"If it's just Lei Zang, it's easy." Lin An said, "Xiaoxin, don't ask. The result has been set. Even if you know something, you can't move back. So, don't get involved in this matter anymore. Go to the Southern Vermilion Army. Don't carry too many burdens. It's not up to you to decide."
Lin Jingxin said, "If I insist on going to the station, Third Uncle, are you going to kidnap me and take me to the Southern Vermilion Army?"
Lin An asked, "What do you think?"
Lin Jingxin said, "Third Uncle, tell me, which is more important, the interests of the family or the justice of the human race?"
Lin An's face changed. He sighed and gently patted the shoulder of his nephew, one of the most outstanding young men in the family, and said, "It's not important. The survival of the human race is the most important."
"But Li Mu …" Lin Jingxin still wanted to say something.
Lin An said, "He's an extraterrestrial demon. It's already been decided."
…
…
"Sister, what did you say?" Ye Ying's eyes widened in disbelief.
In front of her family, the beautiful scout captain no longer maintained the coldness that kept people a thousand miles away. She asked in shock, "Li Mu is a demon of the extraterrestrial demon camp?"
"Is the instruction of the Seven-Star Magic Lamp fake?" Ye He said.
"The instruction of the Wuhou Military Region?"
Ye Ying was stunned.
"How could this be?"
"But those villagers clearly said that Li Mu came from the fruit of the longevity tree." Ye Ying couldn't help retorting, "Do you think the longevity tree will lie to us?"
Ye He said flatly, "The longevity tree doesn't lie, but most of the villagers in the small village are ignorant and can be deceived. What they see may not be the truth. Think about it yourself. Don't you think there are too many things wrong with Li Mu?"
"Well …" Ye Ying wanted to say something, but it was stuck in his throat and he couldn't say it.
Indeed, when he descended, he was not in the state of an infant. Four months after his descent, he already possessed such incredible strength and fought against the Moon Emperor and his army head-on. Indeed, he did not match the state of the chosen one of the Longevity Tree, but … but he was really a good person.
Thinking of the brief contact with Li Mu on the way, no matter from which aspect, Li Mu did not seem to be a cruel and vicious demon.
"Speechless now, right?" Ye He said, "Alright, I've already told you everything you wanted to know. Even if you go to the relay station now, it's already too late. Just obediently return to Karghalik with me. The Life and Death Arena of the Holy War will open in a year's time. The Patriarch has decided to send you to Ling Xiao Peak to train and prepare for the Life and Death Arena of the Holy War."
"Then … what about Xiao Jianfei and the other scouts? Even if Li Mu is a demon of the Extraterrestrial Demons, the others are innocent. Are they all right? " He thought about how Lin Jingxin had been taken away by the Lin Family before he left. The meaning behind this was terrifying.
Ye He said, "I don't know about that."
As the Big Sister of the Ye Clan, and the candidate for the future Clan Leader, this was Ye He's style. She would speak her mind and speak her mind. She would never tell a white lie, nor would she beat around the bush. Her words and actions were resolute and resolute, leaving no room for doubt.
"I … I want to see Li Mu one last time. Will he be captured and brought to the City Lord's Mansion?" Ye Ying seemed to have made up his mind.
Ye He's face revealed a look of surprise.
She looked seriously at her sister, who was known as an ice beauty, and her brows gradually furrowed. "How long have you known Li Mu? You'd better extinguish the flame in your heart completely. "
Ye Ying was stunned. She immediately blushed and said, "Big Sister, what are you thinking?"
"What I'm thinking is not important. What's important is whether you know what you're thinking." Ye He's expression had a natural sense of oppression. Her eyes were as sharp as knives. She stared at Ye Ying and said, "From now on, you are not allowed to see Li Mu again. What's more, this time, the military has given the order to kill without mercy and leave no one alive. At this time, I'm afraid he is already dead."
As soon as she said that.
Dong, dong, dong!
There was a knock on the door.
One of Ye He's personal female swordsmen came in and whispered something in her ear.
Ye He said calmly, "I got it. You can go out."
"Big Sister, what's wrong?" Ye Ying asked hurriedly.
Ye He said, "Li Mu has escaped."
…
…
City Lord's Mansion.
In the backyard, the prison.
The pungent smell of blood permeated the air.
"Hoho, Xiao Jianfei, you've been in the army for a long time. You should know that no one can withstand the 72 kinds of torture in the army. I advise you not to stubbornly resist. You'd better admit it and cooperate with us. Don't waste our time."
The crackling of the torches was particularly harsh.
Lei Zang sat opposite the torture rack with a faint smile on his face.
Xiao Jianfei, who was covered in blood, was on the cross-shaped torture rack. Apart from his face, there was not a single piece of skin that was left intact. From this afternoon until nightfall, a total of six hours had passed. All kinds of torture had caused this elite Silver-tier Scout Captain to be on the verge of death.
Xiao Jianfei did not respond to Lei Zang's question at all.
He hung his head. His arms were tied to the torture rack, and his legs were fixed. He could not struggle. He could only gasp violently, with blood flowing down the corners of his mouth. He gave up any struggle and tried to recover as much as possible.
"You still don't cooperate?"
Lei Zang shook his head and said, "Old Xiao, after all, we used to be in the same team. I came out of nowhere and took your position, but you did your best to assist me. You have no complaints. In fact, I'm very satisfied with you. If it weren't for this time, maybe we could be good partners …"
"Shame." Xiao Jianfei suddenly said.
"What?" Lei Zang was stunned.
"Being your partner is … the shame of my life. So, don't say it again. I, Xiao Jianfei … can't lose my face." Xiao Jianfei slowly raised his head. The disdain and contempt on his face were like a knife that stabbed into Lei Zang's heart.
"Is it worth it for you to do this for Li Mu?"
Lei Zang lost his patience.
He slowly stood up, his face covered with frost. As he spoke, he picked up the torture tools and a trace of cruelty flashed across the corner of his mouth.
"Li Mu? He is indeed a man. You are not as good as him. But what I did was not just for him. " Xiao Jianfei slowly ran the Yuan Qi in his body and regained some strength. He looked up at Lei Zang and sneered, "What I insist on is justice and truth … The chaos is orderly, the Taoist Heart is stable. With my body, I defend my principles. Do you understand the sacred words of the human army?"
Lei Zang's heart was stung by Xiao Jianfei's expression.
When he was about to say something, there was a knock on the door.
"Didn't I tell you? No one is to disturb me when I'm interrogating the prisoner. Do you want to die? "Lei Zang scolded angrily.
"Your honor, it's the news from the station." A voice came from outside the door.
Lei Zang snorted and said, "Come in."
A warrior in black armor and ghost mask walked in. He lowered his head and held a jade plate in his hand. On the plate was a jade slip, which was shining with a faint black luster.
It was the exclusive communication jade slip of the sect!
Lei Zang did not dare to hesitate. He took the jade slip and injected his Yuan Qi into it. Then, his face changed dramatically. "Li Mu escaped?"
He held the jade slip and pondered for a long time.
"Since Li Mu escaped, I can't kill Xiao Jianfei for the time being."
"I must make good use of this pawn."
Thinking of that, Lei Zang suddenly turned around and walked to Xiao Jianfei. He said with a faint smile, "What did you just say? Justice and truth? Well, very good. Xiao Jianfei, I remember that your daughter has just turned one year old. She is in Feixing City. "
Xiao Jianfei's face changed.
It was the first time that he really panicked since he was caught and put in prison.
"Well, if you admit what is written in the military report and help me testify against Li Mu, not only will I not kill you, but I will let you continue to be my assistant. You know my sect background is enough for you to make a meteoric rise in a few years. I can see that you are a capable man. All you need is a chance. As long as you do as I say, I won't touch your wife and children. What do you think?"
Lei Zang approached and said with a tempting tone.
Seeing Xiao Jianfei's face, he knew that he had really grasped Xiao Jianfei's weakness.
Xiao Jianfei was silent, thinking about something.
Lei Zang struck while the iron was hot and said, "You are just a civilian officer. You have no one to rely on and no background. Why do you insist? Don't you know that even Lin Jingxin of the Lin family and Ye Ying of the Ye family have chosen to stay out of trouble? There's a deep water behind this. You've endured so much torture and torture for Li Mu. You've done him justice. If you continue to resist, it won't help. You've done this with a clear conscience. "
At this time, there were only Xiao Jianfei, Lei Zang, and the black-armored ghost-masked warrior holding the tray in his hand.
The air was filled with a strange atmosphere.
After about 10 minutes, Xiao Jianfei slowly raised his head.
Lei Zang said, "How about it? Brother Xiao, have you made up your mind? "
"Since the day I became a silver scout, no, since the day I became a soldier of the human race, I swore by the sword and the military badge to defend the race, protect the weak, uphold justice, and abide by the truth." Xiao Jianfei's eyes were no longer flustered, and his expression became calm. He said, "You will not understand the integrity of a real human race soldier in the Chaotic World."
Lei Zang's heart sank, and he looked angry and vicious. He said, "Xiao Jianfei, think about your wife and daughter. What kind of price will they bear because of your decision?"
"If this is the price that a real soldier should pay," Xiao Jianfei said calmly, "then I can only choose to accept it. I believe they will not hate me for it."
"You … Haha, you are really stubborn." Lei Zang's face was grim. Seeing that he could not do anything, he simply changed his mind. He stabbed the bone knife in his hand toward Xiao Jianfei's eyebrows and said, "Then I will send you to hell first, and then send your wife and daughter to see you."
Xiao Jianfei closed his eyes and did not resist.
Clang!
The bone knife was hit away and stuck into the wall.
Lei Zang looked at the black-armored ghost-masked warrior who had been standing beside him with great shock and said, "What are you doing? Are you crazy? "
Just now, this person actually hit away the knife in his hand.
"No, who are you?"
