Slaying Gods, the agent of the Desolate Heavenly Emperor, starting with the Undying Scripture

Looking at the wounded men, Lei Di shook his head and said, "Your skills are not up to par. Take good care of yourselves. I will personally go to Huaihai for the mission."

Li Kengqiang scratched his head helplessly and said with a troubled expression, "If we don't go, Commander Nie will definitely be furious, and might even hang me!"

Upon hearing this, Lei Di turned around abruptly, glared at Li Kengqiang, and angrily retorted, "Nonsense! You're one of my Special Operations Division members. What business do you have with that Nie Jinshan?"

"Your 'ghostly guide' thing is almost finished, isn't it? Keep working on it. If you need money, just ask Chicken."

Upon hearing this, Li Kengqiang immediately beamed with joy and hurriedly nodded and bowed, replying, "Yes, yes, brother, you're right! It's so good to follow you; we can never spend all the money, not even a little bit!"

……

The night was as dark as ink, utterly black.

Suddenly, a dark shadow flashed past the shadows of buildings along the Huangpu River in Huaihai City, like a ghost.

In the blink of an eye, the dark figure disappeared into the darkness, as if it had never existed.

However, after only a moment, the figure of the Thunder Emperor slowly emerged from the shadows.

His steps were light yet steady, as if he knew the darkness inside and out.

After Lei Di stopped, his eyes blazing as he scanned his surroundings.

Soon, his gaze fell on a ship not far away.

Without hesitation, he strode toward the ship, the deck beneath his feet swaying slightly with the flow of the river.

When the Emperor walked onto the ship's deck, his figure moved like a ghost, silently approaching from behind a bald man.

This bald man is a member of the Huaihai City 007 Squad, named Bald Sun.

Bald Sun somehow got hold of a police uniform, which looked rather out of place on him.

With his sleazy, roguish appearance, he didn't look like a proper police officer at all; he looked more like a low-level thug.

Suddenly, he saw the Thunder Emperor by the river and his eyes lit up.

"Brother Lei." Bald Sun waved excitedly.

The ship carrying the bald man quickly approached the direction where Lei Di was. Lei Di took a light step forward and appeared beside the bald man, asking in confusion, "What are you doing here?"

"To prevent people from throwing things in," Bald Sun said with a serious face. "The captain specifically instructed me to patrol the riverbank because he was worried that someone might get close to the shore. If someone accidentally falls into the river, that would be a real problem."

Moreover, what's most worrying is the possibility of deaths. If someone were to have an accident by the river, the consequences would be unimaginable.

He paused, then continued, "However, the captain also said that the people from the Ancient God Church were lured to Hong Kong Island by the experts arranged by Commander Nie, so they are temporarily unable to attack us."

However, this doesn't mean we can let our guard down. After all, no one knows if the Ancient God Church might suddenly change its plans. Especially Bai Ze; his actions are too conspicuous. If he attracts the attention of the Ancient God Church, things could get very bad.

Lei Di nodded in understanding. He pondered for a moment, then asked, "Did you notice anything unusual during your patrol?"

Bald Sun shook his head and replied, "No, everything is normal." Then, as if remembering something, he quickly added, "Oh, right, brother, I've already learned those dishes you taught me last time, and they taste pretty good! Do you have any new dishes you can teach me?"

Seeing this, Lei Di smiled helplessly and said, "Hey, what's wrong with you? Are you planning to become a chef after you retire?"

Bald Sun chuckled, scratched his head, and said, "That would be the best, of course! Anyway, I, Sun Zhengbing, am a night watchman in life and a night watchman in death. Whatever I do, I will do my best."

"Hey, you little rascal."

Lei Di tapped him on the head. "We'll talk about it another time."

Lei Di stood on the riverbank, gazing at the surging waters of the Huangpu River, a sense of curiosity welling up within him. He turned to his son, Xiao Sun, and asked, "Is the river always this turbulent?"

Xiao Sun shook his head and explained, "No, the river usually only surges like this when there is wind. But today is strange; there is no wind, yet the water is unusually rapid."

Upon hearing this, Lei Di nodded thoughtfully, as if he had thought of something. He gazed at the river and muttered to himself, "It seems that Bai Ze is giving birth down below, causing the water flow to accelerate."

Xiao Sun looked at Lei Di with a puzzled expression, clearly not understanding what he was saying.

Seeing this, Lei Di smiled and explained simply: "Bai Ze is a legendary divine beast, and its appearance often causes some unusual phenomena."

I suspect it might be at the bottom of the river, engaged in some kind of peculiar activity, which would explain the rapid current.

After saying this, Lei Di decided to go down and investigate himself. He instructed Xiao Sun, "Xiao Sun, you continue to stay here and keep watch. Let me know if anything happens."

Xiao Sun quickly replied, "Okay, don't worry, big brother."

Before he finished speaking, Lei Di's figure plummeted straight down like a bolt of lightning, instantly disappearing into the river as if swallowed by the water.

The river water churned, forming a huge whirlpool, and the Thunder Emperor sank deeper and deeper into it.

A faint light emanated from his body; it was a protective shield formed by his powerful mental energy, completely isolating him from the river.

However, even a powerful figure like Lei Di could only perceive a radius of one kilometer when using his mental power.

The Huangpu River is so vast that it would probably take a lot of time to explore it thoroughly.

Lei Di frowned slightly, pondering to himself. Suddenly, an idea struck him, and he reached out and grabbed a soft-shelled fish swimming in the water.

With a light leap, he landed steadily on the back of the soft-shelled turtle, then guided it to swim slowly along the riverbed, beginning a thorough search.

After an unknown amount of time, a deep, muffled sound came from the depths of the river.

It's there.

A glint flashed in the Thunder Emperor's eyes as he controlled the water fish beneath his feet, directing them toward the source of the sound.

They drew closer, and in the distance, a shadow gradually emerged.

The shadow was about three stories high. As you get closer, you see a strange beast, pure white with pale gold markings on its body.

“Bai Ze.” Lei Di’s eyes furrowed slightly.

Before he could get close, the surrounding water began to compress rapidly.
