Chapter 282: Chapter 194: Operation Code: Demon Removal_3

Zheng Gong immediately made a call and discussed the situation with Li Yi.

"Okay, I understand. By the way, Zheng Gong, I have a medicine that might help Captain Zhang Lei with his illness. Have someone come and get it," Li Yi added.

"Really?" Zheng Gong sounded somewhat surprised.

Li Yi said, "I’m not certain it will work, but if Captain Zhang Lei could wake up at this time, it would definitely be a big help to the situation."

"Alright, just wait, I’ll have a staff member from the Investigation Bureau come get it right away. Once I have the medicine, I’ll deliver it to the captain immediately," Zheng Gong said. He might question others’ medicine, but he wouldn’t doubt one from Li Yi.

"No problem," Li Yi responded.

Their call ended quickly.

Knowing the plan, Li Yi realized he could no longer continue his cultivation; he didn’t even have enough time to rest and needed to prepare immediately.

After changing into the Qiu Dragon Suit, he took a few big medicines, grabbed a box of nutrient solution, and then went downstairs with the Hanging Man Spear in tow.

As soon as he reached the ground floor,

he saw Lin Yue at the elevator entrance.

"Li Yi, you’re just in time. I was about to look for you. Do you know about the Investigation Bureau’s action?" Lin Yue immediately said, "Today, they’re going to act on the old city district issue. I just received some information. Almost all the cultivators in Tianchang City have started moving, even the vice president of the Cultivator Association, Li Shaqing, is hurrying this way..."

"Zheng Gong just informed me. Master Pete’s proposal was rejected; the higher-ups refuse to destroy the old city district and do not want to see the Walking Corpse spread. Now, we can only rely on the cultivators to solve the Walking Corpse incident," Li Yi said seriously. "Sister Lin, we have to be prepared for the fight tonight."

"Naturally... Wait, what has happened to your body?" Lin Yue only then noticed that despite Li Yi’s efforts to conceal his Qi-Blood, a wave of Qi-Blood heat still hit her as she approached.

Just by standing beside him, she could feel the surging Qi-Blood circulating.

And when Lin Yue looked up at Li Yi’s head, she saw a blood-red aura soaring five or six meters high, like a beacon of war smoke rising up.

"I took a big medicine to forcibly stimulate my body’s Qi-Blood to help increase my strength," Li Yi fabricated an excuse; he didn’t want Lin Yue to worry.

After all, the Blood Burning Technique was about burning life span in exchange for three days of great strength.

"Such a drug that stimulates the body’s potential must have side effects," Lin Yue shrewdly noticed the issue there.

Li Yi said, "I’ll be weak after three days and my body might need some convalescence... But it’s okay, I’ll drink Extraordinary Water to repair my body and shorten the duration of the side effects."

"That’s good," Lin Yue nodded. "At times like this, we indeed need some aggressive measures to enhance our strength. Plus, we might encounter Yang Yilong and his group on this mission... A fierce battle is inevitable, but don’t worry, if Yang Yilong dares to make a move, I’ll protect you and won’t let him succeed."

"Yang Yilong will also be there?" Li Yi’s expression faltered.

His greatest worry had materialized.

This mission was not just about the terrifying Walking Corpse and fierce ghosts, but also a formidable foe nearby. If he didn’t handle it well, his own life would be at great risk.

But the accumulation of his Qi-Blood was still insufficient.

It was not enough to fill the nine acupoints...for now, he could only wait and break through when he had accumulated enough.

He just hoped he wouldn’t encounter Yang Yilong too soon before that.

"Sister Lin, don’t worry. If we really run into Yang Yilong, at worst we’ll have a fight. Who will win or lose is still uncertain, and it’s about time to settle some old scores. This is just the opportunity," Li Yi said, his eyes gleaming red, murder flickering within them.

He was still within the period of the Blood Burning Technique, when his strength was at its peak in his lifetime. Soon, he would be able to open the nine acupoints and condense the Qi Blood Fist Gang. All these combined would qualify him for a head-to-head battle with Yang Yilong, maybe even giving him an edge.

"Okay, if you want to fight, I’ll join you," Lin Yue said, her temper flaring. Seeing Li Yi refuse to back down, she decided to go all out as well.
