18: New findings, divergent opinions

On the top floor of an old, dilapidated building in Mingde City, the surrounding walls had long been replaced with special steel plates.

Not only for defense, but also for soundproofing, constant temperature, and other effects. It could be said to be an extremely complete secret room.

On both sides of the walls were some bottles and jars, soaking various insect corpses or the limbs of demon beasts.

Li Wuji had quietly bought this place using a fake identity, after all, money makes the world go 'round, and then transformed it into his laboratory.

Originally, he was at home, but one time Li Mingxuan, who was in junior high, accidentally stumbled in. Although he didn't see anything, he still decided to move.

Otherwise, as Li Mingxuan grew older, he would eventually discover it, and Li Wuji was also unsure what might happen during the experiments.

So, this secret room was not only to prevent others from entering but also to prevent accidents.

Facts proved that his idea was correct. Once, Li Wuji had created a monster, and before he could issue a command, the other party actually self-destructed.

If it weren't for Luo Xiu, he would have been seriously injured.

The remaining items in the room were a workbench and a rectangular operating table. Li Wuji was dissecting a corpse with a special surgical knife.

Upon closer inspection, although the corpse was in human form, it had a mouth similar to a chicken's and a pair of wings behind it.

Li Wuji dissected it step by step without changing his expression. It was a long time before he put down the surgical knife.

"Interesting, there are signs of preliminary Fusion between the two. If it could be a little more stable, it might really be another path of cultivation.

No, this is no longer human. It can be said that a species has been created, a completely new species!"

Saying this, Li Wuji showed excitement. This discovery gave him great inspiration.

If he could find a stable sequence, he could transform humans into half-insect people.

If successful, he would no longer be restricted everywhere.

Just then, there was a knock on the door. Hearing three short and one long knock, the door opened.

Shadow's figure appeared outside the door. After walking closer, he spoke, "Master, as you expected, Li Mingxuan was also attacked by the Beast God Sect.

They dispatched nineteen people, including a Martial Warrior Realm. This is his corpse."

As Shadow's words fell, the Martial Warrior Realm who had previously attacked Li Mingxuan quietly appeared on the ground.

Li Wuji's eyes flickered. Earlier, when he was cultivating at home, Shadow had informed him that three Beast God Sect members were approaching, and their target was clearly the floor they were on.

The moment the three arrived at their door, Shadow attacked, and in the blink of an eye, the three fainted.

The one on the operating table now was one of the three. The other two had already entered Luo Xiu's stomach.

"Where is Mingxuan?"

"The young Master is not in danger of losing his life, but he is slightly injured!"

"Yue Shan made a move, right!"

"Yes, according to your instructions, he only made a move after reaching some agreements when the young Master couldn't handle it."

Li Wuji nodded without speaking. Seeing this, Shadow continued.

"The sub-ants from the Martial Security Bureau have dissipated, and the new sub-ants have not yet arrived!"

Sub-ants are Shadow's special ability. He can consume spiritual power to condense sub-ants similar to his main body. The main body can perceive everything the sub-ants perceive.

However, there is a distance limit, and they dissipate every seven days, but the advantage is that sub-ants are difficult to detect. So far, there have been no cases of sub-ants being discovered.

However, Li Wuji had also experimented through Luo Xiu. A Martial Master Realm could sense the presence of sub-ants, but only with active detection.

Although it's not a big problem, this has already exposed a drawback, which is why he improved Shadow.

"How is Galan doing?"

"This was transferred to you by Galan!"

Li Wuji took the storage ring and checked it. Inside were the demon beasts he had previously asked her to pay attention to.

In addition, there were the corpses of other demon beasts, as well as dozens of demon cores and some bottles and jars.

"Continue to monitor the Martial Security Bureau and find the mastermind behind this!"

"Shadow obeys the command!"

Inside the Martial Security Bureau, Ye Jun was talking to a handsome young man in a white coat.

The man's name was Gu Qing, and he was considered Ye Jun's assistant. He was holding a report in his hand.

"This is the report on that corpse!"

This made Ye Jun excited. He took the report directly, "Thanks, I'll treat you to a meal later!"

Gu Qing smiled and didn't say anything, "When do you not say that?"

"Alas, next time for sure."

Ye Jun waved his hand, and then carefully examined the report, but the more he read, the more his brows furrowed.

After a long time, he slowly closed the report in his hand, "I hope it's not true!"

Hearing Ye Jun's murmur, Gu Qing looked at him in confusion, "What's wrong, is something not right?"

Ye Jun looked at Gu Qing solemnly, "The death marks on that corpse are like it was corroded by something. This is the same as the way that monster killed people at the very beginning.

But it's been two or three years, how could it still use such inferior methods to kill people, and the people it killed are related to Lin Junfeng's family.

All of this seems to be related to these Li brothers, is it a coincidence or..."

Ye Jun's voice became softer and softer, so much so that Gu Qing couldn't hear the later part, perhaps only Ye Jun himself knew.

"Gradually forgetting that I can't catch up with tomorrow

As long as I tightly grasp the longing

Tomorrow, there will be no more of your smiling face

Gradually forgetting, forgetting the time

I just need to follow the route of memory

To the deepest part..."

Suddenly, Ye Jun's phone rang, and his expression changed after answering.

"You stay there, I'll be right there."

Gu Qing saw Ye Jun's surprised expression and knew something had happened, "Do you need help?"

"No need, great kindness needs no words, later..."

"Alright, go quickly, be careful!"

Ye Jun waved his hand until he disappeared around the corner of the Martial Security Bureau corridor.

After he left, the gentle smile on Gu Qing's face immediately turned gloomy.

He clearly heard the voice from the phone just now and knew that his plan had failed.

"Li Mingxuan is actually fine, what a bunch of useless people, but don't ruin the Lord's plan."

On a bustling street, Li Mingxuan leaned against the roadside, clutching his chest.

He vigilantly checked his surroundings until a car stopped in front of him. The door opened and it was Ye Jun inside.

"Get in!"

Li Mingxuan jumped in without hesitation, his eyes fixed on Ye Jun, "I want to withdraw from the Martial Security Bureau!"

Ye Jun raised an eyebrow, "Do you think there's a mole in my Martial Security Bureau?"

"Isn't there? If I weren't lucky, I would have died this time!"

When he called earlier, Li Mingxuan had described the events, but he omitted the part about Yue Shan's intervention. He only said that he escaped and knew nothing about what happened afterward.

"We went to the place you mentioned, and there were indeed signs of a struggle. All those Beast God Sect members were dead.

They were all killed with one blow, but the number doesn't match what you said. There's one missing, only eighteen corpses."

A hint of shock flashed in the depths of Li Mingxuan's eyes. He had personally killed each of those people and confirmed their deaths.

But at the moment, he quickly hid it and continued to stare at Ye Jun.

"What do you mean? Are you saying I'm lying, or are you saying I'm colluding with the Beast God Sect?"
