Quick Transmigration: Reforming the Blackened Big BOSS

Chapter 60 A Sword that Runs Rampant in the Apocalypse (60)

Revised and edited on: Otaku Translation

“I stumbled upon a nice dress the other day.
I'll give it to little Captain in a bit,” Shi Minzhi said, recalling the green dress he had found while rummaging through things.

Bai Tang shook her head, “I don't like wearing clothes that are too fancy.”

She preferred the everyday attire of this world, clean and straightforward, not dragging in the muck.

Shi Minzhi let out a sigh, “Then I guess it'll just keep collecting dust.”

He had forgotten what kind of thoughts he had when he picked up the dress in the first place.
Oh well, better to put it to use than let it go to waste.

Bai Tang's eyes twinkled with mischief as she teased, “It might not always collect dust.
Who knows, it might find its way to a suitable mistress.”

But that person would not be her, Bai Tang.

Shi Minzhi and Bai Tang chatted for a bit more before parting.

In the empty space where there was only him, Shi Minzhi spoke calmly, “She's back, you should know that by now.
Did you become a mute after entering the laboratory?”

The cursing voice of the zombie tree demon came to his ear, sounding pained and bitter, “They say that no one is more venomous than a woman, but I think that saying is way off the mark.
You're in a real hurry, aren't you?”

Shi Minzhi replied evenly, “I've been killed by her five times.
Only a fool would think that's unfair.
Besides, isn't this what you've been hoping for? If she dares to stand in my way, she should be prepared to bear my anger.”

He wanted to present an impulsive image in front of Bai Tang, and make her believe that he could change for the better.

See, that woman had fallen for it, hadn't she? Though not entirely convinced, what does that matter? He had all the time and means to make her relax her guard towards him.

“She still has more than 10% of her cultivation, unfortunately.
I can't come out, otherwise I could have killed her.”

“10%, you say?” Shi Minzhi murmured softly, with a hint of a smile on his lips.

Still too slow…

“Don't underestimate that 10% of cultivation.
Shi Minzhi, you must find a way to force her to take action and use her cultivation.
If the dark clouds in the sky don't disperse, she will never recover her cultivation.
Remember, you must act before that happens.
I don't want you to mess up at a critical moment,” the zombie tree demon warned.

Shi Minzhi's voice was icy, “The only one who can kill the little Captain is me.
I will prepare a wonderful feast for her.”

As for how to do it, Shi Minzhi already had an idea.

Bai Tang's disappearance and reappearance had sparked a hidden disturbance in the base.

Tang Manli found time and went to find Bai Tang.
Not seeing the detestable Shi Minzhi, Tang Manli was in a good mood.

“Captain Sister, you've been gone for so long, I saw Shi Minzhi not sleeping well at night.
He controlled a person and threw him out.”

“That was Shi Moxuan,” Bai Tang said, wiping Canglan.

Tang Manli was surprised, “Shi Moxuan? But, Captain Sister, this is very suspicious.
We have to be careful…”

Bai Tang, with her eyes drooping, gently stroked Coward’s fluffy head and said, “Manli, don't be afraid.
Shi Minzhi…
He's trying to come out of it.
What harm would it do to help him?”

Tang Manli grumbled, “Captain Sister, I'm afraid he'll pull you in too.
He was merciless when he shot you with the assault rifle.”

Bai Tang laughed dryly, “Manli, I was also merciless when I used the assault rifle in retaliation.
Shi Minzhi died at my hands five times, and I didn't show mercy even once.
Manli, if a person really repents, we should give them a hand.”

Tang Manli argued, “But what if it's someone who is beyond redemption?”

Bai Tang replied gently, “Helping them to do good and making them pay for their mistakes are not mutually exclusive.
We should help them to become a better person, but that doesn't mean we forgive them for their past crimes.
Only the victims have the right to forgive, and the criminal still needs to face punishment for their actions.”

Tang Manli suddenly felt a sense of clarity.
That's right, guiding someone towards good and making them face the consequences they deserve do not have to be mutually exclusive.
