I Contracted Myself

Originally, Zhang Ping thought Chen Weihua was well-mannered and easy to get along with, and that they could be friends.

But now, he just wanted to quickly control the Blood Snake to leave Chen Weihua's body. After all, the more information she knew, the more people might get hurt in the future.

"Sister Sisi, is there really no way to bring Chen Weihua to justice?" The more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt, so he asked.

Liu Sishan replied calmly, "Why should we bring Chen Weihua to justice?"

"But didn't she kill people?" Zhang Ping retorted.

Liu Sishan smiled faintly, "She did kill quite a few people, but our investigation confirmed that those people deserved it. Several of them were bullies who exploited farmers, and three were Awakeners who ambushed other adventurers outside the city, causing several families to be destroyed."

"Doesn't the Sweep Team handle these people?" Zhang Ping frowned.

Liu Sishan explained, "The Sweep Team is a secret unit; they can't handle such matters. Even the Investigation Team and Patrol Guard won't bother with these trivial issues."

The Investigation Team and Patrol Guard mainly dealt with Mutated Beasts.

There were institutions under the City Lord to manage such incidents, but without a report or evidence, it was hard for them to intervene.

"So no one deals with these scumbags?" Zhang Ping was displeased.

Liu Sishan laughed, "Of course someone deals with them. Evil people have their own way of being dealt with. Chen Weihua handled them. You need to understand, in Mingzhu City, strength rules. The law doesn't really restrain the strong. What truly maintains order in Mingzhu City is the moral consensus in people's hearts."

Why didn't the Sweep Team investigate Chen Weihua's actions further?

The fundamental reason was that during their investigation, they confirmed that the people Chen Weihua killed deserved to die.

The Sweep Team's purpose is to eliminate any threats to Mingzhu City, and good people are not within their scope. They might even provide assistance when necessary.

"So Weihua is actually a good person?" Zhang Ping pondered.

Liu Sishan couldn't help but laugh, teasing, "Zhang Ping, if one day I committed a crime, would you stop calling me Sister Sisi?"

Just now, after learning that Chen Weihua had killed people, Zhang Ping started calling her by her name. Now that he knew she was a good person, he reverted to calling her Sister Weihua.

"Sister Sisi is different. Sister Sisi would never commit a crime," Zhang Ping quickly said.

At this moment, Liu Sishan's badge glowed slightly. She immediately took it out and gently tapped the pearl on it.

"Sisi, it's dawn. Take your team to Wangzhu Peak now and prepare to ambush two targets. They are wearing blue and red clothes respectively. I will transmit their images to your mind. Execute the order immediately," Situ Shibai quickly instructed.

Dawn?

Both Zhang Ping and Liu Sishan were stunned. Liu Sishan immediately walked to the door and opened it, seeing that it was indeed bright outside.

A giant light sphere hung high above Mingzhu City, its light spreading out, illuminating thousands of kilometers around, making it as bright as day.

Situ Shibai had always emphasized making arrangements at dawn.

But neither Zhang Ping nor Liu Sishan expected that this "dawn" would be such a dawn. It was actually just past three o'clock, still several hours before morning.

"Captain, what about Zhang Ping?" Liu Sishan asked, looking at the light sphere in the distance that resembled the sun.

Situ Shibai pondered for a moment before saying, "Let Zhang Ping go with you. As for Liu Tiefeng, I will arrange for someone to protect him."

"Understood." Liu Sishan nodded.

Although Zhang Ping was a bit worried about Liu Tiefeng's safety, he knew that the safe house was not the center of the incident. With Situ Shibai arranging protection, there shouldn't be any major issues.

Therefore, he didn't oppose going with Liu Sishan.

After Liu Sishan finished communicating with Situ Shibai, she asked, "Zhang Ping, you don't have to come with me. If you want to stay, I can let you stay, since you're not a member of the Sweep Team yet."

"I'll go with Sister Sisi. Besides, I want to know what this incident is all about," Zhang Ping replied directly.

That was his true thought.

Liu Sishan nodded, "Alright, let's go."

...

Wangzhu Peak was to the north of Mingzhu City, while the safe house was to the south.

To get to Wangzhu Peak quickly, they had to travel at full speed.

Liu Sishan manipulated water to form a ring, then created a surfboard out of ice. She stood on the ice surfboard and entered the water ring.

The water ring spun rapidly, carrying her swiftly towards Wangzhu Peak.

"By the way, Sister Sisi, let me test how many of my abilities I can use in this state. Maybe we can catch the enemy off guard," Zhang Ping said.

Liu Sishan controlled the water ring and replied calmly, "Go ahead."

Zhang Ping then began testing his various abilities.

First, he found that he couldn't transform his Pureblood Body into a Pure Water Body while inside someone else's body.

The Fire Eater ability also couldn't be used because the Pureblood Body had no fire elemental energy; all the fire elemental energy had been converted into blood.

After some trials, he confirmed that he could use four abilities: Contract Gem, Wind Whisperer, Appraisal Skill, and Misty Body.

The Contract Gem could be created, but it would appear outside Liu Sishan's body.

The Wind Whisperer didn't rely on ears to function, as the sounds it brought couldn't be heard by others. It was essentially an unknown method of information gathering.

Even inside Liu Sishan's body, she couldn't hear the sounds from the Wind Whisperer, unlike the shared information from the Appraisal Skill.

As for the Appraisal Skill, Zhang Ping had tested it before, so there was no need to mention it again.

The last one, Misty Body, was unexpected.

He thought the Misty Body would be unusable like the Pure Water Body, but when he tried to secrete mist, it actually worked.

He could control the Pureblood Body to gather on Liu Sishan's surface, releasing mist outside her body and manipulating it.

This way, they might have a chance to surprise the enemy in the upcoming battle. After all, who would expect a wild man hiding inside Liu Sishan's body?

Zhang Ping and Liu Sishan discussed their tactics, and then he quietly stayed inside her body, conserving his energy.

Since Mingzhu City was surrounded by living corpses, to avoid trouble, Liu Sishan bypassed the city and headed directly to Wangzhu Peak through the mountains.

On the way, members of Liu Sishan's combat team gathered one by one.

The first to arrive was Lu Han, whom Zhang Ping knew.

Lu Han carried a long sword on his back, and his shoes glowed faintly. With a light step, he floated dozens of meters away, looking like he was using light-footed martial arts.

In reality, this was the result of Lu Han's ability enhancing his shoes. Though his psychic power wasn't as versatile as telekinesis, it had stronger control over objects.

The second to arrive was a girl.

She wore a mask like Liu Sishan, but hers was an iron mask. She ran purely on foot, with a slender and petite figure, yet possessed incredible explosive power. Her running speed was faster than a cheetah, and she had terrifying endurance, running without showing any signs of fatigue.

The third to arrive was a strange young man.

He had a fat upper body and a thin lower body, riding a bicycle. Despite the rugged mountain road, he moved as if on flat ground.

Out of curiosity, Zhang Ping secretly used his Appraisal Skill on the young man.
