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

"This is... a wolf?"

"How could there be such a big wolf?"

"And it even has cow horns?"

"Alternate dimension creatures are indeed strange and unusual."

As the crowd discussed the matter, the shadowy figure's face was revealed.

It was a wolf with horns growing from its head, dull gray fur, and an extremely large size. This thing looked less like a monster and more like a beast from another dimension.

As expected, Yu Ji confirmed this.

"I just tried scanning it; the Special Bureau's database has information on this creature."

"Horned Wolf, no special abilities."

"Not a monster, confirmed to be a beast from another dimension."

"However... its meat is very delicious."

"The Special Bureau's data also notes that eating its flesh and blood is very beneficial for martial artists to enhance their physique!" Yu Ji read out the information while scanning the dying horned wolf.

He Li found this very interesting.

Are all extradimensional beings this strange?

He couldn't help but ask.

"Almost!" Yu Ji replied.

"After all, the spiritual energy in other dimensions is incredibly abundant, and the spiritual energy of our Blue Star all originates from other dimensions."

"Nourished by that rich spiritual energy, even ordinary wild beasts would become stronger, and large beasts like the horned wolf are undoubtedly the best proof of that."

He Li nodded as she explained.

His gaze was fixed on the horned wolf...

After thinking for a moment, he suddenly activated his supernatural powers, rushed up and grabbed the horned wolf, giving it a good gnaw.

His supernatural powers can devour monsters.

He wasn't sure if he could devour the horned wolf.

So he decided to give it a try.

Seeing He Liru devour the horned wolf like a wild beast, tearing its flesh apart and chewing up even the bones, and swallowing it whole in just half a minute...

Only some bones and debris remained in the place...

Yu Ji and the others were dumbfounded, while the other martial artists from various sects present turned pale.

"He...really ate it???"

"Eating it raw? Is this even human?"

"Isn't this...isn't this exactly like a wild beast?"

"Holy crap! This is so bloody and disgusting... Ugh..."

"Wait, didn't they say he only eats monsters?"

"Why do other creatures eat it too?"

"Then...would he eat people?"

"Stop talking, I'm starting to get scared..."

The martial artists trembled with fear. Even seasoned warriors like Tang Hao and Jiang Hai felt uncomfortable watching this, let alone inexperienced juniors like Tang Can and Jiang Mingyue.

However, He Li doesn't care about what others think.

He only cares about the profits from devouring.

"I didn't gain any abilities, but..."

"I've digested the spiritual energy within the horned wolf, and I feel my strength and physique have improved..."

Feeling the explosive surge of spiritual energy within his body, He Li clenched his fist slightly and smiled. It seemed that these extradimensional beasts could also bring him some benefits.

Yu Ji, standing nearby, noticed He Li's grinning face.

I guessed he must have gained something from it.

"This kind of wild animal is kept in captivity by the Special Bureau."

"The purpose was originally to provide food for martial artists."

"After you leave, if you need anything, I can help you apply to the higher-ups."

Yu Ji moved closer and spoke.

He Li snapped out of his daze upon hearing this and shook his head.

"We'll see when the time comes!"

"Let's go, let's keep going and see. Maybe there are many more similar beasts or... monsters!"

Having said that, He Li strode forward.

Seeing this, the others quickly followed.

To He Li's surprise, they had been walking for half an hour and still hadn't left the forest, and the animals they encountered along the way were mostly wild beasts, with nothing strange or unusual.

Although many plants with spiritual energy have been discovered, they are mostly plants with very limited effects.

Everyone was disappointed, but He Li didn't care.

Anyway, he ate all the wild animals.

His spiritual energy is growing rapidly, and he is now showing signs of opening up his third extraordinary meridian.

Of course, He Li's brutal killings and devouring along the way...

After overcoming the initial fear.

People are gradually getting used to it now.

In fact, the female warriors found He Li's ruthlessness and wildness even more attractive, which made Tang Can and other young people quite jealous.

"Hmph, eating raw meat and drinking blood, like savages."

"What's so great about him?"

"If I had the chance to shine, I would definitely outshine him and captivate Mingyue and the others even more..."

Tang Can couldn't help but mutter to himself.

But he immediately realized what was happening.

"Wait, right, anyway, the wild animals we encounter on the road are not very dangerous. If He Li can kill them, then I can easily kill them too."

"Although I am not as strong as him, I am still a martial artist at the peak of the Meridian Opening Realm."

"Martial arts skills can make up for a lack of strength."

"Then you'll see my dashing performance..."

"And then compare that to He Li's primitive, blood-drinking lifestyle..."

"Any normal person, like Mingyue and the others, would definitely prefer me to him, no matter what!"

Tang Can thought about it more and more and it seemed feasible.

Suddenly, he picked up his sword and walked to the front.

Tang Hao saw through his thoughts but didn't care.

After all, in his view, even if there was danger, he, a martial artist of the Profound Realm, could save Tang Can.

He Li saw Tang Can overtake him and walk ahead as if she intended to make way, but he didn't stop her because he vaguely felt that something was not quite right.

Yu Ji and the others seemed to have noticed it as well.

"Be careful, something's wrong."

Yu Ji whispered.

"Normally, changes in spatial anomalies often trigger a series of chain reactions."

"For example, a brief surge of spiritual energy at an anomaly point."

"These situations often lead to the monsters becoming more violent or stronger due to absorbing a large amount of spiritual energy, and many beasts from other dimensions will even mutate into monsters."

"With such a significant change in the size of the cave, it should theoretically be even more dangerous this time."

"There will be even more monsters."

"But we haven't run into each other for so long..."

"This...there's definitely something wrong!"

He Li nodded upon hearing this.

"I also have a feeling that something is wrong."

As he spoke, he looked at Tang Can's back and laughed, "It's best to have a simpleton clear the way at this time. If something really goes wrong, we'll have enough time to react."

"Yes!" Yu Ji agreed with a smile.

At the same time, wild beasts appeared again ahead...

It was a carnivorous rabbit with a mouthful of fangs.

The rabbit charged forward, but Tang Can swiftly swung his sword, aiming for its head...

*Pfft!* *Smack!*

With a sound, the rabbit's head fell to the ground.

Tang Can twirled his sword and gracefully withdrew it.

That appearance was indeed eye-catching.

Grandpa Tang Hao nodded with a satisfied smile, while Tang Can turned slightly to look at He Li, his eyes filled with smugness and provocation.

Even when He Li got closer...

He spoke softly...

"I already said that I was just unprepared before, which is why you were able to ambush me."

"If it really comes down to a fight, I'm no worse than you."

"And what you can do, I can do too!"

That's all I heard him say.

He Li smiled and nodded: "Then you're awesome!"

I look forward to your future performance!

"Hmph!" Tang Can sneered, "With me here, you won't have any more chances to show off. You won't be able to use your unconventional ways to attract attention anymore."

"Just watch closely from behind and see for yourself the countless differences between us, aside from strength!"

After saying this, Tang Can confidently shouldered his sword and left.

Not far away, some noises could be heard again.

Judging from the situation, there may be wild animals again.

Tang Can's lips curled up in a smile.

He glanced behind him at Jiang Mingyue and the others, whose attention was focused on him. He circulated his spiritual energy, raised his sword, and leaped forward, stabbing the dark figure in front of him with the most elegant posture.

Everyone assumed that the dark figure was just one of the weaker wild beasts from before and didn't take it seriously.

However, the next moment...

when!!!

The dark figure moved.

Like a bullet, it leaped up instantly and collided with the sharp sword in Tang Can's hand, producing a piercing metallic clang. Amidst the flying sparks, Tang Can, the person involved, turned pale and his pupils contracted sharply.

He sensed an irresistible force...

Oh no!!!

He could only mutter a silent cry to himself.

immediately……

Snap!

The sword shattered instantly.

Thud! Immediately afterward, Tang Can's figure flew backward and crashed into He Li's feet, even embedding himself in the ground; seeing him bleeding profusely from his mouth and nose and unable to move...

They're probably either dead or crippled.

Everyone was stunned.

Isn't it a beast that can be killed with a single sword strike?

What's going on? So brutal? Not only did he break the sword, but he also nearly killed Tang Can?

Could this be... a ghost?!

Upon hearing this, everyone was shocked.

Tang Can, half-dead, looked up at He Li above her and felt like she wanted to die...
