(Brothers reading pirated versions probably still don’t know about the extra scenes added in the last chapter~)

…

…

When Pei Jinye arrived at the Investigation Team’s Base, it was just eight o’clock sharp. Car horns honked from behind, and he turned his head to look.

Brother Bi rolled down his car window and indicated, “Have you had breakfast yet? See you on the second floor later?”

“See you on the second floor.”

As soon as he reached the cafeteria on the second floor, Zhou Ye was huddled in the crowd with a bowl of soup, seemingly discussing something with others.

When he saw Pei Jinye appear, he was stuffing a bun in his mouth, but immediately waved his hand and said indistinctly, “Jinye.”

Others around also turned their heads to look, but most of them didn’t know much about Pei Jinye’s deeds and showed little enthusiasm before turning their gazes away.

At the doorway, however, the young deputy leader of the special combat team, Old Liu, was smiling and greeting Pei Jinye, chatting and laughing about something.

Members of the special combat team passing by also stopped to greet Pei Jinye, and the entrance quickly gathered over a dozen elite members of the Elite Special Forces…

This scene left many in the cafeteria exchanging glances with each other.

Because of the special combat team’s high status at the base, they could be considered the absolute elite members…

The base had a separate cafeteria for them which was completely segregated from where the ordinary group members dined.

So, normally, these elites wouldn’t be seen.

But today…

Suddenly so many members of the elite combat team appeared, including the deputy leader who once “subdued” Xie Zuxin.

Someone nudged Zhou Ye’s arm and whispered, “What’s up with that guy?”

Zhou Ye was also taken aback but recovered and said with a roll of his eyes, “What do you think, given that the special combat team’s bunch of freaks are all warmly welcoming him?”

The person who asked was stunned on the spot.

Zhou Ye picked up his bowl of rice and stood up.

When Pei Jinye walked over, everyone looked at him with different eyes.

Pei Jinye got his meal and sat down next to Zhou Ye. Zhou Ye turned his back to the crowd, gave Pei Jinye a thumbs up, and chuckled softly, “Awesome.”

Pei Jinye simply shook his head and smiled.

“By the way, where’s Brother Bi?” Zhou Ye asked.

“Ran into him at the entrance, he went to park the car. He’ll be here soon.” Pei Jinye sipped his soy milk.

Zhou Ye whispered, “I was chatting with them just now, did you know about the big incident last night?”

Pei Jinye silently looked over… You don’t mean the thing with Asura, do you?

His gaze was clear as he said, “What happened?”

Zhou Ye leaned in and whispered, “This started with the explosion case at the harbor. I heard that last night our base received an urgent notice to escort a huge ship… but before it arrived, the ship was sunk by an explosion.”

“Really? Are you serious?” Pei Jinye seemed very surprised.

Zhou Ye nodded earnestly, whispering something more.

It wasn’t long before Brother Bi arrived with his tray and sat down opposite the two, suspiciously saying, “Why does the cafeteria feel so weird today? The people from group one are sneaking peeks at something. Was there a beautiful woman passing by?”

Zhou Ye raised his head and whispered, “Jinye just had a chat with Liu Feng that scared them.”

Brother Bi was taken aback, then burst into laughter, “Those blockheads are probably burning out their CPUs and still wouldn’t figure why. There’s an old saying that’s quite true, the most deadly are the invisible show-offs.”

“Brother Bi, stop teasing me,” Pei Jinye said, shaking his head with a smile.

Brother Bi also smiled, took a bite of his roujiamo, and then changed the subject, “Have you heard about what happened last night?”

Zhou Ye immediately perked up.

Pei Jinye smiled wryly inside… Another storytime, huh?

“I’ve got something you guys don’t know,” Brother Bi said mysteriously.

Zhou Ye’s ears pricked up.

Brother Bi looked around and whispered, “I heard there’s an unknown creature on the boat, high-level… don’t spread this around.”

Zhou Ye was stunned, then curiously asked, “Brother Bi, how do you know this?”

Brother Bi whispered, “I was late this morning, right? I went to the City Hall to deliver some documents, and I overheard it… Now, Da Peng City is too scared to get involved, they’re notifying the higher-ups to send someone to deal with it.”

Zhou Ye was somewhat surprised, “What kind of background does the creature on the boat have that no one in Da Peng City dares to touch it?”

“Not clear,” Brother Bi shook his head, “It must have been Xing Tian’s suggestion; otherwise, the officials of Da Peng City would have already started salvaging it and who knows, they might have fished up something good by now.”

Zhou Ye clicked his tongue in wonder, his face pale as a ghost, but he was enjoying the gossip immensely.

Pei Jinye, on the other hand, was quietly sipping his soy milk without joining in, just listening quietly.

Brother Bi sighed, “First there was that Star Space Creature, now god knows where this unknown creature popped up from, feels like this New Year isn’t going to be peaceful.”

“…My mom even wants me to go matchmaking before New Year’s, isn’t this delaying things?” Zhou Ye sighed with concern as well.

Pei Jinye and Brother Bi looked at Zhou Ye simultaneously, his face so pale he was virtually colorless.

Pei Jinye asked with concern, “Are you really okay?”

Zhou Ye smiled, “I’m fine, the bullet has already been removed, and I’ve been given a painkiller shot. I just need to recover slowly. It’s just a pity, if I could get a prosthetic limb, my combat power would surge again.”

Brother Bi scolded with a smile, “Still thinking about a prosthetic limb, you really think you’re some kind of cleaning robot.”

Zhou Ye’s face immediately turned bitter, “It’s because I’m too weak.”

Pei Jinye turned to him and said, “Didn’t they give you a vacation? Rest well, don’t keep yourself so tense during this time.”

“The New Year is coming, I need to earn some extra bonuses to take back,” Zhou Ye said, scratching his head sheepishly.

“You only have one life, brother, don’t push yourself too hard,” Brother Bi said, shaking his head.

Zhou Ye sighed, apparently having some unspeakable troubles, but managed a strained smile.

Pei Jinye looked down at his soy milk.

He was momentarily lost in thought.

The memory fragments of the being from last night that called itself “God” seemed to stir again in his mind.

“Damn, it feels like I’ve bitten off more than I can chew.”

He glanced at his attribute panel.

[Vitality Value]: 45-59;

[Stamina]: 44-58;

[Psychic Power]: 11.2-59;

(Extraordinary Second Rank average value: 35)

The toll of this wave was just too great.

And after he had advanced to his Second Form, the Transcendent fate he acquired seemed to have something different about it.

After the Gigantic Blood Nightmare, some blurred writing appeared…

But it hasn’t been revealed yet.

“Could that big guy from last night really have been a God?”

Pei Jinye fell into thought.

Based on the memory absorption from last night, he could basically determine that the entity hidden in the room on the negative sixth floor was some kind of star space creature…

Its body could grow to a height of a hundred meters, invincible in flesh, and indestructible…

Although he didn’t know what ultimately happened, there was no doubt that this mysterious “god”-like creature must have experienced some misfortune…

Otherwise, it wouldn’t have made its home on a cargo ship.

Last night, through the shadow in the smoke, Pei Jinye had determined that the mysterious creature’s size definitely did not exceed ten meters.

An injured “god”?

Pei Jinye fell into thought.

But it was also very painful…

The three Sword Intents given to him by the Sword Immortal had lost one in this manner.

His gaze fell on the blurry script of his Transcendent fate, and Pei Jinye gritted his teeth.

“Better give me some really cool benefits…”

Pei Jinye wished he could grab the two Sword Intents and rush to the bottom of the sea right now to deal with that big guy.

But unfortunately, the risk was too great…

“Still too weak…”

“Jinye?”

Brother Bi called out a few times before Pei Jinye snapped out of his thoughts.

“What’s up, Brother Bi?”

“Let’s go on patrol after we’ve eaten.” Brother Bi gestured.

Pei Jinye nodded.

Three minutes later, the three of them finished their meal. Zhou Ye insisted on following; considering it was just a patrol in the car, Brother Bi agreed.

A traffic accident occurred on the road; thirteen cars were involved in a pileup, and Zhou Ye, sitting inside the car eating a burger, was stunned.

After an eventful but safe patrol, Pei Jinye didn’t even return to the base.

“Brother Bi, just drop me off at the side of the road.”

Brother Bi said with concern, “You don’t look very well. Remember to rest and go to the hospital for a checkup this afternoon, or head back to the base for one.”

Zhou Ye also echoed with concern.

“I’ll be fine after a sleep, I’ve hit a bottleneck in my cultivation these past few days,” Pei Jinye lied.

Seeing this, Brother Bi didn’t say anything else and returned to the base with Zhou Ye.

Pei Jinye walked for a while and felt that someone was following him. He frowned slightly, then suddenly changed direction and dashed into an alley.

Soon after, two figures hurried over.

One fat and one thin, both in black suits, looking exactly like bodyguards from a wealthy family.

“Where’s the guy?”

The fat one said with a bewildered tone.

The thin, tall guy furrowed his brows, just about to turn around when suddenly a shadow flashed by, and without any time to react, he was punched squarely in the face. He spun 720 degrees in mid-air and landed with a thud.

The fat one froze, just about to draw a knife from his waist when a sword was pressed against the back of his neck, and a voice sounded.

“If you move carelessly, I can’t guarantee my sword won’t pierce through your neck.”

The fat one’s voice trembled on the spot.

His legs weakened as he said, “Friend, you’ve misunderstood, we mean no harm.”

Pei Jinye glanced over to the thin tall guy struggling to get up not far away.

The thin one was sitting on the ground, head held high, wiping the spattering blood from his nose.

“Our boss just wants to invite you for a simple meal,” the fat one hurriedly said with caution.

“Who’s your boss?” Pei Jinye was unmoved.

The tip of his sword pressed against the fat one’s neck, the cold, piercing sensation preventing the fat one from making any sudden movements.

“My boss is Jiang Pinghe,” the fat one quickly replied.

Pei Jinye raised his eyebrows.

Jiang Pinghe was Jiang Xiqing’s father and was also the eldest son of the main family who was kicked out of the ancestral home by “Jiang Qingcang.”

“Not interested.”

Pei Jinye sheathed his sword, “Tell your boss I have no interest in wealthy families, nor do I care for those trivial matters of the Jiang family. Follow me again, and I’ll have Jiang Qingcang deal with you!”

The fat one didn’t dare look back.

After a while.

The thin tall guy said, “He’s gone, stop shaking.”

“I’m not shaking,” the fat one replied defensively.

“Go fuck yourself.”

The thin one didn’t even glance at his feeble partner and called Jiang Pinghe, “Boss, he refuses to communicate with us. He said if we keep following, he’ll make the one from the ancestral home come forward.”

“…Come back.”

After a moment of silence on the phone, Jiang Pinghe said somberly.

…

Inside the study.

Jiang Lingsu appeared, looking at her father’s gloomy face, she asked cautiously, “Father, what’s wrong?”

Jiang Pingchang was caressing his phone.

After a moment, he spoke solemnly.

Under the light, his face was intermittently visible.

“It’s nothing. Make more visits to that junior of yours; he’s very important to us.”

“Who are you referring to when you mention the junior?” Jiang Lingsu asked hesitantly.

Jiang Pingchang lifted his head.

“Pei… Jinye.”

Jiang Lingsu realized, but she didn’t understand, “Did something happen?”

“Your uncle has already arranged for people to make contact. I’ve heard that the person from the ancestral home has been in frequent contact with Pei Jinye recently. Maybe this is our chance to take down your uncle.”

“I understand…”

…

Half an hour later.

“Father, Pei Jinye called me a ‘worn-out shoe’!!!”

“…”
