The Law of Heaven

Chapter 81 Is this your girlfriend?
Deep within the misty mountains, towering peaks stand in rows, and lush cliffs are covered with cypress trees. Some people sit on the edge of the cliff overlooking the large lake below. The lake water ripples in the torrential rain, as if silent memories are stirring in their hearts.

The sound of rain, like the sound of the tide, came and went. The man wrapped his black raincoat tighter and sighed softly.

"Your health isn't good, do you really want to get soaked in the rain like this?"

A person wearing a grotesque mask appeared behind him like a ghost, gently advising, "You suffered a severe injury last night; you should go to your hibernation pod to rest now."

The man replied indifferently, "I've been sleeping too much these past few years. My head is all foggy. If I don't get out and clear my head, I'll start to forget who I am. If I lose my temper, won't you be the ones who suffer?"

The rain poured down, accompanied by lightning and thunder.

"Okay, then I'll sit here and keep you company in the rain."

"Stop pretending. If you appeared in front of me in your true form, I would respect your honesty."

"You really want to know my true identity?"

“If it weren’t for the fact that your crown rank is incorrect, I might suspect that you are the famous Spirit King.”

"Then you are indeed flattering me. I am not as good as him."

"Gospel, who exactly are you?"

“I am your friend, Ayun. Everyone in the world fears you and calls you Experimental Subject Alpha, but only I still see you as a human being, because you have a human heart.”

Mr. Gospel stayed by his side, accompanying him in the rain, just like in the old days.

"friend?"

Ruan Yun stretched his hand out from his raincoat. His right hand was covered with fine dragon scales, and his bones had long since been deformed and transformed into dragon-like claws, as sharp and cold as blades.

He tried to clench his paws, shaking his head and chuckling, "Would my friends turn me into this grotesque mess?"

Mr. Gospel sighed, “Ah Yun, I have no other choice. This is a curse you two were born with, a destiny you were destined to face. Only evolution can alleviate your pain; otherwise, you would have died ten years ago.”

I went through all sorts of hardships to find you, and I did have my own selfish reasons. I confess, I wanted to use you to open the gates of God's kingdom and uncover all the mysteries of this world.

But what harm does this do you? Your current suffering is merely a small test on the path to godhood. You are destined to become a god, while I can only admire you.

Ruan Yun replied calmly, "But I don't believe that there are curses and blessings in this world without a reason."

Mr. Gospel smiled slightly: "Because you are the one chosen by God, this is your gift. If I had your gift, you wouldn't have had a chance to succeed."

Ruan Yun gave a self-deprecating laugh, then suddenly coughed violently, the blood he vomited was actually golden.

It resembles molten lava, like gold.

"Your injuries are too severe. The extinction energy pulse has caused enormous damage to your genes. This was our mistake. Who would have thought that Xiao Qi would have such methods?"

Mr. Gospel recalled last night's nightmare and sighed, "It seems your sister really did receive help from a master, enabling her to gain power greater than yours while maintaining rationality. Currently, her rank is higher than yours. If we hadn't intervened in time, you would have been devoured by her, becoming the food she needs for evolution."

Ruan Yun reached out and washed the blood from her palm with rainwater, giving a mocking smile: "Does she want to eat me up too?"

Mr. Gospel lamented, "Yes, that's human nature. Human nature often reveals itself in the face of life and death. Even the closest of relatives might not be able to resist the temptation to evolve into God, would they?"

Ruan Yun said softly, "She's grown up."

Mr. Gospel narrowed his eyes: "Have you softened your heart?"

Ruan Yun shook her head and said, "Just as your assessment said, she has great power, but her underlying personality is too kind. Kindness is weakness, and weakness is the greatest original sin. No matter how much civilization tries to cover it up, this world still cannot change the law of the jungle where the strong prey on the weak."

The weak don't deserve to live... Since I'm going to be eaten sooner or later anyway, I might as well grant my wish. She's my blood relative, and only I have the right to eat her.

If she becomes a part of me, then I'll never have to worry about her being bullied again.

The rain intensified.

He looked up through the rain, his eerie vertical pupils a shocking crimson, tinged with menacing bloodshot veins.

"Gospel."

He said softly, "I'm going to eat."

It was clearly a soft murmur, yet it sounded like the roar of a dragon, penetrating the deepest part of the wind and rain.

Mr. Gospel was very pleased with his enlightenment and exclaimed, "It seems that my teachings to you over the years have not been in vain; you have grasped the laws governing the workings of this world."

As for the issue of blood-based foods, you don't need to worry. We've mastered the latest induction technology to make humans without genetic contamination fall ill. They've carefully selected several high-quality foods for you; you'll be satisfied.

Ruan Yun hummed in agreement, then suddenly asked, "According to intelligence from our inside sources, the Deep Blue Alliance has activated its full combat readiness, attempting to locate the members of the Bliss Society. At this critical juncture, is it really alright?"

Mr. Gospel sighed helplessly: "It's hard to say, but there's no other way now. Your food supply chain absolutely cannot be cut off."

Logically speaking, if you could forcibly seize control of the Mythical Body, you could exacerbate the genetic pollution in this city, making it teeming with blood and gore, saving us the trouble of searching... Ah Yun, are you really not capable of doing this?"

Ruan Yun was silent for a moment, then shook her head and said, "No, I am indeed not as good as my sister in this respect."

Mr. Gospel clicked his tongue, turned around and said, "In that case, let them come. When this group arrives, it will be the end of this ceremony, and I will personally open the gates of God's Kingdom."

At that time, you will also see the true face of God.

Mr. Gospel turned and left.

Ruan Yun was left sitting alone on the edge of the cliff.

The torrential rain gradually subsided, and the clouds and mist dispersed.

Ruan Yun covered his throbbing forehead and seemed to see a stunningly beautiful woman walking through the mountain stream amidst the misty rain. She glanced at him casually, her eyes sparkling like cherry blossoms falling from a branch, a beauty that evoked sorrow.

A fleeting glance felt like an eternity.

When Ruan Yun came to her senses, she found the mountain stream deserted, with only a base of steel fortresses hidden in the jungle, like a tomb.

At the end of the graveyard was a dark forest path, winding and turning without end, as if leading to the heavens.

On the twelfth floor of the Deep Blue United Building, the assembly meeting of eleven combat units concluded. After receiving their mission notifications, the elites departed one after another, updating their equipment in the logistics department and heading to various corners of the city.

Only the two captains and deputy captains of the tenth combat sequence fell silent in the meeting room, looking at each other in bewilderment.

"Even though I knew it was someone with connections, it's still too much for them not to show up for the meeting."

Yunxiu slammed her hand on the table angrily and said, "Just a few days ago, Brother Ruanyang told me to get along well with him, but he immediately caused this mess?"

The air currents were swirling, her long, wine-red hair rippled in the wind, her black suit trembled, and her full, almost exaggerated breasts heaved violently.

"Captain, don't be angry."

After tidying up the documents, Shang Yan, a man with the look of a corporate slave, said helplessly, "We are the famous reserve team, and everyone who comes here is a relative. We can't expect anything from them. Expecting them to have the qualities of soldiers is just wishful thinking."

Yunxiu snorted coldly: "Then what is he doing here? Is he just here to eat? If this guy doesn't do anything for me, he won't get a single contribution point."

unacceptable.

She's seen plenty of useless people over the years.

But this was the first time I'd ever seen a pigeon.

Yunxiu had initially held some expectations for the newcomer with exceptional combat power and had even prepared relevant materials to give him special training. However, the guy was completely absent from the meeting and didn't even say hello.

This is outrageous! Just then, Jian Mo, whose body was wrapped in bandages, walked over. He had just been promoted to the second combat rank and saw this scene, so he came over to smooth things over.

"Captain Yun, it's like this..."

He explained tactfully: "Director Jiang Hai put him in the combat ranks, and judging from his combat capabilities, there's nothing wrong with doing so. But you know Director Jiang Hai's temper, plus he's forgetful, so probably no one has told him about the rules of the combat ranks."

If he has offended you in any way, I apologize on his behalf, and I hope you won't hold it against a newcomer. After this mission is over, I will take him to the Crab Kingdom to make amends.

Yunxiu, who loved eating crabs, nodded slightly upon hearing this: "Yes, that's certainly Director Jiang Hai's style. But, hasn't anyone reminded him?"

Jian Mo said with a wry smile, "They've probably all forgotten."

Yunxiu waved her hand: "Alright."

Jian Mo shook his head and smiled wryly. He took out his phone and called that kid. Just as the call started to go off, he suddenly felt a wave of heat wash over him.

His hair was burned and curled up.

He suddenly narrowed his eyes and dodged away like a ghost.

"Yan Yan?"

He frowned, realizing that the visitor was up to no good.

"Mr. Jane, it's been a long time."

Yan Yan suddenly appeared in front of him, revealing a wild smile, and said excitedly, "It sounds like you know that guy, right? I came to find him today, but he didn't come. Are you scared?"

Jian Mo frowned slightly: "What do you want with him?"

Yan Yan blinked, then subconsciously licked her lips: "I think there's a misunderstanding between the Yan family and him. I want to apologize to him in person and clear things up. But it's not a good idea for him to keep avoiding me like this."

You said you and he are friends. If I break both your legs, will he come looking for me?

Jian Mo narrowed his eyes, his gaze turning dangerous.

Just then, his phone call was connected, and the boy's lazy voice rang out.

"If you want to apologize, then show some remorse. You don't need to come see me. Whoever is in charge of your Yan family, have them lead a group of people to kneel at the company entrance for three days and three nights."

But given what you just said, even if you agree to my conditions, I'll break both your legs first. Watch out, I'll be back for you.

The phone hangs up.

Jian Mo hadn't expected that this kid would overhear their conversation, and she immediately felt a bit of a headache.

Yan Yan paused for a second after hearing these words, then couldn't help but scoff: "Does he know who I am?"

Jianmo shrugged and said helplessly, "I don't know, but he probably doesn't care who you are."

Yan Yan sneered and turned to leave.

"interesting."

Jian Mo watched his retreating figure. Although she had confidence in the kid's abilities, she couldn't help but feel a little worried.

This lunatic's skills are pretty strong.

Jianmo suddenly remembered something: "Wait, I still haven't told him the rules of the battle order..."

Traffic was congested in the MixC shopping district in the early morning, and crowds gathered at the subway station entrance. Commuters ran across the zebra crossing with umbrellas in hand, and occasionally a horn rang out, breaking the silence.

A person was walking along the long street, wearing a black baseball cap, sunglasses, and a mask, a stand-up collar sweatshirt, jeans, and gray sneakers.

He was completely covered from head to toe.

Not even a crack was visible.

Aihara's evil spirit avatar hung up the phone and sneered inwardly: "That stupid Yan family is up to their old tricks again. Luckily, they managed to trick Xiao Qi into becoming their bodyguard. I hope they don't catch them, or I'll scatter their ashes to the wind."

Then he pulled out the SIM card and put it in his pocket.

He couldn't help but yawn.

I spent the whole night yesterday trying to calm Xiao Qi down, and I finally managed to stabilize her emotions. Otherwise, if she went out in that state, she might very well have gone on a rampage in the street.

Then things will be beyond control.

It's clear that although Xiao Qi possesses immense power, she is still a soft-hearted girl at heart.

It's quite a contrast.

As of now, Ruan Qi is still relatively depressed, but fortunately she can move around normally. It is clear that she also wants to know about the mystery of her origins.

At that moment, the little girl hid in his shadow like a ghost, and no passersby noticed her.

This seems to have a lively effect.

Xiao Qi has a lot of good stuff.

Ruan Qi yawned behind him, his childish voice carrying a cat-like laziness: "Your little companion is quite cautious, not using your true form but creating a clone instead. A rather rare living spirit, was it a gift from the boss?"

"Yes, you have excellent insight."

Aihara's eyes twitched slightly. This little girl acted like a naive little girl in front of his real self, but now she was putting on an act in front of his clone.

"Hmph, today's operation is crucial, don't mess it up. Your boss said he wanted me to help train you properly, so I'll take this opportunity to see what you're capable of."

Ruan Qi said in a condescending tone.

Ha, when the hell did I say that?
Aihara muttered to himself.

However, since Xiao Qi has started showing off, it proves that her condition has improved a lot, so there's no need to worry.

Aihara turned the corner and finally saw that aloof figure in an open-air cafe.

Jiang Youqing sat at the wooden table eating breakfast, her long, black hair rising and falling in the breeze like a floating stroke of ink.

Her profile was as white as jade, and her eyes and brows exuded a cold and aloof air. Her icy demeanor alone deterred men who tried to strike up a conversation with her.

My beloved concubine looks stunning today. She wears a spotless white shirt with a unique tie design tied in a bow at the chest, a black fitted skirt that accentuates her fair and slender legs, and black high heels.

Her trench coat was still hanging on the chair next to her.

She just looks a bit like a female secretary.

A van was parked in front of the coffee shop, and Nurse Li and Xiao Hui were probably inside.

Aihara leaned closer and couldn't help but take a few more glances at his beloved's waist and hip curves; they were indeed very beautiful.

"What, is this your girlfriend?"

Xiao Qi's voice suddenly rang out.
