"Mortal, what are you talking about? I don't quite understand."
"I was merely meditating here and did not invade the borders of your Great Xia. Why must you exterminate me?"
After regaining his composure, Garuda answered tremblingly.
He was gambling that Li Jie had no idea where it came from.
In this way, as long as he denies it to the death, this kid can't just kill innocent people indiscriminately, right? After all, on the surface, he has no enmity with the Great Xia, and he doesn't seem like an enemy force at all.
"Oh?"
"You didn't know about the beast tide that broke out before?"
Seeing that Garuda was still trying to argue, a playful smile appeared on Li Jie's face.
"Of course, how could those beast tides have anything to do with me?"
"But... a huge, ugly lion said... their invasion of the Great Xia border was all at your behest."
"How do you explain that?"
what?
The Chimera actually betrayed me?
"This piece of shit!"
"Oh, so it seems you two really do know each other..."
"No...no...no, I don't know him."
"If I don't know you, I'll call you a dog."
"But it really is just a watchdog!"
"Where is the watchdog from?"
"Olympus..."
At this point, Garuda paused, seemingly unaware that he had already acknowledged his relationship with Chimera...
“You...I...it...”
"Alright, alright, since you're unwilling to talk about it, I won't ask any more questions."
Seeing Garuda's awkward and flustered appearance, Li Jie waved his hand, pretending to let him go.
Just when He had breathed a sigh of relief, thinking He had escaped death.
A sword beam, wreathed in seven-colored light, had already struck His neck.
"Do not......"
When He tried to argue, He found that something foreign was blocking His throat. He struggled to cry out, but unfortunately, the opportunity was gone.
Just as His eyes were about to close forever, a jet-black longsword radiating compassion came into view.
Immortal Slayer Sword...
The Law of Death......
The loss was not unjustified.
After dealing with Garuda, Li Jie breathed a sigh of relief.
If this bird-man hadn't developed a fear of him, it probably wouldn't have fallen to his sword so easily.
"Have you seen enough?"
"Come out and talk."
After sheathing his sword, Li Jie softly called out towards the churning sea.
Immediately afterwards, a lion's head, soaked by seawater, surfaced with a strong sense of stealth and winked at Li Jie in mid-air.
"God of Slaughter...you called me?"
"Who else should I call if not you?"
Upon seeing this, Li Jie laughed and scolded in an annoyed tone.
"I'll let you go this time, but... you have to pass on a message to those bastards behind you."
"God of Slaughter, please speak, and I will certainly deliver it."
"Within the Great Xia territory, even gods are forbidden from venturing; outside the Great Xia territory, it's too close... that won't work either!"
"get out."
After saying that, Li Jie turned and flew towards the border of the Great Xia Dynasty.
In my memory, the second catastrophic beast tide only involved Garuda, a second-rate god.
Now that the crisis has been resolved, he no longer intends to remain shrouded in mystery.
.........
At Shenlong Pass, the seven little ones sat idly on the city wall, staring blankly into the distance.
"Seven Nights, are we just going to wait like this?"
"Otherwise... do you still want to go to the Mist Help?"
"No, I mean, can't we go inside and wait? It's not good to just sit here like this..."
“That makes sense. Let’s go inside then.”
Just as they got up to head back...
Li Jie, who had returned on his sword, had already landed on the city wall.
"What, are you getting impatient?"
He looked at the seven little ones walking back and couldn't help but tease them.
"No, brother, we wanted to go inside and wait for you."
Upon hearing this, Li Jie stepped forward, grabbed Lin Qiye's arm, and squeezed it up and down.
"Good lad, you've gotten quite strong. Looks like you've been pampered by those rich women quite a bit, huh?"
Lin Qiye:........
Baili Pangpang, Cao Yuan, and others: Brother Li knows about Qi Ye's deeds?
"Brother... if you hadn't brought this up, no one would have thought you were mute..."
Lin Qiye covered his forehead and cried out in despair as Jialan grabbed his ear and pulled him forward.
Li Jie laughed heartily and beckoned everyone to enter the pass.
Lu Qiu and Fang Zuo, who were stationed at Chenlong Pass, also came to greet them at this moment.
"May I ask, are you Director Li of the Special Operations Division?"
Upon hearing the question, Li Jie nodded slightly.
"Yes."
Having received Li Jie's affirmative reply, Lu Qiu and Fang Zuo exchanged a glance and bowed in unison to the eight people in front of them.
"Thank you, Director Xie Li, and the [Nightfall] team for saving my life."
"You know us?"
Hearing the two accurately state their team's name, Lin Qiye asked in confusion.
"Yes, the characteristics of [Nightfall] have already spread among the Night Watch."
"Um, I have a question."
Just as everyone was exchanging pleasantries, Jiang Er, who appeared as a ghost, couldn't help but raise her tiny, transparent hand and ask a question.
"What did you mean by 'Director Li' that you just mentioned?"
"This."
Upon hearing her question, Lu Qiu provided an explanation.
"A lot has happened during the time you were missing, and it's too complicated to explain in just a few words. Why don't you come with me into the pass and rest for a while, so I can tell you all about it slowly?"
Upon hearing this, Li Jie stopped Lin Qiye and the others who were about to agree.
"Let's forget it, we need to get back to the capital as soon as possible."
"We are currently facing a shortage of personnel at various strategic locations, so we need to hurry back and select candidates for this training camp."
Hearing that Li Jie and the others had important business to attend to, Lu Qiu did not insist. After exchanging a few simple pleasantries, Li Jie led Lin Qiye and the others on their journey back to the capital.
"Brother, are you already the head of the Special Operations Division?"
In fact, from the conversation just now, Li Jie had already guessed what earth-shattering thing his brother had done while they were away.
Otherwise, given his qualifications, even if he could become the head of the crucial Special Operations Division, it would take him four or five years.
"Yes, but it was forced upon me."
On the somersault cloud, Li Jie helplessly shrugged.
"You have no idea how tiring it is to be the head of this Special Operations Division. Luckily, your sister-in-law can share some of the burden with me, otherwise... I'm afraid I would have run away long ago."
"That's alright... Hey? Sister-in-law?"
"Well, you'll find out in a bit."
Seeing Lin Qiye's surprised expression, Li Jie shook his head without explaining, but...
When he spoke of Xian'er, a bright smile involuntarily spread across his face.
