Chapter 2244

Baili Xia met Mu Xiaojiu’s gaze, feeling conflicted.

What Uncle said just now was really touching, but Tian…

Behind Baili Xia, Tian was sobbing softly, teardrops falling.

Ever since she could remember, after going through so much training and facing the test of death, she had never been this scared before.

She once thought she would never fear anything, but just now, for some reason, she subconsciously feared losing her honor.

The brother was pushed aside by Baili Xia, his face red.

He looked at Mu Xiaojiu, then at Baili Xia, not knowing what to do.

Nangong Xu gently shook his head and slowly said, “No matter how we handle her, she won’t have a chance to escape.”

“Why don’t we first examine the poison in her body?”

Upon hearing Nangong Xu’s voice, Tian lifted her head slightly.

“You can’t cure my poison. Anyway, I’m as good as dead, just give me a quick end.”

Perhaps feeling that wasn’t enough, she added, “No matter what you do, I won’t leak a single word.”

Baili Xia turned back to look at her. Her exposed arms and legs were covered with scars.

How many trials has she endured to leave such marks on her body?

A person like this, at a time like this, would rather choose death for relief.

But if given a chance, who wouldn’t choose to live?

“I might have a way to cure your poison.”

Tian’s eyes briefly brightened, then dimmed instantly.

She shook her head slowly, saying, “Impossible, no one but him can cure this poison.”

“Him? Who is he?”

Tian raised her eyebrows warily, having accidentally let slip a piece of information just now.

“It’s nothing, don’t waste your effort.”

“You might as well give me a quick end, save everyone some time.”

Baili Xia gave her a slight smile and said, “Why not let me try? If I can cure your poison, at least you won’t die, right?”

Tian looked at her, then lowered her eyes in thought.

She wanted to live, but she absolutely would not reveal information about the organization to them.

If she stayed alive, she might hold out until someone came to rescue her, then she’d have a sliver of hope.

Although she knew well that it was unlikely anyone from the organization would come to rescue her.

“So, what do you say? I won’t ask you to tell me anything about your organization, I just don’t want to see you die like this.”

“Because you look so much like a friend I had when I was young.”

Tian looked up at her, a subtle change in her expression.

When they first met, Baili Xia and Zimo had mentioned this matter.

The friend they had seemed really important to them.

“You don’t need to waste your time on me. Ever since I could remember, I’ve been following others to train, there’s no way I could be your friend.”

Something flashed in Baili Xia’s mind. She started training as soon as she could remember…

To start training, she couldn’t have been too young. What about her memory before that?

Thinking of this, she hurriedly asked, “I just want you to answer one question for me, and I’ll save you, with no strings attached.”

Tian was slightly taken aback but still refused.

“I don’t need you to save me, and I won’t tell you anything useful.”

Beside them, Mu Xiaojiu had been watching patiently.

He could barely hold back, the cold aura on him beginning to rage again.

Baili Xia glanced at her and signaled to him with her eyes.

Then she turned back to look at Tian and said, “Don’t worry, this question won’t require you to disclose any information about your organization.”

“I just want to ask, when did you start training?”
