ZZ City, Xingrui Building.

Lin Lun finished his day's work, leaning back in his office chair, looking at the money transferred to his WeChat account with a satisfied stretch.

He took out fresh, blood-red internal organs from a tempered insulated bucket, then lifted the cloth covering the shrine and placed fresh beef organs into individual Goohelms.

"Eat more, grow fat, Daddy loves you."

Seeing the flesh in the Goohelms rapidly shrivel, Lin Lun felt deeply content.

Ever since he brought back three Kuman Thongs from Thailand, his business had improved significantly.

Yes, he was a Sorcerer. Although it harmed his karma, it brought in money quickly. Before he was 30, he already had a car, a house, and a wife.

Through his Qi senses, he knew not to feed them too much, so he closed the door and headed towards the underground garage.

He hadn't walked a few steps when Lin Lun stopped. The little ghosts beside him seemed to have detected someone; there was an undisguised killing intent.

"Who's there? Come out~"

"A Southeast Asian Sorcerer? What a fine prey, hahaha, become my nourishment!"

From the darkness, a man with a crazed look suddenly lunged out, his entire body enveloped in purple Qi.

"You're... Hu Jie from Dongxiang Village! You, don't come any closer, Ya Ya, Xiao Hong, attack~"

Seeing that persuasion was useless, Lin Lun suddenly had a bad premonition. Was this the end of him?

He heard that a disciple from the Shenxiao Sect had died just two days ago. Was it his turn today?

No, he couldn't die. He had just gotten married and had a wonderful life ahead of him to enjoy.

Black Qi emanated from his body, and two shadowy figures flew out with a rustling sound, their cold laughter echoing in the underground garage.

In the blink of an eye, the two ghosts lunged forward, entangling themselves around Hu Jie.

The ghost figures tore, bit, and scratched at Hu Jie, leaving bloody wounds.

But in the next moment, they were blasted away by the erupting purple Qi, and a palm strike landed on Lin Lun's throat.

"Crack~"

"I've gotten stronger, I really have! Xia He~ Xia He~ wait for me, I will definitely help you get the Heaven Communicating Talisman Art! Ahahaha~"

Hu Jie greedily absorbed the Qi from Lin Lun's body, roaring madly. His scarlet eyes were filled with excitement, devoid of any humanity.

"Whoosh~ Sizzle~"

Suddenly, several black whips shot out from the shadows.

"Hmm? Someone else! Ah, what, what is this thing, ahhh~ Get off me~ No!"

Tentacle-like appendages, resembling oily substances, surged from the sewer. They not only bound the dead Lin Lun but also pierced the frenzied Hu Jie, dragging him into the depths below.

Wang Changle walked out from the stairwell, staring at the pools of black, oily substance left on the ground. The air was filled with the smell of petroleum and decay. It was the Formless Child!

Startled, he quickly took out a scroll. Light flowed, and a distorted, oily form appeared before him, emitting a strong, foul odor.

The calf-high Formless Child writhed and mutated in the air, letting out inexplicable shrieks of excitement.

Wang Changle had received a message from Nato Tong stating that Otherworldly Persons were being continuously assassinated near Zaozhuang. He knew it was Hu Jie being controlled by Quanxing's Shen Chong and Xia He.

For Contractors, killing plot characters meant substantial rewards. Hu Jie was undoubtedly the best target for him to become stronger.

However, he had just arrived and witnessed the scene. His prey had been taken by another prey. This was a double surprise!

The one who took Hu Jie was the Formless Child, a dark creature that worshipped Sathogua. Its entire body was composed of a twisted, black, oily substance, looking almost identical to "Venom."

It could change into various forms, flow through tiny cracks, and parasitize most objects and creatures, especially favoring dark, gloomy underground areas.

Not only did it possess extreme malleability, but it was also completely immune to physical attacks, which was why Hu Jie couldn't harm it.

The Formless Child possessed the "Formless Child Contact Technique." As long as other Formless Children were nearby, this ability would automatically connect them, and this was his best means of tracking them in reverse.

After installing a tracking device on the summoned Formless Child, it darted into the sewer.

In his car, Wang Changle stared intently at the tablet computer in his hand, tracking the movement trajectory of the signal transmitter.

Finally, the signal transmitter stopped at Tianxin Nursing Center in Sakura Garden, in the far northern outskirts of the city.

Looking at the location on the map, he began to retrieve relevant information. This was the advantage of joining a major force – a comprehensive intelligence network.

Soon, information came through his internal information channels.

Sakura Garden was once a prosperous residential area, a very popular villa district at the time. It was surrounded by forests and backed by mountains and rivers.

Tianxin Nursing Center was the central area of the vast villa complex and was a gathering place for socialites back then.

Of course, that was all in the past. After the Medicine Immortal Cult's downfall more than a decade ago, it was revealed that Tianxin Nursing Center had also been part of the transactions. The place was completely abandoned then.

And precisely because it was abandoned, it became the best hiding place.

After browsing through photos covered in lush greenery, his fingers unconsciously tapped on the car seat.

Outside the car window, a light rain began to fall, and the locating signal on the tablet continued to flash red, like a ticking time bomb counting down.

Tianxia Group, reception hall.

"You're saying Mr. Ode applied for a heavy-duty truck and also wants to take a large quantity of potent anesthetic needles?"

Feng Shayan turned her head and looked at Yuan'er (Clawed Woman), who had come to report. Her eyes held a hint of surprise and uncertainty as she took the application form that was handed to her.

"Yes, Young Miss. Also, Mr. Ode took a large amount of Realgar, Saltpeter, and Flake Gold."

Yuan'er stared at the form. The dosage was enough to anesthetize a herd of elephants, and she couldn't help but wonder if he was planning to attack Quanxing.

"Realgar, Saltpeter, Flake Gold? Okay, I understand. Approve it for him, charge it to the company account. You prepare the report, and I'll sign off on it."

After speaking, Feng Shayan put on her leather jacket and walked to the break room, sending a WeChat message.

"Beep boop~"

"I need an explanation!"

"If it goes smoothly, I'll refine another Magic Tool for you."

Far away in Zibo, Wang Changle was directing his fellow villagers as they loaded fat pigs onto heavy-duty trucks. After replying to the WeChat message, he drove towards Zaozhuang.

"What a good person! 30,000 yuan per pig, what a great person!"

"Yeah, if you want to get rich, you've got to raise more pigs!"

Meanwhile, Feng Shayan leaned against the bar with a shallow smile after receiving the reply. She tightened the boxing gloves in her hands, a flicker of excitement in her eyes.

"A second Magic Tool, then I'll be looking forward to it!"

After murmuring softly, she entered the training room again. She heard that Feng Baobao was also participating this time.

Perfect, she wanted to test the true power of these new gloves!
