Mysterious country

"Brother Xia, please take a step to speak."

Shen Hongyan motioned to Xia Qi to come over. Xia Qi smiled and shook his head and said:

"I know what you want to ask. You don't need to worry about anything else. Just know that he is one of ours now and can be trusted."

"Don't worry, Manager Shen. No matter what conflicts we had before, I will work for you wholeheartedly from now on."

Seeing that Shen Hongyan was worried, Zhu Xu also expressed his stance at this time.

Shen Hongyan swallowed hard. Although he still didn't understand the situation, since Xia Qi refused to explain clearly, it would be disrespectful for him to continue asking.

"Do Manager Liang and the others know about this?"

"I don't know yet, but I will tell them later."

The three of them sat down, and soon the chef had prepared the meal and served it.

Shen Hongyan was still a little hungry, but now after knowing that Zhu Xu had joined, his stomach was filled with shock. He only ate two lettuce and couldn't eat anymore.

Zhu Xu didn't eat anything. After all, he went from being a senior manager under one person to more than ten thousand people in the Second Hades, and suddenly became a prisoner and a slave of Xia Qi. This huge frustration of falling from heaven to hell, Naturally, it also made it difficult for him to eat anything.

On the contrary, Xia Tian Qi has a good appetite. Speaking of which, ever since the Ghost Baby was trapped in that mysterious space and he could eat as before, his appetite has been very good, and he has never eaten an apple again.

It really made him sick to his stomach when he saw apples, just like when he smelled the aroma of meat.

Shen Hongyan didn't eat much, so he found an excuse to leave first. Apparently he felt awkward sitting here.

Xia Qi didn't stay with him either. After Shen Hongyan left, he ate for a while, then stopped and asked Zhu Xu:

"Do you know why we stopped you?"

"have no idea."

Zhu Xu shook his head, with confusion on his face.

"Because I don't want the Second Hades to cooperate with the Rebel Alliance. You will know the details later. All you need to know now is that this outer land belongs to us. In the future, we will make it like the three major Hades, or the Rebel Alliance." Just plant a big force."

"I see."

Zhu Xu looked very surprised after hearing this, but this surprise was quickly suppressed by him.

Seeing this, Xia Qi said to him very straightforwardly:

"Zhu Xu, you don't have to pretend to be very obedient. This expression will make me feel fake and will make me more uneasy about you.

I have told you before that as long as you do things for me with peace of mind, I will give you your freedom when the things are done.

I will not mention the matter between you and me to others, and I will claim to the outside world that you were persuaded by me and then joined us to help. "

Hearing Xia Qi say this, the expression on Zhu Xu's face suddenly became a little stagnant, and it took him a long time to nod and say:

"Thank you, I will definitely do my best."

"Well, that's settled then."

Xia Qi smiled, and then asked Zhu Xu about Cheng Jin:

"What do you think Cheng Jin's chances of winning would be if he started a war with the Third Hades?"

“Almost no chance of winning”

"What's the reason?"

"Hou Tai is recognized as the number one person in the three major underworlds, and his strength has reached the level of a half-step director. Although Cheng Jin is also very strong, he is still only at the level of a senior manager.

So as long as Hou Tai decides to take action against Cheng Jin, Cheng Jin will be dead. If he dies, the senior managers below will never go against the Third Hades again. "

Zhu Xu thought for a while and expressed his opinion.

"But there's one thing I don't understand. According to you, Hou Tai is the strongest among the three underworlds. It's not a problem at all to deal with Cheng Jin, but why didn't he do it?"

"It is said that they are worried about being punished by the divine light."

"Divine light?"

Xia Qi remembered that he seemed to have heard of this title. He muttered it and repeated it, and then he suddenly remembered it.

He remembered that when Fengxiang was in the neighborhood, the female ghost he caught who could speak like a normal person once mentioned to him about the existence of divine light.

It is said that the divine light is a very terrifying blocking force. Before the ghosts float around the space, looking for an entrance to enter, the divine light will look for powerful ghosts and then kill them.

"What is the divine light you are talking about?"

Xia Qi didn't know that what Zhu Xu said was different from what he heard from the ghost, so he asked again uncertainly.

“I’ve never seen this before, so I can’t tell what it is.

But it is said that divine light is a law of this second domain. If there is a fight between the rulers of the underworld, divine light will fall from the sky and punish both parties in the fight.

I think this is the only reason why Hou Tai has always been afraid to take action wantonly. "

"Then if Zhu Xu doesn't take action, what's the comparison in terms of senior managers between the Second Hades and the Third Hades?"

"There are a total of 8 senior managers in the Third Hades. If you remove me from the Second Hades, there will be a total of 6.

If I were here, there might still be a slight chance of winning, because I could contain Chang Letian, but now, the Second Hades has no chance of winning at all. "

"How well do you know Cheng Jin?"

"I should be considered someone who knows him better." Zhu Xu did not deny this.

"Then do you think that the disappearance of you people will make Cheng Jin think that the Rebel Alliance went back on their word?"

"Won't."

"Why?"

"Because there is absolutely no reason. Since the establishment of the Rebel Alliance, they have tried to invade the inner domain many times, but they have all ended in heavy losses.

Now that Cheng Jin is willing to act as an internal coordinator, how could the Rebel Alliance go back on their promise? "

Hearing Zhu Xu say this, Xia Qi suddenly became silent. Seeing this, he heard Zhu Xu say again:

“Although Cheng Jin will not believe that it was the Rebel Alliance that went back on its word, he will think that it was the Rebel Alliance that had cooperated with the Third Hades before.

After all, in everyone's eyes, Outland seems to be a mess, with no strength at all, and no courage to play tricks behind their backs, so everyone will only doubt each other, and it is difficult to doubt Outland.

In fact, Cheng Jin had also had the idea of ​​turning the Outer Territory into a subsidiary force before this, but he had not yet had time to realize it. "

Xia Qi had never thought of dragging the Third Hades into it before.

Because even Cheng Jin had the bold idea of ​​cooperating with the Rebel Alliance and luring wolves into the house, then why wouldn't there be one in the Third Hades?

But at the moment, he doesn't want the three major underworlds to fight among themselves. Otherwise, if they fight among themselves, the Rebel Alliance will lose control.

In the next week, Xia Qi did nothing and kept recuperating in the Light and Shadow District.

In the process, he also told everyone about Zhu Xu's joining. Just as he promised Zhu Xu that day, he did not reveal their true relationship, but only said that Zhu Xu was persuaded to join by him.
