Lu Zixun, having understood Long Jiuri’s aning, felt a heaviness in his heart.
If these Divine entities were controlled by the Lord of Sin, then the Lord of Sin would be in an invincible position; they simply couldn’t break through the defenses of these Divine entities.
As the two of them remained silent, Lu Zixun suddenly thought of sothing, the Soul Liquid.
Beta wasn’t a fool; he must have known that as long as he stayed within the Divine defensive circle, capturing the Fusion World was just a matter of ti.
But his real target must be the Soul Liquid.
He would definitely go to human society and take away the Soul Liquid the mont he fused over.
"Soul Liquid."
Just as Long Jiuri was pondering how to tear through the Divine defense circle, he suddenly heard Lu Zixun utter a phrase.
"What?"
Not understanding what Lu Zixun was referring to, Long Jiuri looked up in confusion.
"When I was in the Forgotten Land, I encountered a high-dinsional life form and learned about Beta’s affairs, which you are aware of."
Pausing for a mont, Lu Zixun slowly said, "Among them, the reason Beta is wanted is that he destroyed the research facility for Genetic Optimization Liquid, and at that ti, the facility was studying Soul Liquid."
"You an..."
Long Jiuri pondered for a mont, "The real purpose of the Lord of Sin coming to our planet is for this Soul Liquid."
Seeing Lu Zixun nod, Long Jiuri’s eyebrows furrowed, "That doesn’t add up. Why wouldn’t he wait until the high-dinsional life form had developed the Soul Liquid before destroying it?"
"This..."
Lu Zixun also found it difficult to answer Long Jiuri’s question.
He too was puzzled as to why Beta went to such lengths.
"Forget it; it doesn’t matter why he did it."
Waving his hand, Long Jiuri narrowed his eyes, "If we really can research Soul Liquid here, then it’s not about head-hunting anymore, it’s..."
"Waiting for the hare at the stump."
The phrase ca out of their mouths in unison,
The two exchanged a smile, and their heavy moods suddenly lightened.
"Since you’ve already brought up the Soul Liquid, I guess you’ve sent soone to investigate, right? Do you need help?" Long Jiuri asked, looking at Lu Zixun.
"There’s no need. If Zero can’t find it, sending others would be pointless."
Lu Zixun smiled and shook his head, his expression turning serious, "Right now, we need to unite all the forces we can to oppose the imminent Beta, and..."
Rembering how Qiao Sinian had looked before, Lu Zixun fell silent for a while before speaking, "We need proper psychological counseling because, after all, fear is one of the most contagious emotions."
"That might be difficult to accomplish."
Long Jiuri pursed his lips, "After all, it’s difficult for a Spiritual Ability User not to fear in the face of overwhelming power."
"Let’s just try our best; not trying isn’t an option either."
After saying this, Lu Zixun got up and said, "Okay, I better go. Demon Country also needs to prepare for battle."
"Okay."
...
After leaving Long Jiuri’s place, Lu Zixun returned to Pan Building.
He began thinking of ways to quickly enhance combat strength.
The overall strength of the Fusion World was simply too low, too easily routed by fanatics.
After much thought, Lu Zixun went to Lin Siyin’s room.
At this mont, Lin Siyin was engrossed in researching talismanic techniques, the light from Billions of Stars twinkling faintly beside her.
Lu Zixun approached Lin Siyin from behind and wrapped his arms around her, resting his head lightly on her shoulder.
"Why are you here?"
Lin Siyin raised her hand and patted Lu Zixun’s head, her tone slightly annoyed, "What’s the matter? Did soone upset you, Mr. Xun?"
"No, I just needed to talk to you about sothing."
Nuzzling his head against Lin Siyin’s neck, Lu Zixun let go and sat down beside her.
"So, you an we need a Defensive Talisman that can cover the combat zone with the ability to withstand Extraordinary Power?"
After Lu Zixun finished speaking, Lin Siyin summarized the matter.
"Yes, without the Defensive Talisman, we would have no ans of protection if we face a direct overpowering attack."
"I understand. I’ll take care of this matter."
Lin Siyin’s fingertips lightly traced the Billions of Stars as she smiled slightly, "Besides this, is there anything else you’re hiding from ?"
After a mont of silence, Lu Zixun shook his head and smiled, "This ti, we only need to deal with the Eight-layer World. There’s nothing more."
Lin Siyin gazed steadily at Lu Zixun, sighing inwardly. Looking up at him, she said, "Hmm, it better be so."
After having dinner with Lin Siyin, Lu Zixun also received a ssage from Zero Investigation.
They had discovered a research facility in human society, currently working on Soul Liquid.
Upon hearing this news, Lu Zixun inhaled deeply; his conjectures weren’t wrong, they could indeed "wait for the hare at the stump."
After requesting Zero to send the location, Lu Zixun looked at it and fell into deep thought.
Why was the location of this research facility... at Yu Ren Middle School?
Crossing through the Void, he arrived at Yu Ren Center.
Thinking back to the poisonous insect he had first encountered, perhaps it was no accident.
Instead, that insect may have been a guardian of the research facility all along.
Why would Beta specifically choose Blue Star to research Soul Liquid? It was because soone here had already developed it.
Lu Zixun believed there was soone who might know the answer.
Lin Beisheng entered the room, surprised to see Lu Zixun sitting on the sofa, "Xiao Xun, what brings you here?"
"Uncle."
With a smile, Lu Zixun pondered for a mont, then got straight to the point, "You... aren’t really a teacher, are you?"
Lin Beisheng’s expression stiffened slightly, and he chuckled awkwardly, "I indeed wasn’t in the past, but after being cursed, I am just a teacher now. Why ask this suddenly?"
The Destiny Roulette flashed in Lu Zixun’s eyes as he gazed at Lin Beisheng, pursing his lips, "Bai Ze."
Lin Beisheng’s pupils contracted as he silently looked at Lu Zixun, not uttering a word.
"I was always curious why the Ouyang Family took away Ouyang Yin but only cursed you, without killing you."
Lu Zixun paused, then continued, "And when I went to the ruins of the Ouyang Family and rescued your wife, my doubts deepened. The Ouyang Family isn’t known for being chivalrous; they wouldn’t go to such lengths for nothing."
"When I found out the research facility for Soul Liquid was right beneath this place, it occurred to imdiately, it must be you... indeed..."
Lu Zixun bit his lip, "You were the one who developed sothing like Soul Liquid initially, that lead to Si Yin’s birth."
