When Luo Feng was together with his parents and younger brother, Mingyue Community became lively again, because the Hall Master and the three supervisors from the main city were about to arrive.
Chief instructor Wu Tong led dozens of martial artists to wait.
“Why are the Hall Master and the three supervisors all coming today?”
“All four big figures are coming to our community. That is rare.”
The martial artists discussed among themselves.
“They are here,” Wu Tong said, looking up.
Everyone fell silent and looked at the sky.
A streak of light cut through the sky, slowed down, and turned into a dark blue disc shaped flying combat aircraft hovering above Mingyue Community. It then began to descend.
“Let’s go, receive the Hall Master,” Wu Tong said, leading dozens of martial artists forward. As for the other family members, they were not allowed to approach. This was a reception for the Hall Master and the three supervisors, and it could not be disorderly.
Clang.
The hatch opened, and a set of automatic stairs extended downward. Leading the way was Hall Master Zhou in black clothes, followed by the three supervisors, who all walked down the stairs in turn.
“Greetings, Hall Master, greetings, three supervisors,” Wu Tong bowed.
“Greetings, Hall Master, greetings, three supervisors,” the martial artists also bowed.
In the distance, many martial artists’ family members were extremely excited and whispered among themselves. These were the four top figures of the Jiangnan Base City Extreme Limit Martial Hall, people they normally would not even get the chance to see.
“Mmm,” Zhou Zhengyong nodded.
The martial artists held their breath. Just as Wu Tong once brought Luo Feng to meet Supervisor Zhuge Tao, they had all been extremely respectful. The status difference between a chief instructor of a satellite city and a city supervisor was huge, let alone the Hall Master. In front of them, everyone was extremely restrained.
“Is the Inspector Luo at home?” Zhou Zhengyong asked with a smile.
Silence.
Wu Tong and dozens of martial artists froze. Inspector Luo? Who was that?
“Inspector Luo?” Wu Tong widened his eyes.
“Yes, Inspector Luo Feng,” Zhou Zhengyong smiled. He did not dare casually call him “that kid Luo Feng”. That was his superior, and also a man evaluated by the highest decision makers of the Extreme Limit Martial Hall as an “invincible battle god”. A middle ranked battle god like him, Zhou Zhengyong, could not afford to offend him.
“Luo Feng? Inspector Luo?” Wu Tong and the others were stunned.
Zhuge Tao smiled and said, “The global headquarters has issued the appointment. Luo Feng is officially the Inspector of our Jiangnan Base City Extreme Limit Martial Hall. We are here today to pay a visit to Inspector Luo.”
“Oh, Luo Feng, Inspector Luo is at home with his family,” Wu Tong quickly replied. “Hall Master, three supervisors, should we inform the Inspector?”
“I will inform him myself,” Zhou Zhengyong said with a smile, taking out his phone.
Wu Tong and the others watched closely.
The call connected.
“Hello, Inspector Luo, this is Zhou Zhengyong,” he said politely. “I am already at Mingyue Community, and the three supervisors are with me. No rush, no rush. We will wait for you at the martial hall.”
After hanging up, Zhou Zhengyong looked at Wu Tong and smiled. “Wu Tong, let’s go take a look at your Yangzhou Extreme Limit Martial Hall.”
“Yes, Hall Master,” Wu Tong quickly followed.
……
The entire Mingyue Community quickly became boiling with excitement. News that Luo Feng was the new Inspector of the Jiangnan Base City Extreme Limit Martial Hall spread rapidly. Almost everyone knew within a short time, except those not in the community.
Everyone was shocked and excited, and only then did they realise the truth after thinking about the earlier flying combat aircraft.
“No wonder Luo Feng could afford a flying combat aircraft. He is an Inspector.”
“Call him Inspector now. Do not casually say Luo Feng anymore.”
“The Inspector is only about 20 years old, or 19 if counting full years. Not even married yet. Does he have a girlfriend?”
“No idea.”
Many people were already thinking about building connections with Luo Feng’s family, or even introducing marriage prospects. After all, an Inspector must be at least a high level battle god, and among high level battle gods, they were already elite figures across the world.
Anyone related to such a person would benefit greatly.
In a reception room of the Extreme Limit Martial Hall, five people were present: the four top figures of Jiangnan Base City and Luo Feng.
At this moment, Luo Feng was sitting in a chair. On his way here, the attitude of neighbours and martial artists in the community had surprised him. It seemed everyone was extremely enthusiastic, even calling him “Inspector Luo”.
He immediately understood that his identity had been exposed.
But it would have been exposed sooner or later. He was already mentally prepared.
“Inspector Luo, let me introduce you,” Zhou Zhengyong said with a smile. “These three are the supervisors of our Jiangnan City Extreme Limit Martial Hall. This is Zhuge Tao, this is Wang Kefan, and this is Yu Sen.”
“Greetings, Inspector,” the three stood up.
“No need to be so formal, just sit,” Luo Feng said calmly. “You are all my seniors. Supervisor Zhuge Tao even helped me before. I am very grateful.”
After a few minutes of conversation, Luo Feng’s relaxed attitude made the four leaders feel less tense.
It seemed this young man, despite his position, did not have an arrogant personality.
“Hall Master Zhou,” Luo Feng said, “I will take responsibility for what an Inspector should do. As for the Jiangnan Base City matters, the Martial Hall can continue as usual. I am young and do not understand much, so I will not interfere.”
Hearing this, the four were even more pleased.
“However, I hope everyone will not cross any lines,” Luo Feng said seriously. “Since the headquarters appointed me, I also need to give them an explanation.”
In truth, he had not even read the official email about his responsibilities yet.
“Rest assured, Inspector Luo,” Zhou Zhengyong said quickly. “If anyone crosses the line, I will deal with them before you even need to speak.”
“There is no need to be so serious,” Luo Feng smiled. “I am easy to get along with. I just get a bit hot tempered sometimes. I am still young, so I ask all of you seniors to be understanding.”
“Hall Master Zhou, I have a request,” Luo Feng said.
“Please speak,” Zhou replied.
“I want to ask you to help investigate my parents’ relatives from the Great Nirvana period. Back then, they were separated from many family members. I want to find out whether any of their cousins, uncles, aunts, or even elders are still alive.”
Zhou Zhengyong frowned slightly. “This will be quite difficult.”
Luo Feng’s brows also furrowed.
Zhou continued, “Many cities were destroyed during that time, communication collapsed, and records were lost. The Martial Hall cannot investigate this. It will require the government’s database. Their records are more complete.”
“No problem getting the government to help?” Luo Feng asked.
“For the Chinese government, your influence is greater than mine,” Zhou said with a smile. “Once they know it is for you, they will handle it very carefully.”
Luo Feng nodded.
“We will also hold a grand welcome banquet for the new Inspector,” Zhou added. “It will include officials, business leaders, martial artists, and even important national figures. When would you like it to be held?”
Luo Feng thought for a moment.
“Then the 1st of next month, September 1st,” he said.
That evening, Luo Feng returned home and had dinner with his friends Chen Gu and Zhang Ke in a lively gathering.
Late at night, he sat in the viewing room, reading an email from headquarters about his responsibilities as Inspector.
“Mmm.”
“Pretty easy overall,” he nodded.
Beside him lay a dark blue helmet, an awareness induction device.
He picked it up.
When using it at home, the most important thing was safety. Once worn, consciousness enters a virtual space, making him vulnerable if attacked. However, within a base city and martial artist residential area, no one would dare to attempt anything.
Still, safety warnings remained.
The device also had a security system that could detect intrusion.
“Others worry about safety. I do not,” Luo Feng smiled.
Black armour spread over his body, the Black God Set.
He set a safety zone of five metres by five metres. If anyone entered, he would be automatically pulled out of the virtual space.
He put on the helmet.
Black armour already covered it, and he sat cross legged like a black statue.
He entered the virtual space.
The Battle God Palace existed there, and the basics of Spirit Reader cultivation could only be studied inside the virtual world.
