Someone once said that the enemy as formidable as a god is less frightening than a teammate as foolish as a pig.
But sometimes, the most terrifying person is the one who can handle matters and speak without leaving any loopholes.
Qin Si is clearly such an existence.
The recent conversation left Liu Zixuan unable to find any flaws, and it not only weighed the pros and cons for Liu Zixuan but also offered him some entirely practical benefits!
Such a person is undoubtedly a double-edged sword. Right now, he can cooperate with Liu Zixuan to overthrow several other big shots, but in the future, he can team up with others to push Liu Zixuan into the abyss!
Therefore, whether to cooperate, or how to cooperate, Liu Zixuan must ponder over it carefully.
Listening to Qin Si's words, Liu Zixuan chuckled, "One step to Heaven, one step to the abyss. Once you take that step, it's indeed Heaven, but taking that step requires countless life and death experiences."
"Everything requires a price, especially when changing a situation!" Qin Si laughed.
"We're casually talking here about putting others at death's door. If they find out, wouldn't they have people assassinate us first?" Liu Zixuan sneered.
"Hahahaha!"
Qin Si laughed along and said, "That would depend on whether the little miracle-worker allows them to kill us. While I'm here in Celestial Capital, I suppose there's no one who can kill me!"
After speaking, Qin Si stood up, "I'll send you my address later. If you have made up your mind, come and find me. You can be absolutely certain that before the situation stabilizes, I'll only help you, not harm you!"
Watching Qin Si leave, Liu Zixuan sat back in the chair, thought for a moment, then smiled, "He's really old fox!"
"I really dislike this guy. He looks weak and scholarly on the outside, but has such a venomous heart!" Luo Xi muttered while pouting.
Liu Zixuan squeezed Luo Xi's little hand and said, "That's precisely what makes Qin Si formidable. He deliberately unveiled himself before us today; otherwise, according to his character, he could entirely maintain the gentlemanly appearance."
"Are you really going to cooperate with him?"
Luo Xi sat beside Liu Zixuan and said anxiously, "You know, people like him usually devour others without leaving a trace. Instead of cooperating with him, why not look for Sister An An? Anyway, Sister An An is also one of the top figures and ranked higher than him!"
"I used to think the same way as you, believing whoever ranks higher is more formidable. But during the conversation just now, I understood that ranking merely makes the names more appealing when placed together."
"What do you mean?" Luo Xi asked, puzzled.
"People have told me before not to provoke the ten people in Celestial Capital, but they only ever mentioned nine people to me. Normally, the higher the rank, the more formidable, yet multiple people have said not to mention the tenth person. If the tenth person weren't formidable, there wouldn't be any reason not to mention them!"
Liu Zixuan changed his tone, "Which can only indicate the tenth person is the strongest among these big shots, indirectly suggesting that the true rankings should be considered in reverse."
"So if you put it that way, excluding the tenth person, is Lao Jiu Lu the strongest among the nine?" Luo Xi asked.
"It's widely rumored that Lao Jiu Lu is a grandmaster level figure in the Celestial Capital Martial Artist faction, with his own Martial Arts Academy and many martial arts gyms; can such a person be weak?"
Liu Zixuan snorted, "So, the waters in Celestial Capital are much murkier than we thought!"
"So, are you going to cooperate with Qin Si or not?" Luo Xi returned to the topic.
Liu Zixuan stood up with a smile, "It depends on my mood then."
"Do you base such matters on mood?"
"Alright, let's not dwell on this. Let's head out for a walk, this great time shouldn't just be spent in the clinic."
Liu Zixuan laughed, then took Luo Xi's delicate hand and walked outside.
But just as they drove out of Si Ju Road, a van suddenly stopped at the clinic entrance, and about seven or eight people got out holding some tools.
Seeing the clinic's shutter door fully closed, the leader of the group spat, "Damn it, late by a step!"
"Boss, what now? Should we smash it up?" a man next to him asked.
The leader's eyes, like a bull's, rotated a few times, then said, "Get the paint out!"
Saying this, his men promptly took out two buckets of red paint.
The leader grabbed a big brush, dipped it in paint, and started writing: "A life for a life, a debt for a debt!"
"Liu Zixuan, return our young master's life!"
"Be accountable for what you do!"
Large characters were written on the shutter door and the adjacent wall, soon attracting many shopkeepers to watch.
Seeing those shocking words, people were puzzled.
"Mr. Liu is so kind-hearted, how could he possibly do such a thing?"
"Exactly, could it be framing Mr. Liu?"
The crowd couldn't believe Liu Zixuan killed anyone's young master.
The leader threw the brush on the ground, turned and looked at the onlookers, "Listen up, when Liu Zixuan returns, tell him to wash his neck clean and wait here; we will come for his life!"
After saying this, the crowd quickly got in their cars and drove away.
Seeing so many people watching, Old Wen also came over and, after finding out what was going on, quickly dialed Liu Zixuan.
But on the other end, the call couldn't get through!
Little did anyone know, Liu Zixuan was also encountering some unpleasant situations.
...
Celestial Capital is vast, and as the heart of Star Sea, it covers all trades and industries.
Since there was free time today, Liu Zixuan let Luo Xi take him to Celestial Capital's snack street to taste the local specialties.
But just as they entered the snack street, he noticed someone had been following him since they crossed the previous street.
Parking the car on the side, Liu Zixuan frowned, "Seems like a famous person attracts trouble; can't even go out for a bit without being followed!"
Luo Xi looked around and asked, "What should we do then?"
"Ignore them, we'll enjoy ourselves. If they cause trouble, we'll just beat them away."
Liu Zixuan felt a bit annoyed but didn't want to ruin the mood of having fun.
With Luo Xi, they stepped out of the car and headed towards the various snack shops.
Upon entering the first shop, two sneaky men ran over, snapped several photos of his back and car.
They then fiddled with their phones, dialed a number, and said, "Found the person you mentioned, he's at the snack street here; yes, it's definitely him. I've sent you the photos. Is it time to send the money over now?"
"Okay, okay, we're here waiting, make sure to bring the money when you come over!"
The high-profile Liu Zixuan, watched by the top figures, found himself unknowingly stepping into another conspiracy…
