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

"awesome."

Ququ exclaimed, "They're practically identical..."

They had already witnessed the clones' power.

The short-haired woman and the burly man taken away by the gene company employees were both clones created by Gao Shenxue using technology.

Nangong Qiuyue thought for a moment and asked, "By the way, can these clones be mass-produced?... I mean, if they can be mass-produced, wouldn't it be possible for us to find a Soul Emperor realm original and then create tens of thousands of clones...?"

Gao Shenxue shook her head: "No, these clones don't actually have any combat power. The power, soul power, and physical strength they consume in battle all come from their original body. So the clone and the original body are actually like a receiver and transmitter, except that the original body's power is transmitted to the clone. If two clones are printed, then the original body's power will be divided in two."

Ye Ge immediately understood: "Just like the 'Pseudo-Eye of Extreme Yin' you gave me?"

“Yes,” Gao Shenxue said. “Moreover, these clones only live for ten days. After ten days, their cells will rapidly fail, and they will age and die.”

Ye Ge pondered for a moment and asked, "After cells fail and die, can people tell that they are clones?"

Gao Shenxue said, "No, whether you look at it from the outside or examine it closely, it is the same as the state of aging and death of an ordinary person."

Ye Ge nodded, indicating that she understood.

Ququ gazed at Gao Shenxue and couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

He truly deserves to be called the greatest genius scientist of humankind...

Lord Yege's circle is indeed full of hidden talents...

At that moment, some slight noises came from the tavern lobby outside, as if someone had come to the tavern.

Upon hearing the noise, everyone instinctively fell silent.

Bai Xueling asked, "Are the people from the gene company here?"

Ye Ge calmly replied, "No, it's not."

He was connected to Xingminglong's consciousness and knew that Zhu Yu and the others were still far from arriving.

So who is the person who came?

Ye Ge closed his eyes, used his mental vision to probe the area, and then revealed a strange expression.

How could it be him?

......

Jiang Xiaoming walked into the "Vulture's Nest" tavern.

As soon as he entered, he was stunned by the mess inside the tavern.

what's the situation?

Has someone caused trouble?

Ye Ge, Gao Shenxue, Xia Xiyao, Nangong Qiuyue, Bai Xueling, and Ququ hid in the shadows, silently watching the situation in the tavern lobby.

"How could it be Jiang Xiaoming?" Xia Xiyao asked suspiciously, turning to look at Ye Ge.

Nangong Qiuyue was also taken aback: "Why would this guy come to a place like this?"

Ququ asked, "Do you know him?"

Nangong Qiuyue: "I know him. He used to be in the same class as Ye Ge and the others at the War Academy. He was a chuunibyou idiot."

Gao Shenxue looked at Ye Ge above her head and said softly, "Do you still remember what he said last time?"

"Hmm..." Ye Ge seemed to be deep in thought.

"Night Song, be careful of the gene company!"

This guy......

Is it possible...

Ye Ge narrowed his eyes and used the system to scan Jiang Xiaoming's information panel.

------

【property】:......

Night Song murmured, "Not a descendant of an ancient race..."

"What is Jiang Xiaoming doing?" Xia Xiyao asked curiously.

Jiang Xiaoming was seen searching around the tavern, seemingly looking for someone.

Moreover, he would occasionally talk to himself, as if he were talking to someone.

"Didn't you say that your descendants live in this place?"

Jiang Xiaoming muttered to himself, "I haven't seen anyone here."

He then shrank back, somewhat timidly saying, "Okay, okay, I'll look again. Why are you being so fierce..."

"This delusional idiot, could he really be suffering from delusions?" Nangong Qiuyue said, "Why is he talking to himself?"

Ye Ge narrowed his eyes: "They're here."

Nangong Qiuyue was stunned for a moment: "Huh?"

Night Song: "The people at the company..."

boom!

No sooner had the words left his mouth than the tavern's wooden door was kicked open.

The already rotten wooden door finally detached completely from the frame and fell to the ground with a clatter.

Xing Minglong, Zhu Yu, Su You, Wu Yikun, and Zhi Ling walked in together.

When Jiang Xiaoming saw these people, he was first startled.

Then he muttered to himself, "Are these people your descendants?"

"No..."

Xingminglong looked at Jiang Xiaoming calmly.

Ye Ge thought to herself, "This is bad. There's no time to get Jiang Xiaoming to leave."

Despite all the careful planning, this unexpected factor suddenly appeared...

Su You narrowed her eyes and looked at Jiang Xiaoming with a scrutinizing gaze.

This guy isn't a descendant of the Zhu Yan tribe according to the records.

Where did the owner of this place go?

Su You asked in a very unfriendly tone.

"...Huh?" Jiang Xiaoming shrank back, sensing that these people in front of him were not to be trifled with. "I don't know, I was just passing by..."

"Just passing by?" Su You scrutinized him intently. "Are you human?"

Jiang Xiaoming: "Yes..."

"It's quite amusing that a human superhuman at the Hundred Souls Realm would actually come to this barren, godforsaken place, so far from the human empire." Su You sneered, "What's your relationship with the tavern owner here, that descendant of the Zhu Yan clan?"

Jiang Xiaoming was stunned.

His eyes caught sight of the red and white capsule logos on the robes worn by Su You, Zhu Yu, and others.

I recognized it as the logo of a genetics company.

Jiang Xiaoming's eyes gradually changed, and in an instant, he seemed possessed by a demon, his pupils turning crimson. He said in a low, husky voice, "Are you from the gene company?"
