125: Chapter 125 Jiang's Secret

"Damn, what's going on? I got killed again?"

Su Fan was completely speechless.

He looked back and saw clearly that the person was indeed Elder Xiao, Xiao Tianheng.

In other words, Commissioner Jiang's words were true; Xiao Tianheng really had suffered from Qi Deviation.

Xiao Tianheng's Primordial Spirit could not consume the Black Flame Demon King's Primordial Spirit, and it was even possible that his body had been taken over by the Black Flame Demon King's Primordial Spirit through Possession...

Otherwise, how could one explain that Black Flame Ribbon?

Sigh, it seems I can't go to the wastewater plant to meet this Commissioner Jiang tomorrow...

But if I do that, will I offend Commissioner Jiang?

If I go to meet Commissioner Jiang, and before Xiao Tianheng suddenly attacks, I seize the opportunity to hide behind Commissioner Jiang, would I be okay?

It's hard to say...

Although Commissioner Jiang is also at the Middle Stage of the Nascent Soul Stage, he might not be able to defeat the Qi-deviated Xiao Tianheng...

It seems this appointment definitely cannot be kept, even if it means offending Commissioner Jiang.

Right, when Xiao Tianheng invited him to the mysterious villa, he was normal. Xiao Tianheng's sudden loss of control, or being subjected to Possession, happened after he finished talking with him...

So what if I go to warn Elder Xiao about this...

It seems useless; he has already suffered from Qi Deviation, and Possession is inevitable.

If things go wrong, Elder Xiao might kill him to silence him because he discovered this secret.

Sigh, this crisis is not easy to solve at all...

"Better choose the rewards first..."

Su Fan gazed at the simulator screen to see what the rewards were this time.

This real-life simulation had no rating and no guaranteed rewards, only extra rewards.

【Extra Rewards: Host, please choose one from the following three options. The reward will be issued after selection.】

Reward 1: The Cultivation Technique practiced by Xiao Tianheng.

Reward 2: Commissioner Jiang's secret.

Reward 3: The identity information and location of the mysterious caller who made the threat.

Looking at these three rewards, Su Fan started to think.

The Cultivation Technique practiced by Xiao Tianheng relies on consuming and refining others' Primordial Spirits to strengthen oneself. It looks very powerful, but it is an evil technique. Even a Nascent Soul Stage expert suffered from Qi Deviation practicing it. Such a Cultivation Technique is a double-edged sword; if not controlled well, it is easy to die an unnatural death.

To him, it had absolutely no appeal.

"Commissioner Jiang's secret? What secret does Commissioner Jiang have?"

Su Fan put this reward option aside for now.

Looking at the third reward, he ruled it out immediately.

This person is making threats behind the scenes, so his strength must be inferior to his.

This person is easy to deal with; just arrange for the telecommunications company to retrieve his GPS location. If he is in the Ninth Safe Zone, just arrest him. If he is in another Safe Zone, just let the Justice Bureau Cultivators of that Safe Zone arrest him.

So, he definitely wouldn't choose this reward.

Then he only had to choose Commissioner Jiang's secret.

【Regarding "Commissioner Jiang's secret", text and video data are being transmitted.】

【Transmission complete. Click the bottom right corner to view.】

【Reward issued.】

【simulator is cooling down. Cooldown time is 24 hours. Happiness energy is sufficient; simulation can be performed again in one day.】

Su Fan clicked the bottom right corner of the simulator. Surprisingly, there was still a file of text and video data regarding Witch Lilith that he hadn't checked yet, but he ignored it for now and decided to look at Commissioner Jiang's secret first...

He opened the text data.

After reading it, he was completely stunned.

Then, he opened the video data and finished watching it.

He was so shocked that he almost couldn't breathe...

This is fucking terrifying!

It turns out that this Commissioner Jiang has even bigger problems than Xiao Tianheng!

Three years ago, the first year of Spiritual Qi recovery, the State Ruler dispatched Jiang Qijun to the Ninth Safe Zone to serve as a fixed commissioner of the Emergency Committee...

Who knew...

This real Jiang Qijun was killed on the way!

And the person who killed him is this current Commissioner Jiang!

The key is that for these three years, Commissioner Jiang has been hiding it very well.

Not a single person saw through his fake identity!

Even Elder Xiao and Elder Wang have never suspected him...

This secret is too terrifying!

No wonder in the simulation, this Commissioner Jiang was unwilling to report Xiao Tianheng's Qi Deviation to the Ministry of State Security. It turns out he was worried it would attract the Ministry of State Security's attention to him.

Thinking of this, Su Fan felt a bit terrified upon deeper reflection and couldn't help but shiver...

"Su-su... what's wrong with you?"

Seeming to sense Su Fan's abnormality, Qin Xiaoxiao, who was sleeping beside him, asked in a murmur, thinking he had suddenly had a nightmare.

She hugged him tightly, warming him with her body. "Su-su... I will be good to you for the rest of my life. Don't be afraid because you don't have family. I will love you well... Su-su... don't be afraid..."

Su Fan cupped her face. "Xiaoxiao, I'm fine, go to sleep properly..."

"Mm... I want to keep hugging you while I sleep."

"Stop fussing... it's simply not possible. Sleep properly, don't hug me."

"Su-su... I love you so much, I just want to hug you..."

"..."

After finally coaxing Qin Xiaoxiao to sleep, Su Fan continued to think about the two matters: Commissioner Jiang being an imposter and Xiao Tianheng being about to be subjected to Possession due to Qi Deviation.

He thought to himself that he must quickly come up with a solution.

Otherwise, not only would his own life be in danger, but the lives of the 13 million people in the entire Ninth Safe Zone would also be threatened. Once a Nascent Soul Stage expert goes mad and starts a massacre, the destructive power is immeasurable.

The only ones left who can deal with a Nascent Soul Stage expert are Elder Wang, Xiao Tianyong, and those Heaven-Patrolling Experts guarding the city's protective barrier...

Should he go and ask those people to help solve it?

It is better to rely on oneself than on others.

Su Fan pondered and pondered, when suddenly a flash of inspiration appeared in his mind, and he thought of a risky move...

...

The next day.

After Qin Lulu took him to the meeting, Elder Xiao indeed invited him to the mysterious villa for a chat. The words he said were exactly the same as in the simulation; the subtext was to win him over and sideline Commissioner Jiang.

In order not to cause a butterfly effect, Su Fan repeated the words spoken in the simulation.

After leaving the mysterious villa, he returned to the Justice Bureau.

As expected, he received a call from the threatener. Su Fan responded just as he did in the simulation, but at the same time, he had the telecommunications company use GPS tracking to find the threatener. Unexpectedly, he was actually in the Ninth Safe Zone. The Justice Bureau immediately dispatched, and in less than twenty minutes, they caught the person.

Su Fan had actually met this person before; it was the person who sold him the Storage Pouch in the Underground Black Market, named Cheng Tianba. Because he owed gambling debts and couldn't pay them back, he wanted to extort some money through this method of threats.

During the process of the Justice Bureau catching the person, Su Fan also received a call from Commissioner Jiang.

He also agreed to meet at eight in the evening.

However, when it was eight in the evening, he was late.

He called Commissioner Jiang, saying that something had come up and to wait a little while, and he would come soon.

In fact, he was hiding in a place far away, using binoculars to observe the situation there to see if Xiao Tianheng would appear there...

After a while, the exciting moment arrived.

Xiao Tianheng indeed appeared there!!

In other words, Xiao Tianheng's goal was only Commissioner Jiang, not him...

Seeing this scene, Su Fan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
