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

He Li looked at the group of people and smiled.

He hadn't expected them to be so good at creating entertaining content.

They even put on a show of loyalty for him?

Unfortunately, He Li showed no mercy to these shameless, reckless individuals who had just planned to collude with those from Sakura Country to harm him.

However, they need to pledge their loyalty...

That's possible; we can make use of it a little.

He Li then said with a half-smile, "Since you're so eager to deal with the Fu family and make them serve me..."

"Then what are you all standing there for?"

"Why aren't you doing it yet?"

As he spoke, he looked into the distance.

"I need to deal with Jiang Xiong now. When I return, I hope you will have taken down the entire Fu family. Also, don't let the other two major families get away with it."

"Most importantly, I need to gather all the resources that those families have collected."

"You too must contribute resources."

"Especially things that are helpful to the soul, the more you give, the more I might take care of you!"

As he spoke, the martial artists from sects such as Wanyao Valley breathed a sigh of relief and were also somewhat delighted.

In their view, since He Li was willing to accept their loyalty and let them help deal with the three major families, he probably didn't intend to settle scores with them anymore.

As for his offer of resources?

That must have been a test of them.

He'll probably have a better impression of whichever sect provides more resources and take better care of him, right?

This guy is a top genius that Kyoto has its eye on.

His fighting ability is so strong.

Having latched onto someone with status, power, and immense potential, they've already begun excitedly fantasizing about their incredibly bright future.

They were quick to respond verbally as well...

"Don't worry, we guarantee we'll handle it properly."

They spoke seriously.

He Li nodded with a smile, and then quickly flew with Yu Ji and the others to the east coast of Shanghai.

Meanwhile, martial artists from sects like Wanyao Valley were already grinning as they attacked the panicked and terrified Fu family martial artists, and even the two families that hadn't run far were also attacked...

"Are you really going to let them go?"

At this moment, Mu Lan looked up in the sky with a question in her mind.

He Li curled his lip upon hearing this.

"Let them go? That's impossible."

"What these people did is enough to warrant the death penalty."

"However, with so many people, so many businesses, and so many resources from the three major families, even if we could deal with them, we'd still have to sort through all that stuff..."

"It will probably take quite a while."

"Since those people are willing to atone for their sins, let's just let them do this job."

"Anyway... I didn't explicitly say that I would forgive them for what they did. I just said that I would take care of them after they did those things."

"As for what 'taking care of' means?"

He Li sneered.

The final interpretation rests with me.

"Their own misunderstandings led to their deaths, but that has nothing to do with me."

Huh? Are they just being used as laborers?

Waste recycling is not bad.

As they were talking, He Li arrived above the sea area that Sakamoto had mentioned, looked down at the deep blue sea below, and reached out his hand. Instantly, the seawater automatically pushed to both sides, revealing a downward passage.

Mu Lan was somewhat surprised and suspicious.

Water control? Another new capability?

She stole a couple of glances at He Li.

The latter's attention, however, was entirely focused on the underwater structures exposed as the seawater shifted...

Suddenly, a voice sounded from behind...

"You came really fast!"

Huh? He Li turned around abruptly upon hearing this, but did not see Jiang Xiong's figure. He only vaguely sensed that Jiang Xiong was nearby. It seemed that this was the supernatural power that Jiang Xiong had awakened.

"Invisibility plus teleportation? It seems it can also reduce one's presence and decrease the chance of being detected."

"This supernatural power... is quite interesting."

He Li became somewhat interested.

Yu Ji, standing beside him, frowned: "Be careful."

"Something's wrong with Jiang Xiong. I checked his records and found very little information about his supernatural abilities, and the known records don't quite match the power he's demonstrated."

"I suspect... that his supernatural powers either stem from possessing multiple special abilities."

"Or it's his supernatural power, which allows him to acquire multiple abilities to enhance himself, just like you do."

After she finished speaking, Mu Lan shook her head.

"His supernatural powers cannot grant him many abilities."

"If he could, he would have acquired countless abilities and become incredibly powerful long ago as the bureau chief, and he wouldn't be so afraid to confront He Li so easily."

"Also..." Mu Lan paused slightly.

She drew her weapon and sneered, "He's not invisible."

"Yes, he moves too fast."

"Plus, it has a special skin effect, similar to a chameleon, that blends into its surroundings..."

"This makes it completely invisible."

Whoosh! ! !

As soon as she finished speaking, Mu Lan unleashed her supernatural power, her figure vanishing instantly. Even He Li couldn't catch her. However, the sound of something being struck suddenly echoed in the surrounding void...

when!!!

With a loud bang, sparks flew everywhere.

Jiang Xiong's voice echoed around once again.

"Very well, I really underestimated your Shu Prefecture."

"Isn't it enough that you have reason to speak?"

"Another one with incredible speed..."

"Hmph, you all seem to have a lot of talent. Unfortunately, she's only fast; her strength is so weak and her cultivation level so low. How dare she think she can harm me?"

His voice was full of disdain.

Yu Ji felt somewhat helpless upon seeing this.

"In this kind of sonic combat, I can't find the target and can't coordinate with you to capture him."

"It's alright!" He Li's smile remained unchanged.

The surroundings were moving at an extremely high speed, causing Jiang Xiong, who was invisible to the naked eye, to seem to hear He Li's voice and see He Li's calm smile, and he couldn't help but speak up...

"Heh, what's the logic behind this?"

"You are truly arrogant and presumptuous!"

"I was indeed afraid of you before, and I didn't dare to fight you head-on."

"But don't you ever think about why you dare to stay here even though you know you're no match for me? Have you ever considered that I've already found a way to deal with you and kill you?"

There was a hint of amusement in his voice.

"How will you kill me? Tell me!"

He Li became somewhat curious.

Jiang Xiong laughed as before: "What? Didn't you realize anything after killing so many people?"

"Hmm?" He Li asked suspiciously.

He noticed? Noticed what? He was confused.

Jiang Xiong sneered upon seeing this: "As an investigator, you should know that Blue Star is conscious, it is alive, and it will target those who do bad things."

"So what?" He Li pursed his lips.

"Do you perhaps believe that the consciousness of Earth is targeting me? Are you trying to use this rule to kill me?"

"So what if it is?" Jiang Xiong didn't hide his true feelings.

"You killed so many martial artists from the Yinxian Sect."

"So many investigators killed again..."

"I'm afraid that just now, you also killed those powerful figures from the Sakura Kingdom whom I instigated to deal with you, the people from the three major families, and the people from sects like the Valley of Ten Thousand Medicines, right?"

Jiang Xiong sighed, "Tsk tsk, you're really amazing, to the point that you have almost no rivals."

"But you have killed countless people, which is against the principles of Heaven and Earth."

"The consciousness of Earth has definitely set its sights on you."

"Imagine the world wants to kill you..."

Do you think you can still live?

Huh? He scratched his head upon hearing this.

He has killed people, but he hasn't killed the people from the three major families and other sects yet. Most importantly... he hasn't felt anything after killing so many people so far.

Targeted by the consciousness of Earth?

I don't feel anything!

"No, how did you determine that?"

How can you be so sure I'm being targeted?

"What if I'm not being targeted?"

He Li couldn't help but press further, and Jiang Xiong sneered, "You really know nothing about the situation on Blue Star. Don't you know what those targeted criminals went through?"

"Heh, you can't really tell anything from the surface."

"But those who are targeted not only suffer a series of bad luck, but also develop all sorts of health problems."

"Their combat strength will be severely reduced."

"There's a significant chance of abnormal reactions when circulating your cultivation techniques or using supernatural powers... Never mind, it's pointless to tell you. You'll find out whether you're being targeted or not once you try!"

"Anyway, so what if you weren't being targeted?"

"Even though I can't beat you."

"But if I want to run, who can stop me?"

Jiang Xiong's tone was full of confidence.

Having said that, he seemed to have already launched an attack on He Li. Only Mu Lan, who could keep up with him, could see it clearly. She couldn't help but want to remind He Li, but she found that He Li had a mocking look on his face...
