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

Chapter 18: Great Confucian scholars will debate the classics for me.

The wealthy people inside the hotel panicked.

Outside the hotel, He Li's face was contorted with madness.

"You're afraid to lay a hand on me?"

"Aren't you being a little too confident?"

He Li grinned maliciously and said, "Our Special Bureau takes it upon itself to eliminate monsters and criminal organizations to maintain peace in the Great Xia Dynasty. In the process, we fight against vicious monsters and criminals..."

"It is reasonable that it may occasionally cause injury or death to others."

"As for public opinion?"

"Ah, a great scholar will surely defend the classics for me!"

As he spoke, his fierce gaze swept across the surroundings...

"Anyone who dares to obstruct the investigation again... no matter who they are, they will be treated as having died unexpectedly!!!"

Those whose gaze swept over him all felt as if they were being stared at by a man-eating beast, their backs turning cold, and an overwhelming sense of fear welled up in their hearts, giving them an urge to run away.

But they hadn't even made a move yet.

He Li stared at Fan Tian and spoke again...

Answer my question.

"Speak up or you'll die!!!"

His tone was cold and ruthless, and Fan Tian had no doubt that this madman would really kill her in the street.

She was terrified, terrified to the extreme.

When faced with a ruthless, vicious madman like He Li who completely disregards public opinion and the "rules of the game," she felt nothing but fear and dared not even harbor hatred towards him anymore.

She responded hesitantly, "I..."

"Young man, that's enough!"

"Some things are better left unexamined."

Fan Tian was interrupted as soon as she spoke.

He Li frowned, only to see an elderly man with gray hair rush out of the hotel and stride towards him.

"Enough is enough? Who do you think you are?"

"You dare interrupt me?"

"Want to die?"

He Li stared at the old man with a sinister look in his eyes.

The old man's expression froze upon hearing this.

"Young man, don't be too arrogant."

His face darkened, and his eyes became hostile.

He Li sneered: "Can you call yourself a young person if you're not arrogant?"

After saying that, the old man's eyes turned fierce: "Very well, very well, young man, you really don't know the immensity of heaven and earth."

"Since that's the case, I, Ma Chen of the Xingyi School, will show you, youngster, what it means to be outmatched and to be truly powerful!" As he spoke, he fiercely swung his palm...

Whoosh! Ma Chen moved like a cheetah, and before his palm even arrived, the powerful wind from his palm had already ruffled He Li's hair.

But He Li's reaction was also quick.

Seeing Ma Chen attack, he quickly raised his leg...

"You old bastard, you're asking for it!!!"

As He Li spoke in a sinister tone, Ma Chen's pupils constricted and his expression changed drastically the instant his legs and palms collided.

"Oh no, he's the one from beyond the heavens!!!"

Thud! He was filled with terror and didn't even have time to say anything before He Li's terrifying strength broke his bones and sent him flying, crashing heavily into the hotel wall and exploding.

Seeing Ma Chen exposed and reduced to human fragments, the faces of the powerful figures in the hotel turned deathly pale...

"Mr. Ma...Mr. Ma died just like that?"

"That's a martial artist in the Qi Opening stage!!!"

"Just what level of cultivation has he reached?"

"Holy crap! When did this kind of person appear in the Special Affairs Bureau of Bacheng?"

"Stop fucking talking nonsense!"

"Run! Old Ma's already been kicked to pieces! Are you all still standing here hoping that after Fan Tian exposes herself, you'll get kicked to pieces by that little monster just like Old Ma?"

"We...we have someone backing us..."

"That kid wouldn't be that bad..."

"Stupid, hopelessly stupid!"

"That's a fucking killing machine. He wants to kill, and he doesn't care if you have connections or not!"

"You guys are dying of patience, I'm taking my leave!"

As they spoke, several portly tycoons, their foreheads covered in cold sweat, were being helped by their secretaries and hurriedly fled through the hotel's back door to other places, still shaken.

Meanwhile, outside the hotel, Fan Tian's fear intensified as she watched Ma Chen being exposed.

There's no need for He Li to press them any further.

She herself was exposing herself like wildfire, like popping beans...

"Please, don't kill me, don't kill me..."

"I was wrong, I'll tell you everything..."

"I do know Li Zhongping."

"I also contacted her, but I was just following orders from others to have her help make money. We also have a cooperative relationship with those bloodsucking parasites."

"They provide spiritual blood, and we provide the funds to purchase various medicines and build facilities to produce 'Blood Spirit Ginseng'."

"Many people have gotten involved..."

Blood Spirit Ginseng? He Li frowned.

Through his wristwatch, Yu Ji promptly offered an explanation…

"Blood Spirit Ginseng is a rare treasure of heaven and earth."

"Eating it can greatly increase one's blood and energy, rejuvenate one's appearance, prolong life, and enhance one's abilities, etc."

"Although I've never heard of artificial blood spirit ginseng."

"But she wasn't lying!"

Hearing this, He Li nodded and asked, "Where do you manufacture Blood Spirit Ginseng?"

"The medicinal herb planting base in Pingshan County is right next door."

Fan Tian dared not hide anything.

She even proactively reminded He Li: "Blood Spirit Ginseng is very important to those wealthy and powerful people, who hope to use it to restore their youthful state."

"So if you really go, you will definitely be blocked by local powerful figures and many martial artists."

"And we also have people behind us."

"Although I've never met the person who started this..."

"But they said they should also be awakened beings."

"The strangeness surrounding Li Zhongping..."

"He must have been the one who did it..."

Fan Tian kept revealing information.

She wasn't being kind; she was scared and hoped that saying more would save her life.

However, the more she talked, the more embarrassed, annoyed, and fearful those around her who had been swayed by her and had even tried to save her in a moment of impulsiveness became...

"Damn! Is she really a criminal?"

"This...this woman is too vicious!"

"She's actually taking advantage of our kindness, trying to get us to attack the officials of the Great Xia government? I don't even want to think about what terrible consequences would come if we actually did that..."

"Hilarious, isn't that because you guys are stupid?"

"Does 'just because someone is pretty' mean they're right?"

"What do you mean by 'beauty equals justice'? Stupid!"

"Fortunately, our Great Xia's law enforcement officers are capable and decisive, otherwise this criminal would have really gotten away."

"Hey, this guy seemed pretty scary before."

"The more I look at him, the more handsome he seems!"

"When someone is seen as an enemy, their ferocity is terrifying, but when they're on your side, they're considered cool?"

"When it comes to changing faces, you're the best!"

The truth came out, and the opinions changed.

He Li's ruthless image also became tall and imposing in the eyes of those passersby, but He Li had no time to care about these passersby who changed their expressions so quickly.

"Yu Ji, report what happened here."

He Li casually tossed Fan Tian aside.

"Those wealthy individuals involved in the crimes will be dealt with by other people assigned by the bureau."

"We're heading to Pingshan County right now."

"Go check on the situation with the artificial blood ginseng."

As he spoke, he got back into the car.

Don't worry about Fan Tian, ​​the Special Bureau will send someone to take her away.

As for whether she will die from her serious injuries, that's not something He Li should be concerned with.

While listening to He Li's words, Yu Ji helped change the vehicle's destination and replied, "I already reported it, and someone should be here soon."

"The Heavenly Eye Department is also paying attention to this area."

"Alright, let's go!" He Li nodded.

[Destination changed: Medicinal herb planting base in Pingshan County!]

Accompanied by the voice prompts inside the car, the car sped off.

On the way, Yu Ji began to analyze the situation...

"Judging from what Fan Tian just said, someone can simultaneously command those parasites, and even manipulate the monstrous 'money-making accomplice' that possesses Li Zhongping and uses it as a tool to make money..."

"Then contact many powerful figures and get them to play a role as the blood-generating ginseng without anyone noticing."

"There aren't many people who can accomplish something like this."

"Perhaps, that person..."

"It's the same person who possesses the bloodworm mother."

Yu Ji stared at her watch, her slender fingers manipulating the virtual keyboard as she scanned various related information while speaking. He Li also discerned a deeper meaning in her words.

"So, if we continue digging..."

"Maybe we can catch that person?"

"Even eating... the Containment Bloodworm Mother?"

Excitement gleamed in He Li's eyes.

He was very much looking forward to what he would get from eating bloodworms, since eating bloodworm mothers would produce blood-transforming threads.

How much more can his strength increase?

Of course, most importantly, if we can actually catch the Bloodline Worm Queen, which the Special Bureau has not yet dealt with, and the criminal who possesses the Worm Queen, that would be a great achievement.

At that time, you'll be brimming with merits.

He can also exchange for many pills to improve his strength.

He Li's anticipation grew stronger with each passing thought.

Yu Ji, standing beside him, nodded slightly: "Perhaps it's possible, but I have a feeling this isn't a simple matter."

"Because the parasites are found in various surrounding counties."

"If there are workshops producing Blood Spirit Ginseng in Pingshan County..."

"Are there similar places in other counties where parasites are present?"

"If there is..."

"What was that person's purpose?"

"They can't possibly digest it all themselves, can they?"

"If he's just consuming it himself, there's absolutely no need to risk going around doing things that would expose him. He could just secretly find a small place to cultivate the Blood Spirit Ginseng, wouldn't that solve the problem?"
