I Can See Experience Points

Chapter 96: Chapter 95: This Brat Actually Threatened Me, Lei

”BEEP BEEP!!”

After a honk, the old driver stuck his head out and said with a smile, ”My good sir, getting in?”

The ghost looked like an old madam from a historical brothel, making you want to slap him a couple of times.

But when he saw Lei Yang and Captain Su, cigarettes dangling from their mouths and looking as if they’d been turned to stone, his eyes went wide. His voice trembled on the verge of tears as he spoke.

”Sir, what did I do to displease you? Did you call the cops on me?”

While driving at night, he’d often see from afar a certain someone summon a bolt of lightning with a flick of his wrist, obliterating some troublemaking evil spirit.

If it weren’t for his Unrivaled driving skills, he figured he would’ve been casually wiped out long ago.

”You think they have the energy to arrest you?”

He Xiaotian rolled his eyes. ’These two are practically third-degree cripples. As badly injured Cleaners, they probably couldn’t even beat you in a fight!’

The old driver thought about it for a second, and it made sense.

With He Xiaotian’s power, a single casual swing would be more than enough to make him suffer the consequences.

There was no need to call for backup to gang up on him!

’Wait, this place looks like the aftermath of a huge battle.’

’Could it be that the boss called me here to silence some witnesses?’

’Holy shit!’

The old driver cried out in his heart. ’I’d rather be arrested!’

’I’m just a night-shift driver! You’re asking me to switch careers and become a hitman? That’s asking too much!’

”Sir, please don’t joke around. My frail body can’t handle this kind of stuff. At worst, I can drive you out to the middle of nowhere and we can bury them. But killing... I don’t have the guts for that.”

He Xiaotian, Lei Yang, Captain Su: ”...”

’Great, another one with an overactive imagination. How are all of you so good at making up stories in your heads?’

’Why are you guys working as Cleaners or drivers?’

’When the sun comes up, I’ll register three author accounts for you. Go write novels and get rich!’

”Alright, cut the crap and stop overthinking. Take us to Shanghai.”

As soon as he finished speaking, He Xiaotian grabbed Zhao Lei with one hand and Zhou Yun with the other, then tossed them into the trunk.

”?!”

Lei Yang and Captain Su, who were supporting Zheng Peng, just stared blankly.

’Why does he look so practiced at this?’

”What are you looking at? If I don’t put them in the trunk, where are they going to sit? It’s one car for six people, not including the driver. Or do you two want a spot in the trunk?”

The two of them immediately shook their heads like rattle drums.

”Get in.”

With that, He Xiaotian opened the passenger door and climbed in.

A Bentley sped along the G2X Expressway, its occupants silent.

”Su, those Spiritual Energy Crystals you mentioned, can you buy them with money?”

He Xiaotian broke the silence. He was planning to visit the so-called Dao Alliance in the next day or two to buy some protective Talismans and figurines for his family.

”On the black market, a single non-elemental Spiritual Energy Crystal goes for tens of millions. The rarer ones are basically priceless, with no supply. Why do you ask?” Captain Su replied.

”I’m planning to go to the Dao Alliance. What do you think I’m asking for?”

Lei Yang gave He Xiaotian a strange look and said slowly, ”Last time, after you killed the giant crocodile, why didn’t you go claim the bounty?”

”A bounty? There’s a bounty?”

Hearing this, He Xiaotian’s eyes lit up.

”You didn’t know?”

”Was I supposed to know?”

Faced with He Xiaotian’s innocent expression, Lei Yang and Captain Su were at a complete loss for words.

’If you didn’t know there was a bounty for killing the giant crocodile, why did you rush out to land the final blow?’

”How much is the bounty?”

”Ten non-elemental Spiritual Energy Crystals. Of course, you can also exchange them for CNY.”

”Later, have the old driver go with you to collect the bounty, and he can deliver it to me. By the way, since I took care of this huge mess for you, how many Spiritual Energy Crystals do you think you should give me for this time?”

The old driver’s asshole clenched. He nearly burst into tears right then and there.

’Sir, you have to think this through! I don’t know who these people really are, but they’re obviously the law enforcement of the Evil Realm!’

’You’re asking me, a ghost, to go to their headquarters and claim some so-called bounty?’

’Is that really a good idea? Shouldn’t you think about it for a second?’

’I’m not exactly a good ghost, you know. I might just pocket it for myself!’

”I’ll have to report this to my superiors. I can’t personally make you any promises,” Lei Yang said without hesitation, speaking his mind directly.

A cultivation resource like Spiritual Energy Crystals wasn’t something he had the authority to distribute.

”I hope you can ask for a bit more. After all, having to deal with you city Cleaners time and time again has left me very displeased.”

Hearing this, the faces of Lei Yang and Captain Su flushed red.

How could they not understand the meaning behind He Xiaotian’s ”displeasure”?

He was just finding a roundabout way to say that they always dropped the ball and slacked off at critical moments.

’Damn it!’

’This little bastard actually has the gall to call me out.’

The key thing was, Lei Yang couldn’t even refute it.

”Excuse me, but could you guys get me a Good Ghost Certificate?”

The old driver asked, turning his head.

He definitely couldn’t refuse the boss’s order, and he couldn’t resist going to the Evil Realm’s law enforcement department to claim a bounty.

So he might as well go along with it and try to get some kind of ID card out of the deal.

That way, if he ran into them while driving in the future, at least he wouldn’t be casually wiped out.

Lei Yang, Captain Su: ”...”

’A ”Good Ghost Certificate”? What the hell is that?!’

’How did you even think of that?’

”If you can, get him one. He’s my exclusive driver, so you could say he’s indirectly contributing to the country.”

After hearing He Xiaotian’s words, the two of them could only think of one word: headache.

How were they supposed to bring something like this up with the Vice-Minister?

They had already nearly botched the Mirror Spirit case. If they brought up something as ridiculous as a ”Good Ghost Certificate” now, wouldn’t they be demoted to cleaning toilets?

”Oh, right. When Zheng Peng wakes up, tell him to travel less at night. He should be extra careful, stay home as much as possible, and notify you Cleaners immediately if he spots anything suspicious.”

”???”

Lei Yang was completely baffled, not understanding what He Xiaotian meant.

’Why did the topic suddenly shift to Zheng Peng?’

”When I smashed the statue, the Gluttonous King said he wanted to eat me alive. But the name I gave him was Zheng Peng’s. So, for the time being, try not to send him out on field assignments. If he gets snatched by the people from the Gourmet Kitchen, I’m afraid he’ll be turned into a platter of human sashimi.”

”...”

’He did it on purpose. He must be getting revenge on Zheng Peng for slacking off.’

”I think we can probably get you some extra Spiritual Energy Crystals. And as for the Good Ghost Certificate, leave it to the two of us,” Lei Yang and Captain Su said, finally giving in after all the hints.

Just the thought of being targeted by a major boss from the netherworld, one who hated them so much his teeth itched, was terrifying.

’Oh, god!’

’So scary.’

The two of them glanced pityingly at the unconscious Zheng Peng, each sighing inwardly.

’Hopefully, the kid holds it together when he wakes up and hears he’s being targeted by the Gluttonous King. Hopefully, he won’t fall into despair.’

But being hated by a behemoth like that... anyone would be terrified, right?
