By collecting the soul, Li Mu confirmed that Felix was telling the truth.

A fireball ended the friendly conversation with Felix, and he passed away peacefully, turning into a handful of ashes in an instant.

The strike and riots at the Li family mine were all orchestrated by this guy, along with other ridiculous and absurd things.

Felix did indeed have a box of US dollars upstairs; this money was used to pay workers' wages and as a reserve fund for starting work.

Li Mu didn't originally want the money, but since he hadn't brought much foreign currency with him this time, he took it upstairs without hesitation.

After doing all that, Li Mu and Lin Hongluan went to the backyard of the house, where there were a lot of opals.

He casually launched a few water balloons, covering all the surveillance cameras, and began collecting ore.

Of the dozen or so containers, only one contained sorted raw opal; the others were filled with large amounts of slag.

Several hundred tons of opal mixed with slag; even after removing the slag, the quantity is not small.

Li Mu spent nearly an hour moving all the ores into the Golden Pearl World before leaving Yuva Town.

He didn't kill Felix's three maids or the two beautiful women who couldn't afford clothes.

These people will lose some of their memories because of a barrier that blocks spiritual energy in their brains, but this will not have a major impact on their lives.

It's around 4 p.m. now, and they'll be back in Sydney in an hour.

If Mark Brown confirms it's a night flight, they should be able to meet him before he leaves.

The troubles at Li's Mining and the disappearance of Li Hongjun are all related to this man, and Li Mu will not let him go.

Before stepping onto the flying sword, Li Mu suddenly remembered what Felix had said about Mark Brown going to Great Britain.

Li Xuan and her second aunt are currently in Great Britain. I wonder if Mark Brown is going to deal with them.

Li Mu immediately dialed Li Xuan's number, but the call could not be connected.

Li Mu was in a panic. There was still no clue about his second uncle's disappearance. Could something else have happened there?

Great Britain is thousands of miles away from Australia, so even if something happens, it's beyond his reach.

.

After being transported to the base, Li Hongjun fell into a coma for four days due to an overdose of hallucinogenic liquid.

The first thing he saw when he woke up was an old man sitting cross-legged on the floor with a low table in front of him.

This person had blond curly hair, a high nose, but an Asian face.

The old man's age was hard to discern. As he watched her wake up, his dark eyes shone with kindness and compassion, and he greeted her with a smile.

"I hope Fellow Daoist Li is sleeping well! I have offended you greatly by meeting you in this manner."

There is some food here; you can have a small meal first, and then we can discuss the Dao together.

Li Hongjun had just woken up and felt weak all over due to the anesthesia and hunger.

He glanced at the three small jade bottles placed in front of the old man, his eyes narrowed, and then he casually picked up the food next to him and started eating.

The old man looked unremarkable, but he felt that he was stronger than Tu Laodao, who had almost killed him with a single punch.

His own elixir appeared here, and he himself was brought here; his wolfish ambitions were obvious.

The old man's kindness and benevolence were too obviously motivated by a desire to know the origin of the elixir.

.

Hua Tian wasn't too surprised to see Li Hongjun start eating without saying a word.

Martial artists are all passionate people who don't get bogged down in trivialities, so such behavior is quite normal.

After eating, Li Hongjun sat down opposite the old man and stared at the small jade bottle on the low table for a few moments.

Seeing that Li Hongjun still showed no intention of speaking, Hua Tian said:

"Old Daoist Hua Tian, ​​this place is an isolated island, still a stronghold of my Hua Sheng Sect."

The Huashengmen is an organization founded by the old Taoist priest thirty years ago. Although it has neither eliminated evil nor committed any heinous crimes, it has never done anything wrong.

It's a business that helps people solve their problems; I wonder if you'd be willing to join Watson's group.

After listening, Li Hongjun sneered inwardly. It was truly eye-opening to hear an assassination organization described so grandly by this old man.

He neither agreed nor refused, but simply reached out towards the jade bottle on the low table, as if testing the waters.

Who knew that Li Hongjun would reach his hand into the middle of the low table, suddenly clench his fist, and throw a punch at the old man opposite him, launching a sneak attack.

Hua Tian looked at the sudden turn of events, a smirk playing on his lips, and inwardly he laughed like a pig.

How could a martial artist at the Profound Realm dare to launch a surprise attack in front of him? How confident must he be?

He casually deflected Li Hongjun's punch in the direction it came from, and Li Hongjun was like a kite with a broken string, lightly thrown to the corner of the wall.

The force was controlled very skillfully, neutralizing Li Hongjun's punch without injuring anyone.

Li Hongjun knew he was outmatched, but he hadn't expected his skills to be so poor. He got up and started cursing:

“You old geezer, you’re really wicked. I, Li Hongjun, would never do such a business that goes against the natural order, disregards human life, and is ruthless and vicious, even if it means my death.”

Hua Tian, ​​upon hearing Li Hongjun's outburst, did not get angry but instead laughed:

"Hahaha! Fellow Daoist Li is indeed a man of character, and his cultivation technique is truly excellent, but his strength still needs to be improved."

I wonder if I could study your cultivation method? Perhaps this old Daoist could offer some guidance.

Hua Tian sensed the difference in Li Hongjun's technique after just one punch.

Despite only having the cultivation level of the Yellow Realm, he was able to unleash the strength of the Profound Realm, which proves that he has the enhancement of the cultivation technique he has practiced.

.

Li Hongjun now fully understood that this old scoundrel was utterly wicked.

They tried every means to kidnap him, not only wanting him to join the assassination organization, but also wanting the source of his elixirs and his cultivation techniques. They were really dreaming.

He would never be allowed to be an assassin, and he couldn't reveal that the pills and cultivation techniques were given to him by Li Mu.

You have to understand that Li Mu was raised by him like a son. Even tigers don't eat their cubs, so how could he possibly betray Li Mu?

In the following days, Li Hongjun ate and drank as usual on the isolated island, slept whenever he could, and meditated and practiced his martial arts after waking up.

Occasionally, Old Man Hua would come over and engage in some witty banter, even fighting a few battles with some of the superpowered individuals and martial artists at the base like a child.

Hua Tian hasn't had a good solution for Li Hongjun these past few days. If he wants his pills and cultivation techniques, he can't just kill him.

Currently, the only way to deal with Li Hongjun is to wait it out. If we can wear him down and wear him down, he should eventually give in.

He would often play with the small jade bottle when he had nothing to do. There were three bottles of pills; he had taken one, and there were eight left. One of the bottles had already been sent for research and development.

That day, unable to suppress his curiosity and desire, he directly consumed all three pills from one of the bottles.

Unexpectedly, after taking the three pills, their medicinal power increased exponentially, causing his cultivation level to improve significantly.

The explosive force of the pill almost allowed him to break through from the early stage of the Heavenly Realm to the middle stage, which made his heart burn with excitement.

Old Man Hua, who originally wanted to stall for time with Li Hongjun, now had to resort to crooked ideas.

According to his plan, he would bring Li Hongjun's wife and children to the island and use them to coerce him, which should have some effect.

I heard someone went to Li Hongjun's villa in Australia again. We have to bring them over. Anyone who is close to Li Hongjun should be brought over first.

If Li Hongjun doesn't cooperate, then we'll kill them one by one and see if he values ​​the elixir more than his family.

.

Li Mu's premonition was indeed accurate. The day after Li Xuan spoke to him on the phone, someone found their residence.

Two white men and women entered the room and knocked them unconscious.

Subsequently, Li Xuan and her mother were injected with hallucinogenic potion.

At this moment, the mother and daughter had dim eyes and somewhat blank expressions as they sat in a helicopter, heading to Watson Gate America Base.
