"Can he really grant you Eternity in your life?" Liufeng said with skepticism, feeling a mix of shock and doubt, yet also a hint of belief.
The topic of Eternal Life and Eternity sounded nearly impossible to achieve. With current scientific technology, not to mention Eternal Life, even extending one's lifespan seemed unattainable!
Yet Eternity claimed he could grant all his followers Eternity!
"Yes, when he found me, he offered me Eternal Life as a condition for me to help him!"
Liufeng was a meticulous person; he wouldn't blindly trust the words of an enemy. However, he failed to realize that Kato Muteki was lying.
Given Kato Muteki's intellect, he would never willingly serve Eternity unless he had witnessed some facts about Eternal Life with his own eyes.
Upon further reflection, Liufeng had to admit that Eternity indeed possessed some means to grant people Eternity, though he couldn't fathom how it was done.
"Then please enlighten me, what is the method for Eternity and Eternal Life? Why are you so obsessed with the Spirit Stone? Is the method for Eternal Life contained within the Spirit Stone?" Liufeng sneered, "You have only one chance to speak. I want the truth; otherwise..."
The smile on Liufeng's face turned increasingly sinister, causing even the seasoned Kato Muteki to feel a chill run down his spine.
"I truly don't know what his method for Eternal Life is! How can I tell you?" Kato Muteki replied with a bitter smile, fear evident in his eyes as he worried that Liufeng might immediately pull out the saw from his thigh.
"You don't know his method for Eternal Life? Then how can you believe he has one? You're not a foolish person; if he hasn't shown you any hope, how could you possibly work for him?" Liufeng questioned.
"I genuinely don't understand how he does it. At first, he just gave me a Revitalization Pill. After taking it, I felt like I had become young again. Then every year, he would give us a Revitalization Pill, making us work for him while promising us Eternity!” Kato Muteki, fearing that Liufeng would torture him, immediately revealed everything without holding back.
"Revitalization Pill? What is it made of?" A look of astonishment crossed Liufeng's face.
He had never imagined that there could be a miraculous drug in the world capable of reversing aging!
"If I knew that, I wouldn't have to wait for him to give it to me every year!" Kato Muteki replied helplessly.
"You've gone around in circles, yet you still haven't clearly told me why Eternity insists on retrieving the Spirit Stone. Don't try to brush me off; I have everything except patience," Liufeng raised an eyebrow and said.
"Eternity told us that only by reclaiming the Spirit Stone can we obtain the true method for Eternal Life!" Kato Muteki dared not hide anything.
"From what you're saying, there really seems to be a connection between the Spirit Stone and Eternal Life," Liufeng nodded in realization.
"If you let me go, I can guarantee that if I bring back the Spirit Stone, Eternity will definitely grant you Eternal Life!" Kato Muteki's eyes were filled with a desperate longing for survival.
"The benefits of Eternal Life? Heh, that's quite a tempting offer..." Liufeng stroked his chin thoughtfully.
"With your abilities, if you join our side, you'll gain even more!" Kato Muteki seemed to see a glimmer of hope for survival and spoke excitedly.
"However, it's a pity that while I am somewhat tempted by Eternal Life, I would rather embrace death than live my life under the shadow of betrayal," Liufeng said, blinking. "I believe a person's lifetime is already long enough; there's no need to be so greedy. What good is Eternal Life? When everything is within reach, what awaits you is loneliness—endless loneliness!"
"I don't believe it! I refuse to believe anyone can resist such temptation. You're lying; you're deceiving your own heart!" Kato Muteki shouted frantically.
"This is my true heart. It's not that I'm unmoved; it's that my remaining conscience tells me not to abandon my soul. Heh, a soulless person is no different from a walking corpse!" Liufeng chuckled. "Alright, there's no point in talking to someone like you who thinks everyone can be driven by profit."
"I've already told you so much; can you let me go now?" Kato Muteki asked.
"Not yet. I still have some questions I'd like to ask you," Liufeng emphasized the word "ask."
"What else do you want to know? Is it true that if I tell you, you'll definitely let me go?" Kato Muteki said despairingly.
"As long as you tell me, I will let you go," Liufeng nodded.
"Alright then, ask away. As long as I know, I won't lie to you."
"Very well, my favorite person to collaborate with. Who is Eternity? Where is he now?" Liufeng asked directly.
"Eternity is just Eternity, how can I explain? With my status, how could I possibly know where he is? Usually, it's the Lord who informs me," Kato Muteki replied excitedly.
"Hmph. What I mean is, what is his true identity? What is his name?" Liufeng said with a cold snort.
"I don't know his name, I really don't. I've only met him once," Kato Muteki said, looking at Liufeng's furrowed brow in terror and shaking his head desperately.
"Then what country is he from?"
"I'm not sure, but I know he is of East Asian descent!"
"What else do you know about him? His age and appearance, think carefully and then tell me," Liufeng said calmly.
"He looks to be in his twenties, very handsome, about six feet tall, very straight, with long hair tied in a small ponytail," Kato Muteki said. "That's all I know about him; I don't know anything else."
"How did you contact him?" Liufeng continued to ask.
"We communicated through phone calls, but the person I spoke to was always the Lord. Eternity only showed up once, and after that, I never saw him again."
Liufeng thought for a moment and said, "Give me the phone number that connects you to the Lord. Don't try to play any tricks with me; otherwise, you'll find yourself in a miserable situation. Trust me, I don't like to lie."
"Okay, I'll tell you!" Kato Muteki nodded mechanically.
...
A little over ten minutes later, Liufeng came out and picked up the phone to call Mo Ming.
At that time, Mo Ming was sitting on the sofa in the hall with three women watching a drama when he received a call from Liufeng. He immediately got up and went to a quiet place.
"Liufeng, what's going on?" Mo Ming asked calmly.
Liufeng explained everything that had happened and then asked, "I have Lord's phone number. Perhaps we can use this lead to find their hideout!"
"You all did great! Ha ha, I bet Eternity would never expect that we have basically grasped their plan," Mo Ming said excitedly, smiling broadly. "You go find Demon Eye and have him trace that phone number. I'll head back to Nanhua City tomorrow. We must act before they make a move!"
"Alright, I'll take care of it," Liufeng said before hanging up.
Mo Ming returned to the hall and looked a bit embarrassed at the three women. "I have to deal with something in Nanhua City again, so I need to go back tomorrow."
In fact, Mo Ming's injuries had mostly healed after days of rest, but he had been reluctant to leave because he wanted to spend more time with the three women.
However, now that Liufeng had received such significant news, he had to return to Nanhua City.
"Since you have things to do, just go back. Don't worry about us; we're fine," Murong Lian said calmly. "We're actually more worried about you. Are your injuries healed?"
"They're mostly healed; there's no need to worry. I’ll be fine," Mo Ming smiled and said. "You all just wait for me here. Once I finish my business, I'll come back right away."
"Okay, we'll wait for you," Murong Lian replied.
"Brother Mo, be careful when you go back. Don't get hurt again. It really bothers me every time I see you injured," Lin Yuan'er said reluctantly.
"I feel the same way. We all hope not to see you hurt, Mo Ming. For the sake of our child, you must stay safe!" Jun Qianqian looked at Mo Ming affectionately and said, "The child and I will be waiting for you to come back."
"Alright, I'll be careful," Mo Ming smiled and gently stroked Jun Qianqian's cheek.
That night, Murong Lian prepared a lot of delicious dishes, and Lin Yuan'er also made soup.
I have to say, Lin Yuan'er's cooking skills have improved quite a bit. Although she only knows how to make soup, the soup she made was sweet and tasty.
Zhu Hanying heard that Mo Ming was leaving tomorrow and couldn't help but feel a bit displeased. She muttered a few words but didn't say much more.
The family quietly had dinner and then gathered on the sofa to watch Korean dramas for the rest of the evening.
"Those guys can't compare to my handsomeness! Why do you all like watching these pretty boys?" Mo Ming yawned and asked.
"You can't even be compared to handsome, okay? Calling them pretty boys is just pure jealousy!" Murong Lian rolled her eyes at Mo Ming.
Zhu Hanying had already gone to rest; otherwise, Murong Lian wouldn't have dared to say that someone's son wasn't handsome in front of her mother.
If Zhu Hanying overheard and felt uncomfortable, it would greatly reduce her impression of Murong Lian. She certainly didn't want to be disliked by her mother-in-law.
"Come on, with those plastic surgery pretty boys, why would I need to be jealous of them?" Mo Ming said.
"Brother Mo, I think you're really handsome!" Lin Yuan'er chimed in at that moment.
"See, Yuan has good taste! Murong Lian, you're my woman; please stop always mocking me," Mo Ming said as he hugged Lin Yuan'er and gave her a passionate kiss.
"Hehe, you didn't seem handsome before, but now I find you more and more attractive," Jun Qianqian abandoned Murong Lian and joined Lin Yuan'er's side.
"Qianqian is so sweet; come here and give me a kiss!" Mo Ming laughed.
Jun Qianqian shyly offered her jade-like cheek. With such an active beauty, Mo Ming naturally didn't hesitate to give her a kiss.
“Murong Lian, do you want to let your husband give you a kiss too?” Mo Ming provocatively looked at Murong Lian.
“No.”
Murong Lian said this with a conflicted heart. After the words left her mouth, she felt a bit annoyed with herself. Why was she opposing him when he was leaving tomorrow?
But now that the words were out, Murong Lian had no way to take them back.
“You said it yourself, don’t say your husband isn’t fair!” Mo Ming pointed at Murong Lian and said.
“Hmph, what I mean is that I’m not saying anything.” Murong Lian crossed her arms and turned her head away angrily.
Suddenly, Murong Lian felt a kiss on her cheek, and she couldn’t help but feel a rush of warmth.
“Well then, I’m very fair; everyone gets a sweet kiss!” Mo Ming laughed heartily.
Jun Qianqian and Lin Yuan'er couldn’t help but laugh at the scene.
