Chapter 54, He Dao This Person

"Don't even think about running!" Yun Xu's eyes were bloodshot as she fired a pursuit cannon directly at He Dao. As she had expected, the cannon fire was blocked by other modified humans. However, He Dao just hovered outside the combat circle and did not continue to leave.

What does he mean?

The faint light of the escape pod was like dim stardust. Yun Xu was stunned and had a vague feeling that something was wrong, but the situation at the moment did not allow her to hesitate.

Yun Xu felt a gust of wind behind her ear as Luo Yi once again stabbed at her with a dagger. The control lever was hit, and the warship tilted to one side! Yun Xu felt as if she was nailed to the spot and had to readjust the control lever.

It's nothing serious, just a dagger. Even if she was stabbed, it wouldn't kill her. Yun Xu was prepared to take the hit, but she heard a muffled groan from behind her. Blood dripped from the tip of the knife onto the ground, and Luo Yi had actually cut his own arm with the knife.

"Luo Yi!" Yun Xu felt as if her heart had been captured. She stared at his sleeve, which was quickly soaked with blood, and her mind went blank for a moment.

Luo Yi's unfocused eyes seemed to be awakened by the pain. His temples were soaked with cold sweat, and he saw Yun Xu's anxious face in his field of vision.

He couldn't...hurt her. His consciousness became fuzzy again, and Luo Yi felt like a puppet controlled by an indescribable feeling, like the tides responding to the gravity of a satellite...

"Uh..." Luo Yi furrowed his brow, gritted his teeth, and was about to stab himself again.

His wrist holding the knife was in excruciating pain. He was kicked, and a blur of light and shadow rushed towards him. The dagger flew out and landed on the ground, emitting a crisp vibration. He fell backwards due to inertia, but his head hit the soft palm of his hand.

A voice filled with anger and resentment came into his ears: "What do you want to do? Even if you were sober, don't even think about touching a single hair on me with that knife! I don't need you to protect me by hurting yourself!"

"I...I want to wake up." Luo Yi felt anxious deep down, but he couldn't speak. His body was still resisting Yun Xu's suppression, going against his will.

Outside the porthole, the modified humans had already gained the upper hand, causing chaos. Yun Li and Xiu Dun had finally abandoned their armor and fled in embarrassment, but Yun Xu had no time to pay attention to them.

Her entire gaze was fixed on Luo Yi. His military cap had already been knocked off in the struggle, his hair was disheveled, and sweat made his cheeks and neck shine. He bit his lower lip tightly, and the contours of his collarbone occasionally appeared due to the angle of his forceful resistance.

From his actions alone, it seemed as if he detested Yun Xu and wanted to get rid of her as soon as possible. However...

Yun Xu watched as his thin eye sockets gradually turned red. His unfocused gaze was slowly covered by a layer of water, gathering into a drop of water in the light and shadow of the gunfire outside the porthole, disappearing into his hair in the blink of an eye.

It was as if her heart had been squeezed. Yun Xu had never felt so heartbroken for anyone before.

"You won't be controlled," she whispered, not knowing if she was trying to comfort Luo Yi or herself.

Forehead against forehead, Yun Xu closed her eyes. She thought of He Dao's words and Luo Yi's miserable childhood. If...if his parents hadn't died, would he have had an ordinary and happy life? Like a normal family far away from politics, studying, working, and celebrating every holiday with his family.
