“Ping’an, stop pretending. I know everything.”

Looking at Feng Qi’s cold expression, a bitter expression appeared on Le Ping’an’s face.

“Can you tell me how you found out?”

“Tell me first why you chose to betray humanity.”

Le Pinga’n’s body trembled slightly, as if he had already realized what he was about to face. The shy smile on his face turned into a hysterical ferocity in the blink of an eye.

“Why? There’s no reason. Is it wrong for me to live for myself?”

“This is not a reason for you to betray humanity,” Feng Qi said coldly.

“Don’t pretend to be so noble. Don’t judge me on the moral high ground if you haven’t experienced what I’ve experienced. You’re not worthy!”

At this moment, Le Ping’an had completely changed. He no longer had the humility he once had.

Looking at Feng Qi’s cold expression, Le Pingan’s body trembled as he continued,

“I didn’t want to, but I didn’t have a choice. I really didn’t.”

As he spoke, before Feng Qi could make a move, he suddenly opened his mouth and coughed up a pool of blood.

“Hehe, Brother Qi, don’t even think about getting any information from me. Since I’ve been exposed, 1 have no intention of living.”

Seeing Le Ping’an vomit blood, Feng Qi suddenly thought of the information his future self had left behind.

All captured members of the dark forces would use a mysterious method of suicide to quickly die. Moreover, their corpses would gradually disintegrate and dissipate.

Realizing that Le Ping’an was committing suicide in that way, he immediately took a step forward and reached out to grab him.

When his fingers touched him, who was already in a daze, his Nightmare ability was suddenly activated.

Information from countless memory fragments surged into his mind.

“Ping’an, you must become a useful person to society in the future.”

“Ping’an, what’s your dream?”

“The Science and Technology Research Institute? As expected of my good son. Your hobbies are the same as mine. Technology is the future.”

“Son, if I can’t complete this research, you must complete it for me when you grow up. This technology might be able to change the future of humanity.”

Countless memories and information intertwined in Feng Qi’s mind.

He saw many memories of Le Ping’an growing up.

When he was young, Le Ping’an grew up with his parents and lived a blissful life. His parents were upper echelons of the Science and Technology Research Institute. They did not lack material things.

Therefore, Le Ping’an always had a smile on his face when he was young. He especially liked to wheedle with his parents and lie in their arms to listen to their stories.

After skimming through most of the information about Le Ping’an’s childhood, one of the images caught Feng Qi’s attention.

In this memory, he was lying on the bed as if he was sick. He was even wearing an oxygen respirator on his face.

From Le Ping’an’s perspective, he could see his parents lying at the head of the bed, looking at him sadly.

During this period, his father would slap himself from time to time and say self-reproachful words.

Lying on the bed, Le Ping’an’s body became weaker and weaker. The vitality in his body quietly drained away with every breath.

At this moment, a black shadow appeared in front of the bed.

Feng Qi could not hear what the black shadow in the image was saying. The couple looked conflicted as they listened to it.

In the end, Le Pinga’n’s father took out a spiritual energy gun from his waist and aimed it at the black shadow. However, it was obvious that his hand that was holding the gun was trembling.

At this moment, Le Ping’an’s mother pressed down the trigger and nodded with a pained expression.

At this moment, Le Ping’an’s father seemed to have been drained of all his strength. He sat paralyzed on the ground, tears rolling down his eyes.

At this moment, the black shadow placed its hand on Le Ping’an’s forehead. As it gently caressed him, a ball of black energy seeped into his body. A trace of red appeared on his originally pale face.

His intermittent breathing began to calm down.

Seeing this memory, Feng Qi suddenly realized why Le Ping’an’s parents had betrayed humanity.

For the sake of his life, they chose to let Le Ping’an live after a struggle in their minds.

This was undoubtedly a deal with the demons.

In the future, as expected, Le Ping’an began to work for the domain transcendent creatures that had infiltrated the Science and Technology Research Institute.

This was his parents’ choice, so he had no choice.

After his parents completed the deal with the domain creature, he could no longer choose light. He only had one way.

However, the domain creatures that infiltrated the Science and Technology Research Institute were very mysterious.

Even in front of Le Ping’an, it had never revealed its appearance.

“Cough, cough!” At this moment, Le Ping’an coughed up blood again and interrupted Feng Qi’s memory reading.

“Brother Qi, actually, my dream when I was young was to fight for the rise of mankind for the rest of my life.”

On the verge of death, Le Ping’an regained his consciousness as if this was his final spurt before death. Then, he looked at Feng Qi and continued,

“Brother Qi, let me ask you a question.. If your child is terminally ill, lying on a hospital bed, unable to be cured and a demon comes to you.

“He says that not only can he cure your child, but he can also give you an almost eternal lifespan and fulfill any material demands but the price is that a group of people who have nothing to do with you will die, and no one will know what you did.. What will you choose?”

Faced with the question, Feng Qi already understood what Le Ping’an was thinking.

As if muttering to himself, Le Pingan continued,

“You don’t have to answer me. Remember what you’re thinking. Perhaps you’ll face such a choice one day. They did not do wrong.”

Looking at Le Ping’an, who was gradually becoming dispirited, Feng Qi could not help but sigh..
