    Special Affairs Administration.

    Staff working in the building and arrested suspects.

    They think today's temperature is strange.

    It was a strange heat wave just a moment ago.

    So suddenly, it turned into an overwhelmingly cold feeling.

    "Hey, is the air conditioning broken?"

    "You're an idiot, there's no air conditioning in our building!"

    "What's going on with the temperature? It feels like the boss is angry!"

    "Damn, could it be an enemy attack? I said something was off three days ago. Let's get ready!"

    A staff member realized what was happening, immediately calling out to everyone to grab the weapons at hand and rush towards Lu Jiannian's office.

    The arrested suspects, however, appeared to be filled with excitement, as if their behind-the-scenes powers were coming to rescue them from the jail.

    As both sides were gathering strength and preparing for a major confrontation,

    "Halt, everyone calm down! This has nothing to do with you."

    "And that guy, if you dare to take another step forward, I'll kill you right now!"

    The sound of Pang Long suddenly resonated, followed by his figure walking out of Lu Jiannian's office. He shouted loudly to the crowd while pointing at a corner near the door.

    The crowd immediately followed Pang Long's finger and saw that near the door, a suspect with a stealthy demeanor was bending over, lifting his foot as if planning to escape amidst the chaos.

    "Alright, everyone do their own thing. Let's try to finish work early tonight."

    Seeing the situation calm down, Pang Long waved his hand and turned back into the office.

    "What's going on here? Can someone tell me what happened?"

    "Are there other people in Lu Chairman's office?"

    "I remember seeing a woman and a ghostly figure go in."

    "Wow, it's even ruffled the feathers of our two chairmen and a ghostly official! What could that woman have done?"

    "Wait a minute, I feel like I've seen that woman before. Could it be that she was here three days ago?"

    "What? The demolition demon from three days ago is back?"

    The staff were discussing in a disorganized manner.

    Unlike the chaotic scene outside, the air in the office was incredibly stagnant at that moment.

    Zhou Jiu didn't know how he had ended up in this situation.

    She was about to sign the contract happily, but the atmosphere suddenly turned tense.

    "That's right, this ghostly official is threatening you. You should know that I have a good relationship with Little Zhou. Your previous offenses can be forgiven, but if there is a repeat, I will definitely make you pay!"

    Youshi Lu was actually holding a lot of anger inside.

    Zhou Jiu is a girl who has caught the eye of the Sixth Prince.

    Even possibly the reincarnation of the Heavenly Lord of Yin.

    The heavenly lord of the Yin realm, now residing in the mortal world, is being disdained by a mere mortal.

    Who could tolerate that?

    It's only because Zhou Jiu still needs some places in the Special Affairs Administration.

    Youshi Lu doesn't mind burning this place down right now!

    "When did ghost officials become so anthropomorphic? Is it because they have become awakened ghosts?"

    Lu Jiannian seems to pay no mind to Youshi Lu's threat, examining her freely.

    "How dare you, mere mortal, question this ghost official? Who gave you the audacity to do so!"

    Youshi Lu let out a loud shout, waved his white hand, and a chain appeared from thin air, sweeping towards Lu Jiannian.

    "I've long wanted to see the tricks of a ghost official. Come on!"

    In the face of the incoming chain, Lu Jiannian slapped the table and instantaneously, a blazing inferno rose to a height of one man from his body.

    The next second, the chain flew across and immediately disappeared into the flames atop Lu Jiannian's head.

    "What the hell... What just happened? I just went out for a moment."

    Pang Long stood frozen at the door, watching the scene in front of him.

    He had only gone out to stop others from gossiping.

    It was only because he wasn't paying attention for a moment, that this room suddenly turned into a fight?

    Although he didn't know what had happened, as a civil servant, Pang Long still came to Zhou Jiu's side first and protected her.

    Or perhaps, he was controlling Zhou Jiu.

    "Zhou Nurse, although I don't know what happened, I apologize for the inconvenience."

    Regardless of the current situation, since the ghost official is Zhou Jiu's contract ghost, as long as Zhou Jiu, this spirit owner, is knocked out, the ghost official will naturally be defeated without a fight!

    Pang Long thought that and he acted accordingly.

    Although he really didn't want to bully Zhou Jiu, the little girl.

    But he couldn't just stand by and watch his friend get bullied by the ghost official.

    Taking advantage of the chain still entangled in the flames, Pang Long raised his hand and delivered a hand slash towards Zhou Jiu's nape.

    Bang!

    The slightly dull sound of a knock resounded behind Zhou Jiu.

    Youshi Lu instantly stopped fighting.

    Lu Jiannian, who was defending himself, also extinguished the flames.

    Zhou Jiu, who was confused and watching the scene, turned her head.

    She met Pang Long's astonished gaze with perfect accuracy.

    "No... wait, what? I'm saying my hand was slippery, you believe me?"

    Pang Long stared blankly at his palm.

    He is a superhuman awakening type, with enhanced strength.

    Even though he didn't want to hurt Zhou Jiu, he slightly adjusted the force.

    But this blow is definitely something a little girl can't handle.

    "You're courting death!"

    Just as Pang Long was in shock, Youshi Lu suddenly let out a loud shout.

    This was much louder than the shout she had directed at Lu Jiannian, by several orders of magnitude.

    Before, when he struck at Lu Jiannian, it was more than just an outburst of frustration. It was also to make Lu Jiannian realize the importance of Zhou Jiu and to prevent him from bothering Zhou Jiu while he was away.

    Lu Jiannian also clearly understood Youshi Lu's thoughts and collided with her a few times.

    This can be considered a mutual warning that both sides agree to.

    But now...

    "How dare he actually hit Zhou Jiu!"

    Doesn't he realize that Youshi Lu is dead?

    This is truly a case of when the uncle can bear it, but the aunt can't.

    Youshi Lu's explosive temperament was easily ignited by Pang Long.

    The ghost body swelled, and the growing evil Qi instantly surged, filling the entire office in an instant.

    Before Pang Long could react, the evil Qi enveloped him, forming tangible black hands that continuously patted at the location where Pang Long stood.

    "Stop!" Zhou Jiu shouted in a hurry.

    "Stop!" Lu Jiannian also stood up suddenly and ignited the flames.

    But their actions were still a step late.

    When Youshi Lu stopped,

    Pang Long had already taken a hard slap on his body, seven or eight times.

    After a series of loud cracks, it could be seen that Pang Long's clothes were tattered, revealing his sturdy bronze-colored skin underneath, and he looked as if he could collapse at any moment.

    "This is your lesson for hitting Little Zhou. If there is a next time, you'll die!"

    Youshi Lu, in the end, did restrain herself and didn't really take his life.
