My Pretty Campus Queen-Chapter 693 - 692: Visiting the Xu Family

However, they were also deceived by appearances. In fact, the real purpose of their visit was not this, as the Huaxia saying goes: "The intentions of a drunken man are not in the wine, but in the scenery."

After Chu Jingyun arrived at the Xu Family, Xu Kan quickly got wind of the news and went to the door early to greet him. Actually, Chu Jingyun’s visit this time was not informed to Xu Kan and the others.

Although Chu Jingyun is very powerful, he doesn’t like to flaunt his abilities. He acts swiftly and decisively, which is his professional quality as an expert technician.

"Young Master Chu, you’re here. Why didn’t you notify me in advance? I could have come to meet you," Xu Kan said respectfully.

"Heh, no need to go through such trouble, Elder Xu."

Having just arrived, Chu Jingyun didn’t want to make a big fuss. His master had instructed him that although the Chu Family is among the five wealthiest families in Capital City, they still shouldn’t do things excessively. After all, South Sea City is someone else’s domain, and you shouldn’t show off, lest you offend people everywhere.

Therefore, Chu Jingyun dared not act recklessly. Xu Kan is considered a prominent figure in South Sea City; according to his investigation, the Xu Family used to be a big name in South Sea, with significant strength.

"We must welcome Young Master Chu. You rarely come by, and it’s an honor for our Xu Family."

Xu Kan was aware of the Chu Family’s status, and Chu Jingyun was also a master, having unique skills in network hacking, pharmaceutical research, and more.

In the early days, he heard that the Bone Marrow Cleansing Pill was researched by the Li Tianyou group, and this drug is now for sale with good market performance.

Chu Jingyun looked at Xu Kan’s hospitality and merely smiled without speaking.

However, Chu Jingyun is the type who likes research, and in fact, has a rather malicious heart. Despite being busy, the things he does are mostly self-serving at others’ expense, like hacking theft, invading websites, or foreign bank systems.

His most sinister act lies in researching the "Immortal" drug, attempting to use these people to control the entire cultivation world.

Therefore, Chu Jingyun is very satisfied with his Yellow Dao three-star strength. Although it’s hard to level up, he knows that with these Immortals, any Ancient Martial Cultivator is nothing.

Currently, he and Dr. Gao have developed Death God No. 1. This Death God is non-toxic and harmless and has only Yellow Dao two-star strength, but its body resistance matches that of a fifth-level cultivator.

The key is that this Death God No. 1, although an experimental subject, is a real person.

This real person was not randomly chosen but a murderer. This person was secretly bribed by Chu Jingyun to have a sniper use a blank bullet, survived, and was taken away.

This way, this person became someone Chu Jingyun bought, originally a dying person with no rights.

As an experimental subject, Chu Jingyun must ensure this person willingly tests the drug; otherwise, it might not fully exert its effects.

And the brilliance of Death God No. 1 lies in this: not only can it fully exert the body’s strength, but also under the drug’s effect, the body’s structure undergoes significant change, rendering it invulnerable—Absolute Defense.

What’s more impressive is that Death God No. 1 has a chip implanted in the heart. This chip, once computer-controlled, can send task commands, achieving intelligent control.

For instance, it can accomplish tasks according to the owner’s will, responding independently to anomalies, rather than being merely an Undead who only fights and kills.

After settling Chu Jingyun in the living room, Xu Kan ordered the preparation of food and drinks, and the two started eating. Chu Jingyun wasn’t interested in such warm hospitality. After eating a few bites, he began discussing the main topic.

"Elder Xu, I’ve come mainly for a few things requiring your assistance."

Chu Jingyun took a few bites of food and started discussing business, saying: "Firstly, I need to understand the World Medicine Company’s new drug situation; secondly, I want to know the background of that person called Chen Tianlong; finally, I want to test our latest research, Death God No. 1, here in South Sea City."

"Test? What kind of test?" Although Xu Kan knew Chu Jingyun was a genius, he didn’t understand the specifics.

The Undead research had been a collaboration with the Chu Family months ago, and that person had killed someone, but was later subdued by Chen Tianlong.

Now with the birth of Chu Family’s Death God No. 1, Xu Family would also rise alongside, and their new research finally had a foundation.

"Hmm, my people have brought a newly researched experimental subject, wanting to first test it in South Sea City," Chu Jingyun truthfully said.

After all, the Xu Family is his insider in South Sea City, and the Undead research owes much to Xu Kan’s contributions, providing extensive valuable medical knowledge to the Chu Family. This matter can indeed be disclosed to him.

"Ah? So it’s Young Master Chu’s latest research? Tell me what it is."

Xu Kan knew some details but still pretended not to.

Chu Jingyun’s brows furrowed, clearly somewhat displeased, but then he reconsidered that Xu Kan’s presence in South Sea City made Death God No. 1’s recent completion quite a secret.

Unless Dr. Gao secretly leaked the news, others would rarely know.

Besides the Chu Family Patriarch Chu Jiangnan, others are kept in the dark about this project, as it’s a public safety threat, involving illegal methods, and even violates social moral ethics.

Furthermore, this drug is still immature; anyone who takes it usually experiences side effects—not fatal but also damages some brain cells. Generally, drug testers end up either mentally unsound or vegetative.

The project Chu Jingyun and Dr. Gao developed has a flaw: the receptor must be alive, and the smarter a person is, the more their immense potential can be tapped.

It’s well known that smart people have stronger potential abilities than those with lower IQs, as their brains are more fully developed.

And this death row convict was at least a member of an international criminal syndicate; being able to mix internationally definitely indicates they’re not to be underestimated, so Chu Jingyun and Dr. Gao finally chose this type of person for their test.

"It’s a corpse," Chu Jingyun said ambiguously.

"What?"

Xu Kan was alarmed by Chu Jingyun’s words, bringing a corpse? What’s going on? Young Master Chu wouldn’t want him to guard this corpse, would he?

"Heh, Elder Xu, no need to worry. I haven’t finished speaking."

Chu Jingyun had long anticipated Xu Kan’s reaction and continued with a smile: "This isn’t an ordinary corpse. It’s crafted by our people at a high cost. While not as formidable as Transformers, it has its unique features: Yellow Dao two-star strength, Absolute Defense, and it’s intelligent."

"Huh?"
