Zhou Yaning and several of his subordinates rushed forward and surrounded Wen Meng.

It looked like they were going to fight, but they were from the same department after all, so why would they fight for no reason? Qian Xiaoling and the others just didn't want others to know Lu Chengchuan's background.

"I'm just asking casually, why are you so anxious?" Wen Meng said innocently.

He just asked casually, is there any need for such a big reaction?

Qian Xiaoling stood between the two of them, her face becoming very stern. "Don't talk nonsense. Why are you asking so many questions? You're not part of our team."

"Stop arguing. We're all family. Just do what you need to do. What's the point of arguing here?"

Soon, Wen Meng's team members came to persuade them to stop fighting. People from other teams heard them arguing and sat aside to watch the fun.

There was definitely no fight. It wasn't that Qian Xiaoling and the others were afraid, nor was it that she looked down on her colleagues. If a fight really broke out, no one present would be a match for Lu Chengchuan.

She didn't want to fight because they were at headquarters, and fighting here would mean she felt her life was too good.

"Sister Xiaoling, I don't think he is a person with special abilities. Is he really from your team?" Wen Meng said in a very low voice.

"Don't worry about it. He has met the director. If there is really a problem, can he come in here?" Qian Xiaoling had no choice but to bring the director out.

It is true that Lu Chengchuan met with the director, and she was the one who brought him there at that time.

The director had met him before, so his identity was clear. However, Wen Meng was still very curious: "Director? He's really from your team. That's strange."

The two teams returned to their respective seats, and Qian Xiaoling sat down: "Brother Lu, I'm sorry."

"It's okay. I'm just curious, is this the relationship between your team?"

This relationship doesn't seem like that of a team from the same department. Is there competition between each team?

"Actually, there is no competition. We don't usually do this. Don't mind it." Qian Xiaoling was a little embarrassed, but family disgrace should not be made public, so she glossed over it.

More than ten minutes later, Zhou Yaning and the others came back, and the rest of the team also began to leave.

Zhou Yaning came over and said, "The director wants to see you, let's go."

After the meeting, Director Zhang specifically told her that he wanted to see Lu Chengchuan. Zhou Yaning asked her subordinates to sit for a while, and she took Lu Chengchuan upstairs.

The two of them came to the office upstairs. Zhang Chengyan was typing on the keyboard. When there was a knock on the door, he pushed the keyboard back and asked someone to come in.

Zhou Yaning opened the door and the two walked into the office.

"Mr. Lu is here."

Seeing Lu Chengchuan coming, Zhang Chengyan also called out "Mr. Lu".

"Director Zhang is too polite."

Zhang Chengyan had a smile on his face, like an old fox. Lu Chengchuan had no idea what he was planning.

"Sit down first. You've helped us a lot this time. If it weren't for you, Mayor Li's daughter would have been in great danger. Tell me what you want."

Lu Chengchuan not only saved Mayor Li's daughter, but if he hadn't ordered people to retreat, more people would have died in the west of the city.

"You know, I only want martial arts, preferably advanced ones." Lu Chengchuan wanted martial arts, especially advanced ones.

Although low-level martial arts can be integrated, they consume too much lifespan. He still wants to find as many high-level martial arts as possible, so that he can achieve the desired results in one go.

"I know. I'll try my best to find it for you. I'll have someone find two martial arts manuals for you right away."

Zhang Chengyan knew that he was not after money or power, but only wanted martial arts, so he played to his tastes and used martial arts to bribe him so that he would maintain a cooperative relationship with the Investigation Bureau.

"I'm calling you here for another matter. Sili Headquarters is sending someone to investigate, and I want Yaning to cooperate with them. I'm worried about accidents, so I'd like you to come and help."

Sili, which means the central government, is divided into six major regions. Guangnan Province is one of them.

They are close to the sea in the south and connected to another country in the west. This black fog incident is only happening in Anyang City. The black fog in other places has not moved, only here it has moved.

Sili wanted to know what happened, so they sent an investigation team to investigate.

Zhang Chengyan also had some considerations. When people came to their place, their safety must be guaranteed. Although Sili also sent people to protect the investigation team, he was still worried.

Lu Chengchuan's strength is unfathomable. Looking at the entire Shenghua country, he may be the only one who can stand against him.

Zhang Chengyan felt more at ease when he asked him to protect the investigation team.

"That's no problem." Lu Chengchuan agreed. He would do whatever it took to protect the investigation team, and maybe they would encounter more monsters.

"That's good. You can decide the details yourself. Just make sure everyone is safe."

The two didn't chat for long. After a few minutes, they left and Zhou Yaning took him to the next room to wait. After a while, a staff member brought two books.

"Captain Zhou, this is what the director told you to do."

"Okay, I understand." Zhou Yaning took the things, and after the people left, he handed the book to Lu Chengchuan.

Lu Chengchuan took it and immediately opened one of the books.

They don't need to go out on field work now, they just need to wait here for the investigation team to arrive.

Soul-capturing technique!

When he opened the cover of the book, he saw four big characters. The name of this martial arts book was Soul-Captivating Technique. It looked very powerful. After he finished reading the contents, he found that the name was indeed worthy of the name.

[I have sensed the Earth-level martial art (Soul-stealing Technique). Do you want to learn it? Learning it requires 5 years of lifespan.]

Just learning the Earth-level skills would take five years of your life.

Lu Chengchuan suppressed the excitement in his heart and immediately chose to study. At this moment, five years of his life were consumed and countless information flooded into his mind.

A large amount of information rushed into his mind, and Lu Chengchuan's expression became dazed.

After being in a daze for a few minutes and digesting the information in his brain, Lu Chengchuan regained consciousness.

"Taiyi guards the body, Taishang captures the soul... they are indeed earth-level martial arts... what a pity."

After coming back to his senses, Lu Chengchuan was both happy and sad. He was happy to have acquired a ground-level martial art, but sadly, he could not improve his martial arts skills.

First, he didn't have enough lifespan. The first level of the Soul Harvesting Technique required fifty years of lifespan, which he didn't have yet. Second, his realm wasn't high enough, and even if he learned the Soul Harvesting Technique, he wouldn't be able to ascend.

This martial art is useless to him at the moment, he needs to break through the realm to improve it.

After learning a martial art that he couldn't use for the time being, Lu Chengchuan sighed silently and then picked up the second martial arts book.

[I have sensed a Xuan-level martial art (Qi-gazing technique). Do you want to learn it? Learning it requires 30 days of life.]

The second martial arts book is not so advanced, but it is also a mysterious martial arts, which is suitable for him to learn. This martial arts book is also a bit special. It cannot enhance the combat effectiveness of the practitioner, but it gives the practitioner the ability to obtain "Wang Qi".

Qi is the root of human beings. Not only humans, but all living things have Qi in their bodies. By learning the art of looking at Qi, practitioners can see the "Qi" in the target's body and judge the strength and health of the target based on the Qi.

Although it does not increase combat effectiveness, Lu Chengchuan also needs this martial art.
