The clone Li Shentan was dead.
Just as Li Shentan had speculated, as long as this iron fool went to look for Ren Xiaosu, he would definitely die. There was no doubt about it.
It was not that the clone Li Shentan was not powerful. According to Li Shentan himself, even if he was just a defective product, he was still a clone of Li Shentan, so he would definitely be much more powerful than other supernatural beings.
When Li Shentan said this, Zhou Yingxue kept rolling her eyes at the side. She wondered how such a narcissistic person could become friends with her master.
However, no matter how much Vanilla, Zhou Yingxue, and the others rolled their eyes, what Li Shentan said was the truth.
When the clone Li Shentan came to their place, he had subtly given them a mental hint that they did not even realize it.
Therefore, most of the supernatural beings in this world would fail miserably if they encountered the clone Li Shentan.
Of course, most of these supernatural beings did not include Ren Xiaosu.
If a master hypnotist were to encounter a person who was not afraid of hypnosis, then that master hypnotist would instantly become a super infantryman. All of his outstanding abilities would lose their effect.
Moreover, the clone Li Shentan paled in comparison to Ren Xiaosu when it came to scheming against others.
A move like stabbing someone in the back was definitely not something a decent person could come up with.
Actually, the moment the clone Li Shentan appeared, Ren Xiaosu already realized that something was not right. That was why he used the typhoon and magic tricks to test the waters.
First of all, Li Shentan would definitely not hypnotize him, nor would he hypnotize Yang Xiaojin.
Second, just as Ren Xiaosu had said, Li Shentan's craziness was hidden in his bones. Usually, he would get along with others like a normal person. But as long as he spoke, you would feel that his craziness was like the surging waves in the deep sea of his heart.
Although Ren Xiaosu and Li Shentan did not interact much with each other, nor did they spend much time together, for some reason, Ren Xiaosu felt he understood him.
Just like how Li Shentan also understood him.
However, when Ren Xiaosu looked at the clone Li Shentan in front of him, he was thinking, 'How did this clone Li Shentan appear?
Was he cloned by the Pyro Company? Who else did the Pyro Company clone? '
Ren Xiaosu did not have a reliable source of information, so he could not make any further deductions. He could only be sure that if they continued venturing deeper into the Sacred Mountains, they would definitely encounter another existence like Li Shentan's clone. In fact, it would be even more troublesome to deal with than Li Shentan.
He looked at the Sacred Mountains. The light of dawn had just peeked over from the top of the mountain. No matter what was inside, he had to go in and have a look.
At this moment, when Ren Xiaosu saw the others were still in a deep sleep, he woke Yang Xiaojin up and explained to her what had happened.
Yang Xiaojin thought for a moment and said, "It's very normal for Li Shentan's DNA to be stolen. The Li Consortium did not guard the psychiatric hospital strictly at that time, so it would be a piece of cake for the Pyro Company to steal his DNA."
"Mhm." Ren Xiaosu nodded. "I just don't know who else they cloned."
Yang Xiaojin looked calmly at Ren Xiaosu. "Do you not know, or are you unwilling to believe it?"
Ren Xiaosu fell silent.
"The two people who were closest to becoming gods during the Era of Rise of Gods were actually very close to you. And coincidentally, they both came out of the psychiatric hospital." Yang Xiaojin looked at Ren Xiaosu. "I know you're avoiding this question, but face it squarely. The Pyro Company's method of cloning supernatural beings is definitely not limitless. Otherwise, you'd be dazzled by the number of superpowers a T3 combatant can display. The number of DNA samples they have is much greater than you can imagine."
Yang Xiaojin continued, "So if they were to choose a few people to activate each other's superpowers, they would definitely choose the strongest."
Who was the strongest? In this world, there were only a few powerhouses who had been proven by time. Among them, Li Shentan and Chen Wudi were the best.
Since the Pyro Company had Li Shentan's DNA samples, they would definitely have Chen Wudi's as well.
Although the two of them were not in the same psychiatric hospital, there was no need to take any chances. If the Pyro Company could steal one psychiatric hospital, they could steal another ten.
Yang Xiaojin could be considered the person who understood Ren Xiaosu the best. So she knew very well why Ren Xiaosu did not dare to make a guess.
Ren Xiaosu sighed and said, "I suddenly feel a little disgusted with the Pyro Company. In the past, everyone always said the Pyro Company violated scientific ethics. I even wondered what scientific ethics were. In this world, some people don't even have ethics, so why would they care about scientific ethics? But it wasn't until this happened to me that I realized how disgusting this kind of unscrupulous research is. "
To the Pyro Company, they were only pursuing a new field of science. But to people like Ren Xiaosu and the others, it felt like a small part of their hearts had been tainted.
"Let's not think about that for now." Ren Xiaosu moved Li Shentan's clone to the center of the campsite. Then he gave Yang Xiaojin a look and pretended to be hypnotized together.
Without any external interference, the others slept until noon before waking up at the same time.
Immediately after, Cheng Yu's puzzled voice came from the campsite. "Isn't that Li Shentan? Who killed him?"
Ren Xiaosu said sleepily, "Eh, was it you guys who did it?"
Initially, Ren Xiaosu had wanted to move Li Shentan's clone in front of Cheng Yu. Then when he woke up and opened his eyes, he would see this big surprise.
After all, Cheng Yu had been trying to disgust him along the way.
But when Ren Xiaosu thought about it, he felt he should not do things in such a bad way. Their relationship had not deteriorated to such an extent anyway. After the expedition to the Sacred Mountains was over, they would all go their separate ways and might not see each other again for the rest of their lives.
Everyone in the campsite looked at Li Shentan's corpse in bewilderment.
Cheng Yu subconsciously checked his cell phone to see if his boss had provided him with any important information. However, there was no signal at all.
As Li Shentan did not try to hide his tracks, many of the people present recognized what Li Shentan looked like. If news of this got out, it would probably cause another worldwide sensation. The legendary Demon Whisperer was actually dead?
But they did not even know who did it. Everyone had fallen asleep and missed out on such an important matter?
"So it was Li Shentan who did it when we all slept until noon?" Cheng Yu wondered, "But who here has the ability to kill him?"
Cheng Yu's assistant probed, "Is it possible that he committed suicide?"
Ren Xiaosu stood next to Li Shentan's corpse and said with certainty, "I've seen the wound. He was probably stabbed in the back with a knife. He wouldn't be able to do it himself, so it must be one of you!"
