A technologically powerful nation: The national treasure is actually myself.

"Oh, that's fine."

In the end, the short and fat old man did not refuse Shang Chengfeng's request and said, "I can only hold this little girl for another ten minutes at most."

"Ten minutes is enough, thank you sir!"

Zhang Bu thanked him repeatedly, then boarded the spaceship and rushed back to the Linyang Villa in the Shang family.

As soon as he landed, Zhang Bu bowed directly to Lin Yang: "Please, sir, save my eldest daughter!"

He let the short and fat old man hold Shang Qingluo alive so that he could rush back and ask Lin Yang to save him.

"Zhang Bu."

Lin Yang said:
"I also know about what happened at the Lebo Mine, but unfortunately, I can't save Miss Shang."

"Ah? How, how could this happen?!" Zhang Bu was stunned.

In his heart, Lin Yang is almost omnipotent.

The treatment was incredible.

But now...

"Zhang Bu, it's not that I don't want to save her, but I really can't save her now. Miss Shang's life was taken away by the power of the black mist. It's not an ordinary injury. What the old man said just now is right. There is almost no one in the world who can save her."

Lin Yang sighed.

He was also observing from a distance just now.

That's why Shang Chengfeng was arranged to go there in time, allowing the short and fat old man to kill the two people from the Tang family because of his love for talent.

But he really couldn't solve Shang Qingluo's problem now.

The black fog directly drained Shang Qingluo's vitality.

It's a very strange power.

Zhang Bu became somewhat distraught after hearing this: "Sir, is there no hope at all?"

Even Lin Yang said that he couldn't save her, which made him feel desperate, but he was still reluctant to give up.

Lin Yang paused and said slowly: "The vitality has been directly extracted. If we want to save him, there is a way."

Zhang Bu was instantly overjoyed.

"Don't be happy yet."

Lin Yang glanced at Zhang Bu and said in a serious tone:

"Miss Shang's current condition can probably only be cured by a being whose life characteristics have reached the peak. Unfortunately, as far as I know, there is no such being at present."

Zhang Bu suddenly lost consciousness again.

"Zhang Bu."

Lin Yang then said:
"However, although there is no such top existence in the world, there is still a piece of news that can barely be called good news."

Seeing Zhang Bu's eyes full of hope again, Lin Yang said slowly:
"That is, Chengfeng has extremely high talent, maybe he can reach that level in the future."

"Now, you need to find a good enough hibernation device for Miss Shang, so that she can enter an endless hibernation. If Chengfeng can reach that level in the future, there may still be a chance to save her."

Zhang Bu shuddered all over and said, "Thank you for your guidance! I'll go get the hibernation capsule right away!"

"Don't worry. Miss Shang's vitality has been drained away. The remaining vitality is not enough to support a long period of hibernation. Therefore, you need to replenish your vitality as soon as possible, otherwise the hibernation will be useless."

Lin Yang called Zhang Bu again and took out a high-quality spiritual universal substance and gave it to him:

"But I don't have a good way to replenish vitality right now. You give this thing to the old man first and ask him to inject it into Miss Shang's body to nourish her body temporarily. I will think of a solution later."

"This is..." Zhang Bu looked at the high-grade spiritual substance and once again felt the same feeling as when he saw the top-grade spiritual universal substance.

Although the feeling was not as strong as it was at that time, he still understood instantly that this substance was also unimaginably precious.

"Your Excellency, I..."

Zhang Bu opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but Lin Yang waved his hand and said, "Go quickly, and remember not to say it was given by me."

"Understood!" Zhang Bu bowed deeply and quickly returned to the Lebo mining area.

"It seems that I need to improve my life characteristics."

After Zhang Bu left, Lin Yang whispered.

He took out the high-level spiritual universal substance and was not afraid that the short and fat old man would snatch it away.

Firstly, he asked Chengfeng to go over just now in order to show off Shang Chengfeng's own talents and characteristics, so that the short and fat old man would be interested in his talent.

The other party did see Shang Chengfeng's talent and wanted to take him as his disciple as he had planned.

Then, there is no way that the short and fat old man would miss such a great opportunity to take Shang Chengfeng as his disciple just for the sake of this high-level spiritual universal substance in front of him.

Furthermore, if the responsibility is put on the mysterious and powerful Gu Yinxing, the short and fat old man will also have reservations.

As for why the mysterious strong man gave the merchant a high-level spiritual universal substance, it depends on Zhang Bu's own ability to make up stories.

"That old man is at least in the Spirit Realm, and should be stronger than me. It is not suitable for me to expose myself directly for the time being. I will observe him for a while."

Lin Yang made such arrangements because he wanted to observe the strength of the spiritual realm masters in the universe through this short and fat old man.

He could certainly have disguised himself and been there in person, but afterwards he would not be able to stay in the business using Lin Yang's identity and continue to contact the other party.

Once he uses his spiritual power to interact with the other party, and then returns to his identity as Lin Yang to have close contact with the other party, even if he hides his spiritual power, the other party will definitely be able to detect something unusual.

But if he did not take action and directly concealed his spiritual power, the short and fat old man would almost certainly notice something unusual.

There is a huge difference between hiding after taking action and hiding without taking action.

Because his strength was not far beyond that of the short and fat old man, once he made a move, even if he was hiding, he would not be able to escape the keen perception of the spiritual realm strong man himself.

This is the intuition of a strong person.

Just like the sixth sense of ordinary people.

Therefore, Lin Yang did not show up at the Lebo mining area to take action.

……

Lebo mining area.

Zhang Bu returned soon.

He moved a hibernation capsule from the spaceship and came to Shang Qingluo.

Seeing this, the short and fat old man couldn't help but say: "Boy, you want to prolong the life of this little girl by putting her into hibernation, right? This won't work."

"I know."

Zhang Bu nodded, then took out the high-level spiritual universal material that Lin Yang gave him and said:
"Please help me inject this substance into my young lady's body to nourish her body. With this substance and hibernation, my young lady can extend her life as much as possible."

"Huh? This is..."

The short and fat old man was startled for a moment:
"Spiritual universal substance? Moreover, it is of high quality?!"

He looked at Zhang Bu suddenly and asked excitedly: "Where did you get this thing?"

Zhang Bu looked at the short and fat old man's excited expression and did not answer directly. Instead, he scratched his head and asked in a pretentious manner, "Is this thing very valuable?"

"precious?"

The short and fat old man raised his voice a lot:
"It's more than valuable!"

"This is a spiritual universal substance, and it is of high quality!"

"Of course, you may not understand what spiritual universal substance is. Let me put it another way."

The short and fat old man glanced at Zhang Bu and said with emotion:

"This thing is a rare treasure for those who are above the extraordinary level!"

"Normally, you're lucky to get some ordinary quality ones, and you're extremely lucky to get some mid-level quality ones."

"As for this high-quality..."

"To be honest, only a few of these things are kept in the Alliance, and they are used to save lives at critical moments!"

"You say, is it valuable or not?"

The short and fat old man was very shocked to see a high-quality spiritual universal substance here!

"This..." Zhang Bu was shocked again when he heard this!

He knew it was precious.

But, I didn’t know it was so precious!

Even in the Human Alliance, there are only a few!
"Mr. Lin Yang actually used such a valuable item to save the eldest lady and Master Chengfeng."

At this moment, Zhang Bu's heart was filled with endless gratitude towards Lin Yang.

The short and fat old man then continued with emotion:
"It is said that there is a kind of top-grade quality, which is like a sacred object, extremely crystal clear, and the spiritual power inside is pure to the extreme. Even a little bit of it can extend the life of ordinary people."

"However, no one has ever seen it with their own eyes. Some even suspect that the best quality spiritual universal substances may have become extinct several epochs ago, and that the world will never produce the best quality spiritual universal substances again."

Zhang Bu's heart trembled again in an instant, and the shock in his heart reached its peak at this moment.

"It's like a sacred object, crystal clear?" "Isn't that... the substance that Lord Lin Yang often uses to treat Master Chengfeng..."

Zhang Bu was stunned!
There was endless shock in my heart.

"Mr. Lin Yang... actually used this magical item to heal Young Master Chengfeng, but never asked for anything in return..."

Zhang Bu's eyes suddenly turned red.

He had only relied on his own feelings to know that the material Lin Yang took out would be very precious.

But I never expected that it was so precious to an unimaginable degree!

However, Lin Yang never mentioned these.

He just continued to treat Shang Chengfeng day after day.

"Mr. Lin Yang, your kindness is so great... I can never repay you in this lifetime!"

Zhang Bu was deeply touched and couldn't help but look at Shang Chengfeng.

I plan to wait until Shang Chengfeng recovers and then tell him everything Lin Yang has done and paid for them!

"Boy, what are you daydreaming about?"

After the short and fat old man finished his sigh, he preached to Zhang:
"You haven't answered my question yet. Where did you get this thing?"

"This... was given to me by an adult. He said that this substance can be injected into the body to save life at a critical moment!"

Zhang Bu took a deep breath and began to make up a story:
"That gentleman liked Master Chengfeng very much. He treated Master Chengfeng and gave him this item as a gift."

Hearing this, the short and fat old man's eyes flashed: "Oh? When did you meet him? Where did you meet him?"

"It was the time when Guyin Star was invaded by aliens and we encountered it by chance after returning to Qianpan Star." Zhang Bu replied.

The highest level of lying is nine truths and one lie.

What he said was basically the truth, except that Lin Yang was replaced by the mysterious and powerful man from Gu Yinxing.

"Oh...what does the other person look like?" the short and fat old man asked again.

"This... there is an inexplicable power on that adult. I can't see his face clearly, and can only see a blurry figure." Zhang Bu said again.

What he said was also the appearance that Lin Yang showed when he faced those generals. Those generals could only see a blurry figure at that time.

The short and fat old man suddenly had an idea: "Could it be that mysterious strong man on Gu Yin Star?"

Immediately, he asked again: "Did that strong man leave you contact information?"

"No." Zhang Bu shook his head. "After that gentleman treated Master Changfeng, he said he had something urgent to do and left in a hurry. He just said that he would come back to see Master Chengfeng when he has time."

"Alas... What a pity! If only I had come a few months earlier!" The short and fat old man suddenly felt regretful.

Immediately, without saying anything more, he glanced at the high-level spiritual universal substance and used his spiritual power to inject it into Shang Qingluo's body:

"Since it belongs to the other party, then let's do as you say. Let's use this thing and the hibernation chamber to keep the little girl alive. That way we can wait... Your young master's name is Shang Chengfeng, right? It's also good to wait for his soul to recover in a few days so that he can meet his sister again."

"Thank you, sir." Zhang Bu thanked him.

"It's just something that happened by chance. If you want to thank someone, you should thank that expert. He is the one who deserves your gratitude. He not only cured your young master's head, but also gave him such a precious thing."

The short and fat old man shook his head and said:

"If he hadn't cured your young master's brain, even if I or even the War Alliance came to treat him, it would have been extremely difficult!"

He felt relieved in his heart. If it weren't for the mysterious master's treatment, he would have to watch Shang Chengfeng's talent continue to be delayed!

Because he was almost sure that he could cure it!

Zhang Bu nodded without saying anything.

They owe Lord Lin Yang so much in return!

Soon, with the help of the short and fat old man, Shang Qingluo’s hibernation capsule was transported back to the merchant house.

"Little guy, you don't mind if I stay at your house for a few days, right?" the short and fat old man said with a smile.

"This..." Zhang Bu looked at Ma Bo.

Now that Shang Qingluo is in hibernation, Ma Bo has to make decisions on family matters.

Although Ma Bo was extremely sad at this time, he was also trying to hold back his grief and said respectfully: "It is a great honor for my family that you have come. Zhang Bu, please arrange a quiet courtyard for you. I will go to Changshan."

"Okay, Uncle Ma." Zhang Bu nodded, and then according to Lin Yang's previous instructions, he arranged the short and fat old man to another villa near Lin Yang's villa.

"Chengfeng, go to Lord Lin Yang first. I still have some things to do."

After settling down, Zhang Bu asked Shang Chengfeng to go find Lin Yang on his own.

"Okay." Shang Chengfeng nodded and walked towards Lin Yang obediently.

"Huh? Little guy, do you have other guests at home?" the short and fat old man asked when he saw this.

"Yes, Mr. Lin Yang was rescued by my eldest daughter some time ago. He is recuperating in my house and gets along very well with Young Master Chengfeng." Zhang Bu said.

"Oh, then you don't mind if I go with your young master?" said the short and fat old man.

He followed Shangjia here just for Shang Chengfeng.

Now that he sees that there are outsiders who are getting along well with Shang Chengfeng, he is a little wary.

"Please do as you please, sir. Please allow me to go to the medical department and apply for a better hibernation chamber for my eldest daughter." Zhang Bu replied.

"Okay, you go first. As for the hibernation capsule, I do have some connections. I'll make arrangements later and ask them to send the best one over."

The short and fat old man said this and followed Shang Chengfeng towards Linyang Villa.

at the same time.

Tang family.

"Master Xu, it's bad, Tang Zongxian and Tang Ye are both dead!"

The subordinates reported the news in panic.

"Huh? Dead?"

Tang Xu's eyes turned cold:
"What about Shang Qingluo? What's Shang's situation now?"

When Shang Qingluo specifically asked Tang Zongxian and Tang Ye to go, they all knew that Shang Qingluo would fight to the death.

But just as Tang Ye said before, even though they knew it was a trap, the two of them had no choice but to go.

However, before leaving, Tang Xu also made arrangements to ensure that they were both safe.

But he still died...

"Master Xu, the situation of the merchant is not clear at the moment. Our people were blocked outside by some loyal servants of the merchant and were unable to enter the vicinity of the mine handover point."

The subordinate reported again:

"But I heard there seems to be a big commotion up there, so Shang Qingluo shouldn't be doing any better."

"Got it. Go to Shangjia's place and take a look at the situation. If Shang Qingluo is dead, or if he is not dead but seriously injured, then report back." Tang Xu ordered.

"Yes."

"Wait, and no matter whether the handover was successful before, we must seize the Lebo Mine. Even if Shang Qingluo doesn't die this time, he will no longer have the energy to fight. The teacher will arrive in a few days, and I must give this gift to the teacher!"

Tang Xu said again.

"Understood, Master Xu."

Tang Xu raised his hand again and said:
"Spread the news and say that Shang Jia killed Tang Zongxian and Tang Ye."

"This is a blatant violation of the imperial law. This time, I will make the merchant die in public!"

There was a coldness in his eyes.

They did not feel any grief over the deaths of Tang Zongxian and Tang Ye. Instead, they wanted to use this opportunity to completely prevent the merchants from having any chance of recovery.

A faint light flashed in Tang Xu's eyes:

"Report it to the Empire again and say that we want justice and ask the Empire to send someone to inspect the merchant."

"The teacher will be here soon. I think this task will be handed over directly to the teacher."

"When the time comes, under the guidance of the teacher, no merchant will be able to survive!"

"All sentenced to death!"

"Master Xu is wise!" his subordinates flattered.

Tang Xu waved his hand and asked his men to leave.

The reason why he did not choose to continue to attack the Shang family's house in private was that he had a plan when Shang Qingluo asked Tang Zongxian and Tang Ye to go together.

If Tang Ye and the other two really died in the Lebo mining area, then they could justifiably remove the business!
"Tang Zongxian, Tang Ye, for the sake of the family, your sacrifice is necessary!"

Tang Xu snorted.
