"It's not your fault. Zhao Youwei had already arranged for people to be taken away as soon as we arrived at Baoyu Village. The people the steward and the others saw later were just puppets."

"This is all to throw you into a state of mental chaos. I can't keep using mystical arts right now. If you get affected too, he can escape!"

"Grandpa and the children are waiting for you to rescue them, and I also need you to take care of me. Li Ziju, are you trying to shirk your responsibility?"

"No, I want to take responsibility. It's all my fault, and I will definitely take responsibility!"

"..."

Shen Qi's words still work.

Finally, they woke up Li Zijiu, who was teetering on the edge of his inner demons.

Li Ziju was completely clear-headed.

At this moment, even the most confused and unclear thoughts become crystal clear.

He picked up Chen Qi and said, "I'll take you to the hospital first. I'll handle the strange resurgence. Don't worry, once you've recovered, I'll bring Grandpa and the children to you!"

"Okay!" Shen Qi was very obedient.

Having deliberately used mystical arts and her heart's blood, she was indeed extremely weak at this moment.

She was held by Li Ziju and dozed off for a while before arriving at the hospital.

Li Ziju watched as Chen Qi finished examining his body and confirmed that he was only slightly weak and had not suffered any serious injury before he felt relieved.

All the people from the Supernatural Abilities Division have been dispatched.

Many more tasks have been released.

All of them are for eliminating the strange creatures.

At the same time, CCTV News released a news story that shocked the entire nation:

"A strange resurgence has occurred. Bookstores, shopping malls, supermarkets, communities, and other public places in various countries are selling related items. Please queue to purchase them. There are sufficient supplies, so please do not crowd!"

"Residents are not allowed to go out after nightfall. Anyone who goes out will bear all consequences!"

"Those who slay strange spirits will receive corresponding rewards. Please register at the nearest Supernatural Abilities Division or Security Division after each slaying to claim your rewards!"

"Latest wanted notice: Zhao Youwei, chairman of the Zhao family, is linked to multiple kidnappings and intentional homicides. A reward of 1 million yuan will be given to anyone who provides valid information about his location."

A reward of 10 million yuan will be given to anyone who assists in the arrest.

This includes all public officials, including those from the Special Abilities Division and the Security Division!

The whole country was in uproar.

Zhao Youwei was recently praised by name.

The Shen family, the Gu family, the Li family, the Wei family, and several other prominent families were also commended.

Now you're a wanted criminal?

This is quite a big change!

Despite their surprise, people still enjoy going out for a stroll during the day when they have nothing else to do.

What if we encounter that?

Providing intelligence is worth 1 million!

If they actually cooperate in the arrest, they'll suddenly become high-income earners.

Many people share this view.

There were so many that Zhao Youwei wanted to kill them with his own hands.

"Damn it, damn it! A bunch of money-grubbing bastards!"

Just now, Zhao Youwei was eating at a roadside noodle stall. He would never have eaten in such an unhygienic place before.

But he was so hungry that he couldn't care less about anything else.

To his utter surprise, the news broadcasts a continuous stream of arrest warrants for him.

As a result, he was soon surrounded by people at the noodle stall.

Even the noodle stall owner wouldn't let him leave, insisting that he wait there.

wait?

Was he stupid, or were the people at the noodle stall stupid?

Zhao Youwei ran away.

In ten days, he will be promoted, and then neither Li Zijiu nor Chen Qi will be his match.

We cannot kill people now.

Otherwise, his decades-long cultivation path would be interrupted, and he would have to start all over again.
