Chapter 270: Chapter 274: Interstellar Female Anchor (20)

He should never have taken it lightly, thinking that as a Superpower User, no one would dare strike at him.

Su Huaiyuan was full of regret, but now he was powerless as a hefty boss’s henchman stepped forward, tied him up, and took him to a room.

The thought of what was to come filled Su Huaiyuan with such fear and disgust that it was unbearable.

--------------

Yang Huai was completely unaware of everything happening to his good brother; he was so overwhelmed with his own problems that he had no time to pay attention to anything else.

The Yang Family’s mansion had collapsed, and their resources had been plundered.

Those who had been offended seized the chance to kick him while he was down.

Yang Huai had been unassailable not only because of his status as a Superpower User but also because the power of the Yang Family stood behind him, causing even those who harbored thoughts of revenge to weigh their options carefully. This had allowed him to sail through life with ease.

But this time around, because he had wanted to ingratiate himself with Su Li, it was the Federation’s upper echelon that had made a move.

Those who despised Yang Huai now saw their chance to strike him when he was weak and take his life.

Yang Huai narrowly escaped another attack from a Superpower User, seriously injured, covered in blood, with his entire right arm limp and dangling at his side, and a long, laser gun scorched mark stretched across his handsome face.

He was the only one left of the Yan Family now, and a fierce determination flashed in Yang Huai’s eyes—he swore to not rest until he had his revenge.

Panting heavily, he huddled like a rat in the dark sewers, hiding underneath a damp and cold bridge, shivering as he pulled a small bottle out from his clothing with his somewhat functional left hand.

He carefully poured the Medicine Powder from the bottle onto his wound.

The intense pain caused by the contact of the Medicine Powder with his flesh made him grimace, his face contorting like a ferocious monster.

"Thud thud thud..." The sound of footsteps scraping against the ground reached his ears.

Only twenty-odd meters apart, Yang Huai was shocked to discover the approach of someone.

His abilities had been nearly depleted by his injuries; even an ordinary person could easily knock him down at this point.

Who could it be? The place he had chosen was incredibly secluded, and he had only managed to shake off his pursuer by sacrificing an arm.

Struggling to get up from the ground, Yang Huai’s mind raced desperately for a chance to escape.

"Never thought you’d see this day, did you... Huai Zhi... brother..."

That familiar, yet foreign term of endearment made Yang Huai think of someone.

That kid, a bit younger than him, always liked calling him that.

But that was, indeed, the most humiliating moment of his life.

Although he had awakened his Superpower at a very young age, because his father was the housekeeper of the Yang Family, he too had to bow and scrape like an ordinary young master.

"Look at you now, you look just like a miserable, dying dog..."

Yan Xuan slowly approached, gazing down at Yang Huai lying on the ground.

"It’s you..." Yang Huai said resentfully, "You’re still not dead."

Yan Xuan sneered, "How could I possibly die before all those who harmed me?"

"But anyway, now there’s only one of you disgusting people left."

A small knife appeared between Yan Xuan’s fingers, "I’m about to give you a swift end."

Yang Huai’s pupils contracted as he shouted with difficulty, "Wait..."

Before he could finish his plea, the gleaming blade of the small knife had already pierced his throat.

Yang Huai never dreamed he would die in such a humiliating way.

He clutched at his neck, from which blood bubbles incessantly streamed, emitting a ghastly sound in agony, his eyes wide open, slowly letting his body stiffen.

Three years later, Su Li continued her legend on the Star Network, her fame known throughout the heavens.

It would be hard to find another woman in the entire interstellar who knew how to enjoy life as much as she did.

Her daily life was literally everyone’s dream goal.

In the meantime, Su Li had once returned to the Federation, following the ruler of Xu Hai Prison to trade with the most powerful forces of the Dark World.

To her surprise, she found Su Huaiyuan, dressed to the nines, beside the fat boss of the opposing side.

If not for his familiar silhouette, even with much effort, Su Li might not have been able to associate the person in front of her with the clear-spirited man of her memory.

The handsome man who was always cold and derisive to the original owner had now become a pretty plaything, vying for favor amongst a group of men.

He probably couldn’t have imagined it himself.

Because Su Li had concealed her true appearance, no amount of makeup could hide the weariness that emanated from Su Huaiyuan’s core; he didn’t realize Su Li was there.

When he caught Su Li’s glance, he glared back fiercely without any courtesy.

He treated Su Li as just another bauble to please the bosses.

Su Li withdrew her gaze, speechless; she had never imagined he would end up like this.

After sending off the fat boss, Su Huaiyuan, covered in bruises, returned to his room.

He skillfully applied ointment to the few unmarred patches of his skin.

The fat boss was a pervert, infinitely creative in his torment; even with his Superpower User constitution, stronger than an ordinary person, he was struggling to keep up.

By now, Su Huaiyuan had adopted a carefree attitude; initially forced and by a man at that, he had boiled with murderous hatred.

Yet now, he had grown accustomed; he resolved to surrender to his fate. As long as he lay down, whatever he wanted was easily provided, which wasn’t so bad.

Since escape was impossible, it was better to gather whatever he could.

The fat boss’s interest in him wasn’t as intense as it had been at first; today, he had to strain his wits just to bring him over.

After the fat boss left, Su Huaiyuan looked at the delicious Sky Beast Meat that was sent to him, his thoughts complex.

Seeing this delicacy, he couldn’t help but think of the sister he once scorned, Su Li.

That revolutionary drug changing the entire interstellar landscape had originally come from her.

No one could unravel how it was created, and even now the Federation had invested enormous resources, unable to decode the medicine’s composition.

To use it, one had to purchase directly from her.

Su Huaiyuan had not thought about his past life in a long time and didn’t want to.

But sometimes he couldn’t help but think, if he had just humbled himself a little back then, his current situation would be utterly different.

A simple apology; compared to this numb life, who knows how much better it would be.

But there was no turning back.

He hadn’t seen his mother, Alice, in a long time, supposedly she had entered the Golden Cave...

Who knows? He couldn’t even take care of himself now, let alone a mother who was a burden.
