503 Infernal Affairs
Huanhuan nodded in agreement.
The prophet said, âXing Chen is not easy to deal with. Not only is he strong, but heâs also extreme in his ways. If you anger him, heâll probably destroy your body.â
To Xing Chen, he would rather destroy her than give away what he liked.
Huanhuanâs face was filled with worry. âThen what should I do?â
âYou canât use force against Xing Chen. You have to use soft tactics.â
Huanhuan was slightly stunned. âWhat do you mean?â
âIâll help you create an opportunity to get close to Xing Chen. After youâre resurrected, you have to help me do something.â
âWhat is it?â
âAfter youâre resurrected, you have to find a way to gain Xing Chenâs trust and kill him.â
Huanhuan: ââ¦â
The prophet said it casually, but it was like a thunderclap in Huanhuanâs ears, scaring her.
She pointed at her nose in disbelief. âYou want me to kill Xing Chen? How is that possible?!â
âYou have to believe in yourself.â
âBut you said before that Xing Chen canât be killed.â
The prophet said, âItâs true that others canât kill him, but you can.â
No matter how Huanhuan thought about it, she felt that this matter was too crazy.
âEven with my current demigod body, I might not be able to kill Xing Chen, let alone with my previous weak body. Killing Xing Chen is simply a fantasy!â
The prophet lifted her chin and leaned close to her face. âAs long as you do as I say, youâll definitely succeed in killing Xing Chen.â
Seeing his handsome face so close, Huanhuan involuntarily relaxed.
She murmured, âBut if Xing Chen finds out, Iâ¦â
âIâll get Little Brat to go with you. If youâre in danger, Little Brat will protect you,â the prophet said slowly. âKilling Xing Chen is a condition for saving Little Brat. Now that Little Brat is back, you wonât go back on your word, right?â
At this point, Huanhuan knew that she had no choice.
She slumped her shoulders and sighed. âAlright, Iâll do as you say.â
The prophet let go of her chin and gently stroked her head. âGood girl.â
âWhat should I do?â
The prophet stroked the small ball made from animal bones in his hand. âIâve already prepared the plan. Iâll start implementing it soon. This process might make you suffer a little. I hope you can survive it.â
â¦
When Huanhuan returned to the bedroom, she was in a daze.
The prophet had told her the entire plan just now.
To be honest, the chances of the plan succeeding were very high, but just the thought of living in the demon race for a long time and playing the role of an undercover agent beside Xing Chen made her feel like she was dreaming.
Bai Di and Xue Ling were not in the house. Little Brat crawled out of bed. He was wearing a small dress made of snow velvet rabbit skin. He looked furry and very cute.
He looked up and saw Huanhuanâs dejected expression. He couldnât help but ask, âWhatâs wrong?â
Huanhuan sat down and casually scooped it up. She hugged it and asked casually, âHave you watched Infernal Affairs?â
âI have.â
Huanhuan smiled bitterly. âIâm going to the demonsâ place soon to stage a beast version of Infernal Affairs.â
Little Brat thought for a moment and quickly reacted. âWhat did the prophet say to you?â
âHe asked me to go undercover in the demon race and find a chance to kill Xing Chen.â
Little Brat immediately exploded. âIs he crazy? He actually asked you to do such a dangerous thing! With your strength, youâll immediately be eaten by him!â
He paused and quickly asked, âDonât tell me you agreed to him?â
Huanhuan stroked the soft rabbit fur he was wearing. âYes.â
Little Brat jumped up and slapped her forehead. âAre you stupid?!â
Huanhuan hugged her head and said aggrievedly, âPreviously, I begged the prophet to save you. The prophet made a condition and killing Xing Chen is the condition. Iâve already agreed to it.â
âSo what if youâve agreed?! Anyway, Iâm back now. You can go back on your word now!â
Huanhuan clicked her tongue. âItâs not good for me to go back on my word, right?â
âThis concerns your life. You canât hesitate when itâs time to go back on your word!â Little Brat jumped to the ground. âIf you canât bring yourself to do it, Iâll help you tell him. Heâs just being shameless. Besides, Iâm a great master!â
Huanhuan: ââ¦â
Although she was touched, she wanted to complain about this guyâs shamelessness.
Without hesitation, Little Brat turned around and ran out.
When he found the prophet, he was still sitting in the hall, holding the small ball made from animal bones in his hand. His gaze passed through the shark silk veil and landed on the wind chimes hanging at the door. No one knew what he was thinking.
Little Brat stood in front of him and placed his hands on his hips. âYou canât let Huanhuan go to the demons!â
The prophet said, âIf she doesnât go, no one can kill Xing Chen.â
âWhy do you have to kill Xing Chen? Do you think the entire demon race will disappear as long as you kill him? Can the beast continent be peaceful forever?!â
The prophet remained calm in the face of Little Bratâs series of questions. âHe was the one who opened that door back then. Only by killing him can that door be closed.â
âThis is all just your guess!â
âItâs not just a guess. I saw that door with these eyes. I also saw the future of the beast continent. If we donât close that door, the beast continent will definitely be plunged into misery and suffering in the future.â
Little Brat was furious. âSo you plan to sacrifice Huanhuan?!â
âWith you protecting her, she wonât be sacrificed.â
âReally?â Little Brat looked up at his face. âThen tell me, do your eyes see Huanhuanâs future? Is she living well in the future?â
The prophet said nothing.
His fingers involuntarily tightened around the ball made from animal bones. His pale lips were pursed into a tight line.
There was a long silence before he said, âI canât see her future.â
This answer was beyond Little Bratâs expectations.
Little Brat was stunned. âHow? You could clearly see her future before. Why canât you see it now?â
The prophet fell silent again.
This time, he waited for a long time without speaking again.
However, Little Brat sensed the reason from his attitude.
âYour eyes can only see the future of others, but not your own fate. If Huanhuanâs future becomes entangled with yours, you wonât be able to see her future clearly⦠Is that so?â
The prophet still said nothing.
Little Brat knew that he had tacitly agreed.
âYouâre reallyâ¦â Little Brat thought for a long time but couldnât think of a suitable word.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
After a long silence, the prophet finally said, âI donât know what her future will be like. I can only ask you to protect her.â
Little Brat shook the leaves on his head in frustration. âF*ck! Iâm just a clone. I canât defeat that demon king Xing Chen.â
âYou donât have to kill him. You just have to help Huanhuan escape at the critical moment.â
