A genius girl with her own space

Chapter 276 Saving the Monster

Xie Lei, who was on the top of the mountain, had already seen a man following the girl, although the man did not show up.

Xie Lei flew down the mountain and landed beside the girl. He looked behind her. "Come out! Stop looking. I won't hurt her. If I did, I wouldn't give you medicine to heal your wounds."

The demon beast man appeared, pulling my sister behind him. "You gave my sister the medicine. You're a human. Why did you save us? Aren't you afraid we'd kill you? You humans kill our own kind, take our demon cores, and refine them. You've cut off their chance of reincarnation. I wish I could drink their blood and eat their flesh. You're just asking for death, aren't you?"

"Brother, what are you doing? You can't repay kindness with evil." The girl stood in front of her brother.

Xie Lei said nothing and explained nothing. He didn't do these things.

"Why don't you say anything? What are your intentions? Do you want to use my sister to kill us and take our demon pills? Or do you really want to help us?" the girl's brother asked.

"It would be easy for me to kill you. Why should I save you?" Xie Lei slapped the stone with his palm, and the stone shattered immediately.

The girl's brother was startled, and he couldn't take Xie Lei's blow.

"Every life has the right to live in this world. As human beings, we cannot deprive any life. I can't control what happens to them. As long as they don't hurt me, I won't hurt any life, including you. I gave your sister the elixir because she looks like my sister. I can't find her now. I just want to save you, nothing else." Xie Lei said.

"Brother, listen to what this older brother says. I just believe he won't hurt us."

"Okay, you can make me believe you. If you can heal my injured brothers, I will trust you. Do you dare to promise?"

"Okay, I promise you, you'll take me to see them." Xie Lei had the medicine Qiqi had given him, as well as a lot of pills. He was confident he could heal the injured animals.

They soon reached the cave. Xie Lei examined each beast's injuries, applied medicine, and bandaged them. He then gave each beast a pill. Soon, their pain subsided, and their injuries healed.

They all shouted with joy. Some of the animals transformed into humans and came over to thank Xie Lei.

The girl's brother also bowed to Xie Lei. "Thank you so much for saving my life. I was too petty. If you need us in the future, please feel free to come to me. I will do my best to help you."

"No need. Our meeting is fate. It is my duty to save you. Goodbye, I still have to find my relatives."

Just as Xie Lei was about to leave, a beast ran over and told the girl's brother that a large group of mercenaries had gathered and were coming here. They had captured our sentries and were bringing them here.

"What? How many of them came? Where did they go?"

"Chief, there are more than 200 of them. They are already at the foot of the mountain. They will rush up soon."

"Sister, please take the injured animals and run to the mountains as soon as possible. The farther you run, the better. Don't seek revenge anymore. Leave some roots for our demon clan. Please, sister." The brother pleaded.

"Brother, take care of yourself. I'll take them away now. Come on, let's go. We can't hold them back. The further we go, the greater their chances of survival. Brothers, if you can't fight, run away. Don't try to be tough."

The brother watched his sister and the others run away. Dozens of them transformed and picked up their weapons, all baring their teeth and roaring in anger.

"You should leave quickly. We don't want to implicate you. We will repay your kindness in the next life." The girl's brother said to Xie Lei.

Xie Lei then clasped his fists and disappeared in a flash.

"Chief, he saved us, why don't you let him help us again? Look, his abilities are much stronger than ours. With his joining, our chances of winning will be much greater." said a beast transformed into a human form.

"You know he saved us. We can't be so heartless as to drag him into our feud. We have to solve our own problems ourselves. Let's stop these mercenaries and buy time for my sister and the others to escape."

They rushed down the mountain and intercepted the mercenaries ascending. A fight ensued, and soon several of the beasts were injured. The girl's brother was also struck in the shoulder by the mercenary leader, blood streaming down his arm. None of them retreated.

Xie Lei stood on the top of the mountain, watching their fight below. Should he help or not? He couldn't just watch these beasts being killed by the mercenaries.

Xie Lei donned a mask and flew down the mountain with a large sword. He joined the fight and first rescued the beasts in danger. He injured the mercenaries so that they could no longer harm the beasts, but he didn't kill them.

Soon, he wounded over twenty of the mercenaries. Xie Lei saw the girl's brother struggling to hold on, fighting the mercenary leader. He couldn't fall, because if he did, his beasts would be powerless.

Xie Lei knocked down several mercenaries in succession and came to the girl's brother, supporting him immediately.

"You take a rest first and leave him to me." The girl's brother heard that the person who rescued them had returned.

"Be careful, he's very strong." The girl's brother was also busy. He attacked the other mercenaries fighting.

The mercenary leader saw a masked man approaching, and he couldn't tell if he was a human or a beast in disguise. They fought together. They both used large swords.

Xie Lei's immortal weapon was no match for the mercenary leader's sword, which he chopped off with one blow. Xie Lei then kicked him in the chest, sending him flying five meters, breaking several ribs. He collapsed to the ground, unable to fight.

Xie Lei didn't kill him, but went to rescue the other beasts. The girl's brother saw the mercenary leader lying on the ground. Remembering his brothers and the sight of their beast cores being dug out, he fiercely grasped his spear and stabbed the mercenary leader in the chest. The stab pierced his heart, and the mercenary leader died instantly.

When the mercenaries saw their leader was dead, they knew they could not gain any advantage today, so they retreated, not even taking the mercenary leader's body with them.

Xie Lei saw the mercenaries' true nature. They didn't even care about their own people, only caring about running away. Such people are like mothers who feed them. They rush to the front when there's something advantageous, and retreat to the back when there's nothing advantageous.

The girl's brother and the other animals came to thank Xie Lei for saving their lives. They all knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Xie Lei.

Xie Lei quickly helped the girl's brother up. "No need, it's just a small effort. You shouldn't live in this mountain anymore. The mercenaries will come looking for you again. They hunt you for profit. Retreat to the deep mountains."
