Fu Yan frowned when he heard this and asked while massaging his temple with the other hand:

"Calm down and tell me what happened."

After a short silence, Fei Hong took a deep breath and replied with a nervous tone:

"Ok, I am calm now…" She took another deep breath and continued.

"So Google has started its attack on our company. First, we got a notice from the local tax bureau, and they suspect that we're doing tax evasion. They want us to suspend our business till this matter is clear. Second is that many high-level employees in the company have suddenly decided to quit. Each of them is a management-level employee and I fear that they might do something to harm the company while leaving, and I have no way to know if they would do it or not."

Fu Yan sighed when he heard this and leaned back on the chair. He did not know why but suddenly he felt like singing. He started to hum the song that he used to like when he was little and would listen to it repeatedly.

Fei Hong was surprised when she heard Fu Yan humming on the phone and did not know what to say. She hesitated for a while and then clenched her fist and said with a wavering voice.

"Fu Yan! Is everything ok?"

When Fei Hong's voice came from the speakers, Fu Yan shook his head as if he was out of some sort of trance and replied while smiling a little.

"Oh! No, nothing. I was just thinking about something. Anyway, let Jiao Mei handle the stuff with the tax bureau, and if they still insist on doing this, let her take this matter to court since we have not done something wrong. If needed, show all relevant documents to the court. No need for confidentiality. As for the other matter regarding many quitting the job, let them do what they want. But make sure to tell them that if they quit now, they will be banned from the company. They won't be able to work with us ever again and not only that, but they will also be blacklisted from using any of our services ever again." Fu Yan said all this with a calm and confident tone while looking towards the data on the screen.

Fei Hong was surprised by Fu Yan's decision. She had never seen this side of him before. While giving orders to her now, he was like a totally different person. The coldness in his voice and the attitude towards those who quit was something that could belong to those who were confident that they had full control over everything.

Fei Hong took a deep breath, she was sweating just after talking with him, the coldness in voice was giving her goosebumps. She tried to control herself but failed and asked in a shaky voice.

"What about the problem regarding them doing something underhanded before leaving the company?"

Fu Yan chuckled when he heard this, and he replied with a joking tone:

"Well they can try, but they won't succeed and if they dare to try, their life will become hell. My team will be monitoring everything, you don't need to worry about anything. Just do your normal job." Fu Yan failed to notice that he was not in his usual self, and something was influencing him. His mindset was changing and, for him, anyone who tried to harm him or his property was an enemy. Even now when he was talking with Fei Hong, he did not talk to her as a colleague, but as a boss.

Fei Hong shivered when she heard this. She wiped the sweat on her forehead away with her hand. After calming herself, she mustered some courage and asked with a nervous and caring tone:

"Fu Yan! Everything is ok, right? Did something happen? Why are you like a totally different person? The way you are talking and responding is as if you are angry. Please tell me if something happened. I will try my best to help." 

There was silence on both sides and after a while, Fu Yan's voice sounded in the speaker.

"No, nothing happened. Don't worry. Call me later if you need anything." His voice was low when he said this and it contained a warm feeling this time.

After he said this, the call disconnected. Fei Hong looked towards the phone in her hand and gazed at it for a while. Then she placed it on the table in front of her and took a deep breath. After a while, she stood up from the chair and walked outside. She was going towards Jiao Mei's office and tell her about Fu Yan's decision.

After disconnecting the call with Fei Hong, Fu Yan placed the phone on the table and held his head with both hands. 

After Fei Hong reminded him that he was different from before, he suddenly came back to his senses, that's why he hurriedly disconnected the call. 

"What is happening to me? It was odd from the start, I killed someone but did not feel anything. It was as if that was something natural to do. I did not even bat an eye when I ordered Qing to kill. I killed 5 men and did not feel even a tiny amount of guilt. Though they were scums, life is still life and now I was telling Fei Hong that I will make the life of any person who dares to try harming my company, hell. No! No, this is not me. Is it the side effect of the enhancement drug? I need to know, I need to know what causes this." Fu Yan's eyes were shaking when he was thinking all this, the muscles of his arms were trembling and sweat had drenched his whole body. 

Fu Yan suddenly swiped on the tattoo on his left hand and in a second, his consciousness appeared in the great hall of the Library. 

The moment he was in the Library, he said in a loud voice which contained anger and anxiety:

"Casper! Casper, come out here now!"

The silence in the Library was broken and everyone turned their attention towards him, but they could only watch and do nothing else. No matter who it was, anyone became rooted in place and no one dared to make any noise.

Just five seconds had passed as Casper could be seen hurrying towards him. When he came near, Fu Yan lunged forward and held him from his neck. 

"What did you do to my body?" Fu Yan asked in a roaring voice with eyes full of anger and veins popping on his forehead. The muscles in his arm were trembling due to the force that Fu Yan was exerting.

"My Lord… Please tell me: What did this servant do? I am your loyal servant and if I dared to harm even one hair of yours, you can incinerate me or let me suffer in the dark chamber of the Library for eternity." Casper said in a weak and low voice. His eyes were fixed on Fu Yan and were burning with passion as he spoke.

"I asked you to check if there was any defect in using that strengthening agent, and you told me that there was nothing wrong with the drug. But why am I feeling different emotions now, as if my mind was under the influence of something? I killed someone, but I did not feel anything. Tell me what is it? If it isn't the side effect from the drug, then what is it?" Fu Yan's voice was still with anger. His eyes were looking straight at Casper as if they were ready to burn him at any moment. 

"Milord! I checked the drug with the most advanced equipment and ran many simulations after I gave it back to you. I am 100% sure that it's not the drug that is influencing your mind. If you are still not satisfied, you can let me suffer in the dark chamber or kill me." Casper replied with a weak voice while he looked at Fu Yan with full of confidence. 

When he heard this, Fu Yan loosened his grip a little, then he looked towards Casper with a questioning gaze and asked:

"Then what is influencing my Mind?"

Casper hesitated for a moment and then, as if he suddenly got courage, he said with a hurried tone:

"If I am right it could be the L…" Before he could finish, he suddenly shrieked and fell on the floor twitching. He was howling as if something was killing him, but Fu Yan could not see anyone or anything that could be causing this. 

He bent towards Casper and tried to hold. After trying for a while, he managed to hold Casper still and looked around.

"What is happening to him? Tell me!" He looked towards the group of workers who were standing still and asked with a commanding tone.

One of the workers hesitated a little and then said while looking towards the ground, with a shaky voice.

"Sir, it's because he tried to tell you something that is not allowed to be shared. It's because your level is not high enough and the Library did not allow this information to be known in advance." After saying this, the worker weakly fell down onto the floor because he had no strength left.

Fu Yan looked towards the worker and then Casper who was still howling and trembling.

"Ok stop it now, I won't ask it. Stop it." Fu Yan screamed in a loud voice while lifting his head towards the ceiling. 

Just after he said this, Casper stopped shaking and then became unconscious. Fu Yan lightly lifted him up and walked towards the workers. 

"Take him to the medical room, take care of him." Fu Yan ordered in a warm tone, while handing Casper to a worker who looked like an octopus. Then he swiped on his left hand and disappeared from the Library. 

When he was back in his house on earth, he walked out of the study room and then went to the washroom to take a shower. Even while walking, his head was full of questions, as to who was influencing him and why. If it was the Library, then what was the reason for it? Why did the Library stop Casper from revealing the information, and why was he given that cruel punishment? 

Standing beneath the shower, he was burning his brain cells for the answer. After a while, he slammed his fist on the wall hard. Due to impact, the wall trembled a little and Fu Yan's fist turned red.

"So everything came back to having insufficient authority." He took a deep breath and then looked up with passion burning in his eyes while ignoring the pain.

He shook his fist and raised it towards the ceiling, water splashed on his fist and Fu Yan said with an angry voice:

"So you want me to level up to know about these things. Alright! I will level up! I will take full control of the Library, and then I will see who can stop me!"
