After spending some time together, Fiona discovered that Beichen was very nice to her.

Every day he looks heartless and entrusts himself with all kinds of confidential documents sent by Hayasaka, and has an inexplicable trust in him.

Therefore, she did not have too many doubts about these documents. After only basic verification, she sent them back to the branch.

Originally, she was considering whether to develop Beichen into an informant, so that it would be easier for her to complete various assigned tasks.

Now the truth is out.

Beichen didn't trust her, but he teamed up with Sigong to deliberately leak the information to her.

She even suspected that there was misleading information in the intelligence.

Fiona felt a chill run down her spine when she thought that her mistakes might put her colleagues in trouble or that she might be used as a gun by Shinomiya to eliminate the enemy using the power of Ying.

He wanted to inform the branch as soon as possible, but now Sigong and Beichen have the evidence that he passed on wrong information, and he doesn't understand their real purpose.

If you act rashly, it may lead to greater losses.

Thinking of this, Fiona's face was clouded with gloom. Her already expressionless face looked even colder now.

"Fiona! You made the same mistake as those fools. You are so arrogant and blind! You judge others by their age."

"It's impossible to even think about it. How could a girl who climbed to a high position by being a concubine's daughter, a disciple of the most powerful being, be so simple just by relying on Master Zero's cultivation?"

"Where's your brain?"

"Where's your vigilance?"

"You deserve to die!"

Beichen didn't know what Fiona was thinking, but he at least understood that Fiona would definitely worry that there was something wrong with the information he gave her, so he spoke to comfort her:

"Don't worry, the information I gave you is fine."

“That’s good… Hey! No! How could I be so useless as to believe it so easily!?”

After hearing Beichen's words, Fiona just breathed a sigh of relief, but then she raised it again.

"What is your purpose?" Fiona asked.

"Purpose? There is no purpose." Beichen spread his hands, "I just think it's fun."

"You see, I know you're a spy, but you don't know that I know you're a spy."

"That is to say, all your actions are performances in my eyes. It's a good thing to watch a real-life spy drama every day~"

"..." The remarks were full of bad taste, and Fiona didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Don't believe it?" Fiona nodded, then shook her head.

The luck in her heart made her hope that what Beichen said was true, but Beichen's previous behavior made her dare not believe it completely.

"If you don't believe me, you can go ask Hayasaka. After all, they were planning to squeeze out all your value and then get rid of you."

"You should thank me. It was me who asked you to come here."

"I believe this." Fiona nodded.

She had been wondering why she was suddenly transferred to Beichen. Even if she went down to rescue Beichen, she shouldn't have entered the core right away.

At first, I just thought it was just my good luck, or that Beichen liked me.

Now it seems that he is attracted to me, but he is attracted to my acting talent...

"Damn you little brat, don't I have any charm at all?"

"So, there's no need for you to be so nervous. If I wanted to kill you, there's no need to go through so much trouble."

"Please take out your other hand. That toy can't hurt me, but it will blow you to death."

Fiona then realized that because she was nervous, she subconsciously put her hand in her pocket and held the explosive phone.

Taking the phone out of her trouser pocket, Fiona pretended to be calm and said:

"How do you know it can't hurt you? Under a close-range explosion, even if you are a Level 7 Transcendent, you will be seriously injured."

Hearing this, Beichen shrugged, reached out to take the phone, and tossed it back and forth in his hands.

During this process, Fiona's whole body was tense and she dared not move.

She didn't know what Beichen was going to do, but she knew that there was an aura locking onto her. If she dared to act recklessly, she might smear Beichen's face with blood in the next second.

"The Shinomiya family's guards? No, the only level 8 guard Kaguya had rebelled."

"Is that Master Zero?"

"That's right. It's only natural for you to come and see what your only disciple is doing when he's being attacked."

Thinking of this, Fiona felt both excited and scared.

She admires the strong and desires the sense of security that the strong bring, which makes her look forward to Zero's arrival.

However, the exposure of her identity cast a shadow over her heart.

"Will Master Zero think I'm a despicable woman?"

"...I think so. After knowing my identity, anyone would think that I am a woman who will do anything to achieve my goal."

As she thought this, Fiona's eyes gradually lost their luster.

Beichen, who was playing with his phone, did not notice the change in the other person's expression, and just spoke to himself:

"Oh, level 7?" Beichen's tone was full of mockery, "When did I tell you that I'm only level 6. Huh?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Beichen grabbed the phone that was spinning in the air again and squeezed it hard.

"No! The program has been activated..." Fiona subconsciously wanted to stop it.

Before she could finish her words, she saw a scene that shocked her.

The moment the phone was crushed by Beichen, a dazzling blue energy burst out, and then... nothing happened.

Just as this energy was about to explode, it was restrained by an unknown force field and collapsed towards Beichen's fist until it disappeared.

There was no sound except the sound of the phone debris falling.

The sudden change shocked Fiona so much that she was speechless. She opened her thin lips slightly and stared blankly at Beichen who had a calm expression.

After a long while, he finally stammered, "You...you are Lord Ling?"

"Wow! You're not slow to react! You deserve praise."

Seeing that Fiona did not think that she was hiding her strength, but insisted on her identity, Beichen patted her head with satisfaction.

It was the first time that Fiona was patted on the head, and she tensed up all over.

Seeing that the other party seemed very uncomfortable, Beichen curled his lips, said "boring" to himself, and withdrew his hand.

Beichen had just decided to reveal his alias while on the road.

After this assassination attempt, his true strength would definitely be guessed by the mastermind behind the scenes.

Moreover, as eyewitnesses at the scene, Kaguya and Hayasaka will guess their identities after returning home and calming down.

But whether it is the mastermind behind the scenes or Kaguya and the others, they will not spread it on their own initiative.

The former didn't dare to do so. Revealing Beichen's strength would not only do him no good, but would put him in danger.

After all, if someone attacks a level 9, or even level 10 transcendent, any force that knows about it will rush to help Beichen find him.

The latter also didn't dare, because they knew that since Beichen used a pseudonym, it meant that Beichen didn't want to expose his true strength.
