Chapter 35

Continuously running, after passing over a dozen buildings, Li She hid in an office building, evading the surveillance of the helicopter above. Li She immediately activated the Bone-Shrinking Technique from the *Nine Yang Divine Skill*, altering his physique. He quickly took out a human skin mask from his backpack and put it on, removed his clothes, and put on a suit that could be worn in all four seasons from the backpack. He hung an insurance company ID badge around his neck, and had a business card, ID card, and wallet all prepared. In a moment, Li She transformed into a middle-aged man, 1.75 meters tall.

Using the scorching true qi, he burned the clothes and backpack to ashes. He put on glasses and pretended to take the elevator downstairs.

"The criminal has entered the Hongyun Building in the G1 area, repeat, the criminal has entered the Hongyun Building in the G1 area! Request for support. Request headquarters for support." The helicopter issued a call.

Chen Hai, receiving the report from the helicopter, immediately picked up the walkie-talkie and ordered, "Gather all the troops, seal off the entire area! Control all subway, bus, and other transportation facilities, monitor all communication frequencies, and check everyone!"

The helicopter followed Li She's movements, but the troops on the ground were a few minutes behind. These few minutes were enough for Li She to escape.

He infiltrated the subway with the crowd but did not board the train. Instead, he slowly moved along the dark subway tunnel. Trains roared past, creating a strong wind that made Li She's clothes flutter.

Li She had memorized the entire subway network of the capital city. He moved along the dark subway tunnel and emerged after more than an hour. He slipped out of the subway exit and blended into the crowd.

Chen Hai was being scolded harshly. A rough male voice came from the phone, "Major Chen! How are you handling this? With over a thousand police forces and six battalions, you let the suspect escape right under your nose? The deadline for your military order is approaching. If you can't catch him within the time limit, you'll have to deal with it yourself!"

"Yes! I have sealed off all the routes out of the city. Since the suspect has shown up, I guarantee he won't escape from the capital!" Chen Hai defended.

After leaving the subway exit and arriving at the Fourth Ring Road, Li She first found an internet cafe. He applied for an email address and sent an email to the God of Wealth, "God of Wealth! You bastard, this time you've made me lose big time! Deliver the goods! The price isn't 50 million, I want a round number! Signed, Water Maiden." After sending the email, Li She waited.

At that moment, on a nondescript street in the provincial capital of Sichuan, in a car 4S store, the gray-haired boss received the email. In the shabby 4S store, an old computer sat on the counter, and no one would have thought that this old computer handled transactions worth millions of yuan every day.

The God of Wealth, dating back to the Republic of China era, was a group of intermediaries who handled the sale of stolen goods and the buying and selling of intelligence. Sometimes they even issued tasks for the wealthy. The employees in the 4S store were ostensibly car mechanics, but in reality, they were all part of the God of Wealth. The boss, Old Zhang, was the current God of Wealth.

Sighing, Old Zhang said, "Alas, the chastity arch that has stood for so many years is about to be destroyed! Li She, Li She, if you had just gone into hiding, it would have been better. Why did you have to come out now? Why? Old Ghost, it seems I have to betray you this time!"

Hearing Old Zhang's words, the other workers in the store stopped their work. "Boss, that guy has appeared?" a burly man with oily hands asked.

"Yes, alas! After so many years, it seems we can't protect this chastity arch anymore," Old Zhang said sarcastically.

Pointing at the other person, he said, "Ah Niu, notify that person!"

Ah Niu also sighed, took out a satellite phone from the drawer, and dialed an overseas number, "That person has appeared!"

Hearing this news, the other party immediately said, "Good, no matter what, stabilize him first! Agree to any conditions, but there's one thing: meet him in person for the transaction!"

Ah Niu looked at Old Zhang, who nodded helplessly, indicating that they would agree to the other party's request.

Ah Niu said loudly, "Alright, but what about the things you promised us?"

"You don't have to worry about that. From now on, your families in North America will still live in peace," the other party replied.

Ten minutes later, Li She received a reply, "You've made quite a stir this time? But raising the price goes against the rules! I've proposed your request to the client, and they say if you want more money, you have to meet in person for the transaction! You set the time and place."

After reading the email, Li She's lips curled into a cold smile, thinking, "God of Wealth, it seems even you can't be relied on! Meet in person? Ha, is it a dragon's lair or what? This situation is getting more interesting!"

Li She edited a reply, "Alright, I'll set the time and place later. But this time, you help me open an anonymous account at the Swiss Bank and deposit 99 million. The remaining 1 million I want in cash!"

After sending the email, Li She left the internet cafe and hailed a taxi, "Driver, Huifeng Bank on the Second Ring Road!" Li She said the address, and the taxi driver headed for the Second Ring Road.

Seeing armed soldiers everywhere, the taxi driver muttered, "Is there a curfew? Why is it like this all the time?"

Li She looked out the window at the police and soldiers, knowing they were all searching for him citywide. He smiled but didn't respond.

Would a thief store things in a bank? Of course, because his deceased master had once taught him not to put all his eggs in one basket and always to leave himself a way out, a stash of money for a quick escape. Banks were the best choice because the larger the bank, the more branches it had, making it easier to withdraw money.

Li She had a hidden bag in the walls of each of his hideouts. Each bag contained a different human skin mask, representing a new identity. Each identity had a safety deposit box in a different bank, and the key to escaping was inside the safety deposit box.

Huifeng Bank, a top-tier commercial bank in Asia, had professional financial managers, standardized smiles, and attractive receptionists, making it a pleasant experience.

Li She went directly to the VIP counter and said to the customer manager, "I want to access my safety deposit box."

The customer manager knew that anyone who could store a safety deposit box at Huifeng Bank was either wealthy or influential, so he immediately smiled and said, "Please show me your ID and the safety deposit box number."

"J0898." Li She handed over his ID.

The customer manager quickly checked the information on the computer, verified it, and politely led Li She to the private safety deposit vault. He asked Li She to enter the password and then led him to the vault.

Li She took out the small safety deposit box, about the size of a drawer, and was led to a private room.

Li She took out the key and opened the small safety deposit box with a 'click.'

Inside were an American passport, 10,000 US dollars in cash, a Vacheron Constantin gold watch, a human skin mask of a Caucasian, and another backup backpack containing some disguise equipment.

The passport and human skin mask were obtained in the United States, and there was a record of Daniel Qiao in the U.S. customs database. He also had entry and exit records in China. Daniel Qiao was an American backpacker who had traveled extensively.

After packing these items, Li She left Huifeng Bank and found a secluded spot to transform into a middle-aged Caucasian, Daniel Qiao.

Wearing a khaki vest, camouflage military pants, a large backpack, and a water bottle, the bearded 'Daniel Qiao' walked on the streets of the Second Ring Road without attracting any attention. Over the years, as the city developed, it had become an international metropolis, with Caucasians and Africans commonly seen on the streets, including students, tourists, and businesspeople, who had gradually integrated into Chinese society.

With an American passport, Daniel Qiao easily checked into a three-star hotel on the Second Ring Road. He booked a standard room and a meal at the front desk, then followed the bellhop to his room. Daniel took out a dollar from his wallet and gave it to the bellhop as a tip. The bellhop pursed his lips and said in Chinese, "Miser!" He then took the tip and said thank you in English before leaving.

After closing the door, Daniel lay on the bed and took a deep breath. Although he was now a先天 realm expert, escaping from the pursuit of thousands of fully armed troops had left him exhausted.

He sat in meditation to recover his true qi. "Big Brother Spirit, what's the conversion rate for electrical energy? How long will it take to absorb it?" Li She communicated with the spirit.

"Uh, the conversion rate is 1000 to 1! Direct absorption takes just a few breaths. The energy from the 'dragon blood' you absorbed last time is enough for you to travel to five low-level worlds. Why are you thinking about nuclear energy?" the spirit replied.

"Ah, I definitely need to go abroad this time. I don't know when I'll be back. Hmph! Offending the Liu family is like offending the entire ruling class. If I'm going, I need to fully charge the Divine Thief Order!" Li She said with a sinister smile.

"Oh? So are you going to hand over that jade seal?" the spirit asked curiously.

"Hmph, this is a trap. Do they want the jade seal or my life? I want to see what kind of obstacles can stop me, Li She," Li She said with a killing intent.

He took off his clothes and entered the bathroom to wash up. He removed the human skin mask, and the hot water was the best way to relax. After a comfortable shower, he dried his hair with a towel and looked at himself in the mirror, startled.

"Big Brother Spirit! What's going on? Where's my 14-year-old youth?" Li She exclaimed.

"What? Oh, that!" the spirit said indifferently.

In the mirror, Li She was no longer the 14-year-old boy. He had a sharp, mature face, exuding an aura of authority. This was clearly the appearance of Li She after ten years in the *Tianlong Babu* world.

"The time ratio between the real world and the myriad worlds is different, but the rate of physical aging is the same. That means the aging you experienced in the myriad worlds for ten years is the same as ten years in the real world," the spirit explained.

"Damn! So I only spent a month in the real world, but I'm ten years older when I return?" Li She exclaimed.

"Don't worry, now that you're at the先天 realm, living over 100 years is no problem!" the spirit said sarcastically.

After hearing the spirit's words, Li She felt a deep sense of reflection. Indeed, there was nothing more rewarding than stealing qi. This made Li She think about which world he should travel to after escaping the country.

Feeling the changes brought by the Divine Thief Order, Li She was incredibly excited. The first time he traveled to the *Yitian Tulong Ji* world, he gained a body full of inner strength. With this inner strength, he managed to steal the jade seal, which was so powerful that it could directly break the seven-layer restrictions of the Divine Thief Order, giving him enough energy to stay in the *Tianlong Babu* world for ten years. After meticulous planning, he stole the scriptures, stole qi, and obtained the Wang Yuyan mother and daughter. Now he was almost at the先天 realm, something he never dared to imagine.

After breaking the eighth layer restriction of the Divine Thief Order, it underwent a qualitative change. It no longer required Li She to be close to the energy source to absorb energy; it could now absorb energy within a certain range.
