Chapter 164.2: F*cking Retard (2/2)

If he had planned to torture her simply to destroy her insolent attitude, just starving her for another hour would be effective enough.

But the fact that he wanted to use the interrogation room meant that he definitely wanted to force her to tell him something. And it was something he knew she wouldn’t give up easily!

Calm down, calm down. What exactly did she have that was beneficial to Xi Qiuyi?

The Alliance Head Command Tablet?

No, that’s something that Elder Yu would want.

Could it be some sort of secret?

That didn’t seem right. All the secrets she knew about were regarding Jianghu matters. There was nothing that was related to the imperial court ah!

Wait, the imperial court?

Baili Yu?

Tang Doudou seemed to have realized something and she immediately shouted, “Xi Qiuyi! You just want to get info on him, right? I’ll tell you all I know!”

Xi Qiuyi immediately re-appeared in her sight. Liu Yan stopped trying to drag her out and stood to the side.

“You sure are smart, to be able to guess my motive this quickly,” said Xi Qiuyi in a tone that contained other meanings.

Tang Doudou swallowed with difficulty. Her throat was uncomfortably dry. “Haha, it’s such an obvious matter, it was easy to guess.”

After all, the only relation she had to the imperial court was Baili Yu.

He was the Resplendent Prince, with wealth and influence that overwhelmed the world. Any emperor would find it difficult to sleep peacefully with this type of person around.

So there was no need to even mention the ambitious little princes!

Baili Yu, an existence that was like a fish bone stuck in the throat of emperors, was capable of overthrowing them, and could definitely be used to exchange for an emperor’s appreciation. His aid would be greatly beneficial in the struggle for the throne. If he could also get rid of the martial arts alliance and cause all the sects on the Jianghu to become like scattered sand, never to threaten the imperial court again, that would be even better!

That’s why everyone knew that Elder Yu and Xi Qiuyi’s collaboration were each for their own interests. They were playing with fire in hopes to win big!

Xi Qiuyi was betting, Elder Yu was also betting, and naturally, she was betting as well. What she was betting on was whether Baili Yu would rush back to save her after hearing the news!

After going through everyone she knew and eliminating them, she felt that the only one capable of rescuing her was Baili Yu.

Her current most important task was to stall for time!

She had to stall for enough time for Baili Yu to rush back from Mist City. Even just the thought of it was hard. Would Xi Qiuyi allow things to go as she wished?

He clearly would not. He would definitely get rid of her before Baili Yu rushed back!

The only thing she could do was stall for every minute possible!

“Since you know that, then why don’t you try guessing what this prince wishes to know?”
