Zhang Kuang's body had not yet fully recovered. Only most of it had taken shape, leaving him unable to use any skills to stop this.
But even if he recovered, he would only be at domain sequence level one.
Against a skill unleashed by his elder brother, who was already at domain sequence level three, he probably still would not be able to stop it.
Zhang Kuang twisted his body frantically, pleading over and over, "Brother, stop! I'm begging you!!"
Old Johnny ignored him. He simply watched Zhang Kuang quietly, watching his body recover bit by bit.
"Li Tianming..."
Old Johnny called out weakly.
Seeing Old Johnny in this state, seeing him willing to sacrifice himself to save Zhang Kuang, Li Tianming felt no resentment toward him, only sorrow.
"If you have any last words, just say them. Old Zhang and I will do our best to fulfill your wishes."
Old Johnny said softly, "In my entire life, I've never wronged anyone except Mr. Wen. Mr. Wen is gone now, and I have no regrets left."
"Then what are you trying to say?"
"Li Tianming, Professor Li, as one of the Safe Zone's foremost researchers, you must have some way to rewrite memories, don't you?"
Li Tianming considered it for a moment, then said, "I don't have the ability to rewrite memories myself, but I have a friend who does. I stored that skill of his in an item, so I can use it myself."
"Put simply, you can rewrite memories, correct?"
Li Tianming nodded. "Yes."
"Can those rewritten memories be restored?"
"As long as their sequence level doesn't exceed mine, there's no possibility of restoring them."
"Good."
Old Johnny nodded in satisfaction, then added, "Professor Li, please erase Zhang Kuang's memories of Old Johnny being his brother..."
