The issue of Yanjing "taking in" Tang Haofei was easily glossed over with a single sentence from Wen Yu.

In the afternoon, Wen Yu organized a high-level video conference to officially announce Tang Haofei’s joining of Yanjing. As for his position, it was the highest advisor to the Yanjing army.

A nominal position, without real power—Wen Yu couldn’t possibly give Tang Haofei any real power, and Tang Haofei naturally understood Wen Yu’s predicament, so the matter was tacitly left aside by the two of them.

After the meeting, Wen Yu and Tang Haofei returned to the office, drinking and chatting about past events, both feeling nostalgic.

It wasn’t until the conversation neared its end that Wen Yu, as if unintentionally, asked the question he was most concerned with.

About the Life and Death Battle Execution.

"So, are you still planning to use the Life and Death Battle Execution to enhance your strength?"

The question was intentional, and the listener understood what was going on, yet with Tang Haofei’s return, he might have truly regained his former character. He hesitated for a moment, not giving Wen Yu a false answer.

"Actually, this matter is rather troublesome for me. It’s undeniable that Life and Death Battle Execution greatly helps in power enhancement speed, but you also have some understanding of how I deal with the cost of power."

"When I use Life and Death Battle Execution, the cost of power likely causes the birth of carbon copies in the World of the Heart’s Image. Without my guidance, this carbon copy is most likely to be dominated by malicious thoughts. One or two I can handle, but too many malicious thoughts suppress the benevolent ones."

"So now, my use of Life and Death Battle Execution... Well, it doesn’t depend on the cooldown duration of my resurrection skill, but rather my own endurance. According to my estimation, once or twice a year is the limit."

Wen Yu nodded lightly upon hearing this.

Once or twice a year, such a refresh speed has not exceeded Wen Yu’s capacity to handle it. In other words, Tang Haofei’s strength enhancement speed is still under Wen Yu’s control.

But who knows if Old Tang is telling the truth?

Just like the thoughts within Wen Yu’s mind in the World of the Heart’s Image.

By now, many things have undergone a qualitative change.

"Actually, there’s one more thing I want to ask of you."

Tang Haofei spoke again, Wen Yu put aside his thoughts and nodded lightly.

"Go ahead."

"I want to find a few psychological experts... I want to bring them into the World of the Heart’s Image to help me guide the newly born personalities..."

Tang Haofei spoke hesitantly—he not only couldn’t let go of the Life and Death Battle Execution skill, he also wanted to speed up the refresh rate of Life and Death Battle Execution without abandoning the benevolent traits of the personality.

This runs counter to Wen Yu’s interests.

Upon hearing this, Wen Yu took a deep breath, looked at the computer on the table, and fell into contemplation.

Until the other end of the computer gave an answer.

"Agree to it."

"Alright! Just wait at your residence, tonight, I’ll send the people to your place."

Wen Yu nodded and agreed.

Upon hearing this, a grateful expression appeared on Tang Haofei’s face, he scratched his head and laughed sheepishly.

"So, my residence..."

"Yes, Li Quan’an!"

"Creak."

The door opened, and the figure of Li Quan’an came into view of the two of them.

"Arrange a manor for Tang Haofei, from today onward, you will be responsible for all of Tang Haofei’s daily matters."

"Yes, sir."

Li Quan’an nodded agreement. Afterwards, Wen Yu looked at Tang Haofei and found no hint of discontent on his face.

Wen Yu openly planted an eye, and Tang Haofei just pretended not to see.

...

After Li Quan’an and Tang Haofei left, Wen Yu stood up, pacing around the office. After a while, he waved his hand to set up a soundproof barrier in the office, then walked to the computer, his expression grave, and asked.

"What do you think?"

Wen Yu must discuss this with Lin Haifeng.

"He’s troublesome. At this time, with Tang Haofei returning to Yanjing, there are too many uncontrollable factors. Plus, can you really be sure he has returned to being the old Tang Haofei?"

"I’m not sure, that’s precisely why I feel it’s troublesome."

On one hand, if Tang Haofei truly shakes off the influence of the cost of power, he will undoubtedly be a powerful aid to Yanjing.

His individual martial strength is just slightly inferior to Wen Yu’s, and unlike Wen Yu, he doesn’t hide so many secrets. In other words, under the Dominator’s watchful eye, Tang Haofei can unleash his full power without reservation. In such a situation, he can accomplish tasks that Wen Yu’s carbon copy couldn’t!

On the other hand, if Tang Haofei hasn’t completely shaken off the influence of the power cost, though according to the Dominator’s request Wen Yu cannot eliminate Tang Haofei, Wen Yu can still negotiate with the Dominator and Tang Haofei to place him in a desolate area.

It’s precisely due to this middle ground that makes the matter difficult.

"Keeping him in Yanjing, he’s a time bomb. I don’t know if he’s good or not. Letting him out, I’m afraid he’ll slip from my monitoring, crazily refresh Life and Death Battle Execution, then fall outside my ability to control, causing significant issues."

This is Wen Yu’s dilemma.

"It’s better to keep him under watch, as for how to deal with him... there’s no good solution."

The Dominator’s prohibition in front, Tang Haofei’s power behind, these two points are practically unsolvable. Right now, Lin Haifeng can only give the reply "keep him under watch," which doesn’t solve the root of the problem.

"And regarding sending him psychological experts, why should we agree?"

Faced with Wen Yu’s questioning, after a moment, Lin Haifeng finally gave an explanation.

"First, to assess his current psychological state, see whether he truly has solved the power cost. Secondly, it’s merely a speculative move."

"I want to see if I can artificially create a weakness for him. Oh, here’s the list I’ve prepared."

Upon hearing this, Wen Yu immediately looked at the computer screen.

"Vila... Our female War God... Hmm, how come I never knew she was a psychologist?"

"And Leona, Katherin... Sun Xuewei... Tsk, are you sending psychologists or concubines?"

Seeing the "psychologist" list provided by Lin Haifeng, Wen Yu was speechless, a full ten people, all beautiful women, among them, five are indeed psychological experts but the remaining five...

Only to say, beauty comes in all sizes, with distinct styles.

"Beauty trap; it’s cliché, but effective. If Tang Haofei really, you know, gets involved, it’s best if a child results, then this matter will have great potential."

Using family to control someone, though an old method, it never fails. Tang Haofei has no family, but familial ties can be artificially created.

As to whether it will be effective, only time can answer all questions.
