The Calm Matsushita Xingyue!

Regarding this Matsushita Xingyue, Qin Feng's original plan was to simply kill her off.

But after seeing her, he suddenly had other ideas.

Of course, they weren't any strange or perverted ideas.

Rather, perhaps keeping this young girl around would be more useful than simply killing her?

At this moment.

When Kameyama Sasuke's corpse fell stiffly beside Matsushita Xingyue, it caused the girl in the lolita dress to turn incredibly pale.

She accidentally crushed the lollipop she had been holding in her small mouth.

The crisp 'crack' sound made her eyes even more anxious, fearing that she would also be cut down by the 'Shadow' before her!

She didn't think her status as a female would bring her any convenience.

One had to know…

The opponent was Shadow!

In today's East Capital, in the eyes of almost everyone, this 'Shadow' was the 'demon' who watched as over a hundred thousand people in the East Capital were strangled to Death by that long-tailed snake goddess statue!

There was now a very certain saying among the people of the East Capital.

That is, when the incident occurred, Shadow was definitely nearby.

But even though Shadow clearly had the ability to avoid and resolve that statue, he had no intention of stepping in to save them… he was a demon!

However, Matsushita Xingyue did not think so.

In her eyes, 'Shadow' was an extremely calm powerhouse.

Most people in the East Capital believed that 'Shadow' completely lacked any humanitarian spirit, otherwise, he would have saved those hundred thousand people.

But Matsushita Xingyue had actually refuted those people's views: "If Shadow had acted in advance and destroyed the long-tailed snake goddess statue, you would probably be cursing him, thinking he hindered you from becoming stronger, right?"

Matsushita Xingyue asked herself.

Even if it were her, in that situation at the time, it would have been impossible to act in advance!

She knew.

Shadow was far too calm.

And at this very moment, she had no expectations at all that the 'Shadow' before her would show her any mercy!

Only the fear of Death made her whole body tremble slightly, but she still plucked up the courage to ask in her unpracticed great xia language: "I… I know I'm dead. But before I die, I want to know, what happened to my brother?"

She spoke quite quickly.

Because she was afraid she wouldn't have time to finish her words before being killed by Shadow.

But fortunately, the Shadow in front of her didn't seem to make any move…

This made her increasingly nervous!

She didn't know what 'Shadow' wanted to do.

…

In fact, Qin Feng had just diverted his attention to check the soul and memories of 'Kameyama Sasuke,' which had been drawn into the White Sprout Blade.

Kameyama Sasuke was an important figure in the Sakura Country officialdom.

It could be said that in the entire Sakura Country, very few people knew more than Kameyama Sasuke!

Through Kameyama Sasuke's memories, Qin Feng first learned that the girl before him, Matsushita Xingyue, held the life souls of nineteen first-rate powerhouses of the Sakura Country in her hands, and could cause their Deaths at any time!

And those nineteen first-rate powerhouses were basically people who weren't very well controlled by the Sakura Country officials, or rather, people who had committed some offenses.

Since Matsushita Xingyue was not an official person and her background was quite ordinary, the official trust in her was also very average.

Those they gave her to control were all problematic figures like Tejima Ichiro.

Such figures existed in Great Xia as well.

Qin Feng knew that during the previous Phoenix Egg incident in Hai City, the Hai City powerhouse Yunjianyue had lost a younger brother and a devoted pursuer. Although everything was 'Yunjianyue's' own doing, to prevent her from causing trouble, the Great Xia Officials had sent the Soul Reaper 'Miss Luo' from the Capital to take her life soul, thereby bringing her under control.

The nineteen Sakura Country powerhouses under Matsushita Xingyue were basically such figures.

They were held hostage by the officials while also being utilized by them.

And because the Sakura Country officials did not fully trust Matsushita Xingyue, they had also placed a 'Symbiotic Curse' on her!

It linked her life with the lives of the other nineteen people.

If she actively wiped out the life souls of the nineteen powerhouses under her, then she herself would also die!

Nineteen people linked to her alone.

As for the connections between those nineteen people themselves, there were none.

In this way, they could threaten Matsushita Xingyue at critical moments.

"These political official types are truly more sinister than the last…"

Qin Feng narrowed his eyes. Obviously, to some extent, the Great Xia Officials were the same, except that when dealing with Qin Feng, the Great Xia Officials didn't play any tricks.

This was the influence brought by strength!

Otherwise, Qin Feng would have been like his life before last, having both cooperation and wariness with the Great Xia Officials, along with various balancing measures.

But the Great Xia Officials at this moment…

Basically had no defenses against Qin Feng, let alone any measures like balancing.

Because defenses and balancing were simply useless.

The current Great Xia officialdom was definitely one of the organizations that understood Qin Feng best!

"A Soul Reaper can control the life souls of other players, provided the other party agrees."

"Then… if I use this method to take control of those with the most say in the Sakura Country, how will the Sakura Country respond?"

Qin Feng saw a convenient path to completely turn the Sakura Country into his next 'pig farm'!

From White Sprout, Qin Feng could see it.

tradable lifespan was extremely important, even for existences in the Order Land or higher levels.

Moreover, the higher the level, the more lifespan was required!

"Since I'm going to use the Youlan Civilization to head to the Order Land, then… why not turn the Blue Star Civilization into my personal factory?"

Let all the players in the world work for him!

If this kind of thing were done openly, it would definitely cause countless people to rebel and fight for their lives.

Although Qin Feng wasn't afraid, it would be very troublesome to deal with, and a complete waste of time for him.

But if he became the boss behind the scenes, there would be no problem at all.

For example…

On the Great Han Country's side, having Virginie go there to carry out the work of ruling was basically almost done, and the lifespan income obtained was extremely considerable.

As for Los Angeles, the income it brought to Qin Feng now was a bit low.

Only five thousand years of lifespan a day—was that meant for a beggar?

"Come to think of it, on the Trembling Clown's side, it should be about time for it to evolve into a Legendary grade, right?"

Qin Feng thought to himself: "It's about time to raise the price, and while I'm at it, give that Trembling Clown a warning, lest it thinks that evolving into a Legendary grade means it can negotiate terms with me."

Of course, that was a secondary matter for now, no rush.

For the moment, he could deal with the Sakura Country first.

So Qin Feng looked at the Soul Reaper girl before him. Hearing her question just now, he was suddenly a bit curious…

What kind of attitude did this girl actually have toward her brother, Matsushita Nikken?

And when facing him, what were her thoughts?

These two points would determine Qin Feng's way of handling her!
