"Thank you for your teachings, Master!" Although Sun Ju was in a high position, he was still very respectful towards Qin Lang because he knew that without Qin Lang's training, he would just be an ordinary person of the lowest level. He wouldn't even have the chance to break the 60-year lifespan limit.
"Alright, this matter isn't your fault. It's just that you didn't see the situation clearly and foolishly thought that Master was manipulating things behind the scenes. To tell you the truth, although Master is overseeing the seventh level of the universe and is firmly in the position of Great Ruler, the mastermind behind the Life Thieves organization does not come from the seventh level of the universe, but from another mysterious place. Therefore, even Master does not have full confidence in dealing with them. If you think that you can easily defeat them, you are gravely mistaken. Now, listen to me carefully. Although there aren't any major dangers in the seventh level of the universe, the existence of the Life Thieves is a danger that I can't ignore. What you need to do is to deal with these Life Thieves in a low-key manner and stop them from multiplying crazily. As for the mastermind behind the Life Thieves, I'll think of a way to deal with it. " Qin Lang knew Sun Ju's ability. His strength was that he had enough respect for Qin Lang, could listen to Qin Lang, and would faithfully carry out Qin Lang's will. This was enough.
"Yes, Master." Sun Ju hurriedly said. He seemed to be worried that Qin Lang would be unhappy with him, so he continued, "Master, what happened before …"
"I know what kind of person you are. How could I blame you?" Qin Lang gestured for Sun Ju to leave. He naturally wouldn't remove Sun Ju's position because of such a small matter.
Only then did Sun Ju leave with peace of mind.
After that, Qin Lang simply summoned the dark plum old man and asked him about the situation of the Life Thieves. Because the dark plum old man was Qin Lang's hidden chess piece, he was specially set up to deal with the Life Thieves. Naturally, he could provide more information to Qin Lang.
The dark plum old man did not disappoint Qin Lang. He knew that Qin Lang really wanted to know about the situation of the Life Thieves, so he naturally did his best to investigate every single trace of the Life Thieves, and then summarized all the information to Qin Lang, not missing anything.
"Master, I know that with my cultivation and knowledge, I may not be able to see the truth, so I just passed all this information to you. I hope you can see the truth. However, my personal feeling is that the mastermind behind the Life Thieves is not simple. If they're only stealing lifespan, then it's too simple. They can do many things, so why would they only steal lifespan? " The dark plum old man told all the information he knew to Qin Lang, but he didn't come to any conclusion right away. This was because he felt that his cultivation and knowledge couldn't allow him to see the truth.
One had to admit that the dark plum old man's way of doing things was really flawless. He did it better than Sun Ju. The old man was indeed valuable. The information he collected was much more than Sun Ju's Nine Hells of Hell. After browsing through all the information, Qin Lang said, "Hmm, your feeling is right. The Life Thieves are so mysterious. They can do many other things, but they're still stealing lifespan, and without my permission, they're still stealing lifespan from creatures in the seventh level of the universe. They're really hungry. Hmm, it seems that lifespan is really important to them."
Qin Lang obviously didn't mean that the Life Thieves needed lifespan to strengthen themselves. Instead, they should be using lifespan to do other things, which was the "primer" that Qin Lang told Pan Xi. They stole lifespan to do other things, but what could they do with the lifespan of creatures? Longevity? Immortality? After becoming the overlord of an era, one would naturally be able to live forever. In fact, there were even many pills that could extend one's lifespan. There were actually many methods to achieve longevity, so why did one have to choose a method like robbing one's lifespan?
Moreover, the mastermind behind the Life Thief could have obtained longevity without stealing lifespan, so why did he insist on doing so?
"Dark Plum Elder, what do you think the Life Stealers are doing with their lifespan?" Qin Lang asked casually. It was a brainstorming session.
"This … Stealing lifespan is naturally to increase the lifespan of others, but … the mastermind behind the Life Stealer must have a very high cultivation, so why would he need lifespan? As for making the Vitality Pill and selling it to others for profit, it seems to have formed an industry, but would the person behind the Life Thief care about such profits? " The dark plum old man could tell that there was more to this than met the eye. "Exalted Sovereign, I don't think the Life Stealers themselves are that scary, but the person behind them is extraordinary. I really don't know what they're doing with their lifespan. “
"Well … it's okay if you don't know, because I don't know either." Qin Lang said to the dark plum old man, "Originally, even if the lifespan of the beings and cultivators in the seventh level of the universe was taken away, it should belong to me. But these Life Stealers are doing something else with their lifespan, so I'm quite curious as to what else they're doing with it."
"Indeed, people like me don't lack lifespan, but if I have someone I care about, I don't mind saving some lifespan for them. It's just that at my level of cultivation, there's almost no one I care about anymore. Moreover, the mastermind of the Life Stealers has stolen so much lifespan, so he can't possibly need it … Strange? Caries? Scratching the surface of the scum?
Hiding from the First Silkworm Sleigh Ji Mang? Hurrying to the Xiezhi Garden? Caries?
"It doesn't matter. As long as we know the crux of the matter, we'll be able to find some clues." Qin Lang said to the dark plum old man, "Very good, you've already provided me with a lot of information. Now, I'll learn something from this information. No matter how sly the mastermind of the Life Stealers is, he should have left some clues for us."
The dark plum old man nodded and quietly retreated, no longer disturbing Qin Lang's contemplation.
