Jin Cheng walked to Qin Jiu's side and asked in confusion, "How did you get here?"

Qin Jiu also asked curiously: "What about you? Why are you here too?"

Jin Cheng just smiled without saying anything. He gave Qin Jiu a look, indicating that since there were outsiders present, it was not appropriate to talk for the time being.

Qin Jiu and Jin Cheng took their war beasts away, released them and left together.

The moment Light and Hurricane were released, they flew up into the sky at the same time, and stopped to rest at the same time after finding a big tree.

Hurricane has a completely opposite temperament to his master. Jin Cheng is more eccentric, while Hurricane is more stable.

Hurricane was sitting on the branch, looking at Guangming who was "friendly" slapping him in the face, revealing deep helplessness.

Qin Jiu and Jin Cheng saw the two beasts getting along in a friendly manner from afar, so they withdrew their gaze and looked at each other.

Jin Cheng's golden hair was no longer scattered behind his head as usual, but was tied up and hidden in a hat.

The brim of his hat was pulled down, covering most of his face.

His clothes were very low-key, and no one would notice him even if he was in a crowd.

Qin Jiu could already guess something from his clothes, so she asked, "Are you here to see Ayi Miao?"

Jin Cheng raised his eyebrows slightly and asked instead of answering, "You too?"

Qin Jiu did not hide anything from Jin Cheng: "Yes."

Jin Cheng chuckled: "That's really a coincidence."

Because Qin Jiu had already greeted Ayi Miao, Ayi Miao arranged a car to pick him up at the station in advance.

Jin Cheng did not tell Ayi Miao the arrival time in advance, and happened to get into Qin Jiu's car.

Jin Cheng sat opposite Qin Jiu. Looking at his appearance, Qin Jiu could roughly guess why he came here.

Jin Cheng had only one reason to look for Ayi Miao, and that was about the previous poison incident.

He must have come to Blue Star secretly.

When they arrived at their destination, they saw that Ayi Miao was the same as she was the last time they saw her. The silver jewelry she was wearing jingled with every movement she made.

She greeted them with a smile: "Hello! Long time no see."

Qin Jiu responded with a smile: "Hello!"

Jin Cheng also smiled and nodded: "Hello."

Ayi Miao's eyes moved around the two of them, and finally locked onto Jin Cheng: "Do you want to go meet him?"

Jin Cheng nodded. He noticed Qin Jiu's gaze and looked at her.

Qin Jiu took the initiative to avoid suspicion: "I'll wait for you somewhere else..."

As soon as she finished speaking, Jin Cheng said, "No, come with me."

Qin Jiu didn't say anything, just looked at Jin Cheng quietly.

After a long while, she took the initiative to ask: "Aren't you afraid that I will know your secret?"

Jin Cheng asked, "Can't you guess it now?"

Qin Jiu did not hide it and admitted openly: "I guessed it."

"Let's go then."

Ayi Miao did not interfere with the conversation between the two until they confirmed it and then guided them.

Ayi Miao led them into the village. Everyone who passed by greeted Ayi Miao, and Ayi Miao responded to everyone very friendly.

As they went deeper, the originally beautiful village scenery slowly faded away, and the road ahead looked desolate and terrifying.

Qin Jiu looked back and found that they had left the village and were heading towards the back mountain.

The mountain road is rugged and overgrown with weeds, and there is only a very narrow road leading to a cave.

As Ayi Miao walked, she reminded the two to pay attention to their steps.

When I arrived at the entrance of the cave, it was pitch black inside and I couldn't see clearly what was inside.

Ayi Miao entered first, followed closely by Qin Jiu, and Jin Cheng was the last one to come in.

After getting used to the dark environment, they could see a faint red light coming from deep in the cave.

Guided by the red light, they finally arrived at the heart of the cave.

The red light was emitted from the magic circle on the ground and the chains connecting the mountain walls. The iron chains were filled with different spells, as if sealing something.

In the center of the magic circle was a man kneeling on the ground, covered in blood. His hands were chained and his upper body was forcibly hung up.

His head hung low, like a lifeless corpse.

Ayi Miao formed seals with her hands, and the magic circle on the ground emitted a more dazzling light, and the man also let out a faint scream.

Ayi Miao's voice was colder than ever: "Get up if you're not dead."

The man slowly raised his head, and the movement of his body caused the chain to make a clanging sound. On his bloodstained face, his cloudy eyes showed a look of resentment: "Humph! Don't even think about asking anything from me."

Ayi Miao sneered: "I don't need to ask you anything. The right to deal with you is no longer in my hands."

She moved to the side, revealing the two people behind her.

Jin Cheng stepped forward and took off his hat, revealing his long golden hair.

The man's pupils suddenly shrank. When he saw Jin Cheng, he showed a look of astonishment and murmured, "How is it possible! Impossible... Impossible... Why are you still alive..."

Jin Cheng's expression was slightly cold, and he sneered: "Are you surprised to see that I'm still alive?"

The man lowered his head and hid his fear in his eyes.

He's finished!

Everything is over!

Even if he doesn't die in the village now, he will die at the hands of others!

Originally he still had hope that the man might come to save him because he was still useful, but now everything is over!

He had not completed the task they assigned him and had completely become a pawn.

Jin Cheng grabbed his chin and forced him to look up and look at him.

Jin Cheng's sharp eyes seemed to see through everything. He mocked, "Let me guess what you are thinking? The mission failed, and you were caught again. You are no longer of any use to my brother. Will you die here, or..."

Jin Cheng smiled bloodthirstily: "What about dying in front of my brother?"

The man was shrouded in fear of the death threat. He shouted at the top of his lungs: "Do you still abide by federal laws? You use lynching at will. Do you know what the consequences are? You will go to jail!"

Jin Cheng watched his final struggle, slowly stood up, and looked down at him: "You said... if ordinary residents were 'accidentally' attacked by alien beasts in places without surveillance and were seriously injured or even killed, would federal law be able to regulate it?"

The man's eyes were wide open, and his ferocious face looked even more terrifying under the dark red light. He looked like a devil crawling out of hell.

"No, no, you can't do this! No! I want to become an optimized body... I am immortal..."

He kept repeating some incomprehensible words. His psychological defenses had been broken. He was crazy and couldn't speak coherently.

The seals on Ayi Miao's hands changed, and the runes on the chain glowed brighter. The man screamed in pain, looking as if he would rather die than live.

Ayi Miao said to Jin Cheng: "Our village has its own rules. He has violated our bottom line by using forbidden techniques without permission. He cannot be kept here. Do you have anything else to ask? I can make him sober up. After you finish asking, I will..."

Jin Cheng waved his hand: "I don't have anything else to ask, but there is one thing I would like to ask for your permission."

Ayi Miao: "Please speak."

Jin Cheng pointed at the man and said, "Since he has only one ending anyway, can you let me handle him?"

When the man heard Jin Cheng actually called out his name, he fixed his resentful eyes on Jin Cheng.

Before Ayi Miao expressed his opinion, Qin Jiu grabbed his arm with a frown on his face.

Jin Cheng looked at Qin Jiu, his eyes asking what she meant.

Qin Jiu shook his head and said seriously: "Don't dirty your hands."

She didn't want Jin Cheng to be charged with murder. Even if that was the fate that man deserved, the person who did it couldn't be Jin Cheng.

Jin Cheng knew what Qin Jiu was thinking. She didn’t want to be involved in the sin of killing.

But his world is full of intrigue and deception. He no longer fights or competes, but there are still people who want to kill him.

He knew that blindly giving in would not allow him to have a stable life, and if he wanted to survive he had to take the initiative.

Jin Cheng slowly pushed Qin Jiu's hand away. He shrugged and pretended to be relaxed, "Okay, I won't do anything. Ayi Miao, you can handle the affairs of your people by yourselves. I just want his body."

Ayi Miao could still satisfy Jin Cheng on this point, and she asked Jin Cheng and Qin Jiu to leave first.

After the two heard a shrill and desperate scream outside the cave, everything returned to silence.

Ayi Miao walked out of the cave slowly. Qin Jiu did not see any blood on her body. He guessed that Ayi Miao had done something with the magic circle on the ground.

Ayi Miao: "I have already dealt with it according to our clan rules. I will arrange for it to be sent to your place after I have dealt with it."

Jin Cheng nodded: "Thank you."

They returned the same way. Jin Cheng's expression became less cold and he started to talk more: "What was that magic circle just now?"

Ayi Miao: "That is a tradition of our tribe. Anyone who breaks the tribe rules will be imprisoned in the Bone Erosion Formation, and then his life or death will be decided based on the situation. The person in the Bone Erosion Formation will suffer endless pain every moment, like being eaten by thousands of ants. If it is confirmed that the sin committed by the other party is unforgivable, this formation will be used to make him die in pain."

This was the first time Jin Cheng heard about these secret techniques and he couldn't help but start chatting with Ayi Miao.

Qin Jiu was listening to their conversation silently at the side, when suddenly two sharp eagle cries were heard from the mountains.

Qin Jiu and Jin Cheng reacted immediately and looked in the direction where the sound came from at the same time.

The two saw the figures of Guangming and Hurricane swooping towards a certain place. They looked at each other and saw a solemn look in each other's eyes.

The two turned around at the same time and ran deeper into the mountains.

A Yi Miao was stunned for a moment behind them, then started running too.

She asked loudly, "What's going on?"

There was a light under Qin Jiu's eyes, and a wormhole appeared in her eyes, from which alien beasts emerged one after another.

In addition to being able to give commands to war beasts, the most important thing about the beast taming ability is that it can directly share the five senses with the war beasts.

Qin Jiu discovered this when he fought side by side with Bai Xue.

She was in the hurricane's perspective, and the situation ahead of the hurricane was not optimistic.

Qin Jiu said: "There is a wormhole, and alien beasts are born inside it."

Upon hearing this, Ayi Miao said in disbelief: "Wormhole? We don't have wormholes here..."

Qin Jiu: "It looks like it's newly generated. Hurry up and notify the Beast Taming Army."

Ayi Miao did not dare to delay and immediately found her tribesmen on the terminal and asked them to notify the Beast Taming Army and bring them in.

Qin Jiu switched targets and felt the light.

Being able to empathize with the light is a very magical thing. Even though it was pitch black in front of her, she could "see" what was happening in front of her.

There were a few scattered dark red spots of light in the pitch-black screen. Qin Jiu almost subconsciously recognized that they were alien beasts, and the stronger the alien beast, the stronger the light emitted by it.

And beside "myself", there is a point of starlight emitting sapphire-blue light.

Qin Jiu had no doubt that it was a hurricane.

Qin Jiu looked towards the wormhole again, his expression becoming even more solemn.

If the alien beast is compared to a starlight, then the wormhole as a whole looks like a huge incandescent lamp, the energy inside cannot be suppressed and radiates from all sides.

The light can see the strength of life forms, and this wormhole seems to have infinite vitality...

Qin Jiu gave Guangming an order to cooperate with Hurricane in the reconnaissance and stop the first batch of alien beasts in the mountains first and never let them leave.

The distance between Qin Jiu and his companions and the war beasts was actually not very far. They reached the vicinity of the wormhole after running a few steps.

They slowed down their pace at the same time, fearing that the noise would attract attacks from the alien beasts.

Qin Jiu's mind moved slightly, and a black sword appeared in his hand.

That was the weapon Wang Ling gave her, and today was its first appearance on the battlefield.

Qin Jiu watched Jin Cheng pull out a gun from his waist that was specially used to deal with alien beasts, and said to him, "We will divide the work and we must not let them leave before the beast control army arrives."

Jin Cheng had the same idea as her. He nodded heavily and said, "Be careful."

Qin Jiu: "You too."

Behind them is the Ayi Miao village, which is full of simple people.

If the alien beasts were not stopped and allowed to enter the village, there would be a huge loss of life.

As a reserve player of the Beast Taming Army, Jin Cheng would not stand by and watch the beast tide invade the village!

The light was not suitable for fighting, so Qin Jiu let it hover in the sky to guide others.

The hurricane was controlled by Jin Cheng. When it saw the alien beast rushing forward, the hurricane went straight to its eyes.

And Jin Cheng fired a bullet at the alien beast when the hurricane was dealing with them.

Qin Jiu heard the gunshots, glanced at Jin Cheng, and then joined the battlefield himself.

She stepped into the territory marked out by the alien beasts, and they all looked at her.

With a weapon on him this time, Qin Jiu became much braver.

One of the leading alien beasts was looking at Qin Jiu in a alert posture, and a low growl came from its mouth, as if calling its companions.

Can't let it call for help!

Qin Jiu's pupils suddenly shrank, and he made a quick decision. He raised the black sword and slashed its neck before it could summon other alien beasts.

Qin Jiu was shocked. This sword could indeed cut through iron like mud. It was satisfactory in every aspect!

More alien beasts appeared beside Qin Jiu. Qin Jiu used his fighting skills to deal with nearly ten alien beasts in a few moves.

However, she knew that the alien beasts she was dealing with now were only low-level ones, and higher-level ones had not yet appeared, so she could not take it lightly.

She was lucky, as the beasts that surrounded her were all low-level alien beasts, so Qin Jiu had no difficulty dealing with them. Her performance was even better than Jin Cheng, who had both weapons and war beasts.

She killed another alien beast, and this side became empty, so she decided to go help Jin Cheng.

Just as she was about to turn around, she heard Jin Cheng's urgent voice shouting, "Qin Jiu, be careful!"
