Liu Hui received two brand-new medications from Zeg and was overjoyed. He asked, "Esteemed Zeg, what is the price for this nicotine cessation drug of yours?"

Zeg replied, "One unit of white powder in exchange for ten thousand doses of the drug to treat tobacco addiction. As for the medication to cure the white powder addiction, that we offer to you free of charge—one million doses per month."

Liu Hui quickly calculated the cost and found the price for the smoking cessation drug extremely reasonable and fair, matching the rate for most of his previous transactions with Zeg. This thought brought on a wave of frustration: why did Zeg and Alexander, fellow planar traders, appear so honest and amiable, while that Xiaoyaozi seemed utterly deceitful?

Liu Hui stated, "Esteemed Zeg, I would like to order fifty million doses of the tobacco addiction cessation drug for now. I will prepare five thousand units of white powder."

Zeg confirmed, "No problem. We can deliver the fifty million doses of the tobacco addiction cessation drug to you ten days from now. At that time, we will also deliver the one million doses of the medication to cure white powder addiction."

After settling the main business, a sudden thought struck Liu Hui, and he inquired, "Esteemed Zeg, if the human reproductive system sustains damage, can it be repaired?"

Zeg responded, "That depends on the specifics. If the damage to the reproductive system is too severe, even we are powerless. Even for us, reproduction remains an area with many unknowns; after all, the genesis of life is the most mysterious process in the universe—it is exceedingly complex."

Liu Hui said, "Esteemed Zeg, in a few days, I will provide you with a patient's physical examination results. Could you please examine them and tell me if her reproductive function can be restored?"

"No issue," Zeg agreed. The reason Liu Hui asked Zeg about reproductive matters was because he was thinking of Pingping, who was with King Yue. Pingping had suffered multiple miscarriages in the past and had been declared infertile by doctors. Now that Pingping was with King Yue, Liu Hui wanted to offer some help; if he could cure Pingping's infertility, it would be a service to King Yue as well.

As for the fertility concerns that Hu Xian'er constantly worried about, Liu Hui hadn't given them much thought. The physical examination results from the Starry Sky Terminal Illness Hospital had confirmed that both he and Hu Xian'er were in excellent health, with no issues concerning reproduction. The current inability to conceive was simply bad luck. As long as they spent enough time together, conception would eventually occur.

With the smoking cessation and detoxification drugs provided by Zeg, the construction of two new production factories quietly commenced within the industrial zone of "Starry Sky City." These two factories would be dedicated exclusively to manufacturing the anti-smoking and anti-addiction products.

The Starry Sky Group had relocated entirely to "Starry Sky City," allowing Liu Hui complete control over everything there, eliminating any risk of secrets leaking due to external inspections. However, as an extra precaution, Liu Hui disguised the production lines of these two factories, using the ostensibly visible drug manufacturing to mask the true products being secretly produced underneath.

If all went smoothly, the smoking cessation and detoxification products would officially launch for sale in one month. Although Liu Hui was uncertain about the sales performance of these two products, he was confident he could spark another sales miracle in the market.

A few days later, Xiaoyaozi’s official mind-reading artifact, the Eye of Truth, was finally refined. After paying five thousand Level Four Monster Beast Crystal Cores, Liu Hui obtained the artifact he had desperately desired.

The day after acquiring the Eye of Truth, Liu Hui immediately summoned the company’s senior executives to his office for a meeting. The meetings were small—only ten people at a time—and very brief—lasting only ten minutes each.

These executives barely had time to settle in before Liu Hui dismissed them, leaving them utterly bewildered and unsure of their boss’s intentions. Unbeknownst to them, as soon as they left, Liu Hui began reading the true thoughts recorded within the Eye of Truth to ascertain if any of them harbored thoughts of betraying the company.

Through this series of rapid-fire small meetings, Liu Hui managed to observe the inner thoughts of all the top leadership within the Starry Sky Group. During this review, he discovered that many Starry Sky Group personnel had leaked company secrets. However, since the source of all these secrets ultimately lay with Liu Hui himself, the so-called "secrets" they leaked were hardly significant.

Nevertheless, since Liu Hui now knew these individuals had compromised company confidentiality, he naturally would not tolerate their continued presence in the Starry Sky Group. He handed the list of these informants to Desheng and instructed him to handle them.

Those who had unknowingly leaked information, and whose offenses were minor, were simply ordered to leave "Starry Sky City" and dismissed from the Starry Sky Group. Those whose leaks were malicious, deliberate, or who were corporate spies infiltrating the Starry Sky Group were made to disappear secretly, their whereabouts never known again.

When Desheng reviewed this list and its specific contents, he was profoundly shocked. He began to suspect that his boss possessed an entirely different intelligence network, one far superior to his own Starry Sky Eye. This suspicion indirectly fueled Desheng’s determination to reorganize his intelligence system, leading the Starry Sky Eye to eventually become the world's preeminent intelligence organization.

Despite the internal betrayals, Liu Hui was relieved to find that the highest rank among these traitors was only middle management. The true top echelon of the Starry Sky Group remained fiercely loyal, with no betrayals among them.

Through this internal purge, all hidden traitors among the Starry Sky Group's middle management and above were rounded up, transforming the group’s internal structure into an unbreakable unit, no longer easily penetrated.

This cleansing of internal betrayal lasted for a month before finally ceasing. With the internal threat resolved, Liu Hui’s demanding work finally concluded.

That day, Liu Hui left work early, intending to return home and spend quality time with Hu Xian’er, compensating for his recent neglect due to his busy schedule. Upon arriving home, he found Hu Xian'er was not there. A quick phone call revealed she was at Liu Hui’s parents' house.

Liu Hui hurried over to his parents' home. He found his father watching television while Hu Xian'er and his mother were cooking in the kitchen, occasionally exchanging hushed whispers.

Seeing Liu Hui arrive, his father motioned for him to sit and watch TV together.

"Dad, how has your health been lately?" Liu Hui asked casually.

"Mmm, feeling quite good recently, son," his father replied contentedly. "That rejuvenation medicine of yours is truly amazing. My physical condition is excellent, just like when I was in my twenties."

Ever since the Starry Sky Group officially announced the breakthrough in rejuvenation technology, Liu Hui’s parents had completely abandoned pretense, appearing before the world with youthful visages. Although outsiders were momentarily surprised by their appearance, they quickly reconciled themselves to the marvel of anti-aging technology.

It wasn't just Liu Hui's parents; the Old Superman of Hong Kong, the Gambling King of Macau, and Abdullah of Saudi Arabia—three elderly men who had undergone the rejuvenation treatment—had also ceased using disguises and presented themselves with youthful looks. This caused immense shock globally. After witnessing the formidable technical prowess of the Starry Sky Group, those who still harbored doubts about the rejuvenation technology immediately silenced themselves, and nations embroiled in protracted negotiations with "Starry Sky City" rapidly accelerated their pace.

Liu Hui looked at his rejuvenated father and laughed, "Haha, Dad, if we walk out together, no one would ever suspect we are father and son."

His father touched his own face and marveled, "I truly can’t believe how young I look now; it’s like having a second life." Just as Liu Hui was about to respond, he heard laughter emanating from the kitchen. He turned to see his mother whispering conspiratorially to Hu Xian’er, who then looked at Liu Hui’s flushed face and said, "I don't know what they’re laughing about. Ever since Xian'er arrived today, the two of them have been whispering together for ages."

Liu Hui asked curiously, "Dad, do you know what they are discussing?"

His father shook his head. "How would I know what their private talks are about? But I imagine it has something to do with you two having children."

Liu Hui scratched his head and laughed, "Well, we're still young; there’s no rush to have children."

His father chuckled, "I’m not in a rush, but your mother certainly is!"

Liu Hui could only manage an awkward smile, though he held back one thought: If they are in a rush, I can just have another one and leave! Since my body is young again, my reproductive capacity should still be functional, right?

At that moment, a breaking news report on the television captured Liu Hui’s attention. The broadcast reported that Master Zhiguang of Guiyuan Temple in the domestic region of Chuzhou had passed away peacefully at 4:14 PM that afternoon. The news footage briefly showed Master Zhiguang sitting in meditation on his cushion at the moment of his demise—it was a fleeting image that vanished instantly.

Liu Hui blinked, sensing a vague familiarity with the monk’s face, but the image was too quick for clear recognition. While Liu Hui was puzzling over this, he noticed his father, sitting opposite him, appeared even more stunned than he was.

"Old woman, come out and see this major news!" his father called toward the kitchen.

His mother paused, startled. His father had never voluntarily called her to watch the news before, meaning this report must be extraordinary. When his mother saw the news about Master Zhiguang’s passing, she gasped in shock, letting the green onion she was holding slip to the floor.
