Chapter 16

~7 min read 1,283 words

Chen Hao breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

One month later.

"Flame Gale Slash!"

"Fire Barrier!"

"Fire Phoenix Roar!"

Chen Hao demonstrated the results of his one month of special training in front of Shangguan Huofeng.

Seeing this, Shangguan Huofeng nodded expressionlessly.

This month, Chen Hao's performance was too shocking.

Shangguan Huofeng was already a bit numb.

She also experienced what Shi Jian felt.

It's boring, really boring, to lead a top student—no, a genius.

This feeling had no sense of achievement at all.

Shangguan Huofeng felt that she was just a tool person.

After a month of cultivation, Chen Hao's strength progressed by leaps and bounds.

From the 1st stage of the Warrior Realm, he broke through to the 5th stage of the Warrior Realm.

This was all thanks to this secret realm being full of fire elements.

Making the cultivation of the 'Fire Phoenix Art' twice as effective with half the effort.

"Alright, the special training is over, I have nothing left to teach you."

"Now go back and report."

"Then go do missions with Wenjing."

Chen Hao returned to the Ability Bureau branch.

He found that Tian Wenjing was not there, so he went to find Bai Jie.

Chen Hao opened Bai Jie's door.

Chen Hao saw red... "Red beans grow in the southern land, in spring they sprout new branches."

Seeing little red beans, Chen Hao quickly backed out.

"Brat, stand at the door."

"If you dare to leave, I'll break your legs."

Hearing Bai Jie's voice, Chen Hao froze in place.

His brain subconsciously recalled the scene from just a moment ago.

As a result, his nose felt hot, and a warm current flowed out from his nose.

Chen Hao reached out to touch it and discovered it was actually a nosebleed.

"Holy crap, I actually got a nosebleed."

Chen Hao hurriedly took a tissue from his pocket and plugged his nostrils.

Not long after, Bai Jie walked out.

She was wearing a white dress.

Bai Jie wore a smile and walked straight to Chen Hao.

She leaned in toward Chen Hao.

Then she lowered her voice and said in a seductive tone: "Is sister's figure good-looking?"

"It's... it's good-looking!"

Chen Hao swallowed his saliva and said subconsciously.

"You really did see it."

"I..."

Bai Jie didn't seem to have any intention of pursuing it further.

"Forget it, a little brat is just a little brat."

"Looking at you, you must have just come back from Huofeng's side."

"What happened just now, consider it a reward for you, don't let it happen again!"

"Go on, go home first and catch up with your grandfather."

"He hasn't seen you for a month, he probably misses you."

"Yes."

Chen Hao left quickly.

Bai Jie watched Chen Hao's retreating back, her eyes narrowed slightly.

She subconsciously looked down and found that she couldn't see her feet.

"It seems my charm is still there!"

Before, Bai Jie was still worrying that she was getting old; now, she had regained her confidence.

Chen Hao returned to his family's funeral home.

Seeing Chen Hao return, Chen Qiang was stunned for a moment.

Then he couldn't help but kick Chen Hao's butt.

"Brat, you still know how to come back."

This month.

If it weren't for Chen Hao sending WeChat voice messages to Chen Qiang every day.

Chen Qiang would have really thought that Chen Hao had met with misfortune.

"Grandpa, these days, have there been any ability users?"

"No."

"It's strange to say, recently not only have there been no ability users, but even the corpses of ordinary people have decreased."

"These past two days, I haven't received a single order."

Hearing this, Chen Hao's brows furrowed.

When things are abnormal, there must be a demon.

According to common sense, they usually get at least one order a day.

Now that there isn't one, it means something happened.

"Grandpa, these days, don't run around."

"Yes, I know."

Chen Qiang could feel Chen Hao's change.

However, he didn't ask about it; as long as Chen Hao was healthy, that was fine.

After catching up with Chen Qiang.

Chen Hao returned to the Ability Bureau branch.

At this time, many people were gathered in the hall.

"What's the situation?"

This was the first time Chen Hao had seen such a situation.

"Chen Hao, you came just in time, join the team."

"You are under Tian Wenjing's command, listen to her arrangements later."

"Okay."

Tian Wenjing was a master at the 2nd stage of the Warrior Realm and possessed an A-grade ability—[Wind Control].

Chen Hao was at the 5th stage of the Warrior Realm; following Tian Wenjing was not a waste of his talent.

After Shi Jian finished assigning the mission, Tian Wenjing set off with Chen Hao and another guy.

"Jingjing!"

A person with fair skin, a typical young master look.

He seemed to be Tian Wenjing's sycophant; calling her "Jingjing," it was as intimate as it could get.

Chen Hao felt his goosebumps rising.

"Xu Wenbo, please have some self-respect."

"You can call me Officer Tian, or Tian Wenjing."

"You are not allowed to call me Jingjing again."

Tian Wenjing's face stiffened.

"Okay, Jingjing."

Seeing Xu Wenbo with such a thick-skinned appearance.

Like usual, Tian Wenjing would have already used a whip kick.

There was no way around it; they had to go on a mission now, so she could only let Xu Wenbo be.

On the way to the destination.

Chen Hao glanced at Xu Wenbo.

"8th stage of the Warrior Realm, C-grade [Water Flow Fist] ability, I thought he was some big shot."

Chen Hao saw through Xu Wenbo's strength at a glance and couldn't help but complain in his heart.

The three of them soon arrived at the destination.

The destination was a cemetery.

At this time, night had fallen, and a layer of mist filled the surroundings.

Whoosh!

A gust of wind blew, bringing a bit of chill.

Xu Wenbo couldn't help but shiver.

"Damn, what kind of ghost place is this, so eerie and terrifying."

"This is a cemetery, how could it not be terrifying!"

"A cemetery!"

When he first walked in, Xu Wenbo's eyes were on Tian Wenjing, so he didn't notice the situation around him.

Looking at the eerie and terrifying surroundings, Xu Wenbo couldn't help but say to Chen Hao and Tian Wenjing: "Let's go back."

"If you want to go back, you can go back, no one is stopping you."

Saying this, Tian Wenjing continued to walk inside.

Chen Hao followed closely behind.

"Hey, hey, hey, wait for me!"

As the few of them slowly went deeper.

Chen Hao discovered that the corpse energy in the surroundings was increasing.

Seeing this, he was not surprised but happy.

Chen Hao began to run the 'Corpse Cultivation' technique, absorbing the surrounding corpse energy.

"Refreshing!"

"If I had known there was so much corpse energy in the cemetery, I would have come long ago."

Tian Wenjing said to Chen Hao and Xu Wenbo: "Let's split up."

"See if there is anything abnormal."

"If you find anything, remember to call me."

Saying this, Tian Wenjing walked in one direction first.

Chen Hao chose another direction to walk in.

Seeing this, Xu Wenbo wanted to follow Tian Wenjing.

As a result, Tian Wenjing walked too fast and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

There was no way around it; Xu Wenbo could only head in the opposite direction of Chen Hao.

Chen Hao walked while absorbing corpse energy.

His body subconsciously headed toward the place with more corpse energy.

Clang!

Clang!

Clang!

Chen Hao walked for a while, and he heard the sound of a pickaxe hitting stone.
