...There was no opening remarks or pleasantries.

Yevgeny waited patiently for a while and found that the other party just gave his name. He felt a little embarrassed, but still forced himself to introduce himself.

Ivan is much the same.

The two of them were completely discouraged at this moment...after what Chen Lusi and Zhang Xiufeng had done at the door just now.

"..."

Ji Xin nodded slowly upon hearing this, then went straight to the point, "So, what exactly do you want to do here? 'Exchange and learn'? What do you want to discuss? Also, do you want to meet Chen Lusi in person to explain the misunderstanding from a while ago? Well, now he's sitting right in front of you, you can tell me what you want to explain now."

Yevgeny and Ivan looked at each other, and were a little caught off guard by Ji Xin's direct and straightforward response.

Mainly because all the plans were disrupted.

At this time, Ji Xin's attitude was almost aggressive, which really made it difficult for them to cope.

"...Ji Xin Tiance."

Yevgeny managed to calm himself down and organize his words: "Actually, the main reason we came here this time is to apologize. Not only to Chen Lusi, but also to your Tiance Mansion. Anna from our Ross Church was indeed not calm at the time.

Not only is he responsible for this, but our entire Ross Church is responsible."

Ji Xin nodded and motioned for him to continue.

"Whatever she saw, she shouldn't have taken an ally's weapon."

Yevgeny paused at this point and glanced at the others imperceptibly.

But when Chen Lusi and Xia Yue heard the word "weapon", their expressions did not change at all.

He was a little disappointed, but he didn't show it on his face. Instead, he continued, "We had no objection to you killing her on the spot, but... she is her, and the saint she is carrying does not belong to her, but to the entire Ross Church.

I believe the saints did not agree with her doing that, so..."

"understood."

Ji Xin said coldly: "You are here to ask for something."

Yevgeny smiled bitterly and said, "Ji Xintiance, that was the first saint canonized by this Holy See Patriarch after he ascended the throne..."

"Then where do you think the weapon Anna wanted to steal came from?"

Ji Xin turned his head expressionlessly to look at Chen Lusi... Zhang Xiufeng behind him said, "That was the result of the hard work of several generations of our entire Taoist community, and the painstaking efforts of this very Chen Lusi. If it had really been stolen, not to mention the first saint canonized by your Holy See Patriarch after his ascension to the throne, even if your Holy See Patriarch himself had come out to apologize, it wouldn't have been enough to cause an all-out war."

"..."

Zhang Xiufeng frowned slightly, still thinking about what had just happened, and didn't hear Ji Xin's words at all.

In Yevgeny's eyes, his look was an expression of dissatisfaction.

No wonder the Dragon Tiger Mountain Heavenly Master is here...

It turns out that the weapons mentioned by the Sikopuchi sect are related to Taoism?

Yevgeny's thoughts raced.

the other side.

Chen Lusi had a wooden face.

Don't know what to say.

Since when did the Heavenly Punishment Weapon become related to Taoism for generations?

And does my own work count as exhausting all my efforts?

"But……"

Although Yevgeny got some of the information he wanted, the situation was indeed a bit tricky. He stretched out his dry arm, gently pinched the edge of the table, and wanted to continue saying something.

"Nothing but."

Ji Xin shook her head slightly, then looked at him: "You want to redeem Anna, you want to redeem the first saint canonized after your Holy See Patriarch ascended the throne, then you must show sincerity. Everyone can apologize lightly. If you are willing, I can let our Tang Yu Tiance apologize to you every day.

But does this make sense? It makes no sense at all. You have to know that Anna hurt not only Chen Lusi, but also everyone in Tiance Mansion and the entire Taoism.

We are close neighbors and have an alliance, yet you treat us like this and then try to get away with it by simply apologizing. There's no such thing as that.

If you really want to apologize, it would be better to have your Holy See Patriarch come here."

Yevgeny was silent for a moment: "...The Patriarch of the Holy See has been bedridden for many years."

Ji Xin said directly: "Then abdicate and replace him with a new Patriarch."

Yevgeny: "..."

"We can discuss this matter later, but can we meet Anna?"

At this time.

Ivan, who had been silent just now, suddenly spoke.

Ji Xin narrowed his eyes and looked at Ivan beside him.

"I know her crime is unforgivable, and I also know she has damaged the harmony between us... But she is a member of the Ross Church after all. We hope to personally ask her what she was thinking at the time, and learn from her mistakes."

Ivan took a deep breath and said politely, "This will also effectively prevent similar incidents from happening again. Please be sure to agree to this."

When Yevgeny heard this, he immediately knew what Ivan wanted to do and responded, "That's right, Ji Xintiance, please agree to us."

anyway.

In the end what happened.

The one who knew the most clearly was Anna, who had the highest rank at the time.

The Tiance Mansion was on guard against them. If they wanted to thoroughly understand what happened at that time, the best way was to find Anna and ask her in person.

"..."

This time, Ji Xin did not speak immediately, but fell into silence.

She wasn't sure what this Ivan's intentions were, nor was she sure what that Anna would say.

So there was some hesitation.

But the hesitation didn't last long.

"can."

Ji Xin raised his head, then suddenly looked at Chen Lusi: "But Chen Lusi needs to accompany you."

Ivan: "This..."

"The person involved has not apologized to this day."

Ji Xin interrupted directly: "As the injured party, doesn't Chen Lusi deserve an apology from the person involved?"

"..."

Ivan and Yevgeny were speechless.

The atmosphere became stagnant.

"I'm going to get some air."

What about the efforts of several generations of Taoism, what about the painstaking efforts, and what about the hurt party.

It feels like it's getting more and more outrageous.

Chen Lusi felt helpless, and suddenly stood up and made a request.

Ji Xin looked at him and nodded slowly.

Chen Lusi glanced at Ivan and Yevgeny, then walked out of the meeting room with the cat.

call--

Just walked out of the meeting room.

Chen Lusi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Aren't you used to it?"

suddenly.

The conference room door was pushed open again.

Xia Yue came out and asked with a smile.

Chen Lusi nodded: "A little bit, but more importantly, I don't like that kind of scene."

"same here."

Xia Yue nodded, then leaned against the wall and said softly, "But these things must be done. This is why I didn't object to Ji Xin taking power a few days ago, because she is indeed suitable for this.

However, this is obviously a good thing, and I have made it clear that I have no intention of competing with her for the position, but this little girl is still nervously guarding against me, fearing that I will usurp power. It's actually quite funny."

Speaking of which.

He couldn't help but smile.

Chen Lusi: "..."

Xia Yue laughed for a moment, then suddenly asked, "Do you know why she wanted to drag Taoism into this?"

Chen Lusi shook his head.

"Because Ji Xin wants to integrate the currently scattered enablers in the country, not only Taoism, but also other miscellaneous organizations and groups. She wants them all to become part of Tiance Mansion."

Xia Yue explained, "She obviously knew what happened downstairs just now, so she suddenly came up with an idea and used the Heavenly Punishment Weapon and the people of the Chamomile Alliance to tie Taoism and Tiance Mansion together first.

Regardless of whether this matter is true or false, as long as the Chamomile Alliance spreads the news and the Heavenly Punishment Weapon is released later, Taoism will have to admit it even if it doesn't want to. After all, some things will become true if they are widely spread, and the cost of refuting the rumors is too high.

Believe it or not, if Buddhism wasn't so irrelevant, she would have even dared to say that Buddhism was involved in the Heavenly Punishment Weapon?"

Chen Lusi: "..."

"To be honest, your appearance has indeed opened a lot of doors for her."

Xia Yue said softly, "She not only used you to ease the relationship between the Tiance Mansion and the security forces, but also used you to establish her authority. Now she's even using the Heavenly Punishment weapons you invented to kidnap people aboard. You are truly a lucky star to her.

As for your opinion of her... I don't know yet, but Chen Lusi, I hope you can promise me one thing."

Chen Lusi was a little curious: "What?"

"Don't become a knife in Ji Xin's hands."

Xia Yue pointed at himself and said, "Especially when I'm not around, she's capable and courageous, but her personality is indeed extreme. She needs an external threat to stay within the circle and play by her own rules. If there's no external threat, she might jump out of the circle and directly crown herself, such as becoming the dictator queen of Tiance Mansion.

Currently, I am the one who is posing as the threat because she knows that I have the ability to get her fired or even beat her to death.

If I'm not here, I want you to take on this role, not as a knife in her hand, but as a knife hanging over her head... a role that can completely overturn the chessboard."

229.

"Overturn the chessboard?"

Chen Lusi murmured and repeated Xia Yue's words, then continued, "I don't think I'm suitable for this role. You should take it. Besides, I don't have a hobby of being someone else's swordsman. In fact, I'm not familiar with Ji Xin."

Xia Yue looked at Chen Lusi for a moment, then suddenly chuckled softly: "...That's true, after all, you don't even know her real name."

Chen Lusi was curious when he heard this: "Real name?"

"Ji Xin is a name she changed later. Her original name was Chu Xin."

Xia Yue casually explained, "The name Ji Xin was actually given to her to tease her own deformity. She probably knew she was extreme... but it's more likely that she was teasing herself about not being able to walk. After all, she has always been brooding over it. This is probably what women do, with their inexplicable obsessions.

Her previous name seemed fine, and it doesn't matter if she can't walk. A person's value shouldn't be affected by physical defects."

"..."

Chen Lusi looked back at the conference room without saying anything. He was not as straight as Xia Yue, but he could not empathize with Ji Xin either. After all, he had no experience of mobility problems. It would be a lie to say that he could understand her.

Xia Yue leaned against the wall and continued, "Let's get back to the topic just now. You said I would take the role, but I may not be there all the time. For example, wasn't I there some time ago?"

Chen Lusi came back to his senses: "Aren't you back now?"

Xia Yue smiled and said, "What if I have to travel far away again?"
