The Law of Heaven
Chapter 79 Ruan Qi Joins the Team
Chapter 79 Ruan Qi Joins the Team
Chairman Ruan approved the draft at the meeting and launched the company's ten combat units.
The hunters in the battle order are all of the Rotation Rank, and only a very few special ability users can be selected despite not being of a high enough rank. Xiao Li is a prime example of this.
"Chairman."
Ruan Yang asked, "At this time, is it really necessary to mobilize so many combat forces to search for members of the Bliss Society?"
Chairman Ruan hummed in agreement and said softly, "Not long ago, Youqing sent me a message. She found some clues and reminded me. For some time now, we've been focusing our energy on Wushan, which has actually been a mistake."
Ruan Yang frowned slightly: "Miss Jiang hasn't returned?"
Chairman Ruan chuckled self-deprecatingly and said calmly, "Youqing is too smart. She probably found out some dirty secrets about the company and doesn't believe me anymore, right?"
Ruan Yang was silent for a moment, then said in a low voice, "You have borne too many sins that you should not have borne. I think that as your only and most outstanding student, she will eventually understand you."
Chairman Ruan shook his head.
"I reckon that the child is probably hiding from someone. Ever since her initial assassination plan failed, she has become extremely cautious... Who do you think the mole in these five families could be?"
These people have been friends for so many years, they've killed people together, committed crimes together, done evil together, and gone through hardships together... How could this happen?
Human nature is truly unpredictable, and the world is ever-changing.
Chairman Ruan stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the city night view outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, his eyes somewhat dazed.
"If you find the mole, will you take action?"
Ruan Yang suddenly asked.
"of course."
Chairman Ruan's cane hummed slightly.
"But your hands..."
Ruan Yang hesitated.
Chairman Ruan said indifferently, "The despair poison of a mere tyrant is not worthy of exchanging my hand. Once the truth comes to light, I will cut it off myself."
Ruan Yang was taken aback: "You didn't use...?"
Chairman Ruan waved his hand: "Don't panic, this is what I should do. Just as the owner of Misty Tower said, I did make the wrong choice back then."
Everyone thinks I favor Xiang Tian, but little do they know I simply didn't want Wang Hu to be tainted by the family's sins. I excluded him from the core of power, which ironically fostered his withdrawn and eccentric personality. I entrusted Xiang Tian with important responsibilities, but neglected his psychological issues, leading to a grave mistake.
Now, every time I think of those two innocent children, my heart aches terribly. According to the owner of the Misty Tower, this is an unsolvable situation; if my death can quell all this greed and hatred, then it will be worthwhile.
Ruan Yang bowed slightly: "Understood."
Chairman Ruan glanced at him: "Keep a close eye on your brother lately, don't let him do anything reckless. His Perfection Technique is extremely special, but the risks of cultivating it are too great. I know very well that with his talent, it's impossible for it to be corrupted; it can only be a problem with his own cultivation."
The reason the Blissful Assembly sought out Wanghu back then was most likely because of his Perfection Technique. Speaking of which, did Wanghu pass on the Tenfold Delusion to anyone else?
Ruan Yang denied it, saying, "Of course not."
Chairman Ruan waved his hand.
Ruan Yang stepped down and left the conference room.
In the empty corridor, Zhou Yin, with his white hair behind his back, stood at the door and sighed, "Is there something wrong with the old chairman's right hand? With her strong personality, she certainly wouldn't tell anyone."
Ruan Yang was taken aback: "You're still here?"
Zhou Yin thought for a moment and instructed, "A-Yang, come to my house later. The longevity tree I planted in my yard has already borne fruit. Please collect the fruit and take it to the old chairman. It can help her alleviate the toxins."
As for the remaining branches and leaves, have them ground into powder and sent to the children in the combat ranks. They are seriously injured and need to recover quickly to avoid any lasting damage.
Ruan Yang was quite surprised and hurriedly said, "That was something that saved your life, are you just going to give it away like this?"
The immortal tree is an extremely precious living organism that can only be planted in soil. It takes thirty years for it to flower and bear fruit, and it is said to have the power to revive the dead and heal the wounded.
The actual effect wasn't as dramatic, but it was indeed a rare and invaluable life-saving medicine.
“Young people are the future; this old body of mine is no longer useful. Oh, right, I have a favor to ask… Could you help me get Jian Mo into the combat ranks? I’m planning to pass on my Perfection Technique to him.”
Zhou Yin said embarrassedly, "He is my successor."
Ruan Yang nodded slightly: "Okay."
Zhou Yin suddenly remembered something and continued, "By the way, the Yan family has been acting strangely lately and needs close attention. Jiang Hai used his connections to get the little boy his daughter was raising into the combat ranks. I think he's Xiang Chaonan's son, and I heard he performed quite well in combat yesterday."
Ruan Yang knew about this, of course. That kid's talent was indeed exceptionally outstanding, especially in the area of dating rich women.
It's only been a few days.
He's about to take over the Jiang family.
"Old Yan was quite dissatisfied with this matter. I think you also know what happened to their family back then. At that time, Old Yan's daughter was madly in love with that charlatan and even wanted to break off her engagement with Professor Li from the Central Academy of Buddhism. Later, Old Yan personally intervened and severed this ill-fated relationship. But who would have thought that after Old Yan's daughter got married and had children, she went into the mountains to cultivate Buddhism, which infuriated the man."
Zhou Yin cautioned, "Ever since Xiang Chaonan's nephew came to the company, the Yan family has been targeting him behind the scenes. They never expected to shoot themselves in the foot. Yan Feng is still not out, and Yan He is in solitary confinement."
Ruan Yang was silent for a moment, then said, "I understand."
It's absurd that that old incident has dragged on for so long.
However, according to Fu Wanghu, there must be other reasons behind this, not just hatred.
He turned and left.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Ruan Yang arrived downstairs, someone else was standing there waiting for him, which made him feel a little suffocated.
"General Manager Ruan."
Yan Chengwu sat on the sofa with a cold face, glancing at him: "A newcomer with no experience has jumped directly into the combat sequence. Isn't that against the rules?"
Our Yan family has many talented people waiting to be selected, so why is this person allowed to skip the line? Moreover, he is Xiang Chaonan's nephew. That charlatan died in Wushan, and who knows if it has anything to do with the Shi family.
"Isn't what Director Jiang is doing a bit excessive?"
Just as Ruan Yang was about to say something, the elevator doors next to him opened, and someone carrying a briefcase quickly walked out.
"Aihara is in the tenth combat rank, and if he doesn't make the designated contributions, he'll be kicked out. Similarly, if you think he's not worthy of being in the combat rank, just find someone to publicly challenge him."
Jiang Hai pushed up his glasses expressionlessly: "If you have any opinions in the future, you can tell me in person."
Yan Chengwu, seeing this scene, seemed to have been prepared all along, and sneered, "I was just waiting for you to say that."
Jiang Hai narrowed his eyes slightly: "Oh?"
Ruan Yang turned around as if he had noticed something.
Someone was making coffee at the bar in the lobby.
She was a girl with short chestnut hair and a face that was both alluring and wild. The way she licked her lips had an indescribable bloodthirsty quality to it. She was petite yet voluptuous, like a lithe female leopard.
She looked like she had just come from the gym, wearing a black tank top and shorts, her skin glistening with sweat.
Ruan Yang recognized the person.
Yan Yan.
The adopted daughter of the Yan family, who was once favored by the former chairman, went to the Middle East for training a few years ago and has recently returned to China.
The genius who is about to advance to the next level possesses the Perfect Technique called the Firecracker, and is quite powerful.
"They came prepared..."

Aihara scattered a handful of copper coins, carefully interpreting the divination results, and becoming increasingly amazed by the wonder of Xia Ji's divination.
Because the guidance shown in the divination was exactly the same as the information he had received.
The information he obtained allowed him to interpret the divination in greater detail and with greater credibility.
"First of all, I must tell you that any algorithm in this world needs to know your basic information. What makes Xia Ji divination special is that it does not need your birth date and time, but it can deduce your past and future through information and changes in circumstances."
He cleared his throat: "I don't know who the white-robed cultists you saw were, but your and your brother's tragedy is clearly related to a massacre that happened in this city more than ten years ago. The divination shows that you were born into disaster."
The culprit behind that disaster was an ancient organization called the Bliss Society, which also includes the five major families that now control the Deep Blue Alliance. Xiao Qi, your genetic defect is different from others. Haven't you noticed that the other test subjects lost their self-awareness after undergoing the modifications? Their bodies developed a different kind of consciousness during the evolutionary process, erasing their original selves.
But you are different.
Ruan Qi's pupils contracted, and her hand holding the teacup trembled involuntarily, something she had never realized before.
But thinking about it carefully, what the boss said was true.
The presence of those people felt very off to her.
It's very incongruous.
"Xiao Qi, why are you so special?"
Aihara threw out another handful of copper coins.
The copper coins bounced on the table.
The complex patterns were arranged.
"This is related to your background."
Aihara took out paper and pen and spent about ten minutes drawing a sketch. This was something that Xiaosi had dragged him to learn a long time ago, and he had learned it quite well.
A simple sketch, yet it depicts the attic of the Donghai Road Sanatorium and the man in the eco-cell.
Especially the physical characteristics of men.
The original artwork depicts a man as a monster.
Do you know this person?
He paused for a moment: "He has similar white hair to you, and the degree of physical mutation is also extremely similar."
A tremendous fear exploded in Ruan Qi's mind, like a frightened cat with its fur standing on end, its face as pale as if it had lost its soul: "Who is this person..."
Aihara placed the sketch in front of her and said calmly, "This person's name is Ruan Xiangtian, the previous director of Deep Blue Union. Actually, when I first met you, I had a feeling of déjà vu. Your background is extremely mysterious and complicated, very special."
He continued, feigning profundity, "But you didn't ask about your background back then, so it wasn't convenient for me to say much. But now, if you want to know who the mastermind behind the Shi family is, and if you want to resolve the issues between you and your brother, then you can only trace back to the root of everything."
Next, I'm going to tell you a story.
Boom.
It's raining outside the window.
Aihara's whispers were muffled in the rain.
Lightning flashed intermittently, faintly illuminating Ruan Qi's bloodless face. She listened to the story in silence, like a lost soul who had lost her body.
She had already drunk all the tea in the teacup.
She crushed the cup.
It was ground into powder.
Memories from over a decade ago surfaced in my mind: the brother and sister's turbulent life, their time as orphans living under the roof of others, and their struggle to survive while suffering from illness...
Deep Blue Alliance.
The Pure Land Assembly.
Fog Mountain.
Shi family.
Those people, those conspiracies, those secrets.
It was intertwined in her mind.
Ultimately, it all comes together to form a bloody scene.
A gust of wind blew in through the window, carrying with it a light drizzle.
It's cold.
She felt an unprecedented sense of bewilderment and confusion.
"Many years ago, the former chairman of DeepBlue United came to me for help. More than a decade has passed in the blink of an eye, and fate has led you to me as well."
Aihara scattered copper coins again: "This is destiny."
The copper coin was illuminated by electric light.
The crisp sound of the collision was drowned out by the thunder.
boom!
Aihara's hand fell with the sound of thunder.
He pressed the bouncing coin.
He interpreted this divination very quickly because he had sufficient information to support it, making it simple and easy to understand.
Intelligence can help him interpret the divination results.
The divination results can help him verify the authenticity of the information.
Aihara gradually figured out how to use Xia Jifu's divination.
This is the true power of the Mirage!
If the intelligence and the divination do not match.
That means there's something wrong.
The intelligence and the divination match up.
That means things can move forward!
"Xiao Qi, go find the Paradise Club."
As Aihara interpreted the divination, he looked at the bewildered and helpless girl and said softly, "Only by finding the Paradise Society can we uncover the truth behind all of this."
After a long while, Ruan Qi seemed to wake from a dream, and asked in confusion, "Where should I look for them?"
Aihara smiled slightly: "Last time in Kiriyama, you left one alive, Dr. Toki. Coincidentally, my family is very interested in this matter, and he has a very reliable partner who can follow the clues to dig deeper."
He finally tossed out a copper coin.
In the crisp sound.
The final hexagram was revealed.
Extremely auspicious!
"Xiao Qi, do you want to team up with them?"
Aihara raised a finger, his smile enigmatic and profound.
"The truth is right before our eyes."
Dead silence.
Only torrential rain poured down.
After an unknown amount of time, the bewildered and ignorant girl finally made a choice at the crossroads of fate.
"it is good."
