"That's true." Avril suddenly seemed relieved, comfortably leaning on the couch. If she didn't know Ye Shikai before and hadn't known his identity, perhaps Avril would have been trembling with fear by now, being with the Netherworld King for so long; thinking about it indeed made her excited.
"No wonder Zeus suddenly received news of his death, it should have something to do with you, right?" Avril asked curiously.
"Indeed." Ye Shikai nodded in agreement. If it weren't for his partnership with Chen Yuxin for profit, he wouldn't have brought upon himself such mortal danger.
Ye Shikai considered himself not much nobler than Zeus; they were birds of a feather. Working with them meant bearing the costs of "collaboration" at any time. A slight misstep could lead to eternal damnation. Zeus's most foolish aspect was his desperation for breakthroughs, forgetting caution, lull into complacency, which led to his demise due to Chen Yuxin and Ji Qian's plot.
