Alley near Nan Casino.
There were a lot of cops currently securing the alley, and some were checking the ten corpses that lay in that place. Besides them, journalists had also gathered in front of the alley to cover the news about their deaths, and some people were curious about what was happening in the alley.
One of the forensic officers, who was examining the corpses, suddenly said. “Police Chief Luo Zhenhai, whoever did this, they are ruthless.”
“That’s true; the culprits are very ruthless.” Luo Zhenhai nodded in agreement; he was horrified to see their corpses. One person died from being pierced by a sword, one was beaten with a sharp weapon, two others were beheaded, and the rest didn’t even have heads anymore.
*Tap… Tap…*
“Police Chief Luo, I am Xiao Xianglin of the superpower bureau.” A woman with waist-length purple-black hair walked over while talking to Luo Zhenhai and showed him her identity.
Her diamond-shaped face looked mature and beautiful; she had two wide and round purple eyes coupled with straight and thick eyebrows above them; her convex and sharp nose looked attractive; she also had sexy downturned lips covered in red lipstick.
Her figure is already tall and looks even taller as she wears high heels. Her slender body looked sexy in a tight black dress with long sleeves; she had a long neck, a nice curve, and a slightly wide waist; even more so, her big and round breasts stood out from under her dress.
“Oh, Miss Xiao.” Luo Zhenhai smiled while shaking Xiao Xianglin’s hand. “I didn’t expect the chief of the superpower bureau to investigate this case herself.”
“I happened to be near this place, so I decided to come here to check.” Xiao Xianglin replied with a smile, then took out an instrument to detect one’s superpower. But she frowned after trying to detect the alley for a few minutes because the device in her hand showed no reaction. ‘The culprits weren’t superpower’s possessors?’
Xiao Xianglin was surprised by the result, she then used her superpower to recreate that heinous killing sequence in her mind, and her expression kept changing as the images of the incident appeared. Even though she can’t see the face of the perpetrator, her superpower allows her to know the sequence of events.
After some time, Xiao Xianglin suddenly said something to Luo Zhenhai. “The culprit was only one person, and he didn’t use any superpowers; he killed them using a sword and a gun.”
“What? Only one person did it?” Luo Zhenhai and the forensic officer were shocked by her words, so he then asked. “But how can a gun blow those people’s heads off? Moreover, we didn’t find any bullets or traces of gunshots in this place.”
“I don’t have an answer for that.” Xiao Xianglin replied, shaking her head. “Since the culprit is not a superpower possessor, I leave this matter to you, Police Chief Luo.”
After that, Xiao Xianglin left the alley and returned to her car. She then leaned on the front seat and wondered in her heart. ‘Who was the person who did such a heinous thing? And what kind of gun can blow someone’s head off?’
Soon, she drove away from the area and went somewhere else to meet someone.

Nan Casino
“Is it true that the culprit is that man, Nan Yi?” Nan Xinyue asked the young girl behind her. She still couldn’t believe it, even though she had told her that Chen Li was the culprit. She had checked him out before, and he had no superpowers.
Nan Yi sighed softly. “That’s right, I saw that man kill them with my eyes, young miss. But I felt strange about one thing, that man didn’t carry anything at first, but suddenly he had a sword. Moreover, his sword could turn into a gun and a necklace.”
“Hmm? A sword that can turn into a gun and a necklace?” Nan Xinyue wondered to herself. ‘If he was indeed the culprit, how could he do that? Then what kind of weapon is it? I’ve never heard of an object that can transform into various kinds of weapons like that before.’ “Did you follow that person after that?”
“I can’t follow him, young miss. After he finished killing them, that guy suddenly disappeared, and I lost track of him.” Nan Yi replied in confusion; she had seen Chen Li’s superpower test results in herself, and he didn’t have any superpowers, but he could do such things.
“He can even outwit you?” Nan Xinyue asked in surprise. Nan Yi was her strongest female bodyguard and one of the superpower possessors; her father had deliberately placed her by her side after the previous incident in the forest.
“I’m also confused by that, young miss. He has no superpowers but can disappear from my sight just like that.” Nan Yi replied with a heavy sigh.
‘Who is he really? Sigh, I’ll ask him the next time.’ Nan Xinyue sighed softly. “Try investigating that man again, Nan Yi.”
“Yes, young miss.” Nan Yi quickly disappeared from the room.

Tianyi Realm
While the outside world was in an uproar over Chen Li’s murderous act last night, he was strolling around in the Tianyi Realm, embracing Feng Xian’er.
Feng Xian’er herself was mesmerized by the beauty of the Tianyi Realm. “This place is wonderful, Chen Li. I like this place; the air here is also very refreshing, unlike in the city filled with pollution.”
“If you like this place, then you can go in and out of this place whenever you want.” Chen Li replied with a smile, happy to spend time with his beloved lover again.
Feng Xian’er then leaned her body against his chest and suspiciously asked. “Is there still something you’re hiding from me?”
“I really can’t hide anything from you, huh? You can always guess what’s in my heart and mind without me needing to tell you.” Even though Chen Li was ready to confess to her, he still felt fear in his heart; he was afraid that it would make Feng Xian’er disappointed in him. “Indeed, there is one more thing I want to tell you, but-”
Feng Xian’er didn’t interrupt his words; she just smiled, waiting for Chen Li to say it.
“I am a dual cultivator, Xian’er.” Chen Li finally spoke fearfully; he was scared that Feng Xian’er couldn’t accept the facts.
Feng Xian’er raised her eyebrows, then she turned to face him, and she directly rubbed his cheeks. “Are you afraid that I will be disappointed and leave you?”
“En, I am.” Chen Li replied with a nod.
Feng Xian’er looked at him earnestly; she could feel Chen Li trembling and his heart beating wildly. But then she kissed his lips, took the initiative to kiss him passionately, and embraced him.
Chen Li was relieved by Feng Xian’er’s reaction, hugged her waist, and returned her passionate kiss.
After a while, Feng Xian’er parted their lips, and she looked at him again with a smile. Then she placed her palm on Chen Li’s heart area and his palm on her heart area. “I know that I am the most important person in your heart, and you are also the most important person in my heart. So whatever you are, no matter how many women are by your side, I will always follow and support you, but I am the one who will make the selection for your harem members. I don’t want women with rotten hearts and two-faced women to become members of your harem, okay?”
“En, I have always believed in your judgment, so I leave it to you to select the women who will become members of my harem later, Xian’er.” Chen Li said with a smile. Her words relieved him, and the burden in his heart was lifted instantly.
Before long, they had arrived at the bamboo house area, and Xiao Huoli was waiting for them there; then, she teased him. “You are fortunate, Chen Li. She is truly a beauty.”
Chen Li only smiled upon hearing that because Feng Xian’er was very beautiful, many men idolized her, but her heart belonged to him long ago.
“You are also a beauty yourself, Sister Huoli.” Feng Xian’er had to admit that Xiao Huoli was indeed very beautiful, and she was more beautiful than her.
Xiao Huoli chuckled and asked. “Do you want to become a cultivator, Xian’er?”
“Hmm? Can I also become a cultivator like you guys?” Feng Xian’er asked expectantly.
Based on the Xianxia novels and the like she had read before, Feng Xian’er knew that a cultivator could live a very long time, so she hoped to become a cultivator; only then could she be with Chen Li for a very long time.
“Of course! You can become cultivators like us, especially since you possess Fire Profound Veins.” Xiao Huoli replied with a smile as she stood up from her seat.
Feng Xian’er became excited upon hearing that. “If that’s true, I want to become a cultivator.”
Xiao Huoli then took her hand. “I will teach her how to cultivate now, Chen Li.” .𝒄𝒐𝒎
“Alright.” After Chen Li agreed, Xiao Huoli immediately brought Feng Xian’er to the seclusion cave and began teaching her the basics.
While waiting for Feng Xian’er, who was cultivating, Chen Li deepened his techniques, especially his fighting techniques and Weapon Mastery. As for his movement and basic fighting techniques, he had thoroughly mastered them long ago.
