Chapter 526: Avoid the Death Penalty
Translator: Lonelytree Editor: Millman97
She didn’t mind sharing information about energy crystal with Saohuang because she needed his
information as well. She needed to give in order to take. However, the trade wasn’t in her favor
because it turned out Saohuang knew less than she thought.
He said directly, “I don’t have many questions; I’m just curious why you two approached Xia Meng. If
there is indeed a motive, I’m pretty sure our target is the same. That thing is very special, but I have no
idea what its real usage is, maybe you know.”
“What thing?” Xinghe asked.
Saohuang looked at her and laughed. “Are you really that dumb or do you think I’m that dumb?”
“I can’t control what you think.”
“Xia Xinghe, I’ve already lost to you, won’t you tell me the truth as charity?”
Xinghe stared at him and said, “If you want the truth then you have to trade with truths.”
Saohuang groaned helplessly, “I’ve given you everything I know about this thing that I am talking
about.”
“Fine, then let me ask you, what is this thing you talk about?” Xinghe asked directly. Unlike Saohuang,
she had the upper hand in this negotiation. If Saohuang wanted to know the truth, he needed to
cooperate with her.
“It’s a type of black metal, but what kind I have no clue,” Saohuang told her. “However, I hear it is very
valuable, I’ve just not come across one before.” “What else do you know about that thing?”
“I know that many different parties are searching for it and know its location.
If you want it, then let’s make a deal.”
This was his purpose. He suspected Xinghe knew about the energy crystal and leaked some
information to her to test out her knowledge. If he saw Xinghe show comprehension of the topic then he
could be certain she was also looking for the energy crystal. Then he could demand for a deal in
exchange for the information he had.
“What kind of deal?” Xinghe didn’t continue this dance with him but cut to the point.
Saohuang shrugged and said, “Help me stay off the death row, that’s all I ask.”
Xinghe raised her brow. “Shouldn’t you ask the Lin family for that?”
Saohuang chuckled darkly. “I should consider myself lucky that the Lin family hasn’t had me
assassinated.”
“You knew that working together with the Lin family was like asking a tiger for his skin. You deserve the
fate that you have today.”
Saohuang nodded. “I know, which is why I will admit my sins, I will confess everything. I have nothing
to request other than avoiding the death penalty.”
“You don’t look like someone who is afraid of death,” Xinghe observed acutely.
Saohuang smiled. “Who isn’t afraid of death? After death, all hope is lost.”

“You believe me?” Xinghe felt like laughing. They were on opposing ends, why he believe her?

“Well, consider that I’ve misspoken then,” Saohuang smiled lightly. “So, what do you say, do you want
this deal?”
Xinghe gave a vague answer, “Like I said, your crime is too big, we can’t promise you anything..”
