Realm of the Night God

The Sound Transmission Talisman has limitations in transmitting information and can't be used like a phone call, where you can talk for as long as you want. Therefore, when using the Sound Transmission Talisman, it's usually brief and to the point.

At this time, Deputy Captain Zhou didn't explain the situation in detail through the Sound Transmission Talisman, and there were reasons for this. It wasn't that he didn't want to explain clearly, but rather that it was difficult to convey the complexity of the situation in just a few words.

Usually, Spirit Police use their internal custom-made walkie-talkies for communication. However, considering unexpected situations, Captain Luo had prepared a batch of Sound Transmission Talismans in advance by exchanging them with other items at the Fu Sect, to be used in special circumstances.

The Administrative Bureau was preparing to take action against Bai Xue, which was no small matter for the Spirit Police. As the Deputy Captain of the Spirit Police, Deputy Captain Zhou definitely couldn't discuss this over the walkie-talkie, as it would be equivalent to broadcasting the news to the Administrative Bureau, and he would definitely not have a good outcome. Therefore, he used the Sound Transmission Talisman to remind Bai Xue to be cautious and not to return to the Spirit Police headquarters for the time being.

At this time, Yang Haoran had a thoughtful expression, and what he was thinking about wasn't when the Spirit Police had prepared the Sound Transmission Talismans. His question was, why did the Administrative Bureau want to take action against Bai Xue?

Bai Xue was a demon, and this was no secret. The Administrative Bureau not only knew about this but had also agreed to let Bai Xue join the Spirit Police team. Over the years, Bai Xue had made significant contributions, whether it was for the Spirit Police, the Administrative Bureau, or the entire Lecheng.

However, the Administrative Bureau was now taking action against Bai Xue.

It's worth noting that the current Lecheng Administrative Bureau was severely understaffed, especially when it came to powerful individuals. To strengthen the Administrative Bureau's power, they had even issued a command to recruit talented individuals from all walks of life, as long as they had the ability and were willing to serve the Administrative Bureau. No matter what their identity or past mistakes, the Administrative Bureau would not hold it against them.

To put it bluntly, as long as someone had the ability and was willing to serve the Administrative Bureau, they would be accepted, and the Administrative Bureau would even become their protector.

"I thought that as long as I contributed enough, they would definitely accept me. Now it seems I was thinking too much. They have a deep-seated prejudice against me, and it won't decrease no matter how much I do."

Bai Xue smiled and spoke, although her smile was tinged with a hint of coldness and mockery. The original source is M|V|L5EMPYR.

Bai Xue didn't explode in anger, and her emotions didn't show much agitation. However, Yang Haoran could sense the anger and disappointment in her heart.

"You can't say that. In my opinion, at least the Spirit Police I've come into contact with don't have any prejudice against you. On the contrary, they respect you very much. As for why the Administrative Bureau made this decision, I estimate it's because they were driven by benefits or threatened by an irresistible force, which led them to abandon you."

After Yang Haoran's reminder, Bai Xue seemed to have thought of something.

"Big brother Underworld Envoy, your meaning is that this matter is likely related to those two demon hunters?"

Yang Haoran took a puff of his cigarette and then nodded.

"I indeed believe so. You've been doing well in the Spirit Police, and the Administrative Bureau has never made an issue of your identity, let alone take action against you. Now that these two demon hunters have just arrived in Lecheng, the Administrative Bureau first orders the Spirit Police to assist them in finding their son's whereabouts, and then decides to take action against you. If this matter has nothing to do with these two, it's hard for me to believe."

Bai Xue furrowed her brow, thinking about Yang Haoran's words, while Yang Haoran paused for a moment before continuing his analysis.

"These two spouses must have already known that their son has encountered difficulties, and their so-called search for their son's trail is actually an investigation into their son's cause of death. You, although working for the Lecheng officialdom, are a demon in essence, which is no secret. And their son is a demon hunter, so demons and demon hunters have always been like fire and water, incompatible. In their eyes, their son's death is likely related to you. Therefore, they pressured the Administrative Bureau, or used benefits to drive the Administrative Bureau, which led to the Administrative Bureau deciding to take action against you, a meritorious official."

Although Yang Haoran's words were just an analysis and speculation, they were not without reason. After thinking it over, Bai Xue believed that the facts might indeed be as Yang Haoran had analyzed.

"Heh heh, who cares? Anyway, I didn't want to stay in the Spirit Police anymore. If it weren't for considering Underworld Envoy big brother you, I wouldn't want to be their Spirit Police's thug."

Bai Xue first gave a cold smile, then spoke, her tone although casual, but not hard to detect the resentment in her voice.

"Heh heh, Underworld Envoy big brother, now that I've been driven out by the Spirit Police, you won't also drive me away, will you?"

When saying this to Yang Haoran, Bai Xue put away her cold smile and restored her demon-like smile.

"You still have the mood to joke, so I'm relieved. The Spirit Police can be ignored for now. Just stay at home recently and wait for Old Wu to bring back detailed information before making further plans."

Yang Haoran smiled and spoke, then extinguished the cigarette in his hand.

Seeing that Yang Haoran was not taking the bait, Bai Xue's face showed no interest, and she didn't continue to probe Yang Haoran's thoughts. After listening to Yang Haoran's words, she thought of another important question and asked.

"What if I didn't show up, and the two spouses came directly to this place?"

Yang Haoran smiled and replied, his expression calm.

"Heh heh, when the enemy comes, we'll fight; when the water comes, we'll build a dam. First, we'll try to bluff, and if we can't bluff, we'll take action. What else can we do?"

Yang Haoran's response made Bai Xue laugh, and her mood improved significantly.

"You're good at bluffing, and I've experienced it myself. At least, I'm still not out of your bluffing range."

Yang Haoran's face showed a bitter smile, and he didn't agree with Bai Xue's words.

"I like to bluff others, but I didn't bluff you. I won't take responsibility for this pot."

Deputy Captain Zhou's work efficiency was high. After sending a Sound Transmission Talisman to Bai Xue, he contacted Old Wu within less than half a day and informed him of the detailed situation.

He chose to let Master Wu convey the message instead of meeting Bai Xue directly because he had his difficulties.

Currently, Captain Luo was severely injured and unconscious, and all major and minor matters of the Spirit Police needed to be handled by him. As the second-in-command of the Spirit Police, if he met with Bai Xue at this time, it would be difficult to keep it secret. If it were exposed, the consequences would be unbearable.

He didn't contact Yang Haoran because Yang Haoran was not someone he could contact at will. He had no idea where Yang Haoran would go, even if they had just met.

If he went to Yang Haoran's villa, it would be like trying to cover one's ears to steal a bell, and it would be better to come to the villa to talk to Bai Xue directly.

So, after thinking it over, he decided to contact Old Wu and let Old Wu bring the message back.

Master Wu was handling various affairs at the Death God Temple and would occasionally appear in the city. Deputy Captain Zhou knew this, so he wanted to contact Master Wu, which would be relatively simpler.

However, this approach also carried risks, and the possibility of exposure still existed. It was just better than contacting Bai Xue directly.

After Master Wu learned about the situation from Deputy Captain Zhou, he knew that time was of the essence and didn't dare to delay. He immediately put down his work and rushed back to the villa, where he met Yang Haoran and Bai Xue.

The situation was indeed as Yang Haoran had guessed. The Administrative Bureau's decision to take action against Bai Xue was indeed related to the two demon hunters.

However, these two demon hunters didn't give the Administrative Bureau any benefits. Instead, they used threats to demand that the Administrative Bureau hand over Bai Xue. The reason was simple: they were demon hunters, and their duty was to eliminate all demons in the world. The Administrative Bureau hiring a serpent demon as a thug conflicted with their duty, so they wouldn't allow it to happen and wanted to force the Administrative Bureau to hand over Bai Xue.

The Administrative Bureau was also very angry about this, but they had no way to resist, as their strength was too weak in the eyes of the two demon hunters. If they didn't agree, the Administrative Bureau might cease to exist.
