Zheng Xingguang leaned against the wall, the peach wood sword lying in front of him humming violently, each breath carrying the smell of rust.
The heavenly soldiers had been torn to pieces, and the scattered golden beans were losing their luster one by one.
He gritted his teeth, about to unleash the sword technique again, when suddenly a sound of the ceiling collapsing came from the guest room door behind him.
Zheng Xingguang immediately realized that Bai Ziheng was using a feint.
"Brother-in-law, are you playing dirty tricks on me?!"
Bai Ziheng didn't say much, and once again transformed into a white wolf and pounced from the shadows.
After tearing the remaining heavenly soldiers to shreds, the claws pressed down on Zheng Xingguang's head.
They pinned him against the wall.
"Listen to me, kid, you don't need to get involved in this. I promise you, I won't hurt any innocent people."
"Whether someone is innocent or not is not for you to judge... Brother-in-law..."
Zheng Xingguang still held the peach wood sword in his hand, the tip of the sword trembling as it aimed at the white wolf's chest, but he no longer had the strength to thrust it forward even an inch.
"So, are you the one to judge?"
The white wolf's golden vertical pupils stared straight at Zheng Xingguang, his voice rumbling from his chest, low and cold.
"I've saved you several times, I've saved your sister several times, and now you're pointing a sword at me? Do you know what that person in the room behind you did?"
"With your judgment, how can you decide who's good and who's bad?"
Zheng Xingguang opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything.
"There are many things in this world that you have to decide. What can you do?"
"You can't do anything because you're weak."
"If you want to uphold your principles, the principles of the Special Administration Bureau, then become strong enough to hold your head down and pin you against the wall like I do, instead of trying to attack me with righteousness after I've subdued you."
Bai Lang's voice didn't rise an inch, but every word was like a nail driven into Zheng Xingguang's eardrums.
"Listen to me, kid. I'm a soldier too, and I've served my country. Don't think that only your Special Administration Bureau is qualified to talk about justice. Now—don't force me to kill you."
A scream came from the room.
The white wolf's ears suddenly perked up.
Something's not right. That monster came to seek revenge on Kang Zhengyuan. Luo Yao said it hunted down everyone who participated in the experiment for a full ten years.
The only threat in that room was it, but it was also the one screaming in agony at that moment.
He glanced at Zheng Xingguang, who was pinned against the wall, and with a gentle flick of his claws, the young agent's pupils dilated instantly, and he lost consciousness.
The white wolf loosened its paws, casually placed him against the wall in the corridor, turned around and tore open the iron door of the guest room with one claw.
The room was a complete mess.
The monster was huddled in the corner, its two sharp, long arms tightly clutching its head.
Those eyes had turned completely crimson, and the pupils were contracting violently, as if they were making a final stand against something.
"Give her back to me—give her back to me! She's my daughter—!!"
Kang Zhengyuan huddled in a corner by the bed, holding his daughter.
He was completely terrified, his back pressed against two walls, his body completely enveloping the little girl.
Seeing a werewolf monster barge in at that moment terrified them even more.
"No, please don't come any closer!! I beg you!! My daughter is still so young!"
The little girl in his arms buried her head in his chest, her shoulders trembling slightly, and the talisman star on her hair clip was mostly covered in dust.
It only emitted a faint, faint glow.
Bai Ziheng stared at Kang Zhengyuan, then glanced at the roaring monster.
Before coming, Luo Yao showed him the list and files of the predators that were hunting him.
Each of those dozen or so people had directly participated in the gene fusion experiment back then.
Kang Zhengyuan's file was last updated last week.
"Kang Zhengyuan".
The white wolf's deep voice came over.
"What exactly are you doing?"
Kang Zhengyuan trembled: "Wh-what... I didn't do anything—I just wanted to protect my daughter—"
"Who is that you're holding in your arms?"
Bai Ziheng stared into his eyes and asked, word by word.
"She's my daughter!!"
"You've never even been married, where did you get a daughter from?"
Kang Zhengyuan was stunned.
His lips trembled as he opened and closed his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but the sound got stuck in his throat and he couldn't get it out.
daughter......
Yes, my daughter.
He takes her to school every day, picks her up from school every day, takes her to the park on weekends, and tells her bedtime stories. His daughter's name is Kang Xiaoman.
Xiaoman, every time he called her name, he felt that the empty space in his heart was filled.
wrong.
He is not married...
He has no memory of a wife, no wedding, and no memory of receiving a newborn at the door of the delivery room.
Where did that daughter come from?
So what exactly is he holding in his arms?
The next second, Kang Zhengyuan's eyes began to fill with bloodshot veins.
Blood gushed from the side of his neck.
The little girl bit through Kang Zhengyuan's carotid artery, her movements so fast that even Bai Ziheng couldn't react in that instant.
Kang Zhengyuan opened his mouth, made an unintelligible gasp from his throat, and then fell to the side.
Before he collapsed, his fingers, which were still holding his daughter, were mechanically clenching, as if instinct was telling him that he was protecting something.
The girl stood up from his arms and wiped the blood that was still dripping from her mouth.
The bloodstains on his cheek were rubbed away with the back of his hand, turning into a wet, dark red mess.
It made her beautiful big eyes look especially bright and clear.
"Actually, he was really good to me, and I originally wanted to keep him around a little longer."
She turned her head and touched her disheveled braids with her small hands, which were still stained with blood and hadn't been wiped clean.
His actions revealed an arrogance completely out of character for his age.
Then she tilted her head and looked at the monster huddled in the corner.
"Chen Li, do you remember me?"
Upon hearing the name, the monster's entire body jolted violently as if it had been electrocuted.
Its claws slid down its head, and its scarlet pupils began to contract and dilate violently, as if desperately trying to make out the face of the person in front of it.
"You...you are...you are..."
"Haven't you been looking for me for over ten years?"
The girl took a step forward and pointed at herself with her blood-stained finger.
That smile was still sweet, so sweet it sent chills down your spine.
"You killed all the researchers who conducted this experiment back then, just to find me, right? How come you don't recognize me now that I'm standing right in front of you?"
She tilted her head and smiled like an innocent young girl catching up with an old friend.
Then he deliberately raised his hand to cover his face, peeking out an eye through his fingers to look at the trembling monster.
"Or is it that I'm disguised as your daughter, making you reluctant to kill me?"
