Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey! Chapter 1175 - 281: Zhao Ya: Chen 94, Why Can’t You Understa

Everyone’s expression was one of shock, their eyes filled with confusion, doubt, and bewildernt.

Why does the Ruyang King insist on killing Chen Jiusi?

In contrast, Chen Jie remained calm, looking at everyone present, he said: "Gentlen, do not be deceived by this person."

Deceived!

Everyone was stunned, turning to look at Elder Xie, full of suspicion, this traitor had lied.

Elder Xie also looked livid as he stared at Chen Jie and said: "Chen Jiusi, you’re at death’s door, and you still speak of deceit? Do you think a few words can save your life?"

With that, Elder Xie looked at the Mother Gu and said: "Mother Gu, this is the Prince’s request. If we don’t see this person’s head, there’s no need to continue negotiations!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone’s face in the room changed, as they were truly afraid that the Mother Gu would agree to Elder Xie’s demand, but they were also afraid she would not agree.

If she agreed, they would have to kill Chen Jiusi, but Chen Jiusi had done them great favors.

But if she didn’t agree, what if the people from the Prince Mansion really surrounded the cave and didn’t retreat? There were provisions in the cave, but it would only be enough for everyone for half a year, and what about after half a year?

Moreover, with so many people living underground for a long ti, problems might arise, and what if they beca sick then?

Isn’t this like being imprisoned?

Everyone’s expressions were unpleasant.

Just then, suddenly Linglong jumped up and said: "Mother, you cannot kill Brother Chen, without him, I would be dead!"

As she spoke, she stood protectively in front of Chen Jie like a hen shielding her chick, but her small figure looked sowhat comical in front of the tall Chen Jie.

Hearing this, the Mother Gu looked at Chen Jie, she thought Chen Jie would be uneasy, but Chen Jie remained calm and composed.

As if Elder Xie hadn’t just said he wanted to kill him.

The Mother Gu couldn’t help but admire him inwardly, composed in the face of danger, a remarkable person indeed, it’s a pity he’s not Miao, otherwise, he could be Linglong’s husband and help her secure the position of Sect Hierarch.

With this thought, she looked at Chen Jie and said: "Mr. Chen, the Ruyang King said he wants to use your head as bargaining leverage, we’re quite torn, is there anything you can teach us, Mr. Chen?"

Chen Jie smiled and said to the Mother Gu: "Mother Gu, it’s my humble fortune if Jiu Si’s life can be placed on the negotiation table between the Five Poison Sect and the Ruyang King Mansion, but I just want to say, Mother Gu must not be deceived."

Mother Gu was taken aback, looking at Chen Jie and said: "What do you an? How could I be deceived?"

Chen Jie smiled and said: "Mother Gu, have you heard of the story ’The Fox Borrows the Tiger’s Might’?"

Mother Gu shook her head, and everyone else also looked at Chen Jie curiously because they hadn’t heard of the story either.

At this mont, Chen Jie spoke: "Then I will tell you all, it’s about a fox and a tiger appearing at the sa ti in a dense forest, and the animals in the forest all showed deep fear. Who do you think they were afraid of, the fox or the tiger?"

After hearing this, everyone fell into deep thought, and after a while, Mother Gu said: "So, Elder Xie is the fox?"

The others also looked toward Elder Xie.

And Elder Xie angrily said: "Chen Jiusi, what fox, what tiger, nonsense, Li Chunhua, are you not going to capture this person quickly? Or do you truly wish to lead the Five Poison Sect to ruin?"

Upon hearing Elder Xie’s words, everyone in the room was shocked, then one by one, they ground their teeth and said: "Shaless scoundrel, do you dare to call the Mother Gu by her na? Are you tired of living?"

Elder Xie looked defiant and said: "What’s wrong with calling a na? We grew up together; when we were young, we called each other by our nas. Now that we’re old, we have to distinguish high and low. I refuse!"

"Fine, I won’t waste words with you all today, I just ask you whether you’re going to kill Chen Jiusi, or not?"

Once this was said, everyone looked at the Mother Gu, such a major issue must be decided by her.

The Mother Gu slightly curled her lips and said: "Heh, this matter should be decided by Mr. Chen, since Mr. Chen claims ’The Fox Borrows the Tiger’s Might’, there must be a reason, right?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Jie said: "Mother Gu, it’s tily that you speak, let’s not discuss whether Elder Xie truly acts on the Ruyang King’s orders to kill or why the Ruyang King would order so."

"Even if the Ruyang King did order it, what would Mother Gu do then?"

"Really obey and kill , then wouldn’t Mother Gu beco the Ruyang King’s subordinate, how can you negotiate under such circumstances, starting off at a disadvantage? I advise Mother Gu to lead her people directly to surrender to the court, maybe you can still earn a chance to survive!!"

"Insolent!"

Chen Jie’s words instantly enraged the hot-tempered Elder Jin Chan, but the Mother Gu raised her hand to stop Elder Jin Chan, then looked at Chen Jie and said: "Continue!"

Chen Jie said: "Negotiation is sowhat like doing business, you can’t let people see your cards at once, bargaining is a mutual ga of gaining advantages."

"Even if the Ruyang King’s demand to kill is genuine, if you really do as he asks, a cunning and calculating person like the Ruyang King would imdiately know that you won’t last long. If I were the Ruyang King, I would definitely take it further, propose even harsher conditions, making it harder for you to accept, and step by step test your limits."

"He’ll squeeze everything out of you."

The crowd fell silent at these words; it was indeed as Chen Jie said.

If they truly agreed to all of the Ruyang King’s terms, he would assu they were easy to bully, and wouldn’t he then ask for the sky?
