"Silver Wolf, how about it? You've lost now, haven't you?"
Bai Zhi picked up the blue pheasant with one hand and said with a smile.
"Chirp chirp chirp!!!"
The silver wolf, transformed into a sparrow, glared angrily at Bai Zhi.
"A bet's a bet, you have to accept the consequences!"
"Little Angelica, this..."
Zhu Yuan walked to Bai Zhi's side and stared in astonishment at the silver wolf in Bai Zhi's hand. She had never heard of turning a person into a small animal before.
"That's right, this is the Silver Wolf in disguise. Zhu Yuan, can you do me a favor?"
"What's the deal?"
"When you go back and report this later, just say that the person you're after has disappeared."
Bai Zhi poked the silver wolf with her finger, and the silver wolf angrily pecked her finger hard with its beak.
"Go back and report that the pursuers have disappeared..."
Zhu Yuan hesitated. This was clearly against her principles, but Bai Zhi had just helped her so much and cured so many of her colleagues in the Public Security Bureau. It just didn't feel right to arrest someone's friend right away.
"There aren't many people on this road usually, so Silver Wolf must have deliberately chosen to drive here."
Bai Zhi pointed to this dark, deserted area.
"Besides, the silver wolf has indeed disappeared; she's just a little bird now."
Bai Zhi teased the little silver wolf sparrow.
"What does a reckless driver who races everywhere have to do with such a cute little bird?"
"That's...ok."
Zhu Yuan nodded somewhat reluctantly. The main reason was that even if she didn't agree, no one would believe that the little sparrow was the guy who raced cars if she took it to the police station.
Zhu Yuan kept repeating this sentence in her mind.
"Okay, thanks, Zhu Yuan."
"Shall we still go eat hot pot?"
Seeing Bai Zhi place the silver wolf sparrow on her shoulder, Zhu Yuan quickly asked.
Bai Zhi paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Eat up, consider it a farewell meal. As for Silver Wolf, you're not allowed to eat!"
"Chirp chirp chirp!!"
Silver Wolf growled angrily, but having never been controlled like this before, she was unable to unleash her original power when suddenly subjected to this shapeshifting technique.

"Little Angelica, because I have to go to work tomorrow, I can't have a drink with you. I can only use a soft drink instead of alcohol."
Inside the hot pot restaurant, Zhu Yuan raised her glass and toasted Bai Zhi.
"It's alright, I understand. You're a sheriff, so you have to stay alert at all times." Bai Zhi smiled, raised a glass of cola, clinked it with Zhu Yuan's, and then drank it all in one gulp.
"Well... although I've already said it, I still want to say it again about today: thank you!"
Zhu Yuan drank another beverage, her face filled with gratitude.
"Alright, it's no big deal. Besides, my purpose isn't entirely innocent. I just want the police to take better care of my business. You've seen my family member, Corruption. He's a bit slow."
“A naive child like her is easily deceived, and that’s when she needs the help of the sheriffs.”
Bai Zhi said very sincerely.
Right after she finished speaking, she felt her phone vibrate on the table.
I glanced at it and saw it was Erosion. I posted a catgirl emoji that said, "I'm not stupid."
Bai Zhi smiled and placed her phone face down on the table.
“I understand, and I will work with my colleagues to look after your company,” Zhu Yuan said earnestly.
Zhu Yuan knew that although Bai Zhi said that, in reality, if the power to heal these wounds were used on other wealthy people, the returns would probably be enough for some people in the Public Security Bureau to give Bai Zhi's company special attention.
Ultimately, it was Bai Zhi's high regard for her as a friend.
And if you receive a favor from someone, you should naturally give something back. This is something her parents taught her: interpersonal relationships are about give and take.
It seems we'll need to increase the daily patrols around the Baizhi company in the future.
She thought to herself.
"I feel relieved now."
"Then I wish Xiaobaizhi a safe journey in the days to come!"
Zhu Yuan picked up her cup again and said heartily.
"Thank you for your kind words!"
Bai Zhi also raised her glass and clinked it against Zhu Yuan's again.
Chapter 462 Jingyuan: Little Angelica, can you cure Moon Madness?
"You're back. Looks like you had a pretty good haul this time."
Inside the Starry Sky Train, Himeko smiled as she watched the group return carrying large and small bags.
"Yes, Himeko-sensei, this world is quite nice, there are no crises at all, it's practically a vacation. It's a bit of a shame you didn't go."
Bai Zhi said.
"Hehe." Ji Zi walked to Bai Zhi's side and patted Bai Zhi's head. "It's nothing. Being on the train is already a vacation. And taking this opportunity, Mr. Yin Zhi, Dan Heng, and I thoroughly inspected the train together."
“Miss Baizhi, my intuition tells me that your beauty has become even more pronounced.”
A handsome, red-haired man in silver armor bowed slightly to Bai Zhi, his eyes seemingly shining.
Traveling through the universe, he has seen many things and people who can practice the way of pure beauty, but when he first met Bai Zhi, he sensed a pure beauty power slowly accumulating.
However, the accumulation of that power was very subtle, as if it were dormant, making him wonder if he was hallucinating.
Now, he felt that something about Bai Zhi was radiating endless pure beauty.
Everything has a beautiful side. Even death can bloom like a flower. This is "pure beauty"—pure, flawless, like a smooth mirror reflecting every color.
He saw the light emanating from Bai Zhi, like a pink crystal flower, constantly blooming, a shining example of the highest and purest ideals.
"Uh... Mr. Silver Branch, isn't it inappropriate to say that? I'm still a child."
Bai Zhi knew about Yin Zhi and the Pure Beauty Knights. After all, she was very happy to see the Pure Beauty Knights in the simulated universe.
To be honest, she really didn't understand what Chunmei's fate was.
Is it the pursuit of beauty?
Or is it about creating beauty and protecting beauty?
Or is this kind of beauty something abstract, like something spiritual?
Or it could be the so-called pure beauty, which is just an idealistic concept; everything you can appreciate is pure beauty.
"No, I can feel the pulsating beauty within you, like a hymn of hope, or a pure and flawless feather. Ah, praise Idrila."
Bai Zhi twitched the corners of her mouth; the words of the Pure Knight were still a bit too profound for a child like her.
Although I am very cute, I don't think I deserve such praise from Yinzhi.
"Miss Himeko, and Your Excellency the Train Conductor, please allow me to travel with you a little longer. The pure and beautiful radiance is shining upon me, and I cannot ignore it at all."
"Of course, Mr. Silver Branch, we would very much like to welcome you."
Himeko nodded slightly. Although many people could not understand the Pure Beauty Knights, there was no doubt that these people who practiced the path of purity were not evil.
Even the last time the train window was broken, it was because of those bugs.
"Hmm, it seems everyone's here." Himeko looked around and said slowly, "Then, the Star Train will start again. Watch your step."
"Hopefully this time it will be a bit normal, Pam..." Pam said with some worry.
Then, after everyone had taken their positions, the train began to emit a blue glow and started its leap again.
"call out!"
In the vast emptiness of space, the Star Train suddenly appeared.
Upon reaching outer space, Bai Zhi felt her phone vibrate several times.
"Let me see who sent me the message?"
Bai Zhi casually took out her phone and discovered that the person who sent her the message was actually General Jing Yuan.
Jingyuan: [Little Angelica, please reply after receiving this message.]
Bai Zhi tilted her head, then typed: 【General, please speak.】
A few seconds later, a message came in: [Little Baizhi, how much do you know about the Lunar Madness?]
"Moon Madness?"
Upon seeing the term Jing Yuan sent, Bai Zhi paused for a moment, and then some basic medical knowledge came to mind.
Moon Frenzy is a special ability that Bu Liren gained after achieving immortality. Simply put, it's a skill that increases attack and defense after burning blood.
However, this kind of moon madness is not unique to Bu Liren; on the contrary, some fox people also possess this ability.
Because in reality, fox people and Buli people are the same species.
On their home planet, Qingqiu, the granting of immortality led to a rapid population explosion within a very short period.
To curb the various negative factors brought about by this population explosion, the Buli people came up with a solution: separating the upper and lower parts of the body. Every newborn would be examined to determine whether they possessed the talent of the Moon Madness.
If so, they are Bu Liren; if not, they are Fox-people, who will be enslaved.
In other words, compared to the Qili people, the fox people are slightly weaker in terms of genes and talents. This also means that even if some fox people later possess the abilities of Yue Kuang, they will still be greatly limited.
For example, the degree of blood burning is much higher than that of Bu Liren, and the speed of self-healing is also not as fast as that of Bu Liren.
Some medical books she had read recorded instances where fox-people and cloud cavalry repeatedly used the Moon Frenzy technique to save their comrades, resulting in a severe shortening of their own lifespans.
[General, I know about Moon Madness. What happened? Did one of your Cloud Cavalry brothers overexert himself? Did you try that elixir?]
Jing Yuan: [I've tried the pills, but the principles behind Lunar Madness and Demonic Yin Body are different, so they didn't work on that person.]
Bai Zhi: [Who is it?]
Bai Zhi frowned. Why was Jing Yuan acting as a riddle solver?
Jing Yuan: [About this person, it's a secret. But she's probably on the Marshal's orders to do some things and, incidentally, meet with you.]
Jing Yuan: [According to the information I received, the alliance seems to have sent two heavyweights to Luofu this time.]
Bai Zhi: [Should I go back now?]
Although Pinocchio is also quite important, Xianzhou's hometown is still a higher priority.
Jing Yuan: [That's not necessary. Those two alliance envoys will probably need some more time before they arrive in Luofu.]
Jing Yuan: [However, Little Bai Zhi, as you know, the rebirth of the Jianmu tree has had a huge impact on Luofu. Therefore, to prove that Luofu is still prosperous, I've decided to hold a martial arts ceremony as well.]
Bai Zhi: [So?]
Jingyuan: [Little Angelica, are you interested in being the defending champion?]
Bai Zhi: [General, are you joking? I'm a commander now, it's not really appropriate for me to be the defender of the arena, is it?]
Looking at the message Jing Yuan sent, Bai Zhi felt it was a bit absurd; the power of the envoy was not something an ordinary person could easily exploit.
It's not impossible for a non-commander to defeat a commander-level being, but success only comes with elite troops and sheer numbers.
Chapter 463 Dream Encounter with the Underworld
Jing Yuan: [Oh dear, we definitely have to suppress our power. Besides, not many people know that you are the Commander, not even the higher-ups in the Alliance.]
Jing Yuan: [At that time, Xiao Baizhi, you shouldn't use the power of the Divine Lord. That should be more in line with your role as the guardian of the arena.]
Bai Zhi stroked her chin and replied: "I feel Yan Qing would be more suitable for this kind of activity, right?"
