Chapter 521: [393] Cultivation Breakthrough! Attribute Points Surpass Another Level! (Seeking Monthly Votes and Recommendations)_2
Harbor City expressed its regret over the incident at Yuwen’s Business Group, and after a full day of searching, they still couldn’t find the whereabouts of the murderer.
All the wanted posters had been plastered throughout the streets of the city, but unfortunately, Pei Jinye and his two companions had all undergone a disguise.
The surveillance equipment in the business group was seriously damaged, which caused great trouble for the officials of Harbor City.
“Still no sign of them?” A middle-aged man frowned deeply in the monitoring room of the Night Patrol Department.
“All related equipment has been sabotaged, Captain. I even suspect that this might be a carefully planned murder. I suggest we start by investigating Yuwen’s rivals,” a young man next to him suggested.
“A family that big is bound to have some adversaries, if we really start investigating, it’s going to cause too much commotion,” someone said with a frown.
The middle-aged man’s brows showed no sign of relaxing.
The sabotage of the surveillance equipment meant they had no facial features of the murderer… and there were special Sealing Objects inside the business group, prohibiting any side-profile sketching.
“This case is quite tricky.”
It was on this day.
Pei Jinye did a divination for himself.
The omen was quite ominous.
“An ominous divination? A disaster of blood and light?”
Pei Jinye did another divination for traveling.
“Suitable to travel.”
In a mix of surprise and uncertainty.
He also did a divination for Jiang Xinrun, which indicated that staying here would bring a disaster of blood and light to them all.
Without hesitation, Pei Jinye secretly hacked into an underground cybercafe to serve as his “eyes,” then immediately used Flash Escape to leave without delay.
After landing, he did another divination.
Nothing happened.
This indicated the disappearance of the disaster of blood and light.
Pei Jinye, looking at the dissipated blood-like light on the turtle shell, was immediately filled with bewilderment… If he truly had stayed in Harbor City, what would have happened?
Upon reaching the back mountain.
Pei Jinye gulped down three tubes of Blue Potion to recover his spiritual power.
Afterwards, he observed secretly through Harbor City’s “eyes.”
Three hours later, at a certain moment.
He “saw” a sudden appearance of golden-red light in the sky, and a pair of extremely large golden-red wings unfolding.
The Seraphim from the Investigation Team had actually arrived in Harbor City!!!
In shock, Pei Jinye quickly severed the signal.
Because almost instantly, the other party had discovered him, this kind of keen perceptual power was truly frightening.
But unfortunately…
The other party was not from the Psychic Network System.
…
“We welcome you, Seraphim!”
The experts from Harbor City’s Military Department almost instantly appeared before the Seraphim.
The Seraphim paid them no attention, slightly raised his eyebrows; he sensed someone was secretly spying, but before he could act, the spying sensation disappeared.
Ignoring the officials from Harbor City, the Seraphim vanished on the spot. The people present were all shocked and puzzled, and hurriedly followed.
When they arrived, they discovered it was an unlicensed underground cybercafe.
The cafe owner, holding a bowl of instant noodles, was completely dumbfounded. It was his first time seeing so many high-ranking officials before him.
What shocked him even more was that a being with wings on its back suddenly extended its hand, and he lost consciousness.
The scalding noodle broth spilled all over the floor.
The Seraphim slowly released his hand and raised his eyebrows slightly again: “Not him?”
“Seraphim, is the person you’re looking for here?” A Military Department expert of Extraordinary Fourth Rank cautiously asked.
The Seraphim looked at him expressionlessly, “I am concerned about the public security in Harbor City.”
Everyone present trembled with fear and unease.
The Seraphim left in a flash.
He did not need to explain himself to these people.
It was also on this day that the official circles of Harbor City were shaken by an earthquake; aside from the Governor, more than a dozen officials were held accountable.
In the midst of the lively discussions amongst the city’s residents, no one noticed that an underground cybercafe had also been struck with disaster.
And of all this, Pei Jinye knew nothing at all.
…
[Today’s Divination: Peaceful.]
“No incidents are also a blessing,” Pei Jinye sighed softly and continued to perform divinations for his elderly parents at home.
[Today’s divination: auspicious.]
The turtle shell showed a faint red hue.
“Could it be that the elder couple will encounter some good fortune?”
Pei Jinye was somewhat surprised and doubtful.
He observed quietly.
He was currently unable to ascertain the extent of good or bad luck in the divination.
He could only rely on whether the red light on the turtle shell was dazzling or not for a simple judgement… But as for what the good or bad omen specifically pertained to, he had no idea.
The elderly couple became the natural subjects of the experiment.
Under Pei Jinye’s watchful eye, the elder couple just happened to come out of the hospital and encountered a car accident on the way—though it was someone else’s accident.
Mother Pei couldn’t stand by and watch, so the two teamed up to rescue the old man involved in the accident and sent him to the hospital in time, saving his life.
The family of the elderly man arrived, and to express their gratitude to the elder couple, they gave them a check for a million dollars.
“A faint red sign of good fortune equals a million dollars?”
Pei Jinye withdrew his gaze.
However, he was greatly shocked that they didn’t try to swindle the others.
“It seems there are indeed more good people in this world.”
…
As the political scene in Harbor City was shaking, Pei Jinye acquired a [Soul · Variant] Extraordinary Gene Fragment today.
“Master, someone from the Western Continent has sent a letter.”
Zhong Xuan respectfully reported that day.
“What is it about?” Pei Jinye, eating his medicinal meal leisurely, had become somewhat delighted with hunting after getting the Divination Turtle Shell and had tried many times, causing a considerable drain on his spiritual power.
“The other party didn’t say, they just gave a token and said they hoped they could meet you.” Zhong Xuan handed over a feather.
Pei Jinye recognized at a glance that the other party was from the Western Continent Huang family.
But…
“I’m not available, no meeting.”
Zhong Xuan was already accustomed to this.
Upon hearing that he was refused, the Huang family’s messenger was shocked.
“Does your master even realize I’m from the Huang family?”
“Who you are born to and whether my master sees you are two different matters, I’m sorry, but my master is in seclusion and has already refused all visitors, no offense.” Zhong Xuan turned and left.
The Huang family’s messenger stood there, stunned.
“What gives the Jiang family the right to be so arrogant!”
Before long, another two days passed.
Pei Jinye acquired another [Soul · Variant] Extraordinary Gene Fragment.
It was also on this day.
Harbor City was no longer under martial law.
Jiang Xinrun sent a coded order from his side, saying that he had gone to sea with his team and Qi Zhonglu, agreeing to reply after ten hours; if there was no reply, it meant they had encountered an accident.
He also left a message: If captured, they would consume poison on the spot and would not drag the family down with them.
Pei Jinye silently turned off the communicator.
Under the moonlight.
The silhouette of the Fifth Golden Lotus began to appear increasingly full.
Soon.
It completely solidified!
From this moment on, Pei Jinye had impressively cultivated the “Mixed Yuan Twelve Lotuses” to the Fifth Lotus!
Vitality roared through him like thunder.
Vast and surging like rivers.
Strength in his limbs and bones kept climbing relentlessly.
Pei Jinye even let out an uncontrollable sound of joy.
This feeling lasted for over a minute before gradually subsiding.
He pulled up the attribute panel.
As expected.
The [Vitality Value] field was updated!
[710-710]!
Attribute Points broke through 700 for the first time!
