"Mr. Ge, this is Xu Lei, the head of the Special Ability Management Bureau in Jiangnan Province and the Deputy Director of the Jiangnan Province National Security Bureau. If you have any issues in the future, you can directly contact him." After shaking hands and exchanging greetings with Ge Dongxu, Fan Hong specifically introduced Xu Lei to Ge Dongxu.

"Hello, Director Xu, we've met before on Xiaoyuan Mountain." Now that he had become a consultant for this department, Ge Dongxu naturally "accepted his fate" and showed no signs of reluctance or dissatisfaction, smiling and extending his hand to Xu Lei.

During the Xiaoyuan Mountain operation, Xu Lei, as the head of the Special Ability Management Bureau in Jiangnan Province, naturally participated in the operation.

"Director Ge, hello. If there's anything you need, feel free to contact me any time." Xu Lei, not expecting Ge Dongxu to remember him, was pleasantly surprised and quickly stretched out both hands to firmly shake Ge Dongxu's hand.

Ge Dongxu held the position of a director-level consultant, so Xu Lei addressed him as director.

"Thank you in advance," Ge Dongxu said with a smile and a nod of his head.

"You're welcome, it's my duty and my honor," Xu Lei replied, standing erect, his expression solemn, and his gaze toward Ge Dongxu filled with a hint of reverence.

What happened at Xiaoyuan Mountain in the early hours of that day was still fresh in Xu Lei's memory, and the recollection of it couldn't help but leave him with lingering fear.

One could say that Ge Dongxu's terrifying level of cultivation made him a legendary figure within Qimen, beyond the regular reach of local heads like Xu Lei.

"Alright, you all may leave now, Mr. Ge and I have some matters to discuss," Fan Hong said after Xu Lei had exchanged greetings with Ge Dongxu.

"Yes!" Xu Lei and the others responded, then exited the private room and carefully closed the door behind them.

"I think it would now be more appropriate to address you as Director Ge, here are your identification documents. Since our department is even more special than any other bureau within the National Security Department, the identity is mainly to be revealed within Qimen, so there are two sets of documents, one for the National Security Department and the other for the Special Ability Management Bureau. The former is to facilitate your actions, whereas the latter will be needed when dealing with our internal personnel or people from Qimen." After Xu Lei and others left, Fan Hong took out the documents and solemnly handed them to Ge Dongxu.

"Alright." Ge Dongxu looked them over briefly before putting them away.

Seeing that Ge Dongxu just flipped through the documents before putting them away, Fan Hong couldn't help but smile wryly. This small booklet represented very special and powerful authority; in emergency situations, it could even directly mobilize local military forces, and the rank it represented was that of a deputy ministerial level. For anyone else receiving such documents, excitement would be an understatement, but only someone like Ge Dongxu could handle it so casually.

"In times of need, you may present this document, it should help you avoid a lot of trouble, and even in emergency situations, it allows for the mobilization of local military forces to coordinate with your actions. Of course, if there really is any problem, just call Xu Lei; as the head of Jiangnan Province, he will ensure that everything is properly resolved. Our department, although only at the deputy ministerial level, cannot be measured by the usual standards of such a rank in many respects," Fan Hong felt compelled to explain.

"Alright, I understand," Ge Dongxu's expression finally turned a bit more serious as he nodded in agreement.

Afterward, Fan Hong briefly explained the regulations of the Special Ability Management Bureau. Of course, most of these regulations were only applicable to actual staff within the bureau. As a nominal consultant like Ge Dongxu, the vast majority of the rules were irrelevant to him. The only rule closely related to him was that he still needed to lend a hand in the event of extreme and egregious incidents involving national security.

Although Ge Dongxu was reluctant to join the Special Ability Management Bureau, it didn't mean he wasn't patriotic. He simply didn't want to be constrained. Therefore, even without the last rule, he was bound to act if national security was threatened. Hence, after listening to Fan Hong's explanation, Ge Dongxu wasn't against joining the bureau anymore.

Of course, this was a choice made out of necessity.

"Here's your salary card, your company car keys, and the keys to your residence in Linzhou City. I didn't provide you with firearms. Given your abilities, firearms are superfluous," Fan Hong said as he finished discussing the regulations and then took out a bank card, a car key, and a bunch of keys of various sizes from his briefcase.

"You can keep these things; I'm just holding the title, and besides, you know I don't lack any of that," Ge Dongxu said, looking at the bank card, car keys, and house keys laid before him, feeling slightly surprised before smiling and pushing them back to Fan Hong.

"Your acceptance of our invitation is already the greatest support for our work. These are items you, as an advisor of your level, are entitled to. If you refuse them, I'm the one who would be in an awkward position. It would be difficult for me to ask for your help when it's truly needed," Fan Hong said earnestly.

Ge Dongxu looked at Fan Hong, gave it some thought, and felt that he made sense. His role as an advisor wasn't just a nominal one; if ever needed, it would certainly be for a grave matter. Besides, if he didn't accept these items, who knew who would end up benefitting from them? It'd be better to keep them in hand and donate them to children in impoverished mountainous areas.

Of course, if he didn't accept them, Fan Hong probably wouldn't be at ease either. Read chapters at My Virtual Library Empire

"Alright then, but let the department use the car for now. I don't have a driver's license, nor do I know how to drive. As for the house, just leave it be for the moment. I need to wait until after the college entrance exam and the summer holidays before I can move to Linzhou City," Ge Dongxu took the salary card and said.

"Hehe, not knowing how to drive is not a problem. Whenever you're free, Xu Lei can arrange for someone to accompany you for a few practice sessions, and you'll learn quickly. In a few days, Xu Lei will bring you your driver's license. As for your car, since it is your dedicated car and quite special, others in the department are not qualified to drive it without permission. If you don't live in the house right now, someone will take care of it, and you can move in whenever you like. In short, the car and the house are in Linzhou, and whenever you have time, let Xu Lei take you to see them. If they don't meet your satisfaction, tell him, and he'll change them for you," Fan Hong said as he pocketed the car keys and house keys on the table.

"There's no need for such trouble. I can go to a driving school during the summer holidays to learn," Ge Dongxu said, still not accustomed to the privileges that came with his change in status, and waved his hand.

"Please don't be modest with me. As the bureau's director-level consultant, if you still need to get a driver's license from a driving school, that would be a joke if it got out," Fan Hong asserted, looking at Ge Dongxu with a hint of something different in his gaze.

If previously his feelings for Ge Dongxu were complex, with awe and gratitude for his release on Xiaoyuan Mountain, as well as deep wariness of his terrifying power—with the latter occupying a greater part of his mixed emotions—it was why he approached Elder Feng to persuade Ge Dongxu to join the Special Ability Management Bureau. But now, observing Ge Dongxu's every word and action, the wariness was gradually diminishing, and he finally understood why Elder Feng said that Ge Dongxu had a simple and sincere heart.

With such strength and such a status and power, yet still being able to maintain such a modest heart, that was indeed very rare.
