Not at a Loss

“Is that so?” Yu Su asked suspiciously again, acting as if she was considering it.

Anyway, she could not agree easily.

Otherwise, she would definitely be discovered by the mastermind. It would be difficult to complete her plan later.

Hu Ying continued, “Master Peng did this not only for you, but also for the peace between the Capital and the Southwest Tribe. Think about it. He’s the chief of the Daoist Association, so of course he has to deal with domestic disputes. The dispute between you and Wu Jiang is under his control. This is just his responsibility. Don’t think too much.”

In her opinion, Yu Su would not suffer any losses anyway.

“I’ll think about it again!” Yu Su said hesitantly.

Hu Ying immediately continued to persuade her, “There’s no need to think about it. Listen to me on this matter. This is a matter of life and death. How can you be so indecisive? Master Peng is only willing to spend so much effort to help you make peace on my account.”

Yu Su asked, “What do you think Master Peng’s goal is?”

Hu Ying immediately said, “He doesn’t have any ulterior motives. Don’t think so darkly about everything, alright? He’s mainly doing it for official business. Secondly, he might just be helping you out of kindness. Don’t think too complicated!”

In any case, she believed in Master Peng.

Hu Ying felt that her daughter’s values were a little crooked. She always thought badly of others.

Moreover, he was the master of the Daoist Association and was busy doing spells all day long. He was like a sage. How could he have the time to deal with a little girl like Yu Su?

Was Master Peng too bored?

Yu Su’s lips curled up silently with a mocking expression.

Hu Ying was old, but her thoughts were like a little girl’s.

Did she really think that free things would drop from the sky?

If Hu Ying knew that Master Peng had joined forces with Zhao Lan to poison her, she did not know how she would react.

It must be hilarious!

Seeing that Yu Su did not speak, Hu Ying continued to persuade her, “Come here! Even if you can’t reach an agreement with Wu Jiang, he will probably spare your life on account of Master Peng. This is your chance to save your life.”

Yu Su immediately laughed. “How do you know that I can’t beat Wu Jiang? What a joke.”

“Girls shouldn’t be so aggressive all the time. Even if you defeat Wujiang, he can still use his worm poison to harm you. You’ll be the one who suffers in the end. I’m only saying this for your own good. Do you understand? Do you want to end up like me, suffering from the torture of the worm poison?” Hu Ying said helplessly.

Seeing that she had nothing else to say, Yu Su pretended to agree. “Alright, then I’ll bring Senior Brother over. But let me make it clear first that you can’t force me to do anything. Everything has to be approved by me.”

“Alright! I understand. I’ll tell Master Peng.”

Hu Ying happily replied, “Then that’s it. I’ll tell Master Peng to quickly contact Wu Jiang.”

Yu Su replied unhappily, “Okay!”

With that, she hung up.

Hu Ying smiled happily and hurriedly sent a voice message to Master Peng. “Master Peng, Yu Su has already agreed. I’ve already sent the recording over. Remember to ask Wu Jiang to come tomorrow!”

The last time they met, Peng Chan had told Hu Ying to save the recording of their call. He wanted to listen to it.

Hu Ying did as he said.

On the other side, Peng Chan listened to the entire recording with a satisfied expression.

Sure enough, the fish had taken the bait.

Although Yu Su questioned a few things, she still agreed to come over. When she came over, it would be her death.

He had prepared everything.

They were just waiting for tomorrow!

At night, Peng Chan asked Devotee Mingda to contact Wu Jiang.

Devotee Mingda brought Wu Jiang to the hidden room of the Metaphysics Management Office. When Wu Jiang saw the fake corpse, he cried bitterly, allowing Devotee Mingda to see his sadness.

Wu Jiang sneered in his heart.

If he had not known that his disciple was not dead, he might have really been used by Peng Chan, this treacherous person. Unfortunately, he had known long ago.

He would not fall for it.

After Devotee Mingda brought Wu Jiang to see the corpse, he brought him to Peng Chan’s temporary residence..
