"Um?!"
You Fang, who had just finished the scroll, suddenly fixed his gaze, and then he saw that the "Bai Ze" on the scroll actually turned his head and looked at him? !
The next second, his pupils suddenly dilated, and he felt all kinds of information rushing into his eyes, ears, nose, mouth, body, and even his mind!
"This is?!"
In a flash, You Fang felt himself floating up, as if he had escaped from the shackles of this world and arrived outside of it...
Then, a pure white "Bai Ze" beast came on the clouds, picked him up gently, and took him on a trance.
"Is this what Gu Jiting said...'completely escape'?" Feeling the strange feeling at the moment, You Fang couldn't help but feel pleasantly surprised.
"I see. There is such a big difference between actively and consciously jumping away and unconsciously jumping away. This is the real 'observation technique'. I have just started!"
At this moment, You Fang's eyes suddenly moved, and he felt something in his heart. He looked down involuntarily, and then his eyes widened!
He discovered that in this world below, there were several spots of light that were attracting him. He could feel that they were all the "cause and effect" created by himself, and the "bond" between himself and this world!
"Could it be that……"
Following the feeling in his heart, Youfang moved his mind, and Bai Ze immediately raised his head, howled, and then headed towards where a bunch of light spots gathered.
In an instant, he felt that all of his six senses had entered an "immersion state". Although he could not move at all, they were magnified to the greatest extent...
All the senses!
……
……
at the same time.
In the company's senior management's meeting room.
The five directors, headed by Mr. Zhao, gathered at one end of the conference table with solemn expressions. Sitting opposite them was an old man, glaring at them covetously.
The old man had chin-length bangs covering half of his face on the left side, and there was a scar on his right eye that ran from top to bottom, passing through the center of his right eye. It looked extremely scary!
Lu Ci, one of the Ten Lords, is the current head and helmsman of the Lu Family. He is also Lu Huan’s great-grandfather, and his nickname in the underworld is “Mad Dog”.
Just as he said on the phone last night, since the company would not let her go, he would come to the company in person. Lu Huan was his great-granddaughter and the only genius in the entire Lu family who had awakened the "Double Hands". He would never let the company detain her so easily. This was related to the safety of the entire Lu family!
Of course, Lu Ci did not come alone. He was accompanied by his three children - Lu Zhong, Lu Xiao and Lu Ping. Together with him, they basically form the strongest fighting force of the Lu family.
The aura created by the four old men combined together made the five directors, who were used to many storms, feel nervous. This was the impact that the world's top group of extraordinary people could produce. Without taking any action, it was already a huge pressure!
"Directors, although people outside call me a 'mad dog', you also know that I will only go crazy when it is time to go crazy!" After a moment of confrontation, Lu Ci spoke in a deep voice.
"Perhaps the company is so powerful and powerful that my Lu family cannot contend with it, but there is one thing you should know: if I really go crazy, you will definitely not be able to escape from this distance!"
"Also, it's not just you, but also the entire company headquarters. With these weirdos you have trained and recruited, only the four of us are enough to slaughter everyone in the head office..."
"Of course, I also know that besides aliens, you also have other means of defense, but even so, I can guarantee that the best result you can achieve is to drag the entire head office down with us!"
At this moment……
"I know, Master Lu, please calm down. If there is anything... we can talk about it, right?" Without waiting for Lu Ci to continue threatening, Director Zhao spoke directly.
"Moreover, allowing you to come here safely already represents the company's greatest sincerity. You just said that you know the company has other means besides aliens, so please think about it, if we use these means in the process of your coming here, what do you think...what will be the result?"
"Are you threatening me?" Hearing this, Lu Ci narrowed his eyes, and the Qi of the Abyss of Sea suddenly burst out from his body and injected into the floor.
The next moment, the five directors, including Director Zhao, felt their hair stand on end at the same time, and then they realized that there was a powerful ball of energy right under their feet, locking them down!
"This 'mad dog'..."
Feeling the Qi under his feet, beads of sweat appeared on Director Zhao's forehead. He knew very well that with his level of "Splitting Air Palm", he would definitely be killed instantly.
However, although he felt a chill on his back, he remained calm on the surface. His eyes reflected the light above his head and he raised his head slightly.
"Master Lu, you can kill us right now, or you can choose to perish together with the head office. I have no doubt...you will do that."
"But before that, why don't you listen to the company's ideas, or... the ideas of the higher-ups? It won't be too late to make a decision after listening to them. What do you think?"
"..."
Seeing Mr. Zhao's reaction, Lu Ci couldn't help but narrow his eyes. He always thought that this guy was a softie, but unexpectedly, he was quite tough at the critical moment.
This is no wonder. After all, these guys have such a huge monster above their heads that the entire Lu family cannot afford to offend them. This should be... their confidence!
"Hmph, if you have to fart, do it now!"
So he snorted and nodded.
"Ha ha……"
Although the Qi energy under his feet did not dissipate, Director Zhao knew that there must be room for maneuver. He knew Lu Ci, and this guy was not crazy.
Of course, the so-called "not crazy" here does not mean that this guy can't do such a thing, but that before he really does such a thing, he must have something to ask for!
"Well, then let me tell you what the company and the higher-ups think. First of all, I can guarantee that we will not do anything bad to Lu Huan. You can rest assured about this..."
"Secondly, I believe that when you came here, you have already read the information I sent you in full. It contains the entire process of this incident. You should also be able to see the seriousness of the problem!"
"Um……"
Speaking of this, the four elders of the Lu family, including Lu Ci, couldn't help but move their eyelids. They really didn't expect that this whole matter would involve such a big matter!
Although they all received the news that the entire country's Internet was down that night and all networked electronic devices malfunctioned, they did not know that the "Shuangquan Hands" incident was also involved!
"Don't worry, the company has not disclosed to the outside world the fact that Lv Huan possesses the 'Shuangquan Hands'. The three major sects that went to help, including the head of the Lu family and the old Taoist priest, have also promised to keep their mouths shut."
"From the company's perspective, we naturally don't want this kind of news to leak out and cause chaos, so you can rest assured in this regard as well."
At this point, Mr. Zhao paused, raised his hand to push up his glasses, and then continued:
"In addition to these two points, what I am going to talk about next is the real key point. You should have seen the magic weapon mentioned in the information, that is...'Self-cultivation Furnace'!"
"The existence of this thing is beyond the imagination of the company and the higher-ups. No one in the entire alien world would have thought that someone could actually create something like this."
"As for how the higher-ups will view this, I don't need to tell you. I'm sure you can all figure it out. This is not something we can control at all. We are just the 'mouthpiece' of the higher-ups."
"But we also know that it is inappropriate for the company to detain people and restrict their personal freedom. Therefore, we have come up with a solution within our capabilities, which is to get them to cooperate with the company!"
"cooperate?"
Hearing this, the four elders of the Lu family were all moved at the same time. This point was not mentioned in the information, and they had never expected that the company would come up with such a plan.
"Then how do you want to cooperate? Let Huan'er and Ma Xianhong work together to manufacture self-cultivation furnaces for the company?" Lu Ci's mind worked quickly and he thought of the key right away!
"That's right!"
Director Zhao nodded and immediately asked a question: "Have you four heard of Behemoth?"
"Behemoth?" The four elders of the Lu family frowned. It sounded like a foreign name, so they naturally didn't pay attention to it.
"This is an American biological company. Its existence is similar to that of Naduotong, but you should also know the situation over there. They serve the financial backers behind the scenes." Director Zhao explained immediately.
"According to reliable information, Behemoth has already started developing a gene drug called the 'SP series'. It has made some progress and has produced a lot of... 'artificial mutants'!"
"Artificial Inhuman?!"
Upon hearing this, the four elders of the Lu family couldn't help but be a little surprised. Isn't this thing the same as the "Self-cultivation Furnace"?
Then, Director Zhao answered their doubts: "However, unlike the Cultivation Furnace, this genetic medicine has a very low success rate and a very high mortality rate. So far, it has not been able to produce many mutants. As far as I know, as long as it is operated properly, the success rate of the Cultivation Furnace... is basically 100%!"
"Um……"
After hearing this, the four elders of the Lu family basically understood what Director Zhao meant. As competitors, since they have taken action, China naturally cannot fall behind.
Something like the "population red line" will only be useful if everyone abides by it. Once someone breaks the rules, a new "war" will quietly begin!
"So, the company needs to use the power of 'Shen Ji Bai Lian' and 'Shuang Quan Shou' to secretly accumulate the power of extraordinary people, so as to avoid being tricked by those white-skinned ghosts...right?" Lu Ci understood and spoke artistically.
"That's right. Judging from the current situation, this may be the trend in the future. The existence of extraordinary people cannot be kept secret forever. The sooner we prepare, the better." Director Zhao nodded.
Next, he began to explain the cooperation model that the company had set with the two of them, which was basically "half surveillance and half freedom". They could go out and meet people, but they had to agree on a time to come back and could not delay the research progress.
As for the cooperation benefits, they will naturally receive full support from the entire company and even the superiors. Whenever there is a phased result, you can make any request to the company, and as long as it is not excessive, it will be met.
In addition, the Lu family, as the family behind it, can also benefit, not only in terms of resources, but also in the future when the self-cultivation furnace is completed, the Lu family members will be able to become the first batch of entrants.
Of course, there are many other details, which President Zhao also explained one by one. Basically, they are not excessive, and many of them are even for the benefit of the partners.
In the end, in order to prove the company's sincerity and to prove that he was not lying, Director Zhao made a phone call, and several company employees brought Lu Huan to the conference room...
The moment he saw the four elders of the Lu family, Lu Huan immediately rushed over and shouted excitedly: "Grandpa! Grandpa! Uncle! Third Aunt! I miss you so much!!!"
"Huan, Huan'er..."
Looking at the girl who threw herself into his arms, Lu Ci could confirm that this was indeed Lu Huan. Although her figure and appearance had grown bigger, the Qi in her body would never lie.
All of a sudden, the four elders of the Lu family gathered around her and began to check on her body, their eyes full of concern and love, and even a feeling of "recovering what was lost".
After a while of asking about each other's well-being, Lu Ci's expression immediately became serious. He then grabbed Lu Huan's hands and asked seriously, "Huan'er, tell me the truth, do you want to cooperate with them?"
"Master..."
"If you don't want to, your great grandfather, your grandfather, your uncle, and your third aunt will take you back even if it costs us our lives. Although our Lu family cannot defeat the company, we are not afraid of death!"
"..."
Hearing Lu Ci's words, Lu Huan lowered his head and tears welled up in his eyes.
This was the great-grandfather she knew, the one who loved her the most since she was a child, as well as her grandfather, uncle and third aunt. She hadn't experienced this feeling for a long time!
only……
"Grandpa, don't worry, the company did not coerce me. I am sincerely willing to cooperate with the company. If you don't believe me, just ask Grandpa or Third Aunt to check my memory." She wiped her red eyes and then smiled.
She knew in her heart that her grandfather and his family had already shouldered too much for the entire Lu family and for their descendants...
Now that she has grown up and is a member of the Lu family, it is time for her to take on the responsibility of the family!
"Is it……"
"That's good."
Looking at Lu Huan's determined eyes, Lu Ci was stunned at first, then nodded and showed a kind smile.
He did not let Lu Zhong and Lu Ping use the "Soul-Clearing Technique" because there was no need. He naturally knew his own great-granddaughter, and this girl... was not lying.
but……
"Okay, Mr. Zhao, I have no objection to the cooperation you mentioned. It is related to the national cause, and my Lu family is willing to cooperate..." Lu Ci touched Lu Huan's head and then turned his head away.
"However, I have a condition. Huan'er has been away from home for too long, so I must take her back to the Lu family to reunite for a while. Is this condition not too much for the company?"
"This……"
Director Zhao thought about it, then looked at the other directors, and the others all lowered their heads and avoided his gaze. The meaning was obvious.
"..."
"Okay, then you can take her back for just one month. How about that? This should be enough time, right?" Director Zhao replied immediately.
"?!"
Hearing his words, the other four people stared in disbelief that he would agree.
But Mr. Zhao didn't say much. If he had anything to say, he would say it downstairs. He just looked at Lu Ci opposite him quietly, waiting for his reply.
"Ah……"
"Okay, one month is just one month. Since the company has given me face, I, Lu Ci, can't refuse it, right?" Upon hearing this, Lu Ci immediately grinned and nodded in agreement.
It was obvious that he was very satisfied with this month, so he stopped pestering and left with his three children and Lu Huan.
Bang!
When the door of the conference room was closed, the other four directors finally became angry and stared at Director Zhao as if they wanted to eat him.
Seeing this, Mr. Zhao didn't say much, but took out his mobile phone and played a recording:
"Mr. Zhao, the restrictions I placed on Lu Huan's soul also include all the information related to the 'Shuangquan Hands'. She can't reveal a single thing, and the Lu family's 'Soul Enlightenment Technique' won't work either. Don't worry."
"This is what the old Taoist priest and I confirmed before the meeting. You all know his strength. It concerns the whole world. He has no reason to lie to us." Director Zhao said as he looked at the four people who were looking at each other in bewilderment.
"Since the balance has been broken, we should take some risks for the sake of smooth cooperation. Don't worry, I can take responsibility for this..."
"Moreover, the Lu family knew that this was the general trend and that the higher-ups were determined to push this matter forward no matter what, so they didn't dare not send the person back after a month."
"Hmph! What if the Lu family really didn't send the person back?" The four of them couldn't help but speak up and started to pick on them.
"Then the higher-ups will take action!"
A cold light flashed in Director Zhao's eyes.
