Xu Qingyuan's body stiffened slightly and his throat moved. Then he looked towards the source of the sound and saw Fang Yin with a smile on his face.
"It's you."
I have to say that Xu Qingyuan's expression softened a bit when he saw that the person coming was Fang Yin.
He was worried that the person coming was Lu Li or Song Bocheng, so he might not be able to escape today.
But since it is Fang Yin, it means there is still the possibility of communication.
When Zangshengzhi Fangyin was still in Tianbu, he had always been a relatively gentle person.
Although many times, the side shown by a person may be just a disguise and an illusion, but based on Xu Qingyuan's understanding of Fang Yin, he knew that Fang Yin was a very rational person.
Sometimes, being rational means being able to communicate.
"It's me. Why, you seem a little surprised?"
Fang Yin looked at Xu Qingyuan, smiled faintly, and then walked behind the desk where Xu Qingyuan turned his head. After sitting down, he stretched out his hand and motioned for Xu Qingyuan to sit down.
Xu Qingyuan's eyes flashed slightly. After hesitating for less than a moment, he sat across from Fang Yin and quietly put the metal ball inside the jade slip.
This is his bargaining chip for further negotiations. If Fang Yin takes it away directly, he will lose the qualification to negotiate.
Facing the best messenger of the Heavenly Ministry, Xu Qingyuan must be 100% alert and not dare to show any signs of neglect.
"It's not an accident, I just didn't expect you to find me so quickly."
After sitting opposite Fang Yin, Xu Qingyuan calmed down a little and said with emotion: "It seems that even if you leave Tianbu, you will still be the best among us."
That's not a compliment.
Xu Qingyuan still has some confidence.
This safe house is no less secretive than Tianbu's branches in some state capitals. Even if Tianbu's resources are used to investigate, it is impossible to lock the target in just a few days.
And how long did Fang Yincai leave the Ministry of Education? In less than a day, he was able to find this house and find himself. No matter how much Xu Qingyuan didn't want to admit it, he had to admit that Fang Yin was indeed the best among them.
Fang Yin crossed his fingers and placed them gently on the table. He did not respond to Xu Qingyuan's 'compliment', but stared at the light golden jade slip held in Xu Qingyuan's hand, "You probably wanted to confirm something just now, why don't you continue?" ?β
Xu Qingyuan didn't speak, but he couldn't help but curse in his heart. You are sitting in front of me like a thorn, how can I continue
"Don't worry, I'm not very interested in your secrets. And I'm not here to hold you hostage."
Fang Yin's words made Xu Qingyuan's expression freeze on his face.
He hesitated for a moment and said with a wry smile: "Are you coming to kill me?"
Fang Yin did not answer, but Xu Qingyuan seemed to already know the answer, and he seemed to have relieved some of his burdens. He suddenly relaxed and asked with a smile: "I didn't expect that you would be the one to kill me."
"Song Bocheng..."
Xu Qingyuan originally wanted to say, 'Why didn't Song Bocheng come to kill me?', but when he thought about it carefully, he suddenly understood something, and his smile became more bitter and said: "Yes, Suifeng made this guy probably hide his strength. Song Bocheng went to deal with him, Itβs more secure.β
"Besides, Song Bocheng is a grandmaster, and the combat power of a grandmaster should not be wasted on me."
Xu Qingyuan seemed to be analyzing the deployment of this 'killing game', his tone was very calm, and there was no panic at all about impending death.
He had no intention of begging Fang Yin for mercy.
Whether it was self-esteem or giving up the useless struggle, Xu Qingyuan knew Fang Yin's character. When he decided to kill someone, nothing he said could change his mind.
But Fang Yin looked at Xu Qingyuan silently. It wasn't until Xu Qingyuan put down the jade slip in his hand that he said, "I came to see you not because Suifeng is stronger than you, nor because Song Bocheng's combat prowess is incompetent. It's wasted on you. But because you are the most sober among us."
"Am I the most sober one?"
Xu Qingyuan seemed to have heard something funny and couldn't help laughing: "I am truly honored to receive this comment from the mouth of the sentient being."
Fang Yin shook his head, "Although you are responsible for the position of the Evil Envoy, I know that you are very cautious and vigilant. You are not as wavering as the Secret Envoy, nor are you as thoughtful as the Sui Feng Envoy."
"You have your plans, we all have them. Having plans is not a bad thing, and during this period of time, your hands were not stained with the blood of your colleagues. From this point of view alone, I am willing to meet you in person, Give you a chance to choose."
"Opportunity to choose..."
"You want me to betray you again and take refuge with Lu Li?" Xu Qingyuan chuckled: "Fang Yin, why didn't I see that you were such a naive person before? Lu Li has sent people to kill us now, even if I take refuge, Does he still dare to believe it?"
"This is a helpless move. I believe you know better than anyone how complicated the situation in Tianbu is. Not counting other envoys, the rebellion of the two leaders alone is enough to cause us great trouble."
"Besides, you've discovered the weirdness of the Divine Religion a long time ago, haven't you?"
Fang Yin was not in a hurry to take action.
In other words, Fang Yin did not really want to kill Xu Qingyuan from the beginning.
Among the three messengers, Sui Feng, Jue Mi, and Sin, Sui Feng seems to be upright and loyal, but is deeply scheming. Jue Mi made Zhou Jing even more vacillating than being secretive. No one knew what this woman was thinking. Only the evil villain, the 'True Villain', is actually the most sober among the three, and the one who knows best about analyzing the pros and cons.
When it comes to religious issues, Suifengji will only listen to the opinions of the big leader, and this person is basically not allowed to stay. Jue Mi's attitude is ambiguous, and Fang Yin also has reservations about her. But only Xu Qingyuan, Fang Yin believes that he will not be willing to be manipulated at will by the gods and the big leader teaming up. Therefore, Xu Qingyuan is also the only target that Fang Yin wants to try to win.
Of course, Fang Yin had already asked Lu Li and Song Bocheng for their opinions before taking action.
Lu Li was naturally helpless about this, while Song Bocheng was somewhat opposed to it, but not too fiercely.
Because Song Bocheng also recognized Fang Yin's judgment.
Among Tianbu's old acquaintances, only Xu Qingyuan still has the possibility of staying awake. If they can win over Xu Qingyuan, including Zhou Jing who is hiding in secret waiting for the result, their hope of successfully taking back Tianbu will be even greater after this undercurrent.
The possible resistance from Tianbu will not be as fierce as they expected.
"Is that all you want to say?"
Xu Qingyuan said: "Although I am afraid of death, I don't want to die, but what we are talking about now, if I am not careful, it may be worse than death."
"Although the big leader has gone crazy, I am still very afraid of his methods."
He said he was scared, but there was no hint of fear on Xu Qingyuan's face.
In his eyes, the big leader might just be a 'lunatic' who was deceived by the divine religion. He believed those lies about the coming of gods to the world. He thought that after surrendering to the divine religion, when the divine religion turned the Zhenwu Domain into a paradise for the gods, he would swallow the sky. The Holy Kingdom will then be able to follow the gods and establish the Kingdom of God on earth.
What I have to say is that the leader of the Tianbu is indeed very loyal to the Heaven-Swallowing Holy Kingdom.
Even if he is bewitched by the divine religion, what he wants is still the interests of the Holy Kingdom of Devouring Heaven.
But the methods of the divine religion were too clumsy, so clumsy that Xu Qingyuan believed that no one with any sense would believe their lies.
"There is nothing to be afraid of, the big leader. After today, he will be dead." Fang Yin said calmly: "That's why I came to see you. I hope you can make the right choice. This is the only thing I can get for you. , and also the last chance.β
"You want to kill him?"
Xu Qingyuan raised his eyebrows at first, then shook his head and said, "If you can't do it, you can't kill him even if Lu Li takes action himself."
"The Divine Religion attaches great importance to him, and it is impossible not to prevent you from assassinating him. There are more than five grandmasters protecting him by his side, and there are probably top-level great envoys secretly. Once someone wants to assassinate the great leader, then A top grandmaster will take action."
"Unless the Divine Religion suddenly abandons the Tianbu, otherwise..."
Speaking of this, Xu Qingyuan's expression changed slightly, as if he had thought of something, and he suddenly looked at Fang Yin.
