"Young hero, if you want to kill someone, just kill me."
"As a father, I didn't protect my daughter well. That's why my daughter became like this."
"As a father, I couldn't save my daughter. That's why I fed her to reduce her pain."
"I didn't have a choice. I really didn't know what to do. If I had the slightest idea, I would never have done this. "
"When did I ever hope that my daughter would become an evil creature or a demon?"
"When did I ever hope that my daughter would have to devour others to survive?"
"I didn't want that. I really didn't want that. If there was a way, I really didn't want to do it in such a way. "
Jiang Family Head wept and complained again. His voice was filled with bitter tears.
His heartfelt words were very touching.
Qin Xiao was also greatly touched. However, Qin Xiao also knew that he couldn't be easily swayed by sympathy.
There were some things that had to be decided.
Blindly sympathizing with others would be irresponsible to others.
Since Qin Xiao was in charge of this matter, he would definitely take care of it well. He couldn't act rashly.
"Patriarch Jiang, I can understand your feelings very well. Although I don't agree with what you did, I can't say that you're guilty of the most heinous crimes. "
"But the matter is the matter. As for how to solve this matter, I hope that you can cooperate with us," Qin Xiao said in a deep voice.
Patriarch Jiang looked at Qin Xiao with a pale and powerless face.
He also knew that no matter how much he said at this time, it would not play a decisive role.
Now, it was up to these two young heroes how to deal with this matter.
Qin Xiao looked at Brother Pure and asked, "How is it? Is there any way to suppress the power in her body?"
Brother Pure shook his head and said with a frown, "I've tried. This one is much more powerful than the previous ones. This is the source."
"And it seems that she has been practicing recently, so she seems to be very powerful."
"If I want to get rid of that strange devouring power, it will probably be quite difficult."
Qin Xiao also expected that it would be difficult.
This matter was definitely not going to be easy.
However, no matter how difficult it was, they had to do it, right? They had to deal with it, right?
What could he do?
"Jiang Lanyan is the source of the evil spirit incident in Lanxi City. If we want to investigate further, we have to trace back to the source."
"Therefore, Jiang Lanyan's place is still quite important. It's an opening for us to break through."
"Although she's the source of the problem, she's also a victim."
"Well, let's search her memory and then decide whether she lives or dies," Qin Xiao said to Brother Pure.
Brother Pure shrugged his shoulders. He didn't care what Qin Xiao said.
Patriarch Jiang's heart tightened. He wanted to beg for mercy, but he knew that it was useless to say anything more.
He had already said what he needed to say.
Now, his daughter's fate could only be decided by the young hero.
As a father, he naturally hoped that Qin Xiao could be merciful and let Jiang Lanyan go this time.
Qin Xiao checked Jiang Lanyan's memory and found that the situation was indeed similar to what Patriarch Jiang said.
However, as for how she was devoured and became a soul eater, it was deliberately erased by a strange force.
Therefore, Qin Xiao couldn't confirm this matter through Jiang Lanyan's memory.
This memory was very vague. She could only vaguely see a figure, and nothing else could be seen clearly. Her memory was completely devoured.
Perhaps Jiang Lanyan's mind was strong, so she could retain some of it. Otherwise, she might not be able to see it at all.
Looking at it this way, Jiang Lanyan was indeed a pure victim. She herself was quite kind and had not done anything that offended the heavens and reason.
It was just that such a disaster happened to fall on her.
And in the past hundred years, she had been restraining herself and fighting with herself.
It was just that she couldn't resist the strange devouring power. In the end, she could only be defeated and controlled.
All these things didn't come out of Jiang Lanyan's nature.
Normally, she also knew this and tried hard to control herself.
However, there was no way to control it.
Once the strange devouring power was activated and gushed out, she couldn't control it.
"Brother Pure, if we want to find out more about the situation, we need Jiang Lanyan's cooperation."
"Although the strange devouring power in her body is very strong and terrifying, we should be able to completely eliminate it if we work together."
"Why don't we save her?" Qin Xiao said to Brother Pure.
Brother Pure shrugged and replied, "We'll listen to you."
Hearing the two's words, Patriarch Jiang, who had been worried all this time, was relieved, and the stone in his heart was put down.
He also hurriedly thanked them, "Thank you, thank you, young heroes. Thank you so much."
Qin Xiao and Brother Pure ignored Patriarch Jiang and began to prepare to eliminate the strange devouring power in Jiang Lanyan's body.
The situation was really complicated and troublesome.
Qin Xiao and Brother Pure worked together, but it still took them a lot of effort and a long time to completely eliminate the strange devouring power in Jiang Lanyan's body.
They completely destroyed the source of the power.
Jiang Lanyan also calmed down. Brother Pure withdrew his means and let Jiang Lanyan go.
Qin Xiao waved his hand and let Patriarch Jiang out.
"Yan 'er, how are you?" Patriarch Jiang immediately came forward and helped Jiang Lanyan up with concern.
Jiang Lanyan looked at Patriarch Jiang, then looked at Qin Xiao and Brother Pure. She felt her body well. It seemed that there was nothing wrong with her body.
The strange devouring power that was originally hidden deep in her body was all gone. She was as good as new.
This kind of feeling was really too wonderful.
After a long while, Jiang Lanyan was sure that she was really fine and came back safely from the demons.
"Father, I'm all right." Jiang Lanyan said to Patriarch Jiang.
Patriarch Jiang suddenly became very excited, "Two young heroes, thank you. Thank you so much. Our Jiang family can't repay your kindness, but we'll remember it in our hearts. "
Jiang Lanyan also immediately thanked Qin Xiao and Brother Pure.
Qin Xiao waved his hand and said, "Miss Jiang Lanyan, think carefully. Do you remember what happened to you? Where did you go to become like this? "
"This …"
Jiang Lanyan seriously thought about this question. But after thinking for a while, she still shook her head and said, "I'm sorry, young heroes. My head hurts when I think about this question. It's a mess and I can't remember anything."
Qin Xiao said again, "This question is very important, so you must think carefully. Even if you can't remember what happened at that time, it's better to remember the time and place. "
"This clue is very important to us, so you must think about it carefully."
"Yes, Yan 'er, these two young heroes are righteous men, and they saved your life. You must think carefully."
"If we don't get rid of this strange force, I'll be very worried. I'm afraid that the strange force will come back again." Patriarch Jiang also said to Jiang Lanyan.
Jiang Lanyan nodded and said, "I know, father. I'll try my best to think about this question."
"Maybe I'm a little confused now, so I can't remember anything. I'll take a rest and think about it slowly. Maybe I can find something."
Qin Xiao could tell that Jiang Lanyan was not lying. This matter was not something that could be figured out by simply urging her.
Therefore, it was better to be patient and wait for a while. There was no other way.
Jiang Lanyan went to take a rest first.
Brother Pure also went to check the situation. Patriarch Jiang began to entertain Qin Xiao.
Patriarch Jiang was very grateful for this matter, but also very ashamed.
At the end of his speech, Patriarch Jiang said righteously, "Young Master Qin, I, Jiang, am willing to bear all the blame."
"If you really want to blame someone, then blame me, Jiang Yi, alone. Everything was my idea. "
"I also know this matter. Even if there are thousands of reasons, I really shouldn't have done it. I did do something wrong, and I did implicate many innocent people."
"I'm willing to atone for all the sins."
"I only have one life, and I don't deserve to die. Childe Qin, please don't vent your anger on my family. They're all innocent."
Hearing Patriarch Jiang's sincere words, Qin Xiao couldn't help but feel a little softened.
He had considered whether he should kill Patriarch Jiang or not, but the desire to hide in his heart still made Qin Xiao somewhat hesitant.
After thinking about it, Qin Xiao decided to give up the idea for the time being.
Specifically, he wanted to see if Patriarch Jiang's later performance could make up for his mistakes.
Alas, there was no other way.
The source had been eradicated, and now Lan Xi-zhen still had some leftovers. Patriarch Jiang had promised that the Jiang family would do their best to deal with this matter.
There were only some small fishes and shrimps left, so there was nothing to be afraid of.
Qin Xiao also planned to stay in Lanxi City for a while. Patriarch Jiang also took the initiative to invite Qin Xiao to stay in the Jiang Mansion for a while, and let him know if there was anything he needed.
Such an act also made Qin Xiao have a better impression of Patriarch Jiang.
No matter what, this person was still considered a good person.
He loved his daughter very much, and he was also very responsible and responsible.
Even if he did something wrong, it was still pardonable, right?
Forget it, forget it, let's not think about this first.
In the following time, there was no need for Qin Xiao to do anything.
The Jiang family joined forces with the Lei family and the Gusu family to carry out a large-scale cleansing operation in the entire Lanxi City.
And this time, the Demon Eradication Mission was also very successful. In just three years, many evil creatures were found. Basically, all the evil creatures in the entire Lanxi City were wiped out.
Even if there were some fish that escaped the net, it was estimated that there were only a few.
Under such a large-scale cleansing operation, the entire Lanxi City seemed to have recovered its vitality, and became stable and peaceful again.
People didn't have to worry about evil beings anymore.
Qin Xiao and Brother Pure received a high standard of hospitality from the Jiang Mansion. They were entertained with good wine and good food every day, and they enjoyed a little bit of happiness.
They were also waiting for Jiang Lanyan's physical condition to improve a little, and then they would ask her to provide more clues so that they could trace back to the source and find the Soul Eater.
But Jiang Lanyan's memory was very damaged, and she couldn't remember anything specific at all.
So, in the end, Qin Xiao and Brother Pure could only start from where she went out to train, and then slowly narrow down the scope. Finally, they settled on a small area.
After confirming the small area, Qin Xiao and Brother Pure were ready to set off with Jiang Lanyan to search.
However, before leaving, Brother Pure suddenly stopped Qin Xiao, "Brother, don't you feel that this matter is a little strange?"
