When Zhao Fangxu heard that his old friend had fallen ill at such a critical time, he couldn't help but feel a sense of shared sorrow: "Old friend, we might really be in trouble this time. The higher-ups have given a death order. If we can't solve this, the survival of super powered beings might become even more difficult in the future."
Xu Xiang said with a hint of indifference: "Old Zhao, that's impossible. If it's as you say, wouldn't that just be sending super powered beings to Lan Luo? Even we don't know what Lan Luo is trying to do, and the only thing we know is that he wants people. Converting ordinary people into super powered beings without affecting their normal lives is a big move. We're getting old."
"What did the doctor say on your end? And what about Xu San and Xu Si?" Zhao Fangxu was now concerned about his old comrade-in-arms. As for the rest, he could only deal with them step by step. There was nothing he could do if they couldn't be resolved.
"San'er and Si'er are currently with Bao Bao, following Lan Luo's clone. They want to find Lan Luo's main body through this," Xu Xiang said, not knowing what to do. Before, they always found clues when dealing with enemies, but with Lan Luo, they couldn't even find the person. All their methods were like hitting cotton.
Zhao Fangxu then asked: "Did you all make a move on Lan Luo's clone?"
Xu Xiang then said: "Yes, his clone just stood there and let us hit him. We used every method we had, but not even a scratch appeared on him. Bao Bao's sword even broke. I estimate that even his clone's material might far exceed the current world's technology. That clone said without concealment that he would disappear if he sustained even a slight injury. Damn it, we couldn't even break a bit of his skin. It's truly frustrating."
Meanwhile, Lan Luo had gained another person, Lü Liang, the traitor of the Lü family. From his appearance, this shy boy wearing a green jacket, with a bowl cut and glasses, no one would have thought he would join Quan Xing. But often, things are just that unbelievable. Sometimes, official history might be wilder than unofficial history.
Lan Luo looked at Lü Liang with interest. When he controlled the Quan Xing Three Evils before, he had given orders that as soon as Lü Liang was seen, he was to be brought over. He didn't expect it to happen so quickly.
"Lü Liang, I can protect you, but you also need to provide corresponding value." Lan Luo didn't have a strong liking or disliking for Lü Liang. After all, he could provide him with the divine skill of Both Complete Hands. If he possessed this skill, he could alter people's genes without going through Daji.
Lü Liang's eyes behind his glasses flickered, and he respectfully said: "What do you need?" He also knew that the only thing about him that Lan Luo might value right now was the Soul-Guiding Art.
Through Observation Haki and passive Legilimency, Lan Luo also knew what he was thinking: "You guessed correctly, but you haven't mastered the Red Hand yet. The Blue Hand alone is useless. Your family's Soul-Guiding Art also has another name, 'Both Complete Hands'. Your sister was even more talented than you. Don't you think there's a possibility that because your sister awakened Both Complete Hands, that old mad dog didn't want the world to know, as it would attract the covetousness of other families and Quan Xing? The best way to deal with it would be to kill her, ensuring the Lü family's long-term peace. Don't you think there's such a possibility?"
Upon hearing this, Lü Liang clenched his fists tightly, his fingernails piercing his skin without him feeling it. In his heart, he had already believed it. After all, both he and the people of Lü Village understood their old grand-master's ruthlessness.
Seeing Lü Liang's reaction, Lan Luo continued: "You are still too weak. You should know that even Ruimuying, who possessed Both Complete Hands, was captured by your grand-master. Although I don't know what happened, it can be seen that since then, your family has possessed the Soul-Guiding Art, which indicates one of two situations. One is forced breeding, which is the most likely possibility, as such a thing, which can be passed down through bloodlines, is not unheard of in The Realm of Extraordinary People. The other is that Ruimuying changed the genes of everyone in your family, which is the least likely possibility. After all, you don't even know who your great-grandmother is now, am I wrong about that?"
Lü Liang then recalled why the Lü family had never mentioned any news of their great-grandmother. If Lan Luo's analysis was correct, it was indeed so. If he now wanted power to avenge his sister, the best option was to rely on Lan Luo. After all, he now knew that Lan Luo was the one controlling the Quan Xing Three Evils, and when he stood before Lan Luo, he couldn't even muster any thoughts of resistance. Instead, he felt a sudden increase in goodwill, which reminded him of Xia He. If Xia He was just a celebrity in the eyes of ordinary people, then in The Realm of Extraordinary People, Xia He was someone not to be provoked.
Not long after Quan Xing made a move against Lan Luo, the Quan Xing Three Evils gained no benefits. Others might not know, but how could he not? He was tricked into coming here by those three guys.
Thinking of this, Lü Liang lowered his head and said: "I am willing to follow you. As long as you give me the power to get revenge, everything I have can be given to you."
Lan Luo nodded at his attitude and continued: "Don't worry, I don't intend to control you. I just want to study Both Complete Hands. But you haven't awakened the Blue Hand yet. Do you need my help with Advancement? The process will be very despairing and painful."
Lü Liang heard the malice in his words, but thinking that he still had value to Lan Luo, he decided to grit his teeth and take a gamble after weighing his options. Anyway, if he continued at his current cultivation speed, it would be almost impossible to get revenge while the old grand-master was still alive. If he won this gamble, he might not necessarily soar to great heights, but his strength would definitely increase significantly, after all, this was one of the Eight Unique Skills.
"I've decided to take a gamble, and I also trust you. I will definitely not disappoint you," Lü Liang said very seriously at this time.
Lan Luo was noncommittal, taking out a ring and tossing it to Lü Liang: "Wear it. After signing the dark contract, I can help you awaken Both Complete Hands."
As Lü Liang put on the ring, Lan Luo guided him for a few minutes, and he successfully signed the dark contract. Lan Luo was very satisfied with this.
Lan Luo took out a vial of Extremis Virus from the ring and directly injected it into Lü Liang's body. Lü Liang did not resist, because he knew that Lan Luo would not abandon him, and he also needed a complete Both Complete Hands.
The Extremis Virus was incredibly compatible with the current Lü Liang. Before long, Lü Liang recovered to his normal state from the ashes of his burnt clothing, and his myopia was also repaired by the Extremis Virus, making him no different from an ordinary person.
