Chapter 88: Let Her Go

Right at this tense moment, Ji Tiantian widened her watery eyes, staring intently at Jiang Xianchuan with a face full of confusion, her lips trembling slightly as she asked, “Brother, why do you have to kill them? Is there really no way to coexist peacefully with them?” Her voice was clear and carried a hint of childishness, as if she didn’t yet understand the cruelty and ruthlessness of this world.

Hearing his sister’s innocent question, Jiang Xianchuan felt a hint of impatience in his heart, but he knew he had to make Ji Tiantian recognize reality.

So, he took a deep breath and slowly began to explain, “Tiantian, these hateful guys destroyed the camp we depend on for survival, cruelly murdered many of our close companions, and not only that, but their evil deeds also caused countless innocent people to lose their lives. More importantly, they have already posed a serious threat to our safety. If we don’t get rid of them, I’m afraid the next ones to suffer will be us.”

However, no matter how hard Jiang Xianchuan tried to persuade her, Ji Tiantian still couldn’t accept this reality. She shook her head desperately, “No! Brother, please don’t kill them!” she cried loudly, tears streaming down her cheeks like a burst dam.

Looking at Ji Tiantian’s stubborn and distressing appearance, he knew he couldn’t afford to be soft-hearted at this moment, otherwise it would bring more unpredictable consequences. Therefore, he could only harden his heart and coldly said, “There is no room for discussion on this matter.”

Jiang Xianchuan’s indifferent and resolute attitude completely shattered Ji Tiantian’s heart. She couldn’t believe that the brother who had always loved her would become so unfamiliar. “I hate you!” Along with a heart-wrenching scream, Ji Tiantian turned and ran away, her petite figure quickly disappearing into the vast night.

Lin Pianyue suddenly stood up, her eyes anxiously watching the receding figure, her feet involuntarily moving forward, as if wanting to catch up. However, at this moment, Jiang Xianchuan, who had been silent all along, frowned slightly and said softly, “No need, let her go.” His voice, though not loud, carried an unquestionable firmness.

To be honest, Jiang Xianchuan had always had no patience for stupid people, and those who were always confused and couldn’t tell right from wrong in the face of things were even more abhorrent to him. And the so-called overflowing holy mother types were also objects he loathed. Unfortunately, Ji Tiantian perfectly stepped on all his landmines.

“But… can she really manage alone? Won’t she encounter danger?” Lin Pianyue’s face still wore a worried expression, her gaze fixed on the direction Ji Tiantian left in, seemingly wanting to try again. But when she turned her head and saw Jiang Xianchuan’s resolute expression, she finally bit her lip and didn’t insist anymore.

Afterwards, several people searched and finally found a relatively safe place. They worked together to set up the tent, and then each of them went into the tent to rest. The night gradually deepened, and everything was silent, with only the occasional sound of wind and the calls of unknown animals in the distance breaking the tranquility.

In his sleep, Jiang Xianchuan fell into a bloody and cruel illusion. A group of ability users surged towards him like a tide, each with a fierce look on their faces, and the weapons in their hands, shimmering with strange light, were chilling. However, facing this surging enemy, Jiang Xianchuan was fearless. He moved nimbly through the crowd, and each attack was incredibly precise, instantly taking a life.

Some of the ability users defeated by him began to cry out their innocence, but Jiang Xianchuan at this time had already been blinded by the killing and couldn’t hear any pleas for mercy. Like a cold and ruthless god of death, he reaped one fresh life after another between his hands, until the whole world was stained red with blood.

Afterwards, Jiang Xianchuan slowly opened his eyes and woke up from his dream. He gently lifted the tent flap and stepped out. The night breeze gently brushed his face, bringing a trace of coolness. He raised his head, looking at the bright moon hanging in the night sky like a silver plate, and couldn’t help but be attracted by the beautiful scene. So, he simply sat on the soft grass, quietly admiring the bright moon hanging in the sky.

Before long, a figure quietly walked to his side and slowly sat down. It was Li Lingyu. He asked softly, “What’s wrong? Can’t sleep?” Jiang Xianchuan shook his head slightly, his eyes still fixed on the bright moon, and muttered to himself, “I was wondering… was I too heartless to Tiantian today? She’s still so young after all.”

Hearing this, Li Lingyu reached out and gently hugged Jiang Xianchuan in his warm embrace, saying comfortingly, “No matter what decision you make, right or wrong, I will always support you.”

Hearing these words, the corners of Jiang Xianchuan’s mouth curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile, and then he said jokingly, “What if one day I get tired of you and find a mistress?” As soon as he finished speaking, Li Lingyu’s originally gentle gaze instantly darkened, as if hiding endless storms. But soon, he regained his composure, only answering firmly, “Then I will kill him without hesitation.”

Hearing such resolute words, Jiang Xianchuan couldn’t help but laugh out loud, saying as he laughed, “Hahahaha, you really are ruthless!”

Li Lingyu at this time did not laugh along with him, but stared at Jiang Xianchuan’s bright smile, gradually falling into contemplation, because what he had just said was indeed the most sincere thought in the depths of his heart. If that kind of thing really happened, he would never be soft-hearted, even if it meant paying a huge price.

“Don’t worry, there will never be such a day. If one day I really don’t like you anymore, I will definitely tell you honestly, and I will never go behind your back to find any mistresses,” Jiang Xianchuan said firmly, looking at the other party with certainty.

At this time, Li Lingyu lowered his head slightly and murmured softly, “Can’t not like me.”

Jiang Xianchuan asked with some confusion, “Why?” Li Lingyu raised his head, looking deeply into Jiang Xianchuan’s eyes, and slowly said, “Because you are my wife.” However, Jiang Xianchuan shook his head, retorting, “But, if I don’t like you anymore, then I won’t be.”

Hearing these words, Li Lingyu’s eyes suddenly became gloomy, and he gritted his teeth and said fiercely, “Then I’ll break your legs, so you won’t be able to find anyone else, and you can only be my wife forever.” These words sounded extremely dark and terrifying, making one shudder.

However, Jiang Xianchuan was not frightened, but instead found the young man in front of him cute and funny. He stepped forward, gently kissed Li Lingyu’s cheek, and said with a smile, “Okay, okay, I’ll listen to you.” For a moment, a strong sense of love and sweetness filled the air between the two.
