Are you stupid? I am the villain behind the scenes

"What do you want to tell me?" Yi Mu asked knowingly.

How could he not know that Qing Yuan kept him to ask about Lotus Island.

Qing Yuan stared at Yi Mu with deep eyes and said slowly: "Is he... okay?"

Yi Mu raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "Who are you asking?"

"The one who looks like me." Qing Yuan's voice trembled slightly, as if he was trying hard to suppress the emotions surging deep in his heart.

"He's fine." Yi Mu responded.

According to Xiao Hei, the old island owner couldn't sit still and went out of the island to travel not long ago.

Although the trembling in Qing Yuan's words was very subtle, Yi Mu still caught it keenly. How to put it, there was longing and regret. In short, it was very complicated.

"May I ask, what is your relationship with him?"

Qing Yuan slowly turned his gaze to the huge French window behind Yi Mu. Outside the window, the sun was shining, the sky was clear and cloudless, it was a rare good day.

However, Qing Yuan's mood at the moment was the opposite. He should have been honest, but he chose to escape.

"No, I have nothing to do with him."

How could he have the nerve to admit his relationship with that person after doing such a wrong thing?

Yi Mu frowned, obviously not believing Qing Yuan's words.

Qing Yuan didn't care whether Yi Mu believed it or not. He turned his gaze back to his face and asked, "If you see him in the future, please don't mention me."

Yi Mu was even more confused, wondering what had happened between him and his master that made him avoid talking about their relationship.

Meanwhile, downstairs.

Hua Xi folded her arms across her chest, leaned against the car body, looked at the ground with her eyelids drooped, and waited quietly for Yi Mu to come out.

Ji Xianchen's car was parked nearby, but he did not get in and leave. Instead, he looked at Hua Xi, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

"If you have something to say, just say it." Hua Xi raised her eyes and glanced at Ji Xianchen.

Seeing that Hua Xi was willing to pay attention to him, Ji Xianchen was delighted, but at the same time, he said with great sorrow: "We don't have much time left, Chao Chao... have you thought of a solution?"

They had no idea when Li Qingchi's experiment would be completed, nor did they know when Fu Lan would take action. They could only rescue Hua Chaochao as quickly as possible and stop all this from happening.

Hua Xi raised her eyes upon hearing this, and finally set her gaze on Ji Xianchen, "It seems like you have already thought of a solution."

Ji Xianchen: "There is a way, but it's a bit risky."

Hua Xi: "Kill Li Qingchi?"

"That's right. Only by killing him can we end this experiment." Ji Xianchen said, "You think so too, right?"

Hua Xi did not comment.

She did think that killing Li Qingchi was the most direct and effective way to stop this crazy experiment, even though he was her nominal grandfather.

If he didn't die, more innocent people would have died. Besides, he had wanted to kill her before. There was no family affection between them, so Hua Xi didn't feel the slightest guilt for killing Li Qingchi.

"But are you sure you can kill him? Don't forget that there are people from other worlds." Hua Xi reminded.

It is not difficult to simply kill Li Qingchi, but the difficult part is that he has people from other worlds helping him.

They were not sure whether the aliens would suddenly appear to protect Li Qingchi when they tried to kill him. If that happened, they would have no chance of winning.

"Then let's take a gamble. Li Qingchi's life was in danger several times before, but the alien didn't show up. Maybe she has already left."

Ji Xianchen had considered this, but the current situation was urgent and there was not much time for them to make a more comprehensive plan. They could only take a risk and try their luck.

Hua Xi didn't say anything, but her expression conveyed her approval.

Seeing this, Ji Xianchen continued, "There is no time to lose, let's take action tonight?"

"Okay." Hua Xi agreed.

At this time, Yi Mu walked out of the building. He had an expressionless face. He walked straight to the passenger seat, opened the door, and got in without even looking at Ji Xianchen and Hua Xi.

Obviously not welcome.

The three of them knew exactly who it was because of, especially Ji Xianchen.

He could understand Yi Mu's attitude towards him very well. After all, it was his father who caused the death of Yi Mu's mother, and he felt equally guilty towards him.

Without further conversation, they got in their cars and left.

As for whether Yi Mu will participate in tonight's operation, Hua Xi will go and talk to him.

……

It was late at night and quiet, in the courtyard of Li Qing Pond.

There were a total of eight guards on duty inside and outside the yard. They were scattered everywhere, standing upright at their posts.

Suddenly, one of the guards raised his hand to cover his mouth and yawned. After yawning, he rubbed his eyes. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw his companion lying on the ground.

Before he could react, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in the back of his neck, and then his vision went black, and he lost consciousness.

After dealing with all the guards, Yi Mu, Hua Xi and Ji Xianchen pushed the door and walked into the house.

The three of them walked very lightly, making almost no sound, like three shadows blending into the night.

The room was dark. They walked to Li Qingchi's bedroom. Hua Xi reached out and grasped the door handle. She turned it gently, but it wouldn't turn. It was locked.

Locking the door was really unnecessary. Hua Xi just pushed down hard, and with a crisp "click" sound, the door handle was broken by her and the door opened.

The sound was not loud and did not wake up Li Qingchi who was sleeping soundly inside.

The curtains in the room were tightly closed, not a single ray of moonlight could get in. It was pitch black, and you couldn't see your hand in front of you.

Ji Xianchen walked lightly to the head of Li Qingchi's bed in the dark.

Just as he was about to take action, Li Qingchi, who was originally sleeping soundly, suddenly opened his eyes as if frightened, and sat up with a "swoosh", his chest heaving violently and gasping for breath.

He was scared to death. He dreamed that Ye Xiao opened his mouth wide and wanted to eat him.

This is the second time. He had this nightmare last night and he dreamed about it again tonight.

Li Qingchi's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and the fear from the dream still lingered in his eyes.

He raised his hand and hurriedly wiped the sweat from his forehead. Before he could fully recover, he vaguely saw two figures at the end of the bed. His face suddenly changed and he shouted, "Who?!"

Before he could finish his words, a fierce attack came from the side, bringing up a gust of wind.

There is one more person!

Judging from his aura, he is still a strong warrior at the ninth level of martial arts.

Shocked, Li Qingchi rolled over and dodged, narrowly avoiding the attack. He had a rough guess about who was coming, and asked tentatively, "Bai Sheng?"
