Zhang Yufei looked at Chen Qiang lying in a pool of blood and sighed inwardly.

If only he weren't dead, maybe we could have gotten some information out of him.

A woman's intuition told her that things were definitely not that simple.

Chen Li took a deep breath and sneered, "My cousin is dead, and even the cook in charge of making the porridge was killed. This Qi Yue is just making things up. There's no way to verify it now that he's dead!"

He looked at Qi Yue coldly and said, "Although evolved beings receive preferential treatment, killing so many people for no reason, especially since my cousin is the group leader, Qi Yue, you can't escape punishment!"

"Furthermore, whether you have concealed your identity as an evolved being is still a mystery! This matter will naturally be judged by the knights of the Punishment Hall!"

Qi Yue remained silent, his eyes showing no fear, but instead coldly staring at Chen Li.

He wished he could kill Chen Qiang's protector, Chen Li, as well.

Unfortunately, he was too weak.

Even though I suddenly became an evolved being last night due to excessive grief.

However, the gap between him and veteran evolver Chen Li is still too large.

Zhang Yufei glanced at Qi Yue. If, as she suspected, there was more to the poisoning than met the eye, then Qi Yue was likely in grave danger.

The Chosen Church treats Chinese people extremely harshly.

Unless one reaches the strength of Bai Wu, powerful enough that people like Adam would want to go to great lengths to win him over.

Ordinary evolved beings like Qi Yue are simply not worth the attention of Adam and his ilk.

Now, only Vice-Bishop Nika or Bai Wu can save Qi Yue.

Nika has already helped too many Chinese people in the Chosen Ones, and Zhang Yufei doesn't want to trouble her with this matter.

Therefore, there is only one possibility...

Zhang Yufei once again set her sights on Bai Wu.

Each knight can have two followers at the Evolver level.

Zhang Yufei gritted her teeth as she thought of Bai Wu's ruthlessness towards ordinary compatriots.

A hint of hatred flashed in his eyes.

Since you are heartless, and since you told me to make my own decisions.

Then I will grant your wish!

After thinking it through, Zhang Yufei looked at Qi Yue and said with a smile, "Qi Yue, would you like to become the White Knight's follower? If you are, I can take you to see the White Knight."

Upon hearing Zhang Yufei's words, Chen Li and the other Chosen Ones all changed their expressions.

A hint of envy flashed in the eyes of those chosen believers.

According to the doctrine of the Chosen Ones, each knight can have a maximum of two followers!

Therefore, every knight is very careful in choosing his followers, and will definitely choose those who are exceptionally talented or the most trusted of his confidants!

Once you become a knight's attendant, especially a top knight like Bai Wu, your status will skyrocket!

Qi Yue had been in Tianxuan City for a long time and was already very clear about these rules and regulations.

He instantly realized that this extremely beautiful woman was saving him!

Thinking of his sister's appearance before her death, Qi Yue, who had originally been determined to die, was suddenly filled with boundless hatred and a desire to live.

He wanted to keep living!

Avenge Qi Wen!

He said earnestly, "I am willing to go see Lord White Knight."

Zhang Yufei nodded in satisfaction, then looked at Chen Li and the other Chosen Ones, and smiled, "What? Are you coming with me to Lord White Knight's villa? Or are you planning to take his entourage away from Lord White Knight?"

Chen Li forced a smile, lowered his head, and said in a somber tone, "I wouldn't dare."

A hint of mockery flashed in Zhang Yufei's eyes as she left with Qi Yue.

Chen Li glared hatefully in the direction Zhang Yufei and Qi Yue had left.

After a long silence, he suddenly shouted at the remaining burly men, "Hurry up and carry their bodies away for a proper burial! If you don't do it right, I'll take your lives!"

The burly men seemed to snap out of their daze and dared not be negligent in the slightest.

Chen Li and the other Chosen Ones left the scene.

Alone in a secluded corner, Chen Li took out a walkie-talkie that had been pre-tuned and respectfully said, "Lord Hoss, the mutated plant you gave me is extremely effective. After consuming it, the weaker the constitution, the higher the mortality rate. Strong young adults only experience stomach aches for one night and are fine the next day..."

“Well done, I will praise your achievements to the knight.”

Chen Li smiled ingratiatingly and said, "Thank you, Lord Hoss!"

After a pause, Chen Li said cautiously, "However, Lord Hoss, there was an evolved human... In the end, I wanted to capture that evolved human named Qi Yue, but a woman who claimed to be the White Knight saved him and was preparing to take him to the White Knight's villa so that the White Knight would take him as his follower."

There was silence on the other end of the walkie-talkie. After a few seconds, the other person asked in a deep voice, "The White Knight's woman? And an evolved being at that?"

Chen Li said cautiously, "Yes, Lord Hoss. Also, that woman seems to be working for the archdeacon."

"What does that woman look like?"

As Chen Li recalled, she described, "She was about 1.7 meters tall, had a great figure, shoulder-length hair, an oval face, and was very beautiful, though somewhat aloof. It was the first time I had ever seen such a beautiful Chinese woman in Tianxuan City..."

"I understand, you can come back now."

"Yes, Lord Hoss!"

Chen Li breathed a sigh of relief after putting the walkie-talkie away.

Unexpectedly, such a simple matter first attracted the attention of the vice-bishop, and now it has also brought up the White Knight's woman.

Even my cousin is dead.

I should have known better than to volunteer for this task from Lord Hoss.

However, Lord Hoss is the attendant of the third-ranked Zelin Knight, which means that this task was assigned by the Zelin Knight.

My cousin's death was worthwhile.

The Cult of the Chosen has nearly a thousand members, but only a dozen or so knights, and a total of just over 30 knights' followers.

If you want to stand out, you always have to pay a price.

A mansion in Tianxuan City.

With a solemn expression, Hoss walked up to a tall white man who was sipping red wine and said earnestly in Spanish, "Sir Knight, the final drug trial plan you assigned has been completed perfectly!"

"However, Zhang Yufei, the first handmaid under the Vice-Bishop, went to the ant area today to investigate this poisoning incident."

"Furthermore, she has actually become an evolved being and even claims to be the woman of the White Knight."

Zelin's previously relaxed expression froze, and he frowned as he asked, "Is it true?"

"It shouldn't be wrong," Hoss said earnestly.

Zelin pondered for a few seconds, then sneered, "This Zhang Yufei is indeed a menace! Even when she was just an ordinary person, she tried every possible way to cause trouble. If the vice-bishop hadn't warned us several times not to lay a hand on her, she would have been dead countless times over!"

"I never expected her to be so lucky and become an evolved being. And she deliberately used her body to win over the White Knight! She really will stop at nothing!"

Hoss asked cautiously, "Sir Knight, what should we do now?"

Zelin smiled and said, "Now that the experiment has been a complete success, there's no need to rush. We have plenty of time. Besides, given the character of that White Knight, he might not let Zhang Yufei run wild."
