Aisie Hall stood in the wind and snow, dressed in a black dress, her face pale and alluring, her aura strange and effeminate.
Her gaze towards Chu Liyue flickered slightly. She stretched out her arm, her soft, boneless form catching a few falling snowflakes in her palm. The snowflakes were cool to the touch and then melted.
Her voice also took on a hint of coldness: "As expected of a darling of fate protected by God, Miss Chu's strategy and vision are truly remarkable."
This was the first time she had ever felt like someone had seen right through her.
Chu Liyue took a light breath, the icy air rushing into her body, making her mind even clearer.
Her gaze was colder than the wind and snow, and she stared unblinkingly into Aisie Hall's eyes as she spoke, word by word:
"The substance inside him is reagent number one, which you used to target me, but he blocked it and it entered his body."
"Is it right?"
This time it's a question.
Years ago, the reagent that came straight for her changed her fate and Xiao Wujie's.
In order to uncover the truth and cure Xiao Wujie's illness, she desperately climbed upwards, and with her extraordinary talent and ruthless methods, she stood at the top of the world.
Xiao Wujie gradually transformed from a normal person into a sickly man whose life was constantly in danger, with endless pain accompanying him for the rest of his life.
The person behind the scenes erased all traces, and after years of painstaking investigation, a complex web of clues slowly unfolded.
Following the clues, step by step, the root of everything points to the person in front of you.
His eerie purple eyes flickered with complex and unpredictable emotions, and the smile on Aisie Hall's face had quietly vanished without him noticing.
The wind and snow continued to blow, and in the vast天地 (heaven and earth), only the sound of the wind howled.
Aisie Hall remained silent for a long time before finally uttering a single word: "Yes."
Chu Liyue stood ramrod straight, her voice so cold it seemed to freeze the howling wind and snow around her for a moment:
"Why?"
This is something she couldn't find out.
Even if it wasn't for her own sake, she really wanted to know why Xiao Wujie had suffered so much for her for so many years.
Those three short words stirred ripples in the unpredictable depths of Aisie Hall's eyes.
A look of unprecedented bewilderment appeared in her eyes.
Chu Liyue asked coldly, "As revenge for refusing your invitation to join God back then?"
She belongs to the Biohazard Department in God, and was personally brought in by Wood Punch, the highest leader of the Biohazard Department and one of the three chairmen of God.
This incident caused quite a stir within God's Biochemistry Department at the time.
But few people know that long before Woodpunk, when she was only a teenager, the man in front of her, Aisie Hall, had personally invited her to join God.
Despite her young age, she had a keen eye for people. The sinister aura surrounding Aishie Hall made her feel extremely repulsed by her, and God's reputation in the world was not good either. She sharply rejected Aishie Hall's invitation.
Shortly after that, the syringe containing reagent number one came straight at her, but was eventually blocked by Xiao Wujie.
Aisie Hall's eyes flickered slightly, and he lowered his gaze and murmured, "Yes and no."
She paused for a few seconds, her tone low and enigmatic, carrying an air of mystery and elusiveness.
“You are twenty-three years old this year. I sensed your existence even before you were born.”
"A diviner cannot divine for himself; I can see the trajectory of everyone's fate, but I cannot see my own end."
"But your birth brought me a strong sense of crisis. There always seemed to be a voice in my heart telling me that you would be a threat to me."
She looked up at the sky, her gaze even more enigmatic and unpredictable, her soft, low-pitched voice seeming to echo with a sense of destiny, and she said:
"Fate is a very mysterious thing. It cannot be seen or touched, but people can clearly feel its existence."
"You are a favorite of fate, and I dare not easily lay a hand on you, for the wrath of God is unpredictable."
"The word 'destiny' implies both fate and change. I have been following the development of your destiny until you were twelve years old, when the string of destiny began to vibrate."
Her tone was unhurried, even somewhat slow, but her words, which contained the secrets of destiny, firmly gripped everyone's heartstrings.
"You Chinese call twelve years a 'xun' (旬), and every twelve years represents a cycle of life and a turn of fortune."
"When you were twelve years old, during the cycle of life and fortune, your strong destiny experienced a brief period of weakness."
"I understand that will be the perfect opportunity to strike you, and if I miss it, there won't be another chance."
She looked at Chu Liyue, a few crow's feet appearing at the corners of her eyes, and a subtle self-mockery surfaced in her gaze:
"But out of humanitarian concern and fear of fate, I will try to approach you in a more friendly way."
“You have demonstrated exceptional talent in those technological fields, so I, as Chairman of God, extend this invitation to you.”
"But the moment I saw you, I knew my plans were doomed to fail. The sense of threat you posed made me realize that getting rid of you was the best option."
She spoke a little faster and colder: "I didn't want to get involved in the karma of killing you, so I changed my approach."
“I happen to have the No. 1 reagent, which is known for its ability to torture and destroy life. I used illusion magic to control your opponent in Ice City and threw the No. 1 reagent when you had no chance to dodge.”
“In this way, you will not die directly at my hands, and your life will not be lost in an instant. The consequences I will bear will be mitigated.”
As her emotions fluctuated, the purple aura surrounding her became even more eerie and fluid.
Her tone became heavy: "But I underestimated the protection fate had for you. Even under those circumstances, the No. 1 reagent still failed to be injected into your body."
“Fate only gave me one chance, but I didn’t seize it. I dare not bear the consequences of killing you, and I can’t find any other opportunity. I can only erase everything and choose to retreat.”
This hiding lasted for more than ten years.
She paused for a moment, then gave a soft, sinister smile, a smile that betrayed her helplessness and self-mockery.
"Heaven gave me a vague sense of crisis, tempting me to take action against you, and the thread of fate was thus intertwined."
"I hid for ten years, and when Vito Russell appeared before me, your pursuit was within my grasp, which made me realize that there was no escaping it."
Suddenly, her smile was tinged with that eerie, sinister quality once again:
“Miss Chu, I dare not bear the consequences of killing you, but just as easily, you would also find it difficult to kill me.”
"The seeds of cause and effect have already been sown. There is no use in escaping it. I cannot overcome fate. I can only try to survive in the cracks."
"I can't touch you, but I can eliminate anyone else who poses a threat to me. That's all."
