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

"Who killed you?"

Inside the room, He Li spoke up and asked.

The objects of his inquiry were the three corpses.

Jiang Han was completely stunned.

What's going on? What's wrong with this guy? Who stands in front of a corpse and asks it who killed them? If a corpse could speak and answer you, would it still be a corpse?

Jiang Han found it somewhat incomprehensible.

He Li's eyes gleamed with a silvery-gray light, clearly indicating that he was activating some special power.

That "power" is none other than the Hungry Ghost Vision!

The effect of the Hungry Ghost Vision is to see the afterlife and the wandering consciousnesses that have sunk into it, and even to touch and devour them directly.

He activated the Hungry Ghost Vision in order to find Master Mingxuan's consciousness and ask her for clues directly.

However, Jiang Han was unaware of his new supernatural power.

Therefore, in her view, He Li seemed to be going crazy.

Meanwhile, in He Li's line of sight...

The world has changed...

When the supernatural power was activated, the world reversed. After only a moment of dizziness, He Li's eyes saw that the brightly lit club room was now only gray and white.

The others had disappeared.

In its place in the room were three wisps of pale red mist that drifted aimlessly like flames, and the mist shifted slightly, revealing faint human figures.

This must be the consciousness of Master Mingxuan and the others.

The soul has ascended and vanished.

Consciousness sank into the afterlife...

If there truly is an underworld, they would most likely be enduring various forms of torment for the sins they committed in life, but unfortunately, the afterlife is empty and devoid of anything.

The three consciousnesses trembled violently after hearing He Li's voice.

It looked like a flame being stimulated by water vapor.

Their ethereal, hate-filled voices also rang out intermittently amidst the intense trembling...

"The Dragon Lord...it's the Dragon Lord..."

"He lied to me... he lied to me..."

"It's fake...it's all fake..."

"Dragon offspring are food... Don't raise them... Don't raise them... They feed on us..."

"From beginning to end...it has always been!!!"

"The Ten-Horned Dragon... Ten Directions..."

"Kill him! Kill him!!!"

Their voices were full of emotion, but it was also clear that perhaps due to death, their consciousness had been affected, causing their minds to become unclear.

After all, normal people don't talk like that.

However, although they were not in a normal state of mind... they were filled with hatred for the murderer.

The information they revealed was also very important.

"The murderer is actually the Dragon Lord?"

"This is really unexpected."

"However... it's also understandable."

He Li pondered. As early as when he learned that Song Qinghe's Bloodline Dragon Butterfly was given to him by the Dragon Lord to raise, He Li had already vaguely guessed that the Dragon Lord would definitely not be so kind.

He must have had a purpose in sending the dragon heir, judging from what Master Mingxuan and the others just said...

The other party's purpose becomes clear.

"According to them..."

"The Dragon Lord gave them the dragon offspring monsters so that they could be raised and grown up before being eaten by the Ten-Horned Dragon. It should be beneficial for the Ten-Horned Dragon to eat those monsters."

"Although I don't know exactly what it will get..."

"But isn't this a little strange?"

"According to the dragon and elephant theory, they were all offspring of the ten-horned dragon, and the ten-horned dragon ate them?"

Even tigers don't eat their cubs...

"This ten-horned dragon..." He Li shook his head, but he already had some ideas on how to find the dragon lord of the Dragon Worship Society and how to get rid of the dragon lord.

"Since the Dragon Lord will devour those dragon offspring, then basically all we need to do is keep a close eye on the related cases..."

"Then we will surely be able to catch the Dragon Lord."

While pondering, He Li looked at the three consciousnesses again.

He wanted to find out about their other accomplices.

Although you can find similar cases of collecting various things to raise monsters by checking nearby cities, it's not as efficient as asking these criminals directly.

Thinking this, He Li spoke again...

"Besides you, Song Qinghe, and Qin Yuan, which other cities have people who have obtained the Dragon's offspring?"

He asked, but the three consciousnesses ignored him.

They wandered around here on their own.

Seeing this, He Li sneered slightly, then suddenly reached out and grabbed all three of them, who clearly hadn't expected that He Li could not only see them but also touch their consciousness.

"Say it, don't make me ask a second time!"

As he spoke, He Li applied a slight pressure to his hand.

Instantly, the three consciousnesses were twisted and deformed by the pinching.

The intense pain caused them to tremble wildly...

"Mountain...Mountain City...Le City...Lingchuan..."

Under pressure from He Li, they rattled off the names of ten cities, including Bacheng and Rongcheng. Upon hearing this, He Li's sneer intensified.

"Why didn't you say so earlier?"

"Does one have to suffer a bit to feel comfortable?"

"You scoundrel!"

As he spoke, He Li was enveloped in black mist and opened his mouth to bite fiercely at the three consciousnesses.

This greatly frightened the three consciousnesses, including Master Mingxuan.

"Let me go...let us go..."

"Please...please..."

"Let them go?" He Li's eyes flashed with a fierce light: "You created so many human skin monsters in Emei, who knows how many people you secretly harmed to raise that dragon offspring monster."

"You think just dying is enough?"

"Ha, you should be glad that there are no Black and White Impermanence or Yama in the afterlife."

"Otherwise, you will suffer a hundred times more!"

"However, although there is no King Yama..."

"There are no eighteen hells, but I can let you taste the pain of being chewed up alive!" After saying that, He Li ignored their struggles and stuffed them into his mouth and chewed them forcefully.

He could faintly hear eerie wails and screams coming from the mouth.

But these sounds quickly ceased completely as He Li chewed and swallowed them...

Meanwhile, outside...

"What...is he doing?"

Watching He Li grabbing at the air and eating it...

Jiang Han asked Yu Ji with surprise and doubt.

The latter glanced at her and then curled his lip, saying, "Of course he has his reasons for everything he does."

"You don't need to know!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Han was displeased and about to say something when she noticed Yu Ji suddenly looking delighted and walking towards He Li. When she turned around, she realized that He Li had already woken up at some point.

"What happened to you just now?"

Seeing that He Li had recovered, Yu Ji asked curiously.

He Li smiled and said, "I tried out my new ability and saw the consciousness of Abbess Mingxuan and the others."

Hmm? A new ability? The consciousness of Master Mingxuan?

Yu Ji was visibly taken aback upon hearing this.

It seemed that when she recalled the time at the Emei Sect, He Li had inexplicably asked her about the soul, and she suddenly realized that He Li had benefited from the Black Stele.

This made Yu Ji even more curious...

"So you found out who killed her?"

"What exactly did she tell you?"

Yu Ji's eyes were full of anticipation.

Upon hearing this, He Li glanced at Jiang Han not far away, then smiled and pulled Yu Ji close to her side, whispering in her ear, "The one who killed them was the Dragon Lord of the Dragon Worship Society."

"Dragon Lord?" Yu Ji exclaimed in astonishment.

"Yes!" He Li nodded, then told Yu Ji about the other clues and his own guesses.

The latter fell into deep thought after hearing this.

Jiang Han, who was not far away, was furious when she saw He Li and Yu Ji whispering to each other as if they were guarding against a thief, clearly having obtained a new clue.

"No, is it really that serious?"

"It won't hurt me to listen, will it?"

She couldn't help but stomp her feet.

But she was utterly shocked.

Because... He Li actually has the ability to communicate with the dead, an absurd ability she'd never heard of in any strange or supernatural place.

What exactly did this person eat to obtain it?

Also, what exactly are the effects of his ability?

Is it just being able to communicate with the deceased?

Or does it serve another purpose?

Jiang Han couldn't help but make wild guesses. Seeing that He Li and Yu Ji were still whispering over there and had no intention of paying attention to her, Jiang Han could only sigh helplessly and leave.

Once outside, after thinking it over, she decided to use her watch to send a communication request to Lin Fan.

Meanwhile, Lin Fan, who had just arrived in another city to investigate the Bailong Society, saw Jiang Han's communication request, pursed his lips, answered the call, and spoke...

"What? You want me to pick you up?"

"I told you before, don't waste your time on him, he doesn't have any useful clues."

"You still won't listen, now you want me to pick you up..."

Lin Fan was talking to himself.

To his surprise, Jiang Han's words left him completely bewildered...

"He can really communicate with the dead!!!"
