Xingmengguo, 10 o'clock at night.
It's impossible for a transcendent like Tong Jie to have an unexplained physical problem. Li Rui believed even more that it was a kind of intuition from the underworld. Although he had been praying that it was just an illusion, his sister's phone kept reminding him to shut down, and his heart sank.
The time difference between the two places, the siblings kept a video call every day. Moreover, Li Xuan's regular life and personality made it absolutely impossible for her to be offline all day.
Arrived at the apartment where her sister rented, met Wu Xinru, a roommate who also came from Xia Guo to Xing Meng Guo for further study.
She told me: My sister didn't go to school today and hasn't come back until evening. All her classmates have asked, but no one has seen her; Her phone can't be reached, and everyone is ready to contact relatives to report the police.
Li Ruiru fell into an ice cave, but she forced herself to calm down. She kept reminding herself that she couldn't panic! Right, call the police!

The enthusiastic girl accompanied him to the local police station. It was crowded and chaotic, with arrested protesters packed everywhere.
The receptionist was relatively mild and specially found a summer police officer in case of poor communication.
But when he learned that it was just a female international student who had been missing for less than 4 hours, he perfunctorily told them to go home and wait for news. "She must be out having fun or with her boyfriend. Please don't waste our police resources."
Although she had only lived in the dormitory for 2 months, Wu Xin understood what kind of person Li Xuan was and felt that something must have happened. She wanted to ask the police officer to help out as a fellow villager, which was their only hope.
The police officers seemed to have been insulted and were furious, and they reluctantly told them to leave immediately, otherwise they would take coercive measures.
"Even if it's not yet time to report a missing person, you should at least do the registration properly instead of driving us away directly!"
Seeing a group of Star Alliance police officers surrounding him, Li Rui didn't have time to look for trouble and left directly.
The scorching sun felt no warmth at all. Bidding farewell to the kind-hearted girl, Li Rui returned to Green Ridge City with anxiety.

"Meryl, contact the Guard and City Hall. Spare no expense, gather all combat skills that don't require ether! No artifacts or scrolls, just skills! At top speed!"
As soon as he saw his partner's pale face, he knew something was wrong. Mer didn't ask much, got on Aji and rushed to the lord's hall after jumping over the wall.
Li Rui found the steward of the 'Nether Vow' and 'Primordial Blood' merchant guilds.
Volha enthusiastically recommended a large number of bloody and cruel special combat skills, looking forward to the downfall of the sacred bloodline.
Bijer's original bloodline clan wants the genuine and pure sacred blood, but instead seriously warns that the fallen combat skills absolutely cannot be used lightly. Afraid of losing the rare bloodline.
Back at the villa, Mei'er tightly hugged Li Rui and watched with a worried gaze as her anxious companion left.

Blue Star, Star Alliance Nation.
Take sister's dormitory as the reference point. Concentrate your mind, empty your thoughts, let your body feel the mysterious connection of blood veins, and guide your actions.
Fate is indeed wonderful, Li Rui didn't expect good people would truly be rewarded.
The combat skill used at this time is called "Beast Instinct", which was saved by the half-human Luo Wan in the Snake People's action and given to him. He also received treatment while being carried by his teammates to pass on the combat skills.
Mell enthusiastically sought support, and Hogan and Shana both lent a hand, even startling the politicians.
A special battle technique that can be used without ether, also known as "flesh and blood battle technique", has harsh exchange conditions. However, with many people working together, the collective guarantee of their duties finally managed to exchange it for city contributions.
This is truly a good thing that can't be bought with money, it's precious knowledge that can be passed down as a family heirloom for generations.
Xia Daiti rushed over upon hearing the news and forcibly infused several combat techniques into her body using "Body and Soul Movement".
Owing a great favor to Tiān Dàrén, Lǐ Ruì continued searching for his missing sister.

In a state of 'beastly intuition', the entire world is shrouded in thick fog, blurred and stretched into eerie shapes.
Innumerable dots, lines and lights were flashing abstractly, among which there was a bright red one representing my sister. I followed it dazedly until the skill effect reached its limit, and the color slowly disappeared.
Back to normal vision, I found myself in a run-down and shabby community. A few thugs wearing hoodies came up with a sneer: "Yo~ a drunkard, your wallet..."
Before he could finish speaking, within two seconds, they were all knocked down, foaming at the mouth in agony and going into shock.
No more than two steps away, I ran into an old acquaintance: Jimmy Liu, the officer of the Overseas Students Mutual Assistance Association who picked me up at the airport when I first arrived in Xingmeng. He was holding a take-out food bag he had just bought and complained about those cowards who didn't dare to deliver food to the slum area, forcing him to run all the way out here to get his own take-out.
Seeing Li Rui, he was obviously extremely surprised, and greeted him with a dry laugh. The 'negotiation expert' tactics chosen by Yizheng and others determined through heartbeat, breathing, micro-expression, and limb movements: This person is extremely nervous!
Li Rui stepped forward and asked bluntly: "Where is my sister?"
Liu Gan took out a pistol from behind his back: "Li Xuan? Haven't seen her, I don't know where she is..."
He swiftly approached, twisting his gun-holding wrist like a chopstick, causing him to cry out in agony. He hastily shouted: "At my place, at my place! You'll know once you get to my apartment, 402."
~~~~
Through streets filled with graffiti, I arrived at a dirty and broken multi-story apartment building.
It was already midnight. Room 402 was very lively, with shocking and dynamic noise coming out. Li Rui was carrying a chicken-like Liu Gan Shi who was too eye-catching, and the three sturdy men who were dancing cursed and surrounded him with guns drawn.
Seeing the two dirty naked women fainting in the corner, Li Rui's emotions completely exploded. He casually threw Liu Gan to the tea table full of DP and used his full strength for the first time on Blue Star.
The first kill was a burly man with tattoos. The 'Crushing Battle Technique' shattered all his internal organs and ribs, he crashed into the wall like a squashed tomato, juice splattering everywhere.
The second black man reacted quickly and even fired a shot before his neck was twisted off. His spine was brutally pulled out, and his head hung down to his back.
The last black man was stunned by the bloody scene and rushed to the door to escape. Li Rui kicked his leg off, then turned off the speaker playing heavy metal music, locked the door, and gathered the two people who were crying and wailing together.
Just examined two unconscious naked women, fortunately neither of them is my sister.
The rootless rascal didn't understand the language and could only take action against Liu. Still the same sentence: "Where is my sister?"
Liu Gan's actual abilities were not impressive, but his ability to be cunning and deceitful was extremely strong. He fabricated one lie after another, but they had no effect in front of the "negotiation expert".
After cracking 4 bones, he finally screamed: "Savin knows. I coaxed your sister onto the car and handed her over to Savin, I don't know anything else, I swear!"
"Why are you doing this? Hurting your own compatriots!?"
Liu Gan's blood vessels were pierced by the shattered bone fragments, and he cursed loudly as he bled profusely: "I am a true citizen of Xingmeng State, and I'd rather die than be kin with you dogs from Xia State!"
He's not stupid and has figured it out, Li Rui obviously won't let him off. As a medical school graduate, he knows that even if he recovers, he'll be left with lifelong disabilities, and instead starts cursing nonstop.
