"Little Shen."

Xu Weimin looked at Shen Qing and made a final decision, "Miss Shen, you're the only person you know here, so let's maintain the status quo for now."

"You can move there after the new residential area is built."

Shen Qing responded and led Shen Qingtang out of the conference room to prepare for processing various certificates.

As soon as the door closed, Fang Shu suddenly looked at Li Jianghan and asked, "What was that expression you were making just now?"

Li Jianghan took a sip of tea and said, "That girl seems to have some mental problems. She has a lot of memory loss. Dayong... has been extinct for several years."

"Oh right, it's that Sleeping Corpse Dao Qian."

……

The Foreign Affairs Bureau truly lives up to its reputation as a special department; they expedite the processing of ID cards, bank cards, and all sorts of documents. They took photos here, and the documents were delivered in less than an hour.

Shen Qingtang turned the small cards over and over with great curiosity.

Shen Qing shook her head.

The heroine hasn't even truly understood this world yet, but the issue of her identity has already been resolved.

After this was reported, it didn't seem to change much from before.

However, he was certain of one thing: although he had been influenced, it was still within his own mind, and the female knight-errant was also unintentional.

Then we'll just get along as we normally would.

As he was thinking, a slender hand suddenly reached out in front of him.

"Here, take this."

Shen Qing was stunned for a moment when she saw the bank card that Shen Qingtang handed over, wondering what the heroine meant.

"Um?"

"Didn't your boss say there would be a salary inside?"

Shen Qingtang spoke earnestly.

"I'll just return it to you. Besides, I'm not familiar with this place yet, and you'll end up paying anyway, so you might as well keep it."

She suddenly had a feeling that she shouldn't be too distant from Shen Qing.

"Okay, I'll hold it for you for now."

The heroine's situation is now settled; the next step is to introduce her to the world.

But Shen Qing had other things to do, so he waited at the meeting room door until Fang Shu came out.

"Captain, how's the Corpse-Sleeping Path going?"

"We already have the results." Fang Shu didn't hide anything. "Tomorrow, the deputy director will personally lead the team, cooperating with Night Owl, and all team leaders will be mobilized."

Shen Qing was slightly taken aback. This seemed to be quite a large-scale operation; it was the first time she had ever seen one like this.

Fang Shu glanced at him and continued, "This mission is not suitable for ordinary members."

That disciple of the Corpse-Sleeping Sect is at the seventh rank, which is equivalent to D-level, and he might even be keeping zombies of the same level.

He paused for a moment, then changed the subject.

"Although you are quite strong, you have another mission that requires a captain-level supernatural being to lead the team."

We discovered signs of stranger activity near one of our secret research facilities in the suburbs, as if they were scouting the area, which we suspect is also related to the Corpse Sleeping Passage.

So when we go to deal with the target tomorrow, you'll need to keep an eye on things at the research institute.

As he spoke, Fang Shu became serious, "Don't let your guard down. People from the Corpse-Sleeping Path can control many walking corpses, as well as demons that have become spirits from earth and wood."

Helpless, Shen Qing could only nod and accept the task.

With so many big shots mobilized, dealing with the Sleeping Corpse Path is indeed a matter of whether he's there or not.

Shen Qing and Shen Qingtang had only taken a few steps when they ran into Xie Chong, who was about to say something.

Xie Chong looked at Shen Qingtang next to Shen Qing and was momentarily confused.

"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law?"

"No, you've misunderstood. We're just friends," Shen Qing said casually. He'd already explained, so whether he believed it or not was up to him.

"Oh, friend!"

Xie Chong raised an eyebrow. He simply couldn't believe it. Damn it, he wasn't living with his girlfriend?

Don't tell him you're a roommate. Even if the girl didn't deny it, you've already chosen to share an apartment, why are you living in that shabby place?

Although he is somewhat averse to meat, if it were him, he would definitely not choose to live there.

"Say what you want," Xie Chong said, too lazy to argue. "But what's your sister-in-law doing here?"

"Of course, he's awakened his abilities too."

"what?"

Xie Chong was stunned. "No, is there something wrong with the feng shui around you?"

Not only are you attracting demons, but Chen Chen just appeared, and now another one is showing up. Isn't the awakening rate around you a bit too high?

Shen Qing didn't respond to his question. "By the way, where's Chen Chen? I haven't seen him today?"

Xie Chong shook his head. "I don't know. It seems like he went somewhere to experiment with his talent and was afraid of being seen."

Afraid of being seen?

Shen Qing suddenly became curious about what kind of weird ability it was.

……

The patrol time was over, so the female warrior stayed at the base for the time being. She needed to hand over her lantern to the research department for further study.

Until evening.

After dinner, Shen Qing sat on the sofa, somewhat lost in thought. Even though he knew that if the sky fell, there would be tall people to hold it up, he still felt uneasy after learning the general truth about the world.

He couldn't afford to offend even a seventh-rank disciple of the Corpse-Sleeping Dao.

In that place known as the world of supernatural beings, there are undoubtedly even stronger beings.

His desire for power had never been so intense.

Fortunately, the female warrior can take him into the realm of evil thoughts, which may be a way for him to quickly improve his strength.

It's not just about acquiring entries and karma points; cultivation isn't just about sitting in meditation.

The same applies to the ninth rank and the eighth rank.

Looking at Shen Qingtang coming out of the kitchen, Shen Qing suddenly spoke, "Do you know about the Crossing World Alliance?"

Shen Qingtang shook her head.

"Who is that saint?"

He didn't even know the emperor of his own dynasty, but he did know about a sage, and Li Jianghan had mentioned those two words before.

"A saint is a saint."

Shen Qingtang said matter-of-factly, "He suppressed all the demons in the world for a thousand years, which is why the human world is not in complete chaos."

"ha?"

Shen Qing opened his mouth, as if a real big shot had appeared, suppressing all demons and monsters for a thousand years? It was like a myth.

However, the female warrior didn't know the answer if she asked any further questions, since she was just an ordinary disciple of a security escort agency.

"Would it be convenient to enter the realm of evil thoughts again?"

Shen Qing didn't press further; strength was the most important thing right now.

……

Under a dim sky.

Shen Qing summoned the ghost horse. Why walk when you have a mount? It's just that he doesn't know how to ride.

"Riding a horse isn't difficult, I'll teach you."

The roles were instantly reversed; previously, Shen Qing had been teaching the female warrior to read and do math, but now the roles were reversed.

However, it is not very difficult. The main thing is to maintain balance and master some horse control skills. It takes an average person about two or three hours.

Not to mention Shen Qing.

Half an hour later, he began galloping on his horse across the black soil.

The elusive horse galloped on its four hooves amidst flames, leaving a streak of light in the dim world. Facing the cold wind carrying a chilling aura, it felt an indescribable sense of exhilaration.

Just then.

The monstrous horse suddenly let out a painful neigh, its front hooves rearing up violently, almost throwing Shen Qing off.

Suddenly, a rock in front of them moved.

There was actually a demon hidden there, but it was so well integrated with its surroundings that Shen Qing didn't even notice it.

With its rough, dark brown skin, two meters long, and a pair of blood-red eyes staring intently at him, it resembled a large lizard.

"Eighth rank?"

Shen Qing steadied himself and grinned.

This was the first time he had truly fought against a demon of the same rank since breaking through to the eighth rank.

The ghostly horse vanished in a wisp of ghostly fire, and Shen Qing used the momentum to leap into the air and ride directly on the giant lizard.

Without any skill, he swung his fist and repeatedly smashed it against its head with a series of "bangs".

The giant lizard writhed wildly, its thick tail lashing the ground, instantly shattering the surrounding rocks, but to no avail.

Before long, its hideous head deflated, and blood splattered everywhere.

"Has my strength increased too much, or is this demon too weak?"

Shen Qing stood up without even breaking a sweat.

This is completely inferior to the bears and zombies we killed before, and even less so to the Moon-Gazing Rhinoceros. Its only strength is its ability to hide.

And yet, he deliberately exposed himself.
