36: Chapter 36 Arriving in jail on the very first day of my rebirth? This isn't how the script works!

The special agents acted with crisp efficiency, hoisting the limp Chen Beixuan up by his left and right sides and directly winching him onto the helicopter via a cable.

The entire process took no more than thirty seconds.

It wasn't until the pitch-black armed helicopter vanished into the skyline that the piercing school alarm finally arrived, late as it was.

"Woo—woo—"

The teaching building seemed to have exploded into chaos.

Countless students poured out of their classrooms, crowding the corridors and windows, stretching their necks to look toward the rooftop where the upheaval had just occurred.

"Wha... what was that just now? Are they filming a movie?"

"What movie! That was a real helicopter! And fully armed Special Police! I saw it clearly!"

"Who was the one taken away? It looks like that gloomy guy from Class 7, Chen Beixuan?"

"That's him! Damn, what did he do? Drug trafficking or murder? This is way too big a scene!"

Discussions and exclamations rose and fell.

On the rooftop, Su Wanqing and Teacher Wang, who had been escorted down by the special agents, were still trembling at the knees.

Especially Su Wanqing; she covered her mouth, and on that pretty little face, there was no longer a shred of worship or adoration for the "domineering powerhouse," only the fear of having survived a disaster.

She had seen Chen Beixuan's twisted face with her own eyes and heard his declaration that he wanted to kill.

She had also seen that blue electric net descend from the sky with her own eyes, shocking the arrogant Chen Beixuan until he foamed at the mouth and convulsed all over.

"Oh my god..." Her voice trembled as she muttered to the classmate beside her, "He really is a madman. Thank goodness... thank goodness the police officers came quickly."

At this moment, any talk of Rebirth of an Immortal Venerable or domineering aura was, in the girl's simple worldview, collectively defined as "mental illness requiring electric shock therapy."

A specially modified prisoner transport vehicle was speeding through the traffic of Jianghai City.

The inside of the vehicle compartment had no windows and was pitch black.

Chen Beixuan finally caught his breath after that devastating electric shock.

He was firmly fixed to a metal chair, his hands and feet locked, with that humiliating gag still stuffed in his mouth.

He immediately attempted to mobilize his Divine Sense.

This was his last trump card.

As long as his Divine Sense could communicate with the outside world and draw in a sliver of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, he would have a chance to break free from his restraints.

However, the moment his Divine Sense left his body, it felt like it had collided with an invisible wall.

No, it wasn't a wall.

He "saw" that the inner walls of this prison vehicle were densely etched with a type of rune he had never seen before.

Those runes were composed of countless circuits thinner than a strand of hair, forming complex geometric patterns that flickered with a faint blue light.

They acted like a giant black hole, swallowing every bit of Divine Sense power he released until nothing was left.

"This is... a Formation? No, what is this?!"

A monstrous storm surged in Chen Beixuan's heart.

This kind of technology that acted solely on the level of Divine Sense and could completely isolate Spiritual Qi was unheard of, not just five hundred years ago on Earth, but even in the great cultivation worlds he had conquered!

Fear, a long-lost fear he had almost forgotten, rose from the bottom of his heart once again.

He began to struggle frantically.

"Mmph! Mmph!"

Gu Changan, sitting opposite him, was lowering his head, his fingers swiping rapidly across his phone screen, which displayed colorful blocks and explosion effects.

Hearing the movement across from him, he didn't even lift his head.

The special agent beside him understood, reaching out to take the gag out of Chen Beixuan's mouth.

"Haa... haa..."

Chen Beixuan breathed the air greedily, his chest heaving violently.

He glared at Gu Changan with bloodshot eyes and roared, "Let me go! Do you know who I am?!"

"I am Immortal Venerable Beixuan! An expert at the Undergoing Tribulation stage! A being you Mortals need to look up to!"

He tried to use words to regain a shred of dignity and conduct a final negotiation.

"Just give me three years! No! One year! As long as you give me one year, I can return to my Peak! By then, I can lead your entire Huaxia, everyone cultivating, everyone like a Dragon!"

"I can give you endless Spirit Stones! I can give you the most top-tier Cultivation Technique! I can even take you to conquer the stars and the sea!"

He threw out what he considered the most tempting chips.

In his view, the rulers of the Mortal world were nothing more than seekers of greater power and longer lifespans.

And these were things he could provide.

However, even after he passionately painted such a grand picture, the young man opposite didn't even lift an eyelid, remaining focused on his phone screen.

"Triple Kill!"

A crisp game sound effect rang out.

Gu Changan finally put down his phone; the game seemed to be over.

He raised his head, his eyes as calm as an ancient well, looking quietly at Chen Beixuan as if looking at a noisy fool.

"Everyone like a Dragon, forget it."

Gu Changan's voice was very calm.

"Right now, you are a public enemy."

He leaned back against the seat, changing to a comfortable posture.

"Also, don't paint these pie-in-the-sky pictures for us. We don't really need what you're talking about."

Gu Changan picked up a document from the side and opened it.

"One year ago, the country already conquered controlled nuclear fusion technology, and the energy problem is basically solved."

"Three months ago, the Chinese Academy of Sciences, in conjunction with the Bureau of Anomalies, preliminarily mastered the principles of basic Spiritual Qi purification and application. The first generation of Spiritual Energy shields and Spiritual Energy rifles have already been issued to troops in small batches."

"As for the top-tier Cultivation Technique you mentioned..."

Gu Changan pulled a piece of paper from the file and waved it in front of Chen Beixuan.

"《Ancient Qi Refining Technique: Improved Version》. It has now been adapted into the Ninth Set of National Radio Gymnastics, and will be promoted in primary and secondary schools across the country starting next semester."

Chen Beixuan's pupils shrank to the size of needle points.

His knowledge, experience, and trump cards, which he was so proud of, became worthless in the face of the other party's understated words.

It had even been reduced to radio gymnastics for primary and middle school students?

How absurd! How ironic!

"Furthermore," Gu Changan put down the document and leaned forward slightly, an invisible pressure instantly shrouding the entire vehicle.

His gaze became as sharp as a knife.

"The most important point."

"A personality like yours, which threatens to make rivers of blood flow at every turn and thinks about killing entire families and wiping out entire clans, is in itself the greatest factor of social instability."

"If someone like you were allowed to develop, it would be a catastrophe for the entire human civilization."

"Therefore, you aren't going anywhere."

As soon as he finished speaking.

[Ding! Detected that the Host has successfully suppressed the Luck of the "Rebirth" Destiny Child and stripped away his core settings.]

[Law enforcement action rating: S-rank.]

[Merit points obtained: 20,000.]

[Reward: Elementary Spiritual Root Artificial Technology (Experimental Version).]

[Note: This technology can use bioengineering means to optimize the ordinary human body at the genetic level, giving it a 3% chance of generating an inferior Spiritual Root, possessing basic Spiritual Qi sensing capabilities.]

Gu Changan's eyebrows twitched imperceptibly.

At this moment, the prisoner transport vehicle jerked and came to a stop.

The thick vehicle doors slid open to the sides, and blinding light shone in.

Chen Beixuan squinted his eyes instinctively.

[National Bureau of Abnormal Affairs]

Gu Changan stood up, straightened his trench coat, and stepped out of the vehicle.

He turned around, made a polite "please" gesture toward the dispirited Chen Beixuan in the vehicle, and a cold arc curled at the corner of his mouth.

"Welcome to your new home—the Abnormal Creature Detention Center."

"Number 9528, Chen Beixuan."

"I hope that inside, you can study the 《Criminal Law》 well and turn over a new leaf."
