One person said: "If I make you a holy child, will you be granted godhood through the art of Gu

"Where is the Taiqing Xuandian now?" Jiang Mo suddenly asked.

Ruan Feng was taken aback, then smiled wryly and said, "Nobody knows."

"Some say that the cultivation techniques have been scattered throughout the world of supernatural beings."

"Some say it's being kept secret by the company, while others say it's been destroyed."

Jiang Mo nodded, seemingly unsurprised by the answer: "What is your purpose in coming to Nathan Island?"

“I…I’m here to study the sacred tree,” Ruan Feng replied somewhat nervously.

"The divine tree contains immense energy, and I wish to use its power to extend my lifespan."

"What kind of collaboration do you have with Qu Tong?"

"Qu Tong wants to use the energy of the divine tree to enhance the strength of the extraordinary people in Biyou Village."

"We have reached an agreement to jointly study the secrets of the sacred tree."

"She provided protection, and I was in charge of the research."

Jiang Mo looked at Ruan Feng quietly, and after a moment said calmly, "Lying brings no benefit."

Upon hearing this, Ruan Feng trembled, cold sweat instantly beading on his forehead: "I...I didn't lie!"

"Oh? So you should also tell us about being controlled by Behemoth?"

Ruan Feng's pupils contracted sharply, and his legs gave way, causing him to collapse to his knees: "You...how did you know?"

"Looks like it's true." Jiang Mo sneered. "What did Behemoth ask you to do?"

Ruan Feng knew there was no point in hiding it anymore, so he could only tell the truth: "They...they made me study the weaknesses of the divine tree."

"Then we'll design a special toxin that can completely destroy the divine tree."

"Why?"

"Behemoth's true purpose is not to control the Tree of God, but to destroy it."

"They believe that the existence of the divine tree maintains a certain balance in the world of superhumans."

"And once this balance is broken, the world will descend into chaos."

"In the chaos, they can seize the opportunity to take control of the world and reshape order."

After listening, Jiang Mo nodded thoughtfully: "So, Behemoth retreated yesterday."

"Is it because they believe the toxins have begun to take effect and the sacred tree is about to die?"

Ruan Feng looked at Jiang Mo in surprise: "You...you even know this?"

“No, that was just a guess,” Jiang Mo said calmly, “but judging from your reaction, it seems I was right.”

Ruan Feng knelt on the ground, looking utterly exhausted: "Yes, the toxins have begun to erode the core of the divine tree."

"According to calculations, the sacred tree will die completely in three days at most, beyond saving."

"Then you may be disappointed," Jiang Mo said calmly.

"We have removed some of the toxins from the sacred tree, and it is currently recovering."

"What?!" Ruan Feng was so shocked he almost jumped up. "This is impossible! That toxin was specially developed by me."

"How could something capable of blocking the divine tree's self-healing ability be eliminated?"

Jiang Mo didn't explain, but simply asked, "What is Behemoth's next plan after the Divine Tree's death?"

Ruan Feng gave a wry smile: "They want to collect the remaining energy of the divine tree to create a special medicine."

"This potion can grant ordinary people superpowers, turning them into their puppets."

"Then they could possess an army of superhumans and launch an attack on the entire world."

“I understand.” Jiang Mo nodded, then turned to Zhang Chulan and Feng Baobao. “Is there anything else you want to ask?”

Zhang Chulan paused for a moment, then shook his head.

I just heard something about my grandfather.

His emotions had not yet calmed down, and for a moment he didn't know what to ask.

Feng Baobao then looked directly at Ruan Feng: "Can I get my memories back?"

Ruan Feng looked at Feng Baobao and sighed, "Theoretically, it's possible."

"The company must be using a special sealing technique."

"Once a way to unblock it is found, your memories will be restored."

"But this sealing technique is extremely complex, and there are very few people in the world who can break it."

"As far as I know, Wugensheng might be one of them."

Jiang Mo glanced at Feng Baobao and said softly, "The memories aren't completely gone, they're just deeply buried. They'll surface naturally at the appropriate time."

After saying that, he turned to Ruan Feng: "One last question, where is Behemoth's stronghold?"

Ruan Feng hesitated for a moment, but under Jiang Mo's gaze, he finally spoke up.

"On a small island west of Nathan Island, there is a hidden base, one of Behemoth's headquarters."

"Very good, I will remember your cooperation."

Jiang Mo nodded, then looked at Zhang Chulan and Feng Baobao, "Let's go."

The three turned to leave, but Ruan Feng suddenly spoke up: "Wait! You...you're just letting me go like that?"

Jiang Mo stopped and turned to look at him: "When did I say I was going to let you go?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Ruan Feng felt a sudden dizziness.

Then she knew nothing more, collapsed to the ground, and fell into a coma.

Zhang Chulan stared in astonishment at this scene: "Big brother, what's going on...?"

"He was one of the Thirty-Six Thieves and also colluded with Behemoth, committing numerous crimes."

“Let the company handle it,” Jiang Mo said calmly.

"Let's go. The situation with the sacred tree is more serious than I thought. We need to get back as soon as possible."

Zhang Chulan and Feng Baobao exchanged a glance and followed Jiang Mo out of the cave.

Outside the cave, Qu Tong and Ma Xianhong were still waiting.

Upon seeing the three of them emerge, Qu Tong immediately stepped forward and respectfully asked, "Mr. Jiang, have you... finished dealing with things over there?"

Jiang Mo glanced at her and nodded: "Ruan Feng has been apprehended. It seems your cooperation with him will have to end."

Upon hearing this, Qu Tong's expression changed slightly, but she quickly regained her composure: "I understand. What should we do next...?"

"Go back. The healing of the sacred tree has begun, and I need your assistance."

Upon hearing this, Qu Tong felt as if she had been granted a pardon and quickly nodded, "Yes! We will definitely cooperate fully!"

The group returned to the central area of ​​Nathan Island.

Jiang Mo contacted the Queen of Nathan Island directly and informed her about Ruan Feng and Behemoth's situation.

The Queen was shocked upon hearing this: "Behemoth actually wants to destroy the divine tree?! Have they gone mad?"

“For those who pursue power, madness is the norm,” Jiang Mo said calmly.

"Now, I need you to speed up the collection of materials; the situation with the Divine Tree is worse than I anticipated."

Upon hearing this, the Queen immediately nodded: "I have already dispatched my most elite team to collect it."

"We should have news soon."

Just as they were talking, a Nathan guard rushed over, looking panicked: "Your Majesty! Something terrible has happened! Behemoth's men are back!"

"This time they're attacking from the west with a large armed force!"

"What?!" the Queen exclaimed in shock. "Didn't they just retreat? How come they're back?"
