"This guy nad Xiao sure knows how to hide, doesn’t he?"
"And who knows how much longer we’ll have to go before we can see him..."
Group Leader Qi grumbled as he walked.
At this mont, he was deep within the dense forests of the southwest border.
Due to the unique terrain of the forest, they couldn’t use any vehicles, so the ergency response team he led had to follow Zhenyuan on foot.
After trekking hours of mountain paths, he was almost exhausted from the effort.
Next to him, Captain ng was also dripping with sweat, panting heavily.
Initially, he hadn’t planned to co along, but fearing sothing might happen to Group Leader Qi and the others, he stubbornly joined the team.
But what he didn’t expect at all was that once they entered the mountains, they’d have to walk for most of the day.
His calves were aching, sweat drenched his body, and his lungs felt like they were on fire as he gasped for air.
If they couldn’t find the person soon, he might just collapse here from exhaustion.
As they walked, under the guidance of Zhenyuan, they passed through the forest and arrived at a place filled with cliffs and precipices.
"Daoist, there’s no path ahead!"
Group Leader Qi gasped for breath as he spoke.
"My old friend should be right around here!"
Zhenyuan gently stroked his long beard and spoke slowly.
"What? Here?"
Upon hearing this, Group Leader Qi was both pleasantly surprised and amazed.
The surrounding area was full of sheer cliffs, surely not a place a person could live in!
Captain ng and the others were equally curious.
Everyone looked around, but no matter how they examined the area, it didn’t seem like anyone lived here.
At that mont, Zhenyuan called out loudly, "Old Daoist Zhenyuan here to visit, may Younger Brother Xiao please show himself!"
His voice echoed layer by layer in the mountains.
Group Leader Qi and the others kept looking around, but even after a long while, they saw no trace of anyone.
Just as Zhenyuan’s echoes were fading, a voice suddenly followed.
"So it’s the old Daoist!"
As soon as this voice sounded, everyone suddenly felt the temperature rise a bit.
"Look over there, what is that?"
A mber of the ergency response team suddenly stretched out his hand, pointing to the distant sky.
Upon hearing this, everyone turned their gazes toward where he was pointing.
Although the sunlight was dazzling, they could still see a silhouette flying toward them.
"This... how is this possible?"
Captain ng and the others were only dispatched to assist with the investigation, so they were unaware of Zhenyuan’s identity or the Spiritual Qi Revival.
Thus, when they saw this figure flying through the air, they couldn’t help but open their mouths wide, filled with disbelief.
"An... an Immortal?"
Captain ng rubbed his eyes vigorously and pinched himself several tis.
After the series of small actions, it fully confird that everything he saw was real and not a dream.
At this mont, he felt his entire worldview had collapsed.
In contrast, Group Leader Qi had an expression of delight on his face.
"Finally t this alchemy expert, Xiao Yan!"
"If I could persuade him to join the Religious Affairs Bureau, then who else could be the future Director?"
As Group Leader Qi thought about it, he beca more and more excited.
He was eager to rush to Xiao Yan’s side, using his eloquence to persuade him effortlessly!
"Old Daoist, long ti no see!"
The second persona Lu Heng assud, "Xiao Yan," slowly descended from the sky, landing in front of the crowd.
"You...you..."
When Group Leader Qi saw Xiao Yan’s appearance, he was montarily stunned.
Xiao Yan was dressed in modern clothing, with even the tags on his clothes still attached.
Clearly, this Senior Xiao had been mingling in society for so ti.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have put together such an outfit.
More importantly, the white mask on Xiao Yan’s face looked very familiar.
But for the mont, Qi couldn’t rember where he had seen it before.
"Leader, the mask he’s wearing is the sa as the Fla Man’s that suddenly appeared in the Yan Family cetery that night!"
At this mont, a team mber imdiately stepped forward to whisper in Group Leader Qi’s ear.
"That’s great!"
Upon hearing this, Group Leader Qi was nearly jumping for joy.
The primary goal of this ergency response team assembled by the Religious Affairs Bureau was to eliminate the vampire-like zombie that had suddenly appeared.
Once the vampire-like zombie appeared before the public, it would surely cause societal unrest.
So the current Director had tasked Group Leader Qi with doing everything possible to eliminate the vampire-like zombie.
For this, both the military and the police would fully support this operation.
Of course, capturing it alive would be even better.
Besides eliminating the vampire-like zombie, the second task was to investigate the Fla Man’s situation.
The Fla Man was the second extraordinary cultivator to appear after Zhenyuan.
They needed to understand the Fla Man just as they did Zhenyuan and ensure he didn’t pose any threat to society...
Group Leader Qi accepted these tasks with confidence.
In his view, could vampire-like zombies or cultivators stand up to modern firearms?
A few artillery shells would blow them to pieces, let alone the vampire-like zombie, even the Silver Armor Corpse or Golden Armor Corpse would be shattered.
But what he didn’t anticipate was how quickly reality would contradict him.
When he led his team to Taiping Town, the vampire-like zombie had already vanished.
No matter how hard they investigated, they couldn’t find a trace of it.
The sa disappearance happened with the Fla Man.
At once, Group Leader Qi and the others were dumbfounded.
If the vampire-like zombie can’t be found, how can it be eliminated?
If the Fla Man can’t be found, how can they understand him?
Feeling helpless, Group Leader Qi pinned his last hope on Zhenyuan.
Old Man Song’s report had emphasized Zhenyuan’s fortune-telling abilities.
It was said that as long as Zhenyuan desired, he could ascertain anyone’s past and future.
This ability was unbelievably powerful!
For this reason, Group Leader Qi had watched many of Zhenyuan’s live broadcasts.
He was greatly amazed by the miraculous fortune-telling abilities.
So, he wanted to et Zhenyuan, hoping to use his all-seeing fortune-telling skills to find the whereabouts of the vampire-like zombie and the Fla Man.
But, alas, things didn’t go as planned!
After days of toil, he finally t Zhenyuan.
But his plans didn’t go as expected.
Even soone as strong as Zhenyuan couldn’t deduce the location of the vampire-like zombie.
Just when he was filled with despair, thinking he’d never find the vampire-like zombie or the Fla Man, surprise ca unexpectedly!
The Xiao Yan before him was most likely the Fla Man who had suddenly appeared that night, saving Yan Ya and the others.
And that night, the Fla Man had chased after the vampire-like zombie.
This ant that Xiao Yan might know the whereabouts of the vampire-like zombie...
"Searched for it with no result, and found it without effort!"
With that thought, Group Leader Qi’s face bead with a smile, nearly breaking into song.
