Eating bizarre things in public upgrades my status; the Special Affairs Bureau wants me to join them

Can those who win the hearts of the people become gods?

He Li smiled upon reaching this conclusion.

If his conclusion is indeed true...

Then perhaps those "superior people" who go to great lengths to exploit the masses in order to gain more wealth and resources, and who desire immortality in the coming era of spiritual energy...

They'll all be dumbfounded, won't they?

After all, they never imagined that the path they were on was completely opposite to their dreams.

"I hope my conclusion is true."

"I'm kind of looking forward to seeing what expressions those so-called superior people will have when they find out the truth about becoming gods. Will they be filled with regret and resentment, or will they be in pain and despair?"

He Li laughed even harder the more he wanted to.

Meanwhile, Lin Fan and the others, who were some distance away, rushed over after the battle had stopped.

Before they got close to He Li, they vaguely saw that He Li seemed to be talking to Shi Fang, who was still alive, despite the lingering effects of the battle that had taken place nearby...

The noise was so loud that they couldn't hear clearly.

But that doesn't stop them from speculating.

For example, secrets about God?

After all, Shi Fang had said before that if He Li could defeat him, he would bring up this matter.

So, upon approaching He Li, Lin Fan, who was in the lead, could not hide the anticipation in his eyes and suppressed his excitement as he asked, "He Li, what did Shi Fang just tell you?"

"What's it to you?" He Li looked at him coldly.

Lin Fan already harbored hostility towards He Li.

His hostility only grew stronger when he didn't speak up.

However, before he could say anything, the other investigators from Shanghai couldn't help but speak up...

"What does 'what does it have to do with us' mean?"

"He Li, you can't say that!"

"Exactly! I think what Shifang just told you was about a secret of God, right? Tell me quickly, what exactly was the secret Shifang told you?"

"Yes, you can't keep anything to yourself."

"This is something that benefits all mankind; you shouldn't obstruct the path to advancement for all mankind."

"We also participated in the battle against Shifang before. Maybe he could be easily defeated by you because we already injured him, and he was just putting on a brave face?"

"So no matter what, we also contributed to your victory, so we should hear your secrets!"

"This is what we deserve..."

The group loudly questioned He Li.

Their eyes were filled with greed and excitement.

They were eager to know the secret.

In order to obtain this secret, they even went so far as to fabricate stories, claiming that He Li was able to defeat Shi Fang because they had already severely injured the Ten-Horned Dragon beforehand...

How could they say such a thing?

He Li was so angry he laughed.

However, before he could refute it...

Yu Ji, pushing his way through the crowd, coldly rebuked, "You couldn't even get close to the Ten-Horned Dragon before, and now you're claiming you deserve credit for defeating the Ten Directions?"

"Are all investigators from the Shanghai Special Affairs Bureau as shameless as you?"

"Don't forget."

Quite a few people witnessed what just happened.

"Who do you think would believe your nonsense?"

"If you continue to fabricate stories, our report will be sent to Kyoto without any leniency!"

Kyoto... Upon hearing Yu Ji's words, the investigators from Shanghai, who had been incredibly greedy and excited, suddenly calmed down as if doused with cold water, and their expressions turned ugly.

However, they remained stubborn.

They still refused to give up that secret...

"We just...we just misspoke!"

"Yes, it was a slip of the tongue, but it doesn't matter."

"The important thing is, shouldn't He Li, who possesses secrets about God, share them? Doesn't he want to see everyone in our Great Xia rise to prominence like dragons?"

"Exactly. As an investigator from Great Xia, he should disclose such secrets and report them to his superiors."

"Alright, He Li, stop holding back."

"Tell us quickly, what secret Shi Fang told you?"

"Anyway, you have to report the secret."

"We'll find out when it's announced, so since we'll find out sooner or later anyway, we might as well say it now. That way, if the secret really is a method to become a god..."

"Then we can act immediately, and our Great Xia will surely be able to give birth to gods sooner!"

"Yes, yes, hurry up..."

boom!!!

Before they could finish speaking, He Li's eyes shone with golden light, and an invisible spiritual thought swept past like a whirlwind, blasting the group of investigators who were eager to obtain the secret more than a hundred meters away.

"You dare to talk back to me?"

He coldly surveyed the Shanghai investigators who had been thrown out, their heads bleeding, limbs broken...

He Li's tone was cold and his expression was aloof.

The others were startled and hurriedly retreated.

Lin Fan's eyelids twitched wildly as well.

He really didn't expect that in front of so many investigators, he would dare to directly attack and injure all of them, leaving them so badly injured that they couldn't even get up.

Is he really so reckless? Isn't he afraid of being reported? Or of being punished by his superiors under pressure?

After all, so many investigators were injured...

If they submit a joint report and also get some powerful figures involved to put pressure on Kyoto, they'll have to take it seriously, right?

Although I was shocked.

Lin Fan retorted, "What are you doing? He Li, they're just telling the truth. No matter how selfish you are, or unwilling to share secrets, it doesn't have to be hurtful, does it?"

His words seemed to be an attempt to stand up for others.

But those words were full of malice.

He Li wasn't stupid; of course he could tell.

Yu Ji couldn't stand it any longer and glared angrily at Lin Fan: "Stop slandering me like this!"

"What do you mean he acted because he was selfish and didn't want to talk? Aren't you all going too far? Besides, when did He Li ever say he wouldn't report this secret?"

"Why would he tell you shameless trash such an important secret first?"

"What if you find out the secret..."

"What if it's detrimental to Great Xia?"

"You..." Hearing Yu Ji's words, Lin Fan was speechless for a moment, staring at Yu Ji with some shock and anger. He really didn't expect that He Li's little follower would dare to talk back to him.

He tried to calm himself down, then stared at Yu Ji and He Li with a sinister look, preparing to say something.

But before he could even speak...

He Li spoke first.

"What do you mean, 'you'?"

He Li looked at Lin Fan with disdain: "She's wrong? I'll naturally report such an important secret. You bunch of scum don't even dare to point fingers at me!"

"What? You think I can only deal with monsters and don't dare... kill you?"

As he finished speaking, He Li's tone suddenly changed, and a chilling killing intent emanated from him, enveloping Lin Fan.

The latter felt his scalp tingle and his whole body tremble.

Cold sweat dripped down his forehead.

Just now, because of God's secret and my jealousy of He Li, I forgot that this guy is a fearless person who might do anything.

If you really piss him off...

Kill those investigators from Shanghai...

He might... actually do it!

Thinking of this, Lin Fan, who saw that He Li seemed to have really decided to kill, was already sweating profusely, and the other investigators who originally wanted to agree with Lin Fan also turned pale.

Seeing that they had fallen silent, He Li sneered and turned back, transforming into a ravenous monster to devour the ten-horned dragon...

"Wait...wait a minute!!!"

Seeing He Li devour the food, Lin Fan felt a sense of fear, afraid that He Li would kill him.

But he couldn't help but say, "This...this ten-horned dragon is very important to our Magic City...no, to the entire Great Xia. You can't eat all of its corpse."

"You...you must hand it over."

"This is...this is state property."

If you continue...

Bang! ! !

Before he could finish speaking, a terrifying force that Lin Fan was completely unable to resist suddenly slapped him from the side, sending him flying hundreds of meters away like a fly being swatted.

His already seriously injured body crashed into many dilapidated houses, raising dust in the process.

He Li glanced at her out of the corner of his eye, but there was no movement for a long time...

It's unclear whether Lin Fan is dead or alive.

He glanced at the other investigators, who were even more terrified and completely unprepared for him to dare hit Lin Fan, and then said calmly, "Is it more important to Great Xia or just to you?"

"You don't think I don't know that you're trying to use the True Dragon to pursue the so-called Path of Qi Refining, do you?"

"Still handing it in? You should take a look at the investigator's handbook more often."

"This is my own spoils of war."

"I can hand it over for the sake of merit or out of good intentions, but I also have the right to take it myself."

"You even handed it in... you idiot!"

"They didn't even understand the rules!"

After saying that, he continued to devour his food.

They watched helplessly as he devoured the ten-horned dragon, and the people around him shrank back and remained silent.

Just kidding, he even dared to hit Lin Fan.

If those people open their mouths again...

Wouldn't he be slapped to death on the spot?

But what terrifying power will this guy gain from devouring the ten-horned dragon? Is there anyone in this Great Xia Dynasty who can suppress this guy's arrogance?

Doubts remained in everyone's minds.

Meanwhile, a whisper echoed in He Li's mind...
