Chapter 2133: Chapter 2229: Evolution Theory

This poison might not be an ordinary one. If it weren’t for the massive spiritual energy sustaining my body, something would definitely have gone wrong.

"Hehe? Controlling wolves, what’s the big deal? Little fellow, you really have some skills. You’re the first to come in here, and I truly admire you for that."

The old man looked at Su Xuan, speaking in a tone of genuine appreciation.

Su Xuan smiled faintly. Seeing the two wolves, he breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that every overly clever person has a common flaw, which is being overly self-assured. Looking at this guy, at this moment, he was definitely being overly self-assured. He felt a sense of achievement having Su Xuan come in and then capturing him, so he didn’t have the thought to kill Su Xuan off quickly.

"I wouldn’t have guessed, at an age when you should be enjoying your later years, you’d be like neither man nor ghost."

Su Xuan sneered, and the primordial qi within him had already completely integrated those toxins. At this moment, he felt his spiritual energy was like sinking into a quagmire, with no way to move it at all. He knew it would be very difficult to restore the primordial qi. This was the body’s way of protecting itself, using all its power and qi to block the toxins and safeguard his organs from damage.

Su Xuan tried to circulate his qi, but found he couldn’t mobilize it at all. After attempting a few times, he gave up.

"Do you know what poison you’ve been hit with? This is a new poison I’ve developed, called ’gentleness’. Isn’t it a gentle-sounding name? In fact, this poison won’t kill you, but it will continually corrode your body’s tendons and bones. Within two days, you’ll be limp on the ground as if boneless. The best part of this poison is that after it corrodes your bones and tendons, it can preserve your organs. The organs, they’re really something valuable."

After hearing this, Su Xuan was startled in his heart. This was indeed a vicious poison. If it weren’t for the strong primordial qi within him, which directly entangled the toxin with powerful spiritual energy, it would have been real trouble.

"You are truly vicious?"

Su Xuan cursed angrily. He never expected this guy to be so ruthless. This massive underground organization was simply infuriating.

"Hehe, forgot to tell you, my name is indeed ’Vicious’."

The old man said smugly. At this moment, Su Xuan noticed many human specimens in the laboratory, but most were already dead. It seemed they had been dragged in for experiments.

Su Xuan suddenly laughed, but said nothing.

"What are you laughing at?"

Seeing Su Xuan, indeed, the old man’s curiosity was piqued by Su Xuan’s smile. He was originally prepared to have the two wolves launch an attack. Although the old man was very confident in his poison, he wouldn’t take chances. Anything could have unexpected outcomes, and he didn’t want to end up defeated in the gutter.

"I’m laughing at how a dignified national-level professor ended up doing such unspeakable things? It’s truly ironic?"

"You recognize me?"

The old man looked at Su Xuan, with his facial expression twitching slightly, as if Su Xuan’s words had touched a deep chord within him.

"If I’m not mistaken, you should be that once-famous professor of the biology department at Huaqing University. You proposed many bold conclusions at that time. I remember you wrote a book, it was called ’Advanced Evolution Theory’, right?"

Su Xuan said, appearing as if he couldn’t hold on, then fell to the ground with a thud, leaning against the wall, his left hand deliberately placed behind an obstacle. At that moment, he projected the hidden computer from his advanced watch.

Su Xuan knew that to escape today’s predicament, he needed to control those two wolves. Initially, he thought the two wolves were fake, but seeing the blood on the ground he realized they were real, just manipulated in a special way.

And it’s very likely due to technological power. If it’s technological power, then a computer would be needed to control it, so Su Xuan’s plan was to hack into the opponent’s computer, then break into the program, naturally being able to control the two wolves, subsequently launching an attack on the old man. This way, he’d have the chance to turn the situation around.

So, what was most important for Su Xuan right now was to seize an opportunity. Breaking into such a program wasn’t easy, and controlling with one hand needed more time. Hence, he’d have to keep this old man interested in his words to create such a chance.

"Have you... have you read that book?"

As expected, the old man was very intrigued by Su Xuan’s words, even speaking with some excitement. He didn’t expect Su Xuan to have read that book.

Su Xuan shrugged, smiling as he spoke.

"I have indeed read that book. Well, old man Vicious, when did you change your name? As far as I know, the pen name for that book was ’Mad Scientist’, and the person who wrote it was named Qin Zhongshu."

Su Xuan said with a smile, surprised in his heart. Initially, he didn’t recognize this guy, but just earlier, he realized that this old man was actually the top professor fired by Huaqing University, named Qin Zhongshu. His theories were bold, and as Su Xuan knew, this person was very talented, even a maverick.

Su Xuan didn’t expect this once incredibly powerful expert to end up in such a sorry state, which was beyond his expectations.

"What do you think of that book?"

As expected, Qin Zhongshu was not allowing the wolves to approach Su Xuan, instead looking at him with a curious gaze.

"Hehe, aren’t you curious about how I knew? Your book is practically untraceable now!"

Su Xuan rubbed his nose, appearing weak, while his left hand moved quickly. Indeed, working single-handedly wasn’t too comfortable, but despite the discomfort, he continued breaking down the incredibly complex program.

"Who are you? How do you know?"

Qin Zhongshu asked curiously, he was indeed curious about this. After all, his book had been directly banned, and that was what the old man felt most regretful about.

"I am also a student of Huaqing University. I came across the Evolution Theory by accident. Truth be told, I’m not that impressed with your theories!"

Su Xuan said disdainfully, knowing that to deal with this old man, he must make him unsatisfied.
