Free Web NovelChapter 822: Chapter 657: The Truth Behind the Father and Son’s Falling-Out (2)
Seeing the shock and even fear on the female’s face, a trace of satisfaction flashed in his eyes.
He put his mask back on, his tone heavy, "You may not know, that child has an extremely strong talent, born as the strongest Beastman in our clan’s history. Unfortunately, his power is so difficult to control that once it gets out of hand, he becomes an insane devil." freewёbnoνel.com
"I almost lost my life back then, let alone you, a fragile female? Leaving him now is the most sensible decision."
"Because of this, the family had to abandon him back then. Many suggested killing him, but I was truly fond of this son, so I chose to seal him in the Death Abyss."
"I was doing it for his own good... but unfortunately, he didn’t understand my painstaking efforts."
Shou He sighed deeply, his expression sad and regretful, as if he was truly a loving father betrayed. Anyone who saw him would probably think he was the victim.
Listening to this flawless speech, Shen Tang almost fell for it too, but she knew very well how hypocritical the man in front of her was.
On the surface, she still portrayed a shocked and then enlightened expression, "So that’s the truth..." She lightly patted her chest, still fearful and said, "Jin is indeed too dangerous, I can’t stay by his side, otherwise I might not survive one day... I will definitely help the Family Head catch him and seal him up again."
Shou He nodded in satisfaction, "You are a sensible child. Rest assured, as long as you help me catch him, I won’t treat you unfairly."
Shen Tang shyly pursed her lips but seemed to recall something, still somewhat puzzled, "But, the laboratory and replication... what’s the story there?"
Shou He knew what she truly wanted to ask was about her Beast Husband, so he didn’t hide anymore, "This is a long story. Back then, in order to save Jin, I searched everywhere for solutions. Later, people from the ’Hand of Creation’ found me, saying his madness was due to his Innate Crystal Core being incomplete, unable to withstand the energy in his body."
"The only way to save him was to find a Homogeneous Crystal Core to fuse with him, stabilizing his power and returning him to normal."
"But where in this world could one find a Homogeneous Crystal Core? The laboratory gave me a plan, to use his genes to cultivate a replica. As long as the replica can successfully survive and condense a matching High-level Crystal Core, the core can be taken out and fused with Jin."
Listening, Shen Tang’s heart raced, isn’t this just the routine of organ transplantation? Specifically cultivating replicas as organ donors, ready to extract when the original body needs it.
The Hand of Creation Laboratory was actually conducting such unethical experiments!
But she didn’t show a single flaw on her face, only made a shocked expression. Then she heard Shou He continue slowly, "I wanted to save my son, so I agreed to cooperate with them. But, though it sounds simple, cultivating a perfect replica is extremely difficult." freēwebnovel.com
"The laboratory had successful cases before, but the majority of those replicated were weak Beast Clan members. The weaker and lower level the Beast Clan, the easier it is to cultivate replicas."
"The stronger the talent of the Beastman, the lower the success rate of replication. There is no successful precedent above S-level talent."
"Most embryos simply cannot take shape. Even if one out of a hundred forms, it often doesn’t survive past three years, dying prematurely."
"Later, the laboratory found a perfect catalyst, improving the survival rate of replicated infants. Sadly, although they were able to create living beings, those replicas didn’t have the strong Talent Ability of the original, nor could they condense matching Crystal Cores... They are all useless failures! Trash!"
Listening, Shen Tang’s gaze grew colder, her hand at her side secretly clenched.
So that was it. The "perfect catalyst" Shou He mentioned was probably Blood Clan blood, especially pure Blood Clan blood!
There is always a price to pay in this world. To create each replica, countless Blood Clan lives were probably sacrificed.
They created so many "Deputies," who knows how many Blood Clan members were killed... truly cruel to the extreme!
In Shou He’s narrative, over these years, the laboratory had released large numbers of replicas on different planets, expending countless resources, all to develop a perfect substitution for Shou Jin, yet they all failed.
Only one miracle, Xiao Jin.
Not only did he survive successfully, but he also condensed a Crystal Core, even awakened the Talent Ability of the original body, breaking through to the Primordial Beast Tier, his strength and talent comparable to the original!
This truly was a miracle of great proportions.
A perfect experiment product.
Shou He even assured Shen Tang that as long as Jin was found, her Beast Husband might be revived.
Although Shen Tang missed Xiao Jin and hoped he would return, she definitely didn’t want to use such a life-for-life method. But she still played an excited appearance and went with them to find Jin.
