Let the Villain Go

Chapter 24

Chapter 24

General Jiang leaped from the top of the tree, raised his hand to break the ice icicles, and took out the magical crystal of the fifth-order demon without hesitation.

The two young saints who were saved by Chu Qianxun and others were members of the Blizzard Mercenary Corps. The two hurried to the head of their regiment and bowed their heads and said boss.

Blizzard was a mercenary team built by General Jiang, a top ice ability-user. Most of the members were young and strong like this leader, and many of them were even young children.

Although the leader was very young, his temper was not very good. He was bloodthirsty and irritable, and fought without principle. There was no one in the base who dared to provoke him casually. The teenager who grew up in the wasteland era first learned the jungle rules of strong hunts weak for food and had no conception of right and wrong. Compared with adults, they abandoned the public order and good customs of the golden age more thoroughly. They solved all problems with fists.

You all are just wastes! At the moment, General Jiang was scolding two team members, You could lose your life to even a fifth-order blunt walker. Youre just spoiling my reputation.

He scolded without any scruples, and the two young team members didnt dare to say anything. They could only promise to train more with their heads down.

General Jiang turned his face, glanced at Chu Qianxun, sneered, and threw the crystal core in his hand to her.

Thank you, our Blizzard people never owe others favors.

For General Jiang, this woman who was covered with fire and blackened wasnt worth mentioning. But the brutal force that this person used and the precise grasp of the timing when using the blade surprised him slightly.

In General Jiangs mind, right and wrong had no meaning. The strong and the hard-working talents deserved more attention.

Before turning to leave, he wanted to ask the persons name, but then he took the matter away from his heart.

As long as such a person could survive, sooner or later, she would become a strong person and enter his eyes again.

It wouldnt be too late to ask her name.

All the people present looked at Chu Qianxun with envious eyes. That was a fifth-order crystal, which should have been distributed to all team members who contributed in this battle. But when the Blizzards leader spoke, no one dared to say more about it.

She was a little dazed at the moment,

In front of her, General Jiang was so arrogant and had a rebellious look.

He was the boy who lived arrogantly and had died at the beginning of the advent of the demons in her memory in another world.

She witnessed General Jiangs death with her own eyes. But now he was alive in front of her. Some people who had lived to the end and even become friends with her were unknown to her in this world. She hadnt even heard their names.

Ye Peitian, who was saved in that world, was still sinking into the abyss of despair in this one.

The long-lasting war was finally over.

After a fierce battle, Huan Shengjie, the prince of the Spring City destroyed the ninth-order demon but was seriously injured. He barely supported his body and took out the crystal from the demons cervical spine.

After the Egersis fell, the demon Corps summoned by it lost its command and became independent. They were quickly destroyed by the high-level saints.

The companions who had fought hard had cheered and celebrated.

But Huan Shengjie frowned. When the battle was fiercest, the Egersis issued a powerful sonic attack. The saints belonging to the Melee Department who faced the demon directly, had a headache and bleeding ears. For a moment, he vaguely saw a yellow sand palm condense in the air and grabbed the demon. Huan Shengjie seized the passing moment and hit the demon.

(melee-close combat)

At this moment, Huan Shengjie looked at a ray of yellow sand scattered on the ground. This was the sand ability. Near the spring city, who was this super master who could screw the neck of a ninth-order demon with one hand? 

Such a level could only be established by the yellow sand Emperor Ye Peitian.

He helped him.

Huan Shengjie was already in the eighth-order. In order to obtain the magical crystal of the ninth-order Egersis, he devoted all his efforts and spent a lot of money. He got the famous Blizzard mercenary regiment General Jiang and several powerful mercenaries. The team participated in the battle.

But if it wasnt for the mysterious person who helped him, the outcome of this battle would still be unknown.

Chu Qianxun stayed with several members of her team. Captain Wang Dazhi received the remuneration and food and was distributing them one by one.

Qianxun, whats wrong with you recently? What you did just now was so risky. 

Gao Yan was terrified of the fighting that had just happened. She took out the emergency medicine she carried with her and helped Chu Qianxun apply the medicine.

Chu Qianxun gritted her teeth. Her shoulders and arms were burned in many places. A large blister appeared, and some of the skin began to fall off in pieces, causing severe pain.

Do it lightly, dead woman. Youre hurting me.

Now you know what pain is, what happened during the fight? Dont fight as if you want to die.

I want to rush through the fifth order, Chu Qianxun said.

Fifth order? Whats so good about the fifth order? Gao Yan was slightly surprised. In the past, Chu Qianxun didnt have such high ambition. Most of the demon hunters were hiding at the end of the team like her and living a decent life.

You have to think about it. How many people died at the fourth-order pass to the fifth-order. Su Ying next door turned into a demon, do you remember? I had to cut her head.

Fourth order was a hurdle for all saints to upgrade. After crossing Tier 4, the strength had a qualitative leap. However, many saints failed to control themselves during the upgrade process with the fifth-order magic crystal, but were eroded by the magic crystal and eventually became a man-eating demon. Over time, many saints chose to stop at the fourth order, and no longer continued to pursue strength.

Sister Yan, I dont want to be so weak. I really hope I can be stronger, Chu Qianxun lowered her eyes. She bit her teeth and stopped crying.

She once saw herself in another world, where she stood on top of all the strong people. At that peak, the scenery was completely different from her eyes.

After she had seen such a scenery, she was not willing to be in such a weak state. She hoped that she could be stronger and could arbitrarily control her life and be with her friends. She wanted to live the days how she thought.

She wanted to see the world in the eyes of the powerful people again, instead of living a life where they had to struggle to barely eat a stomach full and walk dead.

The two sat on the grass to rest. The comrades were walking back and forth. Some were seriously injured and were getting bandaged. Some were busy distributing food and medicine.

In any case, this battle ended faster than expected. Not only did they win, but also didnt suffer heavy casualties.

The flames of the demon had all been extinguished, the upper ice edge of the ground had not yet completely melted. The snow had been vaporized by the hot air below the ground to dissipate into a lot of smoke.

The saints around were whispering about the young leader of the Blizzard Mercenary Corps.

That man is really too young. He doesnt even look twenty years old.

I heard that he is particularly arrogant. As long as one is a member of Blizzard, no one could bully them.

Good, I also want to be a member of Blizzard. He came over from the main battlefield purposely, just to save the two underlings under him.

Forget it. Dont look at his youth. His temper is particularly irritable. He doesnt even blink when killing someone. The one who works under him does not dare to take things lightly. They either get scolded or face a fight. You may not be able to bear the change yet.

Im not afraid. As long as Im well-paid, and get enough to eat with someone guarding when hunting demons, Im willing.

The girls were very interested in the powerful and arrogant young leader, and they kept talking about him.

Chu Qianxuns eyes stayed on the cluster of yellow sand on the ground.

Mixed in the melted snow water and the dark smoke, the thin gravel could hardly attract anyones attention. Chu Qianxun wondered if she had an illusion in the fierce battle.

Until she stared at it for a long time, the thin layer of gravel seemed to have suddenly disappeared into the ground together.

Chu Qianxun stood up instantly.

Surrounded by hustle and bustle of people carrying arms, she walked around.

She couldnt really find the figure she wanted to see.

The saint Lin Sheng, who had just thrown Chu Qianxun high on the battlefield, came over.

Lin Sheng had a strong figure, thick eyebrows and big eyes. He smiled with a little simple and kind lopl, which gave people a reliable and safe feeling. In the tube building where they lived, he had already broken through the fourth level of strength, and was also regarded as a single man who was more popular with women.

Qianxun, you were scalded. I have a scald ointment with me, with a little shyness, he handed over a jar of medicine.

Thank you, Brother Lin, but Sister Yan has already given me medicine. Its no big deal. Dont waste it, Chu Qianxun smiled but refused.
