After signing the contract with Lin Shaoxiong, Shen Lang called Dongxue in.
"Xue'er, the four of you go with Patriarch Lin and deal with the petty scoundrels in the Lin family." Shen Lang instructed Dong Xue, "The four of you will stay in the Lin family for the time being. If there are any unusual developments, remember to contact me immediately."
"Yes, young master," Dongxue replied respectfully.
Shen Lang then looked at Lin Shaoxiong and said, "Patriarch Lin, you have one week to hand over the reins with Canglang Group. If it takes longer than one week, I will no longer guarantee your safety, and Xuri Group will no longer have any reason to exist."
Lin Shaoxiong bowed his head tremblingly and replied, "Yes, yes, Young Master Shen, I guarantee that the complete Xuri Group will be delivered to Canglang Group within a week."
"Hmm, you're a smart person. I won't say anything more. You can go now."
After seeing the group out of the reception room, Shen Lang waved to close the door and then slipped into his and Yu Xian'er's private room.
“Husband, you’re back just in time. Try this outfit on.”
Yu Xian'er held a snow-white long robe, on which a picture of the sun, moon and stars was embroidered with gold thread.
She came to Shen Lang's side, gently pushed away his clothes, and was about to change him into new clothes when Shen Lang picked her up by the waist and threw her onto the bed.
Shen Lang looked at Yu Xian'er with a wicked grin and said mischievously, "My dear wife, your husband is here!"
Yu Xian'er smiled helplessly, and after undressing, she began to prepare for Shen Lang's attack.
After a passionate encounter, Shen Lang embraced Yu Xian'er and asked, "Xian'er, do you know about the Otherworldly Soul Sect?"
Yu Xian'er shook her head and said, "Husband, I've never heard of the Strange Soul Sect. Shuang'er knows more about these martial arts sects, you can ask her."
"Okay." Shen Lang then waved the phone over and dialed Shuang'er's number.
As soon as the call connected, Shuang'er's playful voice rang out: "Honey, why did you suddenly call me? Did you miss me? Let me tell you, it's no use missing me, because I'm not in S Province right now!"
Shen Lang asked with a smile, "Where did you run off to again, you little rascal?"
"Me? I'm in a very mysterious place, you wouldn't know even if I told you," Shuang'er said. "It's an unknown little island in the Pacific Ocean."
"Um, Shuang'er, I have something to ask you."
"Honey, you tell me."
"Do you know about the Otherworldly Soul Sect?" Shen Lang asked.
"Yes, I know about the Otherworldly Soul Sect. It's a reclusive sect that has existed for thousands of years. It was established during the Western Han Dynasty. It belongs to the category of evil and unorthodox sects. In the martial arts world, they are called the lowest of the low, like rats that everyone wants to kill." Shuang'er replied, "Husband, did this Otherworldly Soul Sect offend you?"
"Yes, there might be some friction," Shen Lang said. "Tell me more about their strength."
"Hiss~" Shuang'er gasped and said, "Husband, the people of the Otherworldly Soul Sect are elusive and their methods are extremely cruel and bizarre, making them impossible to guard against. It is said that they use the souls of the dead as cultivation resources and emerge whenever the world is in chaos, causing havoc in the region. In times of peace, they go into seclusion to avoid being hunted down by the martial arts world, and few people in the martial arts world know where they are."
"Even the Yu family couldn't find out?" Shen Lang frowned slightly upon hearing this.
Shuang'er, abandoning her usual playfulness, said in a serious tone, "Husband, you know there are too many places in this world that ordinary people cannot set foot in. Some forbidden areas are not even easy for the Yu family to enter."
"Okay, I understand." Shen Lang hung up the phone with a serious expression.
"Husband, is there something wrong?" This was the first time Yu Xian'er had seen Shen Lang's expression so solemn, and her heart was moved.
Shen Lang smiled and said, "It's alright, I can handle it."
Although Shen Lang appeared calm on the surface, he was actually quite nervous inside.
Through Shuang'er's information, he learned that the Otherworldly Soul Sect was a reclusive sect that only appeared when the world was in chaos. So what was the relationship between this sect and the troublemakers in Luo Fei's memory?
How did they learn that the world was about to descend into chaos?
It's not hard to see from the actions of the Otherworldly Soul Sect that they are preparing for the coming chaos.
After coaxing Yu Xian'er to sleep, Shen Lang tiptoed out of the room and came to the artificial lake in the courtyard. Gazing at the misty lake, he was deeply moved and his heart remained unsettled.
Being able to foresee what will happen in the future, yet being unable to change it, he understood what true powerlessness meant at that moment.
At this moment, Zhao Wuji quietly walked behind Shen Lang and took a white fox fur coat to drape over him.
Without turning his head, Shen Lang asked, "Old Zhao, if you could foresee the future, but couldn't change what was going to happen, what would you do?"
Zhao Wuji bowed slightly and smiled, "Young Master, in the Xuan Tian Great World, there is a sect called the Heavenly Mystery Sect. The people of this sect claim to be able to see through the secrets of heaven and have predicted many chaotic eras, all of which have come true. Later, in order to protect their status, those super families and super sects would follow the words of the Heavenly Mystery Sect to prevent the occurrence of chaotic eras, but no matter how much manpower and resources they spent, it was all in vain. What is destined to happen will eventually happen, what is destined to rise will still rise, and what is destined to perish cannot escape."
"Do you mean to say that everything is up to fate?" Shen Lang asked.
Zhao Wuji laughed and said, "Then it depends on whether you believe in so-called destiny, or whether you follow it."
Shen Lang pondered for a while and carefully sorted out the recent events.
He discovered an important point.
That is, the reborn, Luo Fei.
What was the reason for Luo Fei's rebirth? Was it merely because of the obsession in Luo Fei's heart?
Shen Lang didn't believe it.
Then there's only one possibility: to bring the future memories of alien invasion into the present, or rather, to bring them to oneself.
"Old Zhao, where is Luo Fei now?" Shen Lang asked.
"His sister is taking care of him in the hospital."
"Come on, let's go see him."
"Yes, young master."
Immediately, Zhao Wuji drove a Rolls-Royce, carrying Shen Lang, towards Sheng Tang Hospital.
Midway through, Shen Lang dialed Xia Bingyan's number.
"Honey, what's wrong?"
Shen Lang said, "Bingyan, the Lin family will be withdrawing from S Province. You should prepare to take over the resources left behind by Xuri Group and the Lin family."
"Okay, I understand. Honey, do you want to come see me tonight? I miss you so much."
"Okay, I'll be there later." Shen Lang replied with a smile, then hung up the phone.
Inside Sheng Tang Hospital, Luo Fei was lying on a luxurious sofa reading a book when the door to his ward was suddenly pushed open.
“Mr. Zhao…” Luo Fei looked at Zhao Wuji who appeared in front of him and immediately put down the book in his hand.
Rosie looked at Zhao Wuji and asked curiously, "Xiao Fei, do you know this gentleman?"
