"It depends on what you want."

Luo Wei looked at Lai Tu, his deep eyes like the starry sea, containing everything, as if he could see through the other's thoughts.

Drizzle

Lex across from him didn't answer directly. He tapped the table with his right hand, poured two glasses of champagne with his left, and looked hesitant, as if he was weighing something.

"drink wine?"

He handed him a glass of wine.

"Thank you."

Rowe didn't urge him; he knew that Lai Tu was weighing the terms of the deal.

This is not easy.

“Superman, look at the stars in the sky. It takes many years for their light to reach Earth. By the time the light reaches us, they may have already died, but they will still shine into our lives, just like history. Tragedy always repeats itself on this planet.”

Lex Luthor took a sip of his drink, cleared his throat, and continued, "And we will all become history sooner or later, merging into the dust. Everything goes back and forth, but I am not resigned to it. The world can be changed; it's just that no one has yet found a way to control it."

With that, he turned his gaze from the deep space to Lowe and said, "I need your help, your DNA."

After listening for a long time, Lowe finally saw Levi reveal his true colors. Levi's initial goal was to obtain Superman's DNA. As the smartest person in the world, Levi also had profound knowledge in biology. You should know that the death of Superman in the movie was a tragedy caused by Levi creating Doomsday.

"I'm sorry, my conditions are too rude."

Seeing that the person opposite him didn't speak, Lex quickly stood up and apologized.

"No problem, I agree to your terms."

Lowe nodded. He wouldn't have done that a few years ago, but things are different now. At this stage, no one can decipher his DNA. Giving a copy to Lex is the same as having it tested by Hua Xin at the police station back then. It poses no threat to him.

"So, it's a pleasure working with you?"

Lex Luthor hadn't expected things to go so smoothly. He had been pondering how to obtain Superman's DNA, but now he had acquired it with ease.

This was undoubtedly good news for him. He immediately woke Eve and began searching for the whereabouts of the Antique Door. At the same time, he also developed a strong interest in the Antique Door. Could an Antique Door that Superman would take notice of really be simple?

However, a few days later.

Lex used his connections to find the antique door and placed it in the laboratory. He studied it all night but couldn't find anything special about it. It was just an ordinary antique door with nothing special about it.

So, Lai Tu felt relieved and disassembled the antique door, packed it into a container, and took it to the dock to exchange blood samples with Luo Wei.

Originally, the old fox Lai Tu wanted to help transport the goods to their destination, but unfortunately, Luo Wei failed to do as he wished. If he knew that he was going to the Arctic, with Lai Tu's intelligence, he would definitely immediately think of the UFO incident that occurred in the Arctic some time ago. Never underestimate Lai Tu; he always manages to survive in desperate situations. Others would have died several times over.

"Xiaolong, did you not detect the locator?"

High in the air on the way to the Arctic, Luo Wei used his super vision to confirm that the container had not been tampered with, and then questioned the artificial intelligence Xiaolong.

Faced with the cunning and treacherous Lex, one must be cautious.

"No, there are only antique doors in the container."

Xiaolong's image appeared on the bracelet.

"Ah."

Rowe didn't believe that Lex's current technology could escape the detection of Krypton's artificial intelligence, so he didn't waste any more time and flew towards the horizon at super speed.

Meanwhile, after completing his deal with Lowe, Lex boarded a plane and returned to the United States. Now he longed to have super-flight so he could fly back to the lab to analyze Superman's blood sample. Especially when he saw the crystal-clear blood in the storage box, he felt as if he were looking at a fine red wine, and his eyes were filled with undisguised fervor.

"Luthor, why didn't you install a locator on the container? Knowing Superman's identity would have been more helpful to you."

Eve looked at her boss, who was lying in a chair, glancing at the blood sample from time to time.

“Dear Eve, this is not a good question. If I rashly install a locator in the container and Superman finds out, it will only make things worse. I don’t want to fall out with Superman. Only by being sincere can I gain his trust.”

Lex frowned slightly as he spoke.

"I was foolish."

Eve also realized that this was a silly question.

"I'm going to take a nap. Wake me up when we get there."

Lex glanced at the blood sample, his furrowed brows relaxed a little, and he lay down on the chair and drifted off to sleep.

Boom!

In the lobby of the Arctic Black Gold Spaceship, an antique door in the ancient Chinese style stands in the center of the hall, surrounded by two lamps.

The light shines on the gate.

"You've found it."

Joel admired the ancient patterns carved on the door frame.

"Yes, I plan to try it now."

Rowe didn't distrust Lex; on the contrary, he now believed that Lex wouldn't deceive him with counterfeit goods. Judging from the previous incident with the locator, Lex still wanted to be honest and coexist peacefully, and had not shown any hostility.

However, Lex being completely honest with Superman inevitably feels somewhat incongruous.

Buzz

"There's nothing wrong with the door."

As Luo Wei installed the door knocker, a golden light rippled outwards, spreading outwards in concentric circles.

"Good luck on your journey to the underworld."

Joel took a few steps back symbolically as he spoke.

"Although this sounds strange in Chinese culture, I'll open the door because of your kind words."

Luo Wei gripped the door knocker on the door and pulled it outward with force. The seemingly fragile door was incredibly heavy. With veins bulging on his arms, he pulled hard, and with a "crack," the heavy door finally moved a little, making a scraping sound as it was dragged outward.

boom!

The next second, the door suddenly swung open completely, a dazzling white light blinded everyone, and a vortex-shaped energy body instantly appeared behind the door.

Luo Wei reached out and touched it, finding that his hand passed to another space, which was cool and refreshing. He knew that the gate to the underworld had been successfully opened, so without any hesitation, he strode in.

Whoosh——

A white light flashed before Luo Wei's eyes, and what came into view again was a dark and gloomy world. The sky was black, the ground beneath his feet was scorched, and there was no sign of life around him. It was a completely barren land.

Suddenly, a gust of cold wind hit my face, and a chilling sensation shot from my feet to the top of my head. Unlike the raging winds of the Arctic, this chilling feeling came from a cold wind mixed with yin energy. As my body felt cold, my heart tightened involuntarily.

Whoops! ! !

Suddenly, a large cleaver came slashing down from the side. The blade was covered in blood, and the blood had even made the blade rust, yet it gave people an extremely hard feeling.

Bang!

Luo Wei raised his left hand and slammed the broadsword down on his arm. With a "crack," the steel blade shattered and shattered instantly, scattering across the ground.

"You are quite hospitable."

He turned his head and saw a ghostly soldier with a ferocious face, blue tusks in his mouth, and a pig-like appearance. He was wearing Chinese armor and was raising his other fist to strike.

"Wait a minute, I meant no harm."

Luo Wei once again clenched the incoming fist with one hand, but the other party seemed not to hear it. His eyes were bloodshot, and he threw away the broken machete with his other hand, trying to take down the intruder in front of him with both hands.

Left with no other choice, Luo Wei had to push hard, sending the ghostly soldier flying and crashing into a hard rock before it came to a stop.

"There is an intruder!"

"There is an intruder!"

"There is an intruder!"

But when he knocked that ghostly soldier away, hundreds and thousands of ghostly soldiers suddenly appeared on the previously desolate land. They all emerged from the ground with a wisp of green smoke, each wearing armor, wielding a large cleaver, with ferocious faces and fangs in their mouths.

They sprinted as fast as cheetahs, and almost instantly, like a pack of wolves, they pounced on Luo Wei, who was standing in the middle.

"Everyone, get back!"

Upon seeing this, Luo Wei took to the air and

As it soared into the sky, its eyes instantly glowed red, followed by a surge of scorching heat that swept across the dense swarm of Yin soldiers below, resembling an ant colony.

The ghost soldiers were almost instantly melted by the heat vision, with no chance to resist. In just a few seconds, only a few extremely deep trenches and the corpses of the ghost soldiers torn apart by five horses remained on the scorched earth below. However, the corpses of the ghost soldiers soon turned into green smoke and dissipated.

"Who dares to run wild in the underworld?!"

With a loud thud, a massive figure gradually emerged from the dark ground ahead, wielding a long halberd. Its enormous feet slammed into the ground, creating a deafening echo.

When he stepped out of the shadows, he finally saw his face clearly. It was none other than Ox-Head, one of the guardians of the underworld, Ox-Head and Horse-Face.

"I meant no harm, it's just that your soldiers are too impulsive and won't listen to my explanation."

Luo Wei said slowly.

"No one, regardless of who they are, has the right to enter the underworld without permission. A thousand years ago, when your emperor took the door knocker, he promised that he would never set foot in the underworld again. Now you have broken your promise!"

As Niu Tou spoke, he slammed his halberd into the ground, causing the scorched earth to crack open with countless clearly visible fissures, emitting waves of eerie black energy.

"Actually, my purpose in coming here is to return the door knocker."

Luo Wei was prepared. He knew that the people of the underworld were very resistant to outsiders, since the underworld was a private territory.

As he spoke, he pointed to the portal behind him and said, "The emperor you speak of has long since passed away, and countless dynasties have changed in the outside world. The door knocker has now fallen into the mortal realm, causing quite a bit of chaos. It would be better to return this thing to its rightful owner."

"I see. I misunderstood you."

The bull-headed man's eyes lit up slightly as he looked through the portal and saw the door knocker there. He suddenly realized what was happening, and an apologetic expression immediately appeared on his ugly face. "I'm so sorry, those ghost soldiers don't understand human language. They are just evil spirits of sinful people after they died. After experiencing various punishments, they have long lost their human thoughts and souls."

"So that's how it is. No wonder I didn't sense their thoughts."

Luo Wei thought to himself, "So it turns out that evil people really do get special treatment when they go to the underworld. Those ghost soldiers just now could only shout that outsiders were invading, but their hearts were like empty shells, like puppets being pulled by strings."

"Ok?"

Just as Niu Tou was about to say something, he heard someone call his name from behind. His massive body froze for a moment, then he looked at Luo Wei and said, "I'm really sorry about earlier. You came to return the door knocker, so you're my benefactor. If you don't mind, please come with me to the main hall."

"Row."

Luo Wei also vaguely heard a third person speaking, seemingly giving instructions, but unfortunately it was some kind of telepathic communication, which he could sense but could not hear.

However, since he was already there, he decided to go inside and take a look, hoping to find something unexpected.

Before long, Minotaur brought Luo Wei to the main hall. In fact, the main hall was very close to the teleportation portal, but the light in this world was dim, as if a layer of black mist shrouded the surroundings. It was not an ordinary black mist, because Luo Wei's super vision could not penetrate it. Perhaps it was some kind of magic or spell, not a physical object.

Upon reaching the main hall, the magnificent structure stood atop a very high place, accessible via a stone staircase. The hall's entrance was even more imposing, towering ten meters high, large enough for a bull's head to pass through. Thick pillars flanked the entrance, each entwined with a different mythical beast statue. There were no ghostly soldiers at the entrance; it seemed the statues on the pillars alone were enough to frighten away any enemies, for the eyes of the mythical beast statues gleamed faintly when one approached the pillars.
