Chapter 23



“Currently, this country is still pretty tolerant toward Transcendents, unlike certain foreign countries who are less friendly toward us. The benefits of officially registering are far greater than the disadvantages. However, there’s one thing that you should take note of: if you are planning to do anything special, you should prepare an alternate identity in advance.”

Wang Lei winked at him and Li Rui immediately understood.

The existence of the Transcendents was between glory and darkness. It was inevitable for them to be involved with killings so they would need a different identity in order for them to be able to do such dirty work.

At least on the surface, their identities must be law-abiding citizens. As for the things they did in the dark, as long as they didn’t go too far, the country could turn a blind eye toward it.

After figuring this out, Li Rui’s mood became a little better.

“Okay, I’m leaving. You and Li Wei have a good rest.”

“Thank you, Brother Lei!”

“You’re most welcome!”

Wang Lei waved at Li Rui and walked out of the ward without turning back.

As he ate the apple that Brother Lei had cut for him, Li Rui was touched, and there was a warm feeling in his heart.

He could see there were some issues between Wang Lei and Chao Zhi. If it weren’t because of Wang Lei, this issue wouldn’t have been dealt with so easily.

That roar that he had let out would have caused damage that was absolutely at least a few million yuan.

Money wasn’t even the main problem; it was the influence that it had caused!

Shanghai was the gateway of heaven to the outside world, and the community that he was in was located in the center of the city. The people around the community had all been shocked by it. This must have been a huge issue on social media already by now.

But Chao Zhi hadn’t even mentioned a word about the compensations and had just briefly mentioned the incident!

If it wasn’t because of Brother Lei who had been putting in so much effort…

Li Rui pursed his lips and was determined to repay this kindness in the future whenever he had the chance.

Just as he had made up his mind, a soft and confused moan rang in his ears.

Li Rui was surprised and immediately headed toward the bed next to him. “Wei, are you awake? How are you feeling?”

“Huhu… brother… I’m hungry…”

The soft and cute coquettish sound immediately melted his heart and he happily kissed her face.

“Okay, I’ll bring you out for food as soon as we finish this drip! Oh right, don’t forget to finish this nutrient drink first!”

“Boooo…”

Although she showed a crying face, Li Wei still obediently drank it. The confusing memory from last night had made her a little more mature than before.

Li Rui took a look at Li Wei’s attribute bar, but even after such a long time, her HP was only at 5/7; it looks like the nutrition from the glucose was still too little!

After finishing the nutrient drink, Li Wei’s pale face finally turned a healthy pink color!

Because their systems were linked, Li Rui could directly sense that his sister’s vitality was recovering. It was just like a seed that had finally budded and was coming out of the ground.

“Brother, last night… was that a ghost?”

Although the sun was brightly shining outside, Li Wei couldn’t help but pull onto Li Rui’s sleeves out of fear.

The horrifying ghost figure she had seen on the verge of death had immediately shattered her fragile inner world and had almost become a phobia to her.

Li Rui hesitated for a moment. His eyes narrowed and he held onto Li Wei’s shoulders.

“You’re right. Last night, we did meet a ghost. It has been sucking onto your blood which is why you have been so weak all this time. I have already destroyed it, so you will never have to worry about getting sick again!”

Li Wei was stunned for a while and then the glow in her eyes slowly became brighter.

“Really? Wow! You’re the best!”

She pounced on Li Rui and kissed him all over his face.

“I told you that I would protect you!”

He gently stroked her sister’s hair and smiled from the bottom of his heart.

As Li Wei’s excitement died down, Li Rui pulled her apart and said in a serious tone, “Wei, do you want revenge?”

“Revenge?”

Li Wei was confused. The torture that she had gone through these few years had caused her to still have the mind of a ten-year-old.

In the past, her greatest wish was to stay alive for as long as possible just to accompany her brother. She hadn’t even thought that there would be a chance for her to recover!

Now, she had been told that she would never be sick again and was already filled with joy and excitement. She didn’t even feel the hatred that she was supposed to have toward the ghost who had caused her so much pain.

In fact, Li Wei was a kind-hearted girl and such negative emotions like hatred had hardly ever appeared in her life.

As Li Rui noticed the confused look on his sister’s face, he thought of something else.

“Wei, the world is so much more dangerous than we thought. If one day, I am killed by these ghosts…”

“No!”

Before he could even finish his sentence, Li Wei hugged and tightly clung onto him. “No, my brother will not die!”

Li Rui held his sister’s face and looked at her with eyes full of love.

“These ghosts are very powerful. If… I really die and can no longer protect you, you have to learn how to continue living without me.”

Li Wei’s little body trembled in fear as she couldn’t imagine a world without her brother.

But after a while, she suddenly raised her head and her eyes were filled with determination.

“Brother, if there are any monsters in the future, we’ll fight them together! I will protect you!”

These words were childish but they did contain Li Wei’s unwavering determination, and Li Rui couldn’t help but smile.

“Sure! Then, you are going to train with me from now on. We’ll become stronger together.”

“Mm!”

Li Wei nodded seriously and her face immediately turned red.

Grrrrr~

A thunderous cry came from her stomach and Li Rui laughed. He called for the nurse to help her remove the needle that was in her hand.

“Let’s go then. Let’s go eat!”

Over the next few days, the siblings remained at the hospital.

When there’s sufficient food, [Feast]is indeed a magical skill.

Initially, there had been a long list of debuffs behind his health points which had stated that he had been extremely injured, spiritually withered, over-exhausted, and had damages to both his blood and vitality.

With just one extreme injury, the recovery effect had been reduced by 80%, but Li Rui had still miraculously recovered in less than ten days!

He had even managed to digest some of the extra HP!

Such an amazing recovery speed even shocked all of the doctors at the hospital. At first, all of them had thought that he would have to be admitted for at least six months before fully recovering.

But Li Rui was already as strong as a bull in less than ten days!

Of course, this came with a price. Over these ten days, Li Rui’s daily food expenses had exceeded thousands of yuan!

He had to have at least five meals a day with snacks in between. Even Li Wei looked at him as if there was something wrong with him.

He had already eaten at all the restaurants around the hospital and could no longer stand being looked upon like a pig by the restaurant owners. Li Rui finished the discharge procedures and went home with his sister.
