The spear shattered a patch of sword light, but it was a drop in the ocean compared to the dense barrage of sword light.

A tidal wave of blades surged forth, and Liu Xiaogang twisted his body with all his might to dodge the barrage of attacks.

But his body was still covered in bloody wounds, and his clothes were torn to shreds.

"Brother Xiaogang, don't move! I'll stop the bleeding right away!"

Si Xiaobei immediately picked up the prepared first aid kit, took out bandages, and began to give Liu Xiaogang a simple bandage.

"Phew~ Luckily the wounds aren't deep, a bandage will do, no need for stitches."

"That's great." Liu Xiaogang gave a wry smile, realizing he had been outmaneuvered by a newcomer who had just arrived.

Sigh, who can I blame? It was a friendly competition, so I can only blame myself.

Ye Yiqing put the knife away and came over to check on Liu Xiaogang.

"Little Gangzi, here's how you show off, okay?"

Feng Xuan walked over with a smile and patted Liu Xiaogang on the shoulder.

"Hey, you, ouch..."

Just as Liu Xiao was about to get angry, he was unable to speak because of the pain from his wounds.

Ye Yiqing was supporting Liu Xiaogang when she suddenly felt something approaching. She turned her head and saw Xinglan rushing over excitedly.

Wow! Your swordsmanship is so cool! Who taught you? Can you teach me?

"And another thing, is that sword a demon sword? A sword that generated demonic energy because it killed too many people!"

"Uh, this..." Ye Yiqing was a little embarrassed when faced with Xinglan's question.

My eyes were filled with starry blue, and then someone suddenly patted me on the head.

"Ouch! Captain, what are you doing...?"

Xinglan covered her head and looked at Sun Hai with a wronged expression.

"Stop fooling around, or the victory celebration for Hera will be ruined."

As he spoke, he pointed upwards.

Xinglan then realized, "Oh, right! We still need to throw a victory celebration for Hera!"

"You guys go first, I need to accompany Brother Xiaogang to the infirmary for his treatment."

Si Xiaobei addressed the group, then looked towards Nanming, but there was no one there.

"Hey? Where are Brother Nanming and Sister Hera?"

Si Xiaobei looked around, but still couldn't find them.

Xinglan looked around, but still couldn't see them.

"Oh, they went upstairs to prepare first, and Ye Ciqing followed them."

Ye Yiqing spoke to the crowd.

"Oh, let's go then! Don't keep them waiting!" With that, Xinglan took the lead and walked upstairs.

"Then I'll be going now, thank you for your help." Ye Yiqing said to Si Xiaobei and followed her upstairs.

"No trouble at all, no trouble at all," Si Xiaobei waved her hand.

"Goodbye, Xiao Gangzi! Don't worry, I'll leave you a few bones so you can thank me properly~"

Feng Xuan waved to Liu Xiaogang, then put his hands in his pockets and walked away with a flourish.

Liu Xiaogang's eyelids twitched as he looked at Fengzi. "Fengzi, you should be glad that I'm injured now and can't stab you with a gun."

Inside the barbershop.

"Wow~ You've prepared so much food, it's almost like a Manchu Han Imperial Feast, can we finish it all?"

Ye Ciqing looked at the dozens of dishes on the large table and clicked his tongue in amazement.

Hera, meanwhile, was lying on the table, her eyes fixed on the delicious food.

"We can finish it, after all, we have two super big eaters here."

Nanming placed the last two dishes on the table, then smiled gently at Hera, who was practically drooling with envy.

"Don't worry, we can eat when they arrive."

"Mmm." Hera nodded obediently.

"I'm here! Wow, so much food!"

Xinglan arrived right after I finished speaking. Looking at the table full of delicious food, I almost drooled.

“Hera, we’re in for a treat today!” Xinglan sat down next to Hera.

Then the rest of the people arrived one after another.

Ye Yiqing sat down on the other side of Hera, leaning against her, and Ye Ciqing sat down next to Ye Yiqing.

Everyone took their seats, but no one touched their chopsticks; instead, they waited patiently.

"Hey? Why haven't you guys eaten yet...?"

Si Xiaobei helped Liu Xiaogang over, and seeing that no one had moved, she was somewhat at a loss.

"Oh, Xiao Bei, you're being too polite." Liu Xiaogang put his arm around Si Xiao Bei.

"Everyone will definitely wait until everyone arrives before eating together."

"Yes, yes, yes! Xiao Bei, come and eat quickly, Hera and I can't wait!"

Si Xiaobei nodded hurriedly and walked over.

Of the remaining two seats, I sat down next to Nanming without hesitation.

Liu Xiaogang reluctantly sat down next to Fengxuan.

Upon seeing Ye Yiqing sitting next to Hera, her body and heart trembled violently.

Then I heard something break.

Feng Xuan sighed and gently patted Liu Xiaogang's shoulder.

"Gangzi, we need to be open-minded and not put all our eggs in one basket, right?"

Feng Xuan seemed to be giving earnest advice, but only after removing the corners of his mouth from his smile.

"Alright, everyone, listen to me."

Sun Hai, who was sitting in the main seat, suddenly spoke and raised his wine glass.

"Today, Hera and the Ye brothers, friends of our special investigation team, officially join our team."

"Although I have had different experiences and met different people and things before."

"But once you join our team, we become comrades-in-arms, family."

"On behalf of the special investigation team, I welcome you all."

"welcome!"

"welcome……"

The others also raised their glasses in a warm welcome.
