"Secondly, we can die together. Hehehe, but I don't like that approach. You two are young and quite powerful."

While I could kill one, killing both would be difficult. It would be too time-consuming and laborious, not worth it at all.

Chen Duo frowned as she looked at Jin Daya's affected manner.

Jin Dayazi caught on to this and chuckled: "You're not convinced? Do you want to cut off my head? Come on, if you're not afraid of that person dying."

Chen Duo formed a knife with her palm, which was covered in black ink.

Jin Daya didn't dodge or avoid, he even offered his head: "Come on, chop!"

Chen Duo raised her hand as if to chop.

At this moment, Xia Linyuan, who was observing from the side, suddenly saw the originally loose pink qi vaguely condense into loose threads, one end of which was connected to Chen Duo's crown lobes, and the other end was penetrating through the back of Jin Dayazi's head toward his own crown lobes.

The line was as tiny as a mayfly; if Xia Linyuan hadn't practiced his pupil technique, he might not have been able to see it.

Xia Linyuan had heard Master Dou's lectures. The parietal lobe is the brain's functional area responsible for touch, temperature perception, and body position perception.

However, Jin Dayazi used Qi to connect the three of them.

Xia Linyuan instantly understood everything, and at the same time, the Qi connecting Jin Dayazi to Xia Linyuan's crown chakra was severed.

Indeed, when one is on guard, simple Qi cannot interfere with the brain's cognition.

Xia Linyuan shouted, "Miss Chen Duo, strike! You won't hurt anyone; I've already broken his magic!"

As Xia Linyuan finished speaking, Chen Duo's hesitant hand suddenly accelerated, and the Qi thread connecting Chen Duo's crown lobes broke.

Jin Dayazi's pupils contracted, and he quickly dodged.

Unfortunately, it was too late. Chen Duo's hand, coated with the Gu poison, was as sharp as a knife and directly cut off a piece of his neck.

"Ah ah ah."

Jin Dayazi screamed in agony, staggering backward as he clutched his shoulder.

Xia Linyuan rushed forward and said sarcastically, "Two choices?"

No, we won't choose any of them, we'll choose the third one.

You're a 'cognitive fraudster!'

Chapter 173 The Devil's Deal

A punch slammed into Jin Daya's chest, the powerful force causing the flesh to cave in.

Jin Daya was sent flying backward, the missing flesh on his neck writhing as the poison devoured the newly formed flesh.

Feeling the invasion of the poison, Jin Dayazi's face hardened, and he forcefully tore off that area.

"You actually managed to see through my dark magic!"

When Jin Dayazi realized that his pain could not affect Xia Linyuan and Chen Duo, his face contorted in rage, and his tentacles lashed out at Xia Linyuan with a whooshing sound.

Xia Linyuan stared coldly at Jin Dayazi, a scarlet glint in his eyes: "If I'm not mistaken, the premise for your 'substitute death' is unconscious, or subconscious obedience, right?"

Only when your subconscious mind also accepts you can your Qi be powerful enough to interfere with our cognition through our parietal lobe, deceive our brains to make us suffer, and then deceive our bodies to produce a series of physiological reactions.

You have the ability to die in someone else's place, yet you haven't committed suicide to kill us.

It's because we haven't become your 'scapegoats' yet.

Your attempts to reconcile along the way, and the choices you just mentioned, are all aimed at turning us into your scapegoats.

If we really agree to the conditions you proposed,

Your Qi will then be able to completely invade our nerves and refine us.

No wonder the people around you are mercenaries. As long as there's money, they'd gladly trade with demons; they're practically natural scapegoats.

Xia Linyuan understood the principle of 'substitute death'. Without any hesitation, he moved without moving, as fast as lightning, and used his Ruyi Force to smash wildly. Fist shadows appeared one after another, and the fists wrapped in golden light were like burning meteorites, smashing Jin Dayazi's tentacles.

The Ruyi Force flowed through his body and directly into his internal organs.

With his internal organs damaged, Jin Dayazi coughed up a mouthful of blood: "Damn it!"

With his ability to take the place of another lost, his massive body began to writhe instantly. As an unnamed member of the Named Organization, his body was almost detached from the human species, becoming a demon. His powerful physique made him even stronger than ordinary body-refining superhumans.

However, Jin Dayazi didn't seem to have practiced this skill; his movements were stiff, and in Xia Linyuan's eyes, he was just a harder version of a punching bag.

quickly,

Jin Dayazi lay on the ground, barely alive.

Chen Duo stepped forward and asked Xia Linyuan, "Should we capture him alive?"

Xia Linyuan looked up at Chen Duo, the bloodshot in his eyes still lingering: "Does the South China Company need to be captured alive?"

"He is the head of the Golden Tooth Group, burdened with countless blood debts. He is in charge of arms dealing and drug trafficking. He also deals in congenital superhumans."

Before Xia Linyuan could finish speaking, Chen Duo interrupted, "So, is it to kill or capture alive?"

Xia Linyuan looked at Chen Duo and actually felt a numbness from this young girl. Her voice, which was originally ethereal like a secluded valley, sounded cold at this moment. That completely indifferent tone made Xia Linyuan feel a little awkward.

“You represent South China, and I represent East China. I can’t make a definitive judgment on this matter.”

"But since I invited you, you can choose."

Chen Duo pursed her lips slightly: "Kill."

Xia Linyuan smiled: "I respect your choice."

Xia Linyuan knew that whether Jin Dayazi was executed on the spot or captured alive and brought back to the company, the final outcome would be death.

However, once a criminal of Jin Dayazi's caliber is handed over to the company, Xia Linyuan has no right to interfere and can only receive a final notification.

Real death, fake death.

There is nothing concrete in front of us.

Xia Linyuan felt uneasy.

“Your eyes are red,” Chen Duo suddenly said.

"I learned it from my master." Xia Linyuan said nonchalantly, "My master has this state, and whenever he becomes like this, he becomes very terrifying."

"In order to save my life, I learned a little bit about how to fall into a state similar to madness or stress simply by relaxing my nerves that are holding my rationality in place and then focusing on a certain event or goal."

The body's utilization rate and the perception of malice are almost twice as high as usual. The only drawback is that if one indulges too much, reason can easily be lost.

"Oh." Chen Duo nodded calmly.

Xia Linyuan thought Chen Duo didn't believe him, so he explained, "I'm not bloodthirsty, I just have a bit of a sense of injustice."

Jin Dayazi had already closed his eyes and was waiting to die.

But after waiting for a long time, death still hadn't come, and he was tormented by the thought.

He opened his eyes groggily, a cold smile playing on his lips.

Hatred of evil?

Hehe, I get it. You must want to torture me, right? You want to see me beg for mercy and repent, right?

Ah, it must be.

You must want to hear my desperate screams!

Don't even think about it!

Having worked in this line of work for so many years, Jin Dayazi clearly knows the path he's on and the things he's done.

Once caught, the consequences will be dire.

In despair, a fighting spirit is ignited.

He channeled all the Qi in his body and forcefully squeezed it towards his heart.

There was a pop.

A burst of blood erupted from the chest of the dying Jin Dayazi.

Xia Linyuan and Chen Duo exchanged glances: "He committed suicide."

"It's a pity he didn't die at our hands." Xia Linyuan bent down to check, to make sure it wasn't some kind of tortoise breathing technique.

Clench your fist and unleash your full power to slam it hard onto the corpse.

Blood splattered onto Xia Linyuan's fair face, making him appear somewhat crazed...

After a few punches, Jin Daya's body was pierced through.

Make sure he is dead beyond any possibility of dying.

Xia Linyuan then gave up his act of torturing the corpse.

However, Chen Duo's gaze towards Xia Linyuan became even stranger.

Xia Linyuan understood the meaning in Chen Duo's eyes, and his lips twitched. I really don't have any special fetishes.

Chapter 174 Want some candy?

Xia Linyuan was about to burn Jin Dayazi's body when he suddenly remembered something, his face stiffened, and he felt as if someone had gripped his heart.
