259: Wall of Sighs
“Jing’er, why is it you?”
Bai Li Xin stared, dumbfounded, at the figure at the laboratory door.
He had thought it was the invaders who had broken in, but he never expected it to be his own son, his biological son.
“What are you doing? Are you crazy?”
After a brief moment of shock, Bai Li Xin was immediately overcome by rage.
What had Bai Li Jing done?
He had killed his assistant and his experimental team.
How much effort had he put into assembling this Forbidden Territory research and development team?
But in just a few short minutes, all that effort had gone to waste.
And the culprit for this outcome was his own good son, Bai Li Jing.
“Father, don’t be anxious,” Bai Li Jing’s smile was twisted, giving one goosebumps.
“I’m very well, I’ve never been this good before.”
Bai Li Jing tossed Uncle Chen’s corpse aside, “Father, look, I now possess Forbidden Territories, and many of them.
I dare say there’s no such example in the entire Great Xia; your son isn’t inferior to those God’s Proxies.”
“You little rascal, who cares if you have Forbidden Territories? Do you know that decades of the Baili Family’s research achievements have all been destroyed by you, all destroyed by you?”
Bai Li Xin’s right hand, gripping his cane, creaked, and he wished he could tear Bai Li Jing limb from limb right now.
“Forbidden Territory research achievements? Hahahaha…” Bai Li Jing burst into loud laughter, “Even now, you’re still unwilling to tell me the truth?”
Bai Li Jing stepped over the pus and blood on the ground, walking closer step by step.
“Haven’t you always been researching immortality? And your body, it’s almost entirely replaced by Forbidden Territories, isn’t it?”
Thump!
Bai Li Xin’s cane dropped to the ground, and he looked at Bai Li Jing in astonishment, demanding, “How do you know these things?”
“Hehe, if you don’t want people to know, don’t do it. Father, in this world, there’s no wall that’s completely airtight. I know all about your secret cooperation with the Ancient God Church.”
Bai Li Xin’s gaze turned cold, “Yue Huai is already dead. You couldn’t possibly know these things through the Ancient God Church.”
“You don’t think that only Yue Huai knew about this in the Ancient God Church, do you?”
Bai Li Jing looked at Bai Li Xin, his eyes filled with pity.
“You can cooperate with the Ancient God Church, so why can’t I?”
Bai Li Xin looked at his son; at this moment, Bai Li Jing felt so unfamiliar to him.
“You’re truly insane. I understand Yue Huai’s character; he would never tell anyone. You’ve been deceived, child.”
“Deceived? Father, I don’t know where your confidence comes from, but in this world, is it true that everyone else is wrong except for you?” Bai Li Jing suddenly roared.
“I handed the Baili Group over to you to manage before you were even twenty. Aren’t you satisfied yet?” Bai Li Xin angrily retorted.
“The Baili Group? Hahahaha, that’s just a Puppet. Do you think I don’t know that the true foundation of the Baili Family is its Forbidden Territory research and development technology?
But you never let me get close to these things?
At first, I thought you were testing me, and that when I replaced that dead Pang Pang, I would get what I wanted.
But, you actually set your sights on immortality.
Immortality!
If you truly achieve immortality, then what use would I be?”
Bai Li Jing’s eyes were filled with greed and madness, “Father, you’re already half-buried in the grave. Why don’t you hand over Forbidden Territory research and immortality to me?
Believe me, I will definitely carry them forward, making the Baili Family stand at the pinnacle of Great Xia, and even at the pinnacle of this world.”
“Bai Li Jing, how dare you be so rebellious!”
Bai Li Xin’s rage was completely ignited by Bai Li Jing’s words, “Don’t think that just because you have Forbidden Territories, you can do whatever you want.
In Guangzhou-Shenzhen, in the Baili Family, some things are yours only if I give them to you.
If I don’t give them to you, don’t even think about it.”
“Heh heh,” Bai Li Jing sneered, “Are you not even going to pretend anymore? Sure enough, I am your son, so of course, I know what kind of person you are.
Everything the Baili Family has was seized with their own hands.
Today, I too will use my own hands to take everything that belongs to me.”
After Bai Li Jing finished speaking, he clenched his fingers into a fist and lunged forward, delivering a punch to Bai Li Xin’s chest.
Bai Li Xin sighed, and suddenly a dark light blocked Bai Li Jing’s path.
Boom!
Bai Li Jing’s punch slammed into the dark light, and the immense force made the entire laboratory shake.
The lights on the ceiling flickered continuously, and sparks flew wildly in the corners.
Bai Li Jing was thrown back several steps by the immense rebound force, almost falling to the ground.
He stared at Bai Li Xin with a sinister gaze, slowly saying, “Is this the Wall of Sighs?”
Bai Li Xin sneered, “Do you really think I have no means of self-defense?
This Wall of Sighs is a Forbidden Territory of ultra-high-risk sequence. Not to mention you, even a master from the Klein Realm would not find it easy to break through this wall.”
Bai Li Jing looked at Bai Li Xin, his eyes flickering.
Then, his left hand began to deform, as if molten iron had been poured into a mold.
Within a few breaths, his left hand had transformed into a sharp blade.
Bai Li Jing stepped forward again, using all his strength to thrust the blade towards the Wall of Sighs.
With a crisp snap, Bai Li Jing’s left hand was crushed into a bloody mess.
Bai Li Jing grimaced, clearly having suffered a considerable injury from that blow.
But even with such a full-force strike, he still couldn’t Breakthrough the obstruction of the Wall of Sighs.
Bai Li Jing shook his hand, and the mass of flesh reformed into his arm.
Among the Forbidden Territories he had consumed, some possessed healing abilities, so he wasn’t worried about his arm being crippled.
Bai Li Xin looked at him and said coldly, “I’ve already told you, you simply cannot Breakthrough the Wall of Sighs’ defense.
Give up on that idea. However, what you just said reminded me.
After achieving immortality, a rebellious son like you really is useless.
You just stand there and watch in despair as I gradually achieve immortality.
Hahahahaha…
How could my plan, meticulously crafted for over a decade, be so easily disrupted by you?”
With that, Bai Li Xin intended to walk to the laboratory where Bai Li Pang Pang was, as he was truly running out of time.
Just as he turned around, he suddenly heard a “clink.”
It sounded like tempered glass shattering.
He looked back in confusion, and a drop of water, appearing from nowhere, directly struck the Wall of Sighs.
Cracks spread across the wall like a spiderweb, and with a loud crack, this Forbidden Territory, renowned for its defense, shattered with a crash.
A chilling voice came from somewhere, “A magnificent drama should not be obscured by a broken wall.”
