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

Sakamoto's statement is quite interesting.

The information he revealed was even more important.

From this information, He Li had already glimpsed that history might not be as simple as it is recorded in books, and that many historical records were tinged with mythology...

If it involves cultivators of Qi from the middle realm, or even immortals and gods from the upper realm, then it can be explained.

"Kurongzi once said that there is a great power who can cut off the path for those who come after him."

"But perhaps, the break wasn't so clean."

"After all, there seemed to be many Qi cultivators in the past."

"Those top Qi cultivators don't necessarily all agree with that powerful being's approach."

"So... it's possible that some Qi cultivators secretly left some passages when the powerful beings cut off the escape routes, such as the overseas immortal mountains in the Middle Realm that Xu Fu may have seen."

"Perhaps that's a passageway?"

"A passage to the Middle Realm?"

He Li pondered in his mind.

He was somewhat excited and eager to try.

In his view, if he could find the path to the Middle Realm, he could go there and hunt down all sorts of powerful monsters to quickly improve his strength.

"Most of the strange creatures come from the Middle Realm."

"It's clear that the Middle Realm must be teeming with monsters. If I went there, I'd be eating my fill!"

He pondered it with great satisfaction.

Finally, it seemed as if she suddenly remembered something.

He stared at Sakamoto and spoke again...

"There were rumors in Shanghai that if you could capture a true dragon, you could ascend to that overseas immortal mountain. What's the story behind this? Did you spread this news or was it leaked by someone else?"

When He Li asked, Sakamoto quickly shook his head: "No, no, no, that's not what we said."

"Our understanding of overseas sacred mountains is also very limited."

Even if this is indeed true...

"We have no way of knowing."

"However..." After thinking carefully, Sakamoto tentatively continued, "However, according to the clues we've gathered, regarding the rumors about the True Dragon..."

"It seems...it seems to be related to Jiang Xiong."

"We even suspect that it was Jiang Xiong who leaked this information to various forces in Shanghai."

"As for his purpose..."

"How did you get the news about him...?"

"We really didn't know that!"

"All we know is that Jiang Xiong... he must have come into contact with some powerful figures, perhaps... maybe... probably, probably those people from other dimensions..."

The information Jiang Xiong revealed? And, it's highly likely he's had contact with people from other dimensions?

Hearing this, He Li was suspicious.

He recalled what Shi Fang had mentioned in the message…

Shi Fang said that a Qi cultivator had approached him for cooperation, and mentioned that the Qi cultivator came from Shanghai. He also reminded him that those Qi cultivators might seek cooperation with other people.

Could it be that Shi Fang guessed correctly?

What are those hidden Qi cultivators in Shanghai plotting in secret, seeking cooperation with Jiang Xiong?

"Forget it, there's no point in continuing to think about it."

"We can just grab Jiang Xiong and question him later."

He shook his head, too lazy to think about it anymore.

He simply stared at Sakamoto with the mustache and asked the last question he wanted to ask...

"Jiang Xiong, where is he hiding?"

"East... East Coast!" Sakamoto added, "About ten kilometers offshore from the East Coast, there... that's where we usually conduct our transactions."

"Many precious resources and materials were secretly transported there and then moved elsewhere."

After he finished speaking, Yu Ji pressed him for more information...

"What happened to that list you mentioned before?"

"Now just say all the names."

"I can enter it!"

She knew that if she didn't speak up soon, He Li would kill these people and she wouldn't be able to get any information out of them. Sure enough, after Sakamoto, with his good memory, rattled off a number of names...

puff! ! !

He Li Ling unleashed his spiritual power, instantly crushing all the Sakura people, including Sakamoto.

"Let's go, get ready to go... huh?"

After dealing with Sakamoto and the others, He Li was about to take Yu Ji and the others to the east coast to capture them when he saw a large group of people standing in the distance before he could even make a move.

Those people were not investigators.

They were not ordinary passersby.

Judging from their clothing, they seem to come from various families and sects.

Moreover, many of them stared at He Li with sinister, resentful, and hateful eyes. If they were not afraid of He Li's strength, they probably would have started cursing or even attacked him long ago.

"It's the three major families, and the Valley of Ten Thousand Medicines..."

Perhaps he noticed He Li's gaze.

Yu Ji glanced at the group of people in the distance and spoke.

After thinking for a moment, she whispered, "You killed Fu Gang before, so the Fu family probably have designs on revenge against you. They probably came with those Yingguo people too."

"They're just a bit slow."

"They stopped there, probably because they saw you killing those Sakura people and didn't dare to come any closer."

He Li nodded slightly upon hearing this.

In an instant, he arrived in front of those martial artists, surveying the leaders who possessed considerable aura and were close to or already at the Profound Knowledge Realm, and spoke calmly...

"What? You want an explanation too?"

His voice betrayed no emotion, yet it still made the faces of the martial artists from various schools and sects present turn pale.

After all, He Li is notoriously ruthless.

He has an eccentric and unpredictable personality.

Don't be fooled by his amiable appearance now.

Who knows, he might suddenly become murderous and kill all the martial artists present; he even wiped out the Yinxian Sect, but no one thinks he wouldn't dare to do such a thing.

Thinking about the fate of the Yin Xian Sect...

The leader of Wanyao Valley was the first to speak: "Not at all, how could I dare to ask Mr. He for an explanation?"

"I just came to take a look..."

He bowed and cupped his hands, revealing an extremely humble fake smile, afraid of displeasing He Li and being killed by him. The leaders of the other forces around him were very disdainful of him.

"He is, after all, the leader of a faction."

"Besides, they're all in their seventies or eighties."

"They're actually bowing and scraping to some greenhorn?"

"Doesn't he have even the slightest bit of arrogance befitting a sect leader?"

"How embarrassing!"

They couldn't help but sneer inwardly.

But then He Li suddenly stared at them and asked, "He said he just came to take a look, what about you?"

"Of course we are too!" As soon as He Li finished asking, the leaders of those forces who had been secretly mocking the leader of Wanyao Valley bowed and clasped their hands in response to He Li with sheepish smiles.

The sect leader of Wanyao Valley sneered from the side.

"A bunch of useless trash, all they know how to do is imitate me."

His eyes darted around nervously as he was captured alive.

Then he suddenly pointed at the Fu family's martial artists and said, "They are lying, sir, don't believe them."

"I can testify that they are the lackeys of the Sakura people. On the way here, they were shouting that they would teach the adults a lesson and avenge Fu Gang."

"Look at the way they're looking at them!"

"They are all ruthless and resentful, clearly thinking they will endure it for now and seek revenge on the adults later."

"Sir, please don't let them get away!"

"As the saying goes, if you don't cut the weeds at the root, they'll grow back in the spring breeze!"

"If you give the word, my lord, my Ten Thousand Medicines Valley is willing to serve you and capture these traitorous criminals!!!"

Although the leader of Wanyao Valley was old, his voice was loud and full of energy, showing no signs of age. However, the words he spoke shocked the other martial artists present.

What is this old man doing?

Why did you suddenly start fawning over me?

Is he crazy?

They came together, does he really think He Li is stupid? Doesn't he know they're in cahoots...?

Wait a minute!

This old man... could it be that he already knew He Li wasn't so easy to fool, and that he was just trying to show his loyalty by sacrificing his own people's lives to atone for his sins?

Why should I try to please He Li to save my life?

Holy crap! How did this old man react so quickly?

Old ginger is spicier!

After a brief moment of surprise and doubt, the leaders of the other sects quickly reacted, revealing fawning expressions and eagerly saying, "We are also willing to serve you, sir!"

Upon hearing their words, the sect leader of Wanyao Valley couldn't help but turn around and glare fiercely at the group.

Why do these bastards keep mimicking human speech?

Don't they have brains?

He was somewhat annoyed that these people were stealing the credit.

However, the other sect leaders paid no attention to his fierce gaze.

They were only thinking about pleasing He Li.

Meanwhile, the martial artists from the three major families, the Lin and Liu families, have already quietly begun to retreat.

They're not stupid. With He Li's fighting strength, if they dared to make a move, they would all die here. But they're used to being "superior" and are unwilling to bow down to He Li.

So they wanted to escape.

Only the Fu family warriors stood still, listening to the traitors' attempts to use them to claim credit, their faces extremely grim, yet they dared not move a muscle out of fear of He Li…
