Chapter 940 - Relentless Pursuit! (2/2)
“Are you really not afraid of death?” asked the officer.
“How can I not be afraid? I just know that even if I die, it won’t be here and now. If the person in charge of this competition hadn’t been you, I wouldn’t be here at all because I would not have said those words,” replied Bai Xiaofei nonchalantly.
“What do you mean?!” the officer’s voice had a hint of vigilance. If Bai Xiaofei said something wrong, she’d definitely kill to silence him.
“You’re from the capital, aren’t you? Unlike those in Indigo City, your knowledge and experience will never allow you to do something detrimental to Moonlight. If I die, Moonlight may lose its entire northern area!” declared Bai Xiaofei solemnly.
Anyone would regard this as big talk, but the officer was persuaded.
It was not that she thought Bai Xiaofei had the ability to turn the tables. It was that what he said about the border was very likely to happen as it was barely holding up…
“Who on earth are you?” asked the officer, intently staring at Bai Xiaofei. She refused to believe that he was only some ordinary servant.
“My servant Lil’ Bai, of course. Why, you can’t accept it?” Tan Xin sprang up. If she let Bai Xiaofei answer this question, it would definitely be problematic.
“A servant has such an ability to deduce?”
“So? I raised him well!” Tan Xin fearlessly retorted.
Because nothing else, this dungeon could only limit puppet masters and could not seal her ability. In other words, she could bring Bai Xiaofei’s group to leave as long as she wanted to.
“Then tell me, how did you raise him?” The officer sneered.
Meanwhile, the men had been struck silly by the sudden turn of the conversation.
Why are you two suddenly bickering?! Shouldn’t we be talking about business? Is this how a woman’s brain works?!
“Let him roam freely!!” roared Tan Xin in a domineering manner.
Bai Xiaofei nearly vomited blood. What the hell is that?!
“I can take you to the imperial city, but there is one thing you must swear to!” The officer turned to Bai Xiaofei. For some reason, she felt that the one with the authority to decide was not Tan Xin, but him.
“Don’t worry, I won’t make trouble again. After all, you can’t guarantee that you will be able to spare my life next time,” Bai Xiaofei stated a fact.
The officer snorted and turned toward the exit. “Someone will pick you up later, but I will announce that you have been put to death, so it’s best you keep quiet!” Her voice echoed in the cell as she left.
Bai Xiaofei shook his head and sighed. _Still holding grudges… Ah, a woman is a woman after all!
“How do you know so many things about the border?” Tan Xin asked.
The four teammates also looked curious. As home servants, they knew next to nothing about matters outside Indigo City.
“If I said I guessed it all, would you believe me?” Bai Xiaofei chuckled and lay down on the ground.
Perhaps the capital of Moonlight will be quite interesting!
