Chapter 992: Have You Eaten? If Not, Eat My Fists

"That’s right!"

Ye Xiu laughed and looked around at everyone, eloquently saying:

"From the moment I met Ming Yue, a plan began to take shape in my mind."

"I first took Ming Yue to Qi Hai’s grave and told her that it was Ye Xiu’s grave; I know Ming Yue too well."

"When she learned about Ye Xiu’s grave and found out that some people from Red Water City were hiding in Dongyang Village, she would surely seek external forces to attack Dongyang Village."

"So, I had Dizang use the prepared formation base to set up a trapping formation that allowed entry but not exit, trapping Lonely Cloud City, waiting for the fish to take the bait."

"Then I pretended to send Ming Yue undercover to the Demon Clan army, while I went to the Genius Alliance to persuade them to ally with Red Water City."

"When I took away all the Fourth Realm and above War Gods from the Genius Alliance, I anticipated someone would target the Genius Alliance. Therefore, as I brought the Fourth Realm War Gods to Lonely Cloud City, Dizang led a team to the Genius Forest."

"The people Dizang brought to the Genius Forest would take the First, Second, and Third Realm War Gods of the Genius Alliance to five other bases, while all those below War God level would be sent to Red Water City."

"And Dizang set up a trapping formation in the Genius Forest with a long-prepared formation base."

"Just now, I received a message from Dizang stating that Zhan Xifeng and his foolish counterparts, both real and avatars, have already stepped into the trapping formation."

"The entire plan is flawless, the only surprise is that I expected Ming Yue to bring the Demon Clan army to Lonely Cloud City, but instead, she brought the armies of the three Judicator Families."

"A pleasant surprise!"

After listening to Ye Xiu’s detailed explanation, including Qin Qing, everyone felt like mere chess pieces on Ye Xiu’s board, deeply impressed by his wisdom and strategy.

Of course, the people of the Genius Alliance, Ming Yue, and the three Judicator Families had no idea that the ugly man before them was Ye Xiu, as they always thought Ye Xiu was long dead!

Ming Yue’s mentality crumbled, realizing that from start to finish, she was the pawn being played and used, yet she was feeling smug and proud all along, oh my!

"Even though you used me, treated me as a pawn, I am not angry; in fact, I feel a bit thrilled. What is this?" Long Qian laughed and said.

Ji Hongye, the eight Great Elders, and the Genius Alliance members felt the same as Long Qian.

Being used by Ximen;

Being treated as pawns by Ximen;

Logically, they should be angry, should be furious, but they just couldn’t get angry, isn’t that ironic?

"Ximen is our Alliance Hierarch of the Genius Alliance. He used us, treated us as pawns, for our benefit, to protect us."

Ji Hongye provided a self-deceptive yet overwhelmingly reasonable explanation.

Long Qian, the eight Great Elders, and the Genius Alliance members reluctantly accepted Ji Hongye’s explanation.

Moreover, they added inwardly: to Ming Yue and the three Judicator Families, this was Ximen’s conspiracy; but in their own view, it was wisdom, strategy, and charisma!

Of course, they were timid and cowardly, but that doesn’t mean they’re foolish!

By the fact that Ximen could set up a plan without notifying anyone, randomly dispatching that formation expert named Dizang, proved that Ximen’s identity in Red Water City was rather exceptional.

Such a person serving as the Alliance Hierarch of the Genius Alliance, once Red Water City wins the war, considering Ximen’s influence, they surely wouldn’t harm the Genius Alliance.

"Great, great story by Ximen,"

Zhan Xifeng clapped his hands, smiling as he said:

"Ximen, you’ve said so much, why haven’t we felt like we’ve entered a formation when our real and avatars went to Genius Forest?"

At this time, Jiang Chen said solemnly, "My real self hit a formation barrier."

Zhan Xifeng’s smile froze on his face.

The other Eighth Realm War Gods also said:

"Both my real self and avatar touched formation barriers at different directions."

Zhan Xifeng’s smile completely vanished.

"Ximen is right, our real selves and avatars have indeed entered the trapping formation."

Zhan Xifeng could no longer maintain his composure, feeling despair, panic, reluctance, and fear, all negative emotions flooding his old face.

"Ming Yue, what did you say earlier? I was too happy too soon?"

At this moment, Qin Qing playfully asked Ming Yue.

"Haha, um, Qin Qing, I was joking, do you believe me?"

Ming Yue’s body shivered with fear but forced a smile to ask.

"I believe you!" Qin Qing nodded.

Ming Yue: "???"

All: "???"

Such a hasty belief?

"Have you eaten?" Qin Qing asked with a smile.

Ming Yue glanced fearfully at Qin Qing: "Not yet!"

"Oh, if you haven’t eaten, then eat two of my punches!"

Qin Qing laughed, punching Ming Yue in the face, spinning her in place and falling to the ground, then pinning her down and raining punches on her.

Ming Yue curled up silently on the ground, letting Qin Qing’s punches fall like raindrops, despite the bone-cutting pain, despite the heart-stabbing pain, despite the injuries upon injuries, she stubbornly clenched her teeth and dared not utter a sound of pain.

Afraid that one sound would directly lead to Qin Qing beating her to death!

"Go, carefully bury Qi Hai’s coffin back to its original position and kowtow a thousand times to apologize." Qin Qing said coldly.

With a bruised face, Ming Yue’s eyes lit up, was that all?

Hahaha!

Thanks to the gods above, she didn’t have to die!

"Alright, alright, I’ll go right away!"

Ming Yue got up, carried the coffin, and dashed through the formation barrier towards the graveyard.

Only then did she realize that the formation in Dongyang Village allowed exit but not entry!

"Just letting her go like that?"

Long Qian asked incredulously.

Qin Qing glanced at Ye Xiu, sighed quietly, and said:

"It’s not yet time to kill her."

In fact, Qin Qing’s heart was crystal clear, Ye Xiu’s reason for not killing Ming Yue was primarily because Ming Yue personally arranged and plotted the action that killed Ye Xiu’s mother and grandparents.

Ye Xiu’s hatred for Ming Yue even surpassed that for the three Judicator Families.

Of course, there was another reason!

Ye Xiu wanted to see how strong the Gluttonous Demon Technique could be at its limit.

"Chen Yuxin, take some people and lock up Zhan Xifeng and others, and guard them strictly!" Ye Xiu commanded.

Why me?

Long Qian felt confused but agreed: "Alright."

Ye Xiu nodded, signaled to Gong Jin, and shouted:

"130 Special Combat Team, come with me to the Genius Forest."

"Yes, sir!"

Members from the 130 Special Combat Team seated at various tables stood up almost simultaneously at Ye Xiu’s command, gathering quickly and orderly behind Ye Xiu.

This scene startled Zhan Xifeng and the Genius Alliance members secretly. Who are these 130 Special Combat Team members? Why do they seem like professional soldiers?

However, they didn’t know that the 130 Special Combat Team was made up of elite intelligence personnel under Huang Quan’s command. Their individual skills surpassed those of the so-called Soldier Kings, not only proficient in all skills of Soldier Kings, Scouts, and Special Combat Teams, but also various exotic and unusual skills, any of them could crash the Ministry of Military Affairs of countries worldwide.
