"Just kill me." Vegeta smiled bitterly, speaking indifferently to Captain Ginyu.
"Kill you? Heh heh, no, no, no, I won't kill you." Ginyu chuckled softly. "Lord Frieza wants to see you. Heh heh, consider yourself lucky; I won't kill you just yet. Once you see Lord Frieza, he will naturally deal with you himself."
After saying this, Ginyu waved at Jeice and Recoome, signaling them to take Vegeta onto the spaceship.
The Ginyu Force had brought five small space pods in total, though they weren't well-suited for all four of them to ride together. Fortunately, when they destroyed the other spaceships, Ginyu had specifically instructed them to leave Zarbon's pod behind.
Under the escort of Jeice and Recoome, Vegeta was brought onto the spaceship.
"Alright, we can set off now." Ginyu chuckled, not bothering to make things difficult for the people on Earth, as he felt the Earthlings were quite straightforward.
Soon, the ship launched, and with a loud roar, it reached outer space in the next second.
"Captain, Earth is of no use anymore. Why don't we just wipe it out?" Jeice suggested from the side.
"No. Earth's ecological environment is decent enough, and it even managed to trick that idiot Vegeta. I actually find the Earthlings quite cute now." Ginyu smiled. "Besides, Earth is too far from our territory. Let's leave it for now; Lord Frieza will naturally make arrangements when the time comes."
Hearing this, Jeice nodded and said nothing more.
However, what Ginyu and his two companions failed to see was the mocking smile clearly hanging on Vegeta's face.
Vegeta's behavior just now had naturally been an act.
He was gambling—gambling that Ginyu and his men wouldn't destroy Earth.
He was also gambling that they wouldn't kill him.
The reason he concluded Ginyu wouldn't kill him was that they had given him too much time. Given the Ginyu Force's style of operation, they would never waste time waiting around; they could have easily destroyed Earth and made him disappear along with it.
Therefore, Vegeta could almost conclude that Frieza most likely had other business with him.
As for what that business was, Vegeta didn't know.
And by using Ginyu and his men, taking the opportunity to lead all the extraterrestrials away from Earth was the best choice.
Regardless, doing this meant Earth was temporarily out of danger.
After all, if he stayed on Earth and wiped out Ginyu and his men, the next step would be for Frieza to descend personally.
Vegeta's current strength was not yet enough to fight Frieza to the death, so he could only avoid his sharp edge for the time being.
In any case, the cells within Vegeta's body could regenerate; although the regeneration took a long time, it was better than nothing.
Of course, Vegeta had his own trump cards for doing this; if Ginyu and his men had truly intended to act against Earth, he would have simply killed them in an instant.
As for the Guardian's aggressive attitude, Vegeta hadn't actually taken it to heart at all. The reason he acted this way was simply because he didn't want to see Earth destroyed because of him, which would result in that cute little girl, Bulma, getting caught in the crossfire.
After Vegeta left Earth, the Guardian finally let out a long sigh of relief.
After resting for a moment, the Guardian took a look at the egg left behind by Demon King Piccolo, then returned to the Lookout without looking back.

"Guardian, that little monster has finally left; Earth is finally at peace now," Karin chirped happily, as if they had achieved a great victory.
"Indeed, Earth cannot withstand any more turmoil," the Guardian nodded with a smile. "However, what I did not expect was that although Vegeta is a bit wicked, he did not go back on his word."
Vegeta, currently sailing through the cosmos, gave a faint smile and thought to himself: Old Guardian, just you wait. One day, you will be begging me to return to Earth!
