Chapter 1686: Chapter 1681: Deadly Disguise
Talking and laughing with troublemakers, interacting without true friends.
Although itâs not so absolute, as someone with a wide network, Fu Qian has always been well aware of betrayers.đŻđ»đźđđŹđźđđđ€đđđĄ.đđđ¶
A Divine Envoy with considerable experience who even entered the Night Watchmanâs highest power group.
To deal with such a character, itâs unlikely that just making a report call would be enough.
But in every situation, itâs important to think positively; dealing with such a character might actually be easier.
In this case, Chief Yuan still insisting on wanting to know the specifics of the secret is truly commendable bravery.
"Huang Zhixun?"
And it seems she has a good memory, never forgetting the names of old friends.
"He actually returned to Xi Yuanâs Huang Familyâfor a promotion?"
The personality of the old friend remains unchanged.
Almost instantly grasping the key point, clearly Yuan Shan also doesnât believe that someone like Huang Zhixun would go back just to ease homesickness.
Considering that this genius who had flourished all the way recently suffered a setback in Shangjing, and was promptly sent packing.
Now, the most likely course of action, undoubtedly, is to seek new opportunities for advancement.
"So what... didnât you say earlier that just having a slight suspicion means you canât extricate yourself? How could I have known I would encounter such a headache as soon as I came back, had I known, I wouldâve stayed two more days to watch that guy lose less moneyâ"
But even before Fu Qian could respond, Yuan Shan suddenly got drawn into lamenting by the earlier teasing, her gaze filled with extreme regret and endless regret.
"It might not be that bad."
Fu Qian patiently waited for the victim to vent for a while before speaking up to interrupt.
"Oh? How so?"
Yuan Shanâs eyes suddenly cleared up, even casually pouring tea for the strategist before sitting back to ask in detail.
"Since theyâre suspicious, isnât it going to be hard to hide your identity now... are you planning on not showing up this time?"
The more she spoke, the more her brows furrowed, evidently, in Yuan Shanâs judgment, itâs not impossible for this one to abandon the mission.
"Of course not, in the entire matter, I will still exercise the responsibility of an excellent citizen, participating throughout."
With a face full of righteousness, Fu Qian quickly alleviated the leaderâs concerns.
"Itâs just that I have confidence in making her mistake my identity, otherwise, why do you think I came here purposely?"
...
As mentioned earlier, the Evil God always does things multiple times over with one stroke.
Although I just learned her name, dealings with Lady Corin had begun much earlier.
The bullet given to Wen Li primarily aimed to increase a bit of safety, but concurrently acted as a detector.
Risking the exposure of some Abandonment King information, to detect some possible little actions.
Even this time, thanks to Wen Liâs excellent performance, whether Lady Corin even grasped the Abandonment Kingâs information is hard to say.
After all, at the time of the shooting, she probably had just started watching, even if she had the ability to traverse space, her true form might not have arrived so quickly.
More importantly, besides this potential information advantage is another pointârelying on the Popeâs gift, Grimshaw is a deadly disguise for the Superior Being.
Upon seeing Frostburnâs effect, my first reaction was the witch catering to my needs, gifting me the most suitable present.
By cloaking all Transcendent effects in a cold facade, Grimshaw, skilled in Frost Power, is a substantial source of confusion for High-level Extraordinary individuals accustomed to identifying identity by the essence of power.
Additionally, with Patchâs assistance, during the time in Xi Yuan, we maintained the persona of a magic user throughout.
So, currently, even if I just walk out like this, itâs very likely that Lady Corin would draw the conclusion of "shockingly, it really isnât the same person."
"...Are you really that confident?"
Of course, this point undoubtedly defies common sense, so much so that even the always confident Chief Yuan was momentarily speechless, needing to confirm again.
"Moreover, in this case, it sounds as though your trip here was superfluous? Knowing Wen Li is in trouble you should directly go find her, so you came here toâ"
Taking a breath, Yuan Shan had a look of sudden realization.
"Thatâs right, to confirm whether you want to know that secret or not."
Fu Qian looked gratified.
"If youâre not interested, this topic ends here, and weâll go handle Wen Liâs matter together."
"I trust Lady Corin, being overwhelmingly busy, wonât dwell excessively."
...
"Forget it, knowing one thing about Xi Yuanâs Huang Family, Iâm afraid it would be hard to suppress the curiosity..."
A long sigh almost brimming with the long history of five thousand years, and Yuan Shan waved her hand with the helplessness of being trapped by the strategist.
"Go ahead, tell me."
"As expected, the Chief is magnanimous, having you in charge of Shangjing is truly a blessing to the people."
Such an amenable good leader, Fu Qian naturally wouldnât hold back a compliment.
Though the wording was somewhat exaggerated, Yuan Shan glared over with a look nearly showing signs of regret.
But it was only for appearanceâs sake, the long sigh she let out earlier had little hesitation behind it.
"The Blood Lion didnât go alone, but brought two companions."
Fu Qian naturally did not waste time, and after helping relieve her mood, began describing the situation in Xi Yuan truthfully.
"Their objective is also clear, a certain mutation has occurred recently in the mountain behind the Huang Family manor."
"And at the same time, your Xi Yuanâs team has just been strengthened, the current person in charge was originally under Corin."
"She brought along a rag doll I mentioned, to help ensure no accidents."
"The mutation was too cunning, avoiding monitoring to silently spread chaos across the cityâ"
"Bastards!"
With a cracking sound, the cup in Yuan Shanâs hand was crushed, tea spilled all over the table.
Even though Fu Qianâs account lacked emotion, it was all too easy for her to extract infuriating information through considering the storyâs fabric.
"How chaotic?"
Of course, now was not the time to express emotions; casually tossing the broken porcelain pieces aside, Yuan Shan continued asking with a cold face.
"There were casualties among ordinary civilians, the exact count is unknown, Blood Lion and the Huang Family also suffered heavy losses... but now the situation is under control, and from here it should just be a matter of cleanup."
Fu Qian responded fluently.
"Cleanup, haha... but if this is all, it doesnât prove much, is there more?"
With a cold laugh, Yuan Shan gestured for Fu Qian to continue.
"Then the rag doll parasitized a Ms. Miranda, also a team member found by Blood Lion, and slightly joined the exploration."
Fu Qian was naturally responsive.
"... So whatâs your plan?"
After a slight pause, Yuan Shan didnât even ask Fu Qian how he knew these things, but directly switched topics.
"Would you be interested in joining Wen Li over there for some food and drink?"
To this, Fu Qian gestured toward the outside.
...
"You know, she even has a shooting range over there."
"...Okay."
