Number One Dungeon Supplier

"When you said sightseeing, you meant… this?" Lian was speechless when Jin was standing on the rooftops of the buildings from a street away from the Colosseum. They were not exactly hiding as they sat near the stairs which allowed them to be at the rooftop. 

"Why? This is also a view of the Colosseum." Jin said as he turned Bam and Boo into a fan to cool himself down. 

"If we are here for too long, the Demon Exorcists and other officials would come and question us! Not to mention, we are here by portal! Not through official means! My passport is not with me at all!" Lian was frantic and Jin had fun seeing her being in such a mess. 

"You worry too much," Jin said as he took the fan and threw it forward. Before it could really be thrown further than a metre away, it hit something transparent and dropped. There was actually a barrier that surrounded Jin and Lian and it prevented them from being seen. 

"…You could have told me earlier that you have erected a barrier." 

"If a skilled Demon Exorcist like you could not feel the barrier then it means that my barrier works, right?" Jin smiled as he yawned a little while using his Maqi to grab back the dropped fan.

"We could have rented a room or something." 

"You already said we do not have approved passports. How do we even rent a room? And besides, you want to rent a room with me?" Jin asked which made Lian blush a little.

"What do you even mean? Don't you already have Lynn? I have nothing to offer you as compared to Lynn!" Lian wanted to shout but realised that they were in a barrier and it was best not to make too much noise. 

"And yet, we are more intimate than ever being in this barrier." Jin joked as Lian decided to keep quiet and asked whether Jin had a pair of binoculars with him. He quickly took out one out so that she would be occupied for the moment. At the same time, Jin summoned the most efficient pairs of eyes he could ever ask for. "Que Er. Looks like I need your expertise once more." 

As Jin said her name, she emerged right in front of the two cultivators and bowed towards Jin. "Master, it's been a very long time. I am grateful to still be of service to you." 

"You think I will ask the Night Foxes?" 

"Sadly, that was my sentiment as their intelligence gathering skills are definitely better than mine by a lot." Que Er said and Jin smiled. 

"I will not deny that but right now this is a more delicate situation where your magpies and the control of other birds would prove to be a safer option than those reckless foxes," Jin said as he tried to butter her up with some sweet words. "Besides, since when have you disappointed me?" 

Que Er smiled as she bowed once again and with that, emerged a variety of birds from behind her. They were already moving to optimal locations to ensure that the entire area were under her surveillance. 

"May I ask what are you looking for?" Que Er asked and Jin was very direct.

"Demon Exorcists and possible Banned Emperor Terrorists." 

"Possible Terrorists? That is practically everyone in the area." Que Er said and Jin nodded his head. 

"Check the sewers as well if your birds can do that," Jin said as he deposited a huge sum of System points into Que Er's account even before the task had officially started. She was undoubtedly startled by the amount and realised that he was not joking when he asked to monitor every single movement. "The System will aid your birds too but do not tire them out. We need to do it until midnight." 

"If I had known that's the case, I should have eaten more just now," Lian grumbled as she found that using the binoculars to look at things was a lost cause if those birds were going to be doing her job for her.

"As the Nine Tailed Fox Demon, I believed that you should be quite capable of sensing cultivators?" Jin asked and Lian did not dare to answer that question. "I will take it as a yes." Jin took out an inscription charm that had the word amplify on it and passed it to Lian. 

"I need you to be a wide range sensor. Monitor not just the area but the movement of general chi around the area. It does not matter if the emission is low. Just capture the signal and let the System do the analysis. All you have to do is to make sure you catch everything. Use the Que Er's birds as a proxy to sense things too."

"That will take a lot of chi even if I am sensing them at a very low rate of interval. I assume you want me to do this until midnight? I do not think I can handle that." Lian was more than just regretting that she had come for this trip.

"Enough with the excuses. You are a talented Demon Exorcist and make use of that talent properly. I will provide you with chi as well. Digest it properly and then emit it out slowly. Jin said as he placed his hand once again on her shoulders and she could feel the difference in power and intensity when compared to her chi. 

Lian knew there would be a difference but she never expected it to be that much of a big difference. It was as if she was standing right in front of a skyscraper. That was why even with just a small push of chi from Jin, Lian finally understood what he meant to digest it properly and put out the chi slowly and carefully. In a way, it was a type of training for her as well while she was on this mission.

As much as she hated to come alone, Lian realised that this might be an opportunity for her to grow and perhaps even catch up to the standards of Lein and Su Zhen if she was able to grasp this training properly. This would definitely be a long day for her.
