"But I never expected that she would actually give birth to a daughter with the same destiny as me... This is a miracle! It's proof that God still favors me!"

"The value of an illegal fate holder is beyond your comprehension... Why does the Federation require that, regardless of whether or not you are willing to abide by federal law, you must not violate the most basic rules and bottom line, registering your fate, and impose heavier penalties on illegal fate holders than on those who violate the law?"

"That's because, naturally, the Federation, with two transcendent beings in the realms of 'omniscience' and 'truth' serving as permanent council members, understands the nature of those with destiny and their impact on society better than anyone else..."

Liu Liangrui took off a medal from his chest, breathed a sigh of relief, then took out a white silk scarf from his pocket and wiped it carefully.

Zhu Yajing, who looked up at Liu Liangrui's actions, suddenly had a feeling, a kind of sixth sense, an inspiration from fate.

It was as if Liu Liangrui was wiping not a medal or a symbol of glory, but a bloody head.

Liu Liangrui's military uniform was covered with lifeless heads.

Noticing that Zhu Yajing finally looked at the medal, Liu Liangrui's tone couldn't help but show obvious pride and contempt.

Liu Liangrui looked down on ordinary people. None of the medals on his body represented a great victory in a war. Liu Liangrui also scoffed at the honors awarded by the Federation. All the medals on his body were customized for himself by him using his power and status.

But Liu Liangrui is not the kind of person who covets honor so much that he would rather turn a blind eye and make up stories. The medals hanging on his body do have real meaning.

Each medal on his body represents a fate owner who died fighting against him.

If you look closely, you can even find that in addition to the different patterns on these medals, there is also a federal hexagram underneath the patterns.

There are different numbers of these stars, with a maximum of five and a minimum of one. Two or three stars are the most common, four and one stars are less common, and five stars are the least common, and they are placed in the most conspicuous position on Liu Liangrui's chest.

What Liu Liangrui had just wiped was a medal with five stars.

There was a hint of pride in his tone.

"Most battles between people with different fates aren't just a one-on-one scramble."

"In most cases, as long as the domains don't overlap at all, the individual hasn't developed anything that extends to other domains, and the death mechanics don't have any special effects, then even if someone with the highest priority fate fights someone with the lowest priority, it's like fighting an ordinary cowboy."

"Whoever draws the gun first, takes aim, and pulls the trigger first, the battle will be over in an instant."

"And this is just a very limited metaphor, because the power of the fate holder can not only be a gun, it can also be a bottle of poison."

"Even the most skilled marksman can be killed if he is accidentally contaminated by even a single drop."

He looked at Zhu Yajing like a fruit farmer looking at ripe fruit, and his tone was sickeningly gentle.

"The 'Curse' ability is a highly concealed poison. To make you even more concealed, and to prevent the Federation's preferential treatment of fate holders from eroding your potential, I will temporarily destroy your ability to speak, turning you into an illegal fate holder who is never exposed."

"Although you started from a humble background and your toxicity is minimal, as your father, I can 'educate' you to thrive, nurturing your seed with pain and suffering... social discrimination, family disdain, and life's difficulties are all the best nourishment."

"I also 'destroyed' your hearing, making you even more of a burden. When I left, I took all our property and left your mother, who had never worked, in dire straits... I was still in the delivery room, holding you, by your mother's side, but I had already planned everything."

Zhu Yajing, with the black mist growing thicker around her, seemed as if her anger had burned out, leaving only ashes in her heart. She looked at Liu Liangrui with a numb expression, feeling that no matter how cruel Liu Liangrui's words were next, they would not make her hate him more than she did now.

But Liu Liangrui's next words rekindled Zhu Yajing's emotions, and the black fog, which seemed to have reached its limit and could not grow any longer, continued to expand.

Liu Liangrui deliberately said in a distressed tone:

"However, it might be the effect of progesterone, or perhaps she gained some insights after giving birth to you. She was once vain and lazy, but she has actually changed..."

"She refused the wet nurse I suggested and insisted on feeding you herself. She was the only one who took care of all the nighttime feedings and diaper changes."

"She learned how to deal with spitting up and spilling milk, how to soothe crying babies, how to put people to sleep, how to help people dress, how to cook nutritious meals..."

"She became patient, diligent, and considerate. She even sacrificed her own time for entertainment and rest to play, sing, and talk with you, a baby, all day long..."

"She seems to have completely transformed into a good woman who is a good wife and mother..."

Although the Zhuqin described by Liu Liangrui was still quite different from the one in Zhu Yajing's impression, it had already taken shape.

However, Liu Liangrui shook his head, and seemed not very satisfied with Zhuqin's transformation.

“But this is not what I want.”

"I don't need a loving mother or a virtuous wife who has come to her senses. I need a hysterical and mean woman who has been abandoned by her husband and is burdened by her deaf-mute children!"

"Only a woman like this can provide the best family atmosphere for my most cherished daughter to grow up in."

Liu Liangrui's righteous remarks, which were against the will of heaven but logically in line with his own purpose, deepened Zhu Yajing's resentment.

Zhu Yajing, who had never swore before, wanted to swear.

Liu Liangrui continued to confess his plan.

"I have to get her back on track."

"So, in order to increase the burden after I left and to weaken your unique blood relationship with your mother, I had her give birth to Zhu Yueyu... a healthy daughter who could talk to her and listen to her teachings, a sister who made you, a burden, even more burdensome."

"I left a letter implying that my departure was related to you, and made no secret of my concern for you, just to let your mother blame everything on you."

"When I left, I took all my assets with me. I sold the villa to someone else and had the security guards evict you. I left her and you with only the small apartment you had before, and plunged her, who once had no worries about food and clothing, into poverty."

"Stripped of all the wealth in her life, she, who had never been a virtuous woman to begin with, returned to her former self in the harsh environment: anxious, mean, jealous, and vain... The difference was that she no longer had her youth to leverage, only two more burdens."

"With this, a family environment that allows you, the Cursed One, to thrive is complete."

Liu Liangrui inadvertently revealed Zhu Yajing's fate, and then deliberately said in a regretful tone as if he had made a mistake:

"But unfortunately, I still underestimated your mother... She may not be a good woman, but she is truly a good mother. The saying "A mother is strong" is not an exaggeration when applied to her."

"I had hoped that by the time I came back to find you, you would have grown up, but I miscalculated. You don't seem to have grown up in an environment full of pressure, harshness, resentment, and disgust."

"It even seems that she is exhausted from struggling for life, but she still has the energy to devote all her energy to giving you love."

"Even during financial difficulties, he thought about buying hearing aids for you. When he found out you were being bullied in a normal school, he didn't hesitate to transfer you to a school for special needs people..."

"The woman who couldn't even take care of herself in the past has actually become a great single mother! I can't help but cheer for her!"

Liu Liangrui squatted down again, and with the headless female corpse still in the corridor, he said to Zhu Yajing sincerely:

"Zhu Yajing, you really have a very good mother!"

Bang!

The black energy on Zhu Yajing's body rose again.

Now there was only one thought in Zhu Yajing's mind, which was to kill Liu Liangrui in front of her. The black fog symbolizing resentment was so thick that it almost dripped water.

But having lost her ability to move and with her fate suppressed, all she could do was feel resentment.

"What an incredible hatred... surely it could create a curse targeting me, one that even I couldn't resist, an unimaginably powerful curse..."

Liu Liangrui stretched out his hand, passed through the black fog, and pressed it on Zhu Yajing's head without any harm. The corners of his mouth were grinning and his eyes were extremely cruel.

The black fog, which is almost the materialization of the concept of resentment, does not seem to be as evil and terrifying as the expression on Liu Liangrui's face.

He still spoke words that could stir up growing resentment in Zhu Yajing's heart.

"By the way, now that you've reached your initial awakening, you must be aware that the ability 'Curse' is affected by the target of resentment and will only affect the target. It's a very targeted ability."

"In other words, the curse condensed from the resentment in you is only directed at me. You are now a gun that is only pointed at me, a bottle of poison that is only effective on me... But how could I possibly go to such great lengths to do something so thankless?"

Liu Liangrui's smile became more and more weird.

Generally speaking, as a person with a battle-hardened destiny, even if he has not fought for many years, he will not make the mistake of actively exposing his abilities.

But now, in order to further deepen Zhu Yajing's resentment, he, who believed he had already won, did not mind sharing this secret that even the Federation did not know.

Many people with this fate are able to achieve the same effect in areas not covered by this by taking a roundabout way. Liu Liangrui doesn't understand the realm of "power", but he can also make people with this fate use him...

By "destroying" the thinking ability of the person who holds this fate, only conditioned reflexes and basic physiological activities are retained!

Completely turn the owner of the fate into an unconscious gun in his hand!

Even though Zhu Yajing is his daughter.

……

Under Zhu Yajing's angry gaze, Liu Liangrui withdrew his hand, stood up again, then clenched his fist and slapped it on his palm, looking as if he had suddenly realized something.

"I almost forgot, you have a very good sister."

After saying that, without paying any attention to Zhu Yajing who was surrounded by a layer of black mist, Liu Liangrui turned around and prepared to enter Zhu Yajing's house, the door of which had been open.

But he had just taken one step when he stopped moving forward.

Because he heard the mechanical sound of the elevator running in the corridor, which was getting louder and louder.

For some reason, Liu Liangrui had a premonition that the elevator might open on this floor.

So he changed direction, walked to the elevator door, glanced at the number displayed on the screen, and planned to take care of the unlucky passerby.

Liu Liangrui is not worried about the surveillance cameras in the elevator because he can destroy the cameras' field of view.

Sure enough, as if in response to Liu Liangrui's premonition, the elevator stopped at this floor.

Before the door opened, a calm and indifferent young male voice leaked out from the gap of the closed elevator door.

"Your story has enlightened me."

"Mr. Liu Liangrui."

The Silence of the Lambs: Chapter 131: A Close Neighbor is worse than a Distant Relative

This strange voice, so calm and indifferent that it was eerily calm, came from behind the elevator door, which made Liu Liangrui slightly stunned.

The elevator door slowly opened.

A young man wearing loose home pajamas and pants, and slippers that covered half of his foot, who looked like he was going out to take out the trash before going to bed at night and coming home, stood in the elevator, looking at Liu Liangrui quietly.

This young man has a thin face and deep eyes that seem like a bottomless abyss. His skin is just the right amount of white with a healthy glow. He looks ordinary, but upon closer inspection, he has a mysterious charm that makes people want to explore deeper.

At the same time, this person's temperament is very calm, as if nothing in reality can really affect his emotions, and his expression is indifferent as if he exists outside the world.

This scene made Liu Liangrui shudder.

A strange voice, a familiar face. The person standing in the elevator, calling out his name... was none other than the dead man whose body he had mutilated! Even their clothes were exactly the same!

The dead man is alive? But how did he get out of the elevator?

There is no ability in the file of [Two-Faced Man] to explain the current situation. So, has he fallen into the trap of the owner of the unknown fate, or is there something wrong with the man in front of him?

After a moment of panic, Liu Liangrui, who was still the federal commander who had fought with countless people with different fates in different fields, quickly calmed down and made various guesses in his heart.

With his mind racing, he took decisive action and reached out to Yu Xiu De extremely quickly, aiming directly at the other's left chest, which was the heart.

Mastering analytical information, interpreting the abilities brought by the other party's fate, and understanding the other party's fighting style are indeed the best strategies for fighting between fate owners.

But that is too idealistic.

Liu Liangrui, who had fought on the battlefield, knew that in most cases, in an encounter where there was no time to prepare, taking action first and activating one's abilities first was always the best option!

Even if the opponent has the ability and means to counterattack, this is still the best choice under the current circumstances. Liu Liangrui has sufficient confidence in his abilities. His "destruction" ability has a high priority and can even shatter the death mechanism of some fate owners.

His palm quickly placed on Yu Xiu De's chest.

Liu Liangrui's palm strike was not very powerful, because he needed to maintain his body balance while moving quickly. His attack was not based on the size of the force, but on the power of his destiny.

This is a blow of "destruction" of very high purity.

If this blow landed on the ground, the internal structure of this 32-story building made of reinforced concrete would be destroyed instantly and then completely collapsed!

When it falls on a person, although it will not turn the person into ashes, it will be enough to penetrate the person without any resistance like blood and cause him to explode.

Therefore, in order to avoid losing balance, Liu Liangrui's movements are usually not too large. It is more like a light push than a palm strike... It cannot even push a standing adult.

But his confidence disappeared instantly when his palm touched Yu Xiude's chest, and was replaced by a panic that had not appeared in many years.

Because nothing happened.

The man did not turn into a blood flower, and his ability had no effect at all.

The man who came back from the dead remained indifferent. He just slowly raised his hand and gently slapped away the hand that was on his chest.

He didn't use any force, just simply pushed it away, but Liu Liangrui seemed to be electrocuted and took several steps back!

He looked at Yu Xiu De in front of him in shock and doubt, and his scalp tingled. He didn't understand why his ability had failed, and he couldn't understand why an ordinary person who was just an "anchor" in the files of the Harmonious Symbiosis Bureau could make his ability fail.

Yu Xiu De took a step forward, walked out of the elevator and came to the corridor. When his slippers stepped on the blood-stained floor, the filth automatically retreated.

He glanced at the headless bamboo zither in the corridor, and the blackened Zhu Yajing who was sitting powerlessly on the ground. He shook his head slightly, and his indifferent face still showed no obvious emotion fluctuations.

A peaceful voice was heard in the corridor where there was one corpse and three living people.

"As the commander-in-chief of the Federation, your insights into the battles of those with destiny, especially your so-called 'cowboy theory', have benefited me greatly and answered many of my questions."

"But in a dream, no matter how fast you shoot or how powerful the gun is, it's just a dream, isn't it?"

When Liu Liangrui's attention was mainly focused on guarding against the influence of the "dark" field involved in the [Two-Faced Man], and ignoring the possibility of the "dream" field, and was dragged into the most hidden hypothetical dream among the [Nightmare] abilities, everything was too late.

The advantage that taking the initiative brings to [Nightmare] is overwhelming!
