Zhou Yang saw the situation and felt anxious. Ye Hao looked at them and sneered, "You really don't know?"

He Hua replied with a hum, and Ji Zhengxue nodded.

Only Zhou Yang hesitated, torn about whether to speak. Once he spoke, it would be tantamount to betraying God by divulging internal information, and he knew well how powerful God's influence was. Just amongst those they knew, there were no less than twenty people stronger than them.

After holding out for a while, Zhou Yang shook his head and said he didn't know.

Ye Hao laughed, handling the Desert Eagle as if it might accidentally discharge...

"Bang!"

The bullet was fired inches away from Zhou Yang's heart, passing through him and carrying a mist of blood out the back.

Zhou Yang clutched his chest, feeling a warm gush of blood from the wound. His face was filled with terror; he didn't want to die! Truly, he didn't want to die, but the pain in his chest prevented him from utilizing his Inner Breath to resist. He could only watch helplessly as blood flowed from his chest...

"What, what do you want?" He Hua saw Ye Hao fire again and stood up despite the pain in his legs, shouting.

"Not knowing is just not knowing. Do you have to kill someone for that?" Ji Zhengxue stood up and snorted.

Ye Hao blew the smoke off the barrel of the Desert Eagle, smiled, and looked at Zhou Yang, then prepared to fire a second shot.

This was Ye Hao's act to show He Hua and Ji Zhengxue, making them think he was about to fire a second shot, so they'd find a way to stop him.

Ye Hao would then use their words to question Zhou Yang about the relationship between the Fierce Tiger, the General, and the Prince.

"What are you doing?" He Hua stood in front of Zhou Yang, blocking him and shouting.

"Nothing much. Just dealing with someone who doesn't want to cooperate, so it's no loss to kill them." Ye Hao said softly with a smile.

"Are you saying Zhou Yang knows the Falcon and the Fierce Tiger?" Ji Zhengxue asked, frowning.

Ye Hao didn't respond, just nodded.

Ji Zhengxue turned his head to Zhou Yang and asked, "Zhou Yang, do you really know the Fierce Tiger or the Falcon? If you do, just say it! We're just meat on the chopping block now; what else can we do but cooperate?"

Zhou Yang nodded with difficulty. At this point, Ye Hao approached and rubbed a few spots on Zhou Yang's body.

After being tapped by Ye Hao, Zhou Yang felt the pain lessen, and even his breathing became normal.

He quickly said, "I know Fierce Tiger. A few days ago, I arrived at a new base and met a rather rugged young man; he was the Fierce Tiger. I saw that his build was similar to mine, both of us being the burly type, so I gave him some guidance. He told me the General's identity is very mysterious, and the General has the authority to deploy many generals in Huaxia."

"Is the person giving you orders from the new base, the one the Fierce Tiger mentioned as the General?" Ye Hao seemed to catch some useful information.

"I don't know. We haven't seen the General or the Prince. The person who gave us orders was a refined middle-aged man. He told us to go to Peng City to capture Lin Tian. But once we arrived in Peng City, a new task assigner appeared. He was the Prince's son, the Prince, and he instructed us to capture Lin Tian and take him away." Zhou Yang said, his face pale.

Hearing this, Ye Hao pondered deeply. The situation was getting more complicated. Initially, the General wanted Ye Hao dead because Ye Hao had repeatedly thwarted the General's efforts. But gradually, it escalated to the Prince personally wanting to capture Lin. However, what puzzled Ye Hao was that the one orchestrating He Hua and the other two was the Prince's son, who coincidentally instructed people to attempt capturing Lin only after Lin Tian had barely reached Lin Ruyu's villa.

Could there be a hidden meaning behind this? Or what does the Prince intend?

The more Ye Hao thought about it, the more suspicious it seemed. Given Half-Innate capabilities and two National Martial Arts twelfth-degree strengths, they could have easily gone to the Tianfu Group to take Lin Tian. Instead, they waited near Lin Ruyu's villa to act.

Wasn't this obviously a redundant move meant to trap the three of them?

Of course! If the opposing side didn't know about Su Chenhong, the old man at Lin Ruyu's villa, that would be one thing. But if they did know, does it imply the Prince genuinely didn't want to capture Lin Tian?

"Besides capturing Lin Tian, do you have any other tasks?" Not understanding for the moment, Ye Hao shifted to other questions.

"No more." Zhou Yang nearly collapsed, feeling faint.

Ye Hao stepped forward to stop the bleeding and then had the eighth-generation system use electricity to repair the injury, with the wound healing at a visible rate.

He Hua and Ji Zhengxue were dumbfounded by Ye Hao's means. They only saw Ye Hao emitting a faint green substance from his hand. They didn't know what this green substance was, but Ye Hao used it rapidly to heal Zhou Yang's body.

In just ten minutes, Zhou Yang could stand up.

Ye Hao said, "I saved you this time because you cooperated. If you hadn't, killing you would have been easy."

With the backing of Su Chenhong, the old man, Ye Hao played both carrot and stick with Zhou Yang.

Zhou Yang nodded, knowing the current circumstances were beyond his rebellion's capability. Not to mention, Ye Hao's ruthless and direct nature made him fear greatly.

Ye Hao turned his head to He Hua and asked, "Tell me about God's headquarters' power and the strength in other regions!"

He Hua frowned, looking troubled at Ye Hao.

Ye Hao snorted, "Looking to evade the question under my hand?"

Ye Hao's cold snort made He Hua's heart skip a beat.

Even though he was a Half-Innate presence, one had to consider where such presence was applied. Ye Hao, supported by Su Chenhong, would undoubtedly act against them if they dared say a wrong word.

"I'm not very familiar with God either, only knowing it's a newly risen power, roughly ten years old. Initially, it was a gathering force of Loose Cultivators but slowly evolved to focus on scientific research. There are some called reformed people, and others involve turning living people into biochemical entities." He Hua said.

"Turning living people into biochemical entities?" Ye Hao furrowed his brows; such methods were too heinous.

Ye Hao just didn't know if the biochemical entities they studied were truly biochemical entities in the literal sense or virus-infected ones.

"What are the characteristics of these biochemical entities?"

"Entirely green, muscularly swollen. If a regular person is submerged to become a biochemical entity, they'll gain the strength of a National Martial Arts first or second degree. The higher the original strength, the stronger they become after submersion." He Hua explained.

"How many were submerged in total? How many live people were used for research?" Ye Hao's eyes gleamed; this force was too extreme, using living people for biochemical research, absolutely inhumane.

"It seems over ten thousand died, with a thousand or so successful ones. We don't know the exact figures." He Hua felt uneasy under Ye Hao's sharp gaze.

"Bastards!" Ye Hao exclaimed upon hearing He Hua's words, slamming his palms against the table. (To be continued.
