As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life

```

But for those lawless outlaws who recklessly commit murder, the headache still lies with the Divine Guard Army responsible for maintaining order in Mansion City.

"Bull Demon... is a talent, such talent should join our Temple Control Bureau."

"Moreover, we can confirm the identity of the Bull Demon is not Li Che... The messages sent back by Shi Lei and Hong Yonggang state they personally saw Li Che going to the Heavenly Oversight to start his routine work."

"The Heavenly Oversight is more than a dozen miles away from the Million Gambling House, and Li Che indeed has a solid alibi... After all, a person can't just teleport out of thin air, can they?"

Zhang Lianhao completely dismissed his suspicions of Li Che.

Zhang Xiangyang's speculation that Li Che was the Bull Demon was just that, speculation, which he naturally did not fully believe, preferring to rely on his own judgment.

Now the judgment is made...

It is absolutely impossible for Li Che to be the Bull Demon!

It's impossible for one person to be in two places miles apart at the same time.

...

...

Heavenly Oversight.

Clifftop Treasure Tower.

Li Che removed his hat and cloak and changed into the neat robe of a Heavenly Oversight Guest Official, smoothing out the wrinkles on his clothes, clutching the Thunder Chess Piece, and teleporting to the anchor point left in the Heavenly Oversight.

Even upon returning to the Heavenly Oversight, Li Che still maximized the Breath Concealment effect of the Dragon Elephant Vajra Dao Fruit.

After all, there are experts inside the Heavenly Oversight, and if he did not conceal his aura, it would likely be sensed and scrutinized by those with intentions.

Such as Gong Yunli and Gongyang Liancheng, who oversaw the Guest Official assessment, two Illusory Phase Cultivators not weaker than Temple Office Chief Inspector Zhang Lianhao.

The Illusory Phase Realm is an ambiguous realm situated between the Divine Foundation and Divine Phase.

In strict terms, it can be considered part of the Divine Phase Realm because a Divine Facade is condensed, albeit a bit vague, and thus its power is not as formidable as a true Divine Facade, lacking some pressure.

Beyond that, the Heavenly Oversight has one Chief Supervisor and two Deputy Inspectors, and they are certainly existences at the Diviner Ancestor level!

Although those Divine Facade Experts wouldn't normally sweep with their Divine Sense, Li Che felt that playing it safe is never wrong.

Maintaining the Slumbering Dragon Elephant's Breath Concealment state, even if scanned by Divine Sense, it would be hard to detect him, allowing him to enter the Heavenly Oversight without drawing attention and maintaining his alibi.

"The Thoughtful Willow Wood Body I obtained from Old Master Xu could be worth learning, with the ability to create a willow wood clone and better craft an alibi."

Li Che smiled, his eyes twinkling as he thought of a Divine Secret Technique.

He cultivated the Divine Secret Technique rather slowly, which is why he had not studied this secret method before.

Dismissing the Slumbering Dragon Elephant, Li Che quietly stepped into the warm and comfortable tower heated by the furnace.

Shangguan Qinghong, still with her translucent feet bare, squatted on a chair nibbling on a spicy chicken foot while reading a romance storybook.

"Li, you're here?"

Suddenly looking up at Li Che, Shangguan Qinghong's nose twitched.

"There's a smell of blood? Where have you been, Li?"

Shangguan Qinghong asked.

Li Che, however, was taken aback. Could she really smell that?

Is Shangguan Qinghong part dog or something?

"Ah, I just made a trip to the Temple Office. You must have heard about the incident in Fei Lei City..."

Li Che sighed and said.

Upon hearing this, Shangguan Qinghong's brows relaxed, a trip to the Temple Office, eh...

Then it was normal to come back reeking of blood.

"Qinghong, about the task I took on last time, I've finished carving the wood. You can contact the customer and let them know they can come to claim the Divine Wood Carving."

Li Che said.

Shangguan Qinghong nodded and gave Li Che a curious look: "Li, it took you quite a while to carve this piece, half a month to finish. It seems to have taken too much time."

"The first job should establish a good reputation, I will speed up after this."

Li Che smiled, offering a simple explanation.

After bidding farewell to Shangguan Qinghong, he headed towards his own workspace.

The Heavenly Oversight provides workspaces for each Guest Official.

Even at higher floors, there are higher-quality specialized rooms for alchemy, wood carving, weapon forging, talisman making, and so on, all of which require the spending of Divine Crystals to rent.

Li Che is currently too poor to afford that expense.

Upon reaching the workspace area, Li Che saw other Guest Officials. One who had rented a weapon forging room was a weapon forging master in a short coat, showing off a muscular figure.

When their gazes met, the weapon forging master nodded slightly.

Another was a Divine Talisman room, where a bearded Guest Official was brewing tea. Seeing Li Che's gaze, he smiled and nodded back.

The relationships between Guest Officials are generally good, as they could all potentially be customers of each other.

Li Che entered his own workspace, closed the door, and locked it, overlaying the Heaven and Earth chessboard to block any probing.

Even though no one in the Heavenly Oversight's workspaces would scan with Divine Sense, being careful is the most fundamental character for survival in this world—better safe than sorry.

Sitting in his chair, Li Che exhaled deeply, his gaze gradually turning cold.

"Corpse God Cult..."

How vicious!

It was indeed targeted at his daughter Xi Xi.

"Also, the Corpse Curse Mark suppressed by the Chess Saint's Dao Fruit is of the Eight Extremes level... No wonder I couldn't wipe it away."

Li Che breathed out slowly, a weight settling in his heart, being targeted by an enormous entity like the Corpse God Cult was definitely not a good thing.

The Corpse God Cult did not fear the deterrent from the Divine Sect Branches unlike the noble families and sects in Golden Light Prefecture City.

"If the Million Gambling House has people from the Corpse God Cult, what about the Black Snake Gang that's been watching my family at the alley entrance?"

"Or their higher-ups, one of the three major gangs in Mansion City, the Fishing Gang?"
