"2998, 2999, 3000!"

At ten-thirty at night, soaked in sweat, Shen Qiang collapsed onto the floor with a thud, staring up at the ceiling and gasping for breath.

Dressed in pajamas and sitting on the double bed, Dark Department Xiu Ju sneakily glanced at Shen Qiang's sweaty abs, her eyes sparkling. A weight of one thousand eight hundred kilograms, doing three thousand push-ups, three thousand squats, and three thousand sit-ups – it would have been impossible without extraordinary willpower.

Turning her laptop on the small folding table towards Shen Qiang on the floor, Dark Department Xiu Ju said, "They've sent over the behavioral analysis results, they believe if Bianyi really possesses a ledger filled with many secrets, then he would most likely store this ledger as an electronic file on a server."

"If that's the case, Bianyi needs only to set it up so that if the server doesn't receive a message after twenty-four hours, it can automatically send the stored data to some specified addresses."

Laying on the ground and unwilling to move, Shen Qiang took a deep breath, "If the analysis is right, did Bianyi send those messages using a mobile phone? Could we find that server after getting hold of his mobile?"

Dark Department Xiu Ju furrowed her brows, "We've monitored his mobile phone, and there are only a handful of contacts on it, with most being couriers, food delivery, and he scarcely even uses chat apps. He doesn't text from his phone; besides checking the Bounty Hunters, Shenghe Chengxin Yi's mobile client, his phone is pretty much an ornament."

Shen Qiang, lying on the ground with no desire to move, said, "He's always on the move, besides electronic devices, nothing else can provide him a more convenient and faster way to communicate with the outside world, so he must have another phone or computer inside his Storage Ring or Qiankun Bag."

With a smile, Xiu Ju said, "Your guess is right, our people have come to the same conclusion."

Hearing this, Shen Qiang instantly sat up, "Then what are we waiting for? As long as we catch him, I have ways to make him talk."

Xiu Ju looked at Shen Qiang calmly, "Are you sure? Bianyi has a very strong psychological fortitude. He came to watch your game today, and you have to understand one more thing – Bianyi's complicated background and what he actually knows."

"We're well aware that he's not just a bastard blackmailing you; he's also a cultivator. At the same time, he's a broker working for many demons. Given this, can you guarantee that those Great Demons will turn a blind eye when we make our move on Bianyi?"

"Beautiful Miss Chu Qing, do you think the Black Bear Spirit and the Octopus Demon will just let you capture Bianyi and take their secrets?"

Listening to Xiu Ju, Shen Qiang furrowed his brow, anger rising, "So we just let him go?"

"Stay calm! Shen Qiang, you're an intelligent man, usually very wise. Why are you obsessing over the issue with Bianyi?" Xiu Ju said, shocked.

Shen Qiang took a deep breath, his voice heavy, "To you, Bianyi is just a cultivator with a bad record, because he can't harm you. But it's different for me; he's a hanging sword over my head, understand?"

"My parents are now protected and looked after, and I'm not too worried about them. But is Su Xiaonuan protected? Is Miao Xiaoxia protected? Is Xin Xiaoting protected? The answer is no."

"I don't care about the money because I can earn money."

"But if they die, everything is lost, do you understand? In your eyes, I might just be a young male with raging hormones, using my body to connect with them for a pleasant sensation."

"But what I want to tell you now is that there are many beauties in this world, and I'm not so superficial as to want to conquer them just because they're pretty. The only reason I am with them is that I like her, I care about her, and that's why I possess her."

"So don't mock me now about whether I am rational. All I know is that this Bianyi is a threat that I must deal with."

Sitting on the double bed, the Dark Department's Xiu Ju knitted her brows and looked at Shen Qiang. After a moment of silence, she said, "Alright, our stances are different, and so are the ways we view issues. I admit, in my eyes, this Bianyi is indeed nothing more than a cultivator who engages in extortion."

"Now, we have established surveillance and are trying to analyze his behavior. The higher-ups want us to ensure that nothing goes wrong, so you'll need to bear with it a little longer."

"According to the behavioral analysis experts' report, they believe that if we can't find the documents Bianyi has hidden and arrest him now, he will use the matter of your identity to negotiate with us. The most ordinary approach he might take is to use not disclosing your secret as a bargaining chip to exchange for his freedom."

"At that point, we'll only have two choices: 1, let your identity be exposed and severely punish Bianyi, 2, ensure your safety and let Bianyi go free. I think, if it were up to you, you'd definitely prefer the second option, in which case, everything would be back to square one."

With a slight smile, Xiu Ju said, "Bianyi is aware of this, which is why he dared to appear so brazenly in today's public review seat. So for now, you can only endure, do what needs to be done, our people need a bit more time."

Shen Qiang remained silent and got up to take a shower in the bathroom.

After cleaning up.

Shen Qiang, returning to the room, saw.

In the middle of the double bed in the room, a silk thread had been drawn up.

Xiu Ju, clad in pajamas, sat cross-legged near the half of the bed by the window.

"Get into bed."

Seeing Shen Qiang's somewhat startled gaze, Xiu Ju, feigning composure, said, "Many things are still unclear at the moment, and you are very diligent in your cultivation. It's important to maintain a good physical state, so I've decided to give you half the bed."

Shen Qiang laughed.

He got into bed quite naturally.

Then he flicked the silk thread in the middle of the double bed with his finger.

Xiu Ju turned off the light and lay down on the bed, saying, "Sleep now. Get up early tomorrow and continue cultivating, so keep it decent tonight when you sleep. Remember, crossing the line makes you a beast."

After spending two full days sleeping on the floor, Shen Qiang stretched out comfortably on the bed, feeling very relaxed.

Turning his head slightly, he saw the weak light filtering through the curtains casting a silhouette on Xiu Ju, who lay on her side with her back to Shen Qiang, her figure incredibly seductive.

Taking a deep breath, Shen Qiang moved closer, pressing tightly against her back, and his left arm naturally wrapped around her slender waist.

Xiu Ju was startled and said sternly, feigning composure, "What are you doing?"

Smelling the fragrance of her hair, Shen Qiang said, "Sleeping, nothing more, because I know that if I don't come over, you'll definitely say I'm worse than a beast tomorrow morning."
