The Missing Soul, I'm Sorry

"Take a seat first."

Chen Xinghe spoke before anyone else.

Chen Wudao said nothing and silently sat down.

Chen Xinghe drew a deep breath, then said, "All right, everyone is here now, so I won't beat around the bush."

"I called you here mainly to tell you what I found in my investigation."

"First, regarding the Artificial Destiny Plan, this base and everyone connected to it are gone. I handled it myself."

"But that doesn't mean it has been completely stamped out. This plan will probably be brought up again before long."

"Of course, nothing similar will happen again in the short term."

"Second, the group targeting Little Wen came from the Nine Nether Heavenly Prison Hall."

"Other than the Chen Clan traitors, who have all been cleared out, I cannot guarantee whether any Nine Nether Heavenly Prison Hall members still remain."

"I tracked down many places during this period and wiped out everyone I could."

"Even if some survived, they will not emerge again in the short term."

As he spoke, Chen Xinghe changed the subject. "Third, and most importantly."

"Little Wen has been watched by these people ever since he was born."

"What exactly they wanted from Little Wen remains a mystery to this day."

"I tried investigating from that angle, but found nothing."

"This time, apart from clearing out the traitors, we set this trap to deal with those targeting Little Wen at the root."

"But regrettably, the way they handled matters was more rigorous than we had imagined."

"That is the current situation. If you have any questions, you may ask them."

At the end, Chen Xinghe let out a quiet sigh.

To him, this plan had not been a complete success.

As for why those people had targeted Chen Wen, that had not been uncovered.
