Even if Xu Sui Sui and Qin Zhengqiu were together, Chu Xianping could handle it.
Wei Changtian certainly didn't understand what Chu Xianping was relying on to have such confidence, let alone what his backup plan was.
Good heavens, predicting things like a god? Zhuge Liang reborn?
If Chu Xianping were to pull out three more brocade pouches for himself at this time, that would really be complete.
Wei Changtian's expression was momentarily filled with surprise, and he couldn't speak for a long time.
But Chu Xianping didn't give him any brocade pouches, only after a moment of silence did he instruct:
“Young master, you must promptly send me messages about what you encounter in Huailing.”
“When necessary, I will tell you what to do.”
“Uh... what about now?”
Wei Changtian asked suspiciously, “What do I need to do now?”
“You don't need to do anything.”
Chu Xianping shook his head: “Just act according to your original plan, young master.”
“Okay.”
Although a little worried, Wei Changtian still nodded hesitantly.
Since Chu Xianping had said so, he could only choose to believe him.
However...
“Brother Chu, there's something I must remind you of.”
“Please speak, young master.”
“Well, Brother Chu, Xu Sui Sui is definitely not simple.”
Wei Changtian paused and said in a deep voice: “Although she is not a cultivator, she has many supernatural powers, whether it's killing or self-preservation.”
“She might even be more difficult to deal with than my grandfather.”
“Do you understand what I'm saying?”
“Young master, I understand.”
Slightly nodding, Chu Xianping looked at Wei Changtian and slowly said a sentence.
“Miss Xu's many methods... should all be the same as yours, young master, right?”
“...”
“Shasha shasha”, the night wind blowing from outside the courtyard gently brushed the fallen leaves, stirring up a gust of darkness.
Wei Changtian suddenly widened his eyes, and then gradually returned to calm after a moment.
Chu Xianping might not understand the concept of a “transmigrator”, let alone what a “system” is.
But this doesn't prevent him from noticing the various clues between himself and Xu Sui Sui from many details.
Moreover, perhaps he had already discovered these things, but he had never mentioned them before...
“Yes.”
Wei Changtian's voice was a little muffled, and his figure in the darkness was a little blurry.
He didn't make any meaningless concealment, but of course, it was impossible to reveal the whole truth.
It wasn't that he didn't trust Chu Xianping, but Wei Changtian felt that it was really unnecessary to say this kind of thing.
“Brother Chu, she does have similar methods to me.”
“Not only can she kill a second-rank in one hit, but she must also possess life-saving treasures.”
“What's more, according to your statement, perhaps my grandfather has temporarily allied with her now.”
“So... under this circumstance, can you still deal with her?”
“...”
“Yes.”
Unexpectedly, after Wei Changtian finished asking, Chu Xianping still gave the answer without any hesitation.
Even if Xu Sui Sui can kill second-rank, has life-saving tools, and even has Qin Zhengqiu, a quasi-first-rank master, protecting her... he still has the confidence to deal with it.
Perhaps the difference in intelligence can make up for part of it, but...
Anyway, if it were him, he would never dare to make such a guarantee.
“Brother Chu, there can't be any falsehood in this kind of thing.”
His expression became serious, and Wei Changtian felt it necessary to remind Chu Xianping not to be too confident.
However, the latter was still the same calm appearance, and his tone was extremely serious.
“Young master, don't worry, I do what I say.”
“...”
“Okay then.”
After taking another look at Chu Xianping, Wei Changtian didn't say anything more after all.
“I'm going to sleep.”
Leaving a sentence, turning around and waving his hand, his blurry figure quickly disappeared into the night.
Chu Xianping kept watching Wei Changtian disappear, then turned to look at the moon in the night sky.
He didn't exaggerate anything.
Even if it wasn't 100%, Chu Xianping still had at least a 90% certainty that he could deal with all the variables coming from Xu Sui Sui's side.
As for where his confidence comes from...
The alliance with Zhuang Zhiming is only part of it.
And the other part...
Remember, before the Battle of Niutou Mountain, Wei Changtian once gave Chu Xianping a “brand new” puppet pill?
At that time, Chu Xianping said that Song Li wanted to join the Freemasons and was a little unsure.
Then Wei Changtian gave him a puppet pill without “blood recognition”, originally wanting Chu Xianping to decide for himself whether to give it to Song Li.
Now, this puppet pill has been taken by someone.
However, the person who took the pill was not Song Li.
At the same time, the Gobi Desert in the Western Regions.
Surrounded by continuous black sand dunes, the Gobi is flat, like a large black mirror. Gazing into the distance, one only feels that the heaven and earth are connected, and everything is silent.
Several carriages were parked somewhere in the Gobi, surrounding a bonfire, and several men with different clothes and dresses were sitting around.
There was a half-white-haired black-robed old man, a bald-headed monk with a cassock slanting over his shoulder, a white-faced scholar wearing a Confucian robe, and a government official wearing an official uniform of an unknown country.
The bonfire crackled, and the red light fell on the four people, and the shadows behind them swayed and merged into the night.
And besides them, there was actually a woman in a certain carriage next to her.
It's just that the woman's face is not as calm as the four people are now.
“Why...”
“Why would Wei Changtian do this...”
“It shouldn't be like this...”
“...”
Clenching her fingers tightly, Xu Sui Sui kept recalling every word that the “Black Platform Elder” had said at the Elder Council just now.
And the more she recalled, the more complicated her expression became.
There is doubt, there is confusion, there is hesitation.
There is also a trace of fear.
I wanted to add fuel to the fire while Zhuang Zhiming and Wei Changtian were suspicious of each other, but in the end, I put myself in a passive and dangerous situation.
When the changes came too quickly, and the development of things seemed to suddenly get out of control, Xu Sui Sui, who didn't know where the problem was, was even a little panicked at the moment.
She is not Wei Changtian, let alone Chu Xianping.
In the end, she is just a female college student who has transmigrated to another world not long ago.
Although Xu Sui Sui is indeed more scheming and courageous than most girls in her previous life.
However, these schemes and courage actually come more from her “prescient” golden finger.
When a person can know in advance the result of doing something, then he will naturally become “brave.”
But once he loses this “prescient” ability, the “bravery” that comes from it will no longer exist.
And this is Xu Sui Sui's current situation.
“Wh- what should I do next...”
“Are you still going to Huailing?”
The fist against her knee became tighter and tighter, and her breathing became more and more rapid.
Xu Sui Sui knows what Wei Changtian is going to do in Huailing, knows how Ning Yongnian will respond, and even knows the ending of both parties - provided there is no intervention from her.
Of course, since she originally planned to go to Huailing, Xu Sui Sui definitely wanted to intervene before.
But now she hesitated.
Because she doesn't know what she will face once she goes to Huailing.
Maybe I shouldn't go.
Just...
Turning her head and looking at the four people by the bonfire, Xu Sui Sui shook her head bitterly.
There is no turning back once the bow is drawn, and there is no turning back now.
Alas.
Sighing in her heart, Xu Sui Sui suddenly thought of what Wei Changtian had said to her in Guanghan County.
“As far as this world is concerned, there has never been, nor will there be, a so-called protagonist.”
“So I would rather not know that so-called destiny, but just do what I think I should do now.”
“...”
From standing by to being deeply mired in the mire.
From a “spoiler” to being coerced by fate into “joining the game” and becoming one of the “protagonists” of the world.
Xu Sui Sui had not foreseen that one day she would be like Wei Changtian in the past, unable to predict the “future” anymore.
She just didn't expect this day to come so quickly.
So.
It doesn't matter what destiny is, just do what you think you should do now, right...
Okay.
I have to get up early tomorrow to do errands, so there will only be one chapter today~
