Capítulo 1379: Chapter 181: Evil Winds Rise Seeking Freedom, Two-Finger Zen Traverses the Vast Sea
But no.
No one expected it. Three days passed, five days passed, a week, two weeks, and just as the New Year was about to arrive, it still didn’t end!
The Judgent Departnt’s search was nearly thorough enough to dig three feet into the ground! As long as there was a hint of a clue, they would go to great lengths, not even sparing an ant!
Everyone realized that the Judgent Departnt was serious!
In such circumstances, many underground forces in the Lower District, which had thrived for years and had nothing to do with the Red Emperor Army, were unfortunately exposed.
Collateral damage.
But there were too many of them; the Lower District had been a den of vice for years, and who knows how many people were lurking here.
Perhaps even so from the upper levels of Bai Yujing were involved. How could they be cleaned up just like that?
Under such pressure, it even provoked a frenzied counterattack from the other side.
For a while, the Judgent Departnt had constant friction with various forces within Bai Yujing, waging battles daily.
But the Astronomy Association is the Astronomy Association, and the Judgent Departnt is the Judgent Departnt. Even when outnumbered, they still suppressed all opponents and destroyed nurous strongholds.
This was also why Xu Shu reduced his daily legendary bath ti to only three hours.
Because during this ti, he was often called by Xiao Ya to join the battles.
Just endure a bit, let Xiao Ya take the bla.
Unfortunately, despite the exaggerated search efforts, countless small fish and shrimp in the Lower District of Bai Yujing were caught, but the real targets, the Salvation Army mbers led by White and Yan Hui, continued to hide in plain sight, elusive and trace-free.
And the “chanical expert” Voodoo, was even more cunning, having multiple hideouts. Despite Xiao Ya finding his hideouts multiple tis, in the end, they could only destroy a puppet, wasting ti, effort, and money.
Sotis Xu Shu asked her, aren’t you clearly being led by the nose by the other side with all this chaos?
Wasting so many resources and not producing any interim success, won’t your superiors pressure you?
Don’t they give you a hard ti at the weekly high-level etings?
Xiao Ya replied straightforwardly, “I’m well-known; I can handle this little breeze and wave! I will give this city a bright and clear sky!”
With such ambition and fearlessness, Xu Shu didn’t say much and just patiently waited.
It’s worth ntioning that in this city-wide turmoil, perhaps due to disrupting many previously unnoticed small gangs, the reputation of the Judgent Departnt among the people truly skyrocketed, even showing signs of surpassing Bai Yujing.
Xu Shu thought, perhaps there’s an unimaginable sche behind this.
Maybe the Judgent Departnt’s purpose wasn’t just to expose the Red Emperor Army?
But it had nothing to do with him.
For Xu Shu, this period that felt like a catastrophe to others was relatively stable for him.
Back in the wasteland, he was always in constant danger with no ti to develop; now, hiding in the safe zone with the Judgent Departnt as a backing, it was relatively more stable.
Every day was about starting intense training on ti, legendary baths, training, patrolling, and then more legendary baths.
It even beca a bit addictive for him.
In such a focused state, it always felt like there wasn’t enough ti, instilling a sense of perseverance and determination as if even an iron rod could be ground down into a needle.
…
The Saint said: In reading, there is no sense of ti.
Ti flies, the years spin like a shuttle, and in a blink, it’s the end of the month.
January 26, Year 19 of the New Calendar.
Also the eve of the Lunar New Year in the year 2142 of the Old Calendar.
To create a festive atmosphere, before dawn, every household in the Upper City had hung up red lanterns, looking very jubilant.
Below, the crackling sound of firecrackers occasionally erupted, which then attracted a batch of the Judgent Departnt Patrol Team to disperse crowds—everyone knows that in this city, firecrackers are only allowed in the Upper City, not in the Lower District.
This is a symbol of status.
It is also for safety reasons.
But so people just cannot be controlled and others want to take advantage of the chaos, adding obstacles to the Judgent Departnt’s anti-gang operations, even on New Year’s Eve.
At 3:30 AM, amidst the noise of gongs and drums.
A splash of blood erupted as Xu Shu, who had been dormant for nearly a month, stood up once again from the Blood Pool, which appeared darker and more crimson than usual due to its thickness.
Every inch of his skin trembled slightly.
Every pore contracted and expanded visibly, breathing in thin mist.
The thumping of his heart felt like the tremor of the earth, the mightiest engine.
The whole person, exuded an aura of perfection, sharp and commanding.
For a long while, Xu Shu suppressed the urge to roar to the sky, suppressed the desire to split the building in half with brutality, and slightly lifted his hips, activating the upgrade drive.
A light particle screen appeared in front of him.
[Scanning your Curse Seal…]
[Detected that you are already at Level 12 of Tier Three. You will surely comprehend the breakthrough skill of the Third-tier Curse Seal. Conducting in-depth detection…]
“Finally, Middle Stage of Tier Three!”
As the familiar crackling current erged from his underpants, roaming over his body as if searching every cell, the corners of Xu Shu’s mouth couldn’t help but lift slightly.
Even though he had sensed the breakthrough earlier, knowing that the exceptional pain which multiplies during a breakthrough couldn’t deceive him.
But seeing the upgrade drive officially scanning and giving results always brought different anticipation.
The current traveled all over his body and finally displayed on the screen.

“I thought it was strange from the beginning. This situation has almost lasted for over half a month until now, this master technique…”
Xu Shu’s eyes narrowed slightly and upon seeing the master technique ‘two-finger Zen’, he couldn’t help his hand from trembling slightly.
He took a deep breath, slowly understanding his body’s changes.
His index and middle fingers itched, continuously trembling, eager for a fight!
Also longing…
To drain all the water?
Xu Shu couldn’t help but look toward the Blood Pool beside him and reached into it.
A stir, a pinch, a pull!
With a splash!
In an instant, all the blood water in the tub gathered like a howling dragon absorbing water, coiling into a water dragon in his hand, forming a thumb-sized smooth water column.
And not a single drop remained in the bath.
It was drained completely in an instant, not a drop left!
The next second, Xu Shu was still itching to continue, obviously, having not had enough fun with the master technique. His heart felt empty, needing another try to feel satisfied.
Consequently, his gaze unintentionally settled on the side. His footsteps involuntarily moved closer.
This was the toilet cat had just used.
Lifting the lid, the small pool of clear spring water was irresistibly tempting! As if saying, this is the perfect place for practice!
“…”
“?”
Xu Shu’s expression froze instantly.
“Wait…”
“Hold on!”
“No! You can’t do this!”
“You damn well can’t do this ahhhhhh~”
