Let the Villain Go - Chapter 195

Chapter 195

Xin Ziming had just returned to the Qilin base when Ye Peitian and General Jiang had come to him.Ye Peitian explained his intention concisely.

“Miss Chu was caught?” Xin Ziming frowned, his fingers lightly pressed on the table, “You are right to save her, but you must know that it is more difficult to rescue a person from the demon than to kill this demon. The demon’s thoughts can’t be understood by our human minds. They are moody, have different ideas, and are difficult to negotiate with. It is even possible that the rescuer will hurt the hostage as soon as it appears.”

Ye Peitian pulled out a round crystal core from his pocket and placed it firmly on the table. It was a tenth-order crystal core representing the highest level at present. It was just taken by him in the battle not long ago. 

“I hope that you will do your best to help me,” he said, then looked at General Jiang.

“No, don’t mention this to me, I don’t need anything,” General Jiang interrupted him, “Sister Qianxun rescued me twice, and Yu Yu is also my enemy, so I will for sure join you to save her.”

Xin Ziming looked at the tenth order crystal core on the table quietly.

He was a ninth-order saint and the tenth-order crystal core was the key to his advancement, and it was also the reason he went to Peitian initially. However, Ye Peitian exerted too much energy in each battle, which caused him to have no intention of negotiating with him to exchange for the crystal core. But this time, Ye Peitian took the initiative to put the crystal core in front of him. 

He was the head of the mercenary regiment, and the mercenary’s collection of demons would have been justified.

But he knew that this was the best time to enter into a relationship with Ye Peitian. If he took the crystal core, then they may always be friends in a relationship of interest. However, if General Jiang made the effort today at no cost, they would become brothers.

However, he teamed up with Ye Peitian several times to hunt for demons, and he clearly realized the huge opportunities and benefits. Now in his team, the weapons of the top group of people were basically either the ninth-order or the tenth-order. It could be said to make them proud in front of other regiments. Also, they had ninth-order crystal cores in the hand, which could be used for the eighth-order group members to advance one more. That was a qualitative leap for the strength of their entire team.

Not only did he realize that, but the heads of other regiments also quickly noticed the advantages of cooperating with the half demon. Many people began to look for Ye Peitian for cooperation.

Xin Ziming at the end, remembered Chu Qianxun’s appearance in the cemetery that day. The female saint stood for a long time in front of the white snow tombstone, shrouded in real and rich sorrow.

Xin Ziming finally made a decision and pushed back the crystal core he had longed for, “We are brothers, don’t say this. Of course, I have to save my younger sister.”

He reached out and patted Ye Peitian’s shoulder, “Don’t worry too much. Wait, we will discuss the countermeasures before we have a chance to rescue Qianxun.”

Ye Peitian came to Xin Ziming with General Jiang. General Jiang looked eager and anxious. On the contrary, Ye Peitian, who had a closer relationship with Chu Qianxun, seemed very calm.

But that was only what outsiders saw. For senior spiritual saints like Xin Ziming, even if they couldn’t gain insight into the people’s heart, they still had a keen grasp of their true emotions.

He knew in his heart that Ye Peitian seemed calm at the moment, but it was just a thin film that was near to breaking. Underneath the seemingly calm person was the violent stormy sky, the turbulent deep sea, and the crumbling figure standing on the cliff.

“Well, I know, I know,” Ye Peitian replied calmly.

Xin Ziming went around the table and patted his shoulders hard twice, then spread out a map on the table, “Our Qilin base is here,” he pointed to the location on the map. “And the jungle the demon mentioned is at this location. It had been two or three days since we came back. I guess they should have returned to the demon’s nest.”

“So we have to rush over at full speed, otherwise Sister Qianxun will be in danger!” General Jiang didn’t want to read the map at all. He just wanted to pull the two of them to run as fast as possible.

“Their purpose is Peitian. Before he goes there, he probably won’t do anything to Qianxun. If he wanted to do something…” Xin Ziming glanced at Ye Peitian and swallowed the rest of the words.

If he wanted to do something he would have already done it, and it was already too late.

Ye Peitian’s right hand suddenly shook uncontrollably. His other hand stretched out quickly and held his right hand tightly. After a moment, he moved his lips gently, “You continue.”

“We must plan carefully. This demon is tenth-order, powerful in spirit, and he can monitor a wide range. We must formulate a perfect plan, how to approach him, how to fight, and how to rescue Qianxun without angering him,” Xin Ziming was a sober and thoughtful person. Plus he had relatively weak feelings for Chu Qianxun. He was able to stabilize his mind, calmly analyze the terrain, and attack tactics.

“However, we can all discuss it slowly on the road. I will ask someone to arrange a carriage,” he waved and ordered his subordinates to prepare for the trip.

“There is a person whose ability is very special.” Ye Peitian pointed to a base between Qilin and the Devil’s Cave, “He is in Beizhen now. I want to get his help.”

General Jiang: “Who? Who is there, is there any strong man in Beizhen? Is he stronger than you?”

“Beizhen?” Xin Ziming pondered for a moment, thinking of a character, “You mean that chain of blood, Chen Jianbai? His ability is certainly suitable, but isn’t he used to running after you, trying to catch you?”
