Chapter 625: A Flaw

After the many Sheng Xiao had been silent for a while, Di Hu began to feel restless.

"You, girl, how can you lie so recklessly?" He touched his large head and said, "This sounds so far-fetched to me. Can your game really cause Qi Xia's death?"

"What's wrong with that?" Di Ji looked at the burly men in front of her with some confusion and said meaningfully, "Is it such a rare thing for a Can Yu Zhe to die in a Di Ji game?"

At that moment, Di Shu furrowed his brow. He exchanged a glance with Di Hu and then said, "Ji leader, it's not that we don't believe you... It's just that it's quite unexpected to hear that the man died in your game. About when did this happen?"

"It's been almost a month." Di Ji thought for a moment before replying, "Exactly what happened? Is this Qi Xia guy that important?"

The people in the room who knew Qi Xia naturally sensed something was off.

None of their own games had ever stumped Qi Xia—not even close to killing him, let alone gaining the upper hand with Dao—yet here was Di Ji claiming she had directly killed him?

"Girl, what kind of game is yours?" Di Hu asked.

"I'm Di Ji, so the game is naturally 'Zheng Dou.'" Di Ji replied irritably, "You're Di Hu, and you don't even know that?"

"Of course I know it's 'Zheng Dou'..." Di Hu frowned and asked, "But what's the specific content? How did Qi Xia end up getting killed by you?"

"It's a 'Dan Tiao.'" Di Ji smiled slightly. "My game is probably the simplest in the entire 'Zhong Yan Zhi Di'—anyone who enters the arena fights one-on-one until death."

"Ah...?" Di Hu didn't quite understand. "And this counts as a 'game'...?"

"Why wouldn't it?" Di Ji said. "I remember it clearly. That Qi Xia guy came to participate in the game with a man who had tattoos. In the end, Qi Xia was the one who died."

"A man with tattoos...?" Di Hu suddenly recalled something.

In his own "Xian Lu Xiang Feng" game, a tattooed man had shone brightly, and he was likely someone close to Qi Xia.

But had this man actually killed Qi Xia himself...?

Had Qi Xia not had a chance to win at the time?

Di Hu shook his head. He knew that scenario was unlikely—if Qi Xia had died, it was probably by his own choice; otherwise, he should have had a hundred ways to escape death.

"So... is that your entire impression of the guy named Qi Xia?" Di Hu asked again.

"Yeah, why would I have any other impression?" Di Ji looked at Di Hu suspiciously. "What are you getting at?"

At that point, no one knew how to respond. Di Shu glanced around quickly and then spoke up: "I think we're asking the wrong questions... Ji leader, do you know Bai Yang?"

"Bai...?" Di Ji slowly furrowed her brow, her expression becoming a bit uneasy. "Which Bai Yang?"

Hearing that question, everyone exchanged looks, realizing they had found a breakthrough.

On this train, there were only two sheep at the Di Ji level or above—who would ask "which Bai Yang"?

"Ji leader, there's no need to play dumb; we're all in this together now." Di Shu stepped forward and whispered, "What did Bai Yang leader say to you? Were you two familiar before?"

"I..." Di Ji slowly raised her feathered hand to cover her pointed mouth, then let out a mischievous laugh, her eyes curving into a joyful shape.

"What's going on...?" Di Hu was a bit baffled. "Girl, that smile of yours looks dangerous... Don't go spreading rumors about my Sheep bro..."

"Oh, come on... I'm not spreading rumors about him..." Di Ji continued laughing mischievously and said, "Don't you think Bai Yang is pretty handsome?"

"Ah...?" Everyone in the room was stunned.

"I was definitely smitten by his looks... Hehe..." Di Ji finished laughing, cleared her throat, and quickly regained her composure. "But that's not right. No one should know about my crush on Bai Yang. Who told you? Why bring it up all of a sudden?"

"Crush...?!" Di Hu touched his head, realizing things were getting more complicated. "Wait, girl... Who asked about your crush?"

"Then what are you asking about?"

Di Ji blinked her eyes; her long lashes and dark, bird-like pupils made her look somewhat cute.

"Well..."

Di Hu thought for a moment about how to phrase it. Now, they faced a tricky issue—

If this girl had really stumbled into the room by mistake, should they tell her about the rebellion?

"Let me put it this way..." Di Hu said slowly, word by word, "Girl, do you think... Qi Xia and Bai Yang look alike?"

"Ah...? Qi Xia is pretty handsome too, but he's just a Can Yu Zhe... Wait a minute..."

Di Ji paused for a long time before squeezing out,

"Are you, you straight guy, trying to set me up?"

After that remark, all the Sheng Xiao in the room slapped their foreheads. This already full-of-holes team was somehow making even more holes.

It seemed this girl didn't care about the rebellion at all—her eyes were only for handsome guys.

Di Hu pursed his lips, thought for a while, and picked up a handful of sunflower seeds from the table: "Girl, want some sunflower seeds?"

"I don't want any damn sunflower seeds." Di Ji slowly stood up and said to everyone, "I'm here to warn you all—if you keep disturbing the peace, I'll really go to Di Long about it."

Di Hu casually tossed the sunflower seeds to Di Tu on the side, his mind a mess.

He felt like Bai Yang might have been wrong—

This girl joining them wouldn't bring any new plans, and she hadn't even indicated she wanted to join.

So, was that so-called "neighbor" someone else...?

Hei Yang, who had been watching coldly from the side, stroked his chin at that moment.

He sensed something was off; there was a flaw.

Just as Di Ji was about to turn and leave, Hei Yang called out to her: "Wait a second."

"What?" Di Ji turned back, looking at Hei Yang with confusion.

"I just remembered something." Hei Yang walked forward step by step, his gaze sharp. "Qi Xia once won a lot of 'Dao' in my game. He was worried about being robbed, so he brought a tattooed man to my arena to hold the 'Dao' for him. That's when I noticed something interesting."

"Oh, so what? Do I need to feel sorry for you?" Di Ji asked.

"No, I should feel sorry for you." Hei Yang replied. "Next time you lie, you'd better check if there's a 'Sheep' around."

"Oh? I'm lying?" Di Ji laughed and put her hands on her hips. "Dare I ask, Hei Yang leader, where did I lie?"

Hei Yang was silent for three seconds before asking, "If only the 'tattooed man' and Qi Xia went to participate in your game... how would you know his name was Qi Xia?"
