Moreover, my son has just put on a highly satisfactory show for me. Hai Ruose is in a very good mood, and he relaxes into his chair, saying, "I am indeed a dilettante, but how many people in the world can be pretentious to the extent that I am?"
His words reveal a sense of pride. The young man says nothing, after all, his father is undoubtedly one of the top-tier people in the world, although lurking underground, he is practically the real ruler of the country.
It is worth mentioning that the person who ordered the relevant departments to stop pursuing Lin Beichen's disturbances was this elder. An underground ant could extend its reach into the military department... After a silent pause, the young man suddenly asks, "Have you been afraid of me all these years?"
The old man's expression in an instant becomes hideous and terrifying, "You beast, what are you saying?" he roars.
However, the young man is not surprised by his father's great reaction, after all, the fewer flaws a person has, the more likely they are to lose composure because of them.
"I've been thinking, why did you do this? What benefit does it provide you to keep me living in a tragic fate for years?"
Ignoring his father's increasingly murderous aura, he continues speaking to himself, "Then, I started to doubt whether you recruited these excellent people just to lay the foundation for a grand cause? But right from the start, the people conducting experiments were these excellent ones, why is that? You initially didn't expect this experiment could help you achieve greatness nor understood its rules..."
"Later I finally understood that you are afraid, frightened, jealous. You who have struggled all your life have no sense of security. You fear your power being seized..." At this point, Hai Ruose suddenly roars, "Kill him for me!"
Everyone instantly raised their guns ready to act, but it was already too late. The young man had already killed his father in a flash of lightning, no one knew that Hai Ruose had maliciously subjected his child to that experiment at birth, now the young man has grown strong to a degree ordinary people cannot comprehend.
"But... is power really that important?"
He murmurs to himself.
Meanwhile, elsewhere, Li Congjing steps forward silently with a machine in her hand, suddenly stopping halfway and coldly turns her head to question, "Who's there?"
The previous act seemed to have drained all her energy, even her always adorable voice disappeared.
Lin Beichen emerged helplessly, smiling bitterly inside, as if he constantly ran into this group of people unexpectedly, "Actually, we mean no offense."
He explained with a stiff smile.
Now his Spiritual Qi is nearly depleted, with hardly any ability to escape, and facing off against Li Congjing...
To be honest, even at his peak, Lin Beichen never had the confidence to defeat this seemingly cute yet truly insane woman. Li Congjing displayed a complex expression remembering Joseph's true cause of death.
After a stiff standstill, the tension between them escalated.
"Lin Beichen, if I give you all my wealth, can you extend my life?" Li Congjing asks softly, hopefully.
Lin Beichen hesitated for a moment, then stiffly nodded.
He really doesn't know what this somewhat crazy woman wants, but at this moment, he chooses to agree first.
Regarding life extension, he doesn't have absolute certainty, he can only try his best.
After all, the effects of life extension are not immediately perceivable, maybe then he can use some rhetoric to muddle through.
"Then, I am willing to give you all my wealth to help you complete your task. But I only hope you promise to extend someone's life." Li Congjing's desire made Lin Beichen feel somewhat uneasy.
Although he didn't witness Li Congjing killing her trusted person, he could feel this woman's emotions near breakdown.
Recalling when he first met Li Congjing, she was already close to collapse. Now, her psyche seems even more distorted. Despite knowing Li Congjing is not pure-hearted, Lin Beichen still feels sympathy, as for someone still possessing emotions, breakdown is a pitiable state.
"Tell me, who needs life extension?" Lin Beichen signaled Flying Eagle and others nearby to stay calm and not act rashly.
"I and Joseph have three incredibly powerful assistants," Li Congjing explained, "Without those bizarre interferences, each of them has the capability to defeat you."
Lin Beichen's lips curled slightly, resonating with Li Congjing's words, yet he grumbled silently, Can't you respect when you need help from me? Of course, he didn't speak these words. After all, if Li Congjing decides to act, most people here could suffer. Lin Beichen doesn't have the time to tango with this madwoman.
"These three are very trustworthy, occupying an important place in my heart," Li Congjing continued, "Joseph has one particularly satisfactory follower, apart from me and another person, he holds this follower in high regard. You may call him Five."
