Su Ling's Time Travel

Chapter 71: A Contest of Wisdom and Courage

During their escape, Su Ling and Wei Zihao endured countless hardships. They were once cornered by their pursuers and nearly gave up due to hunger and exhaustion. However, they never abandoned each other, nor did they give up their yearning for freedom.

Finally, on a clear, moonlit night, they successfully crossed the border and returned home. As they set foot on familiar soil, their hearts were filled with excitement and emotion. They knew they had finally returned to the embrace of freedom.

However, their hearts were also filled with worry. They knew that Jingzhe would not easily abandon someone who had betrayed him. Their future remained uncertain and fraught with challenges. They had to remain vigilant at all times to deal with any potential dangers.

"Su Ling, we're finally back." Wei Zihao gripped Su Ling's hand tightly, his eyes gleaming with excitement and relief. He knew that Su Ling had made countless efforts and sacrifices for this moment. And he had been by her side the whole time, sharing this thrilling escape journey with her.

Su Ling smiled slightly, her eyes shining with determination. "Yes, Zihao. We're finally back."

Night fell, and the silvery moonlight draped the ancient city in a veil of mystery. In a corner of the city, Su Ling and the police were meticulously setting a trap, their sole objective being to capture Jing Zheqing and his gang of thieves in one fell swoop.

Su Ling stood in the shadows, her gaze resolute and calm, as if piercing through the darkness to meet the impending storm. Her cooperation with the police had not been smooth sailing, but a common enemy bound them closely together.

"Su Ling, are you sure Jing Zheqing will take the bait?" a police officer asked in a low voice, a hint of unease in his tone. After all, Jing Zheqing was no ordinary person; his cunning and ruthlessness were notorious in the industry.

Su Ling smiled slightly, her smile appearing particularly mysterious in the night. "He will come, because what he wants is here." Her voice was deep and powerful, as if every word contained boundless strength.

The officer nodded; he trusted Su Ling's judgment. After all, she was the one who personally exposed Jing Zheqing's true colors, and she was also the one who provided crucial clues about the thief group. She played an indispensable role in this confrontation.

Time ticked by, the air seemed to freeze, the tension almost suffocating. Suddenly, a series of hurried footsteps broke the silence of the night, and Jing Zheqing arrived as expected.

His eyes were sinister, as if they could see through everything. However, he was unaware of the trap, because his mind was only focused on his desire for that "thing".

“Su Ling, I know you’re here.” Jing Zhe’s voice echoed in the night sky, a hint of amusement in his tone. “You think you can escape my grasp? You’re too naive.”

Su Ling emerged from the shadows, her gaze meeting Jing Zhe's in mid-air, like two bolts of lightning colliding in the night sky. "Jing Zhe, your crimes have been exposed. Today is your end." Her voice was calm and resolute, as if she had already foreseen the impending victory.

Jing Zheqing sneered, his eyes flashing with a crazed light. "Su Ling, do you think you can beat me? I am Jing Zheqing, and no one has ever been able to defeat me." His tone revealed an arrogant and domineering air.

However, Su Ling was not intimidated by his imposing manner. She smiled slightly, as if she could see right through him. "Jing, you are indeed very powerful. But you have forgotten the most important point—justice will always prevail over evil." Her voice was gentle yet firm, like a warm force spreading through the night sky.

Just then, the police suddenly moved in and surrounded Jing. A look of surprise and resentment flashed in his eyes, but he knew he had nowhere to escape.

“Su Ling, you’ve won,” Jing Zhe said softly, his tone revealing a hint of helplessness and defeat. “But remember, there is no absolute justice or evil in this world. There is only power and self-interest.” His eyes were complex and profound, as if, at this moment, he had seen through the essence of life.

Looking at Jing Zheqing being arrested, Su Ling felt no joy of victory. She knew that although this duel was over, the battle of life would never end. She took a deep breath, as if trying to absorb all the memories of this night into her heart.

“Jing, you’re right. There is no absolute justice or evil in this world. But I believe that as long as we stick to our beliefs and principles, we will definitely be able to forge our own path.” Her voice was soft yet firm, as if it were a promise to herself and an expectation for the future.

Sunlight filtered through the clouds, dappling the ground and bringing a touch of warmth to the ancient city. However, in a certain corner of the city, a sense of oppression and heaviness permeated the air. Murong Yunhai, the once all-powerful man, now resembled a caged beast, his eyes filled with despair and resentment.
