Looking at this black cipher box, a smile crept onto Lv Zhong’s face. In Lv Zhong’s opinion, the bomb device that Zhou Kaiyuan had set up in this black box could only kill those who were unaware of the box’s secrets. Since Lv Zhong had deduced the secrets of this box, things would be much easier. Looking at the box, Lv Zhong lingered for a moment, then flashed out of the space of the Plague God Pearl, retrieved an ordinary kitchen knife from Zhou Kaiyuan’s villa, and then flashed back into the space of the Plague God Pearl. He channeled his true Qi into the ordinary knife, activated his [Micro-Yin Yang Eye] again, and began to inspect the black cipher box, studying the bomb device and its location. He then started directing the knife across safe areas of the box. The knife, filled with his internal true Qi, became as effective as a divine weapon, cutting through the box with ease. All three notebooks, two pieces of ancient jade, and more than a dozen gold bars within the box were removed. The first thing Lv Zhong did was pick up one of the notebooks and began to peruse them. In essence, these were three account books. One held a record of Zhou Kaiyuan’s bribes, another was an autobiography depicting Zhou Kaiyuan’s rise to power, and the last notebook recorded a number of peculiar phone numbers. The information recorded in the notebooks astounded Lv Zhong. Indeed! This man’s rise to power was full of flaws. Several cases of state-owned enterprise acquisitions were blatant misappropriations of national assets and were rife with shady transactions. Zhou Kaiyuan had even obtained a vast amount of land cheaply, and started dealing in real estate. He used various means to force property owners into selling their land and property at extremely low prices. If they disagreed? It was easy handling! He discreetly asked the security company to commence eviction. Once, a farmer and his wife were actually “accidentally” killed by an excavator on the site. With a meager compensation of 100,000 yuan and a few henchmen thrown into prison as scapegoats, they put an end to the situation. Not only did this terrorize many of the residents, but he also successfully acquired the land… Subsequently, the scale of Zhou Kaiyuan’s corporation continued to expand. Tax evasion was a recurring practice. Shocking Lv Zhong, the sum of this tax evasion was up to 1.5 billion in just these last few years! Deeply inhaling, Lv Zhong closed these notebooks. After examining Zhou Kaiyuan’s record of crimes and misdeeds, Lv Zhong felt stunned and his mental state was nearly affected. “Zhou Kaiyuan, as a societal tumor like you, if I let you go then it would be against all reasoning. With these notebooks, your death is certain!” With a glint of astonishing killing intent in his eyes, Lv Zhong prepared to bring Zhou Kaiyuan and his company down in the shortest time possible. After putting down the notebooks, Lv Zhong picked up a gold bar to weigh it, estimating that each bar weighed roughly 3kg. There were twelve bars in total, equal to 36 kilograms or 36000 grams. Based on the current price of gold, even if it was 400 yuan per gram, it was worth over 14.4 million yuan. The two pieces of ancient jade, however, were unrecognizable to ordinary people. But with the memory of the Plague God Lv Yue, Lv Zhong recognized them. These two pieces of ancient jade were used by cultivators to store information and knowledge, requiring spiritual sense to access. Looking at the ancient jade with some doubt, Lv Zhong contemplated for a moment before attempting to transfer his spiritual sense into one of them. “Boom…” The moment Lv Zhong’s Spiritual Sense touched this ancient jade, a surge of incredibly powerful information was transmitted to Lv Zhong’s mind. Infinite pain oppressed Lv Zhong’s soul, but he persisted through gritted teeth. Approximately three hours later, Lv Zhong finally digested the information stored on the jade. The owner of this jade was a Cultivator called South Hua Old Immortal, in the Divided God Realm during the Han Dynasty in China, who stored it. The information included vast knowledge of medicine, divination, astrology, physiognomy, symbol creation and Taoist skills such as the Beans into Soldiers technique. However, Lv Zhong remembered a lot of these things, and even more advanced ones, so he wasn’t too impressed. But at the end of the information, South Hua Old Immortal had left a baffling map with arrow pointers. It seemed like a treasure map, yet it seemed like it was meant to guide someone to a specific place. Unsure what this guy was planning, Lv Zhong directly used his Spiritual Sense to project onto the second ancient jade, absorbing the information stored on it. To Lv Zhong’s surprise, the second jade had no other information, only the records of a peculiar cultivation technique, which quite astonishingly was the Yu Hua Jue. However, it didn’t match the upper half of the Yu Hua Jue that Lv Zhong had obtained from Mingyu, the throat-cutting man. This [Yu Hua Jue] was not the lower half of that technique but the preamble of [Yu Hua Jue]. Don’t assume that the preamble of a cultivation technique is useless. If even a small preamble is missing, the effect of cultivation can be radically different, and the user might even fall into demonic possession during the cultivation process. “I thought the Yu Hua Jue was divided into upper and lower parts. I didn’t expect there’d be a preamble as well. It seems like once I find the lower part of this Yu Hua Jue, the complete cultivation technique will be assembled!” Lv Zhong reflected as he observed the preamble of the Yu Hua Jue in his Sea of Consciousness. Although Lv Zhong had only just started cultivation, he possessed a remarkable ability to appreciate cultivation techniques, thanks to his memories of the Plague God. Initially, the upper half of the Yu Hua Jue was a decent cultivation method. But now, with the addition of this preamble of the Yu Hua Jue, the rank of this technique has increased by a tier or two. This amazed Lv Zhong. He hadn’t expected such a dual cultivation-type technique to be so potent. If he could get hold of the lower half, a complete version of the Yu Hua Jue would absolutely be a top-tier terrifying cultivation method. “Never mind, why should I care so much? My [Transfer Technique] is also a very potent technique! Besides, this technique is like a [Super Milk Mom], it can help other techniques to cultivate at a terrifying rate!” Lv Zhong smacked his lips and flashed out the Plague Pearl. The moment Lv Zhong stepped outside, he checked the time, it was about four o’clock in the morning. It was almost dawn. Lv Zhong decided not to linger in this Villa and dashed off towards the direction of the school. ************ With these genuinely useful resources, Lv Zhong was still not satisfied. This time, he was determined to thoroughly ruin and play with Zhou Kaiyuan. With the 24/7 surveillance provided by the Soul-Devouring Worm, Lv Zhong was fully aware of Zhou Kaiyuan’s work situation, his after-hours activities. Upon learning that Zhou Kaiyuan was due to visit his company at 10 a.m., Lv Zhong suddenly had an idea. It was only around 8:50 now, at this moment Zhou Kaiyuan was working in his privately-owned office suite. He was sipping on his tea while frowning, finding that his company’s current situation wasn’t promising. Sёarᴄh the NôvelFire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. The termination of cooperation between Hongmei Group and Guanghan Palace Group had put his company in a very dangerous situation. Later, even more companies canceled their cooperation with them, making a bad situation worse! “It seems you’re not doing well either, but I should add fuel to the fire…” Observing Ziho Kaiyuan’s troubled expression in his office through the Soul-Devouring Worm, Lv Zhong sneered to himself. The first class just ended, Lv Zhong left the classroom and ran back to his dorm. He took out a Love-inducing Elixir, preparing to let the Soul-Eating Worm Queen carry it and drop it into Ziho Kaiyuan’s teacup. But upon reflection, he felt that the effects of the Love-inducing Elixir were too strong. If Ziho Kaiyuan had a strong reaction after taking it, people could easily start suspecting him. After carefully considering the strength of the Love-inducing Elixir, Lv Zhong split the pill into three parts, took a third, and instructed the Soul-Devouring Worm to deliver it. The Soul-Devouring Worm Queen was about the size of a thumbnail and had several feet on its abdomen. When it grabbed a third of the Love-inducing Elixir, it didn’t show any signs of strain or danger of dropping it. The Soul-Devouring Worm Queen appeared in Ziho Kaiyuan’s office within a minute. Taking advantage of Ziho Kaiyuan’s momentary inattentiveness, the Soul-Devouring Worm Queen swiftly dropped a third of the Love-inducing Elixir into Ziho Kaiyuan’s teacup. Noticing all this, Lv Zhong laughed, “Hehe, Zhou Kaiyuan, this is my first wave of punishment for you. And you’ll soon know about the second wave…”
