Chapter 333 Fatty's Treasure Trove
Heavenly Court, Main Hall.
Yuanshi Tianzun stood in front of the Tianyuan Cauldron, seemingly lost in thought.
Just then, Tian Yuanzi flew over, bowed respectfully in the direction where the Heavenly Venerable stood, and said softly.
"Master, news has come from the Night Watch: Immortal Li has returned."
"I know."
In fact, the moment Li Jie stepped into the capital, the Celestial Venerable sensed his presence and conveyed to Li Jie his desire to meet him.
However, the message seemed to have sunk without a trace, and no response was received.
"Shouldn't we invite him along on this trip to the outer realms to demand an explanation? With those immortal swords around, things will be much easier."
Seeing that the Celestial Venerable still looked preoccupied, Tian Yuanzi spoke up to remind him.
"No need. I've already spoken to him, and it's clear he rejected my offer."
"I see. Since Immortal Li isn't going, shouldn't we prepare to set off?"
"Yes, in ten days, we'll go and confront them. Let them... go and prepare."
"I will follow the will of the Heavenly Lord."

At the Special Operations Unit's base, Li Jie stood atop the watchtower, watching the new recruits training tactical coordination, a hint of reminiscence creeping into his eyes.
"What are you thinking about?"
Xian'er placed a bottle of water in front of Li Jie and asked softly.
"It's nothing, I'm just not quite used to it yet."
"It seems like we haven't been gone for very long."
"That's true..."
"........"
In the training ground, Lin Qiye and the entire Nightfall team were already in place. Under Zuo Qing's instruction, they would be responsible for setting the final graduation assessment for the training camp.
After careful discussion, Lin Qiye decided to lead the new recruits to the harsh and cold western frontier for their final assessment.
Before that, he also made a decision to give the new recruits a day off.
When he mentioned this suggestion to Yuan Gang, the latter showed a look of surprise.
Yuan Gang's consideration wasn't due to Lin Qiye's decision, but rather because...
How come those brats always manage to cause trouble at crucial moments...?
That's right. Although giving leave isn't a big deal, and the head instructor of the new recruits has that authority, it just so happens that Lin Qiye's decision to give leave coincides with the time of the handover between the old and new kings in the capital.
The guardian deity of the capital, the former king Shao Pingge, will be transferred to the Western Frontier in three days to serve as a high-ranking member of the Night Watch and guard an A-level war pass.
After his departure, a new person would have to come and take over the vast capital city.
The person who took over was an old acquaintance of Li Jie and Lin Qiye, namely Chen Han, the captain of the 332nd squad of the Anta County Night Watchmen.
Logically speaking, Chen Han's Forbidden Ruins is only a low-level auxiliary Forbidden Ruins, and in terms of its function, it is impossible for it to replace Shao Pingge's [White Impermanence].
But since he had powerful backers, Chen Han smoothly became the agent of Fengdu Emperor, the ruler of the underworld, under the instruction of 'Li Deyang'.
With this identity and the ability to be of the same origin as Shao Pingge, Chen Han became the only candidate to replace the old king.
That said, when Lin Qiye announced the decision to give them three days off, the new recruits all erupted in excited shouts.
This training camp has been delayed for more than a year due to the frequent occurrence of serious incidents, and it should have been time to graduate long ago.
However, Zuo Qing had already stipulated that this training camp would be fully managed by the Night Watch Special Operations Division.
Therefore... Yuan Gang has no right to announce the end of the training camp.
In addition to Li Jie's 'disappearance,' these new recruits who have been in the camp for a year are almost getting restless from being cooped up in the cold.
"During the holiday, you are free to move around in Beijing. After three days, you will undergo a seven-day graduation assessment."
"I'm letting you in advance know that this assessment will be very difficult, so please be mentally prepared."
Lin Qiye's indifferent eyes swept across the entire room as he spoke in a loud voice.
That's all I can say. Saying anything more would be against the rules.
"Now, you have half an hour to pack your things. Meet here in half an hour, and a car will take you back to the city."
"Disband!"
Then, Lin Qiye led Baili Pangpang and the others towards the watchtower amidst the thunderous shouts of "Long live!" from the new recruits.
"Seven Nights, why did you make the recruits carry swords?"
Although Lin Qiye didn't say anything just now, An Qingyu had already observed that Yuan Gang was sending people to retrieve the standard long swords stored in the black box from the warehouse.
"Some unpleasant things might happen in Beijing recently. They're carrying knives purely for self-defense, and also..."
"We'll set off in three days. Once we've received the sword, we won't need to come back."
"Self-protection?"
"We'll talk about it later. Now, let me take you to see someone."
"Who are you seeing? So secretive..."
Because of the information blockade, apart from Lin Qiye, who went to the cemetery alone, the other six children did not know that Li Jie had returned.
Therefore, they naturally did not know that the person Lin Qiye was talking about was Li Jie.
"You'll know when we get there."
Ding Dong!
The moment the vertical elevator stopped at the top of the observation tower and the metal doors opened.
Baili Pangpang and the others also saw Li Jie and Xian'er standing at the window.
"Wow! Brother Lei! When did you get back?!"
"Just arrived today, what's wrong? Not comfortable living here?"
Hearing Fatty's excited voice, Li Jie chuckled and teased him.
"What's the point of that tiny place? Home is always better."
"Besides, if the Celestial Venerable were to strike with his sword, my days would be over."
As he spoke, the chubby boy was also groping around in the [Free Space].
"Brother Lei, let me tell you, I brought back a lot of good stuff from my hometown, all of them are rare and out of print."
"Here, have some. Men, you know, sometimes get a little lonely in the quiet of the night..."
After saying that, the chubby boy moved closer to Li Jie with a mischievous grin, and gave the latter a 'look down' look.
Upon closer inspection, Lin Qiye suddenly noticed that not only Li Jie, but even his sister-in-law, the fairy standing next to him, had involuntarily darkened her expression.
"Thanks, Fatty. You should keep these for yourself and your maid sisters..."
..........
In Shangjing City, at the base of Night Watchman Squad 006, Li Jie, Lin Qiye, and others sat in the courtyard chatting, with the aroma of roasted meat wafting from behind them.
Where is Captain Shao?
"When are you coming back?"
