I Can Destroy Planets with My Psychokinesis-Chapter 190. Bad News

"Martial Artists with Refining God Cultivation are indeed not to be underestimated."

Even though his opponent died tragically on the spot, Lu Li gave him a very high evaluation.

Despite both having undergone Blood Exchange, this Xie Junbai’s combat power is at least three times that of Counselor Wang!

Holding his own against me with two Flying Swords, he had considerable skill.

Yet betrayal and treason, no matter how skilled, are just harmful trash.

Lu Li never had any respect for such people.

He maneuvered the "Metal Giant Hand" to grasp Xie Junbai’s remains and a large amount of soil and stone, flinging them into the sky with a "Meteor Shower".

After crushing the bones and scattering the ashes to destroy any traces, it was time for looting.

The primary target, naturally, was that thing Xie Junbai cherished most.

Lu Li directly extended his Spirit to sweep through the entire study, and in less than 5 seconds, he had taken out that jade box.

Upon opening it, he found a tempting "red date" Spirit Fruit.

Succulent and crystal-clear, it didn’t look like anything mundane, and Lu Li’s mouth watered crazily, his body instinctively craving it!

"Good stuff!"

Suppressing the urge to swallow it in one gulp, Lu Li hugged the box in his arms.

And the spoils didn’t stop there~

Through his Spirit, Lu Li caught the familiar scent of tea. Upon investigating, he found a tea caddy with two ounces of Spiritual Tea!

"Tieguanyin, not bad at all!"

No one would ever complain about having too much Spiritual Tea, especially since Flying Swords could also consume it, so Lu Li gladly accepted the gift.

At the same time, the Kunlun Mirror had extracted Xie Junbai’s Divine Soul.

A Divine Soul of "Zuowang" grade only needed to be paired with some commoner souls to create another Terminator for use.

With the additional combat experience from the actual fight, this trip was indeed highly rewarding.

Next, he needed to leave quickly. Although the high-ranking officials had left the city, Jinmen still had defensive forces.

Taking a sniff from the snuff bottle filled with essential oil, and with the help of his Heavenly Eye, Lu Li casually walked out of the neighborhood, even idly thinking:

"Xiao Cha won’t be back until noon. I’ll go home and eat some Youzi~"

~~~~~~~~~~~

Outside the city at the Azure Dragon Festival site.

Chen Zhizhong had worked his way up from performing miscellaneous tasks to becoming Chief Constable, so he knew everyone from the Patrol Bureaus, from arrest officers to Chief Constable.

Although he had been slapped earlier, diminishing his authority, the goodwill was still there.

Once he stepped in, everyone gave him some face and wasn’t so resistant.

Thus, it only took half an hour to fully mobilize the Patrol Bureaus, who worked together to evenly disperse the crowd.

The scene became orderly, and the high-ranking officials such as the Governor on the main stage smiled and nodded in approval.

Even the Salt Transportation Envoy, who was not from the same system, praised this temporary stand-in as talented.

However, people were also puzzled; the auspicious hour was upon them, so why hadn’t Governor Jiang arrived yet?

Seeing Governor Jiang’s entourage looking unconcerned, everyone refrained from speaking out and patiently waited.

Meanwhile, Xiao Cha was thrilled that Uncle Chen had made an appearance in front of the big leaders, certain to be put to good use.

Of course, she didn’t dare to hope for a promotion to Prefect since after all, her Cultivation wasn’t quite there, still missing Marrow Cleansing.

But someone else thought differently, and that "Huang Doushi" had a face as black as the bottom of a pot.

Although Blood Exchange was required for holding real power as a Standard Fourth Rank official, such a realm was not as common as cabbage.

Especially since the court also wanted to mobilize forces to campaign against the Governor of Two Rivers, there was a shortage of hands.

Someone like him with Marrow Cleansing wasn’t without opportunities, but failed to secure his place and was outmaneuvered!

Huang Doushi’s vexation was palpable, and his expression terribly cold.

At that moment, he happened to see Xiao Cha’s face light up with joy.

"That little bitch seems to be Chen Zhizhong’s person!"

Huang Doushi was filled with hatred and ready to make a scene, to make Xiao Cha look bad.

But before he could act, the sound of swishing garments suddenly filled the arena, and a figure in a plain monk’s robe soared into view.

With pale bald head, almond eyes, and peach cheeks, it was Xia Weiyun~

"People from the Kill Body Society!"

Du Shi’s expression suddenly turned to shock, and he instinctively stepped back a few paces.

He certainly didn’t have the guts to provoke the madman who bombarded Chuyun Leased Territory.

At this moment, Xia Weiyun walked toward Xiao Cha and said with a smile,

"Little sister, have you been Concentrating? Congratulations!"

Xiao Cha responded with joy and modesty, "It was just luck."

She had thought she’d spend her life as a "Power Warrior" but her man had the skill to help her sense her Sea of Consciousness.

Being at the Refining God Realm is what makes a true Martial Artist. Xia Weiyun praised,

"You have great talent. If there’s anything you don’t understand in the future, come find me at the National Martial Arts Association... Eh, wait a second, your body..."

Xia Weiyun noticed something, and her face suddenly changed!

She grabbed Xiao Cha’s hand and extended her "inner breath" to check...

"Little sister, why didn’t you listen to me? Didn’t I tell you that inner breath is precious and shouldn’t be used carelessly? You not only used it but also consumed [Heart Blood]!"

Xia Weiyun pulled Xiao Cha to the side, saying with deep regret,

"At this current stage, the key is to ’nourish’. How could you use up your Heart Blood! This can’t be replenished!"

Xiao Cha had previously helped Lu Li with Refining Internal Organs, she replied weakly, "Will there be any consequences?"

Xia Weiyun shook her head, her face full of regret,

"Heart Blood is related to your lifespan. You’ve used it more than once, haven’t you? You probably won’t live past 60 years old."

Xiao Cha was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said,

"60 years old, that’s enough. I can accompany him for several decades~"

"You gave it to a man?" Xia Weiyun asked urgently, "Who is it! Were you deceived by someone!"

Xiao Cha hurriedly shook her head and gestured with her hands, "No, I forcibly gave it to him... And I don’t regret it at all."

"You... sigh..."

Hearing this, Xia Weiyun could only sigh deeply and said softly,

"Men are like pigs’ trotters; unreliable."

Xiao Cha suddenly recalled Lu Li’s famous saying about "sharing a bed" and nodded her head deeply in agreement.

After a few seconds of silence in the arena, Xia Weiyun continued,

"A deficit of Heart Blood also has another drawback; it leads to both qi and blood deficiency. You should be able to feel it yourself."

Xiao Cha immediately responded, "It seems like my inner breath is short by about ten percent..."

"That’s correct." Xia Weiyun sighed,

"Do not underestimate that ten percent! Refining the spine requires smooth continuity; missing that ten percent is the difference between life and death. You originally had [Innate] talent, and now even Blood Exchange is difficult."

This was indeed bad news, yet Xiao Cha didn’t show much distress on her face.

Just then, accompanied by the sound of a car engine, a luxurious "Mercedes-Benz 770K" armored car drove up.

"The Governor’s official car!"

Xia Weiyun quickly returned to her own place and before leaving, she reminded Xiao Cha,

"Take good care of yourself, try not to fight with others, and look for me at the National Martial Arts Association if you need anything. Hmm... if possible, consume some Spiritual Objects."

She said the last sentence with little confidence.

Not to mention how precious Spiritual Objects are, it’s questionable whether ordinary people can afford them.

[Heart Blood] is a core bodily function, and this little sister has used it up twice; ordinary Spiritual Objects could probably only provide symptomatic treatment.

At this time, under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the luxury car arrived in front of the stage.

Silence fell upon the venue, as everyone eagerly awaited the "stabilizer figure" of Jinmen to alight from the car.

But the next second, there was a sudden uproar!

The driver opened the rear door of the car, and who got out was Jiang Haiyan?

Then the car drove off...

The Governor didn’t come!?
