Chapter 586 I am not only Xia Xun's daughter, but also the Ghost and the Divine Physician Jiuye!
"Dr. Xia has disappeared!"
"What?"
Upon hearing his subordinate's words, Li Xiao's expression changed drastically, and he growled coldly, "Seal off all exits of Lingwu Island and find Xia Xun at all costs."
In the thick fog.
In a panic, Li Xiao stumbled and ran outside.
Arrive at the exit.
He raised his hand and tried to pull the door open, but found that it wouldn't budge.
Just as he was wondering.
Pei Jinwu suddenly walked to her side, lazily raising an eyebrow: "If nothing unexpected happens, Dr. Xia has already reached the basement exit."
"Bang--"
Then came another ear-piercing bang, and not only did smoke fill the air, but flames could also be seen through the glass.
The underground laboratory is on fire.
The area below contains chemical agents; if it comes into contact with flammable substances, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Every normal person is afraid of death.
Li Xiao's subordinates were the same.
In a dangerous situation, one's only desire is to survive.
Explosions, fires, thick smoke...
The underground laboratory was in complete chaos, with everyone scrambling to get out.
No one could see Xia Xun clearly at all.
"She can't escape."
Li Xiao stared fiercely at Pei Jinwu, confident and certain: "She can never escape me."
"Not necessarily," Pei Jinwu replied with a smile, a move that aimed to destroy his spirit.
"..."
When Li Xiao met Pei Jinwu's smiling face, his heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly felt that something was wrong.
Before I could even react...
His subordinate called again.
"Master, the core laboratory has been equipped with a self-destruct device," the subordinate said tremblingly. "It caught fire, and all the data is inside. It can't be salvaged."
What's the meaning?
His decades of hard work have been destroyed in an instant.
The data was destroyed, and Xia Xun escaped.
The possibility of a comeback is 0.
Thinking about this...
Li Xiao's neck stiffened as he stared at Pei Jinwu in disbelief, gritting his teeth and demanding fiercely, "Did you do all this?"
"It's me."
Pei Jinwu admitted it without hesitation.
"Why?"
Li Xiao frowned, pulled out his gun and pointed it at Pei Jinwu, his eyes bloodshot, and growled in a deep voice: "Ghost, you dare to scheme against me!"
"Someone come here!"
Li Xiao growled towards the outside, "Ghost, if the research goes wrong, I won't let you off!"
"..."
Pei Jinwu smiled slightly and said, "Sect Leader Li, please don't get agitated. No one outside can come in."
Because Li Xiao was extremely suspicious and feared the secrets would be leaked, very few people guarded the outside of the gene research institute, and they were all his trusted confidants.
When she came in.
Lou Ying, her fourth sister, and Feng Xing and Feng Zhi were left outside.
If nothing unexpected happens, the people around Li Xiao's room have already been dealt with in the chaos.
"..."
Li Xiao gave him a deep look, opened the door, and found the corridor empty.
Smoke filled the air, and the air reeked of nauseating chemicals.
"You think Xia Xun can leave safely after you've taken care of a few people?"
Li Xiao gripped his gun tightly, his fingers lightly touching the walkie-talkie on his collar, and coldly ordered, "Cut off the sea routes and all exits around Lingwu Island."
"Capture Dr. Xia Xun at all costs."
Li Xiao paused for a moment, then continued, "Turn the broadcast volume up to the maximum and tell Xia Xun that if she doesn't come back, I'll take it out on Sheng Beitang."
Holding Sheng Beitang in one's grasp is like holding Xia Xun's lifeline in one's grasp.
I'm not afraid at all.
“I bet she can leave.” Pei Jinwu stood there casually, his expression relaxed and languid: “Island Master Li might as well take a look out the window.”
Li Xiao glanced out the window out of the corner of his eye.
Countless helicopters hovered above Lingwu Island.
It doesn't look like an ordinary helicopter.
"Miss Ghost, what exactly do you want?" Li Xiao clenched his fist and glared fiercely at Pei Jinwu: "Do you want to monopolize the research results?"
"You think I'd even look at your pathetic research?"
Pei Jinwu smoothed her hair, raised an eyebrow and chuckled: "Let me tell you, the gene modification project has absolutely no chance of succeeding in the short term."
"Dr. Xia has been working on this for days, but he's also stuck on a crucial point, hasn't he?"
"How about I make a deal with Pavilion Master Li?"
"trade?"
Li Xiao narrowed his eyes, which were filled with pent-up anger, staring at Pei Jinwu with murderous intent, and sneered through gritted teeth: "You want to talk business with me on my turf? Do you even have the right?"
"If the dungeon doesn't receive my message in ten minutes, the contents of the helicopter will be thrown into the Hidden World Pavilion."
Pei Jinwu remained completely unperturbed and calmly stated, "At that time, Lingwu Mountain will be reduced to ruins."
"Sect Master Li certainly doesn't want his years of hard work to be destroyed in a sea of fire, does he?"
Pei Jinwu curled her lips into a smile and said unhurriedly, "Dr. Xia copied and sent me all the data from the lab."
"The lab was destroyed, and all I have is my terminal data."
"Give it a try!"
After hearing Pei Jinwu's words, Li Xiao's forehead veins bulged, and he wished he could kill her immediately.
"Dr. Xia is not the only person in the world who can study gene mutations."
Pei Jinwu raised her eyebrows slightly, her tone still calm, and said, word by word, "What if I exchanged someone else for Dr. Xia and Sheng Beitang?"
"Who else?"
"I."
Pei Jinwu tore off the mask from her face, revealing a fair, clean, delicate, and beautiful face to Li Xiao: "I promised Pavilion Master Li that I would let you see Dr. Xia's youngest daughter with your own eyes, the experimental subject you have been longing for."
"Now that you've seen him, how do you feel?"
"..."
Looking at Pei Jinwu, who looked almost exactly like Xia Xun when he was young, Li Xiao's pupils widened and his breath stopped for a moment.
"you……"
Li Xiao stood there, stunned, and asked incredulously, "You're Xia Xun's daughter? But you're not a ghost?"
"Doesn't look like it?"
Pei Jinwu's cold words rang out, "To be precise, I am the Ghost, and I am also the Divine Physician Jiuye."
"I am a test subject and have superb medical skills. No one is more suitable than me to study gene modification."
"Compared to my half-dead father and uncooperative mother, I'm more useful, aren't I?"
After speaking, Pei Jinwu threw the mask and gun onto the table at the same time, then sat down in the chair, crossed his legs, and showed his bare toes: "By exchanging them for me, Pavilion Master Li has made a profit."
"I agree. Release them. I'll go with you and do your research."
Ignoring Li Xiao's increasingly cold gaze, Pei Jinwu continued, "Even if you disagree, my mother will still leave. Then, it's either you or me who dies."
"But no matter who dies, I believe the dungeon will find my father."
"Sect Master Li, you have three minutes to consider."
"..."
Upon seeing the face that resembled Xia Xun so closely, Li Xiao staggered back several steps, almost losing his balance.
picture.
She looks just like Xia Xun when she was young, a living, breathing version of herself.
"How can I believe you can be of use to me?" Li Xiao said through gritted teeth.
"Smack—"
Pei Jinwu tossed the USB drive to Li Xiao, then pointed to herself: "With a test subject, even if I don't cooperate, what can you do?"
"Isn't cutting open the abdomen, drawing blood, and extracting the brain more useful than blindly conducting research?"
"..."
Li Xiao prided himself on being a ruthless man, but the girl in front of him seemed to be even more ruthless than him.
Renovation plan...
There can be absolutely no accidents.
"I agree."
Li Xiao spoke up, took out his phone and dialed his subordinate's number: "Release Sheng Beitang."
soon.
Pei Jinwu looked through the window and saw Sheng Beitang being picked up by Lou Ying.
"I don't believe you."
Li Xiao took out a bottle of medicine and handed it to Pei Jinwu: "Drink it."
"..."
Pei Jinwu glanced at the medicine, drank it without hesitation, and even shook the bottle.
"Aren't you afraid it's poisonous?" Li Xiao asked.
"Then die!"
The girl smiled calmly, her expression languid and casual.
"..."
Li Xiao stared at her face, momentarily dazed.
She's practically a carbon copy of Xia Xun.
Dogs all have the same temperament.
A few seconds later.
Overwhelmed by drowsiness, Pei Jinwu forced herself to stay rational and said, "Don't touch anyone else, or I'll kill you."
After making those harsh remarks.
The little girl's head lolled to the side, and she fainted.
