"Why?" Old Ma didn't understand. He looked at Silver Fox. "If it is his own son, why not let him sit in that seat? Isn't it always said that sons inherit their fathers' work?"
Silver Fox slowly took a sip of coffee before speaking again. "Because the Holy Cult is fighting against a country. No matter what the Godfather's ambitions are, he is definitely a smart man. He knows a cult cannot compare to a nation. So, who knows the future of the Holy Cult? It might just disappear. In such a situation, how could the Godfather let his own son become the Holy Son?"
"Then who is the current Holy Son to the Godfather?" Old Ma was confused.
"Nobody." Silver Fox smiled slightly.
"Then how did he get that position?" Old Ma was even more puzzled now.
"Isn't that for you to ask me?" Silver Fox held his coffee cup in one hand and put the other in his pocket. He walked to the window, looking outside, not expecting Old Ma to answer. "If I guess correctly, the Godfather's main purpose is to have the Holy Son occupy that seat. It is to prevent certain people from taking it."
"Occupy the seat?" Old Ma laughed dryly. "Boss, you are getting more mysterious. What is the point of occupying a seat? The Holy Cult was founded by the Godfather. If he wants someone to be Holy Son, that person is Holy Son. Does he need someone to hold the spot?"
"What if there is a very suitable person, but this person is not suitable to appear in public right now?" Silver Fox tilted his head, looking at Old Ma. "Old Ma, you cannot look at things from only one side. We might not guess all of the Godfather's thoughts, but we can guess some. I feel the Godfather seems to want to lead the Holy Cult in another direction."
"What direction?" Old Ma asked quickly.
"Either destruction, or complete reform and whitewashing. Anyway, it is one of these two endings." Silver Fox finished the coffee in his cup and placed it on the nearby coffee table.
"Hiss~" Old Ma rubbed his arms. "Boss, hearing you say that, I feel goosebumps. It seems a bit terrifying."
"What is terrifying about it?" Silver Fox said calmly. "We all know what kind of person the Godfather is. It is very normal for him to have such thoughts."
"Then this Holy Son is too pitiful. Just holding the seat? He might die and no one will remember him?" Old Ma felt sorry for the Holy Son.
"Whether people remember or not is not important. What is important now is whether the Holy Son will die this time." Silver Fox smiled lightly. "Do you think Yan Aohan will spare the Holy Son?"
"I don't know." Old Ma gave Silver Fox a very direct answer. "To be honest, this Yan Aohan is like you, Boss. I cannot guess what you two are thinking. So asking me this question is useless."
"I was just asking casually." Silver Fox smiled slightly. "Old Ma, go book a flight to the capital. I want to see Zhu Yanyi."
"See the Little Divine Doctor? Why?" Old Ma looked at Silver Fox. "Boss, don't be unable to let go. The capital is the territory of the Capital Venerable Yanluo. Don't offend the Capital Venerable Yanluo."
"What are you thinking? So unreliable." Silver Fox glanced at Old Ma. "I want to see Zhu Yanyi simply because I want to meet her. You will know some things later. For now, hurry up and book the ticket."
"Oh." Old Ma agreed. As long as his boss was not going to offend Yan Aohan, everything was fine.
Zhu Yanyi did not know Silver Fox was coming to the capital. Even if she knew, she would not care.
Zhu Yanyi was sitting in a tree, swinging her legs comfortably. She was watching the standoff between the Holy Son, Yin Mei, and the wild beasts.
"You guys say, how long will they keep staring at each other?" Zhu Yanyi took out a lollipop and started eating. These lollipops were actually from her Ruyi Space, which she had transferred to her backpack.
"Sister-in-law, you even brought lollipops?" Zhou Feng was especially impressed by Zhu Yanyi's action. They came here for serious business, but she had prepared everything for a vacation.
Zhu Yanyi patted her backpack. "There are more. Do you want one?"
"Yes." Zhou Feng nodded. Waiting was really boring, so they needed to find something to do.
Zhu Yanyi took out lollipops and handed one to each person.
Everyone didn't hesitate. Each took a lollipop and started eating. Luo Gang said directly, "To be honest, their standoff seems meaningless."
"It's fine. The effect of my medicine lasts twenty-four hours. After twenty-four hours of hunger, what do you think these beasts will do?" Zhu Yanyi said with a smile. She was here to watch the show and didn't worry about being discovered.
Actually, even if someone discovered her, they probably wouldn't care about her.
"Holy Son, this time we can only cooperate." Yin Mei's mood was also very heavy. He had noticed something wrong. The wild beasts here seemed to be increasing. The scariest part was that they seemed to have become food for these beasts.
There were wild chickens and rabbits nearby, but the beasts surrounding them ignored them completely. Their eyes focused directly on the humans. This made Yin Mei's heart sink continuously.
"How to cooperate?" Even if the Holy Son was stupid, he knew that once life was lost, everything was over. So at this moment, no matter how unwilling he was, cooperation was inevitable.
"We can only fight our way out." Yin Mei said directly.
"Fight our way out? Are you joking?" The Holy Son pointed at the countless beasts in front of them. "How can we kill these beasts? We have guns, but we don't have many bullets."
"Being trapped here is not a solution. We must find a way to break out, then climb the trees. Maybe after a long time, these beasts will stop looking for us." Yin Mei said directly.
Although he knew the chance was not very high, there was still some hope.
The Holy Son looked at An Qi beside him. "An Qi, did you find the thing that attracted these beasts?" The Holy Son still suspected there was something attracting the beasts, so he had sent An Qi to investigate.
An Qi shook his head slightly. "I have checked the surrounding area. There is nothing. This place is our temporary rest camp. We have already cleaned it. There is nothing else here, not even a flower or a blade of grass."
"Damn it, what attracted these animals?" The Holy Son's eyes were almost red. If this continued, the situation would be very bad.
"Holy Son, if you have time to curse, why don't we cooperate to get out?" Yin Mei's mood was also bad.
