Beneath the Upper City

No one knows when it began—

But the world was split in two.

Those in the Upper City live in the sunlight, on vast lands, warm and free.

Those in the Lower City survive in a cram...

Chapter 1001: Plea

Xia Qing...

So brave!

Isn’t she afraid that after Mie Sheng is awakened, he will replace the host again and turn Bai Qiming into a weird person?

After all, this matter has a "criminal record" for Miesheng!

Or does Xia Qing have absolute confidence in Bai Qiming and think that he will not follow Su Wanjun's path?

"So? Bai Qiming... no, should I say Miesheng, has there been any change?"

Ning Fan asked.

Ma Yuxiang curled his lips: "No."

Ning Fan frowned.

Ma Yuxiang continued, "Anyway, from my perspective, Bai Qiming is not suited to extinction. Or conversely, extinction is not suitable for him."

"This is exactly the problem I discovered a few days ago. District Chief Xia... actually left two options for Bai Qiming."

Ma Yuxiang's expression became more and more interesting. It seemed that he had no dissatisfaction at all with Xia Qing using him as a pawn. Instead...

He felt that Xia Qing was the person who understood him the most.

"If Bai Qiming feels that my approach is more suitable for him, then with continuous killing, Miesheng will definitely improve quickly."

"By then, Bai Qiming will surely improve his strength rapidly, reaching a level where he can compete with you."

"On the other hand, if Bai Qiming cannot stand this kind of cruelty, it means he is not yet qualified to be in power."

Ma Yuxiang met Ning Fan's gaze and spoke slowly, "Then, let him use his Life-Destroying Technique to assist you."

To be honest, this answer made Ning Fan's heart beat wildly.

Xia Qing's plan to overturn the table was so perfect.

If Xia Qing hadn't died, Ning Fan asked himself, he might not be able to defeat her.

But on the other hand, the reason why Xia Qing figured out all the problems was because she excluded herself.

Xia Qing went to the Sandong Cooperation Zone with the determination to die.

She did this, on the one hand, to witness Su Wanjun's fall, but more importantly...

She wants to treat herself as an outsider!

Only by breaking away from her own situation can she think about all the problems more rationally.

Xia Qing is also a human being.

When people are in a situation, their judgment will be influenced by certain people or things.

Therefore, in Xia Qing's plan to overturn the table, even she herself...

It's all a chess piece.

Ning Fan lowered his head and pondered for a long time.

Finally, he thought of a question.

"You came to kill me today because you think Bai Qiming is going to take the second path?"

Ma Yuxiang was stunned.

Ning Fan continued, "You didn't think it would succeed today, did you?"

"Not really."

Ma Yuxiang smiled with some pride: "I thought the success rate might not be very high, but I didn't think it would definitely fail."

"What if you succeed?"

Ning Fan asked again.

Ma Yuxiang seemed stumped by the question.

He had told Pei Hongshen before that if Ning Fan died, he would close the connection between Area B and Area A and recuperate here.

However, just like the problem Ning Fan discovered with Pei Hongshen before, there is a biggest loophole here.

That is Lin Song and the three [Thousand Souls Level] in his hands.

If Ning Fan and Guan Shanyue were really dead, would Ma Yuxiang be able to control them?

Ma Yuxiang can now control a certain degree of discourse power because of the checks and balances.

Ning Fan and the others are still alive, so all Lin Song needs to consider is how to deal with Ning Fan.

But when this biggest threat no longer exists, how can Ma Yuxiang, a [Thousand Souls Level], have the final say in Region B?

Could it be possible that Ma Yuxiang could not have thought of this?

Therefore, even if Ma Yuxiang denied it, Ning Fan knew that he was lying.

Ma Yuxiang, be content.

Even if he died, people in the lower city would still remember that there was once a man named Ma Yuxiang who led an army of 200,000 to defeat District C and cause chaos in District B.

He knew that from the moment he accepted the table-turning plan, it would be impossible for him to return to Yecheng.

Even though he has confessed so much to Ning Fan now, Ning Fan will never take him back.

variable.

Ma Yuxiang is not a pushover, and Ning Fan will not let such a person disrupt the hard-earned peace.

At the same time, there must be another reason why Ma Yuxiang did this.

Ning Fan's phone rang at this moment.

"Is it Bai Qiming?"

Ning Fan looked at the unfamiliar number and asked Ma Yuxiang before answering.

Ma Yuxiang was not surprised at all, but smiled and said, "It should be."

Ning Fan answered the call.

"Commander Ning."

The other party's voice was hoarse: "I am Bai Qiming."

"Hello."

Ning Fan responded calmly.

"Commander Ma...is going to harm you."

Bai Qiming hesitated a bit when he said this: "He has already left the Southern Defense Force. I think it is very likely that he is going after you."

Ning Fan didn't tell him the current situation, but instead asked, "Aren't you from the Southern Defense Force? Why did you tip me off?"

"If you die, there will be chaos in the lower city."

Bai Qiming said seriously, "You should know that Commander Ma wants to make me the official and replace you, but to be honest, I don't think I can do better than you."

"Even so, if you tell me this news now, doesn't that mean you've betrayed the Southern Defense Force and Ma Yuxiang?"

Ning Fan asked again.

After a moment of silence, Bai Qiming said in a deep voice, "This is what I want to say."

"Can you please spare Commander Ma's life, considering that I informed you in advance?"

Ning Fan looked at Ma Yuxiang again.

Ma Yuxiang smiled bitterly, as if he had expected Bai Qiming to say this.
