My Wife, The Ice Queen President - Chapter 131
Chapter 131: Chapter 0131: Skeleton_1
He gripped the water pipe, swiveled around it a few times, and landed steadily on the balcony.

For someone of his caliber, climbing up a drainpipe was as simple as it could be.
Pressing his body against the wall beside the door, he drew out a Mo Bing, gripping it tightly in his hand, took a deep breath, and kicked the door open with a flying kick.
The room was dark, with no lights on.
Whoosh!
A cold glint approached swiftly, carrying an aura of deadly intent.
Such formidable skill; just from this move alone, he knew the opponent’s strength was certainly not much less than his own.

Since his return to the city, this was the first time Ye Xiong had encountered such a formidable opponent, and the blood in his veins suddenly boiled.
He held the Mo Bing in a reverse grip and went to meet the attack.
Clang clang clang!
The two figures exchanged blows in the darkness, striking seven or eight times before both stopped.
Because they both knew there was no point in continuing to fight.
The room’s lights came on.
Phoenix, dressed in black, stood three meters away, looking at Ye Xiong with a puzzled expression, “How come you are here?”
“I should be asking you the same question!” Ye Xiong put away his Mo Bing and sat down on the couch.
“I was tracking Skeleton here,” Phoenix replied.
“That Green-Eyed Monster?”
“You know him?”
“More than that, we’ve fought a few times, but he managed to escape.”
(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})
He hadn’t expected the Green-Eyed Monster’s name to be Skeleton, but the name was indeed fitting.
It was thin as a rail, indistinguishable as male or female, always wrapped in a black cloak, with only a pair of eerie green eyes visible, truly resembling a skeleton.
“You’ve clashed with him? When?” Phoenix asked, surprised.
Ye Xiong recounted the times he had fought with Skeleton, once in an alley outside Yang Xinyi’s villa and once in the garden of Du Yuehua’s villa.
After listening, Phoenix immediately fell into deep thought.
“Who exactly is Skeleton?” Ye Xiong asked, puzzled.
“Based on our investigation, he is the main BOSS behind all the missing children cases in Guangnan Province, a direct contact for a foreign biochemical organization within our province,” Phoenix explained.
Ye Xiong had suspected it was related to the missing children cases, but he hadn’t expected him to be the major figure involved.
“Have you figured out his real identity?”
“We’ve only found out that he’s very likely from Jiangnan City. Among all the cities in the province, he stays the longest in Jiangnan and seems to be very familiar with Jiangnan City, so we suspect he’s a local,” Phoenix said.
Hearing this, Ye Xiong fell into contemplation.
Skeleton had appeared near Du Yuehua’s villa several times; could it be a coincidence, or was there some connection to Du Yuehua or some plan in mind?
(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})
“Could it be that he wants to snatch Youyou?” With this thought, Ye Xiong hastily called Du Yuehua.
“Sister Hua, where’s Youyou?”
“Right by my side. What’s going on?”
“Oh, nothing, just checking,” Ye Xiong breathed a sigh of relief, exchanged a few words, and then hung up.
“Be careful next time you encounter Skeleton. This person isn’t easy to deal with,” Ye Xiong warned.

Phoenix had never heard him express concern for her before, so she felt a bit of an odd sensation in her heart.
“If he doesn’t transform, I am more than capable of handling him,” she said confidently.
“But what if he does transform? He’s a second-generation Gene Warrior. If he transforms, not just you but even I wouldn’t be confident about escaping from him alive,” Ye Xiong said seriously.
He had witnessed the power of a Gene Warrior. The third generation’s strength could multiply several times, and as for the second generation, no one could be sure to what extent their strength could reach.
“This is my mission; I cannot back down,” Phoenix said firmly.
“What mission?” Ye Xiong asked, puzzled.
(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})
“The new leader assigned me this task. He demands me to capture Skeleton within a month, dead or alive,” Phoenix replied.
“That bastard Long Zaitian has the nerve, if he’s so capable, let him catch him himself, damn it,” Ye Xiong cursed vehemently.
He had seen Skeleton’s power. After transformation, Phoenix wouldn’t stand a chance.
“That’s just how he is, using an absolute power system. He also said if I don’t complete the mission, he’ll transfer me out of Dragon Scale and demote me to Dragon Claw, letting someone more capable enter Dragon Scale. Oh right, I forgot to tell you, Dragon Soul has been renamed Dragon Scale, while Dragon Source has been renamed Dragon Claw.”
Though he had heard from Long Tianya that Dragon Soul was going to be renamed, knowing it for sure still made him very uncomfortable. After all, he had been the strongest warrior coming out of Dragon Soul.
“He wants to use a competitive model to enhance the strength of Dragon Scale, but little does he know this will only make more people cold-blooded and ruthless.”
“No one is one hundred percent successful—his method can only test individual combat power, and it cannot improve the comprehensive strength of Dragon Soul at all. Many people have already started leaving the Dragon Soul organization,” said Phoenix somberly.
“What about Vermilion Bird?”
“She refused to accept Long Zaitian and had a big argument with the leader before leaving the organization. She’s no longer part of Dragon Soul now.”
“With Long Zaitian doing this, the organization will sooner or later be doomed.”
“By the way, last time you mentioned there was something wrong with your body, what exactly happened on your return?” Phoenix asked.
Ye Xiong told her about the condition of his body, and when Phoenix heard he had almost raped Yang Xinyi, her face showed a look of shock.
(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})
“Ordinary Gene Warriors don’t lose their senses when their pupils change color. It’s only after transformation that the brain becomes uncontrollable. How come you lose your senses just from your pupils changing color?”
“How would I know? It was just my eyes turning red and some red veins appearing on my body. I didn’t actually transform,” Ye Xiong said with a wry smile.
“What exactly is the color when your eyes change?”
Ye Xiong didn’t know whether he should say it or not.
After a long pause, he finally told the truth.
He needed Phoenix’s help, and only with the organization’s resources, he might have a chance to survive.
“Red.”
“How can this be?” Phoenix could hardly believe her ears.
“Red pupils are characteristic of the first-generation Gene Warriors. Weren’t all the research on the first-generation Gene Warriors deemed a failure?”
“Ever since I was buried underground for half a month and narrowly escaped death, I have become like this,” Ye Xiong wasn’t sure what had happened to him.
“I heard that numerous living bodies were experimented on in the research of the first-generation Gene Warriors, not one survived. Unexpectedly, you’ve inadvertently become a first-generation,” Phoenix couldn’t hide her mix of shock and joy.
However, moments later, her face became clouded with a deep worry.
(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})
“What’s wrong?” Ye Xiong asked, confused.
“The backlash of the first-generation Gene Warrior is not something ordinary people can endure. I’m really afraid you won’t make it through,” she said.
Phoenix looked at him with concern and finally made a decision.
“Ye Xiong, I will train you to learn how to control a Gene Warrior’s abilities.”
“The organization has captured quite a few Gene Warriors. I’m familiar with their basic situations, but whether I can succeed, I can’t guarantee,” said Phoenix earnestly.
