Two pounds of Blood Sword Tiger meat were almost devoured in one meal by Pei Jinye and Tang Huoyang.

Feeling the rise of blood energy within the body.

Pei Jinye swiped to reveal the attribute panel, and as expected, his vitality surged, making him somewhat pleasantly surprised, “This effect is so strong, it’s comparable to a Blood-red Carp.”

“You should know, one Blood-red Carp is worth all this…” Tang Huoyang said with a smile, “And if you think about how big a Blood Sword Tiger is, the overall value is still in favor of the Blood Sword Tiger.”

A glimmer of light appeared before Pei Jinye’s eyes, but he questioned with doubt, “Da Peng City doesn’t have Blood Sword Tigers at all. Aren’t these creatures more common in the south?”

“Right, they were abundant in the Southern Continent before, but in the past few years, they were introduced to Central State. Now they are being bred in Nan Du City. People over there are more into martial arts than we are here, so there are more hunting grounds. We should go there sometime to shoot some guns and have some fun.”

“Okay, but how is the Blood Sword Tiger meat being sold?”

Hearing Pei Jinye’s question, Tang Huoyang shook his head and said, “It’s currently not available to the external market. Only a friend of my third uncle has some channel to get a few pounds.”

Pei Jinye couldn’t help feeling a bit disappointed.

Not for sale… The control over resources here is a bit too strict.

The concentration of Blood Lotus had already shown him the path to increasing his strength.

Even though raising the upper limit would be somewhat difficult, for Pei Jinye, that was not really a problem… The Attribute Light Group, the cure for all kinds of difficulties.

“Are you going to the guild this afternoon?” Tang Huoyang looked up and asked.

“Not going.” Pei Jinye looked back and asked, “Why, do you have something on?”

“Nothing much. This afternoon I plan to inquire about Lan Ranran’s situation. You and her…” Tang Huoyang was a bit curious.

Pei Jinye knew he was thinking too much and casually mentioned something that happened a few evenings ago.

“Chaotically, as I thought!” Tang Huoyang suddenly felt a burst of anger in his heart, “That Wei Xia really can’t change his…”

Pei Jinye coughed, and Tang Huoyang swallowed the last word, “That guy is petty-minded, probably bearing a grudge against you. I’ll go ask about it this afternoon…”

As he spoke, Tang Huoyang complained discontentedly, “But he also had no idea who called him earlier.”

“Who cares about him.” Pei Jinye stuffed the last piece of Blood Sword Tiger meat into his mouth.

Tang Huoyang cursed with a laugh, “Damn, you’re too quick with your hands.”

“Bang!”

Wei Xia furiously smashed a vase beside him, cursing loudly, “They’re all a bunch of bastards!”

He picked up the phone and dialed, “The Lan Family’s factory has been sealed up by me! They’re suing me? Let them sue! It’s only right to repay debts, if they can’t pay back my money and still trying to play dirty, get me the best lawyer. I want the Lan Family bankrupt!”

“If you can’t do it, you’re the first one I’ll fire!”

He slammed down the phone.

Wei Xia silently sat on the sofa.

At the door.

Wei Xianren arrived without Wei Xia knowing when, and Wei Xia’s expression suddenly stiffened. He said coldly, “What is it?”

Wei Xianren walked into the room, wearing a pair of black gloves, and spoke calmly, “The family is worried that my dear brother might do something foolish and specifically arranged for me to come over for a look. Pei Jinye’s information has been sealed, and currently, the family believes that he might be connected to Central State. Do you understand what I’m saying?”

Wei Xia was annoyed.

He understood the principles, but he couldn’t stand the family’s gradually fading patience with him.

Looking at Wei Xia’s silence, Wei Xianren shook his head, “You’ve disappointed me too much.”

Wei Xia suddenly looked up.

Wei Xianren had already stepped away, and soon there was the sound of a car leaving from outside the door.

“Damn it!” Wei Xia’s face looked terribly upset as he dialed a number and asked sternly, “What the hell is going on with Wei Xianren now? Is the family planning to let him completely take over my affairs?”

The next second, Wei Xia suddenly said in astonishment, “He’s going to the Judgement Place? Who got that connection for him?”

Then he fell silent.

Listening to the voice on the phone, he seemed somewhat unwilling, “What about me? Is the family planning to completely abandon me? But… I’ve also done a lot for the family!”

After the phone call.

Wei Xia viciously kicked the cabinet in front of him.

He paced back and forth in the room.

Before long.

He dialed another number.

“Look into someone for me… His name is Pei Jinye!”

Inside the room.

Pei Jinye was practicing “Twelve Lotuses.”

Mr. Han had given him three days to rest, after which someone would contact him. These three days seemed long but were actually short.

His elders had gone to East Street.

Pei Jinye continued his practice until he arrived at the school as agreed in the afternoon.

It was just the time for school to let out.

“Brother Ye, holy shit, it really is Brother Ye!” The chubby deskmate spotted Pei Jinye in the crowd at once, left his classmates behind, and jogged over.

“Holy shit, Brother Ye, you don’t look like you’ve been ill at all.”

The chubby deskmate pinched Pei Jinye’s arm, but Pei Jinye’s complexion was ruddy and his vitality surprisingly good. Even through the jacket and long-sleeved shirt underneath, it was impossible to associate him with frailness.

Pei Jinye wasn’t overly unfamiliar with him, but he brushed away the hand that was moving towards his chest.

The chubby boy chuckled and gave a thumbs-up, “Brother Ye, it’s been a while since I saw you, and you’re… really big, really strong. But why are you at school? Are you planning to go back to school?”

Pei Jinye shook his head, “I’m waiting for someone.”

“Waiting for someone?” The chubby boy looked puzzled.

Ever since he saw Pei Jinye leaving with the principal, he had always thought his good brother had an extraordinary identity.

However, when he went to Pei Jinye’s house for a meal, he didn’t get the impression that his family was that impressive.

Could Uncle Pei have struck it rich during this period?

Amass wealth secretly?

“Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west”?

“What are you thinking about?” Pei Jinye’s voice interrupted the chubby boy’s thoughts. His cheeks were slightly flushed as he blurted out, “That’s so lit!”

“What’s so lit?”

The chubby boy scratched his head, “Tomorrow’s the weekend, do you want to go to Da Ying’s to play video games? It’s my treat.”

Pei Jinye did not intend to accept the invitation, but when he saw the chubby boy’s ego was a bit bruised, he agreed.

“By the way, are you not at all worried about the big test?”

“There are still several months left. Besides, you’ve dropped out of school already, if we’re brothers, I should fail with you!”

“…I’m not like you.”

“I understand, I really do.”

Pei Jinye had no response.

Suddenly, the roaring sound of a motorcycle approached from afar, drawing everyone’s attention.

The rider didn’t lift their helmet visor but waved to Pei Jinye. He nodded in understanding and, after signaling to the chubby boy to keep in touch by phone, he sat behind the rider and put on a black helmet.

In front of a group of vibrant high school students, they rode off into the distance.

The chubby boy’s mouth gradually fell open… “Holy shit, that looks like Ice Sister’s bike!!! Brother Ye is so badass!!!”

Ten minutes later.

Pei Jinye looked at the sign in front of the door with surprise, “Are we eating here?”

Ice Sister removed her helmet, shook her long hair, and casually hung the helmet on the handlebar, “I come here often, the food is good, and it’s affordable.”

Pei Jinye looked up and couldn’t help but glance at the sign again.

The restaurant’s name: Another Big Bowl.

Ice Sister chose a rather quiet spot, then passed the menu to Pei Jinye, “What do you want to eat?”

Pei Jinye smiled, pushing the menu back, “You order, Ice Sister. I’m treating today. I’ve been indebted to you for so long, surely treating you to a meal isn’t too much?”

Ice Sister looked over in surprise, a rare and gentle smile on her face, her gaze moving from Pei Jinye’s face to the menu in her hands.

It seemed like the young boy who was embarrassed about money in front of her last month had grown up…

Pei Jinye watched Ice Sister.

A mentor and a friend, perhaps that said it all.

He was always grateful that Ice Sister was willing to give him an opportunity.

It was because of this opportunity that he had seized, he managed to make a small name for himself.

Outsiders were unaware of his tumultuous journey, and Pei Jinye would not elaborate.

He then took the menu from Ice Sister’s hand and added two more dishes.

However, Ice Sister intercepted, “We can’t finish all this. It’s just the two of us; there’s no need to waste.”

Pei Jinye laughed, “Ice Sister, you know nothing about my appetite.”

Ice Sister silently retracted her hand, shaking her head with a small laugh, “Is this year’s assessment difficult?”

“They changed the assessment system,” Pei Jinye said. “Regarding difficulty, I think it’s okay; it’s just a bit of a delay.”

Ice Sister, unaware of the events at the base, pondered, “I heard about the changes. I was a bit worried at first, but as long as you can pass, that’s all that matters.”

Pei Jinye was about to say something.

Ice Sister raised her hand to interrupt, “No need for thanks. I’m quite happy as long as you treat me to a meal; I have received your kind intention. I’m not fond of fussing over things.”

Pei Jinye smiled and nodded, “Actually, I came this time to ask if you know much about the Investigation Team?”

“Investigation Team?” Ice Sister’s eyebrows lifted slightly, as if she guessed something but did not say it aloud, “The Investigation Team originated as a military organization under the Federation. Now independent from the Military Department, it’s a separate military entity. It differs from the Night Patrol Department; while the Night Patrol directly interacts with the public as an administrative body, the Investigation Team acts as a secret department, responsible for reconnaissance, infiltration, and handling high-risk incidents.”

Pei Jinye fell into contemplation.

At this moment, Ice Sister looked at him and added, “If you join the Investigation Team, you will get more opportunities to encounter Transcendent beings… It’s dangerous, but you’ll grow quickly.”

“How does it differ from the Judgement Place?” Pei Jinye asked.

“Judgement Place?” There was a hint of disdain when Ice Sister heard the name of that institution, “Some things might take the wrong path once they are endowed with certain beliefs… you’d better not go there. If you do, you’d be brainwashed. They have more lunatics than most.”

Pei Jinye nodded, signaling he understood; however, he was curious about something else, “Ice Sister, I’ve always wondered about the organization you and Sister Xi come from?”

Ice Sister took a sip of water, calmly stated, “Executioners.”

“Executioners?” Pei Jinye was baffled, having never heard of this organization before.

Ice Sister’s gaze calmly played with the rim of her cup, “It’s a special agency established by the Military Department this year. It’s normal you haven’t heard of it. Its mission is to deal with traitors within the military. It operates independently from both the Investigation Team and the Night Patrol Department, and ultimately, the Executioners still carry the identity of the military.”

After a pause,

Ice Sister did not deny, “Initially, I considered bringing you in, but you’re not suitable.”

Pei Jinye looked up.

Ice Sister stated concisely, “A soldier’s duty is to obey orders. Are you someone who likes to be commanded?”

Pei Jinye smirked without answering the question but voiced his confusion, “Doesn’t the Investigation Team need to obey orders as well?”

“It’s relatively relaxed by comparison. But the Executioners are different; their essence lies in the word ‘execution’,” Ice Sister, as if recalling something, spoke solemnly, “Under the Federation’s system, the implementation of some procedures ends up serving the interests of a select few… Although the Investigation Team has laxer discipline, strictly speaking, their procedures can also seem impersonal.”

Pei Jinye slowly raised his head.

Under the candlelight, those eyes seemed to flicker with flames.

But for him, at this point, the word “procedure” was too distant; perhaps only after firsthand experience would he truly understand.

Ice Sister did not say much else.

She was never one to wallow in self-pity.

However, facing Pei Jinye’s gaze, she lifted her water cup, “In place of wine, I celebrate your accomplishments.”
