Are you stupid? I am the villain behind the scenes

When Yi Mu saw Hua Chaochao, his expression froze.

Hua Chaochao had changed back into Ye Xiao's outfit. She ignored the burning gaze and approached Hua Xi. "You don't look well. Do you need help?"

"Who are you?" Hua Xi looked alert.

Hua Chaochao paused for a moment before saying, "Miss Bai, have you forgotten? I am the assistant of the Hidden Web Master, Ye Xiao."

"Hidden Web Master?" Hua Xi said, "Sorry, my mind is a little confused right now."

"It's okay." Hua Chaochao said sympathetically.

Then he sighed again: "Miss Bai was attacked by the Beast King yesterday and was injured so badly that I thought you would be unconscious for several days."

Hua Xi keenly captured the key information.

Beast King?

Was my injury caused by the Beast King?

Then why did she go to Behemoth Ridge?

Hua Xi knew that the only place where the Beast King could appear was Giant Beast Ridge.

As more and more doubts arose, Hua Xi frowned. The confusion in her mind made her feel unprecedentedly confused, as if countless fine needles were piercing through her brain, causing unbearable pain.

She raised her hand involuntarily and tapped her temple gently, trying to relieve the pain.

Seeing this, Hua Chaochao asked worriedly, "What's wrong with you? Do you have a headache?"

Hua Xi put her hand down and said with all her might, "I'm fine."

Now is not the time to stop and rest. If another group of people comes, they will probably really die here.

She said to Yi Mu: "We have to leave quickly."

However, Yi Mu made an unexpected move. He held Hua Chaochao's hand tightly and said, "You come with us."

Hua Chaochao frowned slightly, with a hint of displeasure in her eyes, "Mr. Yi, you are very rude."

Hua Xi looked at Yi Mu with surprise.

He actually took the initiative to grab someone's hand?

This doesn't really look like him.

Yi Mu did not let go. His voice was trembling and pleading with a barely perceptible tremor: "I know it's you. The Li family is in danger. You can't stay here any longer."

What if you know? What can you do if I don't admit it?

Shaking his hand away fiercely, Hua Chaochao said unhappily: "First of all, thank you for your concern. Secondly, I'm saying this for the last time. You really have the wrong person. I'm not the one you know."

Yi Mu was unwilling to give up just like that.

He wanted to pull Hua Chaochao's hand again, but the latter dodged him swiftly.

Yi Mu still refused to give up. This time he held her tightly, then took out the blue shell that Hua Chaochao had given him and which he had always carried with him and carefully treasured, and placed it in her palm.

"You said that I can use this shell to make a request to you, and no matter what it is, you will agree to it and come with me, okay?" Yi Mu's eyes were full of pleading.

Hua Chaozhao lowered her eyes and glanced at the shell in her palm with a strange look, then she flipped her hand ruthlessly and the shell fell to the ground with a dull sound.

Fortunately, there was grass underneath and the shell did not break.

But someone's heart seemed to be missing a piece.

"I never said that, and I don't know this thing."

"If you want to leave, hurry up. They are catching up soon." Hua Chaochao looked past the two people and looked behind.

Hua Xi heard this, turned around and saw that indeed a group of people were approaching this side quickly.

Her face darkened: "Stop dawdling, go!"

As he said that, he grabbed Yi Mu's clothes and prepared to climb over the high wall.

Although she was not clear about the relationship between Yi Mu and Ye Xiao, she could feel from Ye Xiao's coldness towards Yi Mu that she would not go with them.

After Yi Mu picked up the shell, he was dragged away by Hua Xi, but his eyes were always fixed on Hua Chaochao. His eyes were filled with complex emotions - anxiety, worry, sadness and an affection that was hard to let go.

Hua Chaochao curled her lips until the two figures completely disappeared from her sight.

It seems I have to find something for him to do, otherwise he will always bother me.

At this time, the guards also rushed over.

"Miss Ye." The guards greeted Hua Chaochao in unison when they saw her.

Hua Chaochao smiled and responded: "Hello."

"Ms. Ye, this is a forbidden area. Please leave without the permission of the clan leader." One of the guards said in a businesslike manner.

Hua Chaochao: "Okay."

Then he turned and left.

The guards continued to chase Yi Mu and Hua Xi who had already escaped from the Li family.

Hua Chaochao walked towards a man in a gray cloak not far away.

The cloak was large, hiding his face.

"How was this scene?" Hua Chaochao asked.

She had arrived long before the lab exploded and had been watching from the sidelines.

Qing Yuan's voice came from under the cloak, "Very good."

It is not an easy task to make Li Qingchi lose face.

After a few seconds of silence, Qing Yuan suddenly turned to Hua Chaochao and said, "I have a question."

Hua Chaochao raised an eyebrow: "About me?"

Qing Yuan: “Yes.”

Hua Chaochao said generously: "Ask."

"The appearance of the Beast King yesterday was your doing, right?"

Qing Yuan was quite curious about this. How could the Beast King appear during the family trial by coincidence?

After all, beasts at the king level have been extinct for hundreds of years. It is impossible for there to be one left, but they don't know anything about it.

But no matter what, the Beast King did appear, and its existence is always a hidden danger for the people of Xuanzhou.

However, when they went into Giant Beast Ridge to look for it later, the Beast King seemed to have disappeared out of thin air, with no trace at all.

"It's me." Hua Chaochao admitted frankly.

Just by drawing a picture, the little cutie instantly becomes a big cutie.

Qing Yuan: "How did you do that?"

He could not sense any aura unique to martial artists from Hua Chaochao, but his intuition told him that she was stronger than anyone, including himself.

Hua Chaochao did not answer directly, but said: "If your brother were here, he would not have such doubts."

When Qing Yuan mentioned Qing Ming, his tone unconsciously became a little heavy: "He should be fine on the island."

Hua Chaochao touched his chin and said thoughtfully: "That's not necessarily true."

The old Taoist priest may not be on Lotus Island. He may have gone to some remote place to set up a stall to tell fortunes.

But Qing Yuan didn't know, he was a little anxious: "What does it mean? Did something happen to him?"

Hua Chaochao laughed, with a hint of sarcasm, "If you miss him, go see him. It's not that easy to get words from me."

Qing Yuan said sadly: "I don't have the face to see him."

"If you don't see him, how do you know if he still blames you?"

"No need, he won't forgive me."

He made a huge mistake.

Hua Chaochao didn't say anything. She had no interest in helping the two brothers reconcile.
