Players at this level, with the full support of the state, who learn powerful Visualization methods from "Scripture of Mountains and Seas" or "Search God Record," might even surpass Li Changzhou's strength from just a few days ago.

But Li Changzhou was not afraid.

Even without mastering [Giant Kun] and [Yin Yang Double Snakes], he was not fearful—he had also brought back the "Fortune Golden Pen" within just a few hours, hadn't he?

"We will not allow citizens of Xia Country to be harmed, and we absolutely will not allow any foreign forces to run wild on the land of Xia Country," Zheng Qing said sternly.

Li Qianxia felt a tremendous sense of belonging in her heart.

Li Changzhou expressed neither agreement nor objection.

Yang Qinglan, as if she hadn't heard, said indifferently, "Didn't you get any information about who's behind these people?"

"These people have made contracts with their secret backers, and no matter how severe the interrogation, they won't disclose a bit of information," Zheng Qing sighed.

The leads have been cut, and the people dead; there was no one to seek revenge upon.

Just like Kujo Jotaro said, as long as the real killer wasn't eliminated, this slingshot remained poised without release, and no one knew if or when the other side might let go.

If Li Changzhou knew even a hint of information, he would act first to get the upper hand; he would snatch the other party's slingshot and break the enemy's legs and limbs, putting an end to future troubles.

Zheng Qing's visit this time was not just to deliver the Identity Card.

"The Special Warfare Bureau hopes you won't go to school for a short period, the leave has already been arranged for you," she said.

The leave had been arranged... somewhat forcefully.

"Yes, of course," Li Changzhou did not mind, "We also don't want to involve our classmates and teachers."

"Also, the Special Warfare Bureau is extending their invitation for you to join once more," Zheng Qing said, "You've seen that the benefits of joining the Special Warfare Bureau are good, and they have the strength to protect you. The missions you'll be responsible for won't be hard for you, and the one to retrieve the 'Fortune Golden Pen' from Japan was already the hardest of the First Level."

But it couldn't be guaranteed that retrieving the 'Fortune Golden Pen' would always be the hardest of the First Level;

nor could it be guaranteed that the level of missions would always be accurately assessed;

and it also couldn't be guaranteed that they wouldn't encounter players who countered their abilities in every mission.

Most importantly, once they joined the Special Warfare Bureau, there would be hierarchies, and the vocational coercion of 'you are with the Special Warfare Bureau, this is your duty'.

In Li Changzhou's heart, no mission compared to protecting his sister and Yang Qinglan, and living well together.

His early experiences had pushed some aspects of his personality to the extreme.

"If we consider joining the Special Warfare Bureau, we will contact you immediately," Li Changzhou said, keeping this option open, regardless of what he thought inside.

Whether to join or not, the decision would be based on what was more advantageous for their survival.

"Good, the doors of the Special Warfare Bureau are always open to you, and I will wait for your call," Zheng Qing said.

"Thank you, if the Special Warfare Bureau is short-staffed in some areas, you can also contact us again," Yang Qinglan stated, uninterested in joining but believing it was essential to maintain the relationship.

After Zheng Qing left, Yang Qinglan instructed the two employees who had just come to work: "I will be away for a while, contact me if you need anything."

"Oh, sure, boss."

After the three left, the two female clerks looked at each other.

One clerk asked the other, "Didn't the fairy boss mention last night that she was going out?"

"Probably she was worried we would forget, so she came to tell us again this morning," the other replied.

"Is that so... By the way, did you see that explosion crater on your way here?"

"I did, I did, I don't think it was a natural gas explosion. The natural gas we use at home isn't that powerful. There are so many bizarre incidents online now; it could be—"

The two gossiped while putting on their aprons, preparing for the bookshop's business that day.

Li Changzhou and his companions left the shop, wandering the busy streets in the early morning as if they had no place to call home.

"Where to now?" Li Changzhou asked while sending messages to Yafeiluna and Wang Donghua on his phone, asking for their help in finding the real mastermind.

"Go back and continue Cultivation," Yang Qinglan said.

"Sydney!" Li Qianxia declared.

Li Changzhou and Yang Qinglan looked at Li Qianxia.

"Uh, I mean," her eyes flickered, "Let's go to Sydney for secluded Cultivation, yeah!"
