Mad Scientist - Chapter 58
‘ What happend. ‘ thought Bai Jie. he was completely clueless about the situation.
Bai jie looked towards them trying to recognize these people. But they wore different clothing.
” Who are you. ” Bai jie asked in an emotionless tone.
” You don’t need to know we are here to kill you. ” said the other guy. Most of the people ignored and left the area.
” I see let’s see if you can catch me. ” Bai jie scanned the area with his spirit sense.
there were only three of them and pedestrians. Bai jie picked Ming Xue up and started running towards the dark alleys. There were too many people in the streets here.
” Catch him he is running. ” the three men followed.
Bai Jie ran at a moderate speed he was luring them. He would scan every house with his spirit sense to find a house that was empty.
After running around for a while he found a place it was more like a warehouse. Bai jie opened the gate and went in.
“He is in the storehouse,” said one of the men. he was very informative about this area.
“let’s go. ” it was a big wooden door.
” Why it’s so dark inside its only dawn right now. ” said one of the men.
” Of course it’s dark this storehouse needs to be a cooler idiot. shut up and find him. ” said the other guy.
Bam
suddenly the door closes. The three men looked back they saw the kid trying to capture was there standing.
” Kid you sure sealed your own fate. it’s good that you locked the door. ” said one of the guards.
” Did the heavenly pavilion send you,” asked Bai Jie. Currently, only people he had some beef could be Han Bing. He didn’t feel any other person would try to kill a few children.
Two of them looked at each other confused.
” So what if it’s the heavenly pavilion you are going to die anyway. ” replied one of the men.
While all of them had drawn their swords.
” I see,” replied Bai Jie. He knew he can’t waste any more time. He knew these people were lying. He sighed ‘ if it isn’t the heavenly pavilion then who. ‘ Bai Jie creased his eyebrows even more.
“where is the girl if you give her to us I will promise you, we will take you in alive. ” said one of the men.
Bai jie didn’t speak anymore. He knew the situation was very severe these people are completely bent on killing. Bai jie tried to interrogate but the man just spewed blood and died Bai Jie thought it was just a coincidence. Bai jie absorbed their corpses.

” No. ” Ming Xue opened her eyes. She felt she was bound by all sides. She was wrapped around in a white cloth. She noticed that she was moving very fast all she saw many trees pass by around her.
” Was it a dream. “mumbled Ming Xue. She never moved this fast. She thought she was carried away to yellow springs after death just like in the books she read. ‘ if I wake up everything will be alright. ‘thought Ming Xue.
” You awake. ” Ming Xue heard a familiar voice this also brought her out of her half sleepy state. it was Bai jie. He was carrying her on his back. it looked more like a cocoon. After dealing with the men he tried to search through there bodies to find some clues but found nothing. Then he strapped Ming Xue on his back. it was much easier to carry her like that. He put on his black cloak to hide his face. They were near the cottage in the forest. Bai jie wanted to see for himself what happend so he was moving with full speed towards the cottage. Bai Jie still didn’t notice that he felt no fear from her.
” It’s me, ” asked Bai jie while he downed the hood of his cloak to show his face. He stopped and put her down
” It wasn’t a dream ” Ming Xue mumbled a few times then tears started falling from her eyes.
She had lost everything she had. ‘ Brother Grandma. ‘ many thoughts we’re going through her head.
” what happend, ” Bai jie asked. He knew the situation was urgent but he still didn’t understand the complete situation.
Ming Xue described while stuttering. Bai Jie expression changed after hearing her.
” I am sorry,” said Bai Jie. Bai Jie knew it was because of him that she was suffering like this. He knew that those guys recognized him. so the most probable cause was him.
Ming Xue didn’t reply she kept her head lowered. She had a lifeless look on her face.
” You wait here I will see what happend,” said Bai Jie. He was ready to move. Now that she was conscious Bai jie wanted to move as soon as possible. He also understood the situation was very precarious.
” Take me with you,” said Ming Xue with gritted teeth. Anger could be seen in her eyes.
” You will just ” Bai jie wanted to say ‘ you will just be a burden’ but he stopped. He looked closely towards her she was shivering.
Bai jie thought that it took a lot of courage to say it. He also had some guesses about what he might find there.
” Fine but you and I might die there, are you still willing to go. Your brother might have sacrificed his life to save you. You might be the last person who remembers him in this world.” Bai Jie asked in a serious tone. Bai Jie knew if Ming Jia was there he would never let her out his sight rather if he could he would not have allowed those people to come after her. This meant there could be a strong enemy for him.
Ming Xue backed a few steps. her legs felt weak. She understood what he meant that she might not like what they find. Many different scenarios started flashing through her mind. She remembered men killing the children and Ming Jia’s arm getting slashed.
” I, I want to go” Ming Xue.
“Alright,” said Bai Jie. He wasn’t Ming Jia who would try to hide but push them front to make their own decision. ‘ He might not like it but she has face reality one day. ‘ Bai Jie felt very guilty. ‘ If it wasn’t for that women’ Bai Jie thought of Han Bing. Anger rose in his heart.
Bai Jie picked up Ming Xue and put her on his back.
” Grab on tight,” said Bai Jie. he had already wasted time with her.
” smoke. “said Ming Xue. She saw smoke rising in the sky.
Bai Jie saw the smoke he began running at the full spread.
Ming Xue realized she wasn’t even able to keep up she held even tighter. ‘ He is strong. ‘ thought Ming Xue. She thought she didn’t have anything to live for anyway. ‘ He might be able to save them. ‘ Thought Ming Xue hope rising in her heart.
Bai jie was running through the forest he was making his way towards the cottage while sending waves of spirit sense.
after some time they finally reached the cottage.
” Throw the corpses inside why are we cleaning up this mess. ” said the men there were 7 of them while two had light injuries.
” just finish it quick ” replied the other guy with a condescending tone.
Bai jie saw many corpses there. Ming Xue also saw this scene. Bai jie felt the grip tightening around his neck. There were children who were slashed too many times.
” These people,” mumbled Bai Jie. He couldn’t describe this sensation. His blood was raging he involuntarily activated his parasite vision and spirit vision at the same time. His eyes turned complete dark with a red light flickering inside them.
” Let me deal with them,” said Bai Jie. He could feel the killing intent from her. He also had this urge. He put her down.
Ming Xue saw Bai Jie move he disappeared right in front of her eyes. All she saw was bodies falling on the ground one after another. Bai Jie left one alive to ask questions.’ currently Bai Jie had only one question on his mind. ‘ Who was it. ‘ Bai Jie mind was overwhelmed by bloodlust. He isolated the area.
“No. ” The man felt horrified. He saw his fellow dying one after another he didn’t even saw what killed them. He started running but Bai Jie didn’t give him the chance.
” Who are you,” Bai Jie asked. He was grabbing him from his neck. He appeared just like a ghost.
” Let me go I am just a mortal I have to do this or they will kill me and my family. I will tell you everything We are from Re ” The man wanted to speak more. He was feeling very scared of watching in those black eyes. But suddenly blood started oozing out from his mouth and he died.
” ” Bai Jie realized it wasn’t a coincidence anymore there was something that was keeping them from revealing the true information.
Bai Jie again checked the corpse but didn’t find anything on it. Bai jie punched a tree in frustration. He didn’t know who was his enemy. Bai jie looked towards Ming Xue she was sitting beside her brother’s corpse. She held his hand. Bai Jie felt his inner self shake watching this he felt another wave of guilt smashing in his heart. ‘ If I had just eliminated that girl the first time she saw me then these all would have been alive’ thought Bai jie. He didn’t like this feeling it was clawing in his heart. He went close to Ming Jia.
‘ wait a minute. ‘ thought Bai Jie. He saw something ridiculous. Bai jie rubbed his eyes again and looked closely again towards Ming Jia’s head. He saw his heart was pierced and blood flow had been stopped his body was lying in a pool of blood.
” Move away quick ” Bai Jie shouted while sitting beside Ming Jia. He ripped the clothing around his heart area. He checked his body temperature it wasn’t cold it was still warm. Ming Xue was shouting at him while crying. But Bai jie didn’t care anymore.
” His Brain is still alive ” mumbled Bai jie. From what he knew brain could sustain up to 7 minutes but from the temperature of Ming Jia body it’s almost 10 minutes. His Brain should have been dead.
‘ Could it be because of being a cultivator ‘ thought Bai Jie. He saw spirit energy inside his body didn’t leak as he had seen with others but it was still cycling in his body trying to fix the damaged tissue. But it was very slow or say too slow. And Ming Jia Lifeforce was draining rapidly.
‘ Lifeforce ‘ Bai Jie thought of another idea. he felt his heart beating faster. ‘ I might be able to save him. ‘ Thought Bai Jie.
