Urban Seduction: Housewives Club

Ailing officially reported to the Shanghai branch of the National Security Bureau. Her pre-heaven mastery not only did not encounter any rejection but also attracted a large number of fans, especially Wang Dali, who had once interrogated Eric.

Of course, these people's admiration for Tan Ailing had nothing to do with love between men and women; it was purely admiration for power.

Tang Feiyan also left because the school had begun to confirm the list of members preparing to participate in social practice.

Unlike the first time she went to Country A, this time Tang Feiyan only felt reluctant to leave, without any resentment.

Because Deputy Mayor Tang had already tacitly approved her relationship with Eric. Although he did not agree, he no longer objected.

Compared with Tang Feiyan's reluctance to leave, Wu Mei's departure seemed much more relaxed, even a bit "eager"!

The reason was simple: she just wanted to get rid of the "Saintess" status as soon as possible and live a "real" life with Eric! Before leaving, Eric also helped her enter the pre-heaven realm.

In addition to the surprise, Wu Mei also repaid Eric with an unconventional "entertainment feast."

Lin Yujie has been very busy these days because it turns out that the "Spring Breeze and Rain Dafa" is very helpful for her mother.

In just a few days, Lin's mother's health has improved a lot, and she can now walk for half an hour without feeling tired!

Little Feng Qian, on the other hand, has been playing wildly these days.

Always with those Tibetan mastiffs, eating and sleeping together, I don't know why she likes dogs so much!

Eric couldn't let her continue to play like this. With the help of Deputy Mayor Tang, he contacted a primary school for Little Feng Qian, preparing to send her there for sixth grade after the winter vacation.

Although with Little Feng Qian's current intelligence and knowledge, going to elementary school is a bit of a waste, Eric's intention is not for her to learn knowledge but to hope that she can be with peers, better integrate into society, and have a happy childhood!

Luoli and Sun Clouds still go to the company for training every day.

Because Sun Clouds' conditions and foundation are very good, there are signs of her becoming a master today.

With Eric's approval, the company has established a dedicated planning team to promote her. They have started looking for suitable songs for her and are preparing to release a single to test the market reaction.

Although Luoli has not yet come up with any ideas, she is also striving to become an excellent agent!

Everyone is busy, and Eric is no exception.

After spending two days absorbing and transforming the earth's evil aura madly, not only did he restore his magic power to its peak, but he also stabilized his mastery at the pinnacle of pre-heaven.

Eric knew that this was already his limit. Even if he absorbed more earth's evil aura, it would not help his mastery. Although there is only one realm difference between the pinnacle of pre-heaven and grandmaster, the gap between them cannot be measured in words. Eric is not confident that he can take that step!

Back in the main bedroom garden named "Lanshan," facing the empty and quiet environment, Eric felt a bit uncomfortable. After thinking about it, he decided to go to Europe early.

Before leaving, he called Skidmore to inquire about and arrange some things.

"Do you have institutions under you that are conducting cloning research?"

Skidmore nodded and said, "The Advanced Cell Technology Company, Cloning Aid Company, and Stem Cell Research Company controlled by subordinates all have the most advanced cloning research institutes in Country A. What does the master command?"

"How is the technical strength of these three institutes?"

"They are absolutely top-notch!" Skidmore said confidently, "Michael West of the Advanced Cell Technology Company, Panos Zavos of the Cloning Aid Company, and Samuel Wood of the Stem Cell Research Company are all the most authoritative cloning experts in Country A and even the world!"

"How do they compare to Dr. Vilmuth of the Lin Research Institute in E country, Russia?"

"They are no less inferior!"

Eric nodded and continued, "Do they have any experience with cloning humans?"

"The Cloning Aid Company cloned a baby last year..."

Eric frowned slightly, "Just a baby?"

"Adult cloning technology is not yet perfect!"

Due to Eric's attitude, Skidmore was somewhat nervous. "The main issue is that there is a great bias in society against human cloning. No one dares to openly research it, nor is there anyone willing to openly fund it..."

"Gather all the technical forces, provide unlimited financial support, and fully research and develop human cloning!"

Eric had no choice. He really didn't want to call a female baby "mother"!

Although he possessed unique magic like "time," and Lusien also had the "domain of time," all of this could not be used to stimulate growth!

Stimulating growth means accelerating metabolism.

The body can withstand a metabolic rate change of up to ten times. But once this limit is exceeded, except for someone like Eric with a chaotic constitution, other bodies will suffer greatly.

"Yes, master."

Skidmore respectfully responded, then asked cautiously, "Master, are you... planning to reshape Madam's body?"

Although the title "Madam" made Eric laugh and cry, it was still within his tolerance.

At the beginning, Skidmore and the others called Eric Olivia "my person"!

After Eric Olivia was protected by Eric and reincarnated or possessed, her mental age would remain the same as when she "died."

A mentally mature, "in her twenties" woman with a baby's body and an already adult son would still be called "my person"!

Just think about it, perhaps even Eric Olivia herself couldn't stand it?

Thinking about the possible embarrassment and awkwardness between mother and son in the future, Eric smiled bitterly to himself but did not hide anything from Skidmore, nodding lightly.

"However..."

Skidmore hesitated for a moment, then decided to hint to his master, "If you want to clone, you must have living cells provided by the original body..."

Eric smiled faintly and waved his hand. "You don't need to worry about this. You just need to establish the institute and gather all the cloning experts!"

Eric Olivia's living cells were available. Eric had found them on a dried corpse and had already stored them properly.

As Skidmore was about to leave, Eric stopped him. "You should find a few more cloning experts! Not just in Country A, but around the world. If you can't invite them, then steal them!"

Skidmore was slightly stunned, then nodded solemnly.

"As for Dr. Vilmuth in E country, you don't need to worry about him. I will personally go invite him!"

"Master, are you overestimating him? Or should I send someone to invite him..."

Seeing Skidmore seeming a bit dissatisfied, Eric smiled, "This time, I am not just going for him. I also plan to go to France to help a friend reclaim something..."

When he heard the word "France," Skidmore's expression was extremely complex. Eric, who had never seen him like this before, was a bit strange and couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"

Skidmore knelt down and begged, "Master, please take your subordinate to France..."

"Oh?" Eric raised an eyebrow. "Tell me the reason."

"Master, as you know, except for Lusien, most of us were exiled to the Americas by our original families for various reasons... My original family is in France!"

"You want to return to your family?"

"No!" A hint of hatred flashed in Skidmore's eyes. "I want revenge!"

"Revenge?"

Eric smiled indifferently. "You're not happy about being expelled from the family?"

"Master, most of us were exiled because we committed serious offenses. There are very few cases where the family was destroyed or power was seized!"

"Which category do you belong to?" Eric looked at him with interest.

"I was exiled to the Americas by the Marshall family, who served our Skidmore family for generations!"

This answer surprised Eric. He looked somewhat astonished and asked, "From what I know, the social hierarchy of your vampires is extremely strict, and what they fear most is insubordination. How could your servants possibly seize your power?"

"Master, you may not know that in our vampire social system, there is an unwritten rule—within the same family, peers of the same rank can compete for resources through single combat! The head of the Marshall family, who was also my previous steward, is a count..."

"Such a competitive mechanism sounds good! But..."

Eric smiled faintly, "It seems like you're really unhappy about losing, aren't you?"

Skidmore didn't hide his feelings. "If I had lost in a fair duel, there would be nothing to say! However, the reason I lost back then was because someone added holy water from the Vatican to the blood I drank, causing my strength to only be half of what it could be..."

Eric shook his head and chuckled, "You were really foolish not to defend against possible foul play before the duel."

"I was still very young over three hundred years ago..." Skidmore looked embarrassed.

Eric smiled but didn't say anything. After thinking for a while, he ordered, "Select some qualified vampires to return to the family for the 'seizure of power,' and come with me to Europe!"

Skidmore was overjoyed and bowed, "Thank you, master!"

Earth has only been half a year for Eric, but he has already deeply understood the power dynamics. He knows that if he were not the Young Master of the Medicine King Sect, or Sakya's Living Buddha, his demeanor alone might have provoked the practitioners long ago.

Even countries might have targeted him for certain interests.

If Eric were still the Eric of Celestia, he might not care, because his individual strength is immensely powerful, and he has no worries.

But things are different now.

On Earth, there are not only Grandmasters who can threaten him, but also his loved ones and relatives. He cannot abandon them!

Therefore, Eric has decided to expand his influence as much as possible, to the extent that it would make everyone, including nations, think twice before acting against him!

Because of this, when Skidmore made his request, Eric began to consider it.

Vampires have thrived in the West for thousands of years.

It would be much more profitable to directly absorb their power than to start from scratch!
