Whether It Was or Not, It Had to Be

Everyone was speechless after hearing Shen Hui's explanation, feeling that it made perfect sense.

If Ji Xinfeng and Shen Hui have a grudge, then why did Ji Xinfeng go to find Shen Hui?

Or rather, what can it do?

Shen Hui paused for a moment, giving everyone a brief time to react.

Then he continued, "Could it be... that in such a turbulent time, Senior Ji Xinfeng harbors ill intentions towards me...?"

"This... I really can't imagine it. Could it be that he's trying to frame the Giant God Cult?"

Shen Hui's gaze fell upon Qin Ying, the captain of the Sharp Sword Organization.

"At that time, Senior Ji Xinfeng didn't have much contact with me. After I encountered the Giant God Cult, he came from another direction and met the Giant God Cult members, and then a fight broke out."

"Didn't he anticipate encountering the Giant God Cult, thus ruining his plans against him? Was he forced to fight the Giant God Cult?"

"Well... based on what this senior said, this is the only speculation I can make."

"Furthermore, since Senior Ji Xinfeng was with you before the turmoil, surely you seniors should know why Ji Xinfeng left?"

Shen Hui's words left Qin Ying speechless.

And in the end, the problem was passed on to them.

Shen Hui was also gambling on this last question, betting that they had no idea where Ji Xinfeng had gone.

Otherwise, if they knew, they would have pointed out that they were coming to see him.

Shen Hui's gamble paid off; the other party indeed didn't know.

If they don't accept what Shen Hui said, then all the problems point to Ji Xinfeng himself being the problem.

They wanted to take advantage of Shen Hui during this special time.

They admit it, even though they feel something's still off.

But this is what everyone is most willing to believe, and it seems to be the most reasonable thing at present.

Although they were unaware of Ji Xinfeng's intentions in going there.

But since the person is dead, leaving behind a good reputation is probably the best outcome.

Regardless of the outcome, following Shen Hui's advice might be the best course of action.

Qin Ying wasn't completely clueless; he glanced at Shen Hui.

His eyes flickered, and it was unclear what he was thinking. Then he spoke:

"I was being rash. After all, Ji Xinfeng has been my teammate for so many years. I might have lost my mind over his death."

The remaining members of the Sharp Sword Organization looked at Qin Ying in surprise. "Captain..."

However, before they could continue speaking, Qin Ying interrupted them.

"Since Ji Xinfeng saved Shen Hui Hui's life with his own, I hope that Shen Hui will strive to live on and not let him down."

"Furthermore, since the Giant God Cult is targeting young friend Shen Hui, you'll need to be extra careful."

As Qin Ying spoke the words after surviving, he unconsciously emphasized each one.

Shen Hui sighed heavily again, "Senior, rest assured, I will definitely live up to everyone's expectations."

"When the time comes, I will definitely avenge Senior Ji Xinfeng and personally kill the Giant God Cult!"

The matter was thus considered closed.

Fan Hao began, "A funeral will be held for all our fallen comrades in three days. I hope everyone can attend."

"Meeting adjourned. Shen Hui, you stay behind for a moment."

Everyone's consciousness gradually faded within the building.

In the end, only Fan Hao and Shen Hui remained.

"President, what is it?"

Fan Hao looked at Shen Hui: "The information you gave me about the Giant God Cult has now been confirmed. Very good."

"Thanks to your information, even greater casualties were averted."

"Of course, Mr. General."

Shen Hui was unusually polite.

Fan Hao nodded and calmly said, "Everyone has their own secrets. If the Giant God Cult makes any further moves..."

Fan Hao stopped there.

Shen Hui was slightly startled; it seemed Fan Hao had already made some guesses.

Shen Hui chimed in, "As long as I can find out anything about the Giant God Cult, I will report back."

Fan Hao hummed in agreement. "The Giant God Cult may not be hiding in plain sight. Once things calm down a bit in the next couple of days, I'll notify Chi Yan and have her take you to the resource repository to apply for some resources."

Shen Hui was delighted to hear this.

Although he was a little confused by Fan Hao's first sentence, Shen Hui didn't ask any more questions because of the pressure he was under and left early.

"Yes, Master, I'll take my leave now."

Shen Hui's consciousness faded, Chi Yan, who was waiting nearby, asked when she saw Shen Hui open his eyes:

"So, is it a good thing or a bad thing?"

Shen Hui chuckled, "Of course it's a good thing. Take me to the resource repository in a couple of days."

Chi Yan laughed too, "Then you'd better cherish this opportunity and don't take anything without permission."

Shen Hui knew that the "Chi Yan" referred to the bug card or something similar that he had obtained before, which was useless to others.

There's nothing useless, it's just that it hasn't found the right place to be used.

"Kid, you're trying to lecture me now?"

As Chi Yan spoke, she reached out and grabbed Shen Hui's ear, Shen Hui cooperated by making a few noises.

The two of them put everything aside and returned to the simplest joy of playing around for a while, which helped them relax after a tiring day.

"Now that the Giant God Cult is keeping such a close eye on you, why don't you move in and continue living with me?"

"I bought a villa in another location."

Chi Yan looked at Shen Hui and asked.

Living with Chi Yan is quite nice.

However, Shen Hui still shook his head.

Since the Giant God Cult is targeting him so much, being with Chi Yan only makes him stand out more.

Besides, it's impossible for me to be with Chi Yan all the time.

In addition, he also had the identity of a Giant God Cult, giving him exclusive access to information channels.

It's actually better to be alone.

"No, President, I will protect myself."

Shen Hui doesn't plan to go back to live in Ye Long's apartment anymore.

"Okay, how about we have dinner together tonight?"

"Call Qingxue, and also Ye Long, Xiao Xiangyan, and the others."

"It feels like it's been a while since I've seen them, especially Qingxue."

Chi Yan spoke, she reminisced, expressing that she had a pretty good feeling about these little guys.

Moreover, they have the best relationship among them.

However, Shen Hui could only give an awkward smile upon hearing Chi Yan's words.

Qingxue probably hasn't woken up yet.

"President, how about another day? I'll invite you another time, and we'll all be there. I have something to do tonight."

Shen Hui didn't make up an excuse; he genuinely had something to do.

The World Association has given its report, but the Giant God Cult hasn't.

After all, the Giant God Cult who escaped was Shen Hui himself.

Chi Yan didn't say much more, "Alright, I'll remember that. You can go now if you need to."

Shen Hui nodded and slipped back to the house Ye Long had provided to start packing his things.

Actually, there wasn't much he wanted to take. Shen Hui was all alone; he owned nothing—no house, no furniture, nothing at all—and lived a carefree life.

However, some necessary waste still needs to be disposed of.

After finishing, Shen Hui waited quietly for the Giant God Cult meeting to begin that evening.
