My autobiography is definitely not a tragedy!
Chapter 358 - 239 Heart Demon

Chapter 358: Chapter 239 Heart Demon

With a weapon in hand, murderous intent rises naturally.

He didn’t know what others thought, but right now, this was exactly how he felt...

Sitting on the sofa and looking at the notebook placed in front of him, Meng Lang couldn’t help but rub his forehead.

"The style was still about rebirth and entertainment last night, yet today I have to delve into crime and mystery? What an unpredictable life path I’m on..."

If the Night Demon Clan represented a distant future threat, then Xu Jingsong was an immediate, close-at-hand threat.

And it was the kind that could threaten his very life!

The Lin Wei at the police station, Yuan Li in prison, and even a barely related Han Li...

Once his involvement in the divorce case was leaked, it was bound to provoke a crazed revenge from the other party, even the exposure of his cooperation with Gao Yuan could cause a storm.

And right now... there was an easy, once-and-for-all solution.

He only needed to lift a finger...

Last time he helped him get a divorce, this time he could help him draft a will!

If you don’t kill, others might kill you, how would you choose?

As the saying goes, heartless people become rich, and those with murderous intent become emperors!

Emperor Qin Shi Huang had heads rolling in his conquest of the six states, and wasn’t he still regarded as a unique emperor by later generations?

A person who kills another is labeled a murderer, a bad person in the eyes of others, but when he has killed thousands or tens of thousands, he is revered as a great hero!

A man’s way should be violent!

Mercy and affairs do not coexist!

To kill one is a sin, to slaughter thousands is to be valiant, after slaughtering nine million, you are the champion among champions!

Either don’t kill, or everything is fair game!

Throughout history, those who have achieved great things have sacrificed, and today, if I want to accomplish something, the blood sacrifice... will start with Xu Jingsong!

Stroking the smooth-emerald case of the notebook in front of him, the cold glint in Meng Lang’s eyes grew even stronger...

After all, he was the same person, and naturally his thoughts were more or less similar.

It was only natural for him to make the same choices as he did in the previous episode...

"Knock knock!"

The action of opening the notebook abruptly halted.

Seeing the screen that he had already opened halfway, Meng Lang was shocked, and his eyes suddenly regained some clarity.

His back was instantly soaked with cold sweat!

What the hell was I just doing?

It was only natural?

It was only natural my ass!

Would the former me ever boldly claim that this sort of thing was only natural?

What the hell did I just do?

I was convincing myself to commit murder with all sorts of references and quotations?

No! This can’t possibly be me!

Yes! It must be the work of ultra-space radio waves!

Could it be... I was just re-living the mental journey of my "predecessor"?!

Meng Lang broke out in a cold sweat.

Dude! Although I thought that I might eventually choose to kill someone, I’m still not mentally prepared at all, could you not spring this on me so suddenly!

How is this any different from coercing me into a drunken misdeed?

Does being drunk mean it takes no responsibility?!

Luckily, luckily!

If it weren’t for the knocking that just woke me up, Xu Jingsong might have ended up on the front page of tomorrow’s Su City evening paper...

...

"Click!" Meng Lang opened the door, only to see Lin Haitang standing there charmingly.

Her black hair like ink draped over her shoulders, long socks, and a slightly tight-fitting white V-neck cotton house dress, with a black cartoon cat printed on the chest.

Hmm! The cat is cute.

"Why haven’t you come over for dinner so late? Hm? Why are you sweating so much?"

"Oh! It’s nothing, I was just exercising," Meng Lang wiped his sweat.

Dinner time and still exercising?

Lin Haitang looked curiously into the room but didn’t ask any more questions.

"Come and eat, the food Xiao Yu prepared will get cold soon."

"Oh! Sure, thank you, Lawyer Lin!" Meng Lang said with gratitude.

"Thanks for what, it’s just calling you to eat." Lin Haitang smiled.

No, what I really want to thank you for is making me put down the butcher’s knife...

Following behind Lin Haitang, as she turned to open the door of room 1103, his gaze naturally fell on her astonishingly curved waist and hips...

Then he quickly shifted his gaze away.

Do not look at improprieties, do not listen to improprieties, do not speak of improprieties, do not act on improprieties!

Meng Lang chanted inwardly, managing to distract himself.

But he still felt somewhat unsettled.

In just one lifetime, I can’t believe I had already vaguely come to see taking a life as something natural, so what about after a few more times...

The situation I feared most has still come to pass!

The stacking of consciousness through cycles of rebirth can bring me rich knowledge, experience, and other rewards.

But it can also amplify certain emotions of mine.

Like love, like friendship...

However... desire is also an emotion and can naturally be amplified!

Yellow gambling poison is desire, and the thrill of killing is probably even more so!

After all, what could be more straightforward and thrilling than the arduous task of outwitting an opponent?

After the first kill comes the double kill, then the triple kill, until it’s a frenzied slaughter!

Killing is thrilling in the moment, thrilling all the way!

However, for others, this might be a shortcut in life, especially so for my brothers!

Once they overcome their mental obstacles, and they carry out their deeds without anyone knowing, their achievements will surely reach a new level!

But for me, this central signal tower, it’s practically a dead end!

If it weren’t for the reminder from "White Night", I might have ended up making the same choices as he did.

I could have accepted starting to kill, Meng Lang.

But what I can’t accept is becoming like Yagami Yue, who, on the surface, adhered to his sense of justice but actually regarded human lives as worthless, until he completely lost himself and turned into a psychopath who killed without compunction!

It’s like irreversible heavy metal poisoning.

The degree of corruption of my moral foundation can only increase, and the situations of my brothers will only become more severe, caught in a vicious cycle until everything collapses!

Think about it, Xu Jingsong may pose a threat to me, but that’s only a possibility in the future.

If I start this pattern, then in the future, whenever I encounter anyone who may pose a threat, I’m afraid my choice will always be "once and for all."

My future is full of possibilities. Theoretically speaking, even if a passerby poses no threat to me through countless lifetimes, if he just threatens me once, he will become a target for elimination!

Contesting for land leads to bloodshed spreading across the fields.

Contesting for cities leads to bloodshed filling the cities.

Following this logic, if I go to extremes...

To compete with the Night Demon Clan for an Earth, I’m afraid it would lead to bloodshed filling the "globe"!

The Earth that is saved at the price of sacrificing myself...

For me... isn’t that still a tragedy?

Honor on the left, shame on the right, representing at the waist, harmony in the chest, kill those who obstruct me, kill even the Buddha who stands in my way?

That’s not the life I want!

The conflicts between people, besides irreconcilable differences, also include the hostility they’ve accumulated!

If I don’t find a way to control this hostility, I will ultimately be devoured by the incessant waves of murderous intent...

Out of nowhere, a Buddhist chant surfaced in Meng Lang’s mind...

Lay down the butcher’s knife, and become a Buddha on the spot!

The more I think about it, the less it seems to be a saying for ordinary people.

Could it be... this is the hint given to me by my predecessor?

By analogy, this is just breaking one simple taboo against killing, yet human desires are so complex, aren’t they?

Pride and indulgence...

If I indulge my desires unrestrainedly, then under the accumulating and amplifying effect of my autobiography, will I eventually become a lunatic consumed by desires, like King Zhou?

If we go by Buddhist teachings, this should be called...

The Heart Demon!
