Hmm?
Fu Qian looked at Ji Yicheng, whose expression had drastically changed, and deeply felt the fickleness of human nature.
Just a moment ago, he appeared desperate to survive, but in almost an instant, he had seized control of the situation, full of momentum.
At the same time, the surging storm and thunder were also closing in.
“It’s you!”
A somewhat familiar voice came through, as the Demigod Sybil stood there, looking at Fu Qian with a wary face.
It was indeed these two, their vitality is really tenacious!
“Hello, you two!”
Fu Qian turned his head to greet Sybil and Kelson, who was beside her.
These two had escaped quite quickly from there as well; it seemed that after he had left, they hadn’t encountered too much trouble.
Of course, Sybil’s complexion was clearly not too good, and her state was quite unstable.
She didn’t seem this way when he made his move; probably she had been accidentally wounded by a colleague.
That wasn’t surprising, given that Kelson’s last-minute outburst was obviously something even he couldn’t fully control, and it was all too normal for that to cause collateral damage.
The only consolation was that her emotional state seemed to have returned to normal.
“Ji Yicheng, why are you here?”
But even in her poor state, Sybil was still very professional, remaining cautious of Fu Qian and also turning her attention to Ji Yicheng.
Clearly, as competitors, they were very familiar with each other.
“Did you cause what just happened there?”
Before Ji Yicheng could reply, her eyes widened as she quickly realized something.
“Yes.”
Ji Yicheng’s response was brief and honest.
“Isn’t it quite normal for someone in my position to do such things? And none of your people died. Besides, are you sure this is the time to be worrying about that?”
He pointed at Fu Qian.
“This person in front of you is very familiar to you, isn’t he?”
More than familiar!
Even though she knew Ji Yicheng was trying to provoke, Sybil couldn’t help but take another look at Fu Qian, recalling the scene from not long ago.
At the time, she was in a peculiar state and didn’t react much.
But once they got away, the accumulated fear came flooding back and was difficult to let go of.
“How do you know that we’re very familiar with him?”
Sybil was momentarily at a loss for words, but Kelson, who was next to her, suddenly spoke up, asking slowly.
“So it was indeed you hiding in the shadows then?”
“The incident in the underground ruins, was it really a conspiracy?”
Not surprisingly, the one who held sway over Sybil was much quicker on the uptake.
“Yes, that was me.”
This famously hot-tempered Demigod is quite calm today, isn’t he!
Ji Yicheng sneered as he opened his hand to reveal a beam of bright light.
“Whether it’s a conspiracy or not isn’t important. The fact is, I saved your life, and hers.”
“At this moment, I think you should be able to prioritize urgency.”
“This is also why I led you here. I figured you might have a score to settle with this person.”
After that, he turned his head to look at Fu Qian, his face unable to hide his satisfaction.
“It’s quite dazzling, isn’t it? This is the true light of life and hope.”
“I told you, you should have killed me directly.”
“You might be strong, but now you’ve gained two demigod enemies.”
“Do you think in this situation, you can still stop me?”
His reliance, of course, was still the Great Summoning Spell.
Looking at the fully revived Ji Yicheng, Fu Qian inwardly sighed.
He had made such an exaggerated visual effect before, and to keep it from being noticed, he had even put on a full performance.
He had been somewhat looking forward to something big, but it was just to send a flare?
If you had held back a powerful move, I would have considered you a real man.
Fu Qian was quite disappointed for a moment.
“So, your hope is that we’ll attack him to hold him off while you make your escape?”
At this point, Sybil finally understood Ji Yicheng’s intentions.
No wonder, just as trouble started over there, such an exuberant essence was emitted here, as if afraid that others wouldn’t detect it.
This guy was doing it on purpose.
“`
“It’s not about helping me… This person before us almost sent you all to heaven, and you still think of dealing with me first under such circumstances?”
Ji Yicheng let out a sibilant laugh, very confident about how things were unfolding.
…
Sybil was momentarily at a loss for words and subconsciously looked towards Kelson.
“Indeed, it’s not that serious.”
Kelson didn’t deny it and nodded as he spoke.
“But there’s a problem, if he could have sent us to heaven before, what’s stopping him now?”
“Why would we court death?”
…
Kelson’s reaction clearly caught Ji Yicheng off guard, and in the next moment, he suddenly realized something, and his expression drastically changed.
This brother, you’re really not in the right state, are you!
Fu Qian stood by with great interest, watching Ji Yicheng’s expressions change again.
Unlike him, Fu Qian’s focus had always been on Kelson.
And because of this, he noticed something off about Kelson right away.
Sybil had already recovered, yet he still seemed to be in that saintly state.
That shouldn’t be!
With his strength, he shouldn’t be that deeply affected.
What had happened inside after I left?
“Kelson, you—”
At this moment, not only Ji Yicheng but also Sybil wore a face filled with shock and uncertainty.
After escaping the ruins, she did feel something weird about her colleague, but since Kelson had kept silent, she thought he was just angry about the setback they had inside.
Now it seemed that was far from the whole story!
With dangerous enemies, treacherous opponents, and a colleague whose mind was not right, Sybil felt her sense of security vanish, and her momentum plummet drastically.
“So?”
Of course, the all-in Ji Yicheng was in an even worse state than her.
He had thought he secured a slim chance at survival, only for things to take such an unexpected turn.
Kelson, who was always known for his fiery temper, turned out to be the most restrained one of all.
“So I don’t think it’s meaningful for us to get involved right now.”
Kelson’s tone was calm and definitive.
“Bringing me back to Siren would be meaningful enough for you all, wouldn’t it?”
But Ji Yicheng wasn’t giving up.
“In dealing with the Ji Family, you will gain many more advantages, and I assure you I will offer no resistance and will follow you into the base.”
This?
For a moment, Sybil seemed slightly tempted.
“No, thanks.”
Unfortunately, Kelson was still shaking his head.
“I realized not long ago that Siren is no longer suitable for me.”
Fuck me…
Finally, Ji Yicheng’s expression collapsed.
However, Kelson didn’t pay him any more attention and turned to look at Fu Qian.
“We’re not planning to be your enemy, we will retreat and keep a safe distance, just to ensure the order around us.”
“Of course, if you still don’t trust us, we have no further means to prove ourselves.”
“I believe you.”
Fu Qian waved his hand nonchalantly.
…
“You knew all along that Kelson had become like this?”
With Kelson not engaging, Sybil had no courage to start a fight, and as the two of them walked away, they took with them Ji Yicheng’s fading hopes.
When he turned to face Fu Qian, he was almost roaring.
“How could I possibly know? I just knew you were luring someone here, and I was curious, that’s all.”
Fu Qian shook his head.
“Aren’t you afraid that things will backfire and I really run away?”
The way Fu Qian thought was clearly driving Ji Yicheng crazy.
“No worries, the intelligence is more important, your life isn’t that valuable.”
