Thus, Zhang Bin feigned understanding and asked, "Who contacted you?"

"It was Dr. Hanbing Yun herself who got in touch with us. She video called us. We believe she wouldn't deceive us," Ma Rufei said, a bit awkwardly. After all, he was well aware that Zhang Bin and Hanbing Yun were at odds, harboring a great deal of animosity toward each other.

"What? She contacted you personally?"

Zhang Bin smelled a conspiracy and immediately had Tutu call Zhao Dawei. "Dawei, is the country planning to invest heavily in researching Genetically Enhanced Humans?"

"Nothing of the sort," Zhao Dawei replied. "All the world's major powers are currently discussing whether to halt research on Genetically Enhanced Humans because it goes against the natural order. In fact, we suspect their defects are unavoidable. Even Xiao Hui hasn't been able to correct them. Such an advanced civilization as Xing Yue had no solution, so how could we? However, a final decision hasn't been made yet."

Damn it… This is definitely a conspiracy targeting me. Has Hanbing Yun gone mad? Is she trying to bait me into coming to the Capital City to find her? Has she laid a trap for me?

Zhang Bin sneered inwardly but kept his composure, exchanging a few pleasantries with Zhao Dawei before hanging up.

He then brought the two of them into his study and recounted everything that happened during his last visit to the U.S. Biotech Base. He even showed them a documentary on his computer about the extinction of the Xing Yue civilization, played the footage of Jack's cannibalism, and finally revealed that the world's major powers had already killed nearly all Genetically Enhanced Humans, with only a few still on the run.

The two men listened with their mouths agape, their faces filled with terror as their bodies trembled uncontrollably.

"Hanbing Yun… why is she so vicious? Why would she target us like this?"

"We never offended her, did we? Is she getting revenge on us just because we helped you at the Hero Auction?" Ma Rufei and Chen Chaoyue asked one after another, both furious and alarmed.

"You don't need to guess why she wants to harm you. Just tell me, do you still want to undergo Genetic Enhancement? Do you want to spend the rest of your lives locked away in prison?" Zhang Bin asked coldly.

"Of course not! We're not idiots!"

Both men wore looks of lingering fear as they shook their heads as vigorously as rattle-drums.

Immediately, they became utterly despondent, as if they had lost their souls, unable to muster any spirit at all. They had truly believed there was a way to become powerful quickly and gain a long life without any sacrifice. Little did they know, it was all just a trap designed to kill them. Just like that, their beautiful dream of becoming powerful was shattered.

"Sigh, we're just mortals after all. We only get to live for a few decades. We might as well go chase women," Ma Rufei sighed.

"A beautiful dream is still just a dream. Now that we're awake, reality feels even more miserable," Chen Chaoyue added somberly.

"If you join my Taiqing Sect, you can become powerful quickly," Zhang Bin said suddenly, his words landing like a clap of thunder.

After such a long period of cultivation, Zhang Bin now had a deeper understanding of its essence. His comprehension of the Qingmu Longevity Technique and the Pure Heart Mystique had also deepened. The Qingmu Longevity Technique was meant for Cultivators. The Pure Heart Mystique, on the other hand, was for those unable to practice the Qingmu Longevity Technique. The reason they couldn't was, of course, because they hadn't taken a Wisdom Pill. After all, refining a Wisdom Pill was incredibly difficult and required a vast number of herbs. Of course, a Cultivator practicing the Qingmu Longevity Technique could simultaneously practice the Pure Heart Mystique for even better results.

Therefore, if he taught the Pure Heart Mystique to these two, they could grow strong rapidly by cultivating diligently, training their bodies using Earth's methods, and taking some special elixirs.

He had also inquired with Gao Si and learned that before Xuanwu Star invented technology to rapidly enhance spiritual power, most people only cultivated the Pure Heart Mystique. Only extraordinarily rare geniuses or those with powerful backgrounds could obtain a Wisdom Pill and thus cultivate the Qingmu Longevity Technique.

Of course, cultivating the Pure Heart Mystique also required talent. For ordinary people—those without Special Abilities—cultivating it was largely ineffective, at most making them feel more energetic.

But for Superpower Users, it was a different story. Their progress was incredibly fast, and they might even develop new abilities. This was why Liu Ruomei's Mind-Reading Ability had advanced by leaps and bounds after she started cultivating the Pure Heart Mystique. Her Mind-Reading Ability had now reached a formidable level; she could even read the minds of Cultivators at the Late Stage of the Qi Sea Realm. Before, her ability had been so weak it was practically negligible.

Ma Rufei and Chen Chaoyue were Class A Superpower Users, meaning their talent was vastly superior to Liu Ruomei's. Their cultivation progress would naturally be much faster, and the probability of them developing new abilities was far greater. They could indeed become powerful very quickly.

Bringing them into the Taiqing Sect would also rapidly increase the sect's strength. He knew these two inside and out, so there would be no problem inducting them and no need to worry about other issues.

"How is that possible?"

Their initial delight was quickly replaced by utter disbelief. This completely subverted everything they thought they knew.

Zhang Bin went on to explain the wonders of the Pure Heart Mystique, detailing Liu Ruomei's progress. He concluded seriously, "If you can cultivate the Pure Heart Mystique to its limit, your spiritual power will become terrifyingly strong. In the future, even when your body withers with age, your spirit can endure. At the very least, you could be reincarnated. In fact, Earth's Buddhist Techniques have a similar effect, but you simply haven't had the opportunity to learn them. However, I can guarantee that the Pure Heart Mystique is an absolutely top-tier secret technique for cultivating Special Abilities, on par with the most elite Buddhist Techniques, if not much better."

THUD. The two men dropped to their knees, shouting excitedly, "Greetings, Master!"

"There's no need for that. I am accepting you on my master's behalf, so you will be my junior martial brothers," Zhang Bin said. He didn't want to turn two men who felt like brothers into his disciples; the thought was just too strange.

"But didn't you accept Master Tian as your disciple? If we become your junior martial brothers, doesn't that make us his martial uncles?"

"Yeah, is that okay? Master Tian will kill us!"

Strange expressions crept onto their faces.

"What are you dilly-dallying for? Do you want to join my Taiqing Sect or not?" Zhang Bin said, his face stern.

"Yes, yes, we do! Greetings, Senior Brother!" the two shouted, ecstatic.

Thus, Zhang Bin officially accepted them into the Taiqing Sect. He transmitted the Pure Heart Mystique to them and instructed them to cultivate diligently.

That very night, Zhang Bin piloted the Flying Saucer and headed toward the Capital City, his heart filled with murderous intent. He couldn't rest easy until he had eliminated Hanbing Yun, a woman as treacherous as a viper.
