Unrepentant

As he spoke, Jiang Ming took out a silver needle and inserted it into one of Chu Nanxing's acupuncture points. 

Chu Nanxing immediately gasped. He felt like his entire body was about to explode, but he could not escape the pain. 

He bared his teeth and said to Jiang Ming, "You can't save Xia Chenjing. Even if you kill me, it's useless. Moreover, the longer you waste time, the faster he will die." 

As he spoke, he could not help but laugh. 

"If you tie him up now, he won't be able to struggle or touch you. Even if you save him, he'll still be a cripple. As a general, how can he afford to be crippled? Do you think he'll still thank you for saving him? He would wish that he'd rather have died." 

Jiang Ming could not help but come back to his senses. 

Jiang Ming simply searched for the jade pendant on Chu Nanxing's body before tying him up with a rope. 

After finding the jade pendant, he walked to Xia Chenjing's side.
