I'll keep this grudge in mind.

……

"Mebius, what do you think of the professorship at Atlantis University? Are you interested in taking it? My research institute is in need of a permanent biology consultant with an annual salary of one million and access to 200 million Mu Yuan in research funding. I also have several talented students of my friends who are bold but careful."

During the video call, Einstein said with a smile, as if Mobius had made a big profit.

Mobius: "There's an old saying in China: 'If someone shows kindness without any reason, he's either a traitor or a thief.'"

Einstein: "It's nothing, actually. You have so many physics geniuses in your institute, and they can't help you much if you use them yourself. But if you give them to me, maybe they can change the future direction of human physics development. I don't want much, just give me one summer. As for Mei, Cang Xuan Dan Zhu, and Klein, I'll leave them to you for your retirement."

Mebius: "Impossible."

Einstein: "I'll give you one of my friend's students in exchange, five professors for one."

Five professors in exchange for a high school student who isn't even a PhD, that's ridiculous.

Mebius shook his head calmly, "It's impossible to change it."

Einstein: "Six, plus 1 billion Mu Yuan in research funds, and 100 death row prisoners. I'll give you the highest price first. I know the criminal experiment you applied for this month wasn't approved, but I have a good relationship with the higher-ups on Mu Continent, and I can deliver the death row prisoners to your account within a day."

Mobius lowered his head in shame. Einstein thought Mobius was about to agree, so he stepped up his game. "Actually, Dr. Mobius, no, Professor Mobius, I've always admired you. Although your research hasn't made much progress in recent years, your card drawing skills are truly beyond my reach. The biology card pool is full of eccentrics, and I never thought you could draw cards from my physics community."

Einstein: "Hua is an absolute genius in biology. If I train him well, he might be able to take over your job. I only need one summer. I like his book A Brief History of Time. There's a lot of material in it that I can delve deeper into."

Mebius lowered her head even more, her face flushed. She was not feeling guilty about selling out Xia, but she felt guilty that she had been persuaded by Einstein's conditions for a moment.

"I won't change."

Mebius said softly.

Einstein: "What?"

Mebius raised his head, his eyes full of determination. "I said, I won't change. Whether it's ten biology professors or a hundred biology professors, Xia, I won't change anything. He is perfect."

Einstein was shocked. "No, he's just a high school student. You have a flower. Is it too much to give it to me for a whole summer?"

Mebius: "He's a human being, upright, a person with personality and dignity, not an item to be traded. Professor Einstein, you have no respect for life! You have no respect for humanity! How could you even talk about exchanging and giving it to you? I'm ashamed to be associated with you!"

Mebius hung up the video call directly, breathing heavily. She hung up the video call just because she didn't want to listen to Einstein continue to talk about the conditions, because if he added any more, Mebius really couldn't bear it anymore. Out of sight, out of mind.

Einstein: “…”

Einstein turned around, his face full of confusion, and asked Nobiu beside him: "Did I hear something wrong?"

Nobiu: "Hmm?"

Nobiu took off her headphones. She didn't like eavesdropping on other people's video chats. She felt that was disrespectful.

Einstein pointed at the computer. "Just now, Mobius of the Fire Moth said I have no respect for life, no respect for humanity, and that she's ashamed of being around me."

Nobiu: "Huh? What did you do?"

Einstein: "She conducts human experiments every month. Her hands are stained with more human blood than any of the murderers I've ever seen. Forget human rights. There's not even animal rights in her research institute. I don't know how many guinea pigs she kills every year. Do I have no respect for life?"

Einstein almost broke down. Sister, this is a bit too much. After draining all the guaranteed cards from my card pool, you still stand on the moral high ground and point fingers at me.

You drew my card pool, sister. How many people in your institute are doing serious biological research? Except Hua, none of them has anything to do with my physics? Even Mei studied electromagnetic physics and quantum physics from the beginning. I didn't say anything even though you fooled Mei away.

……

"When I help you kill Mebius and take the position of director of the First Research Institute, I believe you will look back on the conditions I offer you and be grateful to me."

Sisley sat on the bench with his legs crossed, smoking a cigar and talking with a crooked mouth, as if he had already gained Xia's loyalty.

But he didn't notice the impatience on Xia's face.

After talking so much nonsense, in the end he said that Lamebius should step down and support me to take the position?

This is the fifth time. Don’t those high-ranking officials of the Fire Moth understand what rejection means?

Xia has already refused five times, and he still has to repeat it. What's the point of adding a little bit more benefits each time? Don't they know what a firm refusal means?

Wasn't my performance enough of a rejection? Xia Du began to doubt whether his attitude towards them was too nice.

Sisley: "Money, power, beauty, us"

Xia interrupted Sisley, his expression suddenly turned cold. The temperature around him dropped suddenly, and Sisley inexplicably felt a little cold on his neck.

"We? Who told you we are?"

Sisley: "Don't you want money? Power? Women? Anything? I have everything, Fire Moth, as long as you give up a little bit of betrayal."

Sisley spread his hands. "It's nothing. Everyone has their first time. Isn't it something to be thankful for that your first betrayal was worth such a high price? At least it allows you to become 'us'."

What Xia hated most was betrayal. When he was hunted by the righteous for the first time in the Demonic Realm, it was because of the betrayal of a poorly talented errand disciple that he lost contact with his uncles and uncles' branches.

Whether it is the Fire Moth or something else, no one is a good person, but even if they are bad people, they should have a bottom line.

Xia's eyes were cold. He only glanced at Sisley lightly, but Sisley felt as if he was walking on the edge of hell.

Xia: "The Fire Moth is a huge dye vat, and the whole world is a huge dye vat too. All sorts of dyes dye the white cloth of a newcomer into society into all sorts of colors. Everything seems to be convertible into value, but I still believe that there are people who remain loyal and humble."

Xia stared at Sisley and said softly in a soft and indifferent voice, "Times have changed, and you've forgotten the original intention of founding the Fire Moth together, but Mobius hasn't forgotten."

Sisley's expression changed, he frowned and became furious, his momentum suddenly rose, but he didn't say anything for a long time.

Sisley: "Times have changed. Möbius is no longer in touch with us. To surpass him by half a step is a genius, to surpass him by one step is a madman. The present era belongs to us, and to you, and will eventually belong to you, but it does not belong to madmen. Immortality is nothing but a ridiculous lie."

Sisley is gone.

Xia: "...Sand Dollar."

The worldly affairs refine the mind. The worldly affairs refine the mind. Take a deep breath. Exhale.

Don't be angry, don't be angry. It's just a greasy middle-aged man with different ideas from yours who wants to recruit you with the idea that as long as he has money, power and women, he can have everything.

Anyway, we have already used our ghosts to suck some of his yang energy, shortening his life by a few years. As the eldest brother said, "He's already like this, why can't you just obey him?"

It’s decided like this. From now on, if anyone makes me unhappy, I will absorb their yang energy for a few years and shorten their lifespan by a few years. I will make the absorbed yang energy into small blue pills and sell them to make money. It’s a win-win situation, I win twice.

If you meet someone who doesn't understand what you say and keeps coming back even after you reject him, just smoke for a few more years.

Let their bodies deteriorate and die naturally, and Xia will never be held responsible. After they die, he will use the Soul-Breaking Physical Training Technique to turn their souls into supplies to strengthen himself, leaving them no chance of survival or even the slightest chance of reincarnation.

127

Chapter 127 Dr. Mobius, don’t be like this, it’s not that serious.

Carrying a small pet of the feline dragon family, Mebius calmly drove away another one that was biting her sleeve during the video conference. "I think this creature will have a significant impact on the fusion warriors I'm researching, but unfortunately, Ms. Hua isn't interested in that at the moment."

Other Fire Moth executives in the video conference: "..."

Sisley coughed violently a few times and looked a little weak sitting on the hospital bed. He was very angry after being squeezed after meeting Xia, so he went ice swimming as usual, but this time the ice swimming was completely different from his previous experience. He actually caught a cold and had a high fever, which made him directly hospitalized.

Sisley couldn't understand how he could be hospitalized with a severe cold just by taking a shower, given his physical condition. However, the doctor said that after all, he was old, so it would be better for him not to do sports like ice swimming.

At this moment, Sisley suddenly felt that he had aged a lot.

Sisley: "Which institute does she want to go to?"

Mebius: "The Fire Moth Elite Squad, Squad Five, Ms. Himeko's squad."

Sisley's expression froze for a moment. Himeko's team had been sent to the Far East by Himeko before, and was now still clearing out the Honkai beasts and death warriors in the Far East.

Even with this, he could still find a Hua? It seems I'm still a little too kind. Or maybe there are too many people in the Far East. Once the matters in Changkong City and Canghai City are settled, I'll transfer Himeko's Fifth Team to Australia and let Himeko play with those kangaroos, koalas, and big spiders. I want to see if her Fifth Team can find more talents.

After a meeting, Mebius hung up the phone with a cold face, and walked slowly towards Xia, who had just returned and was watching anime with Cang Xuan Dan Zhu in the research institute.

"Sisley just mentioned your name at the meeting. He said you're too young to be entrusted with such an important task. Did you offend him?"

Mebius always speaks his mind. Although he is not straightforward, he can be said to be honest and trustworthy.

Xia: "He wanted me to be the director of the First Research Institute, but I refused."

Xia ate snacks while watching the scene in the anime where the male protagonist was killing the boss, wondering if he could also perform such cool moves.

Mebius was stunned for a moment and tilted his head, "But I am the director of the First Research Institute."

Xia chewed some potato chips and nodded, "That's why I refused."

Mebius: "...I'm sorry."

"Nothing to be sorry about. Want some chips?"

Xia handed over the bag of potato chips. Mebius thought about it, took the chips and sat next to Xia.

Cang Xuan Dan Zhu immediately found an excuse to get busy.

They were originally slacking off during working hours, and not only were they caught by their leader, but the leader also sat down and accompanied them in slacking off. Cang Xuan Dan Zhu broke out in a cold sweat. If they couldn't see the situation clearly, they would not be able to do this.

Mebius: "Because of me, you were targeted by them, and I couldn't do anything about it."

Mebius said sincerely.

"That means my lesson to him was a little insufficient. Oh, is he in the hospital?"

"How did you know he was in the hospital? He caught a cold and had a fever while ice swimming this afternoon. It was quite severe, so he was rushed to the hospital. He was still lying in bed during the meeting."

After saying this, Mebius pointed at Xia as if he suddenly realized something, "You did it."

Xia: "I taught him a little lesson, but it seems it wasn't enough. Mobius, do you want to go see him?"

Mebius pondered for a moment and shook his head, "I don't know."

Xia casually took out a bead made of a small array disk and said, "If you go to see him, give this to him as a gift."

Mebius: "What is this?"

Xia: "A bigger lesson."

Shortening his life by a few years was just a small lesson. I didn't expect that he could still cause trouble. Xia thought that his illness would at least keep him quiet for a while, but trouble came again before he even got out of bed.

Mebius: "...will he die?"

"I don't know, it shouldn't be the case. He won't die on the spot anyway."

Mebius swallowed hard, "Can the hospital find out?"

Xia Weixiao said: "He died of a severe cold due to a weak constitution. What does it have to do with us?"

Xia, who was so calm and smiling, unexpectedly made Mebius feel a little scary.

Mobius was about to take the formation disk when he saw Xia put it back. Mobius was puzzled for a moment. Xia put the formation disk back into his pocket and said, "After thinking about it, I decided to forget it. He doesn't have many years left to live anyway. He doesn't have much Yang Qi to begin with. If he absorbs more, he might die on the spot. It would be troublesome. Let him recuperate his Yang Qi in the hospital first, and then give it to him after he is discharged."

Xia fell into the common frugal disease of magic cultivators again. He kept exhausting all the resources. He could get more little by little. It would be a pity to kill them all at once. After all, when selling aphrodisiacs, yang energy is the most effective and harmless thing for the human body.

Apart from Sisley, where does Xia get his yang energy from? He is not the kind of person who would be so crazy as to go to the street and find people to absorb his yang energy.

Xia felt that he should find a few more people who committed crimes but did not go to jail because of their high positions to absorb their yang energy.

They are rich and powerful. After absorbing the yang energy once, they go to the hospital to replenish it. It is like shearing sheep, cutting flesh with a blunt knife, which makes them uncomfortable and costs money for treatment.

If they don't receive treatment, they will die early due to weak constitution. If they receive treatment, their own yang energy will be absorbed to make blue pills and then sold. The key is that they don't know what is going on, so they can only wander between being hospitalized when sick and being discharged after being cured. In the end, they may even think that it is because of their poor constitution.

Mebius breathed a sigh of relief. "I thought you were the kind of person who would kill someone if you offended them."

Xia: "It was just a joke. What a waste."

Xia said it easily. Mebius even smiled when she heard the first half of the sentence. She really believed what Xia said about killing Sisley.

But after hearing the second half of the sentence, Mebius hesitated again. Waste? Did he just hear the word waste?

Xia: "Mobius, are there any of the Fire Moth's upper and middle management who frequently break the law or commit crimes? Those with bad character count, too."

Mebius thought for a moment, "There are too many people with bad character to count."

Xia: "Tell me a number."

Mebius: "If it's all of them, there will be some who are innocent, but if we count every one of them, there will definitely be some who slipped through the net."

Xia: "...How many mid-level and high-level members are there in the Fire Moth Chaser?"

"More than a thousand, what's the matter?"

Xia felt that the situation was a bit tricky. There were more than a thousand Yang Qi bags. Even if he could find thirty a day, that would only be more than nine hundred a month. It would be considered lucky if he could find thirty a day. After all, those middle and senior management would not gather together.

After finding the first one, he got sick again thirty days later and I have to look for another one. It’s too troublesome.

Xia was helpless, "What about removing those with bad character?"

"I don't know, but why are you asking? There are only a little over a hundred people at the Fire Moth headquarters, and I don't know most of them. I also don't know what you mean by illegal crimes... If you mean literally, then Blanca and I should be selected as well."

Mebius ate potato chips with elegant movements, and it looked like he didn't eat snacks often.

Xia: "Anyone worse than you is considered bad. There are so many bad people among the high-ranking members of the Fire Moth."
