Chapter 53: Chapter 53 Dream (Please Favorite)
"Hmm? Jing Xia? Is that her?"
Fang Xing was startled by Jing Xia’s sudden appearance, her hand resting on Gu Yun’s shoulder.
But a weight seemed to finally lift from his heart.
’That woman really is from the Prevention and Control Bureau, never forgetting to bring her dog everywhere...’
Watching the bully dog sitting next to Jing Xia, he couldn’t help but complain inwardly.
"Gu Yun is our intern from the Faith Theory Department; it has nothing to do with your Action Department... And she’s an intern sent by the school authorities, so it’s impossible for her to join your department."
Bai Ziling’s face was cold, seemingly having a grudge against Jing Xia.
"I was just asking... After all, I saw flames in her eyes. Someone with such talent would fit well in our Action Department, perfect for replacing some useless people!"
Jing Xia admitted nonchalantly, holding a beverage in her hand, "And you, Fang Xing, are you interested in interning with our department?"
Although she was an older woman, her smile more resembled a fox’s.
"Sorry, but this is a school-specified internship program!"
Fang Xing quickly shook his head; he would be insane to join the Action Department.
"That’s a real pity then."
Jing Xia waved her hand, "If you change your mind, you are welcome to find me at any time."
"Let’s go."
Bai Ziling didn’t say much more, leading Fang Xing and Gu Yun into the elevator.
Once the silvery liquid metal completely covered everything, Fang Xing couldn’t tell if they were ascending or descending.
"Do you know that woman?"
Bai Ziling suddenly turned around, staring at Fang Xing.
"I often bump into her during morning exercise; she seems to live around the school," Fang Xing stated honestly.
"Hmm, do not provoke that woman. She likes to brutally squeeze her subordinates and verbally abuse them..." Bai Ziling sneered, "The number of her team members transferred to logistics support or treated at the wellness center is the highest. You understand what that means."
"Of course!"
Fang Xing nodded promptly.
Before he knew it, a metallic wall in front opened to reveal a large, flat area.
Many employees of the Faith Theory Department, wearing work badges, were bustling about.
"First, I’ll send you a map. The only area you can move around in is the green zone... The library, storage room, and observation room are all red zones, off-limits."
Bai Ziling sent over a map, her expression serious, "Your job today is to clean the green zone and manage the water dispensers..."
’Does this place even need cleaning?’
Fang Xing looked at the pristine floor, strongly suspecting that the silvery metal possessed a ’self-cleaning’ ability.
He even thought that the entire building could be a metal lifeform!
’So, we’re just blatantly here to slack off, huh?’
"Any questions?" Bai Ling seemed to notice Fang Xing’s gaze and adjusted her glasses.
"How much is our daily wage?" Fang Xing asked.
"Two thousand an hour, with additional benefits and bonuses," Bai Ziling replied.
"Then, I have no further questions."
Fang Xing nodded, walked to the water dispenser, and sat down next to it.
"Very well."
A faint smile appeared on Bai Ziling’s face, "Xiao Yun, you stay here. If you have any issues, come find me..."
After Bai Ziling left, Gu Yun’s expression suddenly darkened as she watched her walk away.
"I thought they’d at least let me touch upon something..."
Gu Yun sat next to Fang Xing, her eyes losing focus.
Fang Xing knew that her agreement to this internship was largely to get closer to her father’s work environment and to learn more... And then—to take revenge!
If she could choose at will, she would have joined Jing Xia’s Action Department.
Unfortunately... that was impossible!
"Here, have some water."
Without any intent to console, Fang Xing poured a glass of water for Gu Yun and one for himself.
Just after taking a sip, he felt something was off, "Does this water contain some sort of spiritual medicine? No... there’s a different effect, one that calms the mind..."
"For members of the Faith Theory Department, mental stability is the most crucial indicator, and it’s tested daily..."
Gu Yun seemed to know more, draining the water in her cup: "For us who cultivate A-rank Martial Arts, this purified water also has a certain effect, consider it a work perk..."
’Hmm, but it’s nothing compared to the Calming Pill...’
Fang Xing silently compared and concluded in his mind.
...
The sun set in the west.
"Goodbye!"
He left the Prevention and Control Bureau, bade farewell to Gu Yun, and prepared to walk home as part of his exercise routine.
’The Prevention and Control Bureau is definitely on high alert internally; trying to do something sneaky is just a fool’s dream and would only expose myself...’
As for taking advantage from the Faith Theory Department?
After a whole day of observation, Fang Xing scoffed at the idea.
The materials on the Evil God he was interested in seeing, and even the suspected scriptures of the Evil God, were all stored in specialized rooms, awaiting examination and review by members of the Faith Theory Department.
For highly confidential cult scriptures, several researchers need to apply and obtain approval from the deputy director or director before reading and studying them, and all research must be done in a special protective chamber, with not a single sheet of paper allowed out.
’After so many years of operation, the Faith Theory Department is filled with surveillance. Even their own people must be tested for mental state and contamination upon exit... How could they leave a loophole for me to exploit? If there is one... it is definitely a trap!’
"Phew, at least I got to see it all and I know Jing Xia’s identity, plus the paycheck is pretty decent... Huh?"
Fang Xing suddenly looked up, focusing only on the orange-red sky: "Why do I vaguely feel like I’m being spied on?"
Thinking this, he quickly hastened his steps and disappeared at the end of the street.
...
Minutes later, a figure emerged from the shadows with a hoarse voice: "As expected of a talent who has just entered A-level Martial Arts, his spiritual power is beginning to undergo a slight qualitative change, and we can’t get too close to observe... This Martial Artist’s intuition is troublesome."
The person was entirely shrouded in a black cloak, but strangely, sparks flew from the surrounding surveillance cameras as if they were malfunctioning.
Following the cloaked figure were two students.
One had the build of a bodybuilder, looking at Fang Xing’s retreating figure with a hint of complexity in his eyes—it was Liu Wei.
The other was not Bai Lianyi, but Liu Wei recognized him; he was a classmate from Yutalent Middle School with delicate features, known as ’Guo Peipei.’
At that moment, Guo Peipei turned to Liu Wei: "I heard this guy is your good friend? He’s impressive now, not only becoming Teacher Xia Long’s pet but also mixing into the Prevention and Control Bureau."
"If needed, I can deal with him," Liu Wei replied in a lowered voice.
"It’s simple to deal with him, but there’s no benefit to us... This Fang Xing, his value is getting higher and higher."
The cloaked figure let out a strange laugh: "I hope he can worship our Lord and become our Lord’s power within the Prevention and Control Bureau."
"That might be difficult..." Liu Wei frowned, normal people wouldn’t willingly get involved with cult followers.
"My lord, please let me take action!"
Guo Peipei smiled: "The supernatural ability I’ve acquired is the ’Dream Entry Skill,’ perfect for corrupting and polluting this person in his dreams, ensuring it goes undetected by gods and ghosts..."
"Dream Entry Skill? That could work..."
The cloaked messenger pondered for a moment, then said, "You take action, but as your ability level isn’t high, you can’t enter dreams from a distance... Getting close is somewhat risky, but I’ll dispatch two ’Divine Generals’ to protect you..."
"Thank you, my lord!"
Guo Peipei’s eyes shone brightly.
...
At night, all was still.
Fang Xing had once again practiced the Hidden Tiger Stance, played a few rounds of video games, and ordered late-night takeout.
After a satisfying meal and drink, he immediately fell asleep.
At present, his Realm was low, and he could not replace sleep with meditative practices like sitting or standing meditation; he still slept very soundly every night.
But this night seemed a bit different.
The fog was hazy.
The whole residential area seemed covered in a layer of mist.
Within the mist, there were sounds like numerous insects wriggling and low humming, rustling like the mumbling songs made by countless people’s whispering chants.
"What’s going on?"
Fang Xing got up and looked out the window, becoming suddenly frozen.
He saw... the entire residential area appeared shattered, with countless broken walls and ruins defying gravity, each hovering in midair.
And in the distance, there seemed to be an indistinct existence.
It was composed of countless orbs of light, vaguely taking the shape of a gate.
But upon closer inspection, it felt not like a gate but layers upon layers of dimensions, with each colorful light orb seemingly carrying the ultimate truth of worlds and universe.
Just one glance could captivate one’s gaze.
Fang Xing felt a severe pain in his head, as if it were about to explode.
Unknown knowledge and information were like numerous red-hot iron spikes attempting to pierce into his brain...
"This is... an Outer Realm Evil God? No... no, that’s not right; if it were real, I would be long dead, not even capable of thinking... This is a fake, an imitation!"
The next moment, Fang Xing’s forehead veins bulged, and his expression turned fierce and ghostly.
"Even if it’s a Ghost God, I shall slay it with one strike!"
"Slay the Ghost God!"
With his hand as a saber, he fiercely slashed towards the peculiar light gate.
Ghost God Saber—Slay the Ghost God!
A shocking arc of saber light shot to the sky, sweeping across miles, and actually directly scattered that strange gate...
The mist dissipated, and there seemed to be a woman’s scream faintly accompanying it.
"Ah!"
Inside the bedroom.
Fang Xing suddenly sat up, his right hand seizing the Mo Wen Sword.
Outside the window, the night breeze was cool, with a few night cats in heat crying like wailing babies, the community quiet and peaceful as usual.
"A dream?"
His face flashed with confusion: "The Gate of Nothingness? Why would I dream of such a thing out of the blue? No... that’s not right, someone’s plotting against me! It’s the cultists!"
As for the Outer Realm Evil God, it was of course just the other side’s imagination, not even a projection or aura of the entity itself.
The reason was simple; even cult followers, if lacking in strength, would see the true face of the Evil God and fall into utter madness or even death!
"Who have I angered?"
Fang Xing roared lowly, his heart filled with rage.
It was the same in the market, the same on Chuying Star!
Despite being cautious and unassuming, minding his own business and just wanting to grow, why were there always people scheming against him?
Then, as if realizing something, he reached out and grabbed a Talisman that appeared in his hand—it was the ’Seeking Qi Talisman!’
"That woman in the dream has left her Qi behind, she must still be nearby..."
Fang Xing gripped the Mo Wen Sword tightly, his expression dark...
