Chapter 862
Envoy Envoy Yu Xi!
Those three players were Zhen Yi, who thought she had succeeded; Cheng Shi, who had an awkward expression; and Zhang Jizu, who was unconcerned.
Think about it: under what circumstances would three peak-level players of this caliber stand with their heads bowed before a strange NPC?
Or rather, there was no need to think; this scene already made the masked man's identity self-evident.
Envoy Envoy Yu Xi?
Envoy Envoy Yu Xi!
He is Lord Envoy Envoy Yu Xi!
Long Jing was suddenly stunned, his sharp eyes beginning to constantly size up the man. His scrutinizing gaze dared not be too presumptuous for fear of blaspheming the other party, but at the same time, he was afraid of not seeing clearly and being deceived again, so he could only glance and then shift his gaze to size up others, then glance again, shift, glance again, and then...
He didn't dare to glance anymore, because the masked man had already turned his head to look at him.
The curve of the mouth on the pure white mask was pulled to a highest point that could be called terrifying, and then the man hummed and laughed in an eerie, sharp voice:
"Long Jing, what are you looking at?"
As soon as this voice came out, everyone present was startled, even the two who were playing along with Cheng Shi were shaken.
Because this voice was exactly the same as the voice of the ghost in the mist of the Land of Piety earlier!
So, that ghost was actually Lord Envoy Envoy Yu Xi!?
Long Jing's eyes widened sharply.
It matched; everything matched!
Why did finding the Ear of Secrets require sacrificing one's own secrets? That wasn't sacrificing secrets at all; that was clearly Lord Envoy Envoy Yu Xi playing the fool with everyone!
He was playing with the players. In that case, He must have already found His ear, so this trial really proved his guess right—it looked like the Lord's tempering of everyone!
Thinking of this, Long Jing was even angrier. The Lord was actually right here, and he had actually failed under the Lord's gaze!
Did that mean his "score" in Lord Envoy Envoy Yu Xi's eyes was going to drop?
Were these three "ugly-looking" annoying ghosts standing on the stage going to receive the Lord's reward?
No!!!
It cannot be like this!
Long Jing was anxious. At this moment, he only had one thought in his heart: even if he had no reward, he must make the credit for "that one ear" clear, otherwise, the biggest clown in the land of Sandres would no longer be Klaus, but himself!
So he immediately bowed and saluted in the aisle between the audience seats, saying with a pious face:
"To have the honor of seeing the Lord again and witnessing the Lord's glory is simply the greatest reward for my piety today.
Praise the Patron, praise Lord Envoy Envoy Yu Xi.
Bathing in Your radiance, I felt the distortion of the universe; burying my head and moving forward under Your guidance made me approach the falsehood of essence even more.
Your follower, Long Jing, pays his respects to You, from the past of Sandres to the present of the Joyful Theater."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
Just as Long Jing finished speaking, the entire theater fell silent.
Li Jingming had just been wondering if this suddenly appearing Envoy Envoy Yu Xi was a scam created by the three who had disappeared earlier, but seeing Long Jing so certain, he himself became a bit unsure.
But Long Jing's words were so... absurd, to the point that he wanted to follow up with a greeting but couldn't, and wanted to turn his head to hold back laughter but it would appear disrespectful, so he could only smile and nod, controlling his expression as much as possible, nodding and greeting the existence on stage with dignity.
The two before Envoy Envoy Yu Xi had it even worse.
Correct, there were definitely only two on stage: Zhen Yi was played by Zhen Xin, and Cheng Shi was an illusion conjured out of thin air; only Old Zhang was playing himself. After hearing Long Jing's flattery, one was greatly shocked, and the other narrowed his eyes tightly.
For a moment, Zhang Jizu even felt that Long Jing off-stage was Cheng Shi, and the Envoy Envoy Yu Xi on stage was the real Envoy Envoy Yu Xi, because He was actually emitting a faint scent of 【Deception】 divinity.
This was not a feeling that could be created just by holding divinity in one's hand; in the past, Zhang Jizu had only slightly perceived such situations in Them.
So, how did Cheng Shi play Envoy Envoy Yu Xi so realistically?
Does He... really exist?
In an instant, Old Zhang fell into deep thought.
Cheng Shi, who was playing Envoy Envoy Yu Xi, was also having a hard time. He had thought Long Jing was shameless enough when they first met, but he didn't expect that after not seeing him for a while, the other party's licking skills had actually improved.
Zhen Xin was also seeing for the first time what other 【Deception】 believers were like when "having an audience." She turned her head slightly, glanced at Long Jing with her peripheral vision, then looked at the tall "Envoy Envoy Yu Xi" in front of her, pursed her lips, and asked silently:
"Is this what you're like when you have an audience?"
?
How is that possible?
I am a famously tough nut; how could I possibly engage in such shameless behavior when having an audience with a god?
Cheng Shi—oh no, Lord Envoy Envoy Yu Xi—snorted disdainfully, which counted as both a response to Zhen Xin and a warning to Long Jing. He felt the other party's flattery was a bit too much and needed to be toned down.
But Long Jing didn't think so.
He felt it wasn't enough; at least his main point hadn't been finished yet!
This acrobat didn't care at all about the strange atmosphere around him and soon skillfully blended his credit for that one ear into his praise, admitting that although his performance in the trial was slightly inferior, his piety was second to none.
Cheng Shi's face was almost black, and even Mouth Brother couldn't listen anymore, so the moment Long Jing's voice fell, he spoke with a smile that wasn't a smile:
"Does the Lord know that I was played by that unlucky thing? If He knows, wouldn't He take a fancy to that unlucky thing because of it? After all, even His target of investigation, Cheng Shi, was played, wouldn't this trial have achieved the one surnamed Zhen!?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole place fell silent.
Long Jing's smile froze on his face instantly.
Although the other party's "little secret" also mentioned himself, Cheng Shi almost laughed out loud.
Good, good, good. I see that in this world, there are many clowns!
Although Cheng Shi didn't want the big cat to suffer this kind of "belittling," this time he really couldn't refute it, not at all.
"It seems it really is like this." Zhen Xin chuckled twice, "Sorry, I will find an opportunity to apologize to Honglin, but what I want to say is that to a certain extent, I can indeed help you.
I am becoming more and more curious about the secrets on you now, and in order to let you share these secrets with peace of mind.
Come on, let's exchange.
I know what you need."
Saying this, Zhen Xin took out a card, a poker card with gold edges, and on the face of this poker card, a pair of hands was tightly clutching two hearts.
"The S-level talent of 【Silence】, Heart-to-Heart.
Hold this card tightly, no need to make a sound, no need to ask, and you will be able to see the inner secrets I share with you. There are no loopholes, and it cannot be faked.
How about it, is this sincerity enough?"
"..."
Cheng Shi was stunned. Brother Mouth and Brother Ear didn't refute, which meant that Zhen Xin's words were likely true. He had indeed heard of this 【Silence】 talent, but this talent was always used to "demand," and very few people would use it in reverse like this.
