Chapter 640: Boss, You’re Really Smart
No one dared to doubt Chi Jiao’s words anymore.
Doubting her was the equivalent of doubting the Evil Deity. They didn’t dare to blaspheme the gods.
Chi Jiao turned to look at Old Man Liu. “What about you? Do you have any questions?”
Old Man Liu hurriedly shook his head. “No, no.”
“Then, you can tell the truth now. Did we beat you to near-death as you said?” Chi Jiao asked with a smile.
At this moment, Old Man Liu really did not dare to lie anymore. He shook his head vigorously. “No, it’s my fault. I shouldn’t have framed you!”
“The Evil Deity said that he would give you a chance to atone for your sins. Don’t be afraid,” Chi Jiao said.
“How can I atone for my sins?” Old Man Liu asked hurriedly.
“Get someone to slap you 50 times a day for a week. The Evil Deity said he would forgive you then,” Chi Jiao said with a smile.
Old Man Liu felt that she was messing with him, but he had no proof.
As a result, Old Man Liu just nodded vigorously again. He really didn’t dare to go against the Evil Deity.
“Please, can we leave now?” Chi Jiao asked the village chief.
The village chief didn’t dare to stop her. This girl could actually hear the will of the Evil Deity. Perhaps she was the Evil Deity’s messenger!
The village chief gestured respectfully at her.
“Please go ahead. I’ll escort you myself.”
He knew that some outsiders were coming to the village. Ah Ping had already informed him beforehand, so he knew that Chi Jiao and Pei Yao were staying at Ah Ping’s house.
“There’s no need to personally escort us.” Chi Jiao waved her hand with a calm expression. She walked to Pei Yao’s side and held her hand before walking towards the entrance of the main hall.
The crowd automatically made way for her. Every villager looked at her with respect.
After leaving the village chief’s house, Chi Jiao and Pei Yao happened to meet Quan Jue, Huo Chen, and Beitang Lie, who had come looking for them.
They heard from Ah Ping that they had gotten into trouble and were brought to the village chief’s house, so they hurried over.
“Are you guys alright?” Huo Chen asked anxiously.
Quan Jue quickly sized her up from head to toe. Seeing that her face was ruddy and didn’t look like she was injured, he felt relieved.
“We’re fine. Let’s go back first,” Chi Jiao said with a smile.

After returning to Ah Ping’s house, Chi Jiao sent the couple away and closed the door to the main room. She then told Quan Jue, Huo Chen, and Beitang Lie about what had happened.
“Boss, you’re really smart!” Beitang Lie gave her a thumbs up.
“I hope that you can keep my supernatural power a secret,” Chi Jiao said seriously to the group in front of her.
These were the people she trusted the most.
“Don’t worry, I won’t tell anyone.” Beitang Lie knew what kind of trouble would befall Chi Jiao if her superpower was revealed to others.
Pei Yao and Huo Chen nodded firmly.
Quan Jue didn’t even need to state his stance. Chi Jiao knew that he would definitely not tell anyone.
“Our operation in this village will definitely be more smooth from now on,” Chi Jiao said.
Originally, this village was rather xenophobic and was rather unfriendly towards outsiders.
Earlier at the village chief’s house, she had this idea to use the Evil Deity as a cover.
The villagers all believed in the Evil Deity. Now that their group had the backing of the Evil Deity, they would be able to move more freely in the village..
