Chapter 1257: Chapter 1257
When Uncle Long spoke of this, a complex expression of pride and helplessness appeared in his eyes.
Zhang Yang frowned slightly, secretly pondering the deeper aning behind Uncle Long’s actions.
“So, what did you hear through the surveillance equipnt?” Zhang Yang couldn’t help but ask.
Uncle Long took a deep breath, as if recalling those unbearable yet crucial mories.
“Initially, I just heard so vague discussions about the progress of the experints, data analysis, and the like, but the specifics were unclear.”
“At the ti, I didn’t think much of it, just hoping to grasp more secrets of the Qingyi Sect, which might beco a bigger bargaining chip in the future.”
“However, as ti went on, fragnted information gradually pieced together, making realize the gravity of the situation.”
“I heard them ntion using living people for experints, and in their eyes, those innocent lives were manipulated and tornted like lab mice.” At this point, a trace of indignation appeared on Uncle Long’s face.
It seed that even Uncle Long, who united the underground forces, was both shocked and angry at such heinous acts.
Tuantuan couldn’t help but shiver, “That’s too cruel, aren’t they afraid of retribution?”
The re thought of the pain those innocent people suffered was chilling.
Uncle Long shook his head with a bitter smile, “Driven by interests and the thirst for power, those people have long lost their basic humanity. They spare no expense for the so-called experintal results.”
“Did you hear anything specific about the Soul Resurrection Grass experints?” Zhang Yang fixed his gaze on Uncle Long; this was his most pressing concern.
Uncle Long nodded, “Once, I vaguely heard them discussing the effects and side effects of the Soul Resurrection Grass.”
“It seems the Soul Resurrection Grass has the magical effect of reshaping ridians and enhancing skill, but if used improperly, it could drive one insane and make them lose their reason.”
Zhang Yang furrowed his brow, “It seems the Soul Resurrection Grass is indeed a dangerous thing. Did they ntion how to control these side effects?”
Uncle Long pondered for a mont, “They seed to ntion so thods, but I didn’t catch the details.”
“I only rember they seed to be researching a complentary drug to neutralize so of the side effects while taking the Soul Resurrection Grass.”
“Where is this drug now? Do you know?” A hint of urgency flashed in Zhang Yang’s eyes.
Uncle Long spread his hands helplessly, “I don’t know either. The Qingyi Sect people are very cautious, and they have never revealed the storage location of this critical drug in the surveillance.”
“Moreover, given their personality, they would surely hide it in an extrely secretive place.”
At this mont, the butler, who had been listening silently, suddenly spoke, “Brother Long, I think our top priority now is to find a way to leave here and find a safe place to hide.”
“Wang Jiu and the Qingyi Sect people will definitely not let us go easily, and once they co after us, we might not be able to handle it.”
Uncle Long nodded, “You are right.”
“Now that my martial arts are wasted, and although Brother Zhang Yang has excellent dical skills, facing such a behemoth as the Qingyi Sect is still beyond our capabilities.”
“We must quickly find a hidden place to hide and plan from there.”
Zhang Yang looked at Uncle Long and the butler, then said, “Is this all you have to tell ?”
“If the Qingyi Sect goes to such great lengths just to strengthen people’s bodies, there’s no need to do so.”
“This isn’t an era of strife for supremacy, even if they beco stronger, what use does it serve?”
“It can’t be just for this that they are risking establishing such an underground secret base.”
“The effects of the Soul Resurrection Grass can’t be limited to just this, what else do you know?”
Uncle Long smiled at Zhang Yang and said, “What I know is only this; these matters are essentially ascertainable facts.”
“The rest is just my speculation, and I can’t guarantee it’s correct.”
“So do you still plan to listen?”
Zhang Yang said impatiently, “Isn’t that nonsense?”
Zhang Yang knew that Uncle Long certainly knew a lot more, and he was likely trying to negotiate by withholding information.
So Zhang Yang, too, was disinclined to beat around the bush, straightforwardly saying, “Just say what conditions you have, as long as it’s not too excessive, considering our previous collaboration, it’s not impossible to agree.”
Seeing Zhang Yang being so direct, Uncle Long also responded without reservation, “Alright, since that’s the case, I won’t be polite with you.”
“You don’t need to be so on guard; this ti I want to ask you to help us brothers get out of this situation.”
“You saw first-hand how severely I offended that scoundrel Wang Jiu.”
“Currently, if Wang Jiu cos knocking, I might not be able to fend him off.”
“So I need you to step in and help, but rest assured, you won’t take action for nothing.”
“Besides all the information I have, I’ll also pay an additional reward, ensuring you won’t lose out.”
Zhang Yang wasn’t just after money; he wanted to understand what the Qingyi Sect was really up to and what their true purpose was.
“Fine, say everything you know, and then I’ll have Tuantuan arrange for you to go abroad for a while.”
“Going abroad might not be safe; although Qingyi Sect is a local power, its influence abroad is equally significant.”
“You’ve been targeted by several conglorates in H Country before, and behind this was the Qingyi Sect’s shadow; there’s no need for to tell you this.”
“Moreover, as I’ve said before, Qingyi Sect likes to recruit disciples with substantial backgrounds, and among these disciples, quite a few have significant influence abroad, so it’s not safe abroad.”
Zhang Yang frowned and then impatiently asked, “What exactly do you want, just say it.”
Uncle Long smiled and said, “Since you put it that way, I won’t hold back.”
“Why not let my brother and stay by your side for now.”
“That way, we can look out for each other.”
Zhang Yang was surprised, looking at Uncle Long, not expecting him to propose such a condition.
“What are you two grown n going to do following ?” Zhang Yang looked disdainful.
“Zhang Yang, you can’t say that; I still have so strength, you know. If you’re going to deal with the Qingyi Sect, you’ll need soone to run errands and gather information for you.”
“Who do you think is more suited than ?”
