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

Plans can never keep up with changes.

The sudden war between the upper and middle realms, and the exceptionally strong actions of the upper and middle realms, shattered the plans of countless powerful and influential figures in the lower realms, leaving them with no time to plot anything bad.

They panicked at this moment, and they and the higher-ups of the Special Affairs Bureau only wanted to protect the lower realm first.

After all, it was a war launched by the upper and middle realms...

It can be held not only in Qianzhou.

Many regions around the world have begun to be attacked by both the middle and upper worlds.

Despite the fact that all nations were rallying their strongest warriors to resist, the invaders were far too powerful. The vast disparity between the two sides meant that the powerful warriors of the lower realms could not stop the enemy in the slightest.

Faced with this situation...

At this moment, most of the world's top leaders appear somewhat desperate and at a loss.

They didn't know what to do, or who could save their world.

Aside from the high-ranking officials of the Special Affairs Bureau...

Because these people know how to save themselves.

Therefore, at this moment, they have already voluntarily put aside their so-called noble status and dignity that were once inviolable, and want to find He Li in the hope that he will take action to save the world as soon as possible.

Unfortunately...

Even though they traveled at full speed, they still couldn't find He Li after arriving in Shu Prefecture.

Faced with this situation, the high-ranking officials of the Special Affairs Bureau were at a loss, unsure whether he had deliberately avoided seeing them and had left...

Jiang Qingtong appeared.

This surprised all the high-ranking officials of the Special Affairs Bureau.

Before they arrived, they had already arranged for Jiang Qingtong and others to stay in Kyoto.

Jiang Qingtong should not be here.

But she still came, accompanied by Huo Zijing, who possessed teleportation abilities; although the higher-ups had no idea what Jiang Qingtong wanted to do by disobeying orders and coming here...

But without a doubt, Jiang Qingtong's ability to arrive before them was thanks to Huo Zijin.

However, these things are not important.

The important question is whether Jiang Qingtong, who arrived earlier, actually met He Li in person.

"Jiang Qingtong? What are you doing here?"

Have you seen He Li?

"The upper and middle realms have started a war and are invading our lower realm. Does he intend to intervene and stop them?"

Suppressing his suspicions about Jiang Qingtong, Zheng Guo spoke first, asking about He Li's matter, rather than why Jiang Qingtong and the other person had disobeyed orders and suddenly come to Shuzhou...

He clearly seemed to know more about other things.

Hearing this, Jiang Qingtong nodded: "I did see him when I came here."

Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up.

But what Jiang Qingtong said next...

This made everyone turn pale.

"I know your purpose, and... that lord also knows your purpose and thoughts, and he asked me to tell you that he will not allow the war to spread."

"But he wouldn't stop the war immediately either, saying that human evil should be banished to the underworld."

Jiang Qingtong spoke calmly.

She wasn't lying; she did indeed meet He Li and receive his instructions.

And the reason she came here...

That's because she had sensed something was wrong when she was in Kyoto, and the fact that she noticed the hopes of the higher-ups in the Special Affairs Bureau made her even more suspicious.

She also had the idea of ​​coming to inform He Li about Zheng Guo and his group's original plan.

It's a pity about this idea...

Because the sudden war rendered it useless.

However, later, she received a telepathic message from Jiang Hongxian that told her many reasonable things.

And tell her to make a choice...

Is it better to remain a mortal, doing what one wants in the human world and turning into a handful of dust a hundred years later, or to fall into the underworld and become an immortal, treacherous official?

Jiang Qingtong chose the latter.

So she came; she wanted to obtain an official title before He Li could completely rebuild the Netherworld...

In this way, she could become a ghostly official.

To become an immortal individual.

When He Li met her, he had already seen through her thoughts, but He Li did not refuse, because He Li did need many cunning officials to rebuild the Netherworld.

After all, the Netherworld is so vast, and there are rules to follow, so he can't possibly do everything himself.

Deceitful officials are indispensable.

Furthermore, He Li couldn't possibly choose any ordinary consciousness to become a Ghost Official, because becoming a Ghost Official and working for him requires strength and potential.

Choosing the wrong official will not only fail to help him, but will also create more trouble for him.

Another, and even more important, point is...

A cunning official cannot bear too many sins.

Because sins need to be "washed away," one must endure the pain in the River of Oblivion to thoroughly cleanse one's sins and conscious memories before one can be reborn as a human in the future.

He Li would not allow someone burdened with too many sins to escape punishment and even gain an advantage.

The cunning official will make the choice himself.

Jiang Qingtong and Huo Zijin seemed to be among the qualified candidates, so He Li agreed and asked them to stay here to deal with the higher-ups of the Special Affairs Bureau.

This has led to the current situation.

But Zheng and his people were unaware of these things.

If they knew, they wouldn't need to oppose He Li at all; instead, they would simply have to bow down and curry favor with him...

They would have the opportunity to embark on the long-desired path to immortality in an unconventional way, and they would probably have already put aside their pride and cried out for justice.

Of course, even if they do that...

It's not certain that He Li would accept them.

After all, these high-ranking officials and dignitaries...

They make many important decisions, and their decisions often affect the fate of many people, causing countless people to be either harmed or encounter various other problems.

They are burdened with immense sins and could never become treacherous officials.

They are different from Jiang Qingtong.

Fortunately, these high-ranking officials of the Special Affairs Bureau are currently completely unaware of the matter concerning the Ghost Official.

Therefore, there's no need to overthink it.

Meanwhile, the higher-ups of the Special Affairs Bureau...

Especially the Zheng Kingdom, after listening to Jiang Qingtong's words, they understood that He Li clearly intended to use the Middle Realm and the Upper Realm to settle the score with evil.

In He Li's eyes, countless people in the world today probably bear enormous sins...

He thought these people deserved to die.

Furthermore, Zheng Guo was certain that over 60-70% of those to be purged by He Li were powerful and influential figures, those who had acted arrogantly and tyrannically during peacetime without being punished.

It is foreseeable that in the new era to come, almost all the old nobles and powerful figures will perish...

Individuals are absolutely free.

True "freedom"!

No longer oppressed, and the number of evildoers in the world will surely drop to rock bottom.

Because in the new era to come... the saying that there are gods watching over us will no longer be a joke, and the idea that evil deeds will be punished will be a true reflection of reality, not a laughing matter.

Faced with the situation where doing evil will result in retribution...

Who isn't afraid? Who would dare to do evil?

The world may soon usher in true peace, transforming into an ideal utopian world...

Thinking about it carefully, isn't this the ideal world that they, as young people, once had the ambition to eliminate evil and restore peace to the world?

However, reality is too cruel...

The immense power and influence behind those regimes, along with the intricate web of vested interests...

Crush their ambition.

From then on, they became accomplices...

Now that He Li holds divine power, he can truly transform the world into the ideal they dreamed of in their youth, while they... are utterly unworthy to live in this world...

Thinking of this, Zheng Guo and other high-ranking officials all had complicated expressions.

But now the die is cast...

Sins must be repaid; they cannot resist, nor can they resist, they can only obediently accept their fate...
