Chapter 253: 【206】For the sake of the realm, what does it matter if the Lord sacrifices some bitter looks (asking for double monthly votes)_1



Brother Bi turned around, looking puzzled. “What, you know him?”

Zhou Ye gave a forced smile. “How could I possibly know such a big shot.”

“Then why the surprise?” Brother Bi said irritably.

Zhou Ye hurried to explain, “It’s just that I’ve heard a lot about him lately; seems like he got rich all of a sudden. A lot of people on the street give him face. Didn’t he just take over the Ma Gang a while ago? So it’s normal for Xiong Suxin to hold a grudge against him, but none of these kidnapped people have anything to do with Cai Weiqian.”

Brother Bi was also puzzled, but he still passed the information on to Pei Jinye.

Pei Jinye was speechless.

He was the instigator of this whole affair—of course he knew how the Ma Gang vanished.

However, as Zhou Ye said, this matter was supposed to be blamed on the Black Mountain Association. Why were the three of them making such a big deal out of it?

He couldn’t care less about the reasons behind.

The mission was what mattered.

Zhou Ye looked doubtfully at Brother Bi, “How come the information on thirteen high school students still lacks two people’s whereabouts?”

Brother Bi frowned upon hearing this.

Started calling the people from the Night Patrol Department.

The result was that they were still confirming.

Meanwhile, Pei Jinye had already quietly infiltrated the factory through the ventilation duct, a straight seventeen meters away from the warehouse.

But at this moment, a layer of fog enveloped the area.

Encased within the Mech Body, he clicked the eyepiece into place, and the world in front of him seemed to be covered by a layer of green shadow—then through the walls, he saw more than a dozen heat signatures.

“Fifteen… sixteen… seventeen, seventeen? Why are there seventeen people?”

Pei Jinye narrowed his eyes.

Something wasn’t right.

According to the report provided by the Night Patrol Department, three robbers plus thirteen hostages—that should make sixteen people in total.

[The headcount is wrong. 17 people.] (Message sent successfully)

Pei Jinye approached cautiously without a word.

Under the surveillance equipment, he couldn’t use any other Transcendent abilities—methodically moving closer.

This wasn’t the time to be playing hero. All he needed to do was rescue the hostages and conveniently kill that woman to end the trouble.

“Brother Bi, Jinye sent a message saying the headcount is off,” Zhou Ye reported immediately.

Brother Bi’s expression suddenly turned grave, glaring fiercely at the Night Patrol Department person, “Have you gotten it right or not?”

“Sixteen people, I’m sure of it! Could it be your people who got it wrong?” the other party retorted.

“Absolutely impossible!” Brother Bi vehemently denied it!

“Bang!”

However, before Pei Jinye could get closer, the large warehouse doors suddenly blew apart from the middle.

A figure screamed as they were flung out.

And rolled to a stop at Pei Jinye’s feet.

They looked at each other.

Pei Jinye: “…”

He delivered a merciless kick.

Knocking the person out cold immediately.

He quickly pressed the communicator. “There’s a fight breaking out inside. I don’t know the details. I’m heading in.”

“Be very careful…”

“I’ll escort the hostages out first.”

Pei Jinye made a decisive move to rush inside. Suddenly, a dagger came stabbing towards him; he raised his arm and blocked it without any hesitation and his Iron Fist directly pounded against the opponent.

The other party let out a pitiful scream as flames erupted from their body.

Before the flames could spread,

Pei Jinye’s Titanium Knife pierced right through the other person’s neck.

With a “puchi” sound, it was decidedly crisp.

Before the mist could clear, he quickly threw the body through a side door.

He strode forward.

“I am from the Federation rescue force, all hostages move towards the window and crouch down, don’t move!”

There was still some panic among the crowd.

Suddenly, a chubby boy trembled in a corner, “Brother Ye, is that you, Brother Ye?”

“???”

Pei Jinye had no time for him.

Because he was looking for Xiong Suxin.

But to his surprise, a towering brawny woman was fighting Bare-handed Fight with her; the two were evenly matched.

Pei Jinye frowned, noting a young woman in a long dress standing alone.

He approached with the Titanium Alloy Knife in hand.

“Young lady, do you know them?”

The young woman turned and looked over. Her face was void of color, and she struggled to say, “Please help… Sister Kui, I can hardly hold on.”

“My lord!” the brawny woman felt something, turned her head and exclaimed.

Xiong Suxin’s Butterfly Knife hit her arms accurately, but what surprised her was that instead of blood, black vapor started seeping out.

“You are…” Xiong Suxin’s eyes widened in disbelief, “You are a Soul General!”

The brawny woman stepped back and quickly retreated back into the young lady’s brow.

The young lady staggered, nearly losing her balance.

The next second.

Before Xiong Suxin could approach, a large hand covered her face, smacking her so hard that she spun 360 degrees mid-air.

This scene made the young lady’s, whose eyes were gawking before she fainted, incredibly round.

In the shadows, a voice quietly drifted into her ear… “My lord, this man’s genes give me a strong sensation… can you find a way to acquire his bloodline? If the little lord…”

The young lady blushed and fainted on the spot.

“…”

The device targeted Xiong Suxin’s face, entering her information.

Pei Jinye’s voice was cold as he announced, “Xiong Suxin, you are suspected of violating Federation law Article 12… You are hereby under arrest.”

Suddenly, for some unknown reason, Xiong Suxin struggled free.

The Butterfly Knife in her hand stabbed firmly into the steel plate in front of Pei Jinye’s chest.

Xiong Suxin was stunned.

Because her knife got stuck.

At the same time, Pei Jinye’s cold voice came through, “According to Operation Protocol Article 32, if the enemy resists desperately in a corner, on-the-spot execution is permitted.”

Suddenly, a hand pressed down on Xiong Suxin’s head again, and the enormous force was something she couldn’t resist at all.

The immense strength pulled up her hair and smashed her head violently against the wall.

With a thunderous boom.

The wall was smashed through, and two figures rushed in, with a series of clanging sounds that made everyone’s skin crawl.

Soon, a group of people rushed in.

Brother Bi and Zhou Ye let out a sigh of relief when they saw that Pei Jinye was unharmed.

“Good to see you’re alright.”

Pei Jinye gestured to the corpse beside him, “It’s a pity, I wanted to capture this one alive, but she reacted too violently.”

As he spoke, two Butterfly Knives were still embedded in his mech body, making Brother Bi and Zhou Ye tremble with anxiety, and they quickly said, “Are you injured? Go to the car and get checked out.”

Someone from the Night Patrol Department approached and said, “Predecessor, we need to take a statement.”

“Take a statement my ass, if you want to know anything, come find us at the base. My brother is injured! Get out of the way!” Brother Bi showed no courtesy whatsoever.

The other party could only reluctantly let them pass.

In the car.

Zhou Ye was holding a flashlight, and Pei Jinye gently patted the front of his body, “I’m not injured, just missed by that much.”

“Just a few millimeters, that was really too close. That woman’s sword technique was stubborn, both strikes were lethal. If you had been stabbed and couldn’t replace the mechanical heart in time, you would definitely have been a goner,” Zhou Ye said with his face pale, turning to ask, “Brother Bi, does this count as Second Class Merit for Jinye this time?”

Brother Bi, driving, answered, “Of course it counts! Damn it, whoever says it doesn’t, go settle it with them!”

Zhou Ye also patted the seat, saying, “Absolutely, it must count!”

Pei Jinye just smiled.

His phone vibrated.

The little chubby guy from his middle school desk-mate sent a message.

[Brother Ye, you won’t believe it, but I just got kidnapped!]

The chubby guy then immediately sent another message: [You’ll believe it even less, but the guy who rescued me sounds almost exactly like you. I even mistook him for you and called out your name, but he didn’t react.]

The chubby guy’s third text: [To celebrate that I escaped from a huge disaster, I’m hosting a barbecue at the kebab shop next to the convenience store opposite the school tonight. Are you coming? Wang Jing, Sun Ruofan, and the others will be there.]

Pei Jinye was full of question marks.

Since when had the chubby guy become so close to them?

Shaking his head.

After replying to the message, he raised his head and curiously asked, “By the way, Brother Bi, do we have a list of the hostages? Is there a young girl… a Transcendent, maybe?”

“A Transcendent?”

Brother Bi and Zhou Ye looked at each other, perplexed.

“Don’t know about that.”

The little chubby guy looked at his phone disappointedly, gesturing, “I really wasn’t lying to you two heroines, right? It really wasn’t Brother Ye. He’s a busy man; how could he have time to save the world?”

Wang Jing pursed her lips and said nothing.

Sun Ruofan, on the other hand, didn’t agree, “Student Pei is the most dedicated boy I’ve ever met.”

Seeing this, Wang Jing felt a bit jealous, “You know him that well?”

Sun Ruofan bashfully shook her head, “Not really, just chatted a few times in private.”

Listening to this, Wang Jing almost passed out in frustration.

She had invited Pei Jinye out several times, and that heartbreaker never once agreed.

Seeing the atmosphere turn sour, the chubby Wang quickly changed the subject, “By the way, who was that sister earlier?”

“Are you talking about Sister Nanhan?” As Sun Ruofan said this, she suddenly waved, “Sister Nanhan, over here.”

The young woman walked up, her complexion somewhat pale, “Have you all contacted your families?”

“We have.”

Seeing this, Jiang Nanhan nodded, and then, as if she remembered something, the voice of Sister Kui echoed in her mind.

“My Lord, even if it doesn’t come to that step, making that connection wouldn’t be a bad thing.”

Jiang Nanhan curled the corners of her mouth, as if casually asking, “What happened to the person who just saved us?”

All three shook their heads in confusion, “Don’t know.”

“…”

At the Investigation Team’s Base.

In the team leader’s office.

“Looking at you like this, have you had any realizations?” Lin Xiawei calmly asked.

Pei Jinye pondered for a moment before nodding, “I used to think that minor missions were just a waste of time, but now I realize they actually allow me to directly experience the full spectrum of life.”

Lin Xiawei looked at him seriously, “You, like this…”

“Hmm, Sister, what are you saying?” Pei Jinye didn’t hear her clearly and looked at her puzzled.

“It’s nothing. Have you practiced your swordsmanship recently? Go practice. Also, the Blood Felling Technique; once you advance to Organ Refining, I will teach you the next technique.”

Lin Xiawei’s words reinvigorated Pei Jinye.

However, he carefully asked, “By the way, Sister, how long did it take for those seniors to pass through Blood Refining?”

“That’s hard to say…” Lin Xiawei shook her head, “The eldest senior brother started martial arts at the age of thirty, took three days to pass through the Lower Three Realm, seven days through the Middle Three Realm… The second senior brother, although he started practicing swordsmanship at a young age, took eighteen years to pass through the Lower Three Realm. Last year I saw him, he was still in Blood Refining… The third senior brother is still in the Lower Three Realm now; he doesn’t like the hardship of martial arts training.”

Pei Jinye opened his mouth.

Realizing his question was practically answered in vain.

He stretched his mouth awkwardly and then took his leave.

Once the door closed, Lin Xiawei’s lips finally showed a delayed smile.

“He’s really quite adorable like that.”
