Chapter 26: Secret Realm Demon
Qinhai City National Security Bureau.

Special Operations Division.

The groggy brain finally gets a bit of clarity.

Qi Sui opened his eyes, the bright sunlight made his pupils dilate briefly, and he sat up abruptly, his quilt slipping to the ground, his strong and sturdy body wrapped in bandages.

"hiss--"

His muscles revived and a wave of pain surged over his body, causing him to inhale and grit his teeth.

[Vitality: 72/160]

[Mental power: 113/150]

I have to eat an orange first to restore some blood.

Qi Sui looked at the clothes on the table not far away, struggled to get up and take them. Seeing that there were still two tangerines left in his pocket, he stuffed them into his mouth with the skin intact, not caring whether they were clean or not.

After drinking the refreshing juice, green life-restoring reminders continued to float above my head.

It would be great if the secret realm could grow foods that could restore a large amount of health at once.

A greedy idea popped up in Qi Sui's mind.

At this time, the door was pushed open, and He Jingan, wearing a dark green special operations uniform, walked in. Seeing that the boy was able to sit up, his serious expression softened a little: "Xiao Qi, how do you feel?"

"Uncle He, it still hurts a little, but it shouldn't be serious. It's just superficial injuries."

Qi Sui used the name to bring them closer and smiled: "I have to thank Uncle He for saving my life."

When he received the threatening call from Lotus Sun, he sent a message for help to He Jing'an.

This is the only person I know who has the ability to save my life.

However, he was not sure at that time whether the other party was willing to lend a helping hand to him, whom he had only met once.

"I'm a little ashamed to say that when you sent me the message, I was in a meeting and didn't see it in time. I arrived a little late."

He Jingan shook his head, pulled out a stool and sat in front of the bed: "You had already dealt with Wei Tianyu at that time. Even if we couldn't get there in time, the remaining bastards couldn't do anything to you."

As he spoke of this, his eyes became brighter.

Wei Tianyu was a dangerous man with the third-level strength and was on Qinhai City's third-level wanted list, with no less than ten lives on his hands.

Of course, he could easily crush her to death, but in front of a high school student, she was like a demon from hell.

It only shows that Qi Sui not only has a high talent in physical training, but his nature in fighting and killing is even more terrifying.

Even the well-trained third-stage members of the Special Operations Department could not guarantee that they could kill Wei Tianyu in a one-on-one situation.

Qi Sui felt a little uneasy when being stared at by the man, a feeling somewhat similar to that given to him by Sun Rong.

This Uncle He...could he also have some plans for my body?
"Uncle He, where's Sun Rong?"

"Took it!"

He Jingan forced a smile on his usually dignified face and patted the boy's shoulder: "Come to think of it, Xiao Qi, you have caught a big fish for our Qinhai City."

"Then my parents..."

Qi Sui opened his mouth, suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly reached for his cell phone.

Sure enough, the screen displayed dozens of missed call notifications.

Just as he was about to call back, the phone rang again.

"Mom..."

"Xiao Sui...you kid, you didn't go home all night. Where have you been? Are you okay?" Mother Zhang Fen's voice trembled.

Since she couldn't get through to Qi Sui on the phone, she and Qi Hewei didn't sleep all night, and they were out searching all night. When she heard people talking about a fight in the neighborhood, someone died, and even the National Security Bureau was alerted, she almost fainted on the spot. "Mom, I'm fine..."

Qi Sui held the phone, not knowing how to explain.

"Let me do it!"

He Jing'an took the phone and said seriously, "You must be Qi Sui's mother Zhang Fang, right? My name is He Jing'an, and I'm the director of the Special Operations Division of the Qinhai City National Security Bureau. My number is 2053029. During an operation against a criminal gang last night, in order to protect your child's safety and avoid him from getting involved in the dispute, I brought him back to the National Security Bureau. After the relevant matters are dealt with, I will send him home."

"Ah, Director He, thank you so much for your help..."

Qi Hewei's murmurs could also be heard on the phone.

"It's good that Xiao Sui is okay, it's good that he is okay."

Qi Sui gave He Jing'an a grateful look, then took the phone and continued to chat with his mother. After calming her down, he hung up the phone and breathed a sigh of relief.

He Jingan smiled, his voice a little sad, his eyes wandering as if he was thinking of something: "For those of us who follow the path of martial arts, the biggest burden we carry is the worries of our families."

Qi Sui held the phone tightly and leaned against the bedside, saying, "Uncle He, Sun Rong... do you know what's going on? I heard them mention a name, Mo Liao Si Xiao!"

"Mo Liao Si Xiao, just a man-eating beast!"

Speaking of this name, He Jingan shook his head, his expression turned grim, and said: "Xiao Qi, you should know about the secret realm, right?"

"Yes, a teacher talked about it in the national security class."

"The secret realm is actually a passage between our Canglan Star and another world. Since it is a passage, not only can we pass through it, but the lives on the other side can also pass through it."

"Could it be... that Mo Liao Si Xiao came from the secret realm?"

"Not bad!"

He Jingan took the nourishing herbal tea from his subordinate, pushed it in front of the boy, and continued: "That was a secret realm that was exposed in our neighboring province ten years ago. It was named the Black Water World. The practitioners there are all evil demons who feed on flesh and blood."

"It just so happened that the other side of the secret realm happened to be the lair of Mo Liao Si Xiao, and it was already late at night on our side, so we discovered it a little late, and they were the first to invade."

"When Chaofan arrived, they were all hiding in the dark. Although we caught and killed many of them later, there was no trace of Mo Liao Sixiao."

"This beast is at a very high level. There are records of it preying on martial arts masters. It is also cunning and cautious by nature. It has secretly cultivated and corrupted many believers. It rarely shows up, so it is even more difficult to kill it."

Qi Sui nodded slightly, then frowned again, and said, "Uncle He, I understand. Sun Rong and those people are the minions trained by Mo Liao Si Xiao to capture humans as blood food for him."

"Yes, that's right!"

"But, this kind of thing is a capital crime no matter where it is on Canglan Star. Sun Rong's status in Qinhai City is not low. Is she worth taking such a risk to work for the evil demon?"

"this problem……"

He Jing'an sighed softly: "These evil demons have endless ways to control people's hearts. The most domineering one is to directly plant the soul slave mark. Other than that, they use coercion and inducement. Mo Liao Sixiao's method is to cultivate blood."

"By swallowing its blood, one can gain strength, health, life, and other benefits. Those with weak wills cannot resist the temptation to become stronger easily, and will completely become its puppets after swallowing it again and again."

"So, Uncle He hopes that you can understand that if you are bewitched by evil spirits in the future, you must stick to your original intention. Any gift actually shows its value in secret."

At the end, He Jing'an emphasized his tone.

He has come across many cases. Young and talented martial arts students like Qi Sui are the ones that many evil spirits are willing to spend huge amounts of money to control.

"I understand Uncle He. I will never do something that goes against my race."

Qi Sui nodded seriously.

He thought about his career panel.

But this thing has nothing to do with a gift. Every bit of experience gained from it is gained through hard work. Only with this kind of hard work can the feeling of becoming stronger become truly enjoyable.
