"What?" Daniel's pupils contracted sharply.
After consuming the Celestial Soul Pearl, Daniel had inadvertently entered the cultivator world. But ever since he'd returned to the real world, this was the first time he had heard any news about the cultivation world.
"This is likely true, but I don't have any concrete evidence. In any case, you need to be careful. There's something strange about Greenridge Syndicate," Regina warned him again.
"Got it." Daniel hung up the phone, his brow furrowed.
"What's wrong?" Charlene asked with concern when she saw the expression on Daniel's face.
Daniel waved his hand. "Just a minor issue. I'll need to handle some matters at the company tomorrow, so I might be away for a few days."
"Alright." Charlene pursed her lips. Ever since Daniel had mentioned leaving, she had known this day would come.
There wasn't much she could do, but she could at least satisfy Daniel as much as possible in other ways.
The news of the Genetic serum's release had been spreading like wildfire over the past few days.
Zidane and Omari sat facing each other.
"So, what's your plan?" Omari asked in a low voice.
The once domineering Omari was now a shadow of his former self. Daniel's two attacks had not only cost him an arm and a leg but had also shattered his spirit. Even though he could move around freely now, he still felt like a prisoner awaiting his death sentence.
Zidane's eyes gleamed with ambition. "My father has already contacted a professional team overseas. As soon as we get our hands on the Genetic serum, we'll send it over immediately. Then they can crack it as soon as possible."
"It seems you've prepared quite thoroughly," Omari said, giving Zidane a surprised look.
In the past, Zidane wouldn't even have had the right to speak in front of him. But times had changed, and the power Zidane represented was something Omari could now leverage.
