Chapter 61 of "Post-Mythical Era: I don't want to die in the third reincarnation" opens presenting: The Genetic Alliance's stronghold in Pu Hai was wiped out, including nearly twenty of its... Don’t stop now!

The Genetic Alliance's stronghold in Pu Hai was wiped out, including nearly twenty of its managers, with Vice Alliance Hierarch Gu Xian among them, none survived. Despite the fact that the strong members of the Genetic Alliance were unharmed in the incident, it dealt a heavy blow to the organization. Shi Changqian, the Alliance Hierarch of the Genetic Alliance, was furious. He vowed to capture the culprit and execute them in public, then tell the entire world that this was the consequence of daring to mess with the Genetic Alliance. However, the Pu Hai Security Department responded indifferently to the incident, ignoring Shi Changqian's demands for a comprehensive investigation that spared no detail. Such a reaction cooled Shi Changqian down; this was Hua Xia after all. The Genetic Alliance, as a global organization, was still unable to influence how the official Hua Xia agencies operated. The Genetic Alliance had many strong individuals, but so did the Hua Xia Security Department, and the Martial Arts Alliance was also part of it. Out of options, Shi Changqian had no choice but to conduct his own investigation. What offered a sliver of comfort to Shi Changqian was that Qin Qiang and Antonio had provided useful clues. Before entering the East Communication Gene Center Building, they encountered a herb trader at the entrance. Carrying a large sack, it seemed the trader had just come out of the East Communication Gene Center Building; he was a major suspect in the crime. Even with the complete lack of cooperation from the Pu Hai Security Department, the Genetic Alliance had still managed to find out that the herb trader knew Fang Chong and had had a long conversation with him. "Bring Fang Chong to the Genetic Alliance immediately," Shi Changyi almost roared the command with killing intent. Antonio shook his head, "Alliance Hierarch, I'm afraid that's not possible." "Why not?" Shi Changyi asked, puzzled as he looked at Antonio. Even if the Genetic Alliance's standing was not as good in Hua Xia as in other places, bringing a student here shouldn't pose any problem, right? Not to mention that such an incident would not likely reach the Security Department, but even if it did, he couldn't believe that the Security Department would fall out with the Genetic Alliance over a student. Antonio explained, "Fang Chong has joined the Da Han Yi Academy. We went to demand his return, but they simply sent our people back after a single response." "What did they say?" Shi Changyi asked subconsciously. "They said, 'What's the Genetic Alliance? Do you have the right to demand someone from my Da Han Yi Academy? Are you still half asleep?'" Antonio really didn't want to repeat these words, but Shi Changyi was insistent, so he had to relay them again. "Who said that?" Shi Changyi was unusually devoid of his previous anger. "A Martial Arts Department instructor from Da Han Yi Academy, Guo Qingrong." "You didn't go looking for Zhang Yongcheng..." Shi Changyi started to say, but then realized he shouldn't have said that. If there was one person in the world who looked down most upon the Genetic Alliance, it would undoubtedly be Zhang Yongcheng. Seeking out Guo Qingrong might only result in a few mocking words, but seeking Zhang Yongcheng might actually lead to physical confrontation. "Go tell Hou Hezhong to continue investigating other leads; I will seek out Qu Weimin from the Martial Arts Alliance and Nong Yizhen from True Universe Academy. I refuse to believe that a murderer has nowhere to turn for justice." Shi Changyi felt so stifled it was as if he was going to cough up blood. He somewhat regretted going to Kunlun Mountain – he got nothing, and the Genetic Alliance had been turned upside down. Now the situation was worse – he had a lead but couldn't pursue it. Had the Genetic Alliance ever felt such constraint since its inception? In any other country, the Genetic Alliance would strut around unimpeded. As long as Genetic Beasts roamed on Earth, the Genetic Alliance's standing would not falter in the slightest. This iron rule was unenforceable in Pu Hai, how could he accept this? ... In Yiling City, Xiu Lake District, at the Qu Yonghe residence. "Yiyi, it really isn't okay to remove it now, it's too soon, it's only been six days," Wen Xing pleaded earnestly at Qu Yi's bedside. Not just Wen Xing, but Yan Quan and Qu Yonghe were also persuading Qu Yi to wait another half a month. Qu Yi said, "Aunt Xing, I really do know my own condition. I not only know that my right eye has almost recovered, but I also feel that my left eye is slowly healing. I have confidence in this – trust me, this won't cause much impact." In just one short week, after practicing Luo Shijin, Qu Yi felt rapid progress and even suspected that she'd reach the rank of a level one gene cultivator within a few more days. According to reason, she shouldn't feel this way, but yet she had this premonition, which was entirely due to the confidence gained from practicing Luo Shijin. Qu Yi truly felt her eyes were healed. "Okay, then." Seeing Qu Yi's determination, Wen Xing could only look at Qu Yonghe and Yan Quan, then agreed to her request. Being a top-notch surgeon, if the eyes were not fully recovered, it likely wouldn't be a big issue. They turned off the lights and removed the bandages... "Yiyi, how are your eyes?" Yan Quan's voice trembled. Qu Yi also said with a tremor, "I can see, I can see...thank you, thank you..." She could not only see, but her vision was crystal clear. It wasn't only her recently operated right eye that could see, but the other eye also perceived a hazy light, confirming that her feelings were correct, that both her eyes would eventually return to their original state. As she spoke, tears streamed down Qu Yi's face. ``` She thought she was about to spend her life in darkness, but she hadn't expected to see the light again. Having experienced darkness, she knew better than anyone how precious the light was to her. At that moment, everyone in the room was happy for Qu Yi. After a brief period of adjustment, Wen Xing turned on the light. Qu Yi felt no discomfort at all, and the others could already see her eyes. The eye that had just undergone surgery shined like a star. Her other eye began to show obvious signs of recovery too. Could Qu Yi have recovered so much in such a short time? "How is this possible?" Wen Xing was the first to disbelieve; she had performed the surgery herself and knew that even with a speedy recovery, it would take months for Qu Yi to reach the current state of recovery if it went well. But now, it seemed Qu Yi had only taken six days. Six days? "It's truly divine arts..." Qu Yonghe exclaimed in astonishment. No doubt, Wen Xing's surgical skills were unparalleled, but Qu Yonghe didn't believe Qu Yi's eyes could have recovered to this extent in six days solely because of Wen Xing's efforts. Clearly, a large part of it was thanks to Ding Huan. "Yi Yi, can you see something with your other eye too?" Yan Quan noticed something different about Qu Yi's other eye that hadn't been operated on, and immediately asked. Before, when Qu Yi was injured, that eye had been a dull gray, but now it also had a hint of light in it. "Yes, I can see now, thank you..." Qu Yi said thanks again. "Mr. Ding is a benefactor to our whole family." Yan Quan couldn't help but press her hands together in gratitude. "Where did Mr. Ding go?" Qu Yi couldn't help but ask. Yan Quan replied, "Mr. Ding left after saving you, and we don't know where he went." But Qu Yi knew that Ding Huan had done more than just save her. She could recover so quickly and even felt her strength improving day by day because she had been cultivating the Luo Shijin passed on to her by Ding Huan. Was this simply a matter of being benefactors? Qu Yonghe hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Yi Yi, I think you need to be told, and you must know..." "Yonghe..." Yan Quan quickly called out to her husband, worried that the news might be bad for Qu Yi's health. Qu Yonghe slowly said, "Our Qu family does not forget kindness and betray benefactors. Ding Huan has shown such great kindness to Qu Yi; if I don't speak up, that would be truly forgetting our benefactor, and I cannot do that." Hearing Qu Yonghe say this, Yan Quan had nothing more to say and just nodded with reddening eyes. "Dad, what's wrong?" Qu Yi sensed something amiss as the atmosphere seemed to grow heavy. Her health had improved, her eyes had recovered, so why did her parents and Aunt Xing seem guilty after their initial excitement? "Yi Yi, actually, your eyes are Ding Huan's, he gave one of his own to you..." Before Qu Yonghe could finish, Qu Yi was stunned into silence. For a long while, she didn't say a word, nor did she move. "Yi Yi..." Seeing Qu Yi's reaction, Yan Quan quickly stepped forward to support her. "Why did you agree to this..." Suddenly, Qu Yi felt a painful sourness in her eyes, and her heart was full of torment, making it difficult to speak. If she had known that the eyes came from Ding Huan, she would have rather lived forever in darkness. "Yi Yi, your dad and I didn't agree, but Mr. Ding insisted on doing it. He said that only his eyes could be restored to you, others wouldn't work..." Yan Quan carefully comforted her daughter. Although Yan Quan knew Ding Huan misspoke, saying donate to your daughter not return to your daughter, she still relayed Ding Huan's exact words to Qu Yi. Qu Yonghe also added, "I don't know the relationship between you and Ding Huan, but you owe him a great debt of gratitude. You must repay him in the future." "No, I can't accept his eyes. We must find him and return his eyes to him..." Qu Yi cried. If she kept Ding Huan's eyes, she would never forgive herself for her whole life, nor would she ever be happy. Ding Huan was still being pursued, and if his eyes had been given to her, what would he do? Would the evildoers of the Genetic Alliance let such an opportunity pass? Qu Yonghe tried to speak in a gentler tone, "Yi Yi, firstly, since Ding Huan has given you his eyes, he hopes you will get better, not disappoint his expectations. If you return the eyes to Ding Huan, do you know where he is now? Besides, a life-saving debt must be repaid with a life-saving repayment. Ding Huan is currently being hunted. If you work hard with your talents, even if you don't join the Blue Star Ten Great Colleges, in the future you may well become a gene cultivator. If your strength improves, you can help Ding Huan in the future, even at the cost of your life, and your mom and I will not stop you, because your life was saved by him." Qu Yonghe's words instantly sobered and calmed Qu Yi. Indeed, Ding Huan was being hunted, where could she go to find him and return his eyes? Also, Ding Huan had taught her such a powerful cultivation technique. After just a few days of cultivation, she felt her strength noticeably increase. If she continued cultivating, she would definitely be able to help Ding Huan one day. Just as her father had said, her life had been saved by Ding Huan, and even her eyes were given by him; in the future, even if it meant giving her life for him, she would be willing. One day when she could see Ding Huan again, she would give the eyes back to him. (Today's update ends here, friends. Good night!) ```
