Having the genes of a demon king, I never intended to be a kept man.

With Xue'er backing him up behind the scenes, Ye Ge closed his eyes with peace of mind, letting the instruments scan his body as he lay back in the chair, waiting patiently and enjoying the acupuncture and massage.

Go ahead and do your research; I guarantee you won't utter a sound once you start...

"This..." The researchers stared at the data on the computer screen with an incredulous expression.

"What's wrong?" Carl asked.

"Sir, look...this is completely unreasonable," the researcher said with a complicated expression.

Carl leaned down and took a closer look at the content on the computer screen. He was slightly taken aback and a strange expression appeared on his face.

"We've never seen anything like this before." The researcher scratched his head. "This cellular structure is simply ridiculous; it doesn't look like life on Earth at all..."

"..." Karl remained silent, turning his head to look at the Star Dragon lying back in the chair.

What's wrong with this guy?

About ten minutes later.

Ye Ge got off the chair and stretched: "Phew~~~ This chair is quite comfortable."

"By the way, Carl, how's the genetic testing going? Did they find anything from my cells?"

Karl paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Mr. Xingminglong's cells are indeed different from others, but unfortunately the company's technological level is still limited, and we can't analyze anything yet."

"Hehe, then you guys have to do your best. I'm counting on you." Ye Ge smiled. "Actually, I'm also quite curious about why I can use divine power."

“Of course, we will inform Mr. Xingminglong of the results,” Karl said.

"Okay," Ye Ge said. "By the way, when are you going to take me to that data experience pool?"

"..." Carlton paused, "The company suffered a cyberattack from an outside hacker before. Most of the data and experience accumulated in the company's virtual space were stolen. There's not much left now. Let's upgrade Mr. Xingminglong when we have more accumulated."

"Hacked? Your gene company's technology is so advanced that it could be attacked by outside hackers?" Ye Ge feigned surprise: "What kind of expert could do something like this?"

“Gao Shenxue, the number one genius mechanic of the human race.” Carlton paused, “That time it was indeed a mistake by one of our internal staff.”

"Oh." Night Song: "Then we shouldn't be attacked anymore, right?"

“Of course not.” Carl nodded and assured him, “That was just a momentary oversight. After that incident, we set up a more robust network firewall and changed the IP addresses. The same problem will never happen again.”

Ye Ge's lips curled into a slight smile: "Is that so? I hope so..."

The words just fell.

At that moment, the researchers' alarmed cries rang out again: "Lord Karl, something terrible has happened! The company's virtual network has been attacked by external hackers, the firewall has failed, and the experience points in the data experience pool are being stolen!"

"???" Karl's pupils contracted slightly: "What??"

"Lord Karl, all systems have been completely infected with a computer virus..."

"The system cannot be restarted."

"It seems our equipment has been hacked..."

A dozen or so researchers were in a flurry of activity.

Countless garbled characters appeared on every computer screen.

The main screen also crashed with a blue screen.

"How could this be??" Karl frowned.

Ye Ge turned to look at him: "What did you just say?"

"..." Carl didn't have time to pay attention to him at this point, and moved closer to the technicians: "Start the virus scan immediately and protect the security of the confidential systems in headquarters."

Technicians: "Yes..."

Looking at the company employees who were busy at work, Ye Ge knew that Karl probably didn't have time to entertain him anymore, so he chuckled and turned to leave.

......

"These individuals are the next targets for the gene company."

Ye Ge placed three photos and three stacks of documents on the ground.

Gao Shenxue, Xia Xiyao, Yu Li, Nangong Qiuyue, Bai Xueling, and Ququ sat cross-legged in a circle around Ye Ge, each picking up the photos and documents to look through them.

"If these people are arrested by the company, they'll be in big trouble, won't they?" Yu Li asked with a worried expression. "Should we save them?"

Ye Ge touched his nose: "To be honest, these people are not related to me, and I really have no interest in whether or not to save them."

"However, I am more interested in the phrase 'Don't let your enemy get what he wants.'"

Gao Shenxue said calmly, "So we have to compete with them for people, right?"

“Yes.” Ye Ge flicked the photos in his hand: “In fact, we’re not just going to take these people, we’re going to take the people from the gene company too.”

Gao Shenxue: "Stealing people from the gene company?"

"At that time, I will bring a few of my company's subordinates to capture these ancient descendants," Ye Ge said. "Among these subordinates, several have had ancient cells transplanted and can use ancient biological armor. I want to capture one or two of them as prisoners so that Xue'er can study them."

Xia Xiyao cautiously looked at Ye Ge: "Xiao Ye... are your subordinates male or female?"

Night Song said, "There are men and women."

Nangong Qiuyue glanced at him and said leisurely, "If you captured two beautiful, cute, sexy and charming female prisoners, were you planning to use your charm to seduce them and tempt them to betray you?"

Night Song: "..."

"What are you thinking about?"

Ye Ge gave her a resentful look: "Do I look like that kind of person?"

Nangong Qiuyue pouted: "You have the nerve to say that? This isn't the first time you've used seduction on an enemy... Ouch! That hurts!"

Ye Ge raised his hand and tapped her on the head. Nangong Qiuyue covered her head with a wronged expression, pouting and rubbing her head.

'That bastard...'

'When it comes to Xue'er and Xiyao, no matter what they say, she wouldn't have the heart to lay a hand on them...'

'This only applies to me...'

Nangong Qiuyue felt a pang of sadness.

She didn't know what was wrong with her lately; she seemed to crave lemons all the time.

Especially when she was with Ye Ge, seeing him interact with other girls made her feel a pang of jealousy... Seeing that he wasn't as gentle with her as he was with other girls also made her feel a pang of jealousy...

"In short, I will act with you then. After that, I will make a plan and let Xue'er assign tasks to each of you."

Ye Ge twirled a pen in his hand, paused for a moment, and then said, "Xue'er just stole a lot of data experience from the gene company's cyberspace. I will absorb this experience and try to advance to the second stage of the Saint Realm. That way, Xiao Li and Qiu Yue can unleash the magic power of the first stage of the Saint Realm when they activate my curse seal."

Ye Ge had a secret premonition.

The chairman of the gene company's desire to collect ancient genes is probably more complex than what he outwardly claims.

We absolutely cannot let them collect all the ancient genes so easily!

and......

Ye Ge opened her system task list.

[Destiny Quest: Ancient Soul]

[Mission Location: Thunder Rift Valley]

[Task details: ???]

【mission rewards:? ? ? 】

[Mission Introduction: In the Thunderous Rift Valley, where thunder reigns eternally, amidst the deafening roar of thunder, the faint call of an ancient spirit lingers, enticing you to venture forth...]

[Mission Requirements: Proceed to Thunder Rift and find the ancient undead that summoned you.]

Ye Ge took a deep breath.

Both are Thunder Rift Valleys, so it's definitely not a coincidence.

The ancient signals detected by the company were correct.

It seems there really is some kind of powerful ancient spirit there!
