Chapter 83: Reputation Ruined
The joining of the Practitioners Association made the originally bright situation suddenly become confusing again.

The three parties are intertwined, and all have ideas about the strange objects.

In this situation, even Zhang Lei, the captain of the Investigation Bureau, had to think twice. After all, they were now out of their jurisdiction and very close to the danger zone. The so-called investigator's identity had little deterrent effect. For the sake of the rare objects, these people really dared to take ruthless actions.

However, Li Shaoqing's words directly eased the escalation of the conflict.

Yes.

How stupid it is to start fighting before the rare object has even been confirmed.

Whether it is worth spending a lot of money to grab a rare item depends on the value of the item.

"That makes sense. Let's take a look at the strange things in the building to satisfy everyone's curiosity. Zhang Lei, you have limited ability and can't stop so many people. For the sake of the lives of your investigators, you should agree to Li Shaoqing's request."

At this time, Wei Bin saw that things were taking a turn for the better and immediately spoke up.

"I can also guarantee that if the rare item is of no value, I will leave immediately and will not cause any trouble to anyone."

"Wei Bin, you have no right to speak here." Zhang Lei scolded unceremoniously, "I haven't come to you to settle the matter for your people injuring one of my investigators."

"The man who did it was Wu Li. He was sniped by your people. The body is right there. Didn't you see it?" Wei Bin said, "The murderer is already dead. What else do you want? Besides, I have nothing to do with the harm to the investigator. Don't slander him. Even if you are the captain, you have to provide evidence. Otherwise, I will hire a lawyer to sue you for defamation."

He opened his mouth and blamed all the faults on the dead man who had been killed by Li Yi.

"I'm not going to sue your mother, Wei Bin. You're such a sinful guy, and you still dare to talk nonsense here. I'm going to save you right now." Taoist Pete couldn't bear it anymore. He pointed the sniper rifle in his hand directly at Wei Bin and pulled the trigger without hesitation.

boom!
There was a gunshot.

Wei Bin's face darkened. He had been prepared. With his spiritual sense activated, he could detect danger around him in the first place and even dodge bullets in advance.

Just one side of the body.

The bullet just grazed him and didn't hit him at all.

However, a cultivator at the medium level behind Wei Bin was unlucky. He didn't even have time to react as he was pierced through the chest and died on the spot.

Obviously.

Taoist Priest Pete did it on purpose. He knew that one shot would not kill Wei Bin, but it was also a good thing if he could reduce the number of men on his side.

Including this man, the wanderer group had already lost three people before the fight even started, including a cultivator who had awakened his inspiration. It can be said that the loss was heavy.

"Peter, don't go too far. Do you really think I won't dare to kill you just because you're a monk?"

Wei Bin took a look at the corpse behind him, his face completely lost, and he was immediately enraged. He strode forward, as if he really wanted to find an opportunity to kill this guy.

"Come on, Wei Bin, give it a try."

Zhang Lei snorted coldly and took a few steps forward, blocking Taoist Priest Pete.

He didn't dare to bet whether Wei Bin would take action. Once this guy got close to a dangerous distance, with Wei Bin's strength, he might kill Taoist Pete instantly.

"Zhang Lei, we haven't settled the score yet. If you want to die, I don't mind giving you a ride."

Wei Bin was really angry at this moment. His eyes were shining and white light was flashing around his body, like static electricity.

Under the influence of the channeling technique, the cosmic energy in his body surged, which was extremely dangerous.

"Wei Bin, calm down. We haven't figured out the matter of the strange object yet. I won't agree if you take action now."

At this moment, a figure suddenly flashed over and came directly between the two of them. Yang Yilong raised his right arm, pointed at Wei Bin's head and spoke coldly.

"Yang Yilong." Wei Bin's face froze.

As a practitioner who also practiced the art of guidance, he understood better than anyone how terrifying Yang Yilong was.

His guiding technique can only guide the energy in his body to the surface of the body, but Yang Yilong has already practiced the guiding technique to an extremely high level. The energy in his body gathered together and could actually form an invisible sword. The sword was extremely lethal and could easily tear apart the bodies of extraordinary creatures. If he touched it, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Haha, Zhang Lei, if you keep insisting like this, once a fight really breaks out, things will be out of control. So are you planning to use the lives of the dozen or so people in your investigation bureau to protect the rare item, or do you want to sit down and have a good talk between the four of us?" At this moment, Li Shaoqing also strode over.

Zhang Lei's eyes moved slightly. He understood that his strength was not enough to control the overall situation.

Even if we report and request support, it will take time to mobilize experts.

Far water cannot put out a nearby fire. Zhang Lei understands this truth, and so do others.

Therefore, both the Practitioners Association and the Wanderers are very anxious and will not give Zhang Lei any chance to delay time.

The matter of the strange object must have a result today, no, even within an hour.

After thinking carefully, Zhang Lei took a long breath and said, "Li Shaoqing, Yang Yilong."

The two men's expressions changed and they looked at Zhang Lei.

"And Wei Bin, come with me." Zhang Lei finally compromised. He didn't dare to gamble with the lives of more than a dozen people in his investigation bureau.

After saying this, Zhang Lei immediately turned around and walked towards the building with the skull mural.

"That's right." Li Shaoqing said calmly, and then ordered: "Everyone in the Practitioners Association should wait where they are. No one is allowed to act recklessly without my permission." Yang Yilong no longer confronted Wei Bin. He smiled slightly and immediately walked towards the direction of the building.

"You wait here and don't do anything. I'm going to go to the building to take a look at the strange object." Wei Bin also instructed the others, "Daozi, keep a close eye on them. If anyone messes up, kill them directly."

"Got it." Daozi looked sinister and nodded slightly.

Just as the four of them walked to the entrance of the building, Zhang Lei suddenly thought of something, and immediately stopped and looked back.

Li Yi, who was in the crowd, felt it immediately.

It was obvious that Zhang Lei was looking at himself.

"Li Yi, you know the most about the situation in the building. Please come with me this time." Zhang Lei said.

"Okay." Li Yi nodded and did not refuse.

Seeing Li Yi coming, Yang Yilong's eyes moved slightly, and his mind immediately recalled what happened a while ago, so he had a deep impression of Li Yi. However, he did not expect that after not seeing him for a while, Li Yi actually joined the Investigation Bureau and became a foreign combatant, and it seemed that he was very favored by Zhang Lei.

"Hello, Li Yi, it's been a long time since we last met. Are you used to staying at my house last time?" Yang Yilong then smiled and greeted him.

"Do you know each other?" Zhang Lei glanced at Li Yi and said.

Li Yi nodded: "Of course I know him, but we are not on good terms. Last time I worked in his house, I almost died in the danger zone. I finally got a boxing skill in the danger zone, but he took it away by force. If I don't hand over the boxing skill, I probably won't be able to leave his house, and I have to pay back the little salary I earned."

"."The smile on Yang Yilong's face suddenly froze.

He subconsciously wanted to refute, but the words stopped at his lips. It seemed that what Li Yi said was correct.

But why do they sound so harsh when connected together?
"Oh, there is such a thing." Zhang Lei looked at Yang Yilong with some hostility in his eyes.

Even Li Shaoqing, who was also from the Cultivator Association, couldn't help but frown.

It seems that Yang Yilong has been bullying the weak and robbing people behind their backs.

This method is so dishonorable.

If you want something from someone else, you can buy it with money.

If you spend some money, even if it's just to lower the price, you are a person of status and position. Why would you become a robber?

"By the way, a woman named Qin Qing is also missing. She went to the danger zone and never came back. I don't know if she has anything to do with him." Li Yi continued.

Qin Qing?

Li Shaoqing's eyes darkened. He also knew Qin Qing. Now Li Yi reminded him that Qin Qing had not appeared in the Practitioners Association for a long time.

"Li Yi, that's enough."

Yang Yilong suddenly shouted at this moment. He understood that Li Yi was throwing dirty water on him.

"What, Yang Yilong? Do you still want to bully the people from our Investigation Bureau?" Zhang Lei shouted in the same manner, without any politeness.

Li Yi just saved more than a dozen people including himself. Based on this, no matter what trouble he gets into or what mistakes he makes in the future, he will be protected by himself.

If he loses control, people will lose their morale and he won’t be able to continue his role as team leader.

Li Shaoqing's expression also turned slightly cold: "Yang Yilong, after today, you have to give me an explanation for Qin Qing's matter. After all, Qin Qing is a member of the Cultivator Association. She has been missing for so long without any clear reason. As the vice president, I have to take care of it more or less."

"This Li Yi is slandering me, can't you see it?" Yang Yilong's face looked a little ugly.

"When did I slander you? Wasn't what I said a fact? Yang Yilong, you are a born evil guy, how dare you say that you have not learned my boxing?" Li Yi said immediately.

Yang Yilong was silent for a moment and then said, "Li Yi, I did learn your boxing skills, but you taught me voluntarily. Didn't I say that I owe you a favor?"

"Volunteer?"

Zhang Lei snorted heavily: "Yang Yilong, you are kidding me. If you want to rob someone, just rob him. Don't be so hypocritical. It's embarrassing."

"Yang Yilong, it turns out that you didn't spend a penny to learn other people's skills. No wonder others have opinions about you." Li Shaoqing shook his head slightly, and his impression of Yang Yilong dropped sharply.

Li Yi added: "I can accept him taking my boxing skills for free. After all, I am not as strong as him, so I accept the loss. But my friend Lin Yue was so angry that she came to ask for an explanation, and he ended up crippling one of her arms. I will not forgive this."

"What? You beat someone up when he came to you to ask for an explanation?" Li Shaoqing was surprised and looked at Yang Yilong again.

At this moment he felt that Yang Yilong was very strange.

As they are both practitioners at the Spiritual Perception Realm, why is Yang Yilong's lower limit so low?

"Haha, Yang Yilong, I didn't expect you and I are the same, but you weren't ruthless enough, let alone decisive. If it were me, you should have killed Li Yi after you got the boxing skills. Now you are dead and there is no evidence. How can it be exposed one day?"

Wei Bin burst into laughter at this moment.

"Wei Bin, can you please shut up?" Yang Yilong's eyes turned red with anger. Who the hell is the same as you?

He felt that after today his reputation would be ruined.
