Chapter 302: Living Sacrifice

The bald sorcerer did not expect Cheng Xi to be so extreme as to give up on saving Lily. He quickly stopped her and said, “Don’t be anxious. We can discuss it slowly.”
“What’s there to discuss? You also said that Lily won’t be able to last long,”
Cheng Xi said angrily. “If it weren’t for Lily, I would’ve wanted that bastard, Devon, dead for doing something like that. Since you’re not saying anything, I can’t save him. I’ll go home and prepare for our funeral.”
Cheng Xi’s extremeness left Baldy at a loss. He could only persuade her to calm down. Then, he looked at Lily, who was silent, and said, “Lily, Uncle said this to save your life. Even if it’s for yourself, you have to persuade Mom.”
Lily would have a hard time understanding these words, not to mention that it was actually Yunbao standing here. She did not understand a word of what the two of them said. She just stared at the bald wizard without saying anything.
Seeing that there was really no other way, the bald sorcerer could only choose to tell the truth. After persuading Cheng Xi to return to the private room, he poured water for her, thinking that he, a dignified sorcerer, actually faced a time when he had to be so lowly.
Cheng Xi sat there stubbornly and said, “Since you called me back, then tell me everything that needs to be said.”
Baldy quietly cast a spell at the door to ensure that no one would come in halfway. Then, he said, “This matter will start with our entire organization. Our organization doesn’t belong to any wizard society, but we have lofty ideals…
“Alright, these words are giving me a headache. Hurry up and get to the point.” Cheng Xi was really a little frustrated. This big bald man was talking too much.
The bald sorcerer was about to speak when he was ruthlessly interrupted by
Cheng Xi. He cleared his throat and said, “Then let’s talk about the sale of children. This matter is because of the god we believe in.”
After saying that, he hesitated and looked at Lily, as if he was hesitating whether to say it in front of the child. Cheng Xi did not know if she should let Yunbao hear it.
Yunbao reached out and held Cheng Xi’s hand, using a spell to tell her that she could listen.
Cheng Xi thought of how Yunbao was also a sorcerer and said, “Lily can just listen here. After being beaten up by that bastard Devon for five years, she probably won’t be frightened by anything.”
Hearing her say that, the bald sorcerer could only continue, “The god our society believes in needs live sacrifices, and it must be children under the age of ten. Only then can the god respond to our request. Devon has always been in charge of buying qualified sacrifices. We thought that he had already dealt with those corpses, but we didn’t expect him to throw them all in his own territory. The police found them easily, so you have to come forward to temporarily fish them out.”
Cheng Xi tried her best to maintain an expressionless face. She had long hated these people in her heart. They actually used children as sacrifices. It was not just one. They might have killed many children over the years. What they worshipped was probably not a god, someone who used humans as sacrifices must be a demon.
Cheng Xi said, “Aren’t you thinking too highly of me? The police have already dug out the corpses. Even if I appear, I won’t be able to save him.”
Seeing that Cheng Xi did not show any dissatisfaction with the sacrifice, the bald sorcerer knew that this matter should succeed. It seemed that Cheng Xi was not a kind person. As long as she could save Lily, she would definitely cooperate with them.
Baldy smiled and said, “Of course you can step in. Legally, you’re still his wife, but you’ve already proposed a divorce, so the jury will definitely believe your testimony on this case. As long as you say something that’s in Devon’s favor, we can bail him out and save Lily.”
Cheng Xi looked at him coldly. “Even if I can say this in Country Ys court, how are you going to get him out of the current prison? He hijacked a plane and caused it to crash. Such a huge crime can’t be easily gotten out.”
“You don’t have to worry about that,” Baldy said confidently. “I’ll get the embassy of Country Y to negotiate. After the sentence, we’ll extradite the person back to our country to be tried for the sale of children. We can tell the Chinese government that he will be sent back to serve his sentence after the trial.’
Cheng Xi sharply sensed the main point of his words and asked, “You make it sound like your family owns the embassy. Could it be that you know someone there?”
“l don’t just know him. One of the wizards in our club is from the embassy,”
Baldy said proudly..
