Chapter 1100: The Strength of Red Moon (IV)
“Me?” Director General Zhao held himself with some reservation. “I learned New Martial’s mental splitting technique a few years ago and also utilized Li Hao’s supernatural characters to create another copy of myself. It’s my supernatural character doppelgänger!
“I’ve utilized these two experiments in conjunction to separate myself into two. One of them can go off and be modified, the other one of me will need some support. After I am modified, the two of me can come back together as one. I will strip the other’s influence from my body, which will enable me to claim all of the benefits without having to honor the obligations...”
“You... can create replicas of yourself?” Deputy Zhou blinked.
“You can put it that way,” smiled the director general. “But the other me... is the same as this me. You’ve just never discovered it.”
“Wait... have you’ve swapped yourself out in front of me before?!” exclaimed Deputy Zhou.
“I have. I can’t be handling administrative affairs everyday, after all. I need to cultivate as well. I switch between the two every now and then so I can cultivate,” chuckled Director General Zhao. “And where am I supposed to find spare time if I’m administering the province and going to the ruins at the same time? The other me has been cultivating all this time...”
“Then what are you relying on to withstand Red Moon influence?” frowned the deputy. “The bloodline of the eight families?”
He looked at the director general with a slight shift in expression. Could it be that it wasn’t just Ying Hongyue seizing the eight bloodlines over the years, but that his old friend was involved as well? If Li Hao learned of this, their world would be turned upside down!
Didn’t that make the director general a second Ying Hongyue?
“Of course not, I only learned about Ying Hongyue later. My thoughts are different from his and I haven’t known about his side for long...” Director General Zhao shook his head. “I’m utilizing another treasure, not the eight bloodlines. However, the effects are similar.”
“What treasure?” the deputy asked out of worry.
