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

Yu Ji's analysis makes a lot of sense.

Unfortunately, there are too few clues available so far.

Therefore, it's difficult to guess the purpose of the person behind it all.

If you can't guess, then don't guess.

"As long as we keep following the clues and getting to the bottom of things, we'll know everything once we catch him."

Why make things difficult for yourself now?

In the car, He Li spoke with a smile, and Yu Ji, who was next to him, thought about it and agreed, so he didn't say anything more.

At the same time, vehicles drove up to the medicinal herb planting base in Pingshan County...

"Are you sure this is the place?"

Peng Chuan's voice could be heard coming from inside the SUV.

Liu Mengyao nodded beside her.

"We've confirmed the information from Tianyan. Yes, the intelligence He Li and his team obtained is from this place."

"He's on his way now."

At this point, Liu Mengyao looked at Peng Chuan beside her with a vengeful tone: "Let's do it. We'll just say we were passing by and saw something was off..."

That's why we went in and discovered the problem.

"As long as we successfully deal with the criminals inside..."

"The bureau can't really say anything."

As she said this, the corners of her mouth turned up.

"Once we achieve this great feat, we'll likely all be promoted to investigator level again."

"As for why He Li might retaliate against us later?"

"We can just apply for a transfer."

"When the time comes, he'll be helpless against us and will probably just be left there in a helpless rage, right? Hehe~ I'm really looking forward to seeing his frustrated and helpless expression."

As she spoke, Peng Chuan nodded slightly.

Liu Mengyao, engrossed in her excited daydreams, failed to notice the mocking glint in Peng Chuan's eyes...

"Hmph, you bitch!"

"You don't actually think I'm going to take you with me, do you?"

He sneered inwardly.

He had already heard about Liu Mengyao's visit to He Li and was quite annoyed by it.

After all, Liu Mengyao is his girlfriend.

This incident caused everyone to look at him differently.

However, he did not immediately break off relations.

Peng Chuan is looking for an opportunity to take revenge.

He not only wanted to take revenge on Liu Mengyao, but also wanted to make the culprit He Li suffer. Coincidentally, he had previously received a mission to come to Pingshan County with Liu Mengyao to handle a task.

On his way back, he unexpectedly learned the following while chatting with his temporary teammate from the Sky Eye surveillance system...

He Li is investigating a major case.

And their final destination was the Pingshan planting base.

Isn't this a great opportunity?

"Hmph, once I take over this planting base, I'll definitely be promoted to a higher-level investigator."

"It will be easier for me to find new teammates then."

"As for Liu Mengyao? Get as far away from her as possible."

"You really think I'll take you along?"

"Of course, if the bureau investigates later, I can also blame Liu Mengyao, saying that she held a grudge against He Li and instigated me to steal the credit. Anyway, I won't suffer any loss."

Thinking this, Peng Chuan opened the car door.

Filled with anticipation of achieving great merit, the two, each harboring their own ulterior motives, headed towards the brightly lit base building.

But as soon as we entered the building...

Whoosh! Accompanied by the sound, a flash of cold light appeared.

Peng Chuan sensed danger and quickly dodged to the side.

Snap! The next second, the sword, entangled in blood-red threads, slashed across his face, cutting open the building's door. The sword was then pulled back into the attacker's hand by the blood threads.

Immediately afterwards, a figure appeared in the corridor ahead. The figure approached with a sword drawn, speaking in a low voice...

"The Special Affairs Bureau's dogs arrived unexpectedly quickly."

"Hmph, one man and one woman..."

"Judging from the information coming from above, you two must be He Li and Yu Ji?"

"You've ruined our plans, you've got some nerve."

Stopping five meters in front of Peng Chuan and his companion, the man pointed his sword at them, his eyes filled with murderous intent: "If we had come later, you might not have run into me, since we were making an emergency evacuation."

"That way you might have been able to save your lives, but who knew you'd be so reckless?"

"They arrived so quickly?"

"In that case, before we evacuate..."

"I will send you on your way, which can be considered... avenging Master Ma and the others!!!"

After he finished speaking, the man moved.

Whoosh! In an instant, he was in front of Peng Chuan, brandishing his gleaming sword to cut off Peng Chuan's head. The latter vaguely saw the veins on the man's arm glowing slightly.

"Spiritual Qi circulates through the meridians!!!"

"A martial artist who has reached the Opening Meridian Realm!!!"

With a trembling voice, Peng Chuan raised his hand to parry, his skin gleaming with a silvery-gray metallic sheen.

when!!!

The next moment, the sword struck his hand.

Sparks flew as Peng Chuan staggered backward.

His hands were cut open and bleeding profusely.

The swordsman frowned upon seeing this.

"So weak? Yet he managed to kill Master Ma?"

He muttered to himself, while Liu Mengyao was completely dumbfounded.

"Chuan...Brother Chuan..."

Her voice trembled, and she seemed somewhat dazed, as if she hadn't expected that even a Spirit-level investigator like Peng Chuan couldn't withstand a single sword strike from the enemy. This made her realize that they seemed to have done something foolish that could cost them their lives.

Cold sweat dripped down her forehead.

Startled, Peng Chuan saw her staring blankly and roared angrily, "What the hell are you looking at?!"

"Attack! Unleash your supernatural powers!!!"

"Otherwise, we'll all be fucking dead here!!!"

"Huh? Oh... Oh oh!"

Hearing the roar, Liu Mengyao barely came to her senses and hurriedly retreated, reaching out to touch the ground. Instantly, the ground beneath the swordsman's feet began to twist and turn into mud.

Caught off guard, the swordsman's feet were bound, but he broke free in less than two seconds.

"That's it? It's trash!"

After mocking him, the man swung his sword again...

Peng Chuan and his companion were no match for this man, after all, Peng Chuan's martial arts realm was only at the Opening Realm.

The reason he's a Spirit-level Investigator...

It's because he has extraordinary supernatural powers.

But he can't win against a powerful martial artist.

Just like now...

They could only desperately defend themselves and flee in panic as the swordsman attacked them.

The swordsman was like a cat playing with a mouse.

With each sword strike, he hacked the two men into bloody messes.

Yet he avoided vital points with every strike, inflicting mad torment.

Meanwhile, not far from the base...

"Brother Li, we're almost there... huh?"

"Brother Li, look ahead!"

"Isn't that... Peng Chuan and Liu Mengyao?"

As soon as He Li's car arrived near the destination, the sharp-eyed Yu Ji spotted and recognized the two somewhat familiar figures rushing out of the building entrance.

He Li looked up when he heard this.

He saw the once beautiful Liu Mengyao, now covered in blood and her right arm was gone.

Peng Chuan next to her looked like he was being slowly tortured to death.

His body was covered in blood and flesh, torn and mangled...

Fortunately, he has the ability to metallize his skin.

Otherwise, if someone else had been slashed like that, they would have died on the spot long ago. Of course, as He Li's car continued forward, blocking their path...

The two men also saw He Li inside the car.

Their expressions suddenly became fascinating.

He Li saw on their faces the joy of salvation, resentment, sneers, annoyance, and a little bit of inexplicable resentment.

However, He Li didn't pay much attention to it.

He only opened the car door.

But just then, Liu Mengyao screamed...

"What reason do you have? He's the one who's unreasonable!!!"

Huh? He Li looked puzzled.

"Yes, He Li is here. What's wrong?"

He scratched his head and asked suspiciously.

Immediately, a cold glint of light shot straight toward He Li's face from not far away, but before the light could get close, He Li casually flicked a blood-red thread that wrapped around the stone lion at the intersection and hurled it at it...

Bang! ! !

Suddenly, a dull thud was heard, and the black figure who had swung his sword was smashed to pieces by the stone lion, sword and all.

"What the hell?"

"Attack me on sight? You have absolutely no manners!"

He Li curled his lip as he retrieved the bloodline.

Liu Mengyao and Peng Chuan were both completely dumbfounded.

"No...no...he's dead already???"

Peng Chuan spoke subconsciously.

He Li frowned upon hearing this: "Otherwise what? Can't you just swat this kind of weakling to death with your bare hands?"

"Is it difficult to deal with him?"

A noob? Anyone with hands can do it? ???

Peng Chuan and Liu Mengyao looked utterly aggrieved.

Is this even human language?

"A weakling? That's a martial artist at the Opening Meridian Realm. He already possesses at least a thousand jin of strength, plus he's a parasite with some boosts from the blood worms..."

It also has the ability to enhance strength by channeling spiritual energy through the meridians...

This being's combat power is already comparable to the best among the Spirit-level investigators.

Now you're saying this kind of person is a noob?

Then Peng Chuan and Liu Mengyao are not as good as this person.

What are they anyway?

Is he the worst of the worst?

Thinking of the insults He Li had given them, Peng Chuan and Liu Mengyao couldn't respond or say anything, especially since the sword-wielding warrior's mangled corpse was still there.

However, they dared not say anything.

He Li asked a question that sent chills down their spines...

"By the way, what are you doing here?"

"Could they be here to steal the credit?"

"Probably not?"

He Li asked, squinting his eyes.

Meeting his cold, indifferent eyes, Peng Chuan and Liu Mengyao, already severely injured and weak, felt their hearts pound and broke out in a cold sweat, freezing on the spot, afraid to utter a sound...
