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

The wild beast died instantly.

The one who struck and killed him was none other than Mu Lan!

Compared to He Li and Jiang Hongxian, whose consciousness merely traveled back to the present, Mu Lan, Yu Ji, and others were people whose bodies actually came to this era.

They did not experience the past, present, or future, nor the battle between the three True Lords of the Sun and Moon.

They also didn't experience the time runaway.

They came here simply because He Li, who was in He Li's Purple Mansion space, was brought to this era along with him when he traveled through time.

But precisely because of this, their abilities remained unaffected as their bodies traversed time.

They can also use their supernatural powers.

Kill that not-too-strong beast from before...

For Mu Lan and her group, it was an easy task.

However, her immense power left Ao and Retsu, who were native inhabitants, completely bewildered.

Because in the past, they had never seen anything that could kill these wild beasts so easily, not even their companions with supernatural powers could do it.

This shocked them.

But more than anything, it was curiosity.

They were eager to know why the people who had returned with Jiu and Li were so powerful.

Upon witnessing the beast being instantly annihilated by Mu Lan, Qing almost instinctively asked after regaining her senses, "What kind of power is that? How did you do that?"

"Slaying the monster so easily..."

"If we can all master this power, we will no longer fear the threat of monsters and evil spirits."

As soon as he finished speaking, He Li, Mu Lan, and the others' expressions darkened, realizing that something was amiss.

Mu Lan possesses the power of the future.

Her power was witnessed by the indigenous people of the past, which may influence them and make them ponder the source of Mu Lan's power and how to possess it.

It's fine if they haven't figured it out yet.

But what if they actually figure it out?

It should be noted that what Mu Lan used just now was not her supernatural power, but a piercing attack that combined martial arts with the power of the demon core of Dingfeng Xian, resulting in extremely destructive power.

The demon core of the Wind-Stabilizing Immortal...

That thing is born from cultivation, and martial arts power is also achieved through cultivation to improve oneself.

So, although the probability is very small...

However, these two traceable forces could indeed be figured out by the natives of this era, which is why He Li and the others looked off when they heard Qing's words.

After all, this event had a significant impact on history.

As for He Li's spiritual thoughts? That thing is a strange ability, or you could say it's a strange supernatural power.

This thing can be easily fooled with supernatural powers, so He Li used it without restraint.

Mu Lan is now starting to regret it.

"Too hasty!" she sighed inwardly.

She had only acted instinctively because she saw that He Li's strength seemed to be weakening and she was worried that something might happen to him. Now that she thought about it, He Li was quite calm at the time, so he must have had a backup plan.

Her intervention was somewhat unnecessary.

But there's no use thinking about it now. Since we've already made the move, we can only try to gloss over it.

So, after a brief eye contact with He Li...

He Li responded on Mu Lan's behalf: "Supernatural power!"

"That's her supernatural power!"

He Li could only bite the bullet and say that. Regardless of whether Qing Yu Lie and the others noticed anything different, the most important thing for now was to fool them and not let them think too much.

However, He Li ultimately underestimated the keen perception of power among the beings of this era.

When He Li said it was supernatural power...

It was clear that Qing and Lie, who had just gotten up from the ground, had a hint of suspicion in their eyes, and they obviously had some doubts about Mu Lan's power.

Fortunately, perhaps it's because He Li and Jiang Hong's current bodies are familiar to them.

So they didn't investigate further.

At least, no one is asking any more questions now.

Qing simply nodded: "Supernatural powers? Alright, let's carry this monster back to the settlement first."

"Also, Tou... you need to tell us clearly what happened between you and Li. The elders of the clan are very worried about your long absence."

"And the people around you..."

Are they from another tribe?

"You'll all have to explain this clearly when you get back, because the tribe won't allow strangers to come in."

A settlement? A clan elder?

It sounds like these ancient indigenous groups are similar to the tribe of Yu Qingge.

That's normal, since this place seems to have been the Shuzhou before the separation of heaven and earth, and the people living here are the ancestors of the five tribes of the future Shuzhou.

The internal structure of the Shuzhou tribes in the future...

It might just be passed down from generation to generation.

With these thoughts in mind, He Li nodded in response and, on the way back to the settlement with Qing and the others, he didn't forget to ask them about many things related to this era.

Anyway, in his current state, it can be said that he has forgotten many things and wants to learn about them again.

And so, from Qing and Lie's mouths...

He Li finally gained some understanding of this era.

According to Qing, the True Lord of Sun and Moon Myriad Laws of this era seems to have brought back future techniques, and those techniques have begun to spread in other regions.

However, its reach is not wide yet, and specific cultivation methods and other related information have not been transmitted here.

The reason Qing and the others knew...

That's because traveling merchants had mentioned these rumors when they visited their settlement.

Besides these, there are also innate deities that people generally worship, even though magic and other such powers are not widespread in this era, such as the sacred tree worshipped by the people of Shuzhou...

Of course, there are also the Golden Crows and the like.

These deities would occasionally grant power to their followers or appear to protect them.

Because in this era, although there are no monsters or calamities to threaten us, there are many ferocious monsters and evil spirits. The former are wild beasts that absorb spiritual energy and become incredibly powerful.

Some of the rare demonic beasts have even awakened supernatural powers, their combat strength enough to destroy a settlement.

And evil spirits are not necessarily strange or bizarre.

Evil spirits are simply creatures that, for various reasons, have not entered the Netherworld or the Heavenly Demon Court, and have become abnormal, frequently affecting the souls and consciousness of living beings.

Of course, although most of them are these...

However, evil spirits also include other things, such as abnormal monsters or bad things born from evil supernatural powers; these things are just collectively called evil spirits.

Finally, there are the native inhabitants of this era, although the vast majority of them have not yet mastered magic and cultivation methods...

However, the people of this era live in an environment where spiritual energy is extremely abundant and spiritual plants and rare treasures are everywhere. They also frequently consume the flesh and blood of demonic beasts that contain ample spiritual energy...

Therefore, they are naturally physically strong.

Even without cultivation, their combat power was comparable to that of martial artists in the Profound Knowledge Realm of later generations.

This is roughly the situation of this era.

However, it is worth noting that...

Qing and Lie mentioned that the indigenous body that He Li and Jiang Hongxian possessed, which allowed their consciousness to overlap across time, seemed to be not an ordinary indigenous person but a special existence...

"Even though you said you don't remember things from before."

"But as the strongest people in the settlement, you should still possess certain inherent qualities."

All I heard Qing say was that.

He Li asked suspiciously, "What trait?"

"We worship Heaven to expel evil!" Lie, who had almost fully recovered due to his strong physique, responded from behind and continued, "You were able to expel evil spirits and monsters before."

"That doesn't seem to be supernatural power."

"You yourself don't know either, but you told us that it might be related to the heavens and the earth."

"So you once called on us to worship the heavens and the sacred tree through sacrifices and other means, and you always liked to go to deserted places alone day and night to sit quietly and sleep soundly."

"We don't know what you're doing either."

"But you are different from ordinary people."

"You can expel evil spirits, and you also possess even greater power to drive away those demonic beasts..."

As Lie said this, Qing and the others nodded in agreement.

He Li frowned slightly upon hearing this.

A lot of information flashed through his mind.

Such as shamans, priests, and even feng shui masters.

Because this era is too early, so early that the legendary deities like Fangxiangshi only appeared recently in this era, or rather... their specific forms originated from this era.

This made He Li suspicious...

Does his body still bear the mission of bringing shamans, priests, and fangxiangshi to life?

If not, then so be it.

If his body truly has this mission...

If he fails to complete it, who knows what kind of huge impact it will have on future generations? So, He Li is now a bit of a headache and doesn't know what to do next.

Even if he knew he had a mission, he didn't know how to complete it...

"This is a huge problem!"
