Holding the note left by Gray Bean, Yun Zhi pondered.
"Fairy Gray has been killing people who know too much with such frequency, yet she's never laid a hand on Senior Ao Ling or my junior brother."
"Senior Ao Ling is easy enough to explain. When Fairy Gray tried to kill her in the Everlasting Flame Dynasty, the dragon-patterned bracelet blocked her attacks again and again. Now that the bracelet has plenty of energy and can cross through space, Fairy Gray knows that whether she tries to ambush Senior Ao Ling or trap her, it'll be extremely difficult."
"But why has she never gone after my junior brother?"
"Could it be that she knows if she did, she'd be the one to suffer bad luck?"
Yun Zhi pondered for a while, then dismissed the idea. If Fairy Gray knew how dangerous her junior brother was, she wouldn't have made a move in the Sword Tower.
"Is it because she inherited Senior Fairy's luck, and instinctively avoided the worst option?"
"Back in the Sword Tower, if Fairy Gray had decided to deal with my junior brother first and Yingtian Corpse afterward, she would've been the unlucky one."
"Right. She was once Senior Fairy herself, so it's only natural that she has Senior Fairy's luck."
To test her theory, Yun Zhi opened a hidden pocket world beside the fourth death-row convict and concealed herself inside.
In theory, Gray Bean couldn't sense Yun Zhi. Yet while Yun Zhi hid in the pocket world, Gray Bean didn't make a move. Only after Yun Zhi left the pocket world and went far away did Gray Bean kill the death-row convict.
"So it really is a matter of luck."
"It seems the only way to deal with Fairy Gray is to rely on luck even stronger
