Chapter 675: Real Acting Skills, Negotiable Deals
Lin Yu did know from the beginning that something was wrong with that "Chen Yuanye". Otherwise, he would not have chosen to let Xuan Yunzi take out Xie Chong's remains here and quickly get the magic talisman from him.
It would be nice to go to Xian Town and investigate slowly, but... this Thousand-Eyed Thousand-Threaded Demon Lord is too weird, and Lin Yu doesn't want to create any more trouble.
Although its ability has not been effective on his group so far, the experience of the Charmander trio has made Lin Yu clear... the ability of the Thousand-Eyed Thousand-Threaded Demon Lord is definitely not ineffective against players.
If this goes on, the involvement in cause and effect will become deeper and deeper, and maybe the "thread of cause and effect" will really come knocking on your door!
Therefore, it is best to let the other party come to you on their own initiative.
Judging from the behavior of "Chen Yuanye" and the currently known information, Lin Yu could easily find out one thing - the other party coveted Xie Chong's body, and there was another body of Xie Chong here.
If Xie Chong's remains weren't enough to convince the other party to risk coming, then...
Another one!
Facts have proved that Lin Yu's speculation was correct.
The "Chen Yuanye" standing in front of him now just illustrates this point.
However, after seeing through Chen Yuanye's arrangement, Lin Yu did not feel any sense of accomplishment.
Because he guessed wrong in one point - "Chen Yuanye" did not rely on acting skills to play "Chen Yuanye", but really released the consciousness and personality of "Chen Yuanye" himself.
Although this misjudgment was not a big deal, Lin Yu himself was very concerned about it.
Because for Lin Yu, he is now like a magic master who discovered a wonderful street magic show that could make people come alive. He is itching to show his skills and feels as if he has met a close friend. He goes up to the other person and talks to him, only to find out that the other person is not performing magic. The principle of making people come alive is actually that he knows magic and uses teleportation to teleport people away.
"I actually couldn't tell that it wasn't acting..."
Fortunately, Lin Yu adjusted his mentality quickly - after all, he knew that he had been to the [copy] and could not come here to exchange acting skills.
"At least this shows that my level of acting skills are not something that just anyone can achieve."
Lin Yu thought about it, then exhaled and looked at the "Chen Yuanye" in front of him.
"Well, since you have this ability, then I assume that you were the one who commissioned the Jinfu Escort Agency's Guzhen branch to escort Xie Chong's body, right?"
Chen Yuanye chuckled softly, "Smart, Junior Sister."
As he spoke, he snapped his fingers, and then a short and fat man dressed like a landlord or wealthy businessman walked out from the shadows, with a black mole on his face, and spoke slowly.
"Although I've never seen you before, I'm pleasantly surprised. You 'outsiders,'" this "Chen Yuanye" whispered. "I'm afraid you're quite a formidable figure among the outsiders, right?"
"I'm just a nobody," Lin Yu said, waving his hand. "It's just a coincidence that I can see through your arrangements. What I'm more curious about is who you are. Are you the clone of the Thousand-Eyed Thousand-Threaded Demon Lord?"
Chen Yuanye sneered, "Me? Of course not... Although I can indeed use the Thousand-Eyed Thousand-Thread Demon Lord's 'Cause and Effect Thread' magical power, I am indeed a genuine human!"
After saying this, Lin Yu didn't express any opinion, but Xuan Yunzi couldn't help it.
"Nonsense, nothing but lies—even if you were once human, your sinister and treacherous methods of resurrecting and inhabiting other people's bodies clearly show you've fallen into the realm of a demon or beast!"
Xuan Yunzi glared and cursed, but Chen Yuanye said nothing more.
"There's no point in talking to you any more. Hand over Xie Chong's body immediately, and I'll let you live!"
Chen Yuanye whispered, then waved again.
"Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"
As Chen Yuanye spoke, dark shadows appeared around him.
One after another, dark shadows appeared around Chen Yuanye - some were familiar faces to Lin Yu, escorts from Jinfu Escort Agency, while some were people Lin Yu didn't know at all.
Compared with the puppets encountered in Chenjiabao before, these black shadows are obviously not ordinary people, but warriors with martial arts skills.
Snow Owl snorted coldly: "You still want to threaten us, do you think I am afraid of your threats?"
Gao Shan also nodded: "That's right, if you want Xie Chong's body, then come and get it yourself!"
Seagull sighed helplessly: "Oh, we have to fight again... There's really nothing we can do!"
The righteous trio immediately prepared for battle.
Chen Yuanye sneered again: "Don't cry until you see the coffin - well, since I've left you a way out and you won't leave, don't blame me for being ruthless..."
Chen Yuanye was seen saying this as he was about to attack.
At this moment, Lin Yu raised his hand to interrupt him.
"Wait—I haven't spoken yet."
Lin Yu calmly took Xie Chong's body off his back and said, "This thing is in my hand. Why are you listening to their opinions? I didn't say I wouldn't agree to your request."
As soon as these words came out, Snowy Owl, Seagull and Gaoshan all looked at Lin Yu immediately.
"What are you doing?" Snow Owl frowned and scolded, "Are you planning to cooperate with the demons from the Prison Mountain Realm?"
Xuan Yunzi also spoke up immediately: "Absolutely not! Xie Chong's body must not fall into the hands of this evildoer!"
Gao Shan also tried to persuade Lin Yu: "This guy's origins are unknown, and he's in league with that spider. If you agree to cooperate with him, I'm afraid it will bring disaster to the people of this Prison Mountain Realm!"
"Yeah, how can we surrender?"
Seagull echoed.
Lin Yu didn't respond. Fei Dao whispered, "But, it's not that bad, right?"
Li Nian also crossed his arms and immediately supported Lin Yu: "Stop using moral blackmail here!"
Gao Shan added, "This isn't moral kidnapping... This guy is in league with the demons. Even if he gets the remains, he might not keep his promise. Besides, how are we supposed to get through this if he gets them?"
Not to mention the other players, even Chen Yuanye was stunned.
After a long moment, he finally said, "What do you mean?"
Lin Yu ignored the arguments behind him and just looked at Chen Yuanye leisurely and said, "It's not that I can't give you Xie Chong's body... You know, I'm an 'outsider' and I don't have any irreconcilable conflicts with this Thousand Eyes and Thousand Threads Demon Lord."
"So—as long as you can satisfy our purpose, there's nothing wrong with giving you this broken body."
Xuan Yunzi became anxious upon hearing this: "You...you really are lying to me! Asshole! I trusted you so much!"
Lin Yu ignored Xuan Yunzi and just looked at Chen Yuanye and spoke with interest.
"So, let me first confirm... What exactly are your plans for wanting Xie Chong's remains?"
