Chapter 1706: Chapter 1699: I’m Just an Ordinary Person

When the first ray of morning light filtered through the curtains and fell into the room, the once dim room became bright.

Through the sunlight, one could clearly see a voluptuous woman tightly embracing a well-built man on a double bed, her whole body wrapped around him like an octopus. Her long, black hair was spread out on both sides, covering half of her charming face, which had a hint of a blush, with a smile that suggested she was having a beautiful dream.

Feeling the sunlight outside becoming brighter and warmer, the man opened his eyes and turned to look at the delicate and alluring face in close proximity. A radiant smile appeared on his lips, as if recalling the wild scene from the night before.

Last night, Lu Tianxing had been fighting on the bed until the early hours before reluctantly letting Shen Manjun off the hook, who could no longer withstand it. But now, recalling the experience of the previous night, Lu Tianxing felt a small flame igniting in his heart, longing to wake Shen Manjun for a few more rounds.

There’s no denying it—Shen Manjun is truly like a ripe peach, with a taste that makes one reluctant to part. The subtle allure of her resistance and acceptance left Lu Tianxing reflecting that even if he were a beast, he probably wouldn’t choose to let go of such a temptation.

Men often think with their lower bodies; no matter how guilty they may feel afterward, they never consider these things at the moment.

Lu Tianxing gazed at that captivating face, unadorned yet uniquely attractive, and feeling a surge of emotion in his heart, he couldn’t help but lean down to peck Shen Manjun on her rosy lips.

Even in her sleep, Shen Manjun seemed to sense something, suddenly awakening with sleepy eyes and instinctively trying to move her body. Immediately, she felt a tearing pain that brought her back to her senses, realizing what had happened.

A hint of blush flitted across her cheeks, but Shen Manjun wasn’t particularly bashful, after all, she had long outgrown the age of a shy young girl and didn’t feel the need to be constantly shy. Glancing coquettishly at Lu Tianxing, she said, ”You really are a pervert.”

”Hehe, a pervert gets to enjoy the spoils, otherwise, you’d have to be vegetarian for life. Could you really bear to see me eat vegetables for a lifetime?”

Lu Tianxing chuckled, unconcerned with Shen Manjun’s eye roll, gently stroking her silky hair as he asked softly, ”Did you sleep well last night?”

”Mm.”

Shen Manjun nodded slightly, her gaze landing on Lu Tianxing, as she wistfully said, ”Aren’t you going to ask me why Shankou Kiyotaka attacked the Shen Family or what genetic enhancement technology he wanted?”

”I’m not concerned about that. I only care that you’re alright. Besides, I’m just an ordinary person without grand ambitions. I don’t desire accolades, what’s genetic enhancement technology got to do with me?”

Lu Tianxing shook his head with a smile, genuinely having no interest in the so-called genetic enhancement technology. He was neither a ruler nor an ambitious person; he was just an ordinary person, focusing on protecting those around him from harm. To him, these things were far more important than some genetic enhancement technology.

”Do you really not care?”

Raising her head to check if Lu Tianxing was lying, Shen Manjun asked.

”Why would I care? Could this thing turn me into an Earthly Immortal?”

Lu Tianxing embraced Shen Manjun, savoring the smooth feeling of her skin against his.

”It can’t make you an Earthly Immortal, but it can turn an ordinary person into a super soldier in the shortest possible time, a super soldier comparable to a martial artist.” Shen Manjun slowly explained to Lu Tianxing.

”A super soldier on par with a martial artist?”

Lu Tianxing was momentarily stunned: ”Do you mean it’s similar to the American beast-transformer they secretly researched before?”

Beast-transformers are unique beings, different from Superpower Users and martial artists. While martial artists and Superpower Users rely on self-cultivation to enhance strength, beast-transformers are capable of obtaining unimaginable strength right from the start, including speed, defense, and attack power. Having dealt with beast-transformers before, he knew that once transformed, they were unrecognizable, attacking anyone they saw, only returning to normal once their energy depleted.

Since such beast-transformers were completely uncontrollable, America eventually abandoned their research. After all, with Superpower Users in existence, who would research a pack of uncontrollable beasts?

”What you said isn’t entirely correct.”

Shen Manjun shook her head, saying, ”America’s beast-transformers extracted genes from beasts and merged them with human genes, but genetic enhancement technology is entirely different. In simple terms, it’s a human potential development technology. By unlocking human potential, it allows a person to become a super soldier in a short time. It could be said that, given adequate nutrition, it can almost enhance a person’s potential without any side effects.”

”That’s amazing. Does it work on martial artists too?” A shocked expression flashed across Lu Tianxing’s face as he instinctively asked after hearing Shen Manjun’s words.

If it worked on martial artists, it would indeed be terrifying. Imagine if a martial artist, when breaking through, used such potential-enhancing technology to boost their potential. It could significantly increase their chances of breaking through. If this got out, the whole world might go crazy over it. After all, compared to all kinds of thermal weapons, martial artists are genuinely the most formidable trump card. Enhancing martial artists’ strength without limit might even render a third world war inconsequential.

”No.”

Shen Manjun shook her head with a bitter smile and said, ”That’s the greatest flaw of genetic enhancement technology. It can enhance the potential of ordinary people, giving them speed and strength several times that of a normal person, but it cannot enhance the potential of martial artists.”

Hearing Shen Manjun’s words, Lu Tianxing nodded thoughtfully. If this technology were effective on martial artists, the Shen Family Mansion wouldn’t have been attacked last night. After all, if it worked on martial artists, a country could effortlessly cultivate countless martial artists. The Shen Family would have been tightly protected by security measures well beforehand.

Moreover, if there were an attempt to seize this technology, it wouldn’t just be the Shankou Family appearing; they’d be facing an assault from global forces.

”By the way, Tianxing, are you planning to leave Beijing?” Shen Manjun suddenly asked, looking at Lu Tianxing.

”Mm, things in Beijing are almost resolved. As for the Yang Family, I can’t make a move on them yet. I’m planning to visit Qin Island first.” Lu Tianxing replied gently while caressing Shen Manjun’s smooth back.

PS: Regarding the updates, it’s not that I don’t want to accelerate them. As you know, during this book’s suspension, I started a new book. Managing two books simultaneously is exhausting. I’ll find a time to update in bursts. I hope you’ll understand!!!
