Chapter 93 – The New Administrator

“Three days apart, and I should look at you with new eyes!”

At the dining table, Xia He looked Qin Yang up and down, saying incredulously, “It’s only been a few days since we last met, and you’ve actually started pursuing Li Zixuan!? And succeeded!?”

“Stop talking nonsense, it wouldn’t be good if someone heard…” Qin Yang waved his hand dismissively, “…it would damage the Police Inspector’s image.”

As soon as these words were spoken.

Xia He, who had been grinning just moments before, suddenly changed his expression, as if remembering something. He quickly raised both hands to cover his mouth, not daring to make another sound.

After all.

Li Zixuan was now about to enter the Innate Realm, with limitless prospects ahead.

A genius like her had long been on the recruitment lists of various factions. Even the leadership at the Star Martial Police Department headquarters valued her highly and had already included her in their talent roster.

As for himself, just a newly recruited junior officer…

If this matter left a bad impression on Li Zixuan…

What if it ruined the Police Inspector’s talent recruitment plan?

The consequences were unimaginable!

“I didn’t say anything, Old Qin.”

Thinking this, Xia He lightly slapped his own cheek and looked around fearfully.

“Alright, I didn’t hear anything either,”

Qin Yang shook his head with a light laugh, standing up to clean the lunch boxes on the table. “It’s almost time, you should hurry off on patrol. I need to get to work too.”

“Yeah.”

Xia He stood up as well, folding his lunch box, then walked toward the police motorcycle.

“Remember to call me if anything comes up, Old Qin. Just a phone call away.”

“Got it.”

Qin Yang nodded, watching Xia He leave, then glanced in the direction Li Zixuan had departed, equally puzzled.

Strange.

What’s going on with that girl today?

Why did she suddenly seek me out?

Meanwhile.

Xiaobai was still lying on the nearby chair, sticking out her pink little tongue, soft belly turned upward, peacefully pretending to sleep.

As if nothing had happened…

A moment later.

Qin Yang thought back to earlier events but, finding no clues, temporarily set the matter aside.

He would wait until he had some leads before continuing to pursue the truth.

Besides, with Li Zixuan’s somewhat foolish personality… cold on the outside but simple-minded on the inside, what threat could she possibly pose to him?

With this thought,

Qin Yang finally relaxed, pulling out his phone to check the time.

There were still five minutes left before work started.

He only believed in leaving work early…

Naturally not in starting work early.

“Since there’s still time, I’ll continue deciphering the Formation Dao Alchemy Scripture.”

Thinking this, Qin Yang held Xiaobai in his arms, set an alarm on his phone, then leaned back in his chair and sank his consciousness into the martial space.

He focused his mind, feeling the midday breeze gently blowing.

The next moment.

Mysterious array formations unfolded layer upon layer in his mind, while the startling melodies of alchemy songs echoed in his ears.

Ancient and profound Dao rhythms lingered, swirling endlessly.

Qin Yang hummed a cheerful tune, basking in the warm sunlight while feeling his knowledge continuously advance, comfortably “AFK leveling” with a contented expression.

Sitting still while traveling eighty thousand li a day.

Buzz buzz buzz!

Vast amounts of knowledge integrated.

Qin Yang maintained emptiness and stillness, like an old monk in deep meditation, peacefully enjoying the refinement of his knowledge.

“Ah, it’s just a shame I can’t comprehend the Fragment of Wood Law.”

Qin Yang sighed helplessly.

But there was no helping it.

The Fragment of Wood Law was far too profound.

Once brought into the external world, it would inevitably cause strange phenomena and changes.If I were to take out the Fragment of Wood Law now, I’m afraid every flower in the entire Library would bloom, filling the garden with springtime vitality, and grass would sprout from the tile crevices…

Tsk, that scene would be too beautiful.

I truly dare not imagine how absurd it would be.

If the Curator were to see it, he’d probably explode on the spot, dig three feet into the ground, and mobilize the entire Library staff to search for the source of the anomaly!

“This won’t do.”

Thinking this, Qin Yang shook his head and heard his Phone vibrating on the table.

The lunch break passed in the blink of an eye.

………………..

Afternoon.

Qin Yang stood at the entrance clocking in, about to head to his post, when he suddenly saw the Manager walking toward him with a personnel transfer form in hand.

“Come, Qin Yang, follow me for a moment.”

The Manager approached Qin Yang, made a checkmark on the form, and said, “Xia He’s vacant position has been filled. The new guy is inexperienced and needs you to show him the ropes.”

“Alright.”

Qin Yang nodded lightly and quietly followed behind the Manager, feeling somewhat relieved.

After a few days, it was about time the Manager found a replacement.

However.

I’m getting double the pay while slacking off twice as much.

Not a bad deal at all!

The two walked in single file through the corridor and soon arrived at the Library’s HR office.

Inside the quiet office sat a young man who appeared somewhat timid, nervously clutching his trousers with his head bowed. He looked slender and gentle, with delicate features.

“This is the new probationary staff member, Li Qing. Get to know each other.”

With that, the Manager turned to Qin Yang and introduced, “This is Qin Yang, who’ll be guiding you. He’ll show you around later.”

As soon as he finished speaking.

Li Qing quickly stood up from his seat, looked at Qin Yang, and said, “Hello, Brother Qin.”

“No need for formalities, just call me Qin Yang. We’re colleagues now.”

Qin Yang waved his hand dismissively while observing Li Qing.

Suddenly, he noticed something unusual.

At this moment.

Li Qing’s aura was completely concealed, with no trace of Star Power leaking out. He appeared entirely ordinary, his facial features hazy and elusive, as if he were an unfathomable presence.

“Huh? A concealment artifact?”

“Playing the pig to eat the tiger with me?”

Qin Yang was inwardly surprised but maintained a calm expression as he chatted with Li Qing, all while secretly releasing a wisp of spiritual energy.

The next moment.

An imperceptible strand of spiritual energy left his body, quietly enveloping Li Qing, seeking any gaps in the concealment technique—leaving no stone unturned.

Soon after.

Li Qing’s true strength unfolded in Qin Yang’s mind.

His Star Power was condensed, already showing signs of celestial resonance…

He was at the Acquired Realm’s ninth level!

“Interesting.”

Qin Yang was inwardly astonished. This guy’s strength was on par with Li Zixuan’s, and his future prospects were equally limitless.

Just then, the Manager, seeing that they had exchanged enough pleasantries, brought out a contract and a pen, placing them on the desk before saying slowly, “Here, Li Qing, sign this employment agreement. Qin Yang will take you under his wing afterward.”

“Okay.”

Li Qing nodded softly, hurried to the desk, and signed his name as instructed by the Manager. His slender frame trembled slightly, seemingly excited about starting the job.

Noticing this, the Manager smiled and said, “Work hard. Many people would kill for this job, and you’ve lucked out.”

“Yes, thank you, Manager.”

Li Qing nodded. “I’ll do my best.”

Meanwhile, Qin Yang watched with growing curiosity.Just as he was speculating about the purpose of this person’s visit to the Library,

the system’s voice suddenly rang out…

“Ding, detection of Array Grandmaster Li Qinghe’s presence. Host, please evacuate immediately to avoid accidentally entering an Array Formation!”
