Physical mage, challenge me to a solo duel!
Chapter 56 Chess Pieces
Once Bai Yu confirmed that Wu Manqi had indeed come with the intention of protecting Wang Yi's safety, she didn't expose her.
After explaining, Wu Manqi pointed to Emmanuel Morris, who was hanging in mid-air: "Teacher Bai, then he..."
"I'm taking him away." Bai Yu's eyes held a hint of warning, and she said succinctly, "Send him to law enforcement and find out what happened."
"That's the way to do it," Wu Manqi agreed wholeheartedly, then said to Emman Morris, "Once you're in there, confess everything you know. Don't try to hide anything. At most, you'll be locked up for three or four years for an attempted attack, and then you can be deported..."
Before Wu Manqi could finish speaking, Ayman Morris suddenly vanished into thin air, leaving only four unsupported icy chains that fell to the ground with smooth, clean breaks, making a crisp clanging sound.
Wu Manqi paused for a moment, then turned her gaze to Wang Yi, smiling sweetly: "Junior, please do me the honor of having a meal with me. I really want to resolve the conflict between you and Manager Wu."
Wu Manqi didn't have to do this, since she had saved Wang Yi's life this time.
Unfortunately, after Bai Yu appeared, Wu Manqi's life-saving grace was greatly diminished.
Wu Manqi is now very grateful that she got Uncle Li to intervene in time and save Wang Yi.
Otherwise, it wouldn't just be a question of whether the plan can succeed.
It might even backfire and cause trouble for yourself.
"Thank you for your kindness, senior, but it's really not necessary." Wang Yi was now basically certain that Wu Manqi really just wanted to be a peacemaker, but he still chose to refuse.
Wang Yi believed that Wu Manqi had indeed come to save him, and felt that the Wu family would not retaliate against him, but he did not believe that the Wu family had only just received the news.
They were simply thinking of letting things develop as they were, and then turning the tables on them.
All you need to do is save him at the crucial moment. This will not only do him a favor but also disrupt his plans. You might even be able to use him to tell Bai Yu, which will mobilize the Bai family's resources to investigate thoroughly and make them pay the price.
This can truly be described as killing three birds with one stone.
So although it seems that Wu Manqi saved Wang Yi, the Wu family also wanted to use Wang Yi to retaliate, and Wang Yi would not really be grateful to her.
"this time······"
Seeing that Wu Manqi was about to say something, Wang Yi interrupted her directly, saying, "How about this, senior, my phone is broken too. Let Manager Wu compensate me for a new phone. That way, we'll be even, and we can all get along peacefully from now on."
Wang Yi held up his phone and waved it. The crack on the screen was particularly glaring under the illumination: "Anyway, you definitely know where I am, so just deliver it to my door."
This practically reveals that the Wu family had also known about the attack plan long ago and had sent people to monitor his every move.
Wu Manqi was silent for a moment, then nodded: "Okay."
Wu Manqi hadn't expected Wang Yi to be so difficult to fool.
So Wu Manqi had no choice but to say, "Teacher Bai, junior, now that the matter is resolved, I'll head back first."
After saying goodbye, Wu Manqi walked away, with Uncle Li following closely behind.
The two brushed past Wang Yi and Bai Yu, their figures slowly disappearing into the range of the illumination spell, eventually blending completely into the darkness of the alley.
After Wu Manqi and the other person left, Wang Yi turned to Bai Yu with a grin and said, "Teacher, it's so late and you still went to the trouble of making this trip. Thank you so much. How about I treat you..."
Considering his own wallet, Wang Yi decisively changed his mind: "I'll have Xiao Hao treat you to a meal."
Bai Yu rolled her eyes at Wang Yi: "Come on, it wasn't me who saved you. If you want to invite someone, go invite Wu Manqi instead."
"That's different!" Wang Yi waved his hand. "Wu Manqi saved me for another reason, unlike you who came all this way purely for my safety."
"It's good that you understand." Bai Yu nodded with slight satisfaction. "Where do you live? I'll take you there."
Although Wang Yi felt that no one was likely to attack again, he did not refuse Bai Yu's offer: "It's just around the corner."
The two walked out of the alley and saw the Shangwu Training Hall building a few minutes later.
"You live here?" Bai Yu asked, somewhat surprised.
"It's quite spacious, making training convenient," Wang Yi nodded.
However, now that he no longer had to worry about retaliation, Wang Yi felt there was no need to stay there any longer and could go home in peace.
Although living here is quite comfortable, it's really expensive, and Qi Xiaohao's money doesn't come easily.
"Don't worry, I will follow up on this matter until I get to the bottom of it." Bai Yu reassured Wang Yi, "Those who break the rules will definitely receive the punishment they deserve."
Wang Yi sincerely thanked Bai Yu before entering the Shangwu Training Hall.
Bai Yu is indeed someone who cannot tolerate injustice. If someone dares to hire a sorcerer to attack her students in the city, she will naturally not let it go.
With Bai Jingting backing her up, Bai Yu will definitely urge law enforcement to investigate thoroughly and make the other party pay the corresponding price.
This is a very suitable knife; no wonder someone would want Wang Yi to be the one to draw the knife.
Unfortunately, he lacked the skill; wielding a knife would only make him more likely to injure himself.
Wang Yi sighed inwardly, thinking that this time, it seemed that Wu Jie's wishes would be fulfilled.
Wang Yi had also considered other possibilities, such as the whole thing being orchestrated by Wu Jie, who directed and acted in order to eliminate obstacles on his path to promotion in advance.
But after a moment's thought, I ruled out that answer.
Wu Jie is currently in the advantageous position. As long as he doesn't make any mistakes and remains unchanged, that position will be his next year. There's absolutely no need to create any unnecessary complications.
If you direct and act in something yourself, you might end up getting burned if you don't play it right, so smart people definitely wouldn't do that.
The more you do, the more mistakes you make; the less you do, the less mistakes you make.
In the end, it was others who couldn't hold back and tried to make a fuss about him, but Wu Jie caught them off guard and turned the tables on them.
Throughout the entire process, although the duel between Wang Yi and Wu Guan was the trigger, Wang Yi was at most just a pawn going with the flow, and had no choice in how the events would unfold.
The thoughts of the pieces are not important; what matters is whose strategic talent is being used.
Wu Manqi came to save him, which was also Wu Jie's way of keeping the situation under complete control and avoiding any major turmoil, so that he wouldn't accidentally drown himself.
At the same time, capturing Ayman Morris on the spot can also quickly draw out the person who issued the mission, reducing their reaction time.
It is believed that Wu Jie has already prepared substantial evidence to prove who is directing his subordinates.
If Wang Yi hadn't called Bai Yu to save the day, he would not only have been used as a pawn for nothing, but would also have owed the Wu family a favor.
Having figured all this out, Wang Yi sighed inwardly at how dirty these guys' hearts were.
Decisive, experienced, thorough, and steady.
This was Wu Jie's first impression on Wang Yi.
To be honest, Wang Yi didn't want to have any conflict with such a person.
Although he was unhappy about being used as a pawn, Wang Yi saw things very clearly: with his current strength, he was not yet able to protect his own free will.
As for the other party who deliberately set him up, Wang Yi believes that under the double attack of Bai Yu and Wu Jie, there is basically no chance of him escaping.
Back in the third training room, a package arrived at the door in less than ten minutes.
The latest high-end mobile phones on the market are lying quietly in their boxes.
Wang Yi chuckled and, after some haggling, finally sold it to the deliveryman at a 30% discount.
Wang Yi wasn't really after the phone; he simply wanted to show Wu Manqi that he was aware of her surveillance and manipulation.
Wu Jie was quite upright; after he made it clear, the other party readily admitted it.
Really interesting.
