Chapter 762 You Are My Eyes
Are you sure it's not for yourself? Not because of ambition and desire?

“No.” An Luan shook his head. “I need to expel all those ghostly things from my body. Before that, I didn’t even dare to go home, worried that they would come out and hurt my wife and daughter after I fell asleep.”

As soon as An Luan finished speaking, the eerie station announcement rang out without warning—Wansheng Station has arrived. Please open the left door and disembark from the left side.

Before the subway had even come to a complete stop, Ci Nian had already pushed a pastor to the doorway.

The train doors slowly opened, and the priest and the swaying figures got off. A bunch of strange things crowded onto the platform outside—people, animals, and all sorts of oddities that the high-ranking official couldn't recognize.

If we compare this subway train to a living person, then the passengers entering from the platform are like various "tonic" that it consumes.

An Luan, sitting in his seat, seemed oblivious to the strange passengers boarding the bus, lost in his memories.

“I am my master’s most outstanding disciple, the only one at the fourth level of martial arts. Wan Sheng also values ​​me highly and is willing to let me use my merits to exchange for the supplements I need in the black market vault.”

"To accelerate my cultivation, I became the sharpest blade in Wansheng, suppressing rebellions, seizing resources, and then exchanging a large amount of merit points for medicines to aid my cultivation."

"I have no interest in money, no interest in women, no extra desires. I just want to get back to normal. As I eat more and kill more and more thugs, the evil thoughts in my body begin to expand rapidly. Everything is out of control, but I am like a subway without brakes. I can only keep moving forward."

"Under the almost frantic feeding, I broke through to the fifth level of martial arts—the Fetal Heart Without Dust—through my profound accumulation. According to my master, I have broken through the mortal barrier, understood the secrets of the fetus, entered the innate realm, and transcended the mundane world."

"But from my perspective, all the monsters I imagined have materialized, condensing into beating hearts that are rooted in my limbs and bones. They not only dominate me mentally, but also control me physically."

Every time An Luan uttered a sentence, a similar change would occur in his body. Gao Ming heard different frequencies of heartbeats coming from An Luan's body, as if his body, hidden in the darkness, was gradually transforming.

"The evil thoughts expand endlessly. With every move I make, I can stir up the malice in people's hearts and the strange power in forbidden zones. My master said that this is called the harmony of heaven and earth. Once I enter the innate realm, I can use the power of heaven and earth for my own purposes. When I break through to the last realm, I will be able to eliminate internal troubles, achieve the fusion of spirit and body, and communicate with the gods. At that time, I will be a part of heaven and earth and will no longer be troubled by external disasters."

"In fact, after entering the fifth level, I could no longer stop. New hearts kept growing in my body, and they needed a lot of 'supplements' every day. Those hearts had their own thoughts, and an extreme malice forced me to continue cultivating until all the hearts merged into one whole."

"It was only at this point that I became certain that my master didn't actually understand martial arts at all, and I couldn't even be sure if he was a human being."

"The final level cannot be broken through by tonics and external forces alone. My master and the 'martial arts grandmaster' of Wansheng began to try all sorts of ways to help me break through the barrier. Food, medicine, forbidden items, my body was honed to the limit. Then came the stimulation of the mind and will. Excruciating pain, ecstasy, despair, pleasure, they took me into different forbidden zones and let me see all kinds of crazy things, but I just couldn't grasp that ray of inspiration."

“My mentor’s style of doing things started to become more and more aggressive. He knew that my heart was anchored by my wife and children, and he repeatedly showed malice towards them.”

"Wansheng was also secretly supporting my master. About a few weeks later, I received a reminder from a councilor in the municipal council hall. He said he had received intelligence that someone was going to harm my wife and daughter, and told me to go home as soon as possible."

"I was worried, so I went home despite everyone's attempts to stop me, and I happened to see my master and my wife talking about something."

"The room was clean and tidy, but the wife's face was streaked with tears." "I don't know what they talked about, but I could feel the wife's pain. The way she looked at me changed, as if she were looking at a wild beast that was devouring her husband."

"At that moment, I was very scared, but I didn't know what I was scared of."

"Later, I still couldn't break through. Exhausted both physically and mentally, I resigned from my position as the acting head of Wansheng Hall, and spent all my merits and wealth to hire several cleaners from a cleaning company. At the cost of permanent damage to myself, I temporarily sealed off all my power."

“I want to get away from my master and Wansheng, but they won’t let me go. The councilors in the municipal council have tried every means to pass me messages and have repeatedly tried to stop Wansheng’s plans, but I’m still very scared. Every time I go out, I worry about the safety of my family. I want to go home as soon as possible. I have to go home as soon as possible!”

An Luan's voice grew louder, and the subway seemed to accelerate according to his will. The passengers inside the car began to feel uncomfortable. Ci Nian held tightly to the pastor and Gao Ming's arms to prevent herself from flying out.

"Stop asking him. Once he really remembers everything, we'll be facing a terrible nightmare!" Ci Nian warned Gao Ming helplessly. He had said similar things too many times, but Gao Ming seemed to be risking his life just to watch the show.

The passengers on the subway swayed and staggered, their strange and unusual forms mixing together. After falling, they turned into a viscous liquid, which slowly seeped into An Luan's body like blood.

At this moment, An Luan's body swelled to several times its original size, his back was connected to the entire subway car, and the sound of his heart beating came from his acupoints, as if ghost infants were being conceived within him.

"Go home, I want to go home!"

Amid his shouts, the subway sped off like a madman, and half a minute later the station announcement came on—"City Council Hall Station has arrived. Open the left door. Passengers who wish to disembark, please exit from the left side."

The speeding subway finally began to slow down, and Gao Ming, holding Ci Nian with one hand, felt his heart finally settle back down.

"This stop is the Municipal Council Hall. It seems that for An Luan, the Municipal Council Hall is another turning point in his life."

Looking towards the platform, the dark platform was swept by the red light, and Gao Ming saw that there were only two passengers standing there.

A tall, thin, bony woman wearing white pants, and a little girl carrying an umbrella and a schoolbag.

"Get out of the car!" This time, Ci Nian didn't let the staff get out of the car. Instead, she grabbed one of the staff members' hands, preparing to leave with him. In Ci Nian's view, being with Gao Ming was too dangerous, and they had to stay away.

"Where are you going?" Gao Ming grabbed Ci Nian's collar. "You're my eyes and ears, how can you run around like this?"

"Let go! You bastard! Let go!"
