However, when Yan Chen wanted to further cooperate with the Qin Family, Old Master Qin was worried that the relationship between the Qin Family and Larilo would be discovered, so he temporarily delayed the cooperation with Yan Chen.
As for the reason, it was simple—it was "his" own death—"he" was already dead, and his descendants did not yet know about the original agreent, so they did not dare to rashly pledge their allegiance.
At that ti, Xinjie City had just been established, and the three major institutions still needed old established families like the Qin Family to establish order, so Yan Chen did not dare to put too much pressure on the Qin Family.
Thus... the Qin Family and Yan Chen reached a state of having a relationship that was not very close.
According to Larilo's speculation, it was likely Old Master Qin's conservative approach that aroused Yan Chen's suspicion.
Therefore, Yan Chen began to secretly investigate the details of the Qin Family and consequently stumbled upon so clues about Larilo.
Because Yan Chen was a "Life" path Cataclysmic.
Moreover, his Cataclysmic ability was quite special, nad "Life Devouring."
The effect of this Cataclysmic ability was very domineering: it could forcibly devour the lifespan and soul of beings on the sa path, thereby enhancing oneself.
But in the real world, randomly slaughtering Cataclysmics would result in a manhunt by the Sanctuary, so Yan Chen was forced to use his other Cataclysmic ability, "Turtle's Breath," to slowly strengthen himself.
However, no one wanted to follow the rules and cultivate step by step when shortcuts existed.
So, when he discovered that Larilo, the Evil God, was also on the "Life" path, Yan Chen was tempted.
Because Evil Gods are usually Fourth Order, Fifth Order High Order Cataclysmic Creatures, if he could devour Larilo, Yan Chen's strength would leap forward, and advancing to a Fourth-order catastrophe-evolver would be just around the corner.
But at that ti, Yan Chen had not yet thought of a good way to deal with Larilo...
Who knew, at this ti, Jia Wei actually approached Yan Chen and, identifying as a disciple of Larilo, proposed cooperating with Yan Chen.
As soone with aspirations to climb to the top, Yan Chen naturally refused Jia Wei without hesitation.
He also strongly warned Jia Wei not to cause trouble in Xinjie City, or even his brother Jia Shu would not be able to protect him.
However... after overtly refusing to cooperate with Jia Wei, Yan Chen secretly had a private talk with Secretary Bai.
In the private talk, Yan Chen hinted that he wanted to devour Larilo but could not find the opportunity.
If there were a way to lure Larilo into the real world, maybe Yan Chen could devour her and successfully advance to a Fourth-order catastrophe-evolver.
Yan Chen owed a great debt to Secretary Bai.
So, after realizing Yan Chen's interest in Larilo, Secretary Bai, after much contemplation, finally made up his mind and decided to put himself in the ga and fulfill Yan Chen's wish.
Thus, he took the initiative to find Jia Wei, reached a cooperation with him, and began to assist Jia Wei.
Faced with the olive branch suddenly extended by Secretary Bai, one of the nine high-ranking officials of the Investigation Bureau, Jia Wei certainly could not refuse.
So, although he was sowhat puzzled, he accepted Secretary Bai without hesitation.
As a result, Secretary Bai officially beca the "Evil God's mole," starting to provide Jia Wei with various intelligence about Xinjie City and the Investigation Bureau.
Secretary Bai was a very steady and diligent person. Knowing that Jia Wei might suspect him, he did not rush to et Larilo, but instead played the long ga, patiently providing intelligence and support.
It was precisely such actions that, after half a year, finally won Jia Wei's trust and led him to introduce Secretary Bai to Larilo.
Since he was prepared to enter the ga and sacrifice himself, Secretary Bai did not resist having the Believer's Mark that could strip life and death planted by Larilo.
This further gained the trust of Larilo and Jia Wei.
Thus... Larilo's various sches began to unfold to Secretary Bai. Consequently, Secretary Bai naturally learned about Larilo's arrival plan, including her target: Yan Yan.
So, one night, Secretary Bai wrote down the relevant intelligence in a letter and placed it on Yan Chen's desk.
It was precisely with this information from Secretary Bai that Yan Chen made many targeted arrangents.
For example... he borrowed in advance Cataclysmic treasures that could injure Evil Gods.
For another... he prepared a body double for his daughter ahead of ti, to replace his daughter and die in her stead.
Furthermore... after confirming the date of Larilo's arrival, he set up a large Fusion Array near the Qin Family.
One major function of this Fusion Array was: to forcibly fuse the soul with the body, unable to separate.
Unless one had the "ability to undo Cataclysmic abilities," escape was impossible!
So, upon her arrival, Larilo was horrified to discover that her soul could not return to the "Boundless Heart Sea!"
At the ti, she thought there were problems with the body Old Master Qin had crafted or that she had been ambushed, so after using the Believer's Mark to incapacitate Old Master Qin, she fled from the Qin Family and went into hiding. (Chapter 143)
Upon hearing this, Qiu Tu suddenly had a thought: so... his transmigration and rebirth, along with Qin Shuman's fusion with a new body, were actually because of Yan Chen?
But... Yan Chen's Array targeted the Qin Family and should not have affected Old Alley Street, right?
Moreover, the fusion of bodies should not have caused the original souls of these two bodies to disappear, right?
Qiu Tu felt... Yan Chen was likely a key factor in his transmigration and Qin Shuman's fusion with a new body.
But sothing else must have happened that day to ultimately lead to all this.
