After entering the elevator, Lin Huang scanned the ID card, then verified his fingerprints and irises of both eyes . The elevator descended to the second floor .
He was relieved to have passed through all the verification processes .
Approximately ten seconds later, the elevator arrived at the second underground floor . Lin Huang then walked out of it .
Following the memory of the man in the glasses, Lin Huang walked towards the observation room where Chan Dou was captured .
He bumped into a few men in white coats along the way . Lin Huang followed the man in the glasses' habit whereby he ignored them directly .
He saw an old man with gray hair and two middle-aged men working on something as he walked into the observation room .
"Sir," Lin Huang greeted the old man and turned his head to look at the room behind the observation glass .
There was a naked, muscular man who had all his limbs bound by black shackles in the room . Even his neck was locked .
There were all sorts of wounds on his body . He had clearly gone through inhumane torment .

There was a black monster that looked like mud stuck on his shaved head . It seemed to be hurting him, causing him to struggle and groan .
Lin Huang's eyes turned bitter upon seeing Chan Dou's devastating state .
"Why did you come today?" Wang Lao's voice echoed behind Lin Huang . He sounded pretty surprised .
"The new toxin lab report is out . I went to your office earlier, but you weren't there, so I figured you should be here . " Lin Huang swiveled around while smiling . "How is it so far? Is there any progress?"
"It's progressing really slowly . The god item in his body is very powerful and has been protecting his consciousness, preventing him from collapsing . I've been getting the Rotten Soul Beast to insert all sorts of spiritual toxins into his body . However, with that god item, the corroded part of his soul has been regenerating each day .
"But I heard the new spiritual toxin that you guys have developed has a pretty astounding effect . I'll take a look at the report later and see if I can add it in . "
"I'll send you the report," Lin Huang responded and walked to Wang Lao while grinning .
Bloody stretched a tentacle from Lin Huang's sleeve all of a sudden when he stood still before the old man . It turned into a pile of gooey mess stuck on his face directly . It sealed his mouth and nose, stopping him from releasing any sound .
Wang Lao stood at an angle where his back was facing the two other people in the lab . He blocked Bloody's action completely, so the two researchers who were not cultivators did not notice anything off at all .
After casting a parasite on Wang Lao, Lin Huang walked past him and headed toward the two people in the lab .

He patted their shoulders while smiling . "Thanks for your hard work . "
Almost at the same time, Bloody stretched its tentacle again and completed the parasitization .
The reason Bloody used close-range parasitization instead of Leech Pods was that Leech Pods could be detected within the territory of powerhouses above imperial-level . To prevent their identities from being exposed, Bloody could only perform close-range parasitization which was slightly more troublesome .
The parasitized Wang Lao opened the door to the room where Chan Dou was captured under Bloody's control . Lin Huang followed behind him .
Almost at the same time that the duo walked into the room, the Rotten Soul Beast extended its tentacles toward the both of them . However, it was immediately swallowed by the Undead Styx that Lin Huang had summoned .
Lin Huang removed the shackles on Chan Dou's body and took a blanket out from his storage space to cover his body up . He then got the Ninetails Lynx to send him into its alternate dimension .
The Rotten Soul Beast was dead, but the remnants of the spiritual toxin in Chan Dou's body did not vanish right away . It would take time for it to get out of his system, so Chan Dou would be unconscious for a while .
A voice came out of nowhere just when Lin Huang sent Chan Dou into the alternate dimension .
"I thought some rat came to our base . I didn't know it's someone so important!"

Lin Huang did not expect to be exposed, but he was not entirely surprised . The person must have done something to Chan Dou and found out that something was off as soon as Chan Dou disappeared . Lin Huang did a quick check on himself with his Divine Telekinesis and found that his disguise was perfectly fine .
Two silhouettes soon appeared not far away from him .
One of them had a muscular body with a stiff expression and a strong aura . The other looked sullen with an unfathomable aura .
Lin Huang soon found out about the duo's identity through Grandmistress Wei's memories .
The muscular one was called Gao Ming while the sullen one was called Qi Shihan . The duo had a combat strength of Virtual God rank-3 which was even more powerful than Grandmistress Wei .
"If I'm not mistaken, you should be the Emperor Dynasty, aren't you?" Qi Shihan's tone sounded like he was taunting Lin Huang . "Why are you here in my Blessing Trading Company in the middle of the night?"
"Ah, it's great that you recognize me . I can save time introducing myself . " Lin Huang had to stall since Guan Zhong had yet to come back to him . Clearly, he was not done building the energy shield .
"Did you ask why I'm here in the Blessing Trading Company in the middle of the night? I didn't want to come, but it was your staff who invited me here . I saw a store in the business district earlier, and I wanted to go in . There was a guy in the alley next to the store who told me that he's your staff and that I could get 30% off on the elixir if I buy it from him . He even enthusiastically invited me to visit your production line . In the end, he brought me underground after the visit was done . Someone even attacked me, so I killed the person . I couldn't find the exit for a long time and ended up on this floor for some reason . "
"It seems like both of you are the Blessing Trading Company leaders . You guys should know how do I get out of this horrible place . Am I right?"
The duo looked dumbfounded after being mocked by Lin Huang . They finally found out how he had sneaked in, and they also knew that he was playing dumb .
"He's stalling . He might have partners," Gao Ming spoke through a voice transmission, "His partners might have blended in with the staff, so it'll take time for us to check one by one . "
"Lock the place down to prevent them from escaping . I'll bring him up to lure his partners out! His identity is rather sensitive . We must kill everyone who came with him . Spare nobody's lives!" Qi Shihan replied through voice transmission .
The voice transmission ended with them merely locking eyes .
Gao Ming disappeared right away while Qi Shihan forced a smile . "I see . Let me send you out, Master Emperor . " Qi Shihan brought Lin Huang to the elevator as he spoke .
With plans of their own, Qi Shihan and Lin Huang remained silent in the elevator . None of them spoke again .
Lin Huang's Emperor's Heart Ring vibrated all of a sudden when the elevator arrived on the first floor and they walked out .
It was a message from Guan Zhong whom he just added into his contact list . There were only two words in the message: 'It's done!'
Next to him, Qi Shihan peeped at the screen . He did not understand what the two words meant . However, he had a bad omen upon seeing the smirk on Lin Huang's lips .
At that moment, Lin Huang turned around and looked at him . He smirked . "Your Master God asked me to send his regards . He wants to tell you that he's doing great down there, but he's lacking two strong men to serve him . "
