enjoyed, even though he was a descendant of the Liu Clan in Qingzhou Province.

Liu Jiang sighed inwardly. Indeed, he had become stronger. Only by becoming stronger could he be acknowledged and valued.

Having lived two lifetimes, Liu Jiang had a deep understanding of this.

When one became a big shot, just a casual greeting could make others feel flattered and remember it for the rest of their lives. They could even feel proud and brag about it everywhere to raise their status.

But when you become a pile of dog sh*t, others will find you disgusting and irksome.

That was why he wanted to gain the recognition and respect of others.

So he would work hard to improve his own ability and make himself better.

When you’re powerful, capable, rich, and outstanding, others will naturally value and respect you, he thought.

Liu Jiang’s desire for strength became slightly stronger.

Liu Jiang flattered the Chief respectfully, “Compared to Chairman’s monstrous combat power, I’m still far from it.”

Although Zhao Laoxiu valued him, Liu Jiang was not arrogant because of this. Instead, he became even more respectful.

Not only was Zhao Laoxiu a big shot in the Inspection Bureau of Black Clouds Town, but he was also the top martial expert of the town, a five-star Bronze expert.

One should always show respect and reverence to the strong in this dangerous world

There was a saying that young people should not be too arrogant.

In this dangerous world, his strength was still too low.

Moreover, sucking up could make him happy. It was killing two birds with one stone.

Feeling the joy of instantly earning more than 3,000 joyous emotions, Liu Jiang was secretly happy.

Indeed, people liked to listen to flattery.

No wonder the ancients said that flattery was what everyone loved to hear.
