Physical mage, challenge me to a solo duel!

Chapter 405 Preparation of Bait

The feud between Wang Yi and Xiao Ziru caused quite a stir back then, to the point that many people who knew Wang Yi and Xiao Ziru were aware of it.

Wang Yi never expected that this matter would be involved with Xiao Ziru.

"Could it be that Xiao Ziru, because of our shared wish, betrayed the country and leaked the location of the participating students?" Wang Yi speculated, then immediately dismissed the idea: "The Underworld organization doesn't need him to leak the location of the participating students, so it's impossible for them to go to the trouble of looking for him."

After all, it's difficult for a team of 300 to completely hide their tracks.

"It can't be that Xiao Ziru harbored resentment and actively sought cooperation with the underworld, going through all this trouble, seemingly to attack the participating students, but actually to eliminate me?"

At this point, Wang Yi laughed at himself. He hadn't even gone to cause trouble for Xiao Ziru yet, and the other side had already resorted to underhanded tactics.

Of course, reason told Wang Yi that this was even more impossible.

Putting aside the question of whether the hatred between Xiao Ziru and Wang Yi has reached such a point, even if Xiao Ziru believes that one of them must die, Wang Yi doesn't think Xiao Ziru would choose such a pointless and unnecessary method.

Rather than doing that, Xiao Ziru would have been better off personally ambushing and killing Wang Yi; that would have been much more efficient.

If Xiao Ziru were to personally kill Wang Yi, thus establishing the fact that Wang Yi is dead, the value of the dead Wang Yi would be greatly reduced. Xiao Ziru might still have a slight chance, because of his value as an extraordinary mage, to be spared and sent to the front lines to fight the monsters.

However, if Xiao Ziru cooperates with the underworld organization, then no one can protect him.

Of course, whether it's the former or the latter, unless Xiao Ziru is suffering from hysteria, no mentally sound person would do such a thing.

"According to Xiao Ziru, it was King Biancheng of the Underworld who contacted him, wanting to cooperate," Xu Jun continued to explain to Wang Yi.

"Why would the people of the Underworld cooperate with Xiao Ziru? Are they out of their minds? Why alert them when they can do it themselves?" Wang Yi frowned, because this made no sense at all, and continued:

"This isn't even a matter of alerting the enemy; it's practically surrendering to the authorities. Do the people in the underworld really think Xiao Ziru would betray the country because of his conflict with me? Even if that's a possibility, how dare they gamble? If they lose, they'll be wiped out. This evil organization is acting like they're playing house. Unless they're really tired of living."

Xu Jun explained, "That's right, he really has had enough of living, because this King Biancheng who took the initiative to show himself wanted to take this opportunity to destroy the underworld in order to gain his freedom."

"It really is internal strife?" Wang Yi looked as if he'd seen a ghost, although logically there was nothing wrong with the statement: "It's unbelievable... Did Xiao Ziru himself say all this?"

Damn it, no matter how much we planned, who would have thought that someone in the underworld organization would actually be a werewolf and even self-destruct!

Xu Jun nodded: "That's right. I've looked at the detailed files. It was Xiao Ziru who took the initiative to report the matter in detail at the first opportunity, and also submitted evidence of the second conversation that he secretly recorded. It was Biancheng Wang who used some kind of magic similar to a clone to steal the identity of a student from Shanghai University, and then approached him to initiate this cooperation."

"A clone?" Wang Yi was naturally very sensitive to this word, because it reminded him of the coroner Wang who had attacked him before.

Could it be that Wu Guan Wang is an alter ego of Bian Cheng Wang?

Could it be that because Wu Guanwang failed to assassinate him last time, he felt that with the emergence of such an unparalleled genius as himself in China, the future of the Underworld Organization was destined to be bleak, and therefore wanted to quit in order to avoid being purged in the future?

However, evil organizations are definitely different from public places; they can't just come and go as they please. Therefore, the helpless King Biancheng had no choice but to resort to this desperate measure: to demolish the entire toilet.

Thinking about it that way, it makes perfect sense... What a load of rubbish!

No matter how narcissistic Wang Yi was, she couldn't possibly believe that she could shatter King Biancheng's mind and force him to rebel with a mere tremor of her body.

There must be other unknown reasons behind this. Perhaps King Biancheng had always harbored rebellious intentions, and this was just a coincidence.

However, Wang Yi was not at all surprised that Xiao Ziru had taken the initiative to report this matter.

Because no one with a sound mind would be foolish enough to secretly cooperate with the underworld organization, especially since Xiao Ziru holds a high position in China.

You can say that Xiao Ziru is arrogant, stubborn, power-hungry, selfish, narrow-minded, and shameless—these personality flaws are all acceptable—but you absolutely cannot say that Xiao Ziru is an idiot.

Having cultivated to the level of a transcendent mage and even risen to the position of Minister of Law Enforcement in Shanghai, Xiao Ziru was certainly no fool.

By proactively reporting and handing over the decision-making power, he will undoubtedly receive credit regardless of the outcome.

Even if Xiao Ziru really wanted to get rid of Wang Yi, the best option would be to report the matter.

If the above option is to use entrapment, then Xiao Ziru can remain uninvolved and obtain the opportunity for Wang Yi to die in the aftermath of a battle between extraordinary mages.

Even though the authorities disagreed with the entrapment operation, Xiao Ziru has passed the test.

Damn it, it's all benefits and no drawbacks.

If the underworld organization ultimately did not choose to attack the participating students, Wang Yi even suspected that the whole thing was a show orchestrated by Xiao Ziru to demonstrate his loyalty to his superiors.

After all, who can find the King of Biancheng from the Underworld organization to verify the authenticity?

After analyzing for a while, Wang Yi couldn't help but pinch his nose, feeling a bit of a headache, and then asked, "Uncle Xu, do you think Xiao Ziru's information is true or false?"

"It's better to be safe than sorry. We're playing our cards right now. If the underworld attacks, we can take the opportunity to eliminate these Yama Kings. Even if the underworld doesn't attack, it'll just be a false alarm." Xu Jun understood the situation clearly.

"Okay, I understand, Uncle Xu. I'll be prepared."

Now that the entrapment enforcement has been finalized, Wang Yi can only focus on preparing the bait.

However, necessary preparations are also essential.

That night, Wang Yi secretly summoned Qi Xiaohao to the underground training room.

Afterwards, several exclamations from Qi Xiaohao could be faintly heard from the well-soundproofed training room.

"Brother Yi, are you... even human?"
