Being too ferocious because of caution

Chapter 839 Bai Zi

Zhao Yi said:

"There are bound to be many dangers on the road to the forest. I need a capable warrior by my side."

Ji Chen's old face turned red when he heard this:

"Thank you, Mr. Zhao, for trusting me, but are your expectations already too harsh?"

"In a day or two, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to break through to the post-god realm."

Zhao Yi rolled his eyes:

"Counting on you... I might as well count on myself."

Ji Chen coughed dryly:

"I'm sorry, but who do you want to choose as your personal bodyguard?"

Zhao Yi said nothing and stared at him.

Feeling Zhao Yi's deadly eyes, the embarrassment on Ji Chen's face gradually disappeared.

"no!"

"Absolutely not!"

He rejected Zhao Yi almost instantly.

But soon, Ji Chen realized that he had no right to refuse Zhao Yi at all.

At least he didn't directly reject Zhao Yi's power.

He pursed his lips, flustered and a little anxious:

"Sir, look..."

"You said it yourself, all the chess pieces in the underworld are now chess pieces. I don't know whether my sister is a black piece or a white piece. If I take her with me rashly, will it threaten your safety?"

"Moreover..."

Before he finished speaking, Zhao Yi interrupted him:

"Ji Chen, you are worried about your sister's safety."

"But I told you, everyone in the underworld is now a pawn."

"Whether it's your sister, the soul arrester, or the emperor of the ten palaces of the underworld..."

"When there is a need, a ghost like your sister will be the first batch of cannon fodder to be abandoned."

Looking at Ji Chen who looked very bad, Zhao Yi said softly:

"Your sister is very sensitive and trusts you very much. It is precisely because she has realized that she is in a huge whirlpool that she seeks your help."

"And what you are doing now...is to watch your sister fall into the abyss and remain indifferent."

He said, raising the tea cup in his hand:

"Obviously, you were able to save her before this happened."

Ji Chen sighed deeply:

"I always feel like you are brainwashing me, sir..."

"Although I really have no right to refuse you, Xiaopa is my sister. No matter how dangerous Po Shulin is, even if things are really as you said, there must be many eyes secretly staring at Xiaopa. She also I don’t know whether it’s Heizi or Baizi. Are you directly recruiting her to join the gang like this, or are you a personal guard? Aren’t you afraid that Xiaopa will receive a secret order and directly ruin your important matter at a critical moment? "

Zhao Yi smiled slightly:

"This is why I gave up the powerful bronze statue from the underworld and chose you, who are relatively weak."

"I'm worried that there is a third chess player outside the chess game."

"If the bronze statues only obey his arrangements, it means that they will not change their alignment."

"But it's different for living people like you."

"You have interests involved and emotional ties. It is much easier to control you... than to control them."

"That's the answer to your second question."

"As for your first question... about your sister who has eyes secretly watching you, you don't actually need to worry."

"I've done some tricks to avoid its prying eyes."

Ji Chen was stunned:

"Did you do anything?"

"What hands and feet?"

Zhao Yi stared at the tea cup in his hand and said calmly:

"Do you still remember when I went to Qin Guangdian to sue the church?"

Ji Chen nodded:

"Remember, after we parted, the soul arrester asked two ghost officers to escort you to Qin Guangdian..."

Zhao Yi said slowly:

"Those two people are from the church, and they are used to help the soul arrester gain trust from me."

He told exactly what he did at that time.

Ji Chen's eyelids jumped as he heard this.

He knew that Zhao Yi was not a simple person, but he didn't expect that he was so defensive. He actually started to pave the way for what he wanted to do next early in the morning!

"If you want your sister to follow us without being discovered, you only need to do two things - let her die, and then let her live."

Ji Chen's mind had already turned into a mess.

"What do you want to do?"

Zhao Yi took out a cigarette, put it on the table, and slid it to him.

"Your sister knew what little tricks I had done. Before leaving, the soul arrester gave her the agency permission, so she knew that the two people I killed were not two ghosts from the underworld."

"Now you go to the underworld and surrender to the divine mansion where your sister is, and say that you have found the two dead ghosts. When your sister sees the case and the surrender, she will immediately understand that I am looking for her, and she will take the initiative to take over the case. …”

"Looking at her 'eyes' and seeing this case, you will also suspect that I have seen through their plan early on, otherwise I would not suddenly carry out such a small move with unknown meaning."

"So they will arrange for your sister to investigate me. When your sister comes, I will 'kill' her..."

"This ring is closed."

"From the perspective of those people (Church of the Skull) who are watching your sister behind the scenes, there will be no logical problems - I saw through their plot, including your sister, so she was killed by me during the investigation."

"You can notify the family later and hold a funeral for your sister..."

"When the church's attention falls on me, it will naturally ignore your sister."

Listening to Zhao Yi's plan, Ji Chen's breathing became heavier.

"So, you didn't kill those two people on purpose, just to give my sister a reason to come to you?"

"You... even until now?"

Although I have felt the horror of Zhao Yi, the deeper I get to know him, the colder I feel.

How scary is a person who can predict the future?

Zhao Yi tapped the ash on himself and smiled:

"A chess piece, a position, has many ways to move."

"When you hold a funeral for your sister, she will meet me with a new identity."

"No matter what her identity was... from that moment on, she is the white piece."
