Unless he has some way to force them or trick them into it, which is unlikely. Danny and Liu Xi are both far too smart (though we've never heard Danny's opinion on whether he likes or is attracted to Liu Xi, so that may change things).

There are two problems with that: 1) Liu Xi has been there before with Exu, and has learned to handle it better by now, and 2) She would know who sent her there and why, which would cause problems with the "experiment".
The sneakier route might be trying to separate Danny and Kerry in such a way so that Kerry becomes hateful toward Danny, and Danny's heart is destroyed. Liu Xi might treat him unusually well if she feels sorry for him, especially if he has to deal with a particularly vindictive Kerry. That's difficult though, because the two have so well bonded, and would take the kind of complex planning the Hooded Hood usually does to make it work without suspicion - because it also runs the risk of blowing up horribly in the Void Scholar's face if the plan is discovered. Literally.

I don't remember who was there, but I'm sure that's going to complicate things. Probably it's one of the juniors.

She might be frightened at first, but become incredibly efficient when she feels threatened. I don't think the pirates will have seen anything quite as fast or dangerous.

That's where Anna would excel. She could easily leave them all unconcious.

How does he handle that language barrier then?
