Chapter 856 - 856 294 Deal 2-in-1_2

Chapter 856: Chapter 294: Deal! [2-in-1]_2 Chapter 856: Chapter 294: Deal! [2-in-1]_2 Feng Yin frowned, muttering to himself, with a baffled expression plastered all over his face.

“Hmm, this matter is truly bizarre!”

“Hmm, this matter is truly bizarre!”

The Illusory Silkworm also fell into thought, finding that what Feng Yin said seemed quite reasonable. With Feng Yin’s little strength, just any High Grade Heavenly Level expert could deal with him easily. Unless someone knew he had super experts protecting him, they wouldn’t have sent such a formidable lineup.

And he himself happened to know that both Cat Emperor and Elder Peng were super experts. He was not extremely familiar with them, but he at least knew they were impressive!

Didn’t he just run into them?

Admittedly, as Feng Yin had said, he genuinely had reason to suspect himself, even to be convinced that it was his doing!

Well, then it was really no wonder that Feng Yin didn’t trust him, there was indeed a reason for everything!

After musing for a long time, the Illusory Silkworm said, “But at that time… the transaction involved many valuables. It’s understandable that it caught the eyes of those with ulterior motives.”

“You’re feigning ignorance when you know the truth. What I had was so little! How could it possibly attract the covetousness of so many strong experts? Tell me honestly, if I didn’t possess the aura of the Great Dao, would you even glance at me?”

Feng Yin rolled his eyes, “Without a good reason, that would be utterly illogical.”

“You’re too modest. Where were you lacking good stuff?”

The Illusory Silkworm began to bring up evidence, “Take that maple leaf, for instance. To ordinary people, it’s already top-notch, even the strong ones on Cloud Top would be tempted, they would covet it!”

“And those wood planks of yours…”

“And those Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures!”

“And those Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures that you’ve cultivated yourself…”

The Illusory Silkworm kept providing evidence suggesting ‘it was all your own doing’, clearly straining his mind to clear himself of suspicion.

But as he talked, even the Illusory Silkworm himself felt these reasons weren’t enough to justify the pursuit.

Because the key point, the cultivation of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, was unknown to anyone besides themselves and the Illusory Silkworm!

However, as he pondered this, the Illusory Silkworm felt his suspicion was only growing stronger!

But Feng Yin knew that it wasn’t Illusory Silkworm’s doing. Yet, the more he analyzed it, the more peculiar it all seemed.

For a moment, a man and a silkworm were both frozen in place.

Feng Yin suddenly had a feeling stirring inside: Was it possible that someone recognized his identity as a divine doctor?

But if that were the case, shouldn’t they have come to ask politely?

How could they so recklessly and violently pursue and rob him in plain sight?

With an identity of such stature, they should surely have the funds to pay for a doctor’s visit, right?

Not to mention anything else, just the “ransom” offered by that leading Jinmian at the end was more than enough to treat one or two strong ones from Cloud Top.

Yet, as they continued the process of ‘both starting to look for evidence’, the atmosphere between them grew increasingly conciliatory.

Of course, this was under Feng Yin’s deliberate control. After all, he knew for certain that the mastermind behind this affair couldn’t be the Illusory Silkworm; he was just using this as an excuse to get a handle on him.

Thus, his tone became increasingly relaxed, increasingly kind, and carried more and more of a ‘friendly’ exchange atmosphere.

The Illusory Silkworm’s senses naturally became more and more comfortable.

My suspicion was obviously huge, yet he can still be so kindly towards me, not easy at all!

Feng Yin laughed inwardly: This stubborn fellow, after such manipulation, is finally about to be subdued by me. My charm is truly powerful!

The Illusory Silkworm was also laughing inwardly: This stubborn fellow, at this rate, will sooner or later be subdued by me. My charm is truly strong!

After a long while, finally…

Feng Yin scratched his head somewhat helplessly, “Ah, I really can’t figure out who else would want to do me in besides you… This is really… The most puzzling event I’ve ever encountered…”

The Illusory Silkworm thought to himself: With your crazy antics, anyone who sees you would want to butcher you alive, me included, no need to specifically exclude me!

But mentally, he appeared quite cordial: Sometimes some people are unreasonable. Like robbing others, it’s not necessarily because they’ve been wronged by them…

Feng Yin immediately agreed strongly, nodding vigorously, “These people really deserve to die!”

“Right, right, right, these people really deserve to die!”

The Illusory Silkworm hurried to agree emphatically.

Feng Yin frowned, with an apologetic tone, somewhat sheepishly, “Well… looking at it this way, it indeed doesn’t seem like your doing… It seems I’ve wronged you. But in that situation, apart from you, I really can’t think of anyone else who has the stance and the means to do this…”

Upon hearing this, the Illusory Silkworm felt as if a massive boulder in his heart had suddenly fallen to the ground.

He wanted to cry out with joy, “Exactly, I was almost wronged to death by you… This thing really is…”

Feng Yin sheepishly replied, “You see, you should have said something earlier. You could have spoken up. If you had said something sooner, would we have gone through all this? Couldn’t we have resolved our differences a long time ago?”

The Illusory Silkworm mentally sighed, “Ah, human nature…”

In his heart, he was furiously cursing: Didn’t I speak up earlier? I’ve said it a hundred thousand times, but did you, you stubborn mule, ever believe me for a second?

Feng Yin continued, “Speaking of which, I did indeed have matters to ask for your help with this time around. It’s just that I never imagined, this back and forth would lead to such a state of affairs. It’s really fate messing with people.”
