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

Wenshu Temple is a popular tourist attraction in Chengdu.

The number of people visiting this place is no less than that of Xianying Bridge.

Besides ordinary tourists, most of those who come here are Buddhist pilgrims.

That's why, when He Li flew over with Yu Ji enveloped in a faint golden spiritual aura, the worshippers immediately widened their eyes, thinking they had seen a real Buddha...

"Look, what's that?"

"Someone...someone flew over here???"

"What person? Don't talk nonsense, that's Buddha!"

"Didn't you see he was radiating golden light? That must be what Buddhists call a golden body, right?"

"Wow, could it really be a true Buddha descended to earth?"

"But how come he still has hair?"

"Didn't Buddha say that everyone should be bald?"

"Is this the time to worry about whether he's bald or not? You've seen a real Buddha, why aren't you bowing and kneeling in worship? Why aren't you making a wish? Maybe Buddha will grant your wish..."

Inside Wenshu Temple, upon seeing He Li descend from the sky, many pilgrims knelt down with their hands clasped in prayer.

He Li was speechless.

Are these worshippers really that superstitious?

Buddha? What Buddha is there in this world?

If there were a Buddha, there would be no evildoers in the world.

He shook his head, ignoring the awe and worship of the tourists and pilgrims, and walked forward.

The monks of Wenshu Temple were furious upon seeing this.

Where the hell did this strange martial arts master come from?

They've managed to fool people all the way to Wenshu Temple with their little tricks, haven't they?

And you're doing this in front of them?

You're done here and you don't want to leave? You want to come back in?

What does this mean? Are you trying to cause trouble?

Do you really think monks have no temper?

Just as He Li was about to enter, a monk was about to step forward and say something when He Li interrupted him coldly, saying, "Is the president of Qiangyuan Biotechnology here?"

Hmm? The president of Qiangyuan Biotechnology?

Isn't that Bugou Mountain?

The monks who had already met Gou Shan shook their heads upon hearing this, even though they understood the situation.

"Benefactor, this is a place beyond the mundane world!"

"We don't know anything about the president of Qiangyuan Technology."

"All who come are pilgrims, and we welcome them. If you have other purposes, please leave. If you disturb this sacred Buddhist place, you may incur the Buddha's wrath!"

The leading monk gave a lukewarm response.

Yu Ji sneered beside He Li.

"Hmph, are you afraid of Buddha's wrath?"

"It is said that monks do not lie."

"You lie as easily as eating and drinking; how can you not be afraid of Buddha's wrath?"

As she spoke, she looked at He Li.

"They've synchronized; they've met Gou Shan!"

"The other party is still hiding here and hasn't left."

Hearing this, He Li nodded and strode towards the main hall. The monks frowned and began to gather their qi, preparing to intercept him.

"Benefactors, you..."

"roll!!!"

Before the monks could get close, He Li gave a low shout and simultaneously took a step forward, instantly creating a gust of wind...

Boom! ...

"This is a sacred Buddhist sanctuary; how dare you be so disrespectful!!!"

Accompanied by shouts, dozens of warrior monks strode over.

Those warrior monks were clearly more imposing.

The white-bearded old man at the head of the group gave He Li a somewhat familiar feeling...

Like... Tang Hao!

Is this old guy at the Profound Knowledge Realm?

He Li was somewhat suspicious.

Those martial monks who had just been blown away by He Li's martial arts intent immediately showed joy upon seeing the old man, and despite their injuries, they stood behind him...

"Lord, this person's intentions are not good!"

"I think he's just here to cause trouble!"

"He was just pretending to be a saint here!"

"Many worshippers have been scammed by him!"

"That's right. Now that spiritual energy has been restored, there are reclusive martial arts practitioners or extraordinary individuals in various places vying for auspicious locations. I think he's just trying to take advantage of his abilities to steal and cheat."

"Yes, after all, the spiritual energy here is much stronger than in other places because we're close to the Silver Sand Ruins..."

"It's inevitable that some people will be envious and want to take it."

"We beg Your Highness to subdue this evil being!!!"

As if they had found a powerful backer and a pillar of support, the monks made no attempt to conceal their malice.

They all started talking at once.

Finally, the group of monks couldn't resist giving He Li a cold laugh.

That seemed to mean...

"You've messed with the wrong person, you're finished."

He Li almost burst out laughing when he heard these words.

Is this what these monks are like? No wonder they're associated with Qiangyuan Biotechnology. Ultimately, it's because these monks are inherently dishonest and not good people.

However, shouldn't that temple master be reasonable?

After all, he was one of the people in charge.

Surely we can't be so ignorant of the seriousness of the matter?

Thinking of this, He Li said calmly, "Disrupt the event? Seize territory? I have no interest in this place."

"I'm here to find someone."

"Gou Shan is hidden here, right?"

"Hand over the person, and I'll leave."

"Of course, you don't have to pay, but if I take matters into my own hands, things won't end so well. I'm only saying this to you out of respect for those Buddhas!"

"You people, don't push your luck!"

Arrogant! Absolutely arrogant!

This attitude even on someone else's turf?

Not only were the tourists and monks dumbfounded, but the investigators who had come to watch the spectacle after seeing He Li fly overhead were also speechless upon hearing this.

"I know He Li is arrogant."

"I never imagined they'd be this arrogant."

"That temple master... is he Master Jin Xin? It's said he's already broken through to the Profound Knowledge Realm!"

"Not only that, he cultivates the Golden Bell Shield."

"And it seems to have reached its pinnacle!"

"It's said that after he uses the Golden Bell Shield, he can condense the true essence of the Golden Bell, making him ridiculously invulnerable to swords and spears. Most importantly, besides him, Abbot Master Faxin, Qin Yuan, is also here..."

"That one is even more indestructible!"

"The intensity needs to be increased to another level."

"How dare He Li act so presumptuously here? He might get a lesson from those masters this time."

"Indeed, although He Li is very strong, he seems to have only opened about ten apertures of the Spirit Realm, right? His strength lies in his supernatural abilities, but his psychic-like supernatural abilities can be blocked with spiritual sense..."

The investigators discussed among themselves.

He Li listened, feeling a bit curious as well.

Golden Bell Cover and Vajra Indestructible are martial arts techniques that only existed in old martial arts novels.

This time, it seems we can finally see it for ourselves.

"I just don't know anything about these martial arts techniques..."

"Can you withstand one of my punches?"

He Li squinted as he pondered.

Until Master Jin Xin, who was leading the group, suddenly spoke up in response to what he had just said...

He finally came to his senses.

"Gou Shan? He's definitely here!"

Master Jin Xin calmly gazed at He Li and said, "But this old monk will not hand him over."

He spoke frankly, and He Li frowned.

"He's a criminal..."

"That's not important!" Master Jin Xin interrupted him: "Wenshu Temple is a pure Buddhist place. No trouble should or can be caused here. No one is allowed to act recklessly here."

"No matter what Gou Shan has done, you are not allowed to arrest him as long as he has not left here."

Master Jin Xin spoke of tranquility.

It's as if it's simply stating a rule.

He doesn't care whether or not the principles are followed.

Even if He Li didn't comply and tried to force his way in, he felt he could handle He Li himself.

After all, he's just a young kid.

How capable can he be?

He's too young to have a high level of martial arts skill; his reliance is mostly on supernatural abilities. However, as a Xuanzhi Realm expert, he possesses both spiritual awareness and the Golden Bell Shield protecting him...

Who could possibly hurt him?

Master Jin Xin was full of confidence.

Perhaps seeing that He Li remained silent, Master Jin Xin assumed that He Li was hesitating and continued...

"Let's leave this matter aside for now."

"But it is a fact that you injured a monk from my Wenshu Temple. Have you considered how you intend to compensate me?"

"If the benefactor cannot satisfy this humble monk..."

"That's something this humble monk cannot agree to!"

Huh? Is this old man alright?

That's a criminal! You're saying you're obligated to protect him just because he's here, no matter what he did? What? Are the rules of your Manjushri Temple superior to national laws?

We'll give you compensation?

You still won't agree if I don't satisfy you?

He Li finally couldn't help but laugh.

"I originally thought that since he was a highly accomplished monk, he should at least be reasonable."

"Now it seems I was overthinking it."

"You fat, bald monks, perhaps you've become so used to being flattered and worshipped that you actually think you're above the state and the law?"

"Heh~ What a coincidence, what I can't stand the most is people like you who live off the benefits the country provides..."

"An organization that wants to be above the state."

"An organization like this... should be destroyed!!!"

The moment the word "annihilation" was uttered, everyone was terrified.

What does this kid mean?

He wants to destroy the Manjushri Temple?
