"Why didn't I know about this!"

"Do you even need to ask?"

Dottore swore that at this moment, he really wanted to slap Scaramouche to death.

But Scaramouche was not truly stupid; after thinking slightly, his face became somewhat ugly.

"Have we been abandoned?"

"I think so."

Dottore's face was calm, but the cold light flashing in his eyes made Scaramouche feel a chill in his heart.

"Why?"

Scaramouche took a deep breath, trying to suppress his anger.

"We worked hard to complete the mission for her dream, and in exchange, we were abandoned?"

"Since it's just the two of us, there's no need to cover up."

Dottore picked up a Delusion on the side and examined it, saying lightly:

"You and I both know why we joined the Fatui; we both know that we were never on the same rope."

"Now that such a situation has occurred, it should also be within your expectations. After all, you haven't thought about betraying the Fatui, have you?"

Scaramouche snorted and did not refute.

Unlike the relationship between Tartaglia and the others and the Tsaritsa, Scaramouche and Dottore, as well as Pierro,

they and the Tsaritsa had always been in a relationship of utilization.

To talk about loyalty, that was truly a huge joke.

That guy Scaramouche ran off after taking the Gnosis, obsessed with becoming a god, and even kept shouting about starting an Archon War.

This showed the essence of this guy.

Dottore and Pierro were even more so; to talk about loyalty to the Tsaritsa,

that was truly a joke that would make one's teeth fall out.

"What else do you know?"

"A lot."

Dottore put down the Delusion and threw a book to Scaramouche.

"For example... she almost severed the Fatui; you, me, and Pierro are all abandoned pawns she intends to discard."

"Of course, it might not just be abandoned pawns. In order to join Shushan and completely sever the final filth, we might also be on her kill list."

"Barnabas was never a soft-hearted god. Now that she has joined Shushan, and as far as I know, the Shushan sect's tenet is to subdue demons and eliminate evil, and uphold the righteous path."

"What do you think she will do to show her attitude?"

"I think my head is the best certificate of allegiance for her."

Dottore looked toward the direction of Liyue outside the window with some playfulness.

Ever since he knew about cultivation, he had been investigating it.

But after investigating for a period of time, he gave up.

As a top-tier smart person, he understood what things were already beyond his ability.

That Shushan Sect Master possessed the power to destroy everything and was not an existence he could plan against.

As for the others in Shushan, they were either from Mondstadt or from Liyue...

It was very unfortunate that these people all had blood feuds with him.

Plus the things he had done, it was indeed not something Shushan would allow.

Dottore knew very clearly that whoever joined Shushan, he could not possibly join Shushan.

But this matter of cultivation...

how could he give it up?

This was a shortcut to the truth!

But right now, he might be taken down by the Tsaritsa as a certificate of allegiance in a while.

He had to make some plans early.

"The Fatui are already prepared to sever ties. If nothing goes wrong, next, Rooster and Sandrone will be transferred away. These two people are loyal to her."

"Shushan requires disciples to follow the righteous path and not kill the innocent indiscriminately. Do you think you still have a chance?"

Hearing this, Scaramouche's face sank.

"Signora's hands are not clean either; why is she qualified to join Shushan?"

"Because she is loyal; she is a good dog of our Tsaritsa."

Dottore replied with some sarcasm.

"As for the things she has done..."

"Aren't you the ready-made scapegoat? My dear colleague..."

320. Fatui reorganization, all Harbingers prepare to cultivate

"Signora has always been low-key; at the very least, she won't bring out unclean things in a big way."

"And you, my dear Scaramouche..."

Dottore walked behind Scaramouche, his tone somewhat teasing:

"When you die, all the sins will be borne by you."

"Believe me, Shushan will not investigate to the end. After all, a genius disciple and the lives of some mortals—Shushan still knows who carries more weight."

"They just need a fig leaf, a scapegoat that will never speak and can bear all the sins."

"And you, Mr. Scaramouche, who performed many wonderful missions with Signora, are the best candidate for a scapegoat."

"Congratulations, you are already on her and Signora's kill list."

"Guess, will Signora allow you to walk to Liyue alive and ruin her good fortune of being able to cultivate and live forever?"

Although Scaramouche's brain was stubborn, he was not unable to understand this kind of thing.

Clenching his fists tightly, Scaramouche's eyes were cold.

"If she has the ability, let her come! Cultivation is very powerful, but she has only started cultivating for a few days, and she wants to kill me?"

"Daydreaming!"

Dottore looked at Scaramouche with some mockery.

"Is that so? My dear colleague, I think you don't understand the abilities of cultivators very well."

"Tartaglia, whom you once said you looked down on, has now joined Shushan and practices demonic arts. Although his strength is only at the mid-stage of Qi Refining and Essence Transformation, he can already easily suppress demon gods."

"Even the Tsaritsa, who has not cultivated, is no match for him."

"A few days ago, the demon gods Osial and Beisht attacked Liyue and were forcibly suppressed by a group of Shushan disciples at the mid-stage of Qi Refining and Essence Transformation. I heard that their souls were even split."

"A few days ago, a Shushan disciple at the early stage of Qi Refining and Essence Transformation broke into Inazuma and had a great battle with your mother, the Raiden Shogun."

"At the last moment, the Raiden Shogun swung the Musou no Hitotachi, which was defeated by the Yaksha Xiao who rushed over."

"The other party is an existence at the peak of Qi Refining and Essence Transformation; even if the Raiden Shogun swung the Musou no Hitotachi, she was easily suppressed."

"From beginning to end, the Shogun had no power to fight back."

"Guess, what is the strength of Signora, Arlecchino, and the Tsaritsa?"

Scaramouche's face at this time had already become ugly to a certain extent.

He had a surging desire for destruction and really wanted to kill.

"Very angry, right? The feeling of being betrayed is not good, right?"

Dottore looked at Scaramouche with a smile, not frightened by the other party's aura at all.

"But isn't this exactly what you originally wanted to do? It's just that she gave it to you in advance."

"Oh, by the way, Signora and Arlecchino are both inner sect disciples of Shushan who are highly regarded, at the mid-stage of Qi Refining and Essence Transformation."

"As for her... she is now an inner sect Elder of Shushan, at the mid-stage of Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation."

"If you have confidence, I will naturally applaud and see you off from the rear, hoping you can suppress them."

"However... the people you need to deal with are not just them."

"In Shushan's eyes, except for cultivators, everyone else is a mortal. They have already formed a general trend."

"If you take action against them, not to mention whether you can win, even if you can win, the so-called Shushan Law Enforcement Hall will immediately take action against you."

"Let me think, how many enemies will you face? Law Enforcement Hall disciples from the early to late stages of Qi Refining and Essence Transformation."

"The first disciple of the Law Enforcement Hall who defeated the Raiden Shogun with one move." ===== CHAPTER 537 =====
