"You really intend to let me go?"
Xu Wenkui was quite surprised.
Although it was Xue Jing who personally proposed the deal, saying that he would use her Demon's Eye to help suppress that Divine being before agreeing to let her leave,
Xu Wenkui did not believe that Xue Jing would truly keep his promise. She had agreed only because she had no choice under the circumstances; if she didn't help, she might even suffer some form of torture.
She was not a martyr fiercely dedicated to her mission, capable of enduring torture by an enemy nation without yielding any secrets—there was no need for her to stubbornly resist. Whatever Xue Jing asked her to do, she would do, merely aiming for compliance.
She just hadn't expected there actually to be such good fortune...
"I always keep my word," he said. "If I say I'll kill your entire family, I'll kill your entire family. If I say I'll let you go, I'll let you go. I won't go back on my word."
Xue Jing stroked his chin as he spoke.
