Chapter 3503: Chapter 3503: He Wasn’t Poisoned at All—It’s an Act
"What if I told you to abandon your Evil Cultivation Technique?" Xiao Yi said in a deep voice, his gaze fixed on the person in front of him.
Upon hearing this, Chief Zuo’s eyes suddenly brightened.
"Is there really such a good thing?"
He had long grown tired of the days spent struggling under Yang Tianxiu’s control just to survive.
For the sake of acquiring a mental method each month, he did everything he didn’t want to, killing so many people that his whole body seemed soaked in blood.
He had been wanting to stop for a long time, but unfortunately, he couldn’t bring himself to be so ruthless.
"Being an ordinary person means not having such a long life, maybe just a few decades and you’re dead," Xiao Yi continued.
"Given our current situation, perhaps even a few years and we’re dead," said Chief Zuo.
Isn’t that just the truth? Following Yang Tianxiu, who can guarantee how many years they can live? They’re all desperadoes carrying their heads doing business.
"Instead of this, it’s better to be an ordinary person. At least you don’t have to live in fear, your days won’t be worse than an animal’s."
"Heh."
Xiao Yi chuckled softly.
Indeed, their lives are surely worse than an animal’s.
Yang Tianxiu beats and scolds them as he wishes, and even if he orders them to die, they couldn’t say no.
"Do your men know you’re planning to betray Yang Tianxiu?" he asked.
"They don’t need to know."
This sentence was spoken by Chief Zuo with great certainty.
Why should they know? Those people won’t turn back until they’ve hit a dead end. He knows that each of them hopes he gets pulled down so they can have a chance at promotion.
The people under him are replaced batch after batch; they’re not like those under Xiao Yi.
"Just say whether you agree or not," he asked.
"I agree."
Xiao Yi nodded decisively, too.
Everyone is smart enough to naturally ascertain if Chief Zuo has truly aligned himself with him.
For Yang Tianxiu, how many truly lay down their lives for him? Aren’t they all afraid that if Yang Tianxiu dies, they’ll also have no place to bury themselves, thus forced to lead the charge?
Hearing his agreement, Chief Zuo let out a light sigh of relief.
This journey wasn’t wasted; he finally found his way back to this path. Good.
"Is there anything that needs help?" he asked.
Xiao Yi feigning death here surely faces some difficult matters; otherwise, he’d have acted openly long ago instead of quietly burning just a few granaries.
"It’s very simple, you go tell Yang Tianxiu that I am not poisoned at all, I’m just pretending," Xiao Yi said.
Chief Zuo: "..."
This... he’s not sure about this.
Isn’t that the old path that Ge Leader took, letting him walk it again?
Can this really work? Yang Tianxiu won’t become furious and use him as Ge Leader’s scapegoat, directly killing him?
"Are you sure this won’t cause any problems?"
"No."
Xiao Yi said with absolute certainty.
"Yang Tianxiu is now worried and cautious; even if he knows I’ve betrayed him, on the surface, he can’t do anything to me."
"Tsk tsk, having a group of loyal subordinates is a great thing indeed."
Chief Zuo clicked his tongue twice, deeply moved, unlike him, with his men replaced batch after batch, all of them wanting his life!
"Not right."
Suddenly, he shook his head, looking at Xiao Yi in surprise.
"You actually want to deal with that person?"
