656: Chapter 656 I Want to Try

"What's his name?" Oriental Chen asked.

"He is a very mysterious person in history: Ghost Valley Master," Shen Huiying replied.

"It's him?" Oriental Chen thought it was reasonable.

The famous people in history who claimed to be disciples of Ghost Valley Master spanned several centuries, and historians estimated his lifespan to be at least several hundred years.

If everything Shen Huiying said was true, then this Ghost Valley Master must also be a Mutant.

"Is he still alive?" Oriental Chen asked.

"I guess it's very likely he is still alive," Shen Huiying replied.

"Based on what?"

"Firstly, three thousand years ago, he was a Mahayana stage Cultivator, which means an 8th-stage Mutant. Such a powerful figure, I'm afraid few people could threaten his safety."

"Secondly, he is the person I have seen who understands cultivation methods the most, and he is proficient in the art of Qimen Dunjia, making him unpredictable."

"Finally, and most importantly. Up until now, within Huaguo, no Cultivator dares to cause trouble. Why? Because those who did cause trouble have all died," Shen Huiying explained.

"You mean to say that within Huaguo, there are still many experts secretly maintaining order in Huaguo?" Oriental Chen asked.

"Exactly. So, for us small fries, besides hiding our identities and living low-key, there's no other way out."

"Now that I know your true identity, what do you plan to do?" Oriental Chen asked.

"Our survival rule is very simple. Either completely eliminate the person who knows our identity, or quickly escape and change identities to continue hiding. Once noticed, it's a dead end. Tell me, what should I choose?" Shen Huiying looked at him.

"You can work for me," Oriental Chen suggested.

He felt that he must control some high-stage Mutants, otherwise, it would be difficult to control the situation.

"Pfft~" Shen Huiying laughed.

"If my identity hadn't been discovered, I could consider working for you. But now, it's impossible."

"I can keep it a secret for you," Oriental Chen said.

"Keep it a secret? Hahaha, aren't you interested in my strength as a 7th-stage Mutant? You want to use my strength and also keep it a secret for me, don't you think that's very contradictory?" Shen Huiying laughed loudly.

Her survival experience told her that keeping secrets itself was unreliable.

"I don't understand, now that humanity has reached a time of life and death, why do you still hide your strength."

Oriental Chen meant, if the nest is overturned, how can any egg remain intact?

"No one wants to hide, but you need to have absolute strength, don't you?"

"Actually, you don't have any other choice now. Huaguo is vast, but there are only 300 underground bases. No matter which base you go to, it won't be as safe as here," Oriental Chen said in reverse.

Shen Huiying remained silent.

"And Shanshan. If you don't trust me, are you going to take her away? If you take her, will it really be safer than staying here?" Oriental Chen pressed on.

"What do you want me to do?" Shen Huiying asked.

She was already preparing to compromise.

Oriental Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

"Actually, I know your concerns. To be honest, I don't plan to use your strength as a 7th-stage Mutant. Because once you are exposed, it might bring stronger enemies here."

"Nor do I need your scientific research technology, because I believe the technology I possess is more advanced than yours."

Shen Huiying didn't refute this point.

The fully automatic production chambers in the underground base could grow various crops and raise various poultry.

She admitted to herself that she didn't have such technology.

"Then what do you need me for?" Shen Huiying asked.

If she didn't have to expose her strength, Shen Huiying felt that staying here was acceptable.

"I need your blood, I need your cooperation," Oriental Chen said.

"You still want to study the secret of crystals condensation in the human body?" Shen Huiying asked.

"Exactly. I want to try," Oriental Chen replied.

He had fully unlocked Gene Programming and was capable of modifying the genes of adults. If he could discover the genes that influence human crystals condensation, he could mass-produce high-stage Mutants.

In this way, combined with battle armor made of vibranium and powered by zhen crystal as the energy core, as well as spacecraft, he was confident in directly clearing out the Sirius Remnants hidden on the far side of the moon.

Even if there were an unknown number of experts with unknown strength hidden among humans, he would still dare to roam the world freely.

"If I'm not mistaken, you'll also research Shanshan, right?" Shen Huiying asked.

This was inevitable.

Shen Huiying had cultivated properly for three thousand years, and Oriental Chen wouldn't wait that long.

Therefore, the reason for Shanshan's rapid advancement to the 7th stage became the key to mass-producing high-stage Mutants.
