King of Assassins-Chapter 796 - 587 Profound Nether

After closing the communication, Wei Ying sat in the chair, pondering for a long time.

What does this head of the Security Department really mean?

Intending to take this opportunity to kill Black Tiger? There's no need to be so troublesome. With his power, a word could settle Black Tiger.

Wei Ying felt that Xu Jun just wanted to test Black Tiger. If he's capable, then promote him with a raise. If not, naturally eliminate him. Saves wasting his sister's feelings.

Wei Ying didn't really appreciate Xu Jun's approach. Your sister finding a man is her business, why meddle as her brother.

After all, Black Tiger is someone she personally promoted as a trusted aide. Moreover, Black Tiger has been performing well during this time. He's capable, meticulous in his work. More than capable of managing a small group.

Wei Ying was displeased but couldn't go against Xu Jun's wishes. She called Gao Xuan into the office, informing him about the matter of the Divine Crystal.

"This time it's a joint operation of three departments. You're the representative of our Field Department, make sure you don't disgrace our Field Department outside."

Wei Ying thought for a moment and added, "There are big shots watching this time, use all your ability. Understand?"

Seeing Wei Ying's expression, Gao Xuan roughly understood, there's more behind this task.

Gao Xuan vaguely understood Xu Fang's family background, knowing that her family is among the company's upper management. This kind of thing is normal.

At least, they didn't directly call for bloodshed. Just letting him go do the job.

The more dangerous the task, the easier it is to get promoted. Reaching P5, you can then rightfully obtain a set of cultivation secret techniques in the company.

Gao Xuan hadn't stirred up any trouble lately, it's because he didn't want to appear too outstanding. Nor did he want to take risks for shortcuts.

His body was only twenty-four years old, getting a cultivation secret technique before turning thirty was still timely.

A reincarnation spanning a millennium has made him more patient and forbearing.

A thousand years ago, he rushed forward because there was an urgent goal ahead.

Now, the world has become like this. He hadn't even figured out himself, where would he get the energy to bother with anything else.

Therefore, after Gao Xuan awakened his Divine Soul and recovered his memories, he lived leisurely and carefree.

He was always busy doing various things.

In this era, he finally could enjoy life. Although the power wasn't strong, although this era was somewhat lousy, he still found it quite good.

Gao Xuan very calmly accepted this reality. Even without anyone deliberately suppressing him, in this era, without power, without influence, life couldn't be very comfortable.

The matter of the Divine Crystal still required the Special Services Department to feed back more information. The so-called union now is just all parties sitting together for a meeting.

Naturally speaking, Gao Xuan wasn't qualified to attend such level meetings. But with a direct nod from the head of the Security Department, Gao Xuan got a seat in the conference room.

A bunch of people sitting together didn't actually have anything serious, it was just grandiose talk, filled with bureaucracy.

After all, they were all company mid-to-upper management, each only responsible for speaking. Different departments sat together but no one could order anyone, boasting became the best option.

Gao Xuan naturally had no right to speak, he sat quietly on the side, but he did clarify the story's context.

The so-called Divine Crystal is actually the crystallization of the Evil God's Divine Soul and Power.

The Moon God is a very powerful Evil God in East Continent, arguably one of the strongest Evil Gods.

For some unknown reason, the Moon God held a particular grudge against Yuanlong Company. Repeated disturbances caused significant loss to the company.

A cross-star realm giant like Yuanlong Company wouldn't swallow such anger easily. Therefore, the Special Services Department painstakingly planted undercover agents, finally locating the Moon God's true body.

It should be noted that Field Department and Special Services Department differ by only one word in their names, yet their statuses differ significantly.

The Field Department is akin to ordinary soldiers, whereas the Special Services Department is like a special forces unit.

The Special Services Department comprises experts, undertaking the most significant and dangerous missions. The Special Services Department also holds especially high status within the company. This time, the Special Services Department even sent a woman over to explain the situation.

Under meticulous planning by the Special Services Department, they managed to assassinate the Moon God.

The Moon God fled before dying. The Divine Crystal left behind was taken away by the Moon God's Apostle.

The Evil God's Divine Crystal, once nurtured for a period, can recreate an Evil God.

Once purified, the Divine Crystal becomes a top-tier Spiritual Object. It can directly elevate a person's Divine Soul level. It's said it can even lift someone's Divine Soul level to the Golden Core Level.

This kind of Spiritual Object is naturally extremely valuable.

For the sake of Divine Crystals, some organizations even specifically hunt Evil Gods. Unfortunately, the conditions to form a Divine Crystal are rather stringent. Killing an Evil God doesn't guarantee a Divine Crystal.

Hence, to obtain the Moon God's Divine Crystal, the company invested a lot of manpower.

Though the Special Services Department is composed of elite members, they are short-handed. The Field Department may lack combat power, but they have numbers.

Moreover, the Field Department is very familiar with various areas of Mingjing. With their assistance, a lot of time can be saved.

As for the Security Department, it usually deals with internal matters. The Security Department primarily ensures the safety of the company's property and personnel.

The Security Department holds all information about company personnel and evaluates personal security weekly.

In this matter, the Security Department's real role is to provide information support.

The Security Department is extremely strong in cyberspace security technology. Wherever the Celestial Net covers, the Security Department can invade.

In a place like Mingjing, Yuanlong Company is the strongest. Other companies, organizations, are not much worth invading. Hence, the primary role of the Security Department is ensuring internal company security.

This time, due to the importance of the Divine Crystal, the Security Department was also seconded over.

Security Minister Yao Ping is also the highest-ranking individual here. Following normal procedures, Yao Ping would be the commander for this joint action.

Yao Ping is a middle-aged, chubby man, sitting there with a cheerful smile, constantly talking and boasting, appearing very unreliable.

However, he is the commander. Everyone, willing or not, has to cooperate with him.

The group sat in the conference room until dark. Yao Ping looked at the time and said, "It's time to clock out for the day, we'll discuss any issues tomorrow."

Everyone exchanged glances. In the end, no one said anything. Clocking out means clocking out. After all, Yao Ping is the one taking the lead.

Yao Ping also understood the group's concerns and cheerfully said, "I've talked with the Special Services Department. We still can't confirm the opponent's location and situation for now. It will take a few days to get detailed information."

Mingjing is too large, the so-called Mingjing West District alone has dozens of square kilometers, where millions of people are concentrated.

The complex structure of the buildings above and underground made it impossible to find someone without precise information, even if an army of tens of thousands were to charge in.

Everyone actually understood this principle. It's just that for such a big matter, everyone felt something superficial should be done. Unexpectedly, Yao Ping was so relaxed.

Yao Ping finally said, "Everyone go home and rest, don't turn off communications. Be ready 24/7."

The crowd responded, and after waiting for Yao Ping to leave first, they all quickly dispersed.

Gao Xuan didn't go home; he went to find Xu Fang.

Xu Fang was a mid-level executive in the company, and she lived in a building next to the Headquarter Tower. This area was mostly occupied by company executives and some wealthy people from Mingjing.

The security level here was very high; without the access card Xu Fang gave him, Gao Xuan wouldn't have been able to get in.

Recently, the relationship between Xu Fang and Gao Xuan had been very affectionate. To take care of Xu Fang's feelings, Gao Xuan reluctantly agreed to stay at her place.

When Gao Xuan entered, Xu Fang suddenly rushed over to hug him. She said excitedly, "I heard about it. My brother is such a jerk!"

She softly comforted Gao Xuan, "Poor baby, getting wronged like this..."

Women in love are all sweet like this. Although Gao Xuan found the nickname a bit amusing, he tacitly accepted it.

After all, he's in this intimate relationship every day; even being called "good baby" was fine by him.

Gao Xuan gently patted Xu Fang, "Don't get agitated; it's just a normal work assignment."

Xu Fang pouted and said, "No, I heard this time it's very dangerous. My brother specifically asked you to participate. He's really mean!"

"Did Wei Ying tell you?" Gao Xuan asked.

"Yes, if she hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known."

Xu Fang was very angry, but she really didn't dare to argue with Xu Jun. Not because she feared Xu Jun, but mainly because she was afraid Xu Jun would take it out on Gao Xuan. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

To Xu Fang's surprise, Gao Xuan was calm and indifferent, "Our kind of work is inherently dangerous."

He paused and said, "Danger comes with high risk, but it also comes with high rewards. If I earn merits this time, a promotion to level P5 is no problem."

"Baby, you really have such grit. You're bold and capable."

Xu Fang's eyes sparkled, "I really love you."

To be honest, this matter really put Xu Fang in a difficult position. On one hand, she was angry at her brother for messing around, and on the other hand, she didn't know how to face Gao Xuan. Besides, she couldn't help in this matter at all.

But Gao Xuan was so magnanimous, and very rational and calm, facing the issue with a positive attitude.

Xu Fang was truly moved; she thought Gao Xuan was so tolerant and generous all for her.

She was somewhat emotional as she wrapped her arms around Gao Xuan's neck and said, "Come want me, take all your anger out on me!"

"I'm not angry..."

Xu Fang ignored what Gao Xuan said and started to undress him.

Alright, Gao Xuan might not have been angry, but to prove he wasn't weak, he gladly rose to meet the challenge.

After several rounds, Xu Fang lay satisfied in Gao Xuan's arms, her eyes filled with gentle allure, "Are you satisfied now?"

"It's obviously you who are satisfied..."

Gao Xuan found it a bit amusing. Fortunately, he brought back the Thirteen Grand Protectors' Cross Training these days, not only strengthening his muscles but also his energy and blood.

Otherwise, he might have actually been exhausted by Xu Fang.

"Hmph, I was obviously doing it to satisfy you."

After a woman's excitement, her mood is cheerful and delighted; she enjoyed clinging to Gao Xuan even more.

Although Gao Xuan lost most of his memories, sweet-talking to a woman was his natural skill, something he would never forget.

Holding Xu Fang, he whispered a few sweet words, and both of them felt good.

After cuddling for a while, Xu Fang suddenly said, "I have something good for you."

"Hmm?"

Gao Xuan asked, "What is it?"

"The Profound Nether Technique."

Xu Fang said as she took out a small round chip, silver-plated on the surface, looking like a button battery. Just much more exquisitely made.

"Cultivation Secret Technique?"

Gao Xuan was a bit surprised, "Where did you get from?"

Xu Fang said, "I took it from my brother. Who told him to make things difficult for you."

"This,"

Gao Xuan pondered; he naturally wanted the cultivation secret technique, but obtaining it this way made him feel somewhat uneasy.

It's not such a big deal to rely on someone. Once he mastered the cultivation, he could repay Xu Fang a thousandfold.

He mainly feared that this secret technique had a shady origin and might cause trouble.

In this era, all cultivation secret techniques were valuable assets. Moreover, most secret techniques had restrictions and couldn't be privately passed on.

This was also how the upper echelons controlled knowledge, artificially creating class barriers.

Just like Xu Fang, she started cultivating secret techniques at a very young age. Although her combat abilities weren't good, her spirit, Source Power, and other aspects were much higher than Gao Xuan's.

"This is my gift to you. What are you afraid of?"

Xu Fang knew Gao Xuan was eager for the cultivation secret technique, and she didn't think there was anything to hesitate about.

Xu Fang reached out and stuck the chip to the back of Gao Xuan's brain machine position. The magnetic sheet on the chip naturally adhered to the brain machine.

She happily kissed Gao Xuan, "Alright, baby, go to cyberspace and activate the secret technique, otherwise, it will expire..."
