"What's the matter, are you recovered?" I asked. The last time in the car, because I drank deer blood the night before, she was quite injured.
"Mmm, for the first time, I felt like that thing was a bit addictive..."
"Alright, alright, there are outsiders, let's not talk about it for now." I put on a stern face and hung up the phone. I took a photo of the bank card with my phone and sent it to Chen Lu, then asked for the young lady's name.
"Chen Ke."
Chen Lu was a super VIP of Shengjing Bank. If she had any requests, she could just call the bank manager directly. She didn't even need to go there in person.
Less than a minute later, Chen Ke's phone rang. It was in her other pocket, and her hand was still numb, so she couldn't reach for her phone. I leaned over, took out her phone for her, and unlocked the screen to show her the deposit information. I didn't even verify it; 5 million was a trivial amount for Chen Lu. She hadn't even asked me what the money was for.
Chen Ke's eyes widened. She hadn't expected me to be serious!
"Satisfied?" I tossed the phone onto the bed. "You rest for a while longer. Leave by yourself when you're done. Oh, and remember to tidy up the room for me. Thanks."
With that, I got up and went out, preparing to go downstairs. Through my Qi observation technique, I noticed Lin Xi had returned. She had just arrived downstairs.
I have a good temper and wouldn't do anything to this beautiful little assassin. But Lin Xi might not be so forgiving, so it was best to avoid a confrontation.
I took the elevator downstairs. Lin Xi was just about to get into the elevator when she almost ran into me.
"What are you rushing for? What's wrong?" I steadied her and asked.
Lin Xi's expression was contorted, and she whispered, "I urgently need to go to the restroom!"
I immediately pointed to the public restroom not far from the elevator. "There's one over there, hurry!"
"Ah, right! I forgot!" Lin Xi patted her forehead and scurried towards the restroom with small, hurried steps.
A moment later, Lin Xi emerged refreshed. I had already asked the front desk for a cup of hot water and was cooling it down for her. Seeing her dusty appearance when she came in, her lips were dry. I guessed she had been too busy with work and dared not drink water when nature called. Lin Xi took the water, her eyes full of admiration. "Are you this warm? No wonder my sister praised you!"
"What did she praise me for?" I asked with a smile. It seemed I hadn't interacted much with Lin Chi.
Lin Xi smiled without answering, changing the subject. "By the way, is Jing Shen still here?"
"Yes, he just woke up not long ago."
"That's good," Lin Xi took a sip of water. "What about Ya Nan? You two pack up, we're preparing to relocate."
"Why relocate? Isn't Jing Shen here?"
"The main force of Mohe is coming," Lin Xi checked her watch. "They should arrive in about an hour. Right now, we don't know if they're coming for you, or for Jing Shen, or for both. So, it's better if we avoid them." kuAiδugg
"For Jing Shen? Didn't they suffer enough humiliation at Tianchi last time?" I asked with a smile. I hadn't experienced this myself; it was all from Lin Xi's account. A large group of Mohe Purple Qi experts had gone to Tianchi to capture Jing Shen, but at the first encounter, Mohe lost a Purple Qi expert. The others were so scared they didn't dare to fight and fled. On the way, they decided to bully me in Shengjing.
"Then perhaps they're coming for you," Lin Xi chuckled. "After all, you escaped from them. Whether you're useful or not, Long Yue needs to save face!"
"How can I, a Bai Ze, be useless?" I said, while observing Lin Xi's changing expression.
It was clear Lin Xi knew about this. Her expression froze for a few seconds before she slowly said, "Y-you, how did you know?"
"Little Yama told me. About the two great demon tribes, Bai Ze and Shan Hai, about reincarnation, he told me everything. He also said that you, Sha Bi Ya, your Underworld, and the informed demon tribes of the current Yan Xia all identified me as Bai Ze. That's why Long Yue and the others wanted to capture me first, as if capturing the entire Bai Ze demon tribe. So, that's why you advised me to relocate immediately, right?"
Lin Xi, worthy of being a captain of the Imperial Guard, quickly regained her composure and smiled faintly. "Since you know everything, you should understand the significance of your safety to the entire Yan Xia populace. Go pack quickly, I'll take you to a safe place."
"But I still think my significance is greater by staying with Long Yue," I echoed Yao Yao's words.
"Why?"
"Don't I have Bai Ze within me? Let it monitor the movements of the Shan Hai demon tribes. If we find the reincarnation of Shan Hai, wouldn't that be a brilliant plan to 'enter the tiger's den to catch the tiger's cub'?" I analyzed.
This was originally Yao Yao's plan: to use their own methods against them.
