Chapter 150: Chapter 150 I Want Her to Live
Ling Feng changed into a fresh set of clothes as soon as he got home, and indeed, he felt much more revitalized.
Ding-dong, the doorbell rang.
Ling Feng glanced at the time, then opened the door.
"Oh, big bro! Iāve missed you so much!" A tall, blonde Western youth stood outside the door, stretching out his arms to give Ling Feng a big hug as soon as he saw him!
Ling Feng swiftly dodged, then grabbed the collar of his shirt with his right hand and flung him into the room.
"Youāre quite fast, Aiven!" Ling Feng said with a faint smile, "I thought youād wait a few days before showing up!"
Aiven rolled on the floor, then looked around the room curiously, "Wow, big bro, so this is your home in Huaxia, itās truly filled with your presence. Little Aiven feels like living here!"
A black line crossed Ling Fengās forehead, "Aiven, itās about time you found yourself a girl, so you donāt end up gay, which would be unfortunate!"
Aiven stood up from the floor, laughing, "As long as big bro comes back with me, Iāll find a girl and get married right away, how about that?"
Ling Feng looked at Aivenās hopeful eyes and sighed, "Aiven, you should know that Iāve made up my mind to leave Divine Gate, I donāt want to live that past life anymore! I hope I can lead the life of a normal person!"
Aiven fell silent, his gaze on the big brother before him, filled with complex emotions for his idol and War God!
Without Ling Feng, Aiven would have been buried in the dust by now!
"Big bro!" Aivenās face changed, and he bit his lip, "Is it because you only have less than five years left, so thatās why..."
Ling Fengās expression changed, and he asked in a deep voice, "How did you find out about that?"
Although Aiven was now a powerful warrior within Divine Gate, beneath Ling Fengās imposing aura he felt like a small boat in a storm, at risk of destruction at any moment!
Swallowing hard, Aiven said, "When you went to kill the Mad Doctor, I was worried you might run into trouble, so I followed behind. I didnāt expect to overhear the Mad Doctor telling you those things, so..."
Ling Feng loosened his aura and said indifferently, "Since you heard it already, thereās no point in hiding it. Thatās right, my body has been overtaxed by those experiments, and what the Mad Doctor said is true, I have less than five years to live!"
Although Aiven had overheard previously, there was a glimmer of hope in his heart, hoping that the Mad Doctorās words were false. But now with Ling Fengās admission, it shattered the last sliver of fantasy in Aivenās heart!
"Why, why!" Aiven roared in anguish.
Ling Feng waved his hand and said, "Actually, Iāve known about this for a long time! When I learned about it, I realized that I didnāt have much time left! According to my plans, it would take at least another three years to destroy Divine Gate and kill the Mad Doctor. But Iām out of time, which is why I suddenly led you guys in an assault, putting all our eggs in one basket. Fortunately, we won!"
"This is so unfair!" Aiven roared, "Big brother, if it wasnāt for you, all of our brothers would have become the Mad Doctorās test subjects. Now everyone is free, but why do you have to..."
A smile appeared on the corner of Ling Fengās mouth, "Fair? Aiven, you must remember, this world does not possess fairness! And I donāt regret it. At least I have fought for five years for myself. These five years are mine, not controlled by someone else!"
"Right!" Ling Feng suddenly asked seriously, "Apart from you, does anyone else know about this? Like... Catherine?"
Aivenās heart skipped a beat, but he said calmly, "No one, because this matter is just too unbelievable. I havenāt told anyone else. Otherwise, they would have come to Huaxia a long time ago!"
Ling Feng breathed a sigh of relief; as long as no one else knew about this.

"Aiven, although I have now left Divine Gate, as your older brother, I still have a few words to entrust to you!" Ling Feng said thoughtfully, "Generals may fall on the battlefield, and even a mighty instructor like the War God, I was the one who killed him! I see it very clearly. As long as we are in the Underworld, weāll inevitably meet a bad end one day! You all are my dear brothers, and I do not wish to hear any bad news about you in the future!"
"If possible, learn from me. Live the life of an ordinary person with hidden identities," Ling Feng sighed and said, "After so many years of bloodshed, Iāve seen through it all. This is also why I chose to retire!"
Aiven nodded, "Brother, I will convey your words to everyone!"
After a moment of silence, Ling Feng said, "Take care of Catherine for me. In this life, I have wronged her the most! Initially, I took her by force, and later, I killed her father. She is the one person I owe the most in this lifetime!"
Aivenās expression turned odd, "Brother, since you owe her, why donāt you make it up to her? I think even if you retired, Catherine would be very willing to stay with you!"
"Itās impossible!" Ling Feng sighed and said, "After all, I killed her father with my own hands, I..."
"But at that time, we had no choice!" Aiven became anxious, "Catherine is well aware that the instructor was pursuing the ultimate in human martial power. To fight to the death with you was his choice and long-cherished wish. There was no personal enmity between you, it was just a clash of beliefs!"
Ling Feng looked out the window and said flatly, "Itās different. Even if Catherine can get over that psychological hurdle, I canāt face her. Aiven, you donāt understand, you canāt comprehend the heartache, the helplessness, and the resentment of seeing a loved one die before your eyes! Killing the instructor, facing Catherine, thereās a knot in my heart."
Aiven didnāt understand. Abandoned by his parents at a young age due to a rare congenital disease, it was the Mad Doctor who picked him up and conducted various Gene Experiments on him. Before he met Ling Feng, he was merely a Little White Mouse, completely obedient to the Mad Doctor!
It was Ling Feng who unlocked his mind, allowing him to think for himself and have desires and dreams like any human being!
"Enough, letās not talk about these unhappy things!" Ling Feng said, "I secretly asked you to come here because there is something I need your help with!"
As he spoke, Ling Feng took out a sealed transparent plastic bag from the drawer. Inside was a long strand of hair.
"The owner of this hair has a hereditary family disease. All the women cannot live past thirty years of age!" Ling Feng spoke gravely, "I suspect itās related to the genetic code! Though I hate to admit it, the Mad Doctorās research in genetics is unparalleled in the world! Although the Mad Doctor is dead, his research resides within the Divine Gate organization. I want you to analyze the genetic defects of the owner of this strand of hair!"
"I want her to live, not just to surpass thirty but to reach forty, fifty, sixty... even a hundred years old!" Ling Feng said earnestly, "Aiven, this is not an order, this is me asking you! Please help me with this!"
