Soul Trigger

Chapter 139 Blood Ceremony (I)

When Ji Li saw such a large wedding car on the way here, he had some guesses in his mind.

Now that we have learned about the situation in the jurisdiction, our guess is basically true:
This place should be where the tycoon’s engagement ceremony took place yesterday.

On the way here, he scanned the surroundings with his previously enhanced perception and detected a lot of moving spiritual reactions around him, which should be the work of the lord of this place.

Judging from the density, the security is quite strict. There is also a local tyrant holding an engagement banquet here, and half of the entire Luomin District has been booked.

But what a coincidence, how did Pei Taiyu come to this place?
"How far have you talked with him?"

“The other party wants our jurisdiction to intervene in the application.”

Yan Xiyu spoke in a dry voice, staring at Ji Li.

The main reason was that she didn't expect Ji Li to be a district lord, and a district lord who could be sent invitations. She didn't know the specific situation, but at least he looked like a well-known gangster boss.

The kind that usually requires handing over silver bracelets.

The Special Management Bureau was forced to recognize the jurisdiction system of Shan Street. In Yan Xiyu's opinion, this was completely a modern feudal system. She didn't care whether Silla was split or not, but it would definitely do more harm than good to the Special Management Bureau and public affairs.

Moreover, it was not a real feudal system, but a system in which bandits occupied the mountains and ruled as kings. In her opinion, it was a pure evil force that disturbed public order.

So in Yan Xiyu's eyes, in addition to the titles of "high-quality talent" and "sex-hungry ghost" on Ji Li's head, now another title of "bandit leader" is about to jump out.

Ji Li of course didn't know what Yan Xiyu was thinking. He took the invitation back from her and walked her forward to hand it to the man in the black suit who was leading the group:
"I'm coming to the party."

After seeing the female agent he had just recruited come back, the man in the black suit was stunned by Ji Li's young face, but he didn't even look at the invitation in his hand:

"Everyone, we don't mean to make your work difficult on purpose. Please go back before we apply for a jurisdiction intervention order..."

"I said I was coming to the party."

Ji Li opened the invitation and saw the contents. The man in the black suit was stunned:
"Who are you……?!"

He was about to deny it, but then he seemed to think of something:
"Special Investigation Division?"

An uncertain look flashed across his eyes. He asked the two to wait for a moment, went to the back and asked for instructions on the intercom. Then he walked forward with a relieved look:
"Mr. Black Goat, the 'Dog King' didn't expect you to come to the banquet. We are negligent. Please come in..."

Ji Li glanced at Yan Xiyu, who spat and turned away.

One was that she was unhappy with the existence of the "jurisdiction", and the other was that she was still a little sulky about what happened before.

But as soon as the two of them walked forward, the man in the black suit raised his hand to stop them:

"It can only be you..."

Ji Li chuckled, and while Yan Xiyu was about to explode, he directly put his arm around her flexible waist. The eyes of Yan Xiyu's agents behind him almost popped out of their bladders:

"Why, I can't bring a partner? You guys have to dance at this kind of occasion, right?"

The man in the black suit suddenly looked depressed:
"Sir, please don't make it difficult for us... Your clothes don't fit..."

He only felt his neck tighten and he flew into the air. Amid the uproar from all directions, he quickly raised his hands to stop the dangerous behavior of the others behind him.

The bone claws with spiritual fire rising from them lifted him up high like a child and dragged him in front of them:
"We are not here for the rich guys that your boss licks. I don't have time to waste on you. I want to bring a female companion in with me. Just this one. The others will stay outside."

"Okay, then let us in. If not, don't blame me for ruining your boss's plans."

Then he pushed suddenly, and the man in the black suit slid backwards several meters. He was able to stop with the help of his men, and his clothes became a lot messy in an instant.

He hurriedly raised his hand to stop the dissatisfied voices and behaviors around him, pulled his hem, walked forward quickly and posed:
"…Sorry, I overstepped my bounds. You…and your 'female companion' can go in…"

It's a very simple truth. I follow your rules to give you face, but you'd better not take advantage of me.

Although Ji Li did not have a deep understanding of the mechanism of the jurisdiction, on the surface, he and the other party's master were of the same status, and as a watchdog, he should not take himself too seriously -

Obviously the other party also knows the current situation.

Ji Li smiled and withdrew his hands. The bone claws turned back into leather gloves of the agent's uniform. He looked at Yan Xiyu, and the two walked in.

The cool girl made a gesture behind her, and the guy with glasses and others behind her understood it immediately.

Just looking at Ji Li's hand around his boss' waist, there was still a trace of horror in his eyes:
"(Whispering) Will Captain Yan fight him in there later..."

"(Whispering) It's hard to say, after all, it's for Taewoo...ah..."

……

Luomin District is the largest wealthy residential area and high-consumption place in Aurora City, with villas, luxury cars, clubs, golf courses...

Although there is a villa area here, there are many houses owned by chaebols, and they come to Luomin District mainly for consumption.

For example, the high-end community that Ji Li and Yan Xiyu entered had a very large space with an entire interior designed with Silla palace-level garden design and modern aesthetics.

The whole place looks more like a luxury resort than a residential area.

The sounds of men and women playing could be heard from the swimming pool not far away. "The spiritual essence derivatives around reacted a lot. It is indeed the 'Dog King'."

Walking in the garden with Yan Xiyu, Ji Li's soul trigger swept the surroundings and detected the previous spiritual reaction again.

Then a husky that looked like a saber-toothed tiger walked by not far away, with a hint of ferocity mixed in the clear wisdom in its blue eyes.

"This must be the arrangement of the 'Dog Feeding King'..."

Ji Li thought that the chaebol had a reason for choosing a particular area to hold the party.

After all, none of the chaebols in Silla are clean. They chose this place probably to cooperate with the lords of this area and do not want the kind of "uninvited guests" they don't want to see to appear.

For example, prosecutors in the judicial system, or people from the Special Management Bureau.

So the meaning of Ji Li's words to the man in the black suit just now was very simple:
Don't force the Special Management Bureau to ruin the good things between your boss and the chaebol. I give you face, but you should know when to advance and when to retreat and be flexible.

"I don't care how many nicknames you give that idiot...but when are you going to take your pig's trotters away?"

Ji Li turned his head and saw Yan Xiyu staring at him with gritted teeth, his leather gloves creaking from being clenched by his hard fists.

"Hmm? So you care about such a small matter? You have to do the whole thing..."

"Fuck you, if you touch me again I'll kill you!"

Yan Xiyu said viciously and shook off Ji Li's hand.

Ji Li secretly thought it was a pity.

Although the cool girl's waist is not that soft and elastic, it is tight and well-built, and her well-trained body gives off a resilient feeling like a female leopard.

"If there are only two of us, we may not have enough manpower. The Luomin District is quite large."

Although he was unhappy, Yan Xiyu still took out his phone and opened the hidden network map, with a hint of anxiety in his eyes:

"This idiot made such a big fuss about his engagement. It might be hard for us to find Tae-woo if they're around..."

"If it's just the entire Luomin District, my informant should be useful. It will be here soon."

Yan Xiyu sighed and lowered his eyes:

"To be honest, I don't know why Taiyu escaped from the hospital and ran here alone. According to our inference, he should be fine... Why did he..."

"So what's the situation at the hospital?"

Yan Xiyu's eyes flashed: "...There are evil spirits everywhere."

Ji Li raised his eyebrows: "Corruption? What is his awakening aura?"

In order to corrupt a person, besides strong evil erosion, the only possibility is the awakening of spiritual light through destruction.

"It's love."

Yan Xiyu rubbed his forehead, and Ji Li was stunned for a moment——

love?

The Ascension Protocol retrieved the keywords, and a large number of logical frames began to be generated and spliced, and several possible logical chains were clearly presented in front of Ji Li.

Ji Li suddenly looked at Yan Xiyu:
"Bae Tae-woo mentioned his engagement date before...when is it?"

Yan Xiyu was deep in thought and didn't expect Ji Li to suddenly mention this. He frowned and thought for a while before saying:

"I can't remember the exact date, but it should be about half a week or a week before the pilgrimage day."

New clues were captured by the Ascension Protocol and added to the logic grid, and several new logic chains emerged.

After finally selecting the one with the highest probability, Ji Li suddenly grinned. To be honest, he had not thought of this possibility before:

"If that's the case... then the situation might be a little bad. Pei Taiyu is hiding deeper than we thought..."

"How can this be..."

"Help!!!"

A familiar voice echoed in the ears of the two men. When they looked in the direction of the voice, they saw a silver figure surrounded by several men in black suits walking towards them.

The man surrounded by the crowd was wearing a silver twill suit and red sunglasses. He waved to the two of them naturally.

The cry for help came from the plastic takeout cage held by his subordinate next to him.

"Lao Da! Help! Your most adorable puppy is about to be put into the pot!"
