Awakening the Phoenix Flow System after the breakup, I'm so happy!

Suburbs of Jiangcheng.

Inside an underground air-raid shelter in an abandoned steel plant,

A man dressed in an elegant black suit sat calmly on a leather sofa, toying with two translucent jade walnuts in his hands.

His men in black stood respectfully before him, heads bowed.

The subordinate just reported two pieces of bad news; now, the BOSS might get so angry that he'd feed himself to those bio-monsters.

"You mean, the key point of the formation over at Pearl Lake has been completely destroyed?"

The owl's voice was soft, yet it carried a chilling aura that sent shivers down one's spine.

The black-clad henchman's palms were covered in cold sweat, and he could only bite the bullet and answer.

"Yes, boss, we couldn't save that third experimental subject, the mutated octopus, either."

"Even the self-destruct mechanism of the underwater laboratory was broken by the Special Investigations Bureau."

A crisp snapping sound.

The two priceless jade walnuts in the owl's hand were crushed into powder.

The powder trickled down between his fingers, leaving a small puddle on the expensive carpet.

"When did the Special Investigation Bureau produce such a powerful figure who could mess up both of our bureaus?"

The owl picked up a white handkerchief from the low table next to him and slowly wiped his hands.

His subordinate quickly handed him a paper file that was only a few pages long.

"We've checked, it was that kid named Chen Yang who did it."

"It's said that Xingyi School is backing him up this time."

Upon hearing these words, Night Owl threw the handkerchief into the nearby trash can.

"What kind of thing is Xingyi Sect? How dare they interfere with our Black Feather's plans?"

He stood up and walked to the huge map of Jiangcheng hanging on the wall of the air-raid shelter.

The map has seven dots circled in red.

The spot at Mingzhu Lake has been marked with a black cross.

"The Seven Star Locking Meridian Diagram is something we've painstakingly created over many years; we absolutely cannot let it be ruined by a mere brat."

The owl's gaze followed a winding line down the map, finally stopping at a place called Antique Street.

This is a famous old street in Jiangcheng, and the earth veins buried beneath it are the earth veins in the Seven Star Formation.

He turned his head and gave orders to his subordinate.

"Since the water vein is cut off, let's open the second array eye in advance. We absolutely cannot let the earth energy connection be severed."

His subordinate answered hesitantly.

"Boss, there are too many people and too many eyes on the antique street. The key to the formation is buried in the deepest Ming Dynasty tomb."

"If we make too much noise, the Special Investigations Bureau will definitely come looking for us."

Night Owl gave a cold laugh.

"Do we really need our people to do this dirty and tiring work ourselves?"

"Go and fetch that mongrel dog called Ghost Hand Six."

His subordinates nodded in agreement.

"Old Liu has been active in the southern part of the city lately, and he's so desperate for money that he's practically green with envy."

"As long as the money is right, this old bastard will do anything immoral."

Night Owl reached out and tapped a few times on the map.

"Relying on him alone as a tomb raider isn't enough to ensure safety. Go and bring out those two second-generation experimental subjects from the biohazard zone who have just completed genetic enhancement."

"Let those two big guys go with Lao Liu. Once they've dug through that ancient tomb, dump the pollutant directly into the earth's vein."

After arranging these matters, Night Owl sat back down on the sofa, his tone becoming nonchalant.

"As for that kid named Chen Yang, he's a menace if we keep him around; we have to get rid of him as soon as possible."

"Take my note and post a bounty on the black market."

"I'll spend fifty million to take this kid's head, life or death is irrelevant."

When his subordinates heard the number, they gasped in shock.

"Boss, isn't fifty million a bit too much? That price is enough to attract all those mad dog-like international assassins."

Night Owl picked up the cold coffee on the table and took a sip.

"The point is to let those desperados bother him to death."

"As long as we can slow him down and the soil pollution in the antique street area is successful, the feng shui of the entire Jiangcheng will be completely reversed."

"At that time, even if a god descended to earth, he wouldn't be able to save these millions of people."

The underground air-raid shelter quickly returned to a deathly silence, with only the hum of the instruments turning.

On the other side, in the bustling downtown area.

After leaving Liu Yifei's upscale apartment, Chen Yang hailed a ride-hailing car.

The morning sun was shining brightly, its warmth wafting through the car window onto my skin.

He leaned back in the seat, his mind replaying the contents of the "Seven Stars Locking Pulse Diagram" analysis scroll from last night.

This ancient formation is indeed very mysterious.

The five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth in the universe, along with the two poles of yin and yang, perfectly make up the number seven.

The water vein array at Mingzhu Lake was just the trigger.

If the Black Feather Organization wanted to drain the earth's energy from the entire Jiangcheng, they would have to destroy each element one by one according to the order of the five elements' mutual generation.

Water nourishes wood, wood nourishes fire, and fire nourishes earth.

Now that they've destroyed the water vein, these people will definitely shift their focus to maintaining the formation's operation.

With his eyes closed, Chen Yang mentally compared the topographical map of Jiangcheng with the analysis sheet.

The place most likely to be tampered with, and also the closest to the direction of the Pearl Lake's geomantic vein, is the old antique street on the south side of Jiangcheng.

That place is a well-known treasure trove in Jiangcheng, with countless antique dealers and people dealing in old objects coming and going.

Most importantly, beneath that street lies the most robust vein of earth in the entire Jiangcheng.

"Master, please change your route and go to the antique street in the south of the city."

Chen Yang opened his eyes and shouted at the driver in front.

The driver glanced at him in the rearview mirror and turned the steering wheel.

"Young man, it's the busiest time to visit the antique street right now."

"It's the weekend today, and there's a morning market over there. There are stalls everywhere."

"Are you looking for some treasure, or just going to join the fun?"

The driver was a very outgoing person, chatting casually while driving.

Chen Yang smiled and didn't hide it.

"Let's go see what it's like, and find some unseen filth while we're at it."

The driver didn't understand what he meant and assumed that Chen Yang was an apprentice of some feng shui master, so he didn't ask any further questions.

More than half an hour later, the ride-hailing car stopped outside the tall blue stone archway on the antique street.

The place was packed with people, and the sounds of vendors hawking their wares and haggling filled the air.

Chen Yang pushed open the car door and got out, his feet just stepping onto the bluestone-paved street.

A faint, ethereal aura crept up from the ground.

Ordinary people wouldn't notice this kind of aura at all; they would only feel that the breeze through the street was a bit chilly.

Having just mastered those top-tier martial arts techniques, Chen Yang's five senses were already far beyond those of ordinary people.

Moreover, he now has the Eye of Insight, a reward from the system.

He stood under the archway, his eyes slightly closed and then opened again, directly activating his Eye of Insight.
