Chapter 1662: Following the Clues

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

If Shen Yuanbiao were to renovate a luxurious cultivation club that consumed high-level monster materials like flowing water, he could, of course, go there, given his status and financial resources.

However, the public was watching now. The luxurious cultivation clubs had adjusted their business operations and closed their doors. The disciples of the nine great cultivation families were also well-behaved and running around with their tails between their legs.

As an example to his disciples, Shen Yuanbiao had to lead a plain and hardworking lifestyle too.

This private cultivation club was adjacent to Dragon City University. Although its appearance was low-key, it was enough to satisfy the picky and professional university professors. It had its own unique features.

Of course, Meng Chao believed that Shen Yuanbiao definitely did not visit the club just for its superb massage techniques or the purity of its refined essential oils.

!!

When Meng Chao focused his mind and calmed his breath, he expanded his vitality magnetic field to the limit and tried to penetrate the interior of the private cultivation club with his five senses, only to discover that the external wall of the building before him was much thicker than he had imagined.

Moreover, lead plates were embedded within the reinforced concrete wall, which could isolate most radiation and spirit waves.

The entire private cultivation club was like a huge safe.

Unless one took the risk to sneak in, it would be challenging to discover who Shen Yuanbiao was meeting, what he was saying, and what he was doing.

Although Meng Chao could not find all of that out, he was overjoyed.

Shen Yuanbiao’s sneaky appearance in such a place with such tight security was already strange in itself. This guy had finally lost his cool and exposed himself!

Just as Meng Chao pondered whether or not he should disguise himself as a guest or waiter and sneak into the private cultivation club, he suddenly smelled a familiar but unique fragrance. It drifted out from another building across a tree-lined path.

“It’s the smell of the tracking drug that I smeared on Shen Yuanbao’s private seal!”

Meng Chao was slightly startled.

His mind raced, and he immediately reacted.

“I see. There must be a secret passage connecting this private cultivation club to another building that is separated by this tree-lined path!

“On the surface, Shen Yuanbiao entered the private cultivation club to enjoy himself, but in reality, he went next door through a secret passage to see the person he really wanted to meet!

“That’s right. At this moment, Shen Yuanbiao has become everyone’s target in the eyes of the Shen family children. His every move is exposed to the spotlight. At least dozens of pairs of eyes are staring at him, knowing that he has come to this private cultivation club.

“The person he’s meeting won’t show his face here!”

Meng Chao quickly turned his attention to the building next door.

Perhaps the defensive measure of embedding the wall with lead plates was a cover-up to divert attention.

The building next door, which seemed to be a private residence, was unguarded, and it did not stop Meng Chao’s perception from infiltrating it.

The problem was that, aside from two subtle but steady breaths and heartbeats, Meng Chao could not hear the voices of Shen Yuanbiao and his contact.

Thinking about it carefully, if the contact from the Blood Alliance was really sitting opposite Shen Yuanbiao, the two parties would not need to speak at all for the sake of safety. Instead, they would use the “pen-and-paper” method or communicate with electronic input devices that were physically isolated from the Internet. After exchanging information, they would burn the pen and paper or electronic input devices into coke and shake them into powder before flushing them into the toilet bowl. That would be safer.

Ten minutes later, the special smell that Shen Yuanbao’s private seal gave off gradually dissipated.

Soon, it floated out of the private cultivation club one street away like a blossoming flower.

It seemed that Shen Yuanbiao had finished his communication with his contact and was ready to return to Universe Corporation’s headquarters.

Then, he heard the sound of a crystal engine in the underground garage of the private residence across the street.

“Shen Yuanbiao is useless now.”

Meng Chao immediately made a call. “After he leaves the private cultivation club, he’ll never do anything illegal again. He’ll never let anyone find any evidence against him!

“We will only catch a bigger fish by following this contact of his!”

Meng Chao took a deep breath and closed his eyes. He carefully sensed the ripples in the air when the crystal engine started.

Just as no two of the billions of people who lived on Earth had the same set of fingerprints and auricles, every crystal engine had a different characteristic.

Even if they were made from the same production line and they looked exactly the same, due to different environments and the way they were used, the sound they produced would become increasingly different after they ran for a period of time.

Such a difference was the crystal engines’ equivalent to fingerprints and auricles.

Ordinary people might not be able to tell the difference between two vehicles of the same model and the roaring of their engines.

Meanwhile, an experienced driver might be able to identify different vehicles from the roaring of the crystal engines within a range of twenty meters.

At Meng Chao’s level, however, he could identify the type and level of a monster from hundreds of meters away through the monster’s heartbeat.

As long as he memorized the crystal engine’s roar, he could lock onto its coordinates within a range of three to five kilometers!

Meng Chao saw an average white sedan that was neither new nor old slowly drive out of the underground garage. There was a large scratch mark on the left side of the car. Although the damage was not serious, it was unsightly.

The driver was the only one in the car. He was a middle-aged man with a delicate face and elegant temperament, like a professor at Dragon City University.

Ten years ago, Dragon City had been short of resources, and the roads would be destroyed by monsters every now and then. Other than the rich with high cultivation, the middle class could hardly afford to buy and maintain a crystal car.

With their victory in the Monster War and the continuous expansion of Dragon City’s traffic and highway system, it was now not a very ostentatious thing to drive an economical car as a university professor.

Fortunately, no matter how many cars there were in Dragon City these days, it still could not compare to the morning and evening rush hour in the metropolis of Earth.

Meng Chao easily identified and locked onto the white car from the roar of several hundred crystal engines on the seven or eight surrounding streets.

To avoid attracting attention, the other party did not drive fast, following the traffic rules obediently.

There was no need for Meng Chao to run at full speed. Instead, he used the darkening sky to shuttle through the poor streets and alleys three to five hundred meters away. All he needed to do was ensure that the other party was within his range of surveillance at all times.

Gradually, the tall buildings around him became sparse.

What replaced them were old factories and half-demolished ruins.

The driver drove for another seven to eight minutes before finally stopping at the entrance of a garage.
