Chapter 716 Give Us a Reward
The sentries did not move, unafraid of being destroyed by her.

“You can kill us anytime you want,” Sevi said. “But if you still want Alex’s body, let us live a little longer.”

Yu Xia paused, startled by his voice. He was the sentry who had stopped Kleeman earlier.

Sevier glanced at the golden flower in front of him and said, "I never expected you to have such an ability. Luckily, I didn't throw it away."

Yu Xia: "Where is he?"

Seeing that she had calmed down a bit, Sevi tentatively approached her. Seeing that she had no intention of attacking, he squatted down beside her again and raised his hand, saying, "Is it alright?"

Yu Xia stared at him for a while, then nodded.

Sevi placed his hand on her head, and their consciousnesses became linked.

After a moment, he patted her head and then reluctantly withdrew.

"You should know what to do next."

Seeing her distressed and heartbroken expression for Alex, Sevi said, "When Alex was still conscious, he wanted me to destroy his body. He didn't want you to see him die, and he was even more afraid that Kleeman would cut him into pieces for you. That guy absorbed too much mineral energy and is almost insane."

Yu Xia asked in a hoarse voice, "Why didn't you do that?"

Sevi stared into her eyes, reached out to wipe away the tears formed from her spiritual energy, put them in his mouth to taste, and directly felt her emotions.

Sweet, yet bittersweet, it carried her feelings for Alex.

This was something he had never felt before.

This girl has an innate capacity for compassion for others, which comes from her bloodline.

It was this very aura that drew sentinels to her relentlessly, hoping to find salvation from her.

“I’ve heard stories of the Golden Clan,” Sevi said, looking at her. “I thought it was just a legend.”

Yu Xia didn't speak, her fingers running through Alex's hair, washing away the hidden dirt.

Gold, gold. This identity has become a heavy shackle for her.

She wanted to leave it all behind, but seeing the devastation in the contaminated area, she couldn't stay out of it.

Her fate had long been intertwined with these things; only by finding the root cause could she solve the problem and obtain the true freedom she desired.

Seeing her expression, Sevi raised his hand, but ultimately lowered it.

He answered her previous question, "I didn't listen to Alex and destroy his body because I had ulterior motives."

Yu Xia looked up at him.

Looking into her eyes, which seemed ready to burst into tears at any moment, Sevi sighed and lowered his head.

That sigh contained so many complex emotions.

Resentment, jealousy, and being moved
He was resentful that he had only met her now, that she had only appeared before him now, and he was jealous of Alex. He thought that he was just like Kleeman and the others.

Fortunately, at the very last moment, he still retained a tiny bit of what could be called conscience.

“Okay, actually I wanted him to kill Kaiser and the others,” Sevi said.

Yu Xia was puzzled, "Isn't Alex already..."

Sevi pointed to the sentry in her arms and said, "His consciousness is trapped with us, or rather, his lingering resentment. This place will preserve all his negative emotions. His intense hatred for Kleeman and the others will turn him into an incredibly sharp knife. And his obsession with you will help us take you away."

Yu Xia pursed her lips, her face showing anger.

“Don’t be angry,” Sevi said. “These are all my arrogant and bastard ideas. Whether I can implement them successfully depends on you.”

“Obviously, I overestimated myself and underestimated you.” Sevi smiled, a hint of admiration in his eyes for Yu Xia. “You lied to Kaiser, didn’t you? You didn’t even wear the energy ore he gave you.”

Yu Xia was slightly surprised, then realized that he was trying to trick her into revealing information. Although she didn't say anything, her expression had already allowed Xivi to successfully extract information. "You're quick on the uptake," Xivi smiled like a fox. "You're really likable. If I were still alive, I'd probably do some bastard things to you too."

Yu Xia curled her lip and said, "You Snake Family people are really annoying."

As soon as she finished speaking, a chorus of disgruntled hisses rose from the surrounding sentries, each one glaring at Alex as if they wanted to pierce him with holes.

This differential treatment is infuriating!

“Yes.” Sevi smiled and pointed at Alex. “What about him? Don’t you dislike him?”

“I hate it too,” Yu Xia whispered.

A chorus of "tsk" sounds arose.

Yu Xia glared angrily at the group of sentries.

Sevi sighed again, getting back to the point, "Now that you've found him, he won't turn out the way I described. However, if you want to take him away from us, you'll have to give something in return, little girl."

Yu Xia hugged Alex tightly, looking at him hesitantly, "What do you want?"

Sevi looked at her for a moment and said, "Give us a reward."

After he finished speaking, the sentries silently surrounded him.

Yu Xia: "."

Sevi carefully studied her expression, then smiled and waved the sentries away. "Don't make that face, it's making me want to do something."

Yu Xia: "You really are a bastard."

Sevi smiled broadly; he hadn't been this happy in a long time.

Yu Xia glanced at them and said calmly, "I will purify you, but you are too deeply connected to the pollution, and your original spiritual landscape should have disappeared. I can only do a superficial purification. As for anything else, don't even think about it. I won't give you that chance."

Sevier asked, "How exactly did this guy manage to soften your heart?"

Yu Xia said, "There aren't any bastards like you."

Sevier: "That's it? Can you tell me some of his merits that we can believe in?"

Yu Xia thought for a moment, "He's easy to coax."

Another chorus of "tsk" sounds erupted.

“Alright,” Sevi sighed, “Stop talking, or I’ll want to throw him back into that stinking mud.”

Yu Xia held Alex and looked at him warily.

Sevi smiled, then said seriously, "You can purify all the pollution here, right?"

Yu Xia paused for a moment, then nodded: "I can."

“However,” Yu Xia hesitated, “it’s not entirely about purification. The pollution is too deeply rooted. I have to attack it to completely eliminate the pollution.”

Sevi said, "Very well, let's do it that way."

Yu Xia exclaimed in surprise, "If you do this, you won't be able to hold out for long. The mental pollution at the bottom is deeply entrenched and has become the foundation and connecting element of your shared mental landscape. If you destroy it all, this mental landscape will become riddled with holes and will shatter soon. If you only do shallow purification, you can hold out a little longer and perhaps find a better way."

Sevi listened quietly to her finish speaking, and then said, "Don't be so nice to us. Those are not things you should be thinking about."

Yu Xia opened her mouth, but swallowed her words.

Sevi: "Don't pity us at this time."

With that, he raised and clenched his hand, sending one of the sentries behind him flying back into the darkness and merging into the swamp. "Remember, we're all bastards. Your scent is too delicious; it will attract wolves."
