Taijiang International Airport.
Yue Heng picked up Li Yaoyang, who had just arrived from Hong Kong, outside the passenger passage.
Li Yaoyang was Lai Shu's illegitimate son. He had just turned 13 years old and was a handsome young man.
He was also Lai Shu's favorite child among Lai Shu's many children.
However, in order to protect Li Yaoyang, Lai Shu did not allow him to return to the family and expose his identity to the public.
Yue Heng had met Li Yaoyang in Hong Kong and promised Lai Shu that he would give Li Yaoyang a chance to become a superhuman.
Lai Shu called Yue Heng two days ago and sent his son to Taijiang today.
Li Yaoyang bowed respectfully to Yue Heng and said, "Yue Shao, nice to meet you. Please take care of me in the future."
Before leaving Hong Kong, Lai Shu had told him to listen to Yue Heng's arrangements when he arrived in Taijiang. He had to treat Yue Heng like a family member.
He could not be rude at all.
Li Yaoyang remembered it in his heart.
"Just call me Brother Xiaoheng."
Yue Heng patted his shoulder and asked, "Have you booked a hotel?"
"Big brother has arranged a place for us."
The middle-aged man beside him quickly said, "Yue Shao, thank you."
This middle-aged man was called Uncle Zhong. He was a brother that Lai Shu met when he was roaming the underworld. They had a very close relationship.
However, he was not very lucky. His hamstring was cut and he became a cripple, so he left the underworld early.
He had been working in Lai Shu's company since then.
Lai Shu trusted Uncle Zhong a lot, so he sent this childless brother to follow Li Yaoyang to Taijiang.
He would help take care of the latter.
Uncle Li had put in a lot of effort for his youngest son. He had bought a house in Taijiang long ago.
He had bought it in Taijiang and put it under Li Yaoyang's name.
"Alright then."
Yue Heng brought the two of them to his Jeep and drove them to their residence.
Li Yaoyang's house was located in a high-end residential area in Taijiang East City. It was a three-story townhouse.
This house was worth tens of millions of yuan. Even if Uncle Li didn't give Li Yaoyang any more assets in the future, the money he would get from selling the house would be enough for him to live a carefree life.
The house had been renovated, and it had all the necessary furniture and appliances. Moreover, the property management had found someone to clean it beforehand, so they could move in directly.
Yue Heng helped the two of them settle down and then took them to the nearby shopping mall to purchase daily necessities.
Li Yaoyang and Uncle Zhong were very grateful.
After Yue Heng had dinner with the two of them, he went back to his house.
He called Lai Shu.
"Yue Shao, thank you so much."
Lai Shu thanked him from the bottom of his heart. "Yaoyang told me that you took good care of him. Actually, you didn't have to go through so much trouble. He can take care of himself, and he has Zhong's help. There won't be any problems."
Yue Heng smiled. "You're welcome. Since he's here in Taijiang, I'll definitely help him if I can. Also …"
He changed the topic. "As for your master's descendant, I don't have any news yet."
In addition to giving Li Yaoyang a chance to awaken, Yue Heng also promised Lai Shu to help him find Lai Shu's master's descendant.
He would return the Xuande Censor to its rightful owner.
If he couldn't find it, the Xuande Censor would belong to Yue Heng.
Although the Xuande Censor was a very good item, Yue Heng didn't have any greedy thoughts about it.
Mystical items were related to the power of cause and effect. The more one had, the better.
If he wanted mystical items, he could get eight or ten of them from the Metropolitan Museum of Art. It wouldn't be a problem at all.
From the beginning, Yue Heng had used Xiao Tianquan's connections to collect relevant information from official channels.
However, there was no news so far.
After all, it had been a few decades. The probability of finding a target in the vast sea of people with just a few clues was undoubtedly very low.
"It's okay."
Lai Shu was very calm. "Let's do our best and leave it to fate."
In fact, he had already asked a Chinese law firm to investigate, but they didn't find any useful clues either.
He knew that there was little hope.
Lai Shu entrusted the Xuande Censor to Yue Heng because he wanted to use this valuable antique to exchange for Yue Heng's help and care for his youngest son.
To be honest, if he really found his master's descendant and returned the Xuande Censor to its rightful owner …
It would be awkward.
Yue Heng was also well aware of this.
The next morning, he brought Li Yaoyang to the Jiangnan Abnormal Affairs Administration.
In the past half a year, Yue Heng had not only provided the Administration with very useful information about the Yue Family's Body-strengthening Technique and mutant research, but he had also helped the Administration capture Super criminals.
Because of this, he was rewarded many times by the Foreignland Authority, including three great merits!
The great merits given by the Administration were not just in the category of honor. They could be used to exchange for substantial benefits.
For example, the chance to awaken!
A great merit could be exchanged for a chance to awaken.
Although Yue Heng didn't need it himself, it was best to give it to someone else.
On the way to the Administration, Yue Heng told Li Yaoyang about the things to take note of in the "Awakening Test".
The experience he provided all came from his previous life.
In theory, as long as one followed it seriously, the probability of awakening could increase.
In fact, many people thought that this was metaphysics.
If one didn't have the potential or talent to become a Super, it would be useless no matter how well prepared one was.
It was meaningless.
However, Yue Heng felt that these experiences were still useful.
Because the application was approved in advance, Yue Heng took Li Yaoyang through many security checks and smoothly entered the underground research institute.
They stood in front of the room specially used for the "Awakening Test".
This room was built with a special alloy. It was said that it cost more than a few hundred million and its defense level was higher than a bank vault.
The thick metal walls could isolate the energy emitted by the Stars Family to a large extent.
It also sealed the dissipated energy in the secret room.
The researchers believed that this would help increase the probability of awakening a Super.
Yue Heng knew that this method was actually useless. Or maybe it was only a little bit useful.
However, he couldn't interfere with the work of the Superpower Research Institute. At most, he could provide some useful information at the appropriate time to help them take fewer detours.
Moreover, he couldn't exceed the limit, otherwise, it would be impossible to explain.
Yue Heng said to Li Yaoyang, "Good luck."
Li Yaoyang nodded.
It could be seen that the thirteen-year-old boy was very nervous at the moment. He pursed his lips in silence and subconsciously clenched his fists.
He knew that the room he was about to enter would determine his future and fate to a large extent!
