Medical and Martial God

Entering the Meditation Room, Ye Xiu glanced at the time, a quarter past four in the afternoon.

”Yuan Wu really helped me a lot. With his commotion, I won’t need to return to the Royal Palace this afternoon or even all night. Initially, I thought it would take three days to break the formation base, but now it will only take two days!”

After locking the door of the Meditation Room, Ye Xiu activated the Earth System Totem and exited the room, first retrieving the hidden Battle Soul Blade, then heading at full speed to the square beneath the ’Transcendent Building’!

”Begin!”

Ye Xiu started to set up a soundproofing formation around the iron-reinforced basement.

Since there weren’t any ready-made formation bases, the setup speed was slow, at least five hours would be needed.

...

As Ye Xiu began setting up the formation.

Lin Lei sat on the sofa in Thousand Mechanism Hall, silently lowering his head like a statue.

The Ministry of Military Affairs big shots and the think tank members were silent as the grave, making the hall so quiet a pin drop could be heard.

”Your Majesty, there is something the old minister must say!”

At this moment, an old man with barely any hair on his head suddenly spoke.

”Lu Guda, can’t you see I’m in a bad mood?”

Lin Lei glanced irritably at the old man, but ultimately said:

”Alright, alright, just say whatever you have to.”

Lu Guda immediately responded: ”The old minister has no grievances with the Lei Family, so he has no prejudice against Lei Xiaoming, but I feel that Lei Xiaoming’s sudden awakening and the series of events following this awakening indeed seem quite odd.”

His words directly addressed Lin Lei’s concerns.

Lin Lei shook off his gloom and said: ”Explain, with more details.”

Seeing His Majesty’s interest, Lu Guda said:

”When Lei Xiaoming was born, he was detected without a cultivation aptitude, did not inherit the Thunder System Totem, a clear waste, and facts proved, he indeed was a waste.”

”But after 20 years, Lei Xiaoming suddenly awakened from a slap by Gongsun Shu, awakening twice in one day, four times in two days. On the surface, he’s a body prone to easy awakening, but Your Majesty, and everyone present, throughout history, no body prone to easy awakening was discovered after being a waste for 20 years...”

Upon hearing this, Lin Lei interrupted:

”You mean to say Lei Xiaoming is not a body prone to easy awakening, but awakened through other means?”

Lu Guda shook his head: ”I did not say that, nor did I mean that. I simply feel Lei Xiaoming’s awakening defies logic.”

Someone couldn’t help but add: ”It’s indeed unreasonable. After awakening, he kept challenging the Zhuge Family, Gongsun Family, and Sha Family, but the elite of these families died at Shen Yin’s hands, leading to suspicions that Shen Yin’s sudden action might have been orchestrated by Lei Xiaoming.”

With this person’s input, the Ministry of Military Affairs big shots and think tank members could no longer hold their tongues.

They started speaking:

”Everyone knows Shen Yin’s character; even His Majesty and the three Judicator Families could not enlist him, but he suddenly slaughtered the elite of the three families. There must be a reason behind this.”

”Lei Xiaoming’s awakening also coincided perfectly with the arrival of the young Princess to the Royal City. After awakening, he became the Princess’s guard, carrying a purpose within the coincidence.”

”The deaths of Yuan Yao, Tong Lu, and the five Fifth Realm War Gods of the Yuan Family also carry oddities.”

”Since Lei Xiaoming already obtained evidence of the Yuan Family’s intention to poison him, and awakened again due to Yuan Yao’s and others’ provocation, he could have subdued them, brought them before His Majesty for judgment. Yet he killed Yuan Yao and the others, making such a racket, brought their bodies to see His Majesty, which inevitably leads to the suspicion that his true intent was to annihilate the Yuan Family.”

”Perhaps it was due to Lei Xiaoming’s inability to suppress the rage and killing intent within him that led him to kill Yuan Yao and the others.”

”Lei Xiaoming spent 20 years as a waste, enduring humiliation. In terms of patience, there’s no one in the Royal City who can compare to him. How could he lose patience over poisoning and leap to kill Yuan Yao and the others.”

Lin Lei quietly listened to everyone’s words, the more he listened, the more suspicious he became of Lei Xiaoming.

Suddenly he stood up, commanded:

”Send a secret order to Tong Bo, have him and the Yuan Family direct a drama of exterminating the Yuan Family entirely, then secretly hide the Yuan Family members in prison. After I uncover why Lei Xiaoming killed Yuan Yao and the others, then decide whether to exterminate the Yuan Family.”

Speaking thus far, Lin Lei’s gaze struck sharply across all present, warning:

”This matter is top-secret. If anyone dares to leak it and let the young Princess know, all informed will die!”

Saying this, he hurriedly left the Thousand Mechanism Hall, had the guards bring the car, stuffed Yuan Yao’s body into the trunk, said:

”Take the secret tunnel, go to the Transcendent Laboratory!”

...

Ye Xiu was setting up the formation when he suddenly received a text message from You Ming:

”Young master, Lin Lei has started to suspect you. I sent you the recording from inside Thousand Mechanism Hall.”

The next moment, Ye Xiu received a recording.

Actually, the first time Ye Xiu visited Thousand Mechanism Hall, he had stealthily planted a bug inside.

After listening to the recording.

Ye Xiu’s face turned extremely grim:

”Seems like I underestimated the people inside Thousand Mechanism Hall. I acted with utmost caution, yet somehow they spotted a flaw.”

”But what method will Lin Lei use to uncover the purpose behind my killings of Yuan Yao and the others?”

”Directly interrogate me? He wouldn’t dare, nor does he have such authority, so what method would he use?”

Ye Xiu couldn’t figure it out, but he realized his identity was at the brink of exposure.

”I must destroy the formation base of the Shocking God and Demon Formation before Lin Lei finds a clue. At that time, the entire Royal City will be under my feet;”

”But if Lin Lei discovers a clue and activates the Shocking God and Demon Formation, I’ll have no choice but to flee the Royal City, leaving the outcome of this war uncertain.”

Ye Xiu put away his phone, proceeded with the formation setup at full speed!

He was racing against time with Lin Lei!

...

The guard drove Lin Lei and Yuan Yao’s corpse through the secret tunnel at full speed to the ’Transcendent Laboratory’ beneath the Transcendent Building!

The Transcendent Laboratory was like a 200-story high building buried underground in the Transcendent Building, but very few knew of its existence.

Even the employees of the Transcendent Group were unaware of the other dimensions beneath the Transcendent Building.

Meanwhile, Ye Xiu, who was setting up a formation in the underground square in front of the Transcendent Building, was even more unaware of the ’Transcendent Laboratory’.

If Ye Xiu discovered it, he would instantly relate it to what Lei Busi had once referred to as the ’secret laboratory’!

”Welcome, Your Majesty!”

The laboratory head, who was reviewing documents in the office, hurriedly knelt to welcome Lin Lei as he pushed open the door.

”Extract Yuan Yao’s memory at the fastest speed possible, I only want her memory from today.”

Lin Lei didn’t waste words, got straight to the point, asked:

”How long will it take?”

The laboratory head thought for a moment: ”About 15 hours!”

Lin Lei handed Yuan Yao’s body to the head: ”I’ll wait right here. When it’s extracted, bring it to me immediately for review.” Lin Lei said.

”As you command!” The head quickly accepted Yuan Yao’s body, hurriedly left the office.

Ye Xiu only knew that the Eternal Kingdom’s technological level far surpassed those of global nations, but he didn’t know that the Eternal Kingdom had mastered the technology to extract memories from the dead!
