My Ironclad System is ahead of schedule.

"You are truly a genius!"

"I don't deserve that."

Ji Yuan quickly waved his hand.

He wasn't used to being called a genius, especially since he knew he had nothing to do with being a genius.

“If only your temper were as big as your abilities.” Black Tower was very dissatisfied with Ji Yuan’s current temper. She looked at Ruan Mei and said, “If I were in your situation, I would definitely kick Ruan Mei’s butt hard and question her about whether I have any talent or not.”

Yes, absolutely.

Nguyen Mai then opened her eyes and answered.

She looked at Ji Yuan, then immediately grabbed the experimental materials. Soon, all the experimental materials Ji Yuan had written down appeared in her hands. Ruan Mei picked up the materials and began to prepare the experiment.

With an extremely focused expression, Ji Yuan felt that if he were to actually give Ruan Mei a slap on the butt at this moment, Ruan Mei wouldn't react at all.

Suppressing this desire in his heart, Ji Yuan watched Ruan Mei's actions.

At first, Ruan Mei was very calm and composed, slowly adding the ingredients, but later her speed gradually increased. Ji Yuan even noticed that Ruan Mei's movements created afterimages, making it impossible to see her actions clearly.

Finally, a burst of white smoke exploded, engulfing Nguyen Mai's figure.

After a while, a new transparent sphere appeared in her hand. If it weren't for the slight vibration, Ji Yuan would have thought it was a ball filled with water.

"This is the new creature you conceived. The proportions of your formula perfectly solve the problems I haven't been able to fully understand before: the continuation of life and its growth potential. Previously, I only gave creatures certain characteristics before nurturing them, and even if they developed on their own, it was in a predetermined direction, with not much room for change."

As she said this, Ruan Mei poked the new life: "This newly created creature of yours can perfectly absorb the characteristics of all given items and expand its abilities through fusion."

She then picked up a piece of flame and threw it into the newborn's body, which swallowed it. It immediately began to roll around, escaping Nguyen Mai's grasp and tumbling several times on the ground. After rolling several times, a tube appeared above its head, spewing fire from it.

Black Tower raised an eyebrow slightly.

“Its potential for growth has given my previously stalled experiments a chance to take a step forward.” Ruan Mei grabbed Ji Yuan’s hand, not wanting to let go of him at all.

An experiment that has stalled?

Upon hearing Ruan Mei's words, Ji Yuan immediately thought of her important achievement a century later.

To replace the Star God in creating messengers.

At this moment, Hei Ta shared the same thought as Ji Yuan. She asked Ruan Mei, "Has your plan to cultivate the Envoy made progress in the new life he conceived?"

“Yes.” Nguyen Mai nodded directly.

“All my previous experiments failed. The new life forms were unable to withstand the power of the Envoy and all died. But this new life form has given me a new idea for cultivating life's resilience. I can continue my research along this path and take the experiment a big step forward.”

Her tone was calm, but her speaking speed increased. At the same time, Ji Yuan could clearly feel her grip on his hand tightening. Ji Yuan even felt a slight pain in his hand.

Ji Yuan clearly understood the fervor beneath her calm exterior and the madness beneath her composure.

The formulas she presented were all developed by Ruan Mei after successfully cultivating the messenger, and every part contained Ruan Mei's successful experience. Now, seeing the formulas she had developed after her success, some parts that she didn't understand instantly became clear.

"May I learn from you now?"

Ji Yuan questioned Ruan Mei again.

"of course."

Ruan Mei released Ji Yuan's hand and stroked him carefully, as if touching a fine piece of porcelain.

"Ji Yuan, I will pass on all the knowledge I have to you. From now on, you will be my only student. I hope that one day you can obtain the opportunity to meet with the Venerable Master Bo Shi and become a full member of our Genius Club."

She nodded seriously, finally acknowledging Ji Yuan's status as her student.

"Yes, you are the first life science expert who can benefit Nguyen Mai."

Ji Yuan was overjoyed when he heard Ruan Mei and Heita say this.

This is a member of the genius club, and now he's going to be my teacher.

If he stays close to Nguyen Mai, will his life be spared?

After shutting down communication with the Black Tower, Nguyen Mai took Ji Yuan's hand again and walked out of the ship.

Once outside, Ruan Mei said to Ji Yuan:

"Let's go see your leader."

"Ms. Ruan Mei, is there something you need?"

Ji Yuan asked Ruan Mei about her purpose in doing so.

“Of course I told him I was taking you with me,” Ruan Mei said to him. “The sooner your talent shows, the better. I’ve been looking forward to having someone to communicate with in the field of life sciences. I plan to take you with me to the Black Tower space station, and I will teach you my knowledge as soon as possible.”

Take yourself away!?

Ji Yuan thought about Ruan Mei's identity and couldn't help but feel anticipation.

If she were to protect me, even if Huanlong attacked me, I would be able to escape.

Just as they were thinking this, they heard a plaintive voice not far from them.

"Ji Yuan, are you planning to abandon your lover's sister?"

Ji Yuan looked over and discovered that the one who said these words was actually Huanlong, who was impersonating Tingyun.

When Ji Yuan saw Huanlong appear here, he couldn't help but take two steps back.

His expression was unnatural, making it look like a scene of someone being caught cheating.

Chapter 69 Help me, Miss Ruan Mei! [First update 3k words]

Ji Yuan's hand was held in Ruan Mei's hand, and Huanlong's expression was full of resentment. In her heart, however, she was already getting annoyed.

She personally selected her prey, showered him with so many benefits, and now this woman, Ruan Mei, has taken him away?

Huanlong's expression was terrifying.

Ji Yuan felt a chill creeping up from his very bones.

He originally planned to take advantage of Ruan Mei's attempt to leave with him to escape. As long as he could reach the Black Tower Space Station with Ruan Mei, and with the two great gods of Black Tower and Ruan Mei there, he would have no fear of Huanlong.

We'll find another opportunity to inform the General later.

Ji Yuan believed that the Black Tower possessed the ability to communicate with General Jing Yuan privately without being discovered by the people of the 'Secret Medicine King's Manual' around him. In that case, as long as Lord Jing Yuan took action, Ji Yuan believed that this matter would have the safest outcome.

As for the fact that he would receive less reward for spending less time with Huanlong, such a loss is far less than the safety of Ji Yuan.

But now that Huanlong has caught him red-handed, escaping will be very difficult.

Especially her words; to most people, her tone sounded like a lover about to be abandoned, reluctant to let go. But to Ji Yuan, who knew her true situation, Huanlong's words were a warning not to even think about running away.

He looked at Nguyen Mai.

Can you defeat Huanlong?

Ji Yuan thought about it for a moment and realized that this matter was not easy. Putting aside whether Ruan Mei was a Wisdom Envoy or not, even if Ruan Mei was a Wisdom Envoy, her combat power was far inferior to that of a Destruction Envoy.

How can a scientist fight against a militant faction?

Upon hearing Huanlong's words, Ruan Mei stopped and asked her, "What is your relationship with him?"

Huanlong said nothing, but simply came to Ji Yuan's side, put down her folding fan, and reached out to take his other hand, which was not being held by Ruan Mei. An extremely strong force surged from her slender wrist, making Ji Yuan feel that he couldn't break free at all.

The presence of two people, each with one hand, put immense pressure on Ji Yuan.

Putting aside the mental pressure, the sheer physical pressure alone made Ji Yuan feel like he might be torn to pieces.

This is not a battlefield of carnage, but an execution ground.

“I understand.” Ruan Mei nodded gently, indicating that she understood, as she watched Huanlong’s movements.

She looked at Ji Yuan and said, "For people like us, physical desires are too low-level, and I don't really understand them. But if you like, I can help you."

As she spoke, she carefully examined Ji Yuan.

Huanlong picked up the folding fan he had just put down again.

You're not planning to do it yourself, are you?

Members of the Genius Club are capable of doing anything, no matter how outrageous.

Huanlong glanced at Ruan Mei; her temperament was gentle and graceful, her lips slightly parted, and her words carried the fragrance of orchids. Even if she tried her best, she couldn't achieve the same mature charm as Tingyun.

Ji Yuan is also a foot fetishist, and Ruan Mei's legs and feet are very beautiful.

Influenced by Ji Yuan, Huanlong also began to scrutinize people's legs and feet when looking at them.

Ji Yuan shared the same thought as Huan Long, and looked at Ruan Mei with some surprise.

she……

Before she could think further, Ruan Mei carefully examined Ji Yuan and asked, "What kind of body type do you like? What race? What other organs would you like to have added?"

"what are you up to!?"

Ji Yuan and Huan Long asked Ruan Mei in unison.

"Of course I'll make one for you. What's wrong? Do you have a problem? Do you want to make one yourself? No problem."

Nguyen Mai looked at the two men with a puzzled expression, seemingly wondering why they were looking at her like that.

If you have this desire, isn't it normal to then cultivate a new creature to satisfy that desire?

Ji Yuan swallowed hard, feeling that the difference in thinking between him and a mad scientist like Ruan Mei was too great.

"Let's forget about that, Ms. Ruan Mei, let's talk about something else."

Ji Yuan quickly waved his hand.

Nguyen Mai gave him a strange look.

This Ji Yuan is quite strange.

Huanlong stepped forward, shielding Ji Yuan behind him, and said to Ruan Mei, "Ms. Ruan Mei, this is the difference between you and Ji Yuan. A simple scientist can never understand the feelings of a normal person. Ji Yuan, besides simple lust, also has human emotions. If he follows you, he will lose these emotions sooner or later."

As she said this, she glanced at Ji Yuan and gave him a stern and righteous look.

You can't become the kind of person who only knows how to conduct scientific research.

Ji Yuan silently recited in his heart:

"That's well said, but you're Huanlong. I really don't want to be a mad scientist, but I don't want to die even more!"

So he looked at Huanlong seriously and said, "Well, it's not a big deal for me to study with Teacher Ruan Mei for a while."
