To draw blood for baiting?

The egg, which had just fallen into the half-meter deep vertical pit in the soil, seemed to come alive.

Although the egg was already alive, it instantly vanished deeper underground!

Moreover, Jiang Xuan clearly saw that the egg, as if possessing an Evasion Technique, directly “melted” into the soil, leaving no trace.

“This thing is a bit strange; I guess it’s to be expected from something of the Devouring Darkness…”

Jiang Xuan clicked his tongue; now, even he couldn't track this egg.

However, since this was meant to assassinate Xuanyuan Feng, he wasn’t bothered to investigate further, as more investigation might even cause trouble.

Seeing that the task was complete, Jiang Xuan directly climbed over the school wall, then entered a restroom, removed his thousand faces, and reverted to his original appearance.

Immediately after, he aimlessly wandered outside for two hours, mentally sorting out recent events, then returned to the entrance of Lei Cheng No. 1 Middle School at 5 PM.

Sure enough, a stretched Rolls-Royce luxury car was already waiting for him at the school gate.

At the car door of the luxury sedan, a tall, executive-dressed woman, holding a document, seemed to be waiting for someone.

“Is this the person the mysterious man from Devouring Darkness said would pick me up after school today? What does she want to take me to do?”

Although Jiang Xuan was puzzled, he still walked towards the beautiful woman.

After all, not only was he now a member of the Devouring Darkness, but the tasks given to him by the Devouring Darkness perfectly aligned with his goals.

To quickly deal with Xuanyuan Feng, he didn’t even mind paying some price, even if it meant taking a small loss and being slept with by this female CEO.

As soon as he walked a few meters away from the beautiful woman dressed as a CEO, she looked up, then showed a surprised expression and quickly walked over, her high heels clicking on the ground.

“Hello, Mr. Jiang Xuan, I am Victoria, the president of the Superconducting Gene Company’s branch in the City of Flame.

It’s a pleasure to meet you.”

Jiang Xuan looked at her strangely and asked:

“What do you need my cooperation for? Also, you have an Eastern appearance, so why do you have a Western name?”

Victoria pushed up her glasses, her demeanor both ascetic and seductive; ascetic due to her cold appearance, and seductive due to her OL suit dress and long black-stockinged legs.

She replied:

“Mr. Jiang Xuan, don’t you think this name sounds good? If you need one, I can also give you one, like Jax Snowfack.”

Jiang Xuan: ... “Never mind, no need.”

Just from this brief conversation, he realized that this female CEO might be a bit eccentric.

Who just randomly gives people Western names right off the bat!

Victoria sighed softly:

“Oh, really? That’s a pity.

But it’s okay, Mr. Jiang Xuan, please get in the car.

I need to take you to a place, a mysterious place.”

Jiang Xuan countered:

“Are we going to the Superconducting Gene Company office in Lei City’s Southeast District?”

Victoria’s ice-cold face immediately showed surprise:

“How did you know?”

Jiang Xuan was a bit speechless:

“Uh… didn’t you just introduce yourself as the director of a branch of the Superconducting Gene Company…?”

Victoria then realized, nodding thoughtfully:

“That makes sense… It seems Mr. Jiang Xuan is indeed as smart as the rumors say!”

Jiang Xuan was somewhat dumbfounded; what kind of smarts was this? Anyone could guess, right!

Without overthinking it, seeing Victoria open the door for him, Jiang Xuan got into the luxury car.

Unexpectedly, there was no driver in the car.

After Victoria thoughtfully closed the door for him, she took her long black-stockinged legs around to the driver’s seat, opened the door, and got in.

Slam!

The moment the car door closed, Jiang Xuan clearly saw a blue light ripple from the car’s windows, instantly sweeping across the entire stretched luxury car.

At that instant, all sounds outside the car vanished, whether it was horns, street vendors’ cries, or people’s conversations… the entire world suddenly fell silent.

Victoria spoke at this moment:

“Mr. Jiang Xuan, there’s no need to panic.

This is to ensure the confidentiality of what we are about to discuss.

Rest assured, not a single word we say will be leaked, and no one will be able to eavesdrop.”

Jiang Xuan nodded but did not speak first, instead quietly waiting for Victoria’s next words.

Victoria’s calf, encased in black stockings, moved, seemingly pressing the accelerator, and the car immediately drove onto the road, joining the dense traffic.

Only then did Victoria say seriously:

“Mr. Jiang Xuan, I am also a member of the Devouring Darkness.

This is my badge.

To ensure safety, please also show your badge.”

As she spoke, she used True Gang to control a Devouring Darkness badge, making it float in front of Jiang Xuan.

A Martial Emperor!

Jiang Xuan’s heart tightened when he saw the white True Gang.

To be honest, he hadn’t noticed at all that Victoria was a Martial Emperor.

After a moment’s thought, his space ring on his index finger flashed, and he also took out his Devouring Darkness badge.

Both badges suddenly flashed simultaneously, and the abyss maw pattern on them lit up.

“Good, confirmation complete.

Now I can safely tell you about the organization’s business, Mr. Jiang Xuan.”

Victoria seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, retrieving her own badge with True Gang, then said:

“We need a drop of your blood, just one drop.

However, we need to go to the Superconducting Gene Company office in Lei City to extract it using a special method.”

“Okay.”

Jiang Xuan agreed first, then narrowed his eyes, vaguely guessing something.

Was this to use his blood as bait to attract Xuanyuan Feng?

But what could one drop of blood do?

Seeing his quick agreement, Victoria nodded slightly and added:

“As compensation, we will give you ten percent of the shares of the Superconducting Gene Company’s branch in the City of Flame.

This means you will also be a major shareholder of the branch from now on!”

Although Jiang Xuan wasn’t short on money, he was still somewhat surprised.

Superconducting Gene Company was a large company spanning the entire Human Federation; even just the branch in the City of Flame had an astonishing market value.

Moreover, the equity structure of such a large company must be extremely complex.

Him holding ten percent of the branch’s shares indeed made him a major shareholder.

“Perfect, with this shareholder status, I can try out the Universe Pill Refining Art…”

Just as he was thinking, the car suddenly stopped, having arrived at the main entrance of the Superconducting Gene Company office.

“Mr. Jiang Xuan, please.”

Victoria got out of the car again, actively opening the door for him, her attitude impeccable.
