Everyone believes that if life could be lived again, they could achieve a perfect life.
When Ren Zhong first discovered he had the Resurrection Ability, he naively thought so too.
Later, he understood there is no perfection in the world.
The pursuit of perfection itself is a complete and utter mistake.
One can only seek but never attain.
The futile pursuit of perfection is destined to be filled with imnse regrets.
If one insists on demanding perfection in an imperfect world, the final outco often completely deviates from the original intention.
One can only end up empty-handed, gaining nothing.
...
Brother Sun fell.
His body was unscathed, but his soul was riddled with holes.
What defeated him was the deep-seated fear of the "Divine Barrier" that was never gone, just slightly concealed by Ren Zhong.
In a previous tiline, this fear led him to a dead end.
After Ren Zhong revealed the secret of the regular dodecahedron, he persisted again.
Ren Zhong proposed the plan of the Devil Baby Soul and provided the Molecular Regeneration Device for him, continuously creating hope for him, making him persist until now step by step.
But now, with the death of the infant, Sun Miao's dream shattered once again.
In fact, Sun Miao knew that cancer cells could be found again.
The cancer embryo could be remade with the Molecular Regeneration Device in hand.
However, if the thod to break the Divine Barrier could not be found, no matter how many attempts, the outco would remain the sa.
Yet this barrier in Sun Miao's heart had already been "deified".
His subconscious was saying, "Since it's the power of God, how could it possibly be broken?"
He had no hope left in his heart, only utter despair.
Crying and crying, Sun Miao fell limply to the ground, crawling little by little towards Ying and the dead infant.
His finger joints turned pale from using too much force.
Even if it was rely a few ters, he seed to be using all his strength.
Sun Miao moved in front of the infant, opened his eyes wide, then began to hysterically pound his chest.
Ren Zhong watched the usually foul-mouthed and surprisingly tough Sun Miao act so crazily, yet recalled the Great Migration event.
Sun Miao's Citizen Level undoubtedly exceeded the Fifth Level.
Thus, he could have ignored everything and calmly gone into cryogenic sleep in advance.
When he woke up, he would already be within the territory of the Empire alongside the ngdu Group.
He would still be the chief researcher of the ngdu Group, destined to have a new life.
But Sun Miao never thought of this at all, he wholeheartedly threw himself onto this path of no return, pursuing the answer in his heart.
Ren Zhong asked himself again.
He felt he wasn't as good as Brother Sun, after all.
In many aspects, he was more selfish than Brother Sun.
Ti seed both slow and quick.
Half an hour later, Ying's wailing turned into occasional low sobbing, her shoulders slightly shaking.
Sun Miao no longer pounded his chest, only hugging his legs with both hands, leaning against the lower part of the life-support box, then burying his head into his knees, silent and motionless, as if trying to bury himself into the darkness.
Ren Zhong quickly walked forward and snatched the child from Ying's hands.
Ying Xu raised her hand, trying to grasp sothing. But Ren Zhong had already walked away briskly.
She barely stood up, the wound on her abdon not completely healed yet, was being pulled open, and blood seeped through the white, loose maternity dress.
She let out a low moan, supporting herself with the nearby lab bench.
Ren Zhong turned back, slowly saying, "She is already dead, we must destroy her. We can't let the Hunter sense there is a dead infant here."
Ying no longer moved, just looked at Ren Zhong pleadingly, "Let see her one more ti, will you? I beg you."
Ren Zhong handed Sun ng back into Ying's hands.
She held the infant with both hands, slowly bringing her face closer.
She pressed her face tightly against the gradually cold yet still smooth and delicate skin of the infant's face, as if trying to pass her body warmth to her.
Ren Zhong took a deep breath, looked up at the ceiling, "I'm sorry. I didn't expect it to turn out this way. Truly... sorry."
This was not Tang Shuying's issue.
It was he who made Tang Shuying experience once again the greatest pain in the human world.
Tang Shuying slowly lowered her hands, looking directly at Ren Zhong, she shook her head slightly, "Mr. Ren, I will not bla you. At least... at least she lived inside for two months. This is fate, I... indeed cannot fight fate. From the mont I was born into a family of the wild, it was destined that I must endure various hardships. I've gotten used to it."
