Chapter 219 Offer Myself (1)_1
He, as a person, had survived among many members, his intelligence, cunning, and responsiveness were all very formidable. When he found out that the chip in his brain truly no longer existed, he felt a surge of joy and release in his heart.
However, before he had too long to rejoice, he thought of the organization that had controlled him for over ten years, and the methods it employed against traitors. There was no tolerance for betrayal in the organization, and he could already foresee the Leader’s rage upon learning of his defection and the orders that would follow. What lay ahead for him was relentless pursuit until death.
Although his abilities were among the top three in the organization, or even the very best, which was why the Leader had personally changed the plan for him to undertake this important mission at the last minute, even he was not confident that he could withstand the organization’s relentless pursuit.
He also knew that to escape the organization’s pursuit, he would need to rely on someone powerful. His intuition told him that this petite girl before him, as beautiful as a celestial being, would be his lifelong support and redemption.
Moreover, since he believed Situ Xin had saved his life, he decisively spoke up, telling her that he wanted to follow and protect her for the rest of his life.
After hearing the man’s words, Situ Xin swallowed the refusal she was about to voice. She didn’t respond to the man but fell into deep thought herself.
She knew that keeping this man might mean inviting trouble, perhaps even facing off against the underground organization because of him. Situ Xin wasn’t afraid of the organization; with her own abilities, she was more than a match for an underground organization. However, Situ Xin detested trouble. She felt it wasn’t worth it for a stranger.
But then she thought, if she didn’t offer refuge to this man, he would certainly be hunted by the underground organization, and all the Spiritual Energy she had spent would have been wasted.
Situ Xin couldn’t help but sigh, torn inside.
Baibai, seeing her master so conflicted, couldn’t help but roll its eyes and said to Situ Xin, "Master, is it worth getting this worked up over something so trivial? I think since the guy is willing to stay, you might as well accept him. You’ve been short on capable hands, and from what I’ve seen, this guy has potential. Just heal the chronic injuries he’s had for years and give him some training; he should be a decent subordinate." Baibai knew that because of her master’s young age, many things were restricted. Now that someone was offering themselves, it would be a sin not to take advantage of it.
At first, Situ Xin wanted to scold Baibai for the first part of its statement, but upon hearing the rest, she also felt it made sense. In recent years, apart from the people from Dragon Society, she indeed lacked capable subordinates by her side. Situ Xin then thought about investigating the underground organization to gauge its strength.
