t, with a rising inflection that was utterly captivating.A feather-light sensation brushed against her heart, making Mu Xing's heart skip a beat. Her bright eyes stared at the man for a moment before...Fu Lingxiao's eyes were icy cold, and in the next instant, he pulled the trigger directly.

A bullet shot through the air, skimming past the researcher's temple before embedding itself deep in the wall behind him.

Researchers were instantly paralyzed with fear.

"Half a month, if there is no progress, the next bullet will be in your heads!"

Fu Lingxiao's voice was cold and harsh, his eyes and eyebrows filled with a sinister ruthlessness. The aura of an absolute controller made people tremble in fear.

Several researchers turned pale and trembled, "Yes, yes, we will do our best!"

Fu Lingxiao holstered his gun and strode out of the conference room.

Yun Tuo followed behind.

The car was already waiting at the institute's gate. As soon as they got in, the driver started the engine immediately.

In the passenger seat, Yun Tuo was a little uneasy.

After a moment's hesitation, he turned his head to look at the man in the back seat who was closing his eyes and resting, "Master Fu, shouldn't we bring some people with us"

During this time, he used all his connections to find the divine doctor of the Thirteen Realms. He couldn't even find a lead, not even a single clue, until a few days ago, when someone claiming to be Mr. Y suddenly contacted him, saying that he could provide clues about the divine doctor of the Thirteen Realms, but he had to meet with his grandfather Fu in person.

He looked up Mr. Y, but found nothing at all.

The other party's identity and purpose are unknown, even the clue about the divine doctor may not be true. If this is a trap, only he and Master Fu going would be quite risky.

The man merely raised his thin lips and said faintly, "No need."

One hour later, the car stopped at a remote port.

A small luxury cruise ship docked at the shore. On deck, a shapely woman stood with flowing black hair like waves. Her red strapless dress swayed in the wind, as alluring and fiery as it was graceful.

Her oversized sunglasses nearly covered half her face, with only her fiery red lips standing out.

Behind her stood two men in black suits, each holding an assault rifle.

When Fu Lingxiao arrived, the woman stepped off the cruise ship in high heels.

Walking up to Fu Lingxiao, the eyes hidden behind the sunglasses sized him up. Her red lips parted slightly, "Mr. Fu, please board the ship. My master has been waiting for you."

Fu Lingxiao strode past her, stepping onto the gangplank.

Yun Tuo was about to follow, but the woman's hand suddenly raised, a slender, white finger gently resting on his chest. "I'm sorry, my husband only saw Mr. Fu alone."

"Grandpa Fu."

Yuntuo was a little worried.

The man didn't even turn around, only a cold voice drifted on the wind: "Wait for me here."

The woman's red lips curled up slightly, "Be good and wait here."

His tone was soft and gentle, like coaxing a puppy. As he spoke, his finger lightly tapped on Yun Tuo's chest.

Every move she made oozed with allure.

Yuntuo inexplicably felt a sense of being teased. His stern face suddenly turned cold, he blocked the woman's finger, "Please be respectful!"

A woman let out a soft gasp, leaving behind a seductive smile. She turned and boarded the cruise ship as well, "Mr. Fu, please follow me."

A woman led Fu Lingxiao to the door of a cabin, pushed it open, and made an inviting gesture.

Fu Lingxiao strode inside.

In a luxurious ocean-view suite, a somewhat thin man sat in a chair by the floor-to-ceiling window, resting his chin on one hand and gazing out. The light and shadow cast his profile into a handsome outline.

Hearing the footsteps, he slowly turned around.

It was an extremely three-dimensional mixed-race face, possessing both the characteristic black pupils, skin color, and hair color of Eastern people, as well as the high cheekbones and deep eye sockets unique to Westerners.

Her eyelashes were thick and long, her eyes deep and alluring, with a hint of melancholy.

He slightly raised his face and met the other person's gaze: "Mr. Fu, it's a pleasure to finally meet you."

Fu Lingxiao stood still, keeping a distance. "Let's skip the pleasantries. I'm here for the lead on the Thirteen Realms Divine Physician. Just state your conditions."

"Mr. Fu is certainly quick-witted, but perhaps we should sit down and talk Standing there puts me under a lot of pressure."

A man's voice, laced with amusement, pushed a cup of coffee across the table.

Fu Lingxiao frowned slightly, then sat down in the chair opposite him, "Go on."

The man spoke in a low voice: "I've always been interested in the Asian market, and Mr. Fu, you've been expanding into several other continents over the years. We could cooperate."

"I believe that together, we can create a business empire that will revolutionize the times. As long as Mr. Fu agrees to cooperate, I will give Mr. Fu the clues to the Thirteen Realms Divine Physician as a gift for the meeting."

A table separated the two men. Fu Lingxiao pursed his lips and glared at the man across from him. After a moment, he curled his lips into a sneer: "Cooperation can be discussed, but you, you're not qualified to talk to me."

A hint of surprise flashed across the man's eyes, his dark eyes narrowed slightly. This man was indeed no ordinary person!

Fu Lingxiao ignored his gaze. His hand rested on the armrest, his thumb lightly playing with his index finger, and he said slowly: "How long are you planning to stand at the door Mr. Y. Oh, no, should I say Ms. Y"

The next second, a chuckle accompanied by high heels came, "Mr. Fu is indeed as rumored."

The man who had been sitting steadily by the floor-to-ceiling window immediately got up and moved aside.

A woman walked gracefully into the room and sat across from Fu Lingxiao. She took out a box of ladies' cigarettes from the drawer, selected one, tucked it between her crimson-painted fingers, lit it, leaned back in her chair and took a puff. "I am very pleased with Mr. Fu," she said. "Now, let's discuss our cooperation."

I don't need your satisfaction. If you want to work with me, you should bring capital that satisfies me.

Fu Lingxiao leaned back, his hands resting on the armrests, his long legs crossed, giving off a domineering aura that turned the unfamiliar place into his own.

He is such a domineering man.

The woman chuckled softly, taking off her sunglasses to reveal her entire face. Her skin was blindingly white, her features exquisitely defined and three-dimensional, and her red lips were seductively full.

My name is Li Huiyi.

She gazed at Fu Lingxiao languidly, her azure eyes like those of a noble Persian cat, radiating a deadly allure.

Most men probably couldn't even stand one look from her.

Fu Lingxiao's expression was indifferent, "Li Huiyi, the founder of Y&C Group, swept across most of Europe in just one year and successfully entered the top ten in the world."

Li Huì's eyebrow arched slightly, "I didn't expect Mr. Fu to know me so well. Then, Mr. Fu, are you satisfied with me"

Fu Lingxiao stared at her, "I'm more interested in the power behind you."

Li Huìyī curled her lips into a smile, "Mr. Fu, you have quite the appetite."

"You're not small either."

……

Two hours later.

Fu Lingxiao walked out of the cabin, Li Huiyi walking by his side, having put on her sunglasses again.

Under the cruise ship, Yun Tuo saw his master Fu emerge safe and sound. The two hours of worry etched between his brows finally relaxed, leaving a furrow in their middle.

"Grandpa Fu, are you alright"

He hurried towards her.

Fu Lingxiao let out a faint "hmm" in acknowledgment, then strode toward the car.

"Mr. Fu, take your time, and you too, Mr. Assistant, goodbye!"

A soft, smiling voice came.

Yun Tuo turned his head slightly and caught a glimpse of a seductive figure leaning against the railing on the deck, in a crimson dress that was alluringly captivating.

Two words popped into his head instantly: fairies! them with a cane. Despite being over fifty, he looked quite young.After many years, Fu Lingxiao still recognized that voice. He lowered his head slightly, "Second Uncle."Fu Zheng's face was stern and...
