After this childlike deception was finished, Silver Child went off to the side to busy herself eating. Yun Ji moved closer and whispered, "Relying on her to intercept Wu Chang... why did that feel so unreliable to me? What if, when the time came, she didn't deal with Wu Chang but instead helped him clean us up too?"
Yuan Cong and the others did not know the situation. Hearing that Sacred Rakshasa was present reassured them greatly, but Yun Ji had seen Silver Child's indiscriminate slaughter firsthand. Wu Chang alone was already hard enough to handle. Add Sacred Rakshasa to the mix, and would that not be courting death?
She could tell that Niu Youdao intended to use Sacred Rakshasa to fool Yuan Cong and the others. Put nicely, it was to bolster their courage.
Niu Youdao replied in a low voice, "As long as the plan goes smoothly, the chances of Silver Child taking action are slim. The real purpose of bringing her here is to show Wu Chang. It is enough for him to know that Sacred Rakshasa has come. Think about it: would he be more confident ambushing an unsuspecting Silver Child, or facing Sacred Rakshasa head-on?"
Yun Ji pondered this and understood. The point of bringing Silver Child was not to have her fight, but to make Wu Chang wary. Only by forcing Wu Chang to keep his promise could they escape smoothly.
In other words, this man did not trust Wu Chang's promise either.
Niu Youdao continued, "Only when we have something to rely on will Wu Chang feel more at ease about us."
Yun Ji nodded.
Niu Youdao said, "Make sure the food prepared for Silver Child here is inspected carefully."
Yun Ji gave a grunt. "Don't worry. It will be checked thoroughly."
