In the living room of the Blue Starfish Mansion, Tang Xiu and Duanmu Lin continued their conversation, and there were only two of them inside now.
"Tang Xiu, I believe you won't do anything dangerous for our country, but I still need a commitment from you today." Duanmu Lin wore a solemn face so he did not even light a cigarette with his finger. Tang Xiu just gave it to her.
"I saw. So I give that commitment today, ” Tang Xiu replied. '' As long as you, Duanmu Lin, are still alive, I will never do anything dangerous for China. And I'll really help the country if it faces any problems, as long as you're alive. "
Duanmu Lin narrowed his eyes in response before he nodded without a word. His eyes kept flashing and then he said, "Tang Xiu, I understand that your commitment is based on the premise that I am still alive. You are also well aware of my identity as well as my abilities. But I can only live for a few more decades. ”
"Not really." Tang Xiu shook his head and said, "You can still live for another century or hundreds of years if you want."
Duanmu Lin trembled hearing this. He was silent for a moment before slowly saying, "What exactly do you want from me?"
"I want you to live longer, but there are some — things warning that I need for you to close your eyes," Tang Xiu said with a light smile.
"Your condition is very good and very tempting," Duanmu Lin commented. “But my position is rather political, I cannot break through the bottom line. Is your request too excessive, even the temptation to live for more centuries is something I cannot promise you. "
"I'm very happy if you have your criteria and bottom line, Senior Duanmu," Tang Xiu said with a slight smile. "But don't forget what I promised. I'll never do anything dangerous for China as long as you're alive. "
Duanmu Lin said, "Then, you mean …"
"You're also well aware of what I'm capable of, Senior Duanmu," Tang Xiu explained. "But I can tell you something. Tearing down China is very easy for me if I want it to happen. But I am a cultivator. All worldly things in the secular world do not interest me. What I pursue is to increase my cultivation level and to rise and become an Immortal.
“But the cultivation resources a farmer needs are astronomical. And where do you think I can get this resource? Naturally, I could buy them with money because I could not just rob and loot them. That's why I need to expand my power in the secular world which requires me to seek great wealth, so that I can purchase a lot of cultivation resources. You should now understand after I speak all of this, right? ”
"I can understand that," Duanmu Lin said without hesitation.
Tang Xiu nodded and continued, "Since you understand that, then it will be more likely for you to accept. I needed to deal with a lot of issues to expand my influence, such as setting up a company and making money through normal channels. But making money is not an easy task, so I need a massive intel network to know the channels to make it happen. Therefore, I decided to eradicate Darkwind and build a huge worldwide intelligence network myself. ”
Gasp …
Despite realizing the importance of Tang Xiu's statement following this, Duanmu Lin couldn't help but hold back because she never thought that it would be such a great revelation.
'Exterminating Darkwind and building an intelligence network spanning the entire world? Anyone in the world would definitely be afraid of Tang Xiu if he could realize it! '
"There's no need to be surprised, Senior Duanmu," Tang Xiu said lightly. “And don't doubt my words, because I have the power to obliterate all the cultivation forces that exist on Earth, to begin with. Darkwind's organization was just a small matter that I didn't have to spend much to get rid of, let alone use my Aces. "
Duanmu Lin suddenly recalled a beautiful, spirit-awakening woman whose strength left him suffocated by his own aura. She looked at Tang Xiu's confident face and could barely ask, "About the woman who threatened me, who is she to you? One of your guys? "
"Ah, are you talking about Yaner? She's my disciple, " replied Tang Xiu smiling.
"That's impossible!" Duanmu Lin said loudly, "His strength is terrifying, ten times stronger than yours. It is impossible for him to be your student. You're…"
Tang Xiu raised his hand to cut him off and faintly said, "Senior Duanmu, the things you know are too little. Yan'er is indeed very strong, much stronger than I am at the moment. But had it not been for an accident, I could have also destroyed the entire Earth with just a flick of my finger, and my punch could have destroyed the entire Milky Way galaxy. I don't want to reveal a few things, but that doesn't mean that I don't have the strength to do it. Logically speaking, explaining anything to you is not necessary to remember your status and capacity. But still, I came back from that place, so I had to survive and live according to the habits of this world. I'm of Chinese descent, so that's the reason why I can tell you a little. ”
'That place? Back from there? '
Disciple contracted and shrunk, Duanmu Lin finally realized how terrifying Tang Xiu was. He suddenly recalled the information from the investigation about Tang Xiu when he was in his second and third year of high school. The genius student who had previously been useless and many people even called him "idiot".
"Something very unusual must have something abnormal behind it!"
It was then that Duanmu Lin realized that he could not really read Tang Xiu and it was much harder to figure out what his whereabouts had always been.
"Tang Xiu, can you answer my question honestly?" After taking a long time to calm himself down gradually, Duanmu Lin asked.
"Please ask." Tang Xiu nodded.
"When that monstrous demonic beast appeared in the Himalayas, why were you the one who left all that time, while your powerful disciple did not appear?" Ask Duanmu Lin.
"That's because once Yaner does any action here, she and the rest will be found by the Heavenly Dao who arranged this plane," Tang Xiu replied calmly. "They have to leave this world as soon as it happens."
They?!!
"Good and be immortal?"
A disdainful look flashed across Tang Xiu's eyes as he replied nonchalantly, “There are things you don't need to ask, Senior Duanmu. The only reason I'm telling you a few things today is mainly to make you feel comfortable and accommodate us in China in the future, while at the same time, turning a blind eye. "
Duanmu Lin turned around thinking for a moment and then asked slowly, "Has it started yet?"
"Almost," Tang Xiu replied.
"Why tell me because you almost have it up and running, then?" Duanmu Lin forced a wry smile. “You are in control of the scale of your own intelligence network. But don't let me catch any traces of him. You won't get away with it, otherwise. ”
"You won't find anything as long as you don't proactively look for it," Tang Xiu smiled. “Also, I've prepared a gift to thank you, Senior Duanmu. I hope you can accept it. "
Because of that, the ancient manual of planting suddenly appeared in Tang Xiu's hands. After handing it to Duanmu Lin, he smiled and said, “You might be an ability user, but there is no rule that says ability users cannot practice ancient cultivation manuals and become cultivators. As long as you can control the two types of energy in your system, you may be able to achieve something in the future. "
'Manual to cultivate?'
Duanmu Lin looked surprised because he had not expected that Tang Xiu would be so generous and gave him a cultivation manual. One should know that such a thing is worth it, and you can expect a huge commotion once it falls into the hands of others, where you can expect a bloody storm and terror to follow after.
“New Born Soul Stage? The highest level that can be practiced up to the Nascent Soul Stage? ”
Duanmu Lin's hands trembled slightly. Her eyes turned to Tang Xiu with a complicated expression.
"Is this ... a bribe?"
"You can say it so," Tang Xiu said with a smile.
Duanmu Lin took a deep breath and a smile appeared on his face. Then, he quickly said, "Quick get out of here, boy! If you want to make money from that Aeroglider, be quick in your research and develop a second generation. ”
"Understand."
Tang Xiu faintly smiled and his figure disappeared from the room.
There was only Duanmu Lin left in the empty room. He reopened the cultivation manual and read it for over half an hour before closing it again with almost uncontrollable shock and ecstasy.
Slowly after that, his expression turned somewhat strange. He had tried to circulate the energy in his body according to the circulation route of this cultivation art. He discovered that he could easily complete the full circulation for the Qi Refining Stage. Very surprisingly, when he started circulating it according to the cultivation route in the Foundation Establishment Stage, the energy contained within his body broke through to the final stage of the Foundation Establishment Stage without any difficulty.
"This strength ... I am at least ten times stronger than before."
Duanmu Lin clenched his hands while feeling the surging power in his body which made him want to shout loudly. But after a while, he finally suppressed that urge when a thought finally appeared in his mind: If any ability can cultivate this easily after obtaining the cultivation art, it will be possible to cultivate it, then all the capabilities of the users in the agency can greatly increase their strength and then drastically increase the power of the state Special Ability Bureau at that time.
With the birth of this thought, Duanmu Lin could not sit still. He rushed out of the room and shouted, "Tell all senior level agents. Unless they were in charge of the operations in the Himalayas, all of them had to return to the headquarters in the capital! ”
The Blue Starfish Mansion.
Li Yuquan finally felt relieved after jumping off the ship with Tang Xiu and returning to the bank. She felt like she had survived a great tribulation, so she felt very grateful to Tang Xiu.
"Thank you very much, Boss," said Li Yuquan in a low voice behind Tang Xiu.
"The price I paid to save your life is quite great, you know," Tang Xiu replied without turning around. "You should know what you should do, I guess."
“My life is yours from now on. I will immediately do the command you gave me, ” Li Yuquan said respectfully.
Tang Xiu nodded in response. “You know, you have a good son. I'll take him out of the greenhouse and someone will take him right away. "
Li Yuquan's face changed and hurriedly asked, "But Boss, this …"
"You can refuse, of course," Tang Xiu said lightly. “But the consequences of your refusal will make it so that your son will only be an ordinary person for the rest of his life. You should let him go if you want him to turn into a dragon. ”
