97: Death threats, warning Zhou Qingxia

Long Feiyang, however, suddenly felt an intense, fatal threat, as if he would immediately invite disaster upon himself if he truly harmed Zhou Qingxia.

[Warning! If the host harms a Justicer without cause again, the host will be downgraded to a the malicious one and immediately arrested and taken to the Sanctuary, to suffer punishment for all eternity.]

The Auxiliary System issued a stern warning, and the life-threatening sense of crisis grew even stronger, sending shivers down Long Feiyang's spine.

Even though he had already activated all his traits, talents, and Superpower domain, boosting his strength to its peak, he still felt utterly terrified in the face of this death threat, knowing full well it was beyond what he could endure.

Only at this moment did Long Feiyang fully understand that the true threat to his life was this Auxiliary System.

And the reason the Auxiliary System issued such a fatal threat to him was simply because he wanted to harm Zhou Qingxia.

[Auxiliary System, are you really not lying to me? You really didn't tell Zhou Qingxia my identity and secrets?]

Long Feiyang gritted his teeth, asking with a look of unwillingness, yet still filled with doubts and worries.

Auxiliary System: [Please rest assured, Host. This sub-system will absolutely not harm the Host. As long as the Host does not become a the malicious one, this sub-system will not reveal secrets, nor will it harm the Host in the slightest.]

Long Feiyang naturally valued his life. He stared intently at Zhou Qingxia, who was struggling to breathe, her face turning purple from lack of air.

Finally, he let out a helpless sigh, deciding to temporarily trust the Auxiliary System, and slowly retracted his psychic power.

"Hoo... hoo..." Zhou Qingxia felt the invisible force binding her instantly dissipate, and she could finally breathe freely again, so she gasped for air in large gulps.

It was a while before she gradually calmed down, her eyes still holding traces of fear as she watched Long Feiyang warily.

Auxiliary System: [Host, your words caused him to misunderstand, thinking that this system had revealed all his secrets, which is why he harbored murderous intent. Please do not excessively probe his identity and secrets. That high-level item can only be purchased by someone he truly approves of.]

Zhou Qingxia was speechless. She had almost died simply because she asked about a high-level item she shouldn't have.

And the near-death experience she had just gone through caused the fear in her heart to spread wildly like weeds, infinitely amplified.

Long Feiyang stared at Zhou Qingxia for a long time before slowly speaking: "Apologies. I thought the Auxiliary System had exposed my secrets. Anyone who poses a threat to me and my family has no reason to exist in this world."

There was no hint of sincerity in his apology; it sounded more like a warning to Zhou Qingxia not to try and pry into his privacy and identity.

Seeing Zhou Qingxia still looking at him in terror, not daring to speak, Long Feiyang couldn't help but feel a little helpless.

"I have the item you just asked about. This is a Super Gene Potion. One dose can double all basic human attributes, including lifespan. However, the side effect is that food intake will also double. This Super Gene Potion can be used once every ten days, and each time it can double basic human attributes, with no upper limit on usage."

As he spoke, Long Feiyang no longer concealed it.

If Zhou Qingxia knew, it must have been the Auxiliary System that told her.

Long Feiyang took out a Super Gene Potion from the Super Warehouse and dangled it in front of Zhou Qingxia, trying to tempt her while explaining the serum's effects in detail.

Hearing Long Feiyang's words and seeing the Super Gene Potion appear out of thin air in his hand, Zhou Qingxia couldn't help but show a look of longing in her eyes.

She knew that many of her uncles desperately needed this serum. If they could inject multiple doses, they would no longer have to worry about health issues in the future.

"Although the Auxiliary System chose you, I don't trust it. To purchase the Super Gene Potion, you must become an official spokesperson. This Super Gene Potion weighs 200 grams per dose, and its price is 20 tons of steel."

Long Feiyang urgently needed steel, as it could not only be used to build his basement but was also one of the key main materials for many pieces of equipment.

Therefore, most of his sold items were priced in steel.

Take the pure steel basement, for example. Its advantages were high strength and good seismic performance, while its disadvantages were poor corrosion resistance and fire resistance.

But as long as high-grade C140 concrete and fireproof and waterproof materials were used for the inner and outer layers, the constructed basement would be absolutely safe.

"20 tons of steel for one dose?"

Zhou Qingxia truly hadn't expected the price to be so exorbitant, and she also had to become an official member to purchase it.

At this moment, the calls of Large Cuckoo Birds came from outside.

Long Feiyang then remembered that he had assigned a task to the Cuckoo flock last night, asking them to deliver books of sold items. They must have arrived by now.

If Red Queen hadn't notified him this morning to meet Zhou Qingxia, perhaps it would have been better to just have the Large Cuckoo Birds deliver the books directly, and all these troubles wouldn't have arisen.

Long Feiyang's figure flickered, and he flew directly, openly displaying his ability in front of Zhou Qingxia, then turned invisible and passed through the wall, receiving the books from the bird flock.

Zhou Qingxia's eyes widened. Witnessing Long Feiyang use his Superpower, her heart was once again shocked.

At this moment, Long Feiyang had become unfathomable in her eyes.

Under Long Feiyang's command, the Large Cuckoo Birds quickly turned and flew away.

Now, he no longer cared about the emotional value attracted by the Large Cuckoo Birds.

Long Feiyang returned to Zhou Qingxia's bedroom, placed the books on the table, and then deactivated his Superpower.

"Ms. Zhou, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave. If you have any transaction intentions, you can have Red Queen relay them to me."

Long Feiyang only wanted to leave this troublesome place as soon as possible.

"Wait." How could Zhou Qingxia let Long Feiyang leave just like that? The price hadn't been discussed yet.

She was tasked by her uncle and had to complete it.

"Sir, how should I address you?" Zhou Qingxia asked cautiously.

Fearing to anger the person in front of her again.

Long Feiyang frowned. Why was she still asking for his name?

He thought he had made it clear enough that there was absolutely no room for negotiation on the price.

This Zhou Qingxia was merely the second temporary spokesperson he had found.

Long Feiyang turned back impatiently, saying in an unkind tone: "If you have something to say, say it quickly. Don't ask for my name. From now on, just call me Leader. If you're unwilling, then our cooperation ends here."

At this moment, Long Feiyang was already agitated by numerous matters.

Initially, he believed Zhou Qingxia would be a crucial spokesperson for the organization, capable of facilitating many collaborations in the future, but he hadn't expected so many mishaps to occur one after another, and his patience had been completely worn thin.

With the previous spokesperson, after communicating with the higher-ups, the supervisor sent was suspected of being an enemy agent, so he had no choice but to temporarily put that aside.

And this newly found spokesperson not only failed to help but also caused him a lot of trouble, even putting him in the crisis of being threatened by the Auxiliary System.

Long Feiyang was in a terrible mood. At this moment, he only wanted to resolve the problems as quickly as possible and didn't want to get entangled here any longer.
