Rong Xu had no idea how she got there.
One moment, she was playing peacemaker at a cultivation conference. The next, everything went white, and when she opened her eyes, she was standing in an ugly little grove.
The gaping wound in her leg was still there, but her spiritual power was gone.
When she left the grove, she saw iron boxes with four wheels racing down the streets, everyone holding a glowing brick, and girls with bare arms and legs wandering everywhere.
Rong Xu decided on the spot: she wasn't leaving. She would never leave in this life.
She sold a spirit stone and bought a two-hundred-square-meter mansion outright.
Milk tea, crawfish, and handsome men on the internet: life was bliss.
Until she ran out of spirit stones.
Looking for a job? Education? She had none.
Could she apply to be a Taoist priest at a temple?
They shot back, "Do you have a bachelor's degree?"
No.
Even the temple wouldn't take her.
On her way down the mountain, she angrily wolfed down three grilled sausages. Then she casually helped a young man who was giving off a gloomy aura, only to have a black car block her in the parking lot.
A handsome man got out and showed her his credentials:
"Abnormal Affairs Administration, Captain Lu Yan."
"You're very perceptive when it comes to abnormalities. Want to come work for us?"
An eight-thousand-yuan base salary, no need to work at the office, and bonuses for handling abnormalities.
Rong Xu signed on the spot.
Then came her first assignment...
An S-rank abnormality, extremely dangerous. Three teams of senior agents had already returned injured.
Rong Xu rushed into the house, heart pounding, and came face-to-face with a deathly pale face.
"Aaaah!"
"Aaaah!"
...Only after they had both finished screaming did they realize that the person across from her was an old acquaintance from the cultivation world: Old Seven.
Old Seven explained earnestly:
"Strange noises? I was playing short videos out loud."
"Furniture moving? I was mopping the floor."
"Blood by the door? Ketchup. It came with the fries."
"Burning paper offerings? I was sick of takeout and wanted a change of taste."
"Those three teams? I only chased them a little. They fell over by themselves. What does that have to do with me?"
Rong Xu turned to Lu Yan:
"Captain, I know this S-rank. How about... hiring him too?"
Lu Yan: "..."
From today on, the Abnormal Affairs Administration officially became an employment center for retired officials from the cultivation world.
Theme: All living beings are equal; prejudice is the true anomaly.
