Words : 1879 Updated : Oct 11th, 2025

It was mid-October. Chen Chuan, being in Mo Tie Mountain Mansion, didn't call home for safety reasons. Instead, he had Gao Ming send a Telegram to his family. During this time, he took two more doses of medicine, and Essence Blood Steady Spirit was accumulating every day. Without external interference, it was equivalent to a closed-door cultivation session. Apart from some necessary defense work, he only needed to focus on his cultivation most of the time, especially since he could clearly feel the progress after each dose. He enjoyed this process very much. In recent days, the Meng family and the Company had been making frequent moves. Yan Yi dismissed this, believing that they were simply trying to put pressure on Meng Shu to disrupt her. The more anxious Meng Huang was, the less they should be. Chen Chuan also had sources from the Processing Bureau, and it was clear that they were being very cautious. The Processing Bureau had recently discovered many new moves by the Ferris Wheel Corporation, which had diverted a lot of attention. From this, it could be judged that the other side was about to make a move, and they needed to be extra careful in the next few days. Just then, a siren suddenly sounded outside, and hurried footsteps were heard. The security guards in the Mansion quickly rushed to their positions. For some time, the Mansion had been repeatedly rehearsing the defense plan provided by the Processing Bureau. Occasionally, he would go down to cooperate during activities, allowing the security personnel to visually perceive things. However, with one-third of the defense personnel missing, many corners of such a large Mansion could not be fully covered. They had to leave these areas to the Bio-weapons. The main personnel were only concentrated around the main house, not expecting to eliminate many enemies, but only to protect themselves and delay them. While the exercise was in progress, a truck drove up the road at the foot of the mountain. Because the Mansion had a large number of people, it purchased a batch of ingredients and daily necessities every month. For safety reasons, these were purchased through the Mo Tie Mountain agent Company. At this time, a small airship flew over from afar. Whenever foreign vehicles or vehicles not registered in advance passed through the Mo Tie Mountain area, these airships would approach, especially Meng Shu's Mansion, which had raised its alert level, attracting their attention. The truck stopped in front of the Mansion, and the accompanying personnel got out to unload the goods. At this time, in the front seat, the tall guy, wearing a staff uniform, was looking out at the situation inside the Mansion through one-way glass. However, he found that the Mansion was shielded in every direction, and there were trees in the distance. He couldn't see much from the car at all. After unloading, the truck closed its doors and drove away under the gaze of the security guards. As the driver drove back, he looked at the road ahead and said, "Received the message. The Mansion has been conducting frequent exercises recently, and the defense is very strict. There was a strange move last month, bringing in a wanted criminal. I don't know what the purpose is, but it should be handed over to that Martial Artist." "A wanted criminal?" The tall guy felt that the situation was a bit strange. Why send a wanted criminal in at this time? He suddenly thought of a possibility, but felt that he might be overthinking it. If it was handed over to that Martial Artist, then it should be used to satisfy Martial Combat Cultivation or vent his anger. This deduction was very reasonable, because all... Inside the Mansion, specialized personnel checked the ingredients and daily necessities, and after finding no problems, they found someone to move them inside. Chen Chuan came out at this time, glanced at it, and said, "Put the things down first, open them and let me take a look." Upon hearing this, most of the security guards immediately retreated, looking for cover, and sent up two people to open the items one by one with the pale-faced internal transport personnel. After Yan Yi noticed the situation, she immediately came down from the mountain in an internal vehicle. She boldly approached and took a few more glances before asking, "Mr. Chen, is there a problem?" Chen Chuan said, "It's not certain yet, but I don't recommend you eat or use this batch of goods." He always felt that there was something wrong with it, but he couldn't say what it was, but he was willing to trust his feelings this time. Yan Yi trusted his judgment very much and immediately used the Boundary Token to have the Mo Tie Mountain agent Company send another batch of goods over, and asked, "Mr. Chen, what should be done with this batch of goods?" Chen Chuan said, "Wait a moment." He turned around and came to a secluded place, first contacting Wu Bei. After connecting, he said, "Little Brother Wu, can you build a single-person platform?" Wu Bei said, "Then, in addition to the Resonance Nest, you also need some unique Field Entities. Although I have spares, it can only last for five minutes at most." Chen Chuan said, "Five minutes is enough." Wu Bei immediately said, "Wait for me for a while." After a while, he sent a message, "Okay, who does Little Brother Chen want to contact?" Chen Chuan immediately sent a contact and address over, "Is this person, can you help me build a separate line?" Wu Bei looked at it and said, "No problem." He seemed to be fiddling with something. After a while, he sent a temporary platform login password and said, "Okay, Little Brother Chen, you can contact the other side." Chen Chuan logged in and contacted the contact person. The other side quickly connected. After the routine greetings, he stated his purpose: "I want to know some information... It's like this..." He asked what he wanted to know, and the other side did not disappoint him, giving him a response immediately. After listening, he said, "I may need to ask some more questions here. If there are any supplements, I hope you can contact me by Radio." The other side said yes, and after confirming the Radio frequency, the call ended. At this time, Wu Bei sent another message: "Little Brother Chen, I didn't have time to tell you just now, but I intercepted a piece of information before and after the truck's entry and exit. There was also the same frequency when the goods were delivered last month. Although I can't analyze the specific content, I can be sure that it was sent from inside the Mansion." Chen Chuan said, "I understand." He walked back and said to Yan Yi, "These things can be buried on the spot." After he explained, before Yan Yi could speak, the staff and security guards acted together and moved the things to the side. Yan Yi felt Chen Chuan's prestige among these people, but she was happy to see it, because only such a strong leader could make everyone obey when danger came. On the other side, after the truck left the Mo Tie Mountain area, the tall guy learned through the Boundary Token that the Mansion had ordered another batch of the same supplies, and couldn't help but be a little surprised, "So cautious..." Those things did have some tricks they had arranged, but the things inside themselves were fine. Instead, another thing would be used to trigger them when they made their move. And the conditions currently available on the mountain could not detect it. The relevant personnel on the other side asked, "Brother Sheng, should we rearrange it over there?" The tall guy said, "Forget it." Those things cost a lot of money. If they can distinguish it once, who knows if they can distinguish it... After explaining this, he contacted the team there. After a while, he connected and said, "Boss, that Martial Artist is really not simple. I suspect he has extremely high sensitivity, which matches his possession of certain energy field Skills. He is particularly sensitive to foreign objects and abrupt things in the outside world. For such people, as long as they are willing to stare, it is almost impossible for us to tamper with food and other daily necessities. I suggest not spending any more time on these things... Boss, the employer is already urging us, and we have roughly done the preliminary work that I should do. I think we might as well, okay, I'll come over immediately..." While the security guards were waiting to deal with those things in the Mansion, Chen Chuan said to Yan Yi, "At least one of your three Resonators is a mole." Yan Yi didn't seem surprised, but said with some regret, "These highly skilled Resonators are difficult to recruit. Losing one is a loss." Chen Chuan said, "Assistant Yan, you should have a way to find them out?" Yan Yi said, "I'll take care of it. Oh, I also want to tell Mr. Chen that the things you asked others to send, and the people we needed this month, have also been brought, and have been delivered to Mr. Chen's villa." Although she didn't know what Chen Chuan wanted a wanted criminal for every month, she wouldn't ask more since Chen Chuan didn't say. After Chen Chuan had all the things buried, he returned to the residential area. A person was lying in front of the door, with a package next to him. He scanned it with the Boundary Token and saw more than a dozen criminal entries pop up, confirming the identity of the wanted criminal, and then picked him up and brought him inside. This person had been injected with sleeping drugs and had not woken up yet. He didn't need this person to wake up either. He took this person and the package to the living room, put the person down, and took out the Lynx Stone Tablet from his pocket and threw it on this person. After a while, the wanted criminal convulsed violently. After about ten minutes, he finally stopped shaking, but at this moment, he had become an empty shell. Sёarᴄh the nôvel_Fire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Chen Chuan bent down and took the stone tablet over. Although he was very confident in himself, he still had to be cautious when dealing with enemies. Naturally, he would use anything that could be used additionally. The people coming from the other side should be more than one person, and with the lynx monster, he could at least cripple one combat power first. Even if he couldn't kill him, he could seriously injure him, and there was no way he could recover in a short time. As for that package... He walked to the side and opened it. It was full of Secret Ritual materials that Old Qi had bought for him.
