Tatsumi suppressed his nausea, looked at the broken bodies, and said tremblingly: "Mr. Xiao Zhen, we are just intruding, there is no need to kill anyone!"

Xiao Zhen patted the boy's shoulder and said with a dark smile, "Let's go, I'll take you to see something."

The two of them soon arrived outside a large warehouse. Xiao Zhen looked at the door that had not been locked yet and gently pushed Tatsumi from behind.

"Go and take a look. Your friends are in there. It's not too late. Both of them are still alive."

Sensing that something was wrong, Tatsumi quickly rushed to the door and pushed open the door, which was not closed to begin with.

A scene that made one's hair stand on end appeared before one's eyes. There were all kinds of corpses with miserable deaths, and they looked not much better than the body parts one had seen before.

"Oh, what a great reaction. After adding the cold and heat poisons, I didn't expect it to cause the skin to ulcerate so quickly. I must record this."

Some perverted voices were heard, and Tatsumi saw a woman recording something in front of a cell. The ground was filled with various bottles and jars. His intuition told him that what was inside must not be good things.

A familiar low growl of pain came to his ears, and Tatsumi quickly determined that the other party was one of his lost companions.

"It's Iyeas' voice, he's also in this place!"

Rushing over following the sound, Tatsumi pushed the sick woman away and put his head into the cell. He saw that the person struggling in agony was none other than his good friend Iyeas from the same village.

The woman reacted and realized that there was an intruder here. Although he looked like a teenager, he had a sword on his back. He was most likely a martial artist. This was definitely not something a pampered noble lady like her could handle.

The woman moved quietly, preparing to escape from the warehouse first, and then ask the guards at home to capture the intruder.

Xiao Zhen was no mere decoration. He only used a trace of his fighting spirit to knock this vicious woman unconscious.

It’s not that someone is soft-hearted, but compared to him, the other people in the warehouse probably want to kill this woman more, so he simply doesn’t want to dirty his hands.

Tatsumi used the sword on his back to break open the prison door. Just as he was about to go forward to check on his friend, he was stopped by the other party.

"Don't come over here, Tatsumi. I... that woman has injected many kinds of viruses into my body, some of which... may be contagious, so stay away. And... Sayu, she's over there!"

Tatsumi followed the direction pointed by Iyeas and saw a hanging figure not far away.

The long, smooth black hair and the pink butterfly hairpin all originally belonged to the girl who always had a smile on her face.

But now... he was naked, covered in bruises and scars, and didn't even make a sound. He might have already...

After putting Sayu down, Tatsumi discovered that she was still breathing weakly, and her appearance was so elusive that she could die at any moment.

Iyeas also crawled out of the cell at this time. He looked equally miserable. There were countless viruses in his body, and he would groan in pain from time to time.

"Tatsumi, how is Sayu?"

Tears fell to the ground uncontrollably, Tatsumi said nothing. He couldn't help Iyas get rid of his pain, nor could he save Sayu who was on the verge of death.

A coat was covered on Shayou, and a soft green light emanated from Xiao Zhen's hands. The wood-attributed fighting spirit full of vitality began to nourish the girl's broken body.

"Her condition is worse than I thought, but it's not like there's no hope for her to survive, it's just a little troublesome."

Hearing that their companion still had hope of treatment, Tatsumi and Iyeas looked at Xiao Zhen at the same time.

"thump!"

Tatsumi knelt on the ground and said in a very serious tone: "Mr. Xiao Zhen, I know you are a very powerful person. If you can save my companion, I will do anything you ask me to do in the future. Even this life, you can take it at any time, please!"

Iyeas also looked at Xiao Zhen with pleading eyes. He was actually feeling very guilty. When he was tricked into coming in by the woman named Arya, Shayou clearly noticed something suspicious, but he didn't take it seriously at the time, which eventually led to the tragedy today.

If Tatsumi had not arrived in time today, it would not be long before he and Sayu would become the same as the other corpses in the warehouse.

Xiao Zhen said calmly: "I can save both of them, but from now on, the lives of the three of you will belong to me, is that okay?"

Tatsumi agreed readily. He would never watch his companions die.

Iyeas had not expected that he would have a share. As long as he could continue to live, it didn't seem to matter who he worked for.

Xiao Zhen continued to use his wood-attribute Dou Qi to warm the girl's body. His soul power sensed the movement outside and reminded Tatsumi by the way.

"The bodies of the guards we killed earlier should have been found, and someone is approaching the warehouse. Tatsumi, go and deal with them."

Nodding, Tatsumi walked out of the warehouse with firm steps and saw several people running towards him.

Without any hesitation, he rushed out with the long sword in his hand. Tatsumi was no longer timid as before. His superb swordsmanship allowed him to face multiple enemies at the same time without being at a disadvantage.

The guards did not expect an attacker to suddenly rush out, and were caught off guard at first. The unlucky guy walking in front was killed by a sword.

Tatsumi's eyes were cold, and he gritted his teeth as he said, "You are also accomplices in harming my companions. I will absolutely...never let you go!"

The noise spread farther and farther, the dark night was disturbed by the sound of fighting, and more people began to gather here.

While Xiao Zhen was helping Shayou treat her wounds, he also fed a pill to the young man next to him who was groaning in pain from time to time.

Iyeas felt the heat surging in his body, and soon the pain and itching began to disappear.

“This… is truly amazing.”

Xiao Zhen is an alchemist after all. Those viruses may be very troublesome to the people in this world, but to him, they are just a fifth-grade detoxification pill.

Iyeas, feeling a little better, moved his ears and heard the increasingly intense sound of swords clashing outside. He couldn't help but worry about the safety of his good brother.

"Go out and help. Although you are in a weak state now, you should have no problem dealing with one or two ordinary guards."

Iyeas nodded respectfully and said, "Then I'll leave Sayu in my hands, sir. I'll go help Tatsumi."

After the boy ran out to help, Xiao Zhen also fed Shayou a pill.

"There really is a dark side to this country, don't you think?"

Of course, Xiao Zhen was not talking to the unconscious Shayou. He just patted the little white cat on his shoulder with one hand.

With the clever use of soul power, the imperial weapon that could transform was temporarily ineffective, and the little white cat returned to its original form.

Xiao Zhen felt a soft feeling on his head. Lying on his shoulder at this moment was a beautiful girl with long hair and headphones.

Chelsea looked at her palm, she stepped back a few steps, and said playfully: "Ah, how did I suddenly become a girl? Is this enough for you, Master? Meow!"

Xiao Zhen turned around and gave her an unfathomable look. Chelsi could only curl her lips and confess honestly:

"In reply to your Excellency, I am a killer affiliated with the Revolutionary Army, my name is Chelsea."

"You are so honest. Just stand aside and I will deal with your matter later."

Although now seemed like a good opportunity to escape, Chelsea didn't dare to make any other moves.

Xiao Zhen stroked the last wound on Shayou's body with his palm, and he almost took all the advantage.

But after all, it was to save people, and the girl had been hanging for so long that she had been seen naked by everyone, so she probably wouldn't mind having him around.

It may also be because the one who tortured the girl was that perverted young lady. Although her clothes were stripped off, Sayu did not suffer any other violations, which was a blessing in disguise.
