Chapter 187: Chapter 185: Who Designed These Big Shorts

As his words fell, an image of Yun Qi appeared on the pale blue screen.

"Huh? This little girl clearly has a human appearance, no matter how you categorize it, she should be counted as one of our Human Clan’s strengths." A man wearing a crane robe, exuding an elegant and ethereal air, smiled lightly from the seat at the front, possessing quite the Immortal demeanor.

In the human world, those who reach the highest level of cultivation are collectively referred to as Immortals; they belong to both the Human Clan and the Divine Clan.

However, Gods are aloof and ascetic, while Immortals care about the sufferings of the human world and can perceive human joys, anger, and sorrow, thus they prefer to classify themselves as humans.

"This ’Banished Immortal’ is as unrestrained as the legend says; how can the daughter of the ghost king still belong to your Human Clan?" Another Ghost Emperor, Shen Tu, questioned with displeasure.

Being a Ghost Emperor, he naturally did not have the hideous and sinister appearance of an ordinary ghost; in fact, he and Yu Lei both had delicate and graceful looks, like gentlemen of elegance, even a black robe couldn’t hide their charismatic charm.

"Exiled Immortal" laughed heartily, "Just joking around, why be so petty, brother from the Ghost Clan?"

"Since you all have no objections, it’s decided. After Yun Qi arrives, I’ll continue to stay in the Capital City, and she will go far to the Northwest to be responsible for the cavalry attack case this time."

Director Hu stood up and was the first to leave.

The bigwigs of the other clans, seeing that they had successfully argued, all stood up with a loud sound of pulling back chairs and stretched lazily.

Suddenly, a giant Snake Demon swayed her waist and swam over to Shen Tu, "Lord Ghost Emperor, I wonder what your opinion is on this matter?"

"This matter is to be handled by the ghost king’s daughter, you can ask her."

"I’m not talking about those cavalry, but the entire incident, how could a cavalry regiment that died over a thousand years ago suddenly revive? Since it’s a revival, there must be a purpose, a plan, it’s impossible for them to resurrect for no reason. I always feel..." The snake demon’s voice was soft and enchanting, a trait inherent to her clan, but her gaze was unexpectedly firm and profound, "A major upheaval is about to occur."

In the afternoon, Yun Qi arrived in the Capital City accompanied by Yun Qiuce, with a special staff from Bureau 49 assigned to greet them and take them directly to the headquarters of Bureau 49.

The Hai City branch is located in a shabby agency compound, quite inconspicuous, Yun Qiuce thought that this was perhaps the low-key style of Bureau 49.

Unexpectedly, upon arriving at the headquarters, it was a dazzling sight.

Looking up was a towering office building, with high sides and a slightly lower middle, forming a symmetrical, majestic feel on both sides. However, Yun Qiuce stared at it for a long time and said, "Who designed this building, why does it look like a pair of shorts?"

The person receiving them, who was also from within Bureau 49, twitched at the comment.

This distinctly modern-style building had certainly been rebuilt since Director Hu took office. After all, the previous director served three hundred years ago. It’s said that the former director was a notable figure in the Human Clan, with talent in poetry and articles maxed out, and a wild and unrestrained personality. Therefore, he designed the Bureau 49 headquarters in a blockhouse style with carved galleries and painted buildings, colorful lanterns, and the scent of wine lingering.

Every time the bigwigs from various clans came for a meeting, they always felt as if they were visiting a brothel.

Standing inside the headquarters office building now, there’s a sense of being hired by a Fortune 500 company.

Yun Qi, petite as a ball today, wore a pure white shirt with small black hearts on the sleeves, a light blue checkered bow at the collar, and her ear-length short hair had grown a bit, bundled into a bun on her head.

Her small face was pink, big eyes were lively, walking into the hall, she was simply like a little princess who didn’t partake in worldly affairs.

After the host swiped the access card, the red-brown solid wood door opened, followed by an automatic sensing glass door, and inside was the interior of Bureau 49.

Inside the spacious and bright hall, a half-human, half-snake woman dragged her snake tail elegantly across before them, followed by a man with a circle of red thread sewn around his neck floating over and greeting the colleague in reception, "Li Quan, off to pick someone up?"

The named Li Quan, clearly a human, in his twenties and looking quite energetic, nodded, "Yeah, come to mine after work."

"Got it," the man’s body didn’t move, but his head turned 180°, revealing an excited expression on his pale face, "Let’s group up online, don’t forget to carry the brother this time."

Yun Qiuce licked his lips and said, "I..."

Li Quan immediately and kindly said, "Don’t force it, if you feel faint, go ahead. Before there were new human colleagues who came to report crying and screaming, even thinking they had a mental problem and went to see a neurologist, now they’ve accepted it well, there’s nothing shameful about it."

"Oh." Yun Qiuce bit his tongue firmly, telling himself to bring honor to the Hai State Xuan Sect, and resolutely not to faint.

Isn’t it just the harmonious scene of Five Clans coexisting, what can’t a Xuan Sect disciple accept.

The headquarters building’s decoration was extremely luxurious, even more ostentatious than general Fortune 500 enterprises, with dazzling crystal chandeliers hanging overhead and even the surrounding walls gave the illusion of entering a high-class club, with the opulent and eye-catching layout and decoration.

They took the elevator up to Director Hu’s office on the top floor.

Director Hu opened the door personally, and at the moment the door opened, a long-eyed fox spirit cast a glance at Yun Qiuce.

Yun Qiuce was already in a state of heightened mental tension, suspiciously touching his nose; it’s the first time seeing Director Hu, why does it feel like his gaze isn’t friendly, he didn’t offend him after all.

Before Director Hu could speak, the famous "Banished Immortal" in human history spoke up, his voice cheerful and pleasant, "You’re the little girl Yun Qi, from this height you haven’t started school yet, have you?"

Yun Qi’s eyes lit up, "Wow, I know you, I even studied your poetry with my uncle."

Yun Qi looked at Yun Qiuce excitedly, and Yun Qiuce was completely bewildered, the half-human, half-snake could be accepted, the man with a 180° turnable head could be accepted, but this bigshot... this bigshot, why are you here too?

Shouldn’t you be in textbooks?

The bigshot squinted his eyes with interest, "Really? But my poetry is famous for ages, a unique flower in human literary history, I’m aware of that, but which one did you learn?"

Yun Qiuce instinctively wanted to cover Yun Qi’s mouth, but Yun Qi’s small milky voice was clear, swiftly blurting out:

"The sun shines on the incense burner to produce cooking smoke, Li Bai walks into a roast duck shop, saliva flows three thousand feet, touches his pocket, no money."

The bigshot was momentarily stunned, his condemning gaze skipped past Yun Qi to look at Yun Qiuce.

Yun Qiuce covered his face, was it still time to return to Hai City?

He smiled awkwardly, "Just joking, just joking."

The bigshot was dressed in a crane robe, with a sword accompanying him, indeed just as the books said, he practiced poetry, swordplay, and Taoist Skill together.

"I heard you stayed at Yuqing Temple for a few years, so we could be considered fellow students." The bigshot pointed at his Daoist robe.

He once sought the Tao at Zhongnan Mountain and lived secludedly for a period as a Taoist.

Yun Qi nodded, her innocent eyes filled with eager desire, "Mr. Bai, can you go to the Northwest with me? I want to learn poetry from you."

The bigshot straightened up, looking far away, as if recalling some past events.

"Going once is fine, Yumen Pass, Sky Mountain Snow, drums of war, jeweled horses and saddles, all have been so long ago."
