Chapter 222 Are You Good Enough?

The memories that replayed over and over again in his dreams at midnight were like shackles, locking him forever in that hell.

"Your father and I are old friends. I want to give him justice more than anyone else."

The man was dressed in an interstellar silver-gray military uniform, and his gaze towards him was heavy and regretful:

"As the only survivor of the Pei family, your life and safety are of great importance to the Corps."

The warm big hand placed on his thin shoulder and patted it hard:

"Pei Yuan, Uncle Li will protect you, don't worry."

"The established facts cannot be undone. You are still young. You must learn to let go and not let yourself get bogged down in hatred."

His figure was reflected in the dark glass wall.

Although he was only eleven years old, he looked like a lonely ghost crawling out of hell.

Since then, there have been many arguments about him in the institute.

"He's the orphan of the previous dean, and he's indeed gifted and intelligent, but so what.

I can’t believe an eleven-year-old has that kind of aura. It’s really creepy.”

"Dean Pei Huan is also a young genius, but he is approachable and friendly. Everyone loves him. Why is his son..."

"Shh, talk less and be more polite. You are new here and don't understand the situation.

I've watched him grow up, and he wasn't like this before."

"Anyway, I don't want to work with him. I've already applied for a department transfer, and it should be approved today."

…

Pei Yuan couldn't help but wonder, could falling in love with someone also cause cracks in that heart that was once immune to all poisons, making it crave for a little recognition?

He obviously doesn't care what others think of him.

But the unknown and increasingly repulsive emotion in her eyes still hurt him.

"Do you think I'm a monster too?"

His voice was as gentle as possible, but it sounded like a cold and damp ghost trying hard to appear gentle.

“But I never regretted killing them.

My only regret is throwing you into that pool of slime."

Chi Wan blinked in confusion and instinctively took a step back.

Pei Yuan pressed on step by step, but his eyes dimmed because of her retreat.

Chi Wan swallowed and whispered:

"What is this place... the slime pool?"

The grey eyes beneath the lenses were so deep they were almost black, and his pale skin made him appear somewhat broken, a rare sight at this moment.

The suffocating emptiness in those eyes revealed an imperceptible plea.

Even humility is hidden in the shadows, making it difficult to distinguish between the light and the dark.

He chuckled out of habit, hiding everything:

"When you remember everything later, you can stab me as many times as you want to take revenge."

"Just can you...can't leave me."

Chi Wan didn't know why that memory made him so worried, nor did she know where the slime pool was. She changed the subject:

"Since you killed so many people, why haven't you been sentenced?"

Pei Yuan looked away and said calmly:

"Those killed were the murderers who harmed my Pei family. Furthermore, I made great contributions to research and development. Marshal Li, the highest leader of the Legion, personally came forward to defend me. The trial lasted for a whole year, and in the end, I was declared not guilty."

The storms of the past are always expressed in just a few words.

Apart from him, only the dead witnessed the massacre.

The murderer of his family was identified when he was twelve years old.

Li Ming comforted him, saying that the murderers would all be caught soon.

He has been waiting.

Even when he was working all night at the institute, interstellar news was broadcast around his laboratory table 24 hours a day.

But he waited for a whole year.

I haven't received any accurate news yet.

After awakening the sentinel physique and teleportation ability in advance, he quietly sneaked into the Interstellar Legion.

After eavesdropping on the conversation between Li Ming and his subordinates, he realized that not only were there many forces involved, but also a big family was involved. In addition, it was difficult to obtain solid evidence. Due to many obstacles, it was impossible to catch all the murderers.

He still remembered Li Ming's helpless sigh:

"You mean, can a person suddenly be possessed by a spirit, or even gain superpowers they didn't have before?"

"Marshal, I haven't seen it, so it shouldn't be possible."

The sky was extremely dark that night.

At that time, he only felt that his awakened supernatural power was the help given to him by the more than 300 lives of the Pei family who had passed away.

A great help in avenging the family.

By teleporting, he detected the specific locations of everyone in advance.

One hundred and thirty-six people who had not been caught were killed overnight.

Precise teleportation, raising and lowering the knife.

One after another people died under his knife.

He didn't even spare a glance at the corpses of those people, he was killing like crazy.

When Li Ming arrived in the morning light, he happened to be standing in the lobby on the first floor, with a river of blood formed by the corpses from the seven-story building beneath his feet.

When he looked at him at that time, the knowledgeable Marshal of the Interstellar Legion showed an expression of extreme horror.

For the first time, I looked at him as if he were a monster.

Chi Wan didn't know what Pei Yuan was thinking.

All I could see were his eyes that were like cold, dark stars, but most of them were blocked by the lenses.

He looked at her and smiled gently, which was incongruous, yet revealed a strange harmony:

"Teleportation is a really good ability, isn't it?"

The hand silently supported her waist, the chin gently rested on the top of her head, and the white neck lightly brushed her cheek. The slightly cold breath on his body was hard to describe, but it smelled good.

The voice shook from the Adam's apple, with a muffled laugh:

"No matter what, you can't get rid of me in this life."

"I can do anything."

"If you tell me to kneel, I'll kneel. If you tell me to crawl, I'll crawl."

"Or if you want to play something exciting, I can play with you 24 hours a day."

The hand on her waist tightened, and then Chi Wan met his extremely focused eyes.

Pei Yuan's lips are extremely pale in color. Although his lips are fleshy and plump, they only have a light sheen due to the pale color.

He continued to open his lips slightly, his voice tempting the release of desire:

"Whatever those men can do, I can do better than them, to the extreme."

"I don't have a temper. Even if you step on me and make me your dog, I will just obediently call you master."

Pei Yuan spoke as he gently took off his gold-rimmed glasses. Without the embellishment of the glasses, his superior face actually looked even more handsome and noble, even docile and gullible.

"That guy Shi used potion to seduce you today, didn't he?"

"Half of that potion came from my research institute. I've already announced that it's forbidden from being sold to anyone else. If you like it in the future, I'll be the only one who can use it to please you."

"I can develop something even more powerful."

Pei Yuan said this as he moved closer to Chi Wan, leaving only a centimeter between them.

Their breathing intertwined.

His half-closed eyes traced her lips, with a mad desire that was determined to get what he wanted.

His voice deepened a little, and he spoke leisurely:

"Is that good enough?"
