What She Qi said was exactly what Chi Jiao was worried about.
A person’s body could only hold one soul. Xu Ye’s body now had two souls, and it would definitely affect his body over time.
Chi Jiao couldn’t be careless regardless of whether She Qi was just exaggerating.
“So, how can we take out the Heart of Time?” Chi Jiao stared at him.
She Qi’s lips curled into an extremely evil smile as he teased her. “Kill Lu Xian and take out the stone. Between her and Xu Ye, you can only choose one.”
Just as he finished speaking, Quan Jue extended one hand and his aura swept out, pressing heavily on him.
She Qi grunted and looked up at him indignantly. With a dull thud, his body was pressed against the ground by the pressure unleashed by Quan Jue.
“Nonsense. That ancient book that you tore apart recorded how to take out the Heart of Time without hurting my mother!” Quan Jue gritted his teeth.
If he wasn’t sure that She Qi knew the method, Quan Jue wouldn’t have wasted his breath on him.
There must be a way to ensure Xu Ye and his mother’s safety. It was just that She Qi was unwilling to reveal it!
She Qi’s face was pressed against the ground, looking utterly humiliated. However, he didn’t panic at all. In fact, he looked like he was too lazy to resist. “Quan Jue, even if you kill me, either your mother or Xu Ye must die! If you want to fight, fight. If you want to kill, kill. Anyway, I will have one of them accompany me in death. I won’t be alone on the road to hell.”
“Alright, as you wish.” Quan Jue snorted and didn’t waste his breath on him. He hugged Chi Jiao and turned to leave.
Seeing Quan Jue’s gloomy expression, Chi Jiao advised softly after leaving, “Brother Quan, don’t be angry. Didn’t we already expect She Qi not to cooperate? That man can’t wait for us to kill each other. He won’t say anything unless we use some methods.”
Quan Jue’s muscles relaxed a little with her comforting words. However, he was still gloomy as he said slowly, “I know, but it won’t be easy to make him talk. I’ll get my men to interrogate him first. We’ll try again in two days.”
Chi Jiao wanted to say something but hesitated.
Actually, she wanted to say that She Qi was a tough nut to crack. Even if they beat him to death, he wouldn’t be willing to cooperate with them.
She Qi was their mortal enemy. He had always hoped for them to suffer. Now that he finally had a chance, he would never give it up.
To make She Qi speak would be as difficult as ascending to the heavens.
However, Quan Jue was already frustrated. Chi Jiao was unwilling to say anything that would further upset him.
Chi Jiao smiled and hugged his arm. “Brother Quan, let’s not talk about these unhappy things. Auntie just sent me a WeChat message asking us to go back for lunch.”
Seeing Chi Jiao’s smile, Quan Jue couldn’t bear to disappoint her. He hid his negative emotions and nodded. “Alright, let’s go home.”
Chi Jiao and Quan Jue held hands and returned to the Chi residence.
They smelled the fragrance of food the moment they reached home.
“It smells so good. Auntie, what delicious food did you make for us this afternoon?” Chi Jiao smiled as she walked into the kitchen and looked at Lu Xian.
Lu Xian instantly beamed upon seeing her. “Jiaojiao, Little Jue, look, I made your favorite spicy chicken and pork rib soup!”
