She Gu stared at Yu Mei"s pitiful state with an unreadable expression.He thought that if Master Yang were to be the one who"ll look after Yu Mei, she"ll be fixed and talking soon. All of White Bird"s secrets will come out of this woman. He had sacrificed thousands of his resources, money and men just to bust this one out of White Bird"s nest.
You will imagine the wrath he will unleash if all of his sacrifices end up in vain.
"Is she really...far from saving?" She Gu worriedly asked.
"Not quite." Master Yang wiped his hands. She Gu"s face lit up with hope while She Lei secretly clicked his tongue.
"It may seem like so if you did not feed her the drug given to her by White Bird." She Gu frowned by the information.
"But, won"t that make her condition worsen?"
A s.a.d.i.s.tic smirked made its way on Master Yang"s thin lips. "Her body already became dependent on the drug, that if not given, she will die." He nonchalantly elucidated. She Gu sucked in a sharp breath and stare at the body of Yu Mei in disbelief.
"What drug was it?" He asked.
"Black Egg." Everyone inside the lab, except She Liu, had their breath hitched.
"Black Egg? You"ve got to be kidding me!"
Black Egg is a frightening drug that"s both powerful and dangerous. To think that this woman has been intaking this drug for a long time, it"s certain that her captor really hated her guts. She Gu can safely admit that White Bird may be the most ruthless and merciless person he"ve ever encountered.
Also, Black Egg comes not too often in the Black Market. If it was, people would swarm it like flies. Its price would reach into an unimaginable amount with lots of zeroes.
To obtain the Black Egg regularly, White Bird should be the richest person in the Underworld
Such gem, only to waste it on a woman she loathes.
She Lei observed everyone"s reaction in amus.e.m.e.nt. Black Egg you say? You mean that small thing Cyrus and Cyra had been concocting like it was nothing on the lab?
Black Egg is used for White Bird"s prisoners to tame them. The Reapers are the only ones who knew that this drug belongs to White Bird because they also use it for the Underworld prisoners.
She Gu ordered his men to attend every Black Markets" bidding event and get every Black Egg they could find. The Black Egg"s value to the Underworld is highly soughed that She Gu worries not for the price but for the first to have it.

Ethan"s alter ego, Silver Dragon entered White Bird"s bustling headquarters with haste. Members stopped what they were doing to bow their heads in respect when he pa.s.s them.
They were still doubtful of this newly appointed Elder. They had witnessed his fighting prowess in the war with Vermillion Dragon back then and they were amazed by it. However, it was not enough to prove his worth.
He"s still yet to be recognized as an official Elder, despite White Bird personally giving him the t.i.tle.
What a good people White Bird have as subordinates. They are well trained and would never trust anyone so easily, even if it"s one of their own.
Ethan swiped the card Lillie gave him. It has access to every door within the HQ which only him and her has it.
"You"re here, good." Lillie"s voice welcomed him as soon as he stepped inside. The people present were White Crow, Silent Death, Enyo and the twins.
He eyed everyone and found that two of the Elders he knew are missing.
"Now Red Raven and Thousand Face Succubus are the ones left it seems." White Crow (Elliot) stated with a sigh.
Enyo (An Xiu Ling) had her fist lightly smack the table. "That d.a.m.n hacker, I explicitly told him to come early!" She growled, fuming.
"Succubus is still "playing" with her toys," Killer Jill (Cyra) replied with a double meaning behind her words.
"She might not make it." Killer Jack (Cyrus) finishes his twin"s sentence.
"In that case, we"ll start without them." White Bird made the final decision and ushered White Crow to start the meeting.
