Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Feng Jinhai frowned: "Are you trying to sow discord between me and He Sheng?"
"No, I was just wondering why he wanted to kill someone with a borrowed knife."
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"It was clearly a matter of sending you to your death, but they left you behind. If this isn't sending you to your death, what else could it be?"
“…”
Feng Jinhai looked at Xiao Chen and said nothing.
"You don't admit that you are targeting me? Haha, you think it's very secretive, but who doesn't know about your little affair with the Holy See of Light?"
Xiao Chen said with a smile.
"you……"
Feng Jinhai’s eyes widened. How could he know?
Then he looked at Fatty Chen. Does the Dragon Emperor also know?
"Haha, isn't it surprising? It's not that we didn't know, we just didn't want to cause unrest."
Fatty Chen was also somewhat pleased with himself.
“…”
Feng Jinhai felt uneasy. Not many people in the Supreme Palace knew about this.
Even he only knew this after he took a half-step into the innate realm.
Unexpectedly, [Dragon Emperor] and Xiao Chen knew about it.
"The Holy See of Light wants to kill me. Since they can't send any experts, they let your Supreme Palace deal with me... In my opinion, the Supreme Palace is also being used as a weapon by the Holy See of Light."
Xiao Chen laughed mockingly.
"And you. He Sheng knew it was difficult to kill me, but he still kept you alive. If he didn't have a grudge against you, why would he do that?"
"Xiao Chen, it's useless for you to instigate."
Feng Jinhai said coldly.
"You know clearly whether I am trying to instigate you or not."
Xiao Chen smiled.
“I think your relationship with He Sheng is not that good… You are half-step innate, and he is also half-step innate. He is the deputy palace master, and you are just an elder. Can you accept that? Or, he is the deputy palace master, and seeing that you are also half-step innate, he is afraid that you will seize power from him, so he wants to use me to kill you.”
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Feng Jinhai kept a cold face and said nothing.
But the other person's face changed. How could Xiao Chen know everything?
His reaction caught Xiao Chen's attention and it seemed that he was right.
"Fifth Elder, do you think you can kill me?"
Xiao Chen asked.
"cannot."
Feng Jinhai shook his head.
"So... I didn't do anything in Longhai."
"Hmm? Haha, it seems you are not unaware of He Sheng's thoughts."
Xiao Chen was stunned for a moment, then he laughed.
"He kept you here, wanting to use me to kill you, and you... he is the deputy palace master, you have to obey his orders, and you had to stay, but you never made any move, obviously you were dealing with him."
"Xiao Chen, I have no intention of becoming your enemy. I will head south in a few days... This time, the Cave Paradise is my main destination, so He Sheng can't let me stay in Longhai forever, otherwise he won't be able to explain himself when he returns! Unless you kill me, I will leave sooner or later!"
Feng Jinhai looked at Xiao Chen and said slowly.
"Haha, it seems like you all know what's going on."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"However, I am worried about you staying in Longhai. After all, you are only half a step away from the innate..."
"Is it really half a step to innateness?"
Fatty Chen looked at Feng Jinhai with some surprise.
Feng Jinhai ignored Fatty Chen and looked at Xiao Chen: "So what do you want?"
"How about we work together?"
Xiao Chen asked.
"cooperate??"
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Feng Jinhai was stunned for a moment.
"How to cooperate?"
"I can help you kill He Sheng, and even help you get an opportunity in the blessed land."
Xiao Chen looked at Feng Jinhai and said.
"Although you are half a step ahead, if there is a chance, let's not talk about whether He Sheng will give it to you. Even if he does, I'm afraid it won't be yours alone! So, cooperate with me, I will help you kill He Sheng. Once He Sheng dies, you will be the leader of the people in the Supreme Palace! When the time comes, you will have the final say on how to distribute the opportunities and what to say when you return."
“…”
Feng Jinhai's expression changed several times. He really didn't expect that Xiao Chen would have the idea of cooperating with him.
Fatty Chen was also surprised. Want to cooperate?
He looked at Xiao Chen and wanted to remind him that this old guy was not a good person. Cooperating with him was no less than courting death!
But he thought about it and held back from saying it.
Although Feng Jinhai is not a good person, this kid is not a good person either, and he is full of bad intentions.
Since this guy brought it up, he must have an idea.
"In addition to the opportunity on the Fairy Island on the Sea, you have made great contributions after He Sheng's death. When you return to the Supreme Palace, his position as the deputy palace master will probably be yours."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"Well, think about it carefully. I am very sincere."
"You and I will cooperate, what do I need to do?"
Feng Jinhai did not refuse, but asked slowly.
He knew that Xiao Chen cooperated with him not to do good things and help him kill He Sheng... Since it was a cooperation, there must be something to ask for, and there is no free lunch in the world.
"Since you are from the Supreme Palace, I don't believe you are not prepared at all. I want to see the map you mentioned just now."
Xiao Chen was very satisfied with Feng Jinhai's attitude. This was what cooperation looked like.
"In addition to the map, I also need to know what preparations your Supreme Palace has made or what you know! In addition, there is something unusual about the Fairy Island on the Sea this time, and there may be other forces going there. If you and I cooperate, it may be helpful at the critical moment!"
"You want to occupy the fairy island on the sea?"
Feng Jinhai frowned as he listened to Xiao Chen's words.
"You have quite an appetite."
"Haha, you guys at Wushang Palace don't have this idea? With you here, at least I don't worry about Wushang Palace, right? I can give you some opportunities, a win-win situation."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"Fifth Elder, think about it carefully. Since He Sheng wants to get rid of you, even if you escape this time, what about next time? Cooperate with me, you can solve this trouble, become the deputy palace master of the Supreme Palace, and get a chance!"
Feng Jinhai looked at Xiao Chen, and he had to say that he was moved.
Thinking of something, he looked at the other person.
"Haha, Fifth Elder, if you think they are in the way, I can help you deal with them."
Xiao Chen noticed Feng Jinhai's gaze and said with a smile.
"No, Fifth Elder, I am your confidant. No matter what you do, I will follow your lead!"
The man was startled and quickly expressed his loyalty.
Hearing his words, Feng Jinhai retracted his gaze and looked at Xiao Chen again: "How can I trust you?"
"Fifth Elder, I'm here. I want to have a good chat with you. I'm very sincere."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"Otherwise, you would be dead by now."
“…”
Feng Jinhai's eyelids twitched, he knew that Xiao Chen was telling the truth.
In other words, he actually had no choice about this cooperation.
If he refuses, will Xiao Chen let him go?
I'm afraid not.
"No hurry, think about it carefully."
Xiao Chen lit another cigarette.
"Just tell me before I finish this cigarette."
“…”
Feng Jinhai didn't say anything, he had his concerns.
"Oh, by the way, if you cooperate, eat this."
Xiao Chen seemed to remember something, took out a porcelain bottle and placed it on the table.
"What's this!"
Feng Jinhai looked at the porcelain bottle and frowned.
"Poison... Come on, someone introduce it to the Fifth Elder."
Xiao Chen said while smoking a cigarette.
"Let me do it."
Xiaodao smiled and introduced the Fifteen Heart-breaking Powder.
After listening to Xiao Dao's introduction, Feng Jinhai's face darkened: "Xiao Chen, is this the cooperation you mentioned?"
"Yeah, I can't let you go just based on a few words, right? What if I guessed wrong and you and He Sheng have no grudge? Wouldn't that be a big loss for me?"
Xiao Chen smiled.
"Fifth Elder, don't worry, this is all for cooperation! After the cooperation, I will give you the antidote."
"I won't eat it!"
Feng Jinhai said angrily.
"So the Fifth Elder means that he will not cooperate with me anymore? If he does not cooperate, then maybe..."
The smile on Xiao Chen's face slowly disappeared.
"You won't see the sun tomorrow."
“…”
Feng Jinhai was furious. This was naked intimidation!
Fatty Chen grinned and said, this guy must have made some preparations if he dared to cooperate with Feng Jinhai.
"Fifth Elder, I am sincere and will do what I just said."
Xiao Chen blew out a smoke ring.
"If you're worried about them, I can help you deal with them. If you're not, just let them eat together. You need help around you when you're doing things."
"Xiao Chen, do you really think you can defeat me?"
Feng Jinhai couldn't suppress his murderous intent. He had never been threatened like this before.
“I’m not going to brag to you. The number of Half-step Xiantians who have died in my hands is more than one hand can count… If I wasn’t sincere, I wouldn’t have said so much to you. I would have just defeated you and forced you to take the Fifteen Heartbreak Powder.”
Xiao Chen said lightly.
"I am sincere, so I am talking to you."
Listening to Xiao Chen's words, Feng Jinhai gritted his teeth, and the murderous intent... slowly dissipated.
He had no confidence that he could leave alive.
"Oh, by the way, we can also blame He Sheng for the Xuanyang Sect's affairs... then, it will have nothing to do with you."
Xiao Chen thought of something and spoke again.
"Look, I've thought so much about you. I've even protected your reputation."
“…”
Feng Jinhai took a few deep breaths. It was obvious that this kid had him in his grasp.
"The cigarette is almost gone."
Xiao Chen took a puff of cigarette and reminded.
"I hope you...will do what you say, otherwise I will not let you off easily even if I have to sacrifice my own life."
Feng Jinhai gritted his teeth and said this, then picked up the porcelain bottle in front of him, opened it, poured out the Fifteen Heartbreak Powder, and swallowed it.
"Me, I'll eat too."
The other person spoke quickly, fearing that if he ate slowly he would be 'dealt with'.
"What about this? Life or death?"
Xiao Chen pointed at Yin Hua on the ground and said.
"There must be a reason for me to leave Longhai."
Feng Jinhai glanced at Yin Hua and said coldly.
"Since you've betrayed me, then keeping you... is useless."
"Okay."
Xiao Chen nodded and gave the Tang sword to Feng Jinhai.
puff!
Feng Jinhai raised his hand, and the Tang sword pierced into Yin Hua's back, and blood splattered.
"You killed him."
Feng Jinhai looked at Xiao Chen and said.
"no problem."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"You killed more than a dozen people, and you all said it was me. If there's one more, I'll admit it."
