#1532 - Make things difficult
If she remained indifferent, or even tacitly acknowledged the title, the so-called secret victory from before would be nullified.
But if she refuted the title, it would be her who initiated calling him 'Lord,' wouldn't that give others something to gossip about?
After much deliberation, Nine Heavens Phoenix ultimately decided to swallow this bitter pill.
She cast a disgusted glance at Qin Yi, who had transformed into the Ten Ravens, and then Nine Heavens Phoenix coldly snorted and walked ahead.
Seeing this, Qin Yi wasn't annoyed. He had already won once, so there was no need to provoke Nine Heavens Phoenix further.
Provocation had to be done step by step. If one provoked too intensely at once, it would only cause the other party to explode.
This was one of the weaknesses of living beings. When pain was concentrated, there would be fierce resistance.
But when the pain was more dispersed, even if one was unwilling in their heart, they could suppress it.
Boiling a frog in warm water was exactly this principle!
Nine Heavens Phoenix walked in front, and Qin Yi followed behind, seemingly treating her as a servant.
Nine Heavens Phoenix was extremely frustrated, but she couldn't vent it. She led Qin Yi to her office and said:
"Ten Ravens, this is where you and I will be working in the future."
Qin Yi raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Why aren't you calling me 'Lord'? You were calling me 'Lord Ten Ravens' just now!"
Nine Heavens Phoenix's face darkened and she said, "Ten Ravens, isn't this a bit inappropriate?"
Qin Yi said indifferently, "What's so bad about this? I don't see anything wrong with it!"
"Next time, remember to call me 'Lord,' Little Nine!"
Nine Heavens Phoenix gritted her teeth and said, "Yes, Lord Ten Ravens!"
She was now thinking about how to quickly turn the tables and reclaim her position within the Chaos Gods.
When that time came, she would properly punish this ignorant thing!
Qin Yi said, "You said this is where you and I will be working in the future? Oh, let me correct that."
As he spoke, Qin Yi went to the corner and drew out an area of less than two square meters, saying, "This will be where you work from now on. The rest of the space is mine!"
As soon as he said this, Nine Heavens Phoenix, consumed by anger, could no longer endure it and slammed her palm on the table.
"Bang!" After a muffled sound, the table exploded.
Qin Yi looked at Nine Heavens Phoenix and said, "Little Nine, you broke my table in my office. Isn't that a bit too much?"
Nine Heavens Phoenix had never seen such a shameless person.
What did he mean by 'his' office and 'his' table! Every blade of grass and tree here was personally created by Nine Heavens Phoenix in the past.
Which of these many secret bases didn't have Nine Heavens Phoenix's design and participation?
How did it become his now!
Before Nine Heavens Phoenix could speak, even more infuriating words came from Qin Yi's mouth:
"Breaking my table requires compensation! How many cultivation resources are you planning to compensate me with?"
Nine Heavens Phoenix suppressed the killing intent in her heart and turned to leave the room.
Qin Yi's voice came from behind her: "Young people have such big tempers, Little Nine. You need to change this, or you will suffer in the future."
Nine Heavens Phoenix gritted her teeth and whispered, "Change? Heh, in a while, I'll personally send you on your way!"
A plan to kill with a borrowed knife had already emerged in her mind.
This knife was naturally the Heavenly Emperor's incarnation. Since the other party was always opposing her, she might as well release a signal to let the other party attack this base.
At that time, she would kill this hateful Ten Ravens.
In this way, she would both get rid of someone monitoring her and vent her anger.
Most importantly, the higher-ups of the Chaos Gods wouldn't be able to find Nine Heavens Phoenix's involvement in this kind of plan to kill with a borrowed knife.
The more Nine Heavens Phoenix thought about it, the more feasible it seemed... It was just a pity that she didn't know that the Heavenly Emperor's incarnation she placed her hopes on and the Ten Ravens in front of her were actually the same person.
Time passed in the blink of an eye, and three days went by.
During these three days, Qin Yi made things difficult for Nine Heavens Phoenix in every possible way.
Nine Heavens Phoenix had wanted to kill this bastard in front of her several times, but she endured it for the sake of the bigger picture.
"Why hasn't the Heavenly Emperor's incarnation come yet? I've already released the news. Logically speaking, he's as sensitive as a dog's nose. He should be here by now," Nine Heavens Phoenix thought to herself.
In the office, Qin Yi did what he said and gave Nine Heavens Phoenix that space of less than two square meters.
No matter how unwilling Nine Heavens Phoenix was in her heart, she endured it.
She had already endured so much, so this little bit didn't matter.
In Nine Heavens Phoenix's heart, as long as the Heavenly Emperor's incarnation descended, all of this would be easily resolved.
Nine Heavens Phoenix, who was plotting, soon heard the sound of sleeping. Looking at Qin Yi, who did nothing but eat and sleep every day, it was really difficult for her to explain her inner feelings.
"How could those high-level Chaos Gods who are at odds with me send such an idiot?"
Nine Heavens Phoenix initially thought that her opponent was a clever expert, but she didn't expect him to be such a fool!
But it was precisely such a fool that made her extremely uncomfortable!
The struggles between smart people are mostly based on mental strength. When making any decision, they will consider whether this decision will bring them negative consequences.
How could she compare to Qin Yi, who wore the Ten Ravens' disguise and had no scruples in doing anything.
Of course, all of this was intentional by Qin Yi, and his purpose was to break Nine Heavens Phoenix's mentality.
Two hours later, Qin Yi 'slowly woke up' and said sleepily, "Little Nine, what are we eating for lunch today?"
Nine Heavens Phoenix thought to herself, "Eat! Eat! Eat! All you know is eating. You'll die from stuffing yourself sooner or later, you idiot!"
"I'm currently a dragon stranded in shallow waters being mocked by shrimp. Wait until I recover!"
"He's already at this level of cultivation, yet he still can't break free from his desires! It's truly despicable!"
Thinking this in her heart, Nine Heavens Phoenix said, "Lord Ten Ravens, the food for lunch has already been prepared. When are you planning to eat it?"
Qin Yi said, "Little Nine, the things made by those servants who do odd jobs are like chewing wax. Why don't you cook yourself?"
Nine Heavens Phoenix's face stiffened and she said, "Lord Ten Ravens is joking. I don't know how to cook at all."
Qin Yi said, "If you don't know how, you can learn. It's decided, you will cook lunch."
After a pause, Qin Yi added, in order to prevent Nine Heavens Phoenix from refusing, "If you refuse, I don't know if I'll exaggerate and report your recent situation."
What was this? Blatant intimidation!
In the past few days, in order to get Nine Heavens Phoenix to do things she didn't want to do, Qin Yi had used this trick repeatedly and it never failed!
What was Nine Heavens Phoenix afraid of now? Was she afraid of Qin Yi wearing the disguise of Ten Ravens? Of course not!
What Nine Heavens Phoenix was most afraid of now was the little bit of power that the Ten Ravens' disguise possessed!
This little bit of power was something that Nine Heavens Phoenix wouldn't even look at normally, but in the current situation... especially after she falsely reported her merits, it was the last straw that broke the camel's back!
In these troubled times, Nine Heavens Phoenix was unwilling to create more trouble for herself.
