Naturally, the Shen Emperor could tell.
His strong instinct told him that if he held it in, Lin Yi would lose for sure.
But in the end, he still made a move.
The only reason was that once he held it in, Lin Yi would become even more cautious than him when the highest pass disappeared completely. It would be extremely difficult to find a fatal flaw like this again.
It was better to take a gamble now and see if they could injure Lin Yi in one fell swoop than to fight Lin Yi to the death later!
He had baxia's defense, after all-even if he lost, Lin Yi wouldn't be able to hurt him.
At least from a logical point of view, this was definitely not a wrong choice.
Zhao Chen, Hechi, and the other two from the Alliance's security Department didn't think that there was anything wrong with the Shen Emperor's actions. On the contrary, they all thought that Lin Yi was going to go for wool and come home shorn.
