Professor Luo Hui restricted communication at the Old Age Mansion, and he even considered whether to wander around the Qinmeng Ruins for two years to avoid disaster.

He did all this simply because he was afraid of Luo Tianming.

Destroying Luo Zhong's head was a major event, something that Luo Tianming might consider a good-for-nothing.

Professor Luo Hui didn't want to speculate on how furious Luo Tianming would be when faced with the situation, or how he would target him. He had already made many calculations in his mind.

But no matter how Professor Luo Hui planned, one thing he had to consider was how long Luo Tianming could live.

Three years, five years, ten years, or even longer.

His decision to flee was the worst possible course of action. Professor Luo Hui could not afford to spend such a long time abroad, and he could not escape Luo Tianming's search within China.

Ultimately, he ended up delaying the process as much as possible.

Professor Luo Hui just didn't expect Luo Tianming to come out so quickly; he hadn't even received the news.

The poor network environment in the Twilight Mansion area limited Luo Tianming and others' contact with the outside world, but it also prevented the transmission of relevant information from the Twilight Mansion.

As long as he meets the requirements, Luo Tianming, who voluntarily enters the Old Age Mansion, has the authority to leave.

Professor Luo Hui only learned of the news when Luo Tianming arrived near the Shengteng Academy in his flying vehicle.

In such a short time, how could he avoid Luo Tianming? He could only bite the bullet and deal with Luo Tianming.

"Dad!"

Professor Luo Hui forced a smile and shouted the first words at Luo Tianming, but he felt utterly terrible inside.

Seeing Luo Tianming's piercing gaze, Professor Luo Hui knew he had been exposed.

If it weren't for the fact that the people accompanying him involved Chang Kong Yinghao and Chang Kong Yinglian, he felt that Luo Tianming would have slapped him twice and then made him kneel down and confess everything.

The laboratory at the Shengteng Academy was searched again, even subjected to a rather destructive search.

Hundreds of technicians were involved in the continuous search and retrieval of every location, including searching for documents, examining collections, and looking for hidden architectural designs.

Professor Luo Hui looked at the wreckage scattered on the ground, including his specimens accumulated over many years, which had been severely damaged during the search, and his heart bled.

He vaguely felt that Luo Tianming was not searching for Luo Zhong, but for something else, but Luo Zhong's problems would be discovered sooner or later.

"I..."

He wanted to ask Chang Kong Yinghao and Chang Kong Yinglian, but seeing their unfriendly looks, Professor Luo Hui felt it would be pointless to ask.

He wisely kept quiet and could only wait for the destructive search to end.

"The residences have already been searched; only the A9 laboratory remains!"

After searching for a while, Luo Tianming, who was leading the team, became more and more anxious.

His eyes flashed with a fierce light as he swept over Professor Luo Hui.

Professor Luo Hui felt uneasy, and Luo Tianming also had a terrible feeling.

"You've grown quite bold in just a few years," Luo Tianming sneered.

This statement left Professor Luo Hui speechless.

Luo Tianming's opening remarks proved that he was no longer trusted. If he had no usable value, his fate would not be much better than Luo Burang's.

"Where is the thing?" Luo Tianming asked.

I don't know what you're talking about.

Professor Luo Hui's face darkened, and his heart sank.

Since taking on the treatment of Ren Yisheng, Professor Luo Hui felt that he hadn't had a single good day, with a series of problems constantly erupting.

"Give me the potion, and I'll give you everything!" Luo Tianming gritted his teeth and whispered, "This isn't something you can handle alone!"

"The Heavenly God's potion... I've never seen it before, how do I get it?" Professor Luo Hui asked in astonishment.

"You've seen them, you've seen those sixteen potions," Luo Tianming whispered in his ear, "Don't even think about swallowing the Heavenly General Potion. This thing has a usage plan; without that plan, you'll die no matter how you use it. You won't be that one in a hundred lucky ones!"

Sixteen branches?

Luo Tianming's reminder made Professor Luo Hui's expression equally unpleasant.

Few have seen the Heavenly General's Elixir, and even fewer know of it.

Even Professor Luo Hui only learned at this moment that the sixteen potions belonged to the Heavenly God Generals.

"I didn't do this kind of thing; I only found out about it today," Professor Luo Hui said. "Instead of questioning me, you'd be better off questioning Ren Yisheng about whether he kept even a single bit of the goods!"

"His house was burned down by Wang Jiangtao, leaving only an empty house and the Jishi Medical Center that he took over later!"

He even owns a building at the Canglan Academy!

"We already searched the room during the time he Qi Deviation and lost his temper; there was nothing there!"

Professor Luo Hui suggested a target to draw attention away from Ren Yisheng, but Luo Tianming repeatedly rejected the suggestion, clearly indicating that he had no intention of targeting Ren Yisheng.

Given Ren Yisheng's unfortunate fate, it's clear the other party had nothing to exploit.

His gaze was now focused more on Professor Luo Hui.

In addition to inspecting the laboratories at the Shengteng Academy, Luo Tianming also inspected the Xiaotangshan Sanatorium, Professor Luo Hui's private residence, Luo Gaogao's housing, and the A9 laboratory.

No matter how Professor Luo Hui tried to conceal it, the experimental equipment could not have been turned into a small box, and there must have been some finished products that could be searched.

If Luo Tianming becomes suspicious, he will definitely investigate thoroughly.

Seeing that Professor Luo Hui was unmoved by reason, Luo Tianming also made calls, ordering people to search for him at all costs.

"Go to the A9 laboratory in North Rehe!"

What needs to be sealed should be sealed, and what needs to be thoroughly investigated should be thoroughly investigated.

Luo Tianming knew Luo Hui all too well; if Luo Hui wanted to hide, he would hide it very well.

If it weren't for the constraints of the rules of the old mansion, he would have already interrogated the suspects, but for now, he could only suppress his temper and conduct the search.

The search of the Shengteng Academy's laboratories yielded no results, and much still needed to be organized. Luo Tianming then quickly changed his search target.

"Luo Hui, oh Luo Hui..."

Chang Kongyinghao, who followed, let out a sigh.

"If we had started researching this a few decades earlier, it wouldn't have been a problem for our Scarlet Alliance State to suppress the Aomeijia Alliance and those people from other provinces and cities," Chang Kong Yinglian couldn't help but mutter in complaint.

"You two, I really didn't do anything!"

Professor Luo Hui offered a rebuttal, but after being invited by the two, he had no choice but to follow the aircraft bound for North Rehe.

The procedure was very similar to that used to search for the Shengteng Academy; many technical staff used brute-force searches.

All relevant documents will be sealed and examined separately, while instruments will be disassembled, and searches will also be conducted in hidden compartments of buildings.

Professor Luo Hui's eyelids twitched repeatedly as he read this.

The A9 lab was not the same lab he had at the Shengteng Academy. He remembered that Luo Burang had mentioned that explosives had been planted there as a means of countermeasures.

Luo Tianming abandoned his training of Luo Burang and also abandoned the worthless North Rehe Laboratory, and hasn't been here for more than ten years.

Professor Luo Hui pondered the matter repeatedly, also preparing himself mentally.

His gaze inadvertently swept over Chang Kong Yinghao and Chang Kong Yinglian before finally looking away.

There's a hidden compartment here!

The technicians' excited voices rang out. Luo Tianming stepped forward to check, followed by Chang Kongyinghao and Chang Kongyinglian, while Professor Luo Hui seemed to be heading away.

He pretended to be helpless, and then took a few steps back, looking somewhat embarrassed as if he had been exposed.

When Luo Tianming let out a cold laugh, Chang Kong Yinghao let out an ambiguous snort, followed by Chang Kong Yinglian's urging.

"It's open!"

The excited voices of the technicians could be heard again, and Professor Luo Hui's retreat had turned into a sprint.

He had only walked a few dozen steps when he saw the long-lived old white rat making anxious noises. This made him completely disregard the surprised looks of others and turn his walk into a run.

"It's explosives! Forcibly dismantling it triggered a reaction in the device. Get out of here!"

As Luo Tianming's loud shout reached their ears, Professor Luo Hui had already stepped into the entrance of the underground laboratory.

He heard a muffled, loud explosion, followed by a burst of intense flames that shot into the sky and engulfed everything in its path.

His body rose like wisps of smoke as Professor Luo Hui flew out of the A9 laboratory to find cover.

As he looked back, he saw that the above-ground part of the A9 laboratory building had completely collapsed, and the shockwave and flames from the explosion continued to spread in all directions.

"I'd be severely injured, if not killed, in such an explosion!"

He looked down with lingering fear and saw a naked body, covered in blood and skeletal, flying out of the ruins of the A9 laboratory.

"Luo Tianming... he's seriously injured!"

Upon seeing the figure clearly, a crazy thought flashed through Professor Luo Hui's mind.

"Luo Tianming has entered his twilight years!"

Amidst the roar of the explosion, Professor Luo Hui let out a wild cry as several steel needles were clamped into his palm, facing directly at his adoptive father who held the power of his life and death in his hands.
