Pokémon: Having just completed the Pokédex, I'm now traversing the world of Beast Taming.

"The Greater Bay Area is the most severely affected."

"Although it's not Jiang Province, it is indeed the most serious area in Da Wan."

"How does it feel to be the head of the law enforcement team in the Greater Bay Area?"

The king glanced at Chi Hong and asked.

"Huh? You've become the captain of the law enforcement team?" Mo Zhi was taken aback and looked at Chi Hong as well.

"What's wrong?"

Chi Hong didn't speak, but Chao Wen spoke first with a smile, "Are you afraid that Chi Hong will hold a grudge and come after you right away, using you as fodder for a promotion?"

"I'm not afraid of that." Mo Zhi shook his head, raised his wine glass and gestured to Chi Hong, saying, "Chi Hong and I can let bygones be bygones."

"That's hilarious! Do you think I don't know what kind of person he is? Let me tell you, sooner or later, Chi Hong will..."

"Hey? What are you doing?"

Chao Wen finished speaking, glanced at Chi Hong, and saw Chi Hong also raise his wine cup, gesture, and then drink it down...

So they really just let bygones be bygones?

"What happened?"

"Could it be because of that kid named Paint?"

Chao Wen looked at Shen Yuzhi, then immediately overturned his own deduction, believing that the young traditional Chinese medicine doctor did not yet have the ability to change Chi Hong's temper.

"So it really is war..."

"only....."

The old Taoist priest looked conflicted, as if there was something he was embarrassed to say.

Luo Dongjun knew what the old Taoist was thinking, of course. Since the old Taoist was unwilling to say it, she would say it herself!

"Boss, our Longhu Mountain lineage is in a terrible mess because of the ancestral ferocious beast."

"I'm afraid this time..."

"There's nothing we can do to help."

Luo Dongjun spoke frankly, directly revealing the story of how the original ferocious beast was suppressed at Longhu Mountain.

The old Taoist priest made a mistake when he was suppressing the "root" of the original ferocious beast.

Jiang Chaowen, Chi, and ink were shaken together to settle the matter.

If the old Taoist priest really goes to clear the border, what if something goes wrong at Longhu Mountain...?

The consequences could be disastrous!

"Where is your sect leader from Longhu Mountain?"

"You're just going to let an S-rank character like you handle something that could bring disaster to the world? Are you really just a hands-off manager?"

The king looked up at the ceiling, his tone still devoid of emotion, but anyone could tell that he had some reservations about the leader of Longhu Mountain.

"S-rank?"

Chi Hong keenly noticed the two words and looked at the old Taoist priest.

Good guy!

You're a master of disguise!

When we fought each other at Longhu Mountain, I really wasn't serious!

Actually, it doesn't matter if he takes it seriously; if the old Taoist priest takes it seriously, Chi Hong will slap him a few times...

"Sect Leader..." The old Taoist priest looked embarrassed and continued, "Our Sect Leader has gone to the heavens and hasn't returned yet..."

Upon hearing this, Chaowen, Chi, and Mozhi all turned serious!

Even the king lowered his head and frowned.

Chi Hong couldn't help but recall the words of that rule-breaker, Little Four-Eyes.

The real enemy comes from beyond the heavens, from beyond the realm, from another world!

But one thing is certain: the enemy is not Chi Hong.

"What kind of enemy could possibly send Old Zhang to outer space?"

"Do you Daoist sect... know about the other powerful figures?"

The king clasped his hands together and began to spin his thumbs in circles.

"There is no notification yet." The old Taoist priest said with a serious expression, "Our sect leader suspects that enemies from beyond the heavens have infiltrated our Taoist sect."

"In other words, within the Taoist sect, one must be cautious, and the only person one can truly trust is Luo Dongjun."

"Then how can you be sure that Luo Dongjun isn't from beyond the heavens?" Chi Hong raised an eyebrow and said in a gentle tone, "Or perhaps you, old Daoist, are from beyond the heavens."

"I didn't mean anything by it, I meant..."

"Has the situation really reached the point where we need to doubt our comrades?"

Chi Hong's question was very direct and extremely difficult to answer!

If outsiders have infiltrated the Taoist sects...

By the same token, then there is no one who is not a suspect!

I'm a suspect in everyone!!

"Although some beings from beyond the heavens may look just like us, there are always some differences."

"There might be scales between its eyebrows, it might not have pupils, and its heart might not be on the left side."

"In short, there is absolutely no extraterrestrial being who looks exactly like us."

"This is a difference in species..."

The old Taoist explained.

In other words, to tell if someone is an alien, just go to a bathhouse together, it's that simple!

"Then I can prove that the paint packet belongs to a local!" Chi Hong nodded and said no more.

"Depend on!!"

"Thank you so much!"

Shen Yuzhi gritted her teeth and glared at Chi Hong, recalling the painful memory of her buttocks being spread open and scrubbed by the bathhouse attendant...

"That's not how it works." The king's furrowed brows remained unchanged.

"I have intelligence."

"Extraterrestrial beings have already appeared, possessing the bodies of us Earthlings, just like in novels... possession."

"Except for his thoughts, he is no different from us."

After the king uttered those words, everyone fell silent once more...

"Sigh..." Chi sighed, "It's really hard being human. There's already the threat of ferocious beasts on the outside, beasts that threaten all of humanity!"

"If all countries had worked together, the beast incident might not have dragged on to this point today."

Chao Wen sighed, "But everyone is scheming against each other to grab territory."

"Yes," the old Taoist continued, "not only are there ferocious beasts causing trouble, but something from beyond the heavens is also eyeing us covetously..."

"Sometimes I really envy ordinary people who commute to get off work every day; they don't have to worry about these issues at all."

"Eat well and drink well, nothing else matters."

The conversation grew increasingly heavy, and the cheerful atmosphere of everyone gathered together vanished.

"There's no need to rush; take it one step at a time."

A smile suddenly appeared on the king's face as he comforted him, "The First Emperor pacified the world, leaving those beyond the borders breathless with oppression."

"Emperor Gaozu of Han slays a giant serpent from the heavens, while the Hegemon-King withstands the devastating weapon [the World-Destroying Cauldron] that descended from beyond the realm."

"Emperor Wu of Han dispatched Wei Qing and Huo Qubing, who pursued them all the way to the heavens..."

"If our ancestors could do so many things throughout history, we can do them too!"

The king's words reignited everyone's fighting spirit!

Yup!

The crisis from outside our region is not a recent phenomenon; it has existed for thousands of years!

Weren't we still defeated by our predecessors time and time again?

"If the territorial situation changes again, everyone must act immediately!"

"I will be away for a while."

The king's gaze turned serious as he began to give his instructions.

"What's the boss going to do?" Chi Hong asked.

"I want to go and find..."

"The Sword of Emperor Gaozu Who Slew the Serpent!!"

The king's voice was firm and resounding!
