After Breaking the Persona, I Reach the Peak of My Life

Chapter 1310: Chapter 1306: Warmth

"Something on the body?" Xiao Wu looked at Wei Ming in confusion. "What is it? I haven’t noticed anything."

Wei Ming looked at Xiao Wu’s confused expression and couldn’t help but raise his hand to pat Xiao Wu’s small head, asking, "Do you have any memory of before?"

Xiao Wu blinked. How should he answer this now? He definitely remembers the past, happily together with his sister, but... regarding this body, Xiao Wu truly has no recollection.

Seeing Xiao Wu’s expression, Wei Ming knew the answer. He sighed lightly and took off Xiao Wu’s shirt, revealing a thin scar on his chest.

"Are you saying there’s something wrong with this scar?"

"There’s nothing wrong with the scar; the problem lies with the heart inside Xiao Wu’s body." Wei Ming spoke calmly, but it stirred a thunderous shock. "Our research indicates that Xiao Wu’s heart is specially cultivated by the S.P Organization. In other words, these hearts are taken out early, enhanced with spiritual power, and finally installed into the donor’s body. The heart is nurtured to be like a blank slate, reminiscent of the imprinting of young birds. The first person the donor sees upon waking becomes the one they are loyal to. Thus, they have a powerful force completely under their control, and most importantly, that can grow with them."

"So, the children you rescued are donors?" Chu Wu asked.

"No," Bi Xia replied slowly, his starry eyes calmly looking at Wei Ming. "Those children are true organ providers."

"They were likely abducted from a young age, and the S.P Organization selects suitable heart donors, leaving the rest behind."

"That’s right," Wei Ming nodded. "Among these children, Xiao Wu was chosen as a donor."

"But their experiment was unsuccessful. So before that, they devised a way to extract the heart’s spiritual power and make it into a reagent for direct injection into the human heart. This proved far more convenient and faster than their previous method of nurturing humans."

"However, as Little Nine mentioned earlier, the downside is that spiritual power is difficult to control. It’s likely they will continue researching to refine this process. We must stop them before they complete this reagent. The mastermind evidently wants to establish an empire of their own in this world."

Listening to Wei Ming, Bi Xia silently exchanged glances with Xiao Wu, and both saw the gravity in each other’s eyes. Bi Xia turned to Wei Ming again. "Can you find out the S.P Organization’s leader’s name?"

Wei Ming paused, "We can’t track him. He appears and disappears without a trace. Every time we learn about his whereabouts, he vanishes as if he never existed."

Suddenly, Chu Wu asked, "Little Eight, be honest with me, did Feng Zhihuai leave Beijing not because of the Feng Family as he claimed?"

"Huh?"

"I’ve thought about it. The Feng Family is currently under attack, yet Feng Zhihuai left Beijing. He told me the mastermind behind the Feng Family’s assault isn’t in Beijing, and he took his forces from the military district," Chu Wu’s peach blossom eyes were icy and accusative. "Does he think I’m dumb?! He’s gone to Country A just like Qin Zhan, hasn’t he!"

"We still can’t reach anyone now. He vanished without a trace after lying; your troops are frantically searching, thinking I’m unaware?"

"I just want one answer. Is he in Country A or not?"

Wei Ming opened his mouth, paused for a moment, then lowered his head and said softly, "Sorry, I want to answer you, but ever since Junmen disappeared, I’ve separated from the military. Now... I’m just Wei Ming of Beijing’s eight young masters."

Chu Wu remained silent, and Bi Xia looked at Chu Wu, clearly sensing the fluctuation in Chu Wu’s spiritual power. Suddenly, that spiritual power shifted; Chu Wu’s expression turned icy, his peach blossom eyes half-narrowed, with cold, eerie glints flickering within, and he slowly said, "It’s okay. Whether he’s there or not, it doesn’t matter."

"Little Nine," Chu Wu... no, it should be Wu, slowly turned his head to look at Bi Xia, "Wu will protect you all."

Deeply gazing at Wu, Bi Xia smiled softly, "I will also protect all of you."

Wu was momentarily stunned, moved her feet slightly, and after a while, took a deep breath, stepped forward to stand in front of Bi Xia, her peach blossom eyes looking at Bi Xia. "I’m sorry for not saying goodbye to you personally last time."

Bi Xia smiled, "It’s okay. Aren’t we meeting again now?"

Saying this, he reached out and pulled Wu into his arms, smiling, "You’ve lost weight."

Wu stiffly smiled, burying her small face against Bi Xia’s neck, her voice extremely soft, as if murmuring, but just enough for Bi Xia to hear clearly, "...warm."

For some reason, Bi Xia felt a bit uncomfortable.
