I Can Infinitely Synthesize Transcendent Genes

Chapter 132: 122 Evolve! The Truth! Admitting Wrong (Seeking monthly tickets, recommendations, and subscriptions)_1

“Wu Feng, Vitality Value 0.5, ranked last in the entire class…”

As the teacher spoke from the podium, fifty-two pairs of eyes in the class of fifty-three instantly focused on the frail figure in the corner.

Xiao Wu Feng’s self-esteem was trampled, and he looked resentfully at the bald middle-aged teacher on the podium.

Unfortunately, the novelistic twist of fortune that turns the underdog’s life around in thirty years didn’t happen to him, nor did he receive any secret guidance from the Golden Finger Old Man.

In self-abandonment, he began to drift through the streets outside the school, living the life of a delinquent.

His petty thefts had led to multiple arrests by the Night Patrol Department.

His father, who had looked after him for many years, eventually collapsed from overwork and exhaustion. They were so poor that they couldn’t afford medical bills, and his father ended up constantly calling Wu Feng from the riverside while sitting down.

However, Wu Feng, indulged in a frivolous life, didn’t answer his father’s calls. After a total of 12 missed calls, he never heard from his father again. All he received was a notice to claim the body.

The night his father died, Wu Feng thought about a lot, for a long time.

After that, he became a changed person.

On the day of his father’s cremation, he took his father’s ashes, obsessively believing that all this was ruined by that bald middle-aged teacher back then.

This was the first time his hands were stained with fresh blood.

Before leaving, he placed a ruler on the corpse.

Afterward, with the influence from years in the gang, he used the black market connections to escape his hometown, barely surviving on the rewards for tasks given by the black market.

During one peculiar job, he was cursed and chosen as a sacrifice by a group of mysterious people. Instead of dying, he accidentally awakened to Transcendence.

Since then, he discovered he could be reborn.

What he hadn’t expected was that before he could achieve anything with this unique Extraordinary Ability, he encountered a ruthless Demon head.

He hated so much…

Hated his own weakness…

Hated that the world always seemed to trouble him…

He swore that after this rebirth, he would immediately kill this Demon head!

“Too bad, you won’t get the chance.”

Pei Jinye slowly opened his eyes, Wu Feng’s last remnants of resentment and hope completely vanished in his Devouring.

The first two times he had killed him, he hadn’t Devoured by chance.

But this time…

Wu Feng miscalculated and was completely out of play.

Pei Jinye flicked out the attribute panel.

[New Extraordinary Genes]: Time-Space Reset;

[New Extraordinary Abilities]: Death Replay;

[Vitality Value]: 14-16.5;

[Stamina]: 13.6-16.1 (average value for normal people 1);

[Psychic Power]: 9.2-17.1;

[New Skill]: Boxing (Beginner 30%);

Pei Jinye frowned slightly.

His Vitality Value and Physical strength had actually dropped by two points each.

“Could it be that this Extraordinary Ability is too powerful? So the consumption has increased?”

“However, this guy only had one skill, he was really weak…”

Among all the people Pei Jinye had Devoured, probably only Wu Feng was this weak. Fortunately, the Transcendent Ability was quite special, giving him a lifesaving trump card.

With a flick of his finger.

Flames consumed Wu Feng’s body, leaving nothing but ashes.

He casually took out a wrapped Blood Spirit Fruit from his pocket.

Tearing off the wrapping, he swallowed it whole and began to chew.

Bright red juice, like blood, spilled from the corner of his mouth; in the dim and abandoned factory, Pei Jinye looked like a demon that had walked right out of Hell.

Vitality began to replenish in large amounts.

He picked up Wu Feng’s shoulder bag that had been left behind.

Pei Jinye turned around, becoming a Shadow once more.

He had originally left home to deal with something related to Cai Weiqian, but Wu Feng ended up being a delightful surprise after the meal.

In excellent spirits, Pei Jinye headed straight for Tongguan Road.

The heavy rain poured down like ink.

The sky above Da Peng City seemed like a colossal bowl had been inverted over it.

In a blind spot for surveillance.

Pei Jinye stood under the night, holding an umbrella, looking around to confirm his bearings before his mind shifted.

The rain that had been falling on him suddenly hung suspended in mid-air, rising and reversing.

The night space began to warp.

The scene in this area started rapidly reversing, as if being rewound.

Ten minutes later.

Pei Jinye finally saw what he wanted to see.

The red-fronted truck that Cai Weiqian had mentioned was forced to stop here…

“So it was a Transcendent after all.”

Pei Jinye’s eyes narrowed.

“Were you looking for me?” A voice suddenly echoed in the darkness.

The next second.

The raindrops suspended in mid-air were cleaved in two by a brilliant white slash of a sword.

At the same time, so was Pei Jinye.

But!

It was merely an afterimage of Pei Jinye.

The newcomer paused, seemingly not expecting that what they struck wasn’t a person.

“Crap!”

Realizing they might have kicked an iron plate, the person turned to flee.

However

Suddenly, Pei Jinye, holding an umbrella, appeared before them, his hand clenched into a fist and falling fiercely.

Boom!

A thunderous roar like a surprise thunderclap shook the air, and furious winds blazed!

The newcomer was also quick to react.

Raising a hand.

The blade of light slashed down.

The air, suppressed by terror, parted like ripples on water, attempting to deflect Pei Jinye’s punch.

Unfortunately, he had underestimated Pei Jinye’s strength.

The moment the blade made contact with Pei Jinye’s iron fist, a ferocious burst of energy exploded like a heavy hammer, instantly shattering the blade and then the punch, unstoppable as crashing bamboo, landed on the Swordsman’s chest.

“Bang!”

The young Swordsman was immediately blasted away, flying back and crashing to the ground, rolling twice before coming to a shaky halt.

“Who… who are you?” The young Swordsman’s mouth was spitting blood as he looked in terror at the silhouette approaching under an umbrella.

“The goods from last night, they were taken by you, right?” Pei Jinye’s expression was blank. “If you want to live, hand them over.”

The complexion of the young Swordsman changed slightly. “You’re one of Cai Weiqian’s men.”

Pei Jinye, holding the umbrella, stood in front of the young Swordsman, looking down from his vantage point.

This young Swordsman was even younger than he had imagined.

Probably just over twenty.

Thick eyebrows, large eyes, and a buzz cut… he didn’t look like a bad-hearted person.

It’s just a pity he stole the wrong goods.

“Hand over the goods,” Pei Jinye said, his gaze steady.

Under that calm scrutiny, the young Swordsman’s heart trembled, and his forehead began to sweat profusely… This was probably the first time he had faced such a life-and-death moment.

In the past, he also “picked his battles,” well-known Transcendents he dared not provoke, and those without fame, even if he couldn’t beat them, he could quickly escape.

But the man he encountered today…

He could not fathom him at all.

Clenching his lower lip, he said, “I’m sorry, I really need those goods, even if you kill me, I can’t give them back to you…”

Pei Jinye’s gaze turned cold.

He found asking questions tiresome.

He simply reached out his hand.

Just as he was about to hypnotize.

Suddenly, a stir came from the side.

A sharp arrow shot through the air from a distance, aiming not for Pei Jinye’s vitals but seemingly just to drive him back.

But it never even got close to Pei Jinye.

Behind his umbrella-holding figure, in the rain, a massive Shadow Avatar emerged from the ground and caught the arrow.

The atmosphere tensed.

It seemed that no one had expected the situation to turn out this way.

“Shooting arrows in secret, isn’t that a bit impolite?” Pei Jinye didn’t look back, but the huge shadow behind him violently threw the arrow back.

A muffled groan from a girl was heard instantly.

“Xiao Li!” The young Swordsman’s expression changed, and he tried to get up.

Pei Jinye, expressionless, kicked him back down.

He turned his head to look.

In a corner ten meters away, a young girl in a blue raincoat, clutching an arrow-wounded arm, looked over in panic.

Behind her was a young man about 25 or 26 years old, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, squinting as he looked over and then stood in front of the girl.

“Sir, we mean no harm, please let my brother go. If there’s been any misunderstanding, just tell us,” he said.

“I really don’t want to say the same thing twice,” Pei Jinye said, kicking the young Swordsman who was feigning death on the ground. “You tell me.”

“Brother, he’s here for the medicine that Cai Weiqian lost last night.”

The man with glasses narrowed his gaze upon hearing this, “Sorry, sir, that batch of goods—”

He had barely finished speaking.

When a huge fist had already come thundering towards him.

The man with glasses raised his arms, a faint coppery-golden color spreading over them.

With a “thump.”

He blocked the punch, yet he couldn’t help but step back half a meter, the ground where he stood abruptly collapsing and quickly getting filled with rainwater.

“Senior, we only used that batch of medicine for the elderly and children in the slums; we didn’t sell it privately!”

The man with glasses felt the pain in his arms and already had a rough understanding of Pei Jinye’s strength.

More fatally

The one who had just made a move wasn’t Pei Jinye himself, but merely that huge shadow.

If it had been him in person…

The man with glasses didn’t dare to imagine; if that were the case, he feared his arm would already be completely useless!

Pei Jinye frowned.

The man with glasses sternly said, “In Da Peng City, there are many sick elderly and children in the slums who can’t afford medical care… We couldn’t stand by and watch, but we also didn’t have enough funds, so we had to take the risk and intercept the gangs’ goods…”

Pei Jinye felt the onslaught of justice and a moral high point confronting him.

The huge shadow beneath the curtain of rain slowly dissipated.

Naturally, he didn’t believe one-sided claims, but when he covertly used his Heavenly Calculation ability, he did discover related images.

So Cai Weiqian’s goods were probably not going to be recovered.

“That’s no excuse for you to intercept goods at will. The elderly and children in Da Peng City are the responsibility of the Federation Relief Office…” Pei Jinye’s hoarse voice began.

But the young swordsman sneered, “The Federation has millions in subsidies every year, but where is the money… If not in the pockets of those bastard corrupt officials.”

Pei Jinye looked down at him and said without emotion, “Then why don’t you rob those corrupt officials of their money?”

The young swordsman suddenly opened and closed his mouth but did not know how to retort.

Pei Jinye then articulated his inner hesitation, “So you fear the titles of those corrupt officials, but you show no restraint towards those on the streets without any background. Is your behavior truly just?”

“There’s not a single good one in the gangs,” the young girl across retorted through clenched teeth.

Pei Jinye silently looked over.

The man with glasses said gravely, “Senior!”

“With so many gangs, why choose Cai Weiqian specifically? Doesn’t the Ma Gang have more medicine? They even have their own shops?” Pei Jinye, expressionless, finished their sentence for them, “It’s because you’re as afraid of the gangs as you are of the corrupt officials. You talk big about hating injustice, but when it comes down to it, you bully the weak and fear the strong.”

The young swordsman’s head was already lowered, too ashamed to speak.

The young girl, somewhat upset, wanted to argue back, but the words she had ready to say could not come out because what Pei Jinye said was exactly their worry.

“I’m very sorry about last night’s medicine,” the man with glasses sighed, “If you can trust me, sir, I will return the goods as they were within three days.”

“Brother?!” The young swordsman was stunned.

All that medicine was worth millions, and a third of it had already been used. Where were they going to get the funds to replace it?

“Why should I believe you?” Pei Jinye said flatly.

At that moment, the young girl, including the man with glasses, all had their faces stiffen.

Could it really come down to fighting this man?

But… could they even win?

The brief exchange they had just now gave them a glimpse of their opponent’s might; if he truly wanted to kill the man with glasses, it would have been as simple as a single thought!

Such a terrifying opponent… he truly couldn’t muster any desire to resist.

The two people behind him had followed him through hardships, seeking to uphold justice. He had no reason to lead them to their death!
