Chapter 1729: Won't Owe You Money

"You don't need to worry, the God Lord will never owe you money."

Tang Xue looked straight ahead and said indifferently, "However, you must guarantee the quality and stability of the supply; only then can we cooperate long-term."

"That is certainly no problem; our goods are guaranteed in both quality and quantity." Zhao Ping, standing to the side, took over the conversation.

"Which one of you is actually in charge?" Diehua frowned, feeling that something was wrong.

Among this group, it was very obvious that Chen Yu was the one in charge, but it was Zhao Ping doing all the talking, which was clearly problematic.

Zhao Ping was also feeling a bit anxious because he could see that Chen Yu's state was not quite right, so he had to step in whenever Chen Yu remained silent.

"I am the one in charge, what of it?" Chen Yu raised his head and looked at Diehua. "Rest assured, as long as the money is sufficient, nothing else is a problem."

"You have problems." Diehua looked at the few of them vigilantly. He finally confirmed his inner thoughts: the people in front of him were definitely problematic.

"That's right, I do have problems. Did you only just realize that?" Chen Yu stared at him and grinned.

"You..." Diehua retreated violently. He subconsciously wanted to get away from Chen Yu, but it was already a step too late.

Chen Yu thrust his hand forward, and Lichen was unleashed. Following a soft shout from him, the Lichen in his hand slid forward, piercing through Diehua's chest with a single strike.

Diehua stared blankly at Chen Yu, his body staggering backward.

He hissed and struggled, attempting to stand up and repair his body, but no matter how hard he tried, the wound on his body only slowly expanded.

"Why is it like this? Why?" Diehua looked at Chen Yu in anger; he felt his life slowly slipping away.

"No reason, I just happen to have a way to restrain you." Chen Yu sneered. "Haven't you realized that you aren't very smart? The God Lord really has no one left if even someone like you can be taken into his service."

"You..." Diehua collapsed to the ground with a thud, roaring in pain.

The muscles of his body bulged high, attempting to repair the massive hole in his chest, but no matter how hard he tried, the hole could not be repaired.

"Don't waste your effort. The regenerative ability forcibly reinforced through gene technology can only guarantee you a few regenerations at most."

Chen Yu sneered, "Now that I have used Primordial Qi to destroy your genes, your regenerative ability can no longer be used."

"Tang Xue... save me. You have the Gene Strengthening Agent in your hand, save me." Diehua turned his head and roared at Tang Xue.

Tang Xue slowly raised her head and walked slowly to Diehua's side.

Looking at the twitching Diehua, she couldn't help but smile slightly. "Alright, I will save you now."

She flipped her right hand, and a Tang saber appeared in her hand. As her hand rose and the blade fell, with a thud, Diehua's massive head rolled onto the ground.

Even as his head rolled onto the ground, he still wore a look of shock and anger.

Because he never imagined that this woman, entrusted with heavy responsibilities by the God Lord, would suddenly strike him down.

"This..." Zhao Ping was completely dumbfounded. He had already prepared himself for a fight, but this move by Tang Xue left him completely unable to understand.

Weren't they on the same side? Why did she suddenly attack her own people? What was the meaning of this?

The chill in Tang Xue's eyes slowly vanished. Her gaze revealed a hint of tenderness as she looked at Chen Yu, a smile appearing on her face.

"Tang Xue, are you alright?" Chen Yu raised his head.

"Why did you only come now? I've waited for you for a long time." Tears welled up in Tang Xue's eyes. She threw herself into Chen Yu's arms, hugging him tightly as tears streamed down her face.

"This works too?" Zhao Ping was stunned. Only then did he understand what was going on; it turned out the two were old acquaintances.

And since they were already embracing, it certainly wasn't as simple as just being acquaintances. He felt great admiration for Chen Yu—to think such a good thing could happen to Mr. Chen?

"Keep watch on the island." Chen Yu turned his head and glanced at Zhao Ping.

"Right, right, I'll go immediately." Zhao Ping gave a cheeky smile, then put on an "I understand" expression as he led a group of people to the side to keep watch.

Tang Xue and Chen Yu went to the seaside, and she talked about her gains over these past days.

Tang Xue had first made contact with the God Lord, and later Chen Yu had persuaded her; in the end, she resolutely returned for the sake of lurking by the God Lord's side.

"He Tiansheng is naturally suspicious; he won't easily trust anyone." Tang Xue sighed leisurely. "He has too many secrets, and he has too many enemies."

"You must have had a hard time these past few days, right?" Chen Yu sighed. Tang Xue had stayed by He Tiansheng's side just to figure out his secrets and, incidentally, to find out where he was.

Every day she faced heavy dangers, because if she were the slightest bit careless, she would be discovered by He Tiansheng, and then she would simply become one of He Tiansheng's many Experimental Subjects in his culture vats.

"Actually, it was alright." Tang Xue smiled and said, "Although he is naturally suspicious, once you gain his trust, he will lower his guard."

"He usually has many research directions, all sorts of things, but what he is most interested in is gene technology." Tang Xue said, "I saw with my own eyes how he used gene technology to save a dying billionaire and make him regain his vitality."

"He has lost his mind." Chen Yu's brows were tightly locked.

These were just the tip of the iceberg; only Heaven knows how cruel the experimental process was.

Moreover, this mode of acting against the natural order is not tolerated by the Heavenly Dao; He Tiansheng really dares to do anything.

"The biological experiments he conducts are truly insane, but there is no help for it. His technology is linked to the interests of some political figures and financial magnates, so many Western countries support him. He is researching immortality in the true sense." Tang Xue said, "So it is not easy to get close to him."

"Then where is he now?" Chen Yu asked.

"I'm not sure, because he has experimental bases all over the world. The base he stays in is different every time, and he never tells anyone his whereabouts. I only knew half a month ago that he was researching in an underwater laboratory in Fusang." Tang Xue sighed. "But that was half a month ago; now, no one knows where he is."

"He is quite afraid of death." Chen Yu sneered. "A person like him knows that he has done all sorts of evil, and sooner or later he will be taken by Heaven, so he is extra careful now."

"Yes, but I received information from the side that he should still be here." Tang Xue said, "I will contact you after I confirm it."

"You killed his people, so there will be danger when you go back." Chen Yu said, "Your mission is already over. Now listen to me and go back immediately."
