363: Drug side effects, studying abroad

“Since you two already know that the main ingredient of this potion is blood, you should also know about its side effects, right?”

Jiang Chuan looked at the two Experts and asked with a smile.

“Hmm, this potion has significant side effects.”

“Firstly, this potion causes dependency. Once injected, a person will constantly desire more injections. It’s similar to a drug that causes addiction.”

“Secondly, the main ingredient of this potion is, after all, blood—specifically, the blood of an extraterrestrial creature. Therefore, it is not compatible with the human body.”

“This means that while this substance allows a person to maintain eternal youth, if the potion is not injected within a certain period, drastic changes will occur within the injected person’s body. These changes will lead to death, and there will be no cure.”

“So, what you two mean is that once the heavenly master potion is injected, one must continue injecting it without interruption. If it’s not injected within a certain period, the heavenly master potion will react in the human body, leading to the death of the person who received the injection, correct?”

Upon hearing their words, Jiang Chuan slowly articulated the conclusion he had reached.

“Mr. Jiang, you are correct.”

“Actually, there is a third side effect: the potion will subtly change a person’s personality. After injecting this potion, a person’s personality will become irritable, indecisive, and very strange. Of course, all of this is normal and will not cause death.”

The two Experts nodded, then revealed the other side effects of the heavenly master potion.

“That’s good then.”

Jiang Chuan nodded, knowing that the last side effect would not cause death.

“I wonder, do the two Experts have a method to counteract this potion?”

Jiang Chuan looked at the two Experts and slowly asked this question.

“Currently, there is no method. Of course, Mr. Jiang, if you can obtain a drop of extraterrestrial blood, we might have a way to find a solution.”

The two Experts shook their heads and said this to Jiang Chuan.

The blood in the heavenly master potion was actually a diluted component. If they could obtain the original blood, they might truly be able to research an antidote.

“Alright, I’ll try to figure out a way to get the blood then.”

Jiang Chuan could only smile bitterly upon hearing the words of the two Experts.

“Two Experts, you’ve worked hard. Now, you should take some time to relax. If there’s anything you want to research, just tell the staff, and they will provide you with all the materials you need.”

“Understood, thank you, Mr. Jiang.”

The two Experts smiled and thanked Jiang Chuan.

Jiang Chuan turned and left the laboratory, then returned home.

“Xiaochuan, when did you get back?”

When Jiang Chuan returned home, his elderly mother was also there. Seeing Jiang Chuan return, she asked with excitement.

“Mom, my work is temporarily handled. I plan to come back and rest for a while, then I’ll leave again.”

Jiang Chuan smiled and explained to his elderly mother upon hearing her words.

That evening, Mu Qingcheng also returned, and the family happily had a simple meal together.

His elderly mother actually wanted to spend more time with her son, but she was also very busy and naturally had no time to accompany him. So, this task naturally fell to Mu Qingcheng.

Mu Qingcheng had also been taking a break during this time, not taking on any acting roles. She planned to go abroad for further study in acting, as she had already encountered a bottleneck and couldn’t improve her acting skills.

“Since you want to go abroad for further study, I naturally support you. However, foreign countries are quite chaotic after all, so I’ll arrange a few people to protect you.”

Jiang Chuan also said this to Mu Qingcheng with a smile.

“Okay.”

Mu Qingcheng did not refuse Jiang Chuan’s kindness. She also knew that foreign countries were actually very chaotic during this period, and the domestic news often exposed the chaos abroad. When traveling, it was natural to protect oneself.

For the next period, Jiang Chuan and Mu Qingcheng stayed together.

Half a month later, Mu Qingcheng also received an invitation letter for advanced studies at a university abroad.

“I might have to leave. This departure will be for a long time. If you have time, you must come and see me.”

“Don’t worry, as long as I have time, I’ll go to the West to see you.”

Jiang Chuan personally saw Mu Qingcheng onto the private plane and said to her with a smile.

Mu Qingcheng left China and went to the West for advanced studies.

“Are you at the main base?”

Jiang Chuan contacted Bai Mengxue and asked her.

“Hmm, is your mission complete?”

Bai Mengxue answered Jiang Chuan’s call, nodded, and then asked.

“Yes, this mission was very smooth. We also got a long vacation. You should go relax now too. Don’t worry about the Heavenly Lord Society for now. Go back to where you want to go and take a look.”

Upon hearing Bai Mengxue’s words, Jiang Chuan immediately said this with a smile.

“Hmm, the Heavenly Lord Society’s scale is already sufficient. We don’t need to recruit more people. Now, we just need to arrange a good gathering.”

Bai Mengxue also agreed after hearing Jiang Chuan’s words.

“Alright, let’s meet then. We can all have a meal together.”

“Okay.”

Bai Mengxue did not refuse Jiang Chuan’s kindness and readily agreed.

Jiang Chuan also immediately took a flight to Modu.

Wang Cong and Xu Jia had also arrived in Modu, as everyone had received Jiang Chuan’s call and knew that he had returned to China.

“Long time no see.”

When Jiang Chuan walked out of the airport, Wang Cong personally greeted him. The two embraced and said with a smile.

“Let’s go, the place has been arranged. Today, you have to tell us all about what happened during this time.”

Wang Cong and the others had joined the Heavenly Lord Society and knew that Jiang Chuan and his team often had to complete dangerous missions. Although they couldn’t participate in such missions, they were very curious.

“Alright.”

Jiang Chuan also smiled and agreed to Wang Cong’s words.

When the group arrived at the restaurant, everyone became familiar with each other. Bai Mengxue also integrated into the group. Everyone was chatting and laughing, and Jiang Chuan also shared some details of the missions, which made everyone yearn for them.

However, Wang Cong and Xu Jia understood that their strength was not enough. If they rashly went to complete missions, they might fall forever. They could only dream about it, nothing more.

The next day.

Bai Mengxue also left Modu, planning to go home first and also check on her own territory.
