The mysterious figure was clearly not satisfied by Dr. Esen's promises.
"What you're saying has no meaning, because none of it has succeeded, so your value has not been demonstrated."
Dr. Esen suddenly became hesitant.
The mysterious figure also fell silent for a moment, then suddenly asked, "Previously, you used your own genes, fused with those of the Empire's Crown Prince, and failed. Why?"
Dr. Esen looked up in shock; he had conducted the experiment in utmost secrecy, with no one around and having avoided all surveillance cameras, using his own genetic samples in place of Ji Xinghe's.
Still, it was discovered.
After taking a deep breath, Dr. Esen said, "Simply put, it's because I'm not as powerful as General Ji Xinghe, so my genes are weak and would get devoured by the Crown Prince's genes instead of fusing. The Crown Prince's genes were extracted from a body and lacked sufficient vitality, relying solely on devouring was not enough to complete the cultivation."
