"Has the body been brought back..."
Liu Xiaojiang reached out to take the pouch that Hu Li threw over, but he didn't even look at the body stored inside the magic artifact.
"Yes..." Hu Li nodded.
"According to master..."
"Ah Li didn't overly damage Mr. Xu San's body. She only cut off some of the important blood vessels around his heart, and... deliberately left a flaw, letting them know that Mr. Xu San might still be alive."
"Xu Si and Zhang Chulan believed it?" Liu Xiaojiang took back the pouch that Liu Yanyan had snatched away out of curiosity and put it into his shirt pocket.
"Hmph hmph..." Hu Li's eyes narrowed, and then she smiled confidently. "Master, don't worry."
"Mr. Xu Si and Zhang Chulan are both smart people, and smart people... are the easiest to 'deceive'."
"You didn't want me to tell them about Mr. Xu San because you wanted them to understand what you meant. Don't think that …"
At this point,
She subconsciously looked at Liu Yanyan, who was beside Liu Xiaojiang, and said, "Is this matter actually very important to you?"
"Since you want to create the illusion that you don't care about this matter at all, and that you don't care whether you can use this matter to blackmail them, then the attitude that I showed in front of them... should be enough."
"Moreover, even if Mr. Xu Si and Zhang Chulan are quite suspicious and won't easily believe the 'facts' that they have spent so much effort to guess, as long as they can understand the possibility of Mr. Xu San's resurrection, those people... will definitely not cause you any more trouble."
"After all, there is also a sense of camaraderie between the few of them …"
"Very good." Liu Xiaojiang did not deny this point.
It was precisely because of the affection between Zhang Chulan and the others that they helped Feng Bao Bao find her background regardless of the consequences. Even though they knew that this matter was extremely risky, so many people were still willing to stay by Feng Bao Bao's side to help her.
This was both the brilliance of human nature and the weakness of human nature.
But it was also because of this...
Liu Xiaojiang knew that Zhang Chulan and the others would definitely not give up.
He knew very well that even if he used Xu San's life to blackmail Zhang Chulan and the others, he could only ensure that these guys would not act as recklessly as before in a short period of time... They would inevitably start their own schemes again because of Feng Bao Bao's' setback '.
After all, he didn't take advantage of the other party's weakness and kill them with his own hands. Therefore, the matter would never end because of this.
This was only a delaying tactic.
But the time brought by this matter was enough for him. As long as he stabilized Zhang Chulan and the others in a short period of time and waited for everything to change in his hands, when that happened... he believed that one day, he would be able to find a perfect solution to the problem.
Now...
He didn't have the time or the energy.
He couldn't possibly focus all his attention on Feng Bao Bao, let alone give up the plan that he was advancing for Feng Bao Bao alone.
Because the plan had been executed to this day, only the last and most important step was left.
As long as Liu Xiaojiang completed the next crucial step, all he had to do was wait for Wuyue to create enough vessels. Then, he would immediately follow his original plan and transform into a calamity for all of humanity. Everything … would have no choice but to turn upside down with the name 'Ying Gou'.
"Master?"
"... What's the matter?"
"Next, we..."
"Bring Yanyan back with you. Next, you only need to... No, I can only do it alone," Liu Xiaojiang said calmly.
Seeing this...
Hu Li couldn't hold back and carefully probed, "Are you... going to the company next?"
"Ah Li..." Liu Xiaojiang couldn't help but frown slowly. "Sometimes, being too smart isn't necessarily a good thing... Don't continue."
"... Yes, Ah Li understands." Hu Li subconsciously glanced at the inexperienced girl beside Liu Xiaojiang. Then, he nodded in understanding, but then he said with some worry, "That's right, Brother Liu.
"Although Ah Li understands why you're doing this, do you... really not need a helper next?"
"I'm definitely not questioning your strength, Master, but what's going to happen next involves..."
"No need." Liu Xiaojiang didn't wait for Hu Li to finish speaking and directly interrupted him.
"There's only one nine-tailed fox in this world, and only you are the most suitable to lead that group of elves. If it's someone else in the future... I'm not the only one who will feel uneasy."
"I know what you're thinking, and I know that you're even willing to give up your life for this..."
"But if we can't guarantee that the elves will still be able to establish a foothold in the world in the future, even if we win in the near future... What can we do?"
"Ah Li, don't put the cart before the horse..."
Hu Li hesitated, "But..."
"What you should value should be your own race, those elves who have been abandoned by the Heavenly Dao." Liu Xiaojiang shook his head.
"As the elder of those elves, you have been very competent for many years. Finally... Don't break your promise because of me, the so-called master. You and I are not simply master and servant. It's just that you chose to follow me in this identity."
"In fact..."
At this point...
Liu Xiaojiang showed a rare gentle smile in front of Hu Li. "I have no ill intentions towards your elven race from the beginning. It's just that my butt decided that I had to make a trip personally."
"After all, when I learned that there were elves in the world, there were foreign species like you who were somewhat similar to me, and there were little demons like you who had crossed thousands of years..."
"I really wanted to sit with you, drink and admire the moon while saying to the sky: F * ck the Heavenly Dao!"
"Unfortunately..."
"In the end, it didn't give me this opportunity, nor did it give you the 'qualification' to sit with me and drink and chat. Instead... because of its existence, we almost turned against each other. But fortunately, there's a smart guy like you."
"In the end..."
"And the scene that it hoped to see didn't happen..."
Hu Li couldn't help but be moved. "Master..."
"I've already told you before. You can actually call me by my name. The so-called master and servant... is only a situation that you think is reasonable." Liu Xiaojiang smiled and shook his head.
Then...
He then turned around and walked away in a rather confident manner. He waved his hand with his back facing the two women who were still standing in the same place, and said:
"Ah Li, I'll leave Yanyan to you..."
"Yanyan..."
"Do as I told you before. After you go back with her... there are only three women you can trust."
As soon as he finished speaking...
Liu Yanyan was about to say something, but looking at Liu Xiaojiang's back as he left alone, she felt the loneliness that Liu Xiaojiang exuded. In the end, she considerately shut her mouth, not wanting to cause trouble for her brother because of a little doubt in her heart.
On the other hand, Hu Li.
After she felt the emotions that Liu Xiaojiang unconsciously revealed, the look in her eyes became even more complicated.
Lie!
Perhaps...
Until now...
You still feel that you're all alone, right …?
