Die, Replay, Repeat

Chapter 233: Juggling Three Parties

Ace and King of Spades exchanged glances, a spark of excitement in their eyes.

They weren't just relieved that assassinating Yan Changshou had become easier; they were thrilled by the realization that Fang Xiu genuinely valued them.

The fact that he was willing to personally intervene to smooth the path for their mission showed how highly he regarded their abilities.

With this newfound confidence, the two were ready to go to any lengths for Fang Xiu.

"Yes, sir, we won't let you down!" they both responded eagerly, their voices brimming with determination.

"Hmm," Fang Xiu acknowledged with a cold nod. Then he told them something about Wen Yang before dismissing them.

"You may go now."

"Yes, sir!" they replied, then vanished into the shadows without another word.

Fang Xiu didn't bother asking how they planned to impersonate Wen Yang. He figured that the Pokers, such a powerful organization, could easily handle something as basic as a disguise.

Given that they had already infiltrated the headquarters unnoticed and prepped for tomorrow's attack, altering their appearance should be well within their capabilities.

The real reason Fang Xiu had summoned the Ace and King of Spades wasn't just to discuss Wen Yang—it was to set them on the trail of Yan Changshou's loyalists.

As one of the five captains, Yan Changshou had many subordinates who needed to be dealt with, and Fang Xiu intended to use the Ace and King of Spades to take care of them.

Yan Changshou himself wasn't their main target; that would be the headquarters' responsibility.

After putting all the pieces in place, Fang Xiu realized he was like a master puppeteer, skillfully manipulating Yan Changshou, the headquarters, and the Pokers, playing them off against each other. Using his foresight as a cover, he shifted between identities, deceiving all three sides.

Tomorrow, when these three forces clashed, Fang Xiu looked forward to seeing how the drama he had orchestrated would unfold.

Later that night, Fang Xiu returned to his hotel room.

Inside, Xiao Chuxia had reverted to her usual appearance and was sprawled out on the bed, fast asleep. Her limbs was splayed out in every direction, with a small trail of drool glistening at the corner of her mouth.

Seeing the bed wet once again, Fang Xiu couldn't help but ponder the nature of fate. "Is this destiny? No matter how many times I reset the world, I still can't escape this bed getting wet?"

SMACK!

"Ouch! Who hit me?" Xiao Chuxia jolted awake, startled. She glared at Fang Xiu when she realized it was him.

"Your task is done. Go sleep in your own room," Fang Xiu said calmly, not bothering to explain further.

"Hmph! Fine, I'll go! It's not like I want to sleep here anyway!" Xiao Chuxia huffed as she clambered off the bed, her hair a tangled mess.

But just as she was about to leave...

"Wait," Fang Xiu called out.

Xiao Chuxia turned back, her eyes narrowing suspiciously. "What now?"

"Do you want to increase the power of your lies?" Fang Xiu asked, his tone serious.

Xiao Chuxia blinked, caught off guard. "You want me to lie to you?"

"No, I'm going to take you to lie to someone else."

"Someone else? At this hour? Who could possibly—"

"That's not for you to worry about. What you need to do now is sleep."

Xiao Chuxia was more confused than ever. "Sleep? What are you planning?"

"I'm going to sleep too," Fang Xiu replied, his voice steady.

Xiao Chuxia's eyes widened in shock. "You want to sleep with me? No way—"

Before she could finish her protest, Fang Xiu knocked her out with a swift chop to the neck.

Fang Xiu really didn't have the patience to argue with Xiao Chuxia. After knocking her out, he closed his eyes, diving straight into her dream.

His goal was simple but ambitious: he wanted to test the potential of lying within a dream.

By merging his ability with Xiao Chuxia's unique talent, he was conducting an experiment that, if successful, could unlock tremendous possibilities.

The ability to manipulate reality through dreams, coupled with the power of deception, could be a game-changer, opening doors to strategies and outcomes that were previously unimaginable.

Fang Xiu understood the stakes. If this worked, the combination of their powers could become an invaluable asset, not just for the upcoming confrontation but for any challenge that lay ahead.
