Monster, come to my bowl

Chapter 38 Heart of Hexagram 8

Under the watchful eyes of the two women and under tremendous pressure, Cai Ji thought for a while and finally made up his mind.

"hiss……"

He took a deep breath and explained, "I broke the knife in order to save Xue Yi's life. I used some mysterious power, and the knife couldn't hold up and broke!"

It was a concise and to the point sentence, finished in an instant.

There was no chance for the young lady to silence her.

Upon hearing this, Zhen Yourong and Xue Yi were stunned for a long while.

Both of them were a little caught off guard. They didn't expect that Cai Ji, who was just acting like a spoiled child, would suddenly become so frank!

In an instant, thoughts surged in Xue Yi's mind.

Cai Ji saved her life?

Did this break her demon-slaying sword?

Could it be that……

Did he cast the Holy Word on himself in his yard at that time?

At the same time, Zhen Yourong was also a little confused.

Cai Ji's answer seemed sloppy, but it did explain the reason why the demon-slaying sword broke into pieces.

If she expresses disbelief, both sides will just get into a stalemate.

She didn't want to argue.

She wants the truth!

Her gossip fire is burning!

The Sixth Senior Sister thought for a moment without moving, and then asked decisively, "What power?"

"Is this the third question?" Cai Ji asked back.

Zhen Yourong said nothing, but nodded with a smile.

"The legendary power." Cai Ji answered seriously.

Sixth Senior Sister said nothing and continued to look into his eyes.

Cai Ji was not afraid at all and looked her straight in the eye.

The four looked at each other, each with their own ulterior motives.

Bang!

Suddenly, someone slammed the table.

"Have you seen enough?" Xue Yi snorted with a straight face.

"I've seen enough." Cai Ji shrank his neck and muttered softly.

"Aiya, Junior Sister, why are you so fierce? I'm just taking a look, I won't do anything to him." Zhen Yourong stood up and said with a playful smile: "I'm going back to sleep. I'll go home after I finish my work tomorrow."

At this point, she glanced at Cai Ji again and said in a tender voice, "Boss Cai, after this separation, I don't know when we will meet again. Would you like to see me off?"

I'll give you a big head ghost!

You stinky woman!

Xue Yi cursed inwardly and curled his lips in disdain.

"No, no." Cai Ji shook his head repeatedly and said politely, "Have a safe journey."

"Hehe, thank you, Manager Cai, for your kind words." After Zhen Yourong finished speaking, she walked out of the door with a puff of smoke.

……

Snapped!

As soon as the Sixth Senior Sister left, Xue Yi slammed the table again.

The table is almost broken.

She stared at Cai Ji and asked angrily, "Didn't you swear not to reveal the truth to anyone?"

"It was you who swore, not me..." Cai Ji replied, scratching his bald head.

"You!!" Xue Yi was stunned, and then she remembered that she was the only one who swore to keep the secret. Cai Ji only said that he would help her translate the sacred text, and did not guarantee anything more.

So she got even angrier and made up a story: "You were just blinded by her beauty and were so obsessed with her that you even forgot your last name..."

"Stop!" Cai Ji stopped himself immediately when he saw that he was about to be drowned in saliva, "I didn't say anything just now!"

"You didn't say anything?" Xue Yi's cheeks turned red with anger, and he angrily said, "You have already told her that you can use the legendary power!"

"So what?" Cai Ji chuckled and asked, "Let me ask you, why does Sixth Senior Sister always come here?"

"Because...she suspects you!" Xue Yi replied.

"What do you suspect me of?" Cai Ji asked.

"I suspect your identity and background, and...the beauty-enhancing wine you made." Xue Yi continued to answer.

"Wrong! This is just the surface." Cai Ji slapped his thigh and squinted his eyes and said, "What she wants to know most is what ability I have that makes you and the master and the mistress treat me with courtesy! Ability is the key point!"

Xue Yi frowned and thought for a moment, then asked, "Even if what you said makes sense, why did you tell her the truth?"

"I didn't tell her the truth! I only said it was a legendary power!" Cai Ji spread his hands and said with a sly smile: "Since she has come to me, it means she believes that I have special abilities. If I deny anything, it will only increase her suspicion! Besides, there are many legendary powers. Let her investigate slowly! Even if she finds out, I haven't broken the law. What can she do to me?"

"What about me?" Xue Yi was dissatisfied.

"You didn't break the law." Cai Ji grinned and said comfortingly, "Your Demon Suppression Division doesn't have any rules that say that anyone who finds a certain expert must report it! Right?"

"There is no regulation, but..." Xue Yi was still a little hesitant.

"Don't say buts! We have a clear conscience and there is nothing to be afraid of." Cai Ji finished his argument and began to change the subject: "By the way, do you have any questions for me?"

"What's the problem?" Xue Yi didn't respond.

"Why don't you ask what's going on with those two bottles of wine?" Cai Ji smiled.

"Yes! What's the matter with those two bottles of wine?" Thinking of the bottle of miraculous wine that her mother drank, the eldest daughter was immediately drawn in.

"I did it using the Holy Word." Cai Ji replied.

"What?" Xue Yi was caught off guard and asked with a look of surprise, "You have figured it out?"

"I found it! Not only did I find the door, I also found the key." Cai Ji replied.

"Hurry up and tell me!" Xue Yi grabbed his arm and urged him excitedly.

"Come, let me tell you..." Upon seeing this, Cai Ji shamelessly stepped forward and pretended to whisper something in the young lady's ear.

Xue Yi subconsciously wanted to give him a big slap, but finally held back.

The power of the Holy Word is very important, so it is true that you should be careful about the walls having ears.

She endured the itch and began to nod her head while listening to Cai Ji's story: "Hmm...hmm...so that's how it is...oh...oh...quickly teach me!"

"Give me the money first!" After Cai Ji finished his story, he suddenly sat up straight and spread his hands.

"Give it if you want. Five hundred taels per word! Just figure out how much it is in total." The eldest lady had no concept of money and waved her hand nonchalantly.

"This is a sacred text I discovered myself, not translated from the fragments you found. Five hundred taels is not enough, at least two thousand taels per word." Cai Ji raised the price shamelessly, "To make a beauty wine, without the glowing special effect, there are seven words in total! Rounding it off, I'll give you twenty thousand taels!"

"Do you think I can't count? Ten thousand taels! Deal!" Xue Yi was not a fool either, and he immediately counterattacked with a big knife.

"Deal!" Cai Ji became rich instantly and immediately changed the subject, "But I have to remind you again that there is a price to pay for using the Holy Word. If you use it and end up with vomiting, diarrhea, irregular menstruation, or something like that... don't blame me."

"Why are you worrying so much?" Xue Yi blushed and rolled her eyes at him. "You should take care of your hair first! If it keeps falling out, you'll be bald!"

Snapped!

Cai Ji touched his bald head and said confidently, "Don't worry! Once the replica of the holy sword is made, I will use the Holy Word to make my hair flutter. I don't believe it won't flutter!"
