Red Envelope Group of the Three Realms

"Ugh… Argh…"

The evil spirit collapsed to the ground, screaming in agony. Its head covered in cracks like veins and white smoke was streaming out of them. Judging from the way it screamed, it seemed like it was about to perish.

 "Bro Bei, why did you spare him? You could've finished him off!" Xiao'er mumbled as he sat on top of Chen Xiaobei's shoulder.

 "It looks rather unusual. Also, it has reached Eight-Stars! It would be a shame to kill it!"

Chen Xiaobei jumped down and stood next to the evil spirit. He took out a Spirit Cage, opened it and said, "If you want to live, make me your master. If you want to vanish like smoke, I can also do that. You have three seconds to decide!"

 "I… I…"

The dark purple evil spirit had a nose like Pinocchio's and its mouth was like an eagle's beaks. On its back were a pair of wings—it looked, as Chen Xiaobei had said, unusual.

This evil spirit was decidedly reluctant to accept Chen Xiaobei's offer.

It worked so hard to become an Eight-Stars Evil Spirit; he was one more step to Nine-Stars Evil Spirit. That was equivalent to elite with Celestial cultivation. By that time, it could do whatever it liked.

That was why it did not want to surrender itself to Chen Xiaobei and be under his constrain. But right now, it was badly hurt. If it did not relent, only death awaited.

"I… I'm willing to make you my master…"

The evil spirit had no choice and it dared not test Chen Xiaobei's challenge. So, it helped itself up and entered the Spirit Cage.

Buzz.

Immediately, the evil spirit started to build a Spiritual Link with Chen Xiaobei. From now on, the dark purple evil spirit would be like Xiaobai and Sirius; it would form a contract relationship with Chen Xiaobei and remain loyal to hjm forever.

Chen Xiaobei had always been generous to his own people. He took the Dark Purple Rosary and placed it into the Spirit Cage.

"Feel free to absorb the Yin Qi to heal your wound first! I will teach you the Art of Disguise later!"

 "Thank you, master!"

Immediately, the dark purple evil spirit hid at the corner of the Spirit Cage and started to absorb the Yin Qi from the Dark Purple Rosary to cure the wound that it got during the fight just now.

 "What is your name? Why were you after this Dark Purple Rosary?" Chen Xiaobei asked.

 "My name is Qie Loulan… I have been hibernating underground for hundreds of years. I don't remember much from my past…" The dark purple evil spirit said, "I was awakened because I felt the traction of the rosary. I was drawn to it. It felt like it was a part of my body, made me obsessed, made me desire to make it my own!"

"Qie Loulan? You don't remember anything from your past?" Chen Xiaobei raised his brow and said, "I think you look like the Japanese mythical creature, Tengu!"

"Tengu?"

Qie Loulan knitted his brows together, a pained expression on his face, then shook his head and said, "I can't remember… Whenever I try to think about the past, my head will start to hurt…"

"Mm… Then don't think about it anymore. We'll talk about it again when you're better." Chen Xiaobei then took the talisman for the Art of Disguise and put it into the Spirit Cage, put the lid back on and walked back to the villa.

Having caused such a big commotion, Chen Xiaobei went back to explain everything that had happened to Li Xiang and the rest of the group.

By the time they got to the museum it was already noon, then he was caught up in Amasa Mansion; with the ruckus that had just happened, the sky was already dark. Dinner was ready but there were two empty seats at the table.

 "Where are old man Jiang and Ritian?" Chen Xiaobei asked.

 "Oh, after they left the museum, they said they wanted to walk around the city! I came back to wait for your order, so I just let them be!" Li Xiang said, "Don't worry, they have the address to my villa in their phones. They can just take the taxi back. They won't get lost."

 "Since when the two of them become such good friends?"

Chen Xiaobei narrowed his eyes, doubt flashed across his face. He still had no idea who Zhao Ritian really was. But his trusted disciple buddying up with Chanism's spy. That was why Chen Xioabei grew suspicious of them.

 "Why? Is there something with them hanging out together?"

Li Xiang did not know any of that.

Chen Xiaobei replied feebly, "If I'm not mistaken, they might be in trouble! Of course, I hope that I am wrong…"

 "Bro Bei, what are you saying? I don't understand."

Tanaka Tsuyoshi wanted to know.

Knock knock knock!

Suddenly, someone knocked on the door of the villa.

 "The three of you go out from the back door and go to the place where we'll be selling the artifacts!" Chen Xiaobei ordered.

Li Xiang, Cang Jingu, Tanaka Tsuyoshi were all stunned by the accuracy of Chen Xiaobei's prediction.

But they wasted no time, got up and quickly left from the back door.

Chen Xiaobei stood up and walked over to the door unhurriedly.

Creak!

As soon as the door was opened, he saw the yard swarmed with Japanese policemen, heavily armed as if they were arresting a dangerous criminal.

The policeman standing in the front held a revolver with both hands, and approached Chen Xiaobei.

 "Relax. I won't resist."

Chen Xiaobei shrugged nonchalantly.

"Tell everyone in the villa to come out!" The policeman called out, "You are under arrest on suspicion of the robbery of a national treasure. You do not have to say anything, but it may harm your defense if you do not mention when questioned something which you later rely on in court. Anything you do say may be given in evidence!"

 "There's no one else in the villa. I am the mastermind of the robbery. You can arrest me."

Chen Xiaobei raised his arms.

Creak.

Creak.

The policeman grabbed Chen Xiaobei and cuffed him. "Go in and check the house. Make sure to check every corner!"

The rest of the police force charged into the villa and started turning the place inside out.

Evidently, they found nothing. So, they took Chen Xiaobei back to the station.

In the dark interrogation room.

"Name?" The policeman who had apprehended Chen Xiaobei asked gruffly.

"Chen Zhufeng! Z-h-u Zhu. Argh, if you don't know how to write it then just give up. if they find out how stupid you are, then how are you going to be Chief?" Chen Xiaobei said.

 "Idiot! I'm Japanese! Not knowing how to write your name has nothing to do with my IQ!" The policeman roared. "I ask, you answer! Stop talking nonsense!"

"How dare you talk so loudly when you are an imbecile?!"

Chen Xiaobei rolled his eyes.

"What did you say?" The policeman gnashed his teeth, like he was about to eat Chen Xiaobei up.

 "Huh? Nothing. Just ask your questions."

Chen Xiaobei shrugged.
