Chapter 797: No Other Way
Xia Qingcheng regretfully told them, "So, you don’t need to think of other ways; there’s nothing we can do."
Han Jing...
"Senior, could you think again... could it be... you’ve forgotten?" Really can’t give up, is there really no other way?
Xia Qingcheng silently looked at Han Jing and Su Yu the same way, then got up and left.
Han Jing leaned on Su Yu, muttering, "Now I finally believe, you and that old man really are father and son, this disinterest in everyone is exactly the same. Can you not just walk away in the middle of a conversation? Such personality, it’s surprisingly hereditary!"
Su Yu...
"What kind of twisted logic is that?" Su Yu couldn’t help but laugh, then said, "If the Shengxue Pearl is really related to the space where the Xia Clan exists, do you think Xia Ji would really break it?"
Han Jing shook her head, "Theoretically no, but who knows if that crazy woman might really go mad and want to drag everyone to Hell with her! Like, she might want to vent all her resentment on these innocent people."
Han Jing sat up straight, staring at Su Yu, "Or maybe, she’ll perversely tell everyone she’s holding the Shengxue Pearl and that as long as she breaks it, everyone will die here due to the space collapsing, causing panic as she perversely watches everyone go mad, fragile, turn against each other, struggle to survive?"
Su Yu...
"Where did you get that idea from?"
Han Jing stated solemnly, "When I used to be an assassin, I met many psychotic killers like that. Many people, after experiencing some special psychological stimulation, develop a ****** personality. Under the influence of this personality, they often do very perverse things, finding pleasure in it. Xia Ji... can be considered one of them, though she hasn’t reached the point of killing for fun, but she’s... not too far off."
Han Jing actually didn’t have much research in criminal psychology, but when they underwent their devil training back then, their coach showed them many criminal cases to strengthen their courage and psychological endurance.
There are actually quite a lot of people like Xia Ji who become psycho twisted after being stimulated, it’s just Xia Ji happened to encounter them.
What’s even more frustrating is, currently they’re still no match for Xia Ji.
Of course, even being Xia Ji’s match now is useless, because she’s holding the lifeline of the entire Xia Clan in her grasp, ready to send them to their doom at any moment.
"Perhaps the Shengxue Pearl has other uses?" Su Yu suddenly interjected.
Han Jing was left speechless, she blinked her eyes, and then exclaimed, "Right, why didn’t I think of that? If the Shengxue Pearl really has other uses, then maybe her purpose isn’t to perish together with everyone, but rather has some other ulterior motive? But... if even Xia Qingcheng, the clan leader doesn’t know, could it be... we’re overthinking it?"
Xia Qingcheng, as the clan leader of the Xia Clan, the Shengxue Pearl is such an important sacred object of the Xia Clan, how could it make sense that Xia Ji knows something Xia Qingcheng doesn’t!
But this woman Xia Ji, first, is cruel enough, and second, traveling all the way to the Xia Clan just to perish together with everyone? Doesn’t make sense!
