I created the Bureau of Anomaly Control

Most of the politicians who were watching the battle had already withdrawn their gazes when Ma En grasped the Golden Core, preparing to offer their half-baked insights and opinions on the fight, but at that moment, they suddenly heard Du Jin's resentful and terrified scream.

Ma En killed him.

Many politicians suddenly seemed unsure of what to say, and could only stand there looking at each other, then turned their gazes towards Kang Shouxing, who was in charge of personnel allocation, while Kang Shouxing turned his head directly to Shadow, who had not yet reacted.

"Is he really dead?" Kang Shouxing asked uncertainly, still doubting whether he had correctly understood the scene he had witnessed.

Shadow then nodded to him:

"You might not be able to see it, but Du Jin just now somehow wanted to kill Ma En, and he did it secretly after saying it was just a friendly exchange, wanting to take advantage of Ma En's lowered guard to kill him, so he killed Du Jin in retaliation."

Before the other politicians could say anything, a dissatisfied female voice came from behind them:

"I certainly didn't see Du Jin wanting to kill Ma En, but we all saw that Ma En had just subdued Du Jin, and he took action directly without discussing it with us. You must know that we are not yet clear why Du Jin wanted to kill him. Maybe he was bewitched or controlled by someone, and this Ma En took action without even thinking about it.

"Do you think you, a fool who would join the Salvation Alliance, knows how to work for the Federation, Shadow?"

The woman speaking also slowly walked out of the crowd. She was a gloomy-looking middle-aged woman, who appeared to be a well-maintained woman in her forties, but Shadow knew that she was already close to sixty.

This woman was Shu Yun's mother, Councilor Tang Jinghong, who held the same high position as her husband.

Obviously, her words were filled with resentment over the assassination of her daughter.

Shadow smiled and said to the politicians who were truly qualified to speak with him:

"On the contrary, Ma En considered our situation.

"In fact, I was almost about to intervene when Du Jin was preparing to kill Ma En, and the reason I didn't actually go in was because Ma En and I had a telepathic conversation that you didn't even notice.

"And he asked me if he could kill Du Jin."

Obviously, he had given an affirmative answer.

Hearing this, the expressions of most of the politicians present changed, deliberately revealing their dissatisfaction with Shadow's decision, but about a third of the politicians had no expression on their faces. In Shadow's experience, this reaction was basically equivalent to having no problem.

Moreover, most of the politicians whose expressions changed were only doing so out of politeness to Tang Jinghong.

Tang Jinghong immediately questioned Shadow:

"I highly doubt whether what you are saying is true. From what I know of you, you are likely just fabricating lies to protect your own people."

Shadow said indifferently:

"Then you can apply for an investigation into me, but before you get the evidence, I advise you not to take your suspicions as truth."

What she said was indeed something she would do, but this time it really was Ma En who asked him.

Although even if Ma En hadn't done so, he would have spoken up for him in front of these politicians to suppress the matter, but this also made him aware of Ma En's decisiveness and caution. When others showed murderous intent, he didn't back down, but he also wasn't in a hurry to retaliate.

He chose to consult the opinion of a "professional." If he had said that he couldn't kill him, or couldn't kill him now, Ma En would definitely have stopped and chosen his own course of action based on the information he provided. From this point of view, he wasn't the kind of arrogant guy.

If he really wanted to recruit Ma En, seeing that he would ask him in advance would definitely make him value him more.

Tang Jinghong skipped the previous topic and then questioned:

"Don't you know that there is a Federation's Rank Ⅴ ability user behind him? He is young and doesn't think, don't you think that this might offend a Rank Ⅴ ability user, and the entire Federation will have to bear unnecessary losses because of your recklessness."

Shadow said indifferently:

"It wasn't me who killed him, and we didn't list any assassination plans for him.

"This was a friendly exchange proposed by Du Jin. Since he had already struck first, then Ma En can't be blamed for 'accidentally' killing him. Besides, he attacked our people with lethal intent first. Are you still thinking about the feelings of the criminal?

"What do you take us for? The Salvation Alliance?

"We are the Federation."

Tang Jinghong said with a sullen face:

"You know the significance of Xiaoyao to us. The valuable information behind him makes his value far exceed his combat power. We are not talking about just any Rank Ⅳ ability user, but his most valued disciple.

"Do you think the Salvation Alliance's views are more important than Xiaoyao's?"

Shadow then replied:

"I don't think it was Xiaoyao's intention for him to attack with lethal intent. If this was really instructed by him, then he would have to explain why he attacked members of the Federation. You shouldn't have forgotten, I am also a Rank Ⅴ ability user."

Tang Jinghong immediately retorted with a somewhat unreasonable attitude:

"The point is not what Xiaoyao thinks, but what you and that Salvation Alliance want to do. Who can prove that what you are saying is true? You killed Du Jin before we interrogated and investigated him. Even if you agreed, that Ma En shouldn't have suggested killing him.

"Now I already suspect what you chose him for. You seem to be putting your own interests before the Federation."

Shadow knew the reason for her anger. The Salvation Alliance had carried out an assassination before her daughter's death some time ago, and he had a minor conflict with her daughter not long ago. The combination of them would definitely attract her dislike.

I'm afraid that only the murderer who killed Tang Jinghong's daughter could divert her attention.

Given his status, he couldn't just ignore her, but he couldn't be too tough either.

After all, she had just lost her daughter.

It just so happened that the faction he was currently cooperating with was opposed to her. Shadow suspected that she might have been so tough because she knew this. Although Tang Jinghong was really sad about her daughter's death, these politicians would maintain their "professionalism" even in this situation.

Shadow said to her:

"Ms. Tang, I understand your emotions, but we are the professionals in this matter. As for your concerns about Xiaoyao, I will naturally be responsible for resolving and handling them. If you still doubt us, I won't say anything more.

"But I hope you can not affect our operation this time. Ma En's battle with Atlantis is more important than your suspicion."

The woman said with a cold face:

"This Ma En had better not embarrass us, otherwise you and he will have to accept the Federation's investigation."

Sure enough, she said this to express her dissatisfaction with his and their cooperation in recruiting Ma En.

Shadow didn't respond to her any further, then turned around and turned into a shadow, flowing out of the room, quickly passing through several corridors and dozens of rooms, and then appeared in front of Ma En, who was standing next to Du Jin's body.

"You really struck hard," Shadow said with a sigh.

Ma En said:

"At the end, his mind was a little unstable. I could sense that this guy was a little wrong. If I let him go like this, it might cause me even more trouble. He seemed to have put me on a must-kill list.

"I remember you said that they have many strange abilities. Before he died, he also had regret that he couldn't fully exert them. He felt that if he could survive, he would definitely be able to use more difficult tricks to deal with."

Du Jin felt that this friendly exchange was his chance, but in fact, if he really played dirty, Ma En might not have been able to handle it so well.

Shadow took over and said:

"But he has no chance. We really didn't misjudge you."

Ma En then said:

"Moreover, in the screams before he died, I could vaguely feel intense resentment and strands of despair permeating it, but strangely, most of these emotions were not directed at me who killed him, but at someone else."

Shadow said thoughtfully:

"I will pay attention to this."

Ma En then asked curiously:

"Will what I did cause you any trouble?"

Shadow didn't mention the questions he had just received:

"Of course not. If you hadn't taken action, I would have used my own methods to solve him, but your action will definitely be easier to explain.

"There will definitely be some discussions about this in the Federation, which will be mixed with negative comments about you, but these are normal procedures within the Federation. Even if you hear them, you don't have to take them to heart. Of course, I also said that his master is a Rank Ⅴ ability user.

"So I have to specifically resolve this problem. Before that, you'd better be careful. Before the final battle, it's best to stay in the Federation and don't run outside at will, so as to avoid accidents before I solve the problem."

Regarding his suggestion, Ma En nodded slightly:

"No problem."

This body of Shadow was still politely chatting with Ma En, while he also used shadows to roll up the shattered golden sphere, and then quietly integrated the main consciousness and shadows into the ground, and transformed into a semi-mental state, aiming at another body of his in the Eastern Federation.

Time and space began to distort in the mental vision, and then the mist that permeated the entire forest appeared in his eyes.

With squeezing and spitting, Shadow appeared outside the misty forest with Du Jin's remnants.

"Why did you come here again, Fellow Daoist?"

This time, Shadow had just stepped into the edge of Xiaoyao Daoist's mind and body when he heard Xiaoyao's greeting. As his voice sounded, the trees in front of Shadow also began to retreat to both sides, and the space was constantly changing and disordered. The ancient wooden house slowly appeared in front of him again.

Xiaoyao Daoist was sitting cross-legged outside the door in a visible position. This time, there was also a huge stove behind him, and there were also two young disciples, a man and a woman, standing respectfully behind him.

They were each holding a large cattail leaf fan, constantly fanning the pill furnace behind him under Xiaoyao's care. Shadow could feel that as they waved, something seemed to leave their bodies and drill into the furnace, and the surrounding mist seemed to be constantly flowing in and out.

"Your disciple attacked with lethal intent during the duel, and the Federation member who exchanged blows with him couldn't hold back," Shadow said as he walked inside, while controlling the shadows to isolate himself from these mists, "I'm here to talk about this."

Xiaoyao raised his hand and calculated a few times, then asked Shadow:

"Did you bring my disciple's body?"

Shadow reached into the shadows of his chest, and then took out the shattered Golden Core:

"He only has this left."

Xiaoyao shook his head with a look of pity:

"Waste, my good disciple…"

Seeing that he didn't immediately question the death of his disciple, Shadow had vaguely sensed something was wrong.

Xiaoyao waved his hand in front of him, and then the invisible mist dragged the shattered Golden Core into the furnace, and the two disciples standing behind him also accelerated the speed of waving the cattail leaf fan, as if they couldn't wait to refine their senior brother into a pill.

"Is this how you treat your disciples?" Shadow asked curiously.

Xiaoyao Daoist said:

"You barbarians just like this kind of hypocrisy. The one who is alive is my disciple, and the one who is dead is naturally just a fake pill.

"What does it have to do with my disciple?

"It's a pity that the Golden Core you brought is broken. If I use the magic to take it out completely, I can refine seven Foundation Establishment Fake Pills and twenty-three Solid Essence Pills in this furnace, what a pity, what a pity…"

Shadow asked:

"You don't seem to care about the life and death of your disciple at all?"

Xiaoyao Daoist said lightly:

"Life and death are destined, and I am not really out of the five elements, nor do I have the ability to resurrect the dead. Do I still have to cry for him for a few days and nights? The opportunities in cultivation are inherently calamities, and no one can take the calamity for him."

Shadow said with vigilance:

"Then this matter is over?"

Xiaoyao looked at him:

"Over? You killed my most valued disciple. He would have been able to complete the pill in fifty years of cultivation. As long as I feed him a few Infant Transformation Pills, he would have a 40% chance of breaking through the Nascent Soul, and then he could form a partnership with me and jointly comprehend the Xiaoyao Great Dao.

"Nascent Soul is what you call Rank Ⅴ, do you think it can be so easily forgotten?"

"Then what do you want?" Shadow narrowed his eyes, "The Federation may regard you as a guest of honor, but you'd better not expect me to be too polite to you."

Xiaoyao revealed a mysterious smile, then said:

"I want you to help me find a few suitable disciples in the mortal world, I will tell you the conditions.

"I know you have countless incarnations, this is not a difficult task for you."

Seeing that the requirements he raised were reasonable, Shadow directly agreed verbally:

"Okay."

Xiaoyao Daoist said with a smile:

"Then please go back, I still have to refine pills."

After he waited for Shadow to leave the range of the mist, he turned his head to look at his two true disciples who were already sweating profusely:

"Fan well, your little junior brother is still waiting for this furnace of pills."

After speaking, Xiaoyao revealed a distressed expression again. This little disciple of his had already wasted several top-grade Foundation Establishment Pills before entering the sect. He didn't know how many pills he would eat after he became a disciple, but he felt a bit of anticipation in his heart.

No matter how many pills he ate, it was worth it. They could never have imagined that they could find a true Outer Dao Heavenly Demon here.
