Xuan Li was a smart man. He followed Sui Xue's gaze and understood instantly.
"You want to poison me?"
Xuan Li chuckled.
"But the method of poisoning is also very sophisticated, right? How to ensure secrecy, and how to ensure a sure kill? Or, how to ensure that Wan Shanhan is protected while killing others?"
Sui Xue raised her eyebrows, a gleam in her eyes.
"Well, there is a way, of course."
Sui Xue snapped her fingers, motioning him to come closer.
After hearing this, Xuan Li's pupils suddenly shrank, and he said in surprise: "You want to..."
Sui Xue curled her lips and nodded.
As the saying goes, you can't get a tiger cub without risking it.
Sui Xue’s idea is also very simple.
Since the person the other party actually wants to deal with is Sui Xue, and Wan Shanhan is just a cover, then wouldn't it be fine if I just follow their wishes and exchange myself for Wan Shanhan?
When Xuan Li heard this, his face changed and he gave Sui Xue a slap with his finger.
"What are you thinking, trading your life for another's?"
Sui Xue cried out "Ouch", covered her head and pouted.
"I'm not committing suicide. I'm trying to lower their guard, and..."
The corners of her lips moved, but she didn't say the second half of the sentence.
The unfinished second half of the sentence is——
It also allows me to be carefree and no longer worry, and thus no longer hesitate about anything.
Xuan Li lowered his eyes, pretending not to notice the strangeness in Sui Xue's eyes, and said as if mocking her.
"Lower your defenses? I think you should strengthen them."
"Who in their right mind would want to exchange their life for another's?"
“Most things that happen are extraordinary. They are either great stupidity or great conspiracy.”
Xuan Li sighed.
"I've fought Ming Zhao before, and I can tell you for sure that he will definitely suspect you of having a big hand and will therefore strengthen his defenses against you."
A meal of snow.
Her eyes darkened.
When I looked up again, my eyes had returned to their former depth and clarity.
"I know everything you said."
Sui Xue paused.
"Just, when I think of it."
"When I think about him having to experience the feeling of being abandoned again, I feel very sad."
Xuan Li was stunned.
But Sui Xue looked up with a faint smile on her face.
"I think the reason why someone like him respects destiny so much is probably because there's nothing else he can trust except destiny."
"As for me."
"I wanted to be one of the things he believed in."
In this case, when he faces his inevitable dead end future.
My heart will not be so cold.
It is always better to have someone accompany you than to go over mountains and rivers alone.
Xuan Li looked at the serious expression of the person in front of him, and felt a little uncomfortable for no reason, and his tone was also somewhat resentful.
"What about you? Are you just going to die like this?"
"I remember you weren't so..."
Xuanli chose his words carefully.
"Such a person with a great holy heart."
Sui Xue was not annoyed, but just looked at him seriously.
"Yes, I'm not a person with a big heart, but when it comes to those important people in life, it's okay to risk my life occasionally, right?"
She downplayed it.
"Besides, I'm not stupid."
"I may not be able to escape unscathed."
Xuan Li was silent.
After a long time, he sighed.
Said in a bad tone.
"Indeed, your death would be of great benefit to my snake tribe. Logically, I hope that your fox tribe will become more and more chaotic, and it would be best if you were all gone."
Sui Xue saw that he was being hypocritical, but she didn't expose it.
"Okay, I have to go find Wan Shanhan now. I think your Snake Tribe still has some work to do, right?"
"Go back quickly."
She waved to Xuan Li.
Xuan Li frowned, his lips moved slightly, wanting to say something, but felt that he had no right to do so.
He felt a little irritated and his brows furrowed deeper.
Forget it, if she wants to risk her life, let her go.
It doesn’t matter if I die, no, dying is the best.
Why am I so nervous? I act like I care about her.
What does he care about?
Thinking of this, Xuan Li snorted and turned away.
After walking more than ten steps away, he sighed and looked back.
Sui Xue was also stunned. She was planning to walk in the opposite direction, but she saw Xuan Li stopped again.
Under the moonlight, Xuan Li was dressed in black, but he gave people an inexplicable strong feeling.
With a "whoosh" sound.
He threw a snake-head dagger over.
Sui Xue was quick-eyed and quick-handed. He caught the cold light reflected from the dagger blade, tapped his toes lightly, and jumped up to catch it.
"It's poisoned."
"It can be used in emergencies."
"but……"
His low voice paused and he changed the subject.
"But be careful, don't be stupid enough to hurt yourself."
Listening to his awkward concern, Sui Xue couldn't help but chuckle, carefully put the dagger into her sleeve, and said thank you.
Xuan Li racked his brains for a long time and thought of a reason before he finally came up with one.
"Thank me for what."
"I just think you have something to offer, so I'm just trying to help you."
Then he added.
"Once you die, this commander will have to find allies again to deal with the civil unrest among the Dark Ravens."
After saying that, he sighed, feeling an inexplicable heat in his heart, and turned away from Sui Xue's sight in an almost fleeing manner.
After returning to the snake tribe.
Xuan Li sat in front of the study, silent.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that he was very worried, so no one came forward to disturb him.
Only the spy who came to report last time dared to step forward and ask.
