Chapter 63: The Strongest Woman in the World
[Are you saying... that the Jade is now in the hands of a girl named 'Sasa'?]
Hearing the voice coming through the headset, You Yifeng slightly lifted the corners of his mouth and nodded at the foggy image in front of him, "That's right, that's exactly it! The Jade that we have always wanted, the one that can open a passage to Alfheim, is now in Sasa's possession."
Upon hearing this, the Abyss Watcher, who was in contact with You Yifeng, coldly snorted: [We've investigated that little girl; she has no power, she's just a pure scholar with a good relationship with Yan Luo. Just because she 'has a good relationship with Yan Luo,' he gave her the Jade? And You Yifeng, haven't you already defected?]
You Yifeng grinned mischievously, "If I really defected, why would I tell you this information?"
The Watcher was silent for a moment, then snorted again: [How do I know if you're being a double agent? And who knows if the information you provided is a trap?]
Faced with the questioning, You Yifeng could only shrug and helplessly say, "If you don't want to send someone over, I can just leak this information to the Faith Organization, and then you'll find out if it's a trap or not."
[And let them hand over the Jade?] the Watcher said faintly.
Hearing this, You Yifeng laughed in irritation, "I ask you to take action, and you won't. I ask you to leak the information to the Faith Organization, and you believe what I said is true. Have you been overdosed, attacking your left brain with your right? If I called you an idiot right now, it'd be complimenting you."
The Watcher fell silent once more.
Before he could respond, You Yifeng waved his hand, "Anyway, I've passed the information to you; what happens next is your choice. Do as you please, this wasn't my task anyway. My task hasn't started yet!"
Having said this, You Yifeng hung up the communication, even shutting off his personal terminal.
Soon after, the angry expression on You Yifeng's face faded, replaced by a relaxed smile as he walked into the next room.
Wu Zechuan sat on a chair in the room, looked up at You Yifeng, and asked with a smile, "How did it go?"
You Yifeng sneered, "Most likely they took the bait, but the ones who bit might be the Faith Organization. Even if we caught them, there's no way to trace it back."
Wu Zechuan shook his head with a smile, "No matter. This was just to sever your ties with the Abyssal Believers formally. Catching some of them in the process is just a bonus."
You Yifeng was previously an Abyssal Believer. Even though he never did any harm, his mission was to begin when the Crimson Abyss Campaign started. Before that, his main goal was to infiltrate Crimson No.2 and ensure he had the ability to sabotage the campaign.
Even now that he has left the Abyssal Believers and switched sides to Yan Luo's team, Wu Zechuan still couldn't fully trust him.
So they staged this act, using Sasa as bait.
Wu Zechuan had sought Sasa's opinion, and she permitted them to use her for fishing, provided they ensured her and the Jade's safety.
To this, Wu Zechuan readily agreed and even promised Sasa that no one in this world could harm her.
At that moment, Wu Zechuan received a message, and he smiled at You Yifeng, "My guest has arrived."
You Yifeng stood up with him, "Is it the person you plan to ask for help to protect Sasa?"
They were not in the Forbidden Demon Abyss at the moment but in the presidential suite of a hotel, a room Wu Zechuan specially booked for hosting guests.
"That's right, with her protection, no one in this world can harm Sasa."
Wu Zechuan opened the door with a smile and bowed to the person standing outside, "Welcome, Ms. Bilukova."
[The World's Strongest Woman] Yulia Ivanovna Bilyukova, a tall and slim elderly lady, even in her old age, her youthful beauty evident in her bone structure, stood at the room's door, wearing a leather jacket vest paired with wide-leg jeans and high-top ankle boots.
Wu Zechuan stepped aside to allow Yulia to enter the room.
Yulia raised her hand to brush her still thick golden waves of hair and walked into the room.
Wu Zechuan closed the door behind her, then quickly stepped ahead to guide her to the living room.
A refrigerated container was placed on the living room table.
Seeing the container, Yulia asked Wu Zechuan, "Is this the so-called 'Saint's Blood'?"
Wu Zechuan shook his head, "Besides the Saint's Blood, there's also the 'Saint's Marrow.' In fact, this is the price for my request for your help."
According to Sasa's research, Yan Luo's bone marrow contains components that can rejuvenate and extend life.
Wu Zechuan personally experienced this.
Although Wu Zechuan was thirty-five, he looked young. However, due to years of battle and injuries, his physical condition was far worse than before.
Yet, after consuming the 'Saint's Marrow,' his health gradually improved, even his energy levels became much better.
You Yifeng, Min Jinglan, are all exemplary cases.
No matter how strong the Engraver, physically, they are ordinary people who also face aging and death.
Therefore, if people knew Yan Luo's bone marrow could rejuvenate and extend life, they would become frenzied.
Not to mention, the elites and nobles, being the most afraid of death, would seek Yan Luo to purchase his marrow. If he refused, they might even attempt to capture him.
Yulia pressed the switch on the refrigerated container, and as the lid opened, two glass tubes containing blood and marrow respectively were revealed.
Even someone as experienced as Yulia couldn't help but breathe shallowly at the sight of these items.
"How does it work?" Yulia looked at Wu Zechuan.
She had once possessed the world's greatest strength, and even now, she remains the strongest Engraver on Blue Star.
But as the years have passed, Yulia has gradually felt her strength waning, unable to match her earlier prowess.
This feeling was uncomfortable, and even though Yulia had almost accepted reality over recent years, there remained a thorn in her heart.
So when Wu Zechuan contacted her, she left her home immediately, traveling all the way to Lingquan City.
Wu Zechuan took out a syringe, first placing the glass tube of Saint's Blood in the syringe before handing it to Yulia.
Yulia grabbed the syringe from Wu Zechuan's hand, immediately aimed it at her body and injected it, then hurriedly switched to the other glass tube, injecting the 'Saint's Marrow' into herself.
The coldness of the blood and marrow caused Yulia to shiver, but whether it was psychological or not, after the injections, Yulia suddenly felt a lot more energized.
Immersed in the changes within her body, Yulia opened her eyes after a moment, looked at Wu Zechuan, and asked, "As part of the deal, you want me to protect a girl?"
Wu Zechuan nodded with a smile, "Yes, a girl named Sasa. We want to use her as bait to lure out the Abyssal Believers—of course, we asked for her consent before planning this, and she agreed."
Yulia's frown relaxed, and she snorted, "Abyssal Believers? Those rats didn't dare show their heads in my active years, and now they dare to pop up, they indeed deserve a beating! Don't worry, I'll handle this."
"Alright, we'll notify you when the plan starts. We hope you enjoy your time in Lingquan City," Wu Zechuan said a parting blessing to Yulia, before leaving the presidential suite with You Yifeng.
In the hallway, You Yifeng asked Wu Zechuan in a low voice, "Isn't this overkill?"
Considering Yulia is [The World's Strongest Woman], handling the Abyssal Believers seems like using a cannon to shoot a mosquito.
Wu Zechuan shook his head, "It's mostly to build goodwill with her. Besides, no one wants Yulia to die early. I hope she can become Blue Star's first modern Sequence One Engraver, as she is currently the closest to that position."
Everything else is false; only strength is real and undeniable.
Blue Star must possess high-tier strength of Sequence One, and Yulia is the most suitable candidate.
Though she is getting older, isn't there still the Saint's Marrow?
Wu Zechuan wanted to see if Yulia, who had completed eleven engravings, could gain the twelfth engraving after consuming the Saint's Blood and Saint's Marrow!
