Grand boasts are out of the question; things must be done step by step.
Wang Jixuan asked, "That matter, are you still investigating it?"
"Ah, yes."
Zhou Zhengde jumped up, walked quickly to the corner safe, and took out a stack of docunts.
He spoke quickly:
"I almost forgot if you hadn’t ntioned it.
"There’s quite a significant discovery.
"Ye Zi is very suspicious, and not only Ye Zi, but Kong Liani is also suspicious.
"Though the fire burned down Kong Liani’s wooden house, her living environnt intersects with many gang elents.
"I focused on scanning the brain mories of the hundreds of people who intersect with Kong Liani and extracted a lot of information from their subconsciousness."
Zhou Zhengde paused, waited for Wang Jixuan to finish reading the information, then continued:
"It’s certain that Kong Liani has been in contact with outside forces, remotely controlling several large gang organizations within the Scavenger Camps.
"Don’t underestimate these gangs; within the Fortress, they are actually constrained by the authorities, just a bunch of thugs, running blood banks, oppressing Lower City residents, but in the Scavenger Camps, they are like emperors, even actively trading with human Fortresses for materials with so sensitive resources.
"Then, we approached from another direction and investigated the human trafficking situation in dozens of large Scavenger Camps, and found that, over the past thirty to forty years, large numbers of people have mysteriously disappeared.
"We always thought these people were sent to the Spiritual Ability City, but... Fake Spiritual Slaves have appeared."
Zhou Zhengde smiled bitterly:
"We don’t have enough evidence yet, but we suspect that the source of these Fake Spiritual Slaves is, first, prisoners captured by Blade Beasts when they overran the human world eighty to a hundred years ago, who sohow survived till now.
"The other source is the Scavenger Camps exporting them.
"The organization dealing in this business is related to Kong Liani, and there’s another particularly bizarre thing, do you know?"
"What bizarre thing?" Wang Jixuan looked at the information, puzzled.
Zhou Zhengde took out a few photos, spread them in front of Wang Jixuan, the highlighted girls on them were extrely similar.
"Ye Zi, Kong Liani in her girlhood, and several girls who once walked out from Kong Liani’s small wooden house, all identical."
Zhou Zhengde said in a low voice:
"This is definitely not a simple clone, clones are relatively weaker compared to normal humans.
"I feel, this is more likely so sort of inheritance.
"She might be a spy for the Blade Beasts!"
Wang Jixuan:...
"I sohow feel, Kong Liani might be related to the Spirit Cultivator civilization."
"Spirit Cultivators?" Zhou Zhengde sat across the desk, perplexed, "Has the level suddenly risen this high?"
"I can’t explain, just a kind of intuition."
Wang Jixuan tapped his fingers on the table edge:
"The background of the six Spirit Cultivators, I’ve almost figured it out now, these six, are basically a microcosm of all existing Spirit Cultivators.
"No.1 Sabina, bases on the glory of the Spirit Cultivator civilization, aiming to continue the brilliance of the Spirit Cultivation Civilization, and make the Bright Wings Council Court the leading power... more or less like that.
"No.2 Wanda, is a pro-surrender faction, wanting to use surrendering to Blade Beasts as a fallback, might betray later on.
"No.3 Danier Hamon, a pro-war faction within the Spirit Cultivators, pursuing personal strength, I feel a boorish vibe from him.
"No.4 Old Sophie, I won’t even ntion, I already got rid of him, milked his assets dry, he was just a weak link and a breakthrough point of the Spirit Cultivation Civilization.
"No.5 Amina, previously ostracized by the Great Council Court, was a marginal faction within the Spirit Cultivation Civilization, now cooperates closely with us.
"The only uncertain one is No.6."
The alien soul of the Daoist leaned back in the chair, pondering carefully.
He said, "Based on the intelligence we have now, No.6 pointed out that our planet has a treasure of an Ancient Civilization, besieged by the Blade Beasts on the sa planet, Bright Wings’ three, Amina, Old Sophie, broke through the encirclent, reaching our planet."
Zhou Zhengde thought quickly, took a sheet of paper, and had Wang Jixuan explain the intelligence they had in chronological order.
After ten minutes, the two looked at the paper full of arrows.
"Sure enough, there’s a problem."
Zhou Zhengde clicked his tongue:
"We can ask No.5 later, that is, Lady Amina.
"Ask her, the first eting with this No.6... Is there a na?"
"No specific na, Amina said she is a mysterious Divine Woman."
"Hmm," Zhou Zhengde’s eyes flashed with a sharp light, "We can ask Amina, about the timing of the first eting with this Divine Woman, if No.6 Spirit Cultivator was intentionally besieged by Blade Beasts on that planet, this matter becos interesting."
The Daoist pondered for a long ti, sighed gently.
He said, "I can’t help but wonder now, if at that ti I had left with Ye Zi, what the consequences would be."
"Very likely sold off, that’s her specialty after all."
Zhou Zhengde clicked his tongue lightly.
Wang Jixuan smiled but said nothing.
He said, "Enough idle chatter, let’s get back to work, Acting Governor, my main body will soon et my beloved Tongtong, a short separation makes for a reunion full of passion."
"Tsk," Zhou Zhengde smirked, "If I were on a date, just one call from you, and I’d co over to drink with you imdiately."
"I can’t, I prioritize my confidante."
The Daoist blinked his right eye, casually sent a wisp of Qi into Zhou Zhengde’s mind.
Zhou Zhengde shivered all over, then felt invigorated, watched Wang Jixuan’s alien soul dissipate into gray smoke, and he himself perked up to plunge into his busy work.
Of noble background, yet can work as hard as a horse.
...
The next few hours, for Wang Jixuan, were destined to be romantic and pleasant.
He was hiding in Lingtong’s military Fortress, went early to the room Lingtong was assigned, put on an apron, and personally prepared a candlelight dinner of Blade Beast at for Lingtong.
Whether it’s a frontline war god or a literary young woman, it’s hard to refuse such a cheesy but ambiance-full setting.
Almost at the sa mont.
About six to seven thousand kiloters away from this military base, underground in the deep Blade Beast controlled area, a secret cloning technology laboratory, converted from a fallen human Fortress, was brightly lit.
A large number of n and won in white lab coats, wearing handcuffs and shackles, lived and worked here.
In large glass tanks were various biological samples, most of which were Blade Beast specins.
Their research seed to focus on using human cloning technology to mass-produce ordinary Blade Beasts.
In the lowest level of the lab, in a luxuriously decorated suite, a young girl walked out from a corner’s Spiritual Rune flashing portal, stepping lightly, unbuttoning her trench coat, shirt, pants, and undergarnts.
She slowly walked into a square bath three ters wide, letting herself sink into that blood-like pool, absorbing various energies within, yet retaining no Spiritual Energy herself.
The girl leaned against the edge of the pool with closed eyes, showing a serene smile at the corner of her mouth, a smile of imminent plan completion.
She caressed every inch of her body, humming softly from her nose, calling out so na as if in a trance.
And the person she was calling, at this mont, was embracing his lover, kissing passionately under the shower’s spray, exchanging mutual love.
After an unknown duration;
The girl suddenly opened her eyes, a deep starry light flickering in them, raised a hand lightly, causing a Crystal Ball to rise slowly from the pool, rotating in front of her.
The Crystal Ball contained a thumb-sized figure, identical in appearance to the girl.
If Wang Jixuan could see this object, he might be greatly astonished.
Because it closely resembled the Golden Core about to form a Nascent Soul, once Wang Jixuan stepped on the Heaven and Earth Bridge, entering the sixth rank, such a Golden Core would appear within him.
The girl fondly stroked the Crystal Ball, hugged it for a long ti, then reluctantly subrged it back into the pool.
"Soon."
She murmured quietly.
