a few days later.

In the heart of Shanghai, at the Bureau of Abnormal Events, the Superpower Crime Countermeasures Team—the interrogation room.

QQ QQ QQ...

"Come in."

Members of the countermeasures team outside pushed open the door and entered.

"Team leader! People from the Gao family in Guangdong Province have arrived."

Sitting behind the one-way glass in the interrogation room, Liu Yaowen didn't turn around to look at the person, but stared intently at Gao Chen, who was smiling like a sunny and cheerful young man in the interrogation room.

These past few days, no matter what they asked, Gao Chen answered truthfully. If he didn't know something, he said he didn't know, and he wouldn't make things up.

According to the scientists in the bureau, from a biological point of view, one-third of Gao Chen's brain has been removed, and now he is even more like someone with Down syndrome than someone with Down syndrome!

And those eerie starry eyes...

"An unknown psychic superpower user."

Regardless of whether the other party is friend or foe, a superhuman with such terrifying abilities hiding within the territory of China is a ticking time bomb!

"Team leader?"

A team member next to him asked in a low voice.

"Gao Chen's brain is completely ruined, and he's practically socially dead outside. Why would they take him back like that?"

Liu Yaowen asked without turning his head.

"No, the Gao family representative did not intend to take Gao Chen back."

"Then what are they here for? To watch this young master of the Tang family perform a game of truth or dare?"

Liu Yaowen chuckled and pointed at Gao Chen across the glass.

Given the other person's state, everything they say is the truth, and they'll do whatever you ask them to do immediately.

He is no longer a person in spirit.

"They've come seeking revenge."

At that moment, an old man's voice rang out from outside the door.

Liu Yaowen turned his head at the sound and saw the other person standing outside the door, dressed properly, saying that he was seeking revenge, but there was no anger on his face.

"Hello, Team Leader Liu."

After entering the room, the other person politely extended their hand to Liu Yaowen.

But Liu Yaowen did not answer.

"Seeking revenge? You've come to the wrong place. There are no enemies of yours in the Administration Bureau."

“But we can find it through 'him'.”

The old man calmly withdrew his hand and looked at Gao Chen across the glass, showing no regard for him as his own third young master.

Chapter Thirty-Seven: Little Jack: You think you're so great?

In fact, the Gao family has never cared about Gao Chen's life or death, whether it was sending him abroad to study, learning black magic, or even letting him work as an anime content creator on the internet.

As long as he doesn't court death by fighting with the eldest or second young master for things.

It can be said that from beginning to end, the Gao family never regarded Gao Chen as a core member of the family.

But the mess Gao Chen made this time was far too big for him to make up for with his death.

Thanks to the internet's information flow, as soon as Gao Chen got into trouble, the Gao family's reputation was immediately ruined online, and several big business deals personally handled by the eldest son of the Gao family were completely canceled.

Furthermore, the day after the incident, the second young master of the Gao family called from the Arabia Federation to mock the eldest young master and the old man of the Gao family who had sent him abroad for training.

This completely blew up the Gao family, who had been trying to maintain their reputation.

Therefore, this "revenge" operation, ostensibly to assist the official investigation, was actually aimed at restoring both face and substance for the Gao family.

'They really aren't afraid of death.'

Liu Yaowen really wanted to laugh at this.

Nouveau riche without historical background only have this much insight. If it were any other family with a long history in China, they would immediately know that they had stumbled upon a wild 'Hakiga' as soon as they saw the analysis report sent by them.

Instead of cowering and playing dead at this time, you dare to jump out and say you want revenge. If you provoke them to come knocking on your door, it will be too late to cry and beg for reconciliation!

'Fine, let the Gao family try to stir up trouble. It's their [personal action] anyway. Ideally, they'll lure out that dangerous psychic superpowered individual, then the Bureau can intervene... Either way, we're not at a disadvantage.'

With this thought in mind, Liu Yaowen stood up from his seat and nodded to the elder of the Gao family.

"If the Gao family has a way to find that mysterious psychic superpowered individual, then please do so."

As soon as the two stepped out the door, Liu Yaowen saw a Taoist priest standing at the door and bowing to him.

"May the Heavenly Venerable grant boundless blessings."

The man in the blue Taoist robe looked like a hermit, as if he had stepped out of an ancient painting.

"Team Leader Liu, let me introduce you. This is a Taoist master invited by our Gao family. His Taoist name is Qing Xuanzi."

At this moment, a smile finally appeared on the old man's face, as if he were showing off.

"Hello, Master Qingxuanzi."

Liu Yaowen returned the greeting without changing his expression, but he understood what was going on in his mind.

No wonder the Gao family dared to come seeking revenge; it turns out they spent a fortune hiring 'Haki Gao'.

But is the 'Hakigao' you invited as valuable as the Celestial Master that the director brought from the capital?

No, we cannot draw a conclusion yet.

What if the other party really is a reclusive master? Wouldn't I become the clown?

Therefore, Liu Yaowen did not show any doubt, but led the two directly to the other side of the interrogation room.

Huang Qingque, who had not been able to glean any information from Gao Chen, was sitting at the doorway, seemingly resting with her eyes closed.

"Ok?"

Sensing someone approaching, Huang Qingque immediately opened her eyes, stood up, and saluted Liu Yaowen.

"Team leader, I'm sorry, I still haven't been able to see through their true nature."

"I know, thank you for your hard work."

Liu Yaowen nodded, and then introduced the two people behind him to her.

Huang Qingque wasn't too surprised that the Gao family had come; she just hadn't expected them to be able to invite someone from the Xuanmen sect.

You should know that those people are usually not after money, but rather after their mood or personal relationships.

"You are……"

However, when Huang Qingque saw the Taoist in the green robe, she was taken aback at first, then frowned slightly and said, "Unorthodox and heretical!"

"Hehe... Isn't the layman the same? You all sacrifice your lives to specialize in divination, no wonder the Tianyan Sect Master is still in danger after being injured."

As soon as these rude words were uttered, Huang Qingque, who was opposite the Taoist, had veins bulging on her forehead and her right hand unconsciously reached for her waist pouch.

But he quickly regained his composure and his expression returned to calm.

"Trying to provoke me? Not so easy."

"The layman is quite composed."

The Taoist priest was somewhat surprised by this, then smiled calmly.

"If even a master of divination, Tianyanshi, cannot see it, how could someone like you, a practitioner of unorthodox methods, possibly find the other party?"

Huang Qingque countered with a question.

"The layperson only needs to wait here quietly for a moment."

Qing Xuanzi answered confidently, then pushed open the door to the interrogation room and gracefully sat down in front of Gao Chen.

A few minutes later.

"I... cough cough! Grandmaster, please forgive me! Grandmaster, please forgive me! This disciple shouldn't have uttered such foul language!"

After observing for a moment, Qing Xuanzi almost burst into a curse, then quickly took a deep breath to calm himself down, and couldn't help but sigh:

"This is the first time I've ever seen... such a 'pure' person in the world! Not only is it cultivated, but it's also irreversible."

Actually, he was starting to have second thoughts here.

To be able to physically 'purify' a person's brain in such a short time, such an enemy is completely beyond the reach of a 'little Taoist priest' like myself!

I originally thought that someone had stolen my soul and spirit so that I could make a fortune through some secret method, but it turns out to be something so terrifying.

But leaving like that, looking so pathetic, would be too embarrassing for me.

'Damn old man Gao, if I don't die this time, you'll have to compensate me three times the price!'

[Astral projection technique]

Then, with a try-it-out mentality, Qing Xuanzi formed a hand seal, and almost tangible blue-green gas began to emerge from his body.

The gas then solidified again, transforming into the form of Qing Xuanzi, who sat gracefully in mid-air, his ethereal appearance quite awe-inspiring.

"Unorthodox and unorthodox methods!"

Huang Qingque cursed under her breath as she watched this scene.

The next moment, the illusory Qing Xuanzi passed through the table and slowly merged into Gao Chen's body.

"Ah! Just as I thought, with all three souls and seven spirits intact, he has truly become a pure being in the physical sense... Ha! I just wonder which is purer, him or Emperor Hui of Jin in the historical records."

Qingxuanzi, whose consciousness had entered Gao Chen's spiritual platform, couldn't help but smile.

Then he made the mudra again.

“If I use divination here, I should be able to find the attacker directly by following the cause and effect. I just don’t know if my kneeling speed can outpace the superpower of that powerful person on the other side.”

Although Gao Chen had no memory of the attacker in his mind, there was still a trace of cause and effect connected to him, namely the cause and effect of being 'concealed'.

Things related to the other party have been obscured, which can also be considered one of the causes and effects.

If I use my own secret techniques, I should be able to catch up and take a look.

"Watch and leave!"

With this in mind, Qingxuanzi activated his secret technique once more.

Then he felt his consciousness being forcibly pulled by some force, and the next moment he found that his consciousness was no longer in Gao Chen's mind, but in a strange city filled with poisonous fog.

"May the ancestral master protect me..."

Faced with this unknown situation, Qingxuanzi could only pray.

A moment later, he saw a petite white-haired figure appear in the distance, then rush towards him like a ghost, leaving no time to react.

Just like a fragile mage being approached by a high-attack-speed warrior, Qingxuanzi didn't realize he had been attacked until a large gash was ripped open in his abdomen.

"...It's a man."

Before losing consciousness, he vaguely heard the other person's slightly regretful voice.

Chapter Thirty-Eight: Chen Xiao, oh Chen Xiao, how could you have fallen so low...

Consciousness returned to reality.

"Puga—!"

Qing Xuanzi suddenly coughed up blood and flew backward a distance before crashing heavily to the ground.

"Master!"

Seeing this, the elder of the Gao family could no longer pretend to be calm. He quickly pushed open the door and helped Qing Xuanzi up from the ground.

"Master, are you alright?"

Qingxuanzi did not answer immediately, but instead placed his trembling hand on the old man's shoulder and forced himself to stand up.

However, just as he was about to say something, he realized that he knew nothing at all.
