Chapter 262 Advice from the East

When Zhou Yushi saw Tang Xueji taking action, he thought that everything was over, because so far no one had survived Tang Xueji's serious killing intent.

However, just before Tang Xueji's hand that was aimed directly at the opponent's thin neck touched the target, the flying white satin bent back in a neat posture, wrapped around Cynthia White's neck faster than Tang Xueji, and then pulled her back suddenly.

Tang Xueji's attack missed. She paused and her intact right eyeball, which was originally exposed, moved and stared at the white satin on Cynthia's neck, revealing a fierce look.

What frightened Cynthia was that the gray and turbid left eye of the Asian face in front of her seemed to have a subtle movement that could see through her completely from the inside out, and that subtle assessment seemed to be weighing whether or not to kill her.

And she really had a feeling that she was going to be killed without mercy.

Tang Xueji stepped forward, dodged and flew behind Cynthia, catching her steadily. The moment she got close, the white satin swooshed back to her face and tied itself automatically, covering her left eye.

"I'm sorry, I recognized the wrong person just now. I didn't mean to attack you." Tang Xueji helped Cynthia to stand firmly and apologized in a very good manner.

“It’s... okay…” Cynthia turned her head to the other side, put her right hand on her left arm which was already covered with goose bumps, and subconsciously resisted the person who had just threatened her life and death.

Tang Xueji noticed it, and she tactfully let go of her hand, focusing one eye on Cynthia's moon-like silver hair and her pair of lively green eyes. She heard footsteps, and Zhou Yushi caught up with Tang Xueji carrying Tang Yu.

"Help me translate," Tang Xueji, who had just been speaking English, turned around and spoke to them in Chinese, "I want to give her a few words as compensation."

Zhou Yushi was stunned. He nodded and said a few words in a gentle voice to comfort Cynthia, who was looking around anxiously waiting for someone to come. Tang Xueji's eyes next to her gradually straightened and a clear voice like a bell spread out.

"Your life and death hang in the hands of those who are forced to be cold-blooded. Driven by external circumstances, they are often forced to make decisions against their will. However, if their bottom line is broken, they will rise up. Even if there is no war, disputes will arise suddenly. Fortunately, they still have a strong sense of responsibility. If you can stay in their shadow and make them feel that they are committed to you, then those who really want to endanger your life will also be afraid of their backlash, like throwing a rat and being afraid of the weapon, they will hesitate and dare not act rashly."

Cynthia looked at the woman who suddenly acted like a charlatan in surprise, but Zhou Yushi did not give her time to react. He immediately relayed Tang Xueji's words in fluent and elegant English. Cynthia did not take it seriously at first, but the more she listened, the more she matched herself with the others in the story.

Not only Cynthia, Zhou Yushi also met the right person. He almost immediately understood that Tang Xueji had pointed out the girl's benefactor this time, and this benefactor was Della Riddle.

A breeze blew at this moment, and between the flying silver hair, Zhou Yushi caught a glimpse of the black snake mark on the girl's neck, which reminded him of Della.

"What were you telling me just now?" Cynthia grabbed Zhou Yushi's sleeve eagerly, "Is it a prophecy?"

"Just a few suggestions," Zhou Yushi looked at Cynthia calmly, and with the gesture of politely pulling Cynthia's hand away, he pinched Cynthia's wrist, "Don't take it too seriously, after all, it might just be a joke from Dongfang."

The age can be seen from the sculpture, that it is a human, but the touch... I don’t know if it’s because of preconceived notions, but Zhou Yushi feels that the touch is very similar to an extremely soft metal material that he has touched before.

Zhou Yushi wasn't quite sure, because the touch of that material was very similar to human skin, and that material was very precious, and he had only touched it once, so he couldn't make a judgment.

And whether in terms of external image or internal reaction logic, Zhou Yushi has never seen any relevant papers.

But, this is about Della Riddle...

The idea of ​​using alchemy to create living people is obviously a horrifying one, but for a genius like Riddle who may have already broken through his limits, it is not so unacceptable.

"Oriental joke?!" Cynthia raised her voice, obviously dissatisfied with the answer. She was a little angry and didn't seem to have any intention of hiding her emotions. However, before she could ask further questions, a steady and hoarse voice called her.

"Cynthia! Cynthia!" A man with a lot of silver hair mixed in his brown hair came running towards them. His clothes were patched in a lot and he looked very poor, but his clothes were neat and tidy and he didn't look disgusting.

Zhou Yushi watched the middle-aged man walking towards him and observed him carefully, thinking that this would be useful information.

"Mr. Lupin, I'm fine." Cynthia looked at Remus Lupin, the guardian arranged for her by Dumbledore, and calmed down a little.

"It's my fault. I didn't expect something like this to happen tonight." Lupin looked at Cynthia and Lily's faces, which were 80% similar. The self-blame in his tone was almost terrifying. "School is about to start. I was really worried that something would happen to you."

"Are you her guardian, sir?" Zhou Yushi said gently and distantly. He walked back to Tang Xueji and Tang Yu, "We feel relieved with you around. It's time for us to leave."

"They helped you, didn't they?" Lupin turned to ask Cynthia. After receiving a reluctant nod from her, he immediately thanked the three of them. "Thank you so much."

"It's my pleasure, sir." Zhou Yushi smiled, and the three of them left under Cynthia's somewhat unwilling look.

"Are you really okay, Cynthia?"

"Are you scared? Oh - that makes you sound too vulnerable. My bad."

"But I've been worried. After all, there are so many people here. I don't know if you can adapt..."

The man's incessant caring voice behind him became quieter and quieter. Zhou Yushi looked back several times, and then found the right opportunity to take a photo with Yin Xin.

"Why are you secretly taking photos of me?!" Tang Yun whispered, "You already have such a beautiful girlfriend!"

"Why don't you ask Sister Xueji why she wanted to kill her?" Zhou Yushi said as he edited a message for Della. "I personally think her behavior was more excessive than mine."

"Yes!" Tang Yu was easily led astray. He asked Tang Xueji again, "Don't deny it. If it wasn't for 'Po Wang' pulling that girl, she would have definitely died!"

"Who said that Powang wanted to save her? He was originally going to hang her," Tang Xueji said calmly, "It was at the moment when he hanged her that he saw through the illusion and saved her."

"What did that girl do wrong?" Tang Yun frowned, but did not dare to ask too much, for fear that she might be a Death Eater who was good-looking but cruel.

"I was wrong. I thought she possessed someone else's body," Tang Xueji said thoughtfully, looking up. "Even now, I still think she possessed someone else's body. But seeing is not always believing. I have really learned that."

“Seize…seize…seize the body?” Tang Yu’s eyes widened.

"..." Zhou Yushi listened, glanced at Tang Xueji, and brought up another topic, "You said before that Riddle and the others were going to be surrounded and suppressed--"

"Is there an inevitable war?" Tang Yu continued Zhou Yushi's conversation. The curiosity burning in his heart finally drove away all the trance of the night.

"Why are you so fierce and like to shout and kill so much?" Tang Xueji looked at Tang Yu in confusion, and glanced at Zhou Yushi, "Everything here has nothing to do with us. That sentence is just my most objective and fair evaluation of their abilities."

"It's based on your ability," Zhou Yushi came to his senses, his eyebrows moving oddly, "One for one is fine, but one for two is not. So you want to encircle and suppress them?"

"Your brain works really fast, Yu Shi. Unfortunately, the situation is not that simple. There may be a third difficult person behind," Tang Xueji suddenly stopped and looked sideways at the dark night sky on the right. "But it doesn't matter. I will die anyway."

"What?" Tang Yu followed Tang Xueji's line of sight. The dark green magic light cut through the night sky as he turned his head. He looked at the skulls and snakes that instantly formed in the sky and continued to rise, and muttered the question he was about to ask, "Are you saying that the Riddles will die... Sister Xueji..."

"Death is the end of everything in the world. You and I will reach that end, and they will naturally do the same," Tang Xueji said indifferently, "You are talking nonsense, Xiaoyun."

The Dark Mark stopped for a short while before the red light came up again. The three of them looked at the familiar flag and their breathing held. Even Tang Xueji opened his eyes widely, which was rare.

"The Magical Unity Alliance in the E-Ross magic world," Zhou Yushi was the first to react. He looked at the new mark in the air that did not disappear no matter how many times it was hit by magic, and his expression was a little strange. "When I went to E-Ross to play before, I listened to the speech of the founder of the organization, Leon Isaev. He was already very old at that time, and his health did not look good, but his speech was still very moving."

"The time when your good roommate in school invited you over to play?" Tang Yu often communicated with Zhou Yushi through letters, and he quickly located the message.

"Well... I really miss Mikhail," Zhou Yushi said, his words not really in sync. He looked at the red mark in the sky, as if he had figured something out. His eyes twitched for a moment, and then he turned to ask Tang Xueji, "Sister, things don't seem so chaotic now. Can you take Xiao Yun with you?"

"No problem," Tang Xueji said, "Just go if you have something to do, and we'll see you in the tent then."

"What else do you want to do, cousin?" Tang Yun asked.

"Maybe he's going to blackmail someone, or maybe he's just asking for trouble." Zhou Yushi held his forehead and shook his head, then walked into the deep woods under Tang Yu's puzzled gaze.
