Chapter 193 Canglin Tournament (8)

The voice of “Stopped” with the flying stone had immediately changed the condition.

Just as all the people present were shocked by the change, the man in the dark suddenly rushed out. His presence, contrary to the direction of his voice, didn’t appear on Shi Yanran’s side but behind Feng Bujue.

The man wore green clothing just like the person who had died on the ground. Because he had acted too fast to be caught by the eye and was intentionally blocking his face, even the closest person Feng Bujue wasn’t able to see his face, the only thing that he was able to discern was the fact that the man had a square face, was tall and strong and had powerful moves.

As soon as Feng Bujue noticed the man’s movement he turned around and tried to meet the enemy but didn’t know that the target of the intruder was not even him.

Unexpectedly, he went to the man who had been killed and roared out, he turned his hand and targeted the dead body on the ground. He had been planning this for a long time so the resulting attack was very powerful.

Feng Bujue knew the man’ s intention in an instant but wasn’t able to do anything about it. Wang Ao’s body was smashed by the man’s attack, his body which was peppered with darts immediately broke apart.

After the man attacked Wang Ao’s body he gave a quick shout to Shi Yanran “Go!”. As he shouted he slapped Feng Bujue who was in front of him, forcing him to move backward.

Shi Yanran seemed to be aware of what was going on and knew the man, so she whirled away while throwing out dozens of darts to cover their retreat.

The speed and the strength of the darts that were thrown out weren’t much but there were too many of them and it formed a blanket of safety behind them so they could retreat. Like Rain and Wang Thanzi who were the closest to them had to move back while blocking. It was obvious that Shi Yanran was in a hurry to leave, concentrating her energy on escaping instead of delaying the players.

The unknown man and Shi Yanran went in different directions and the players couldn’t catch up. Of the five players, Feng Bujue was the only one who could chase after them over long distances and that was if he maintained [Body-Spirit Congregation]. Although Like Rain’s skill was better than Feng Bujue, she didn’t have enough support skills. The only way the others could catch up to the two without skills is if they were level 25.

“What just happened?” Wang Tanzhi asked.

Just as he finished asking, Dispirited said “Don’t you understand? They’re pinning it on us.”

“Huh?” Little Tan obviously mentioned nothing.

Ji Bu was just as confused, “What do you mean?”

“Isn’t it obvious?” before the two knew it, Feng Bujue had deactivated  [Body-Spirit Congregation] and answered, “No one can identify the killer if the dead body is destroyed to pieces, so they will be able to say whatever they want” and walking towards Wang Ao’s corpse, “from what the woman said, she didn’t want to be known as the murderer so being the only witnesses of the crime she’d pin it on us.”

“From her point of view, there are two options.”

“First, Kill Wang Ao and escape without showing her face.”

“The second one is to kill us all.”

“She obviously chose the latter, which means that her martial arts and weapons are highly known to the people. To the point that she felt that even though we didn’t see the killer’s face since we saw the dead body we would be able to immediately know who it was. So, when she saw me approaching, she decisively made her move.”

“Oh! So that’s why you started off by saying that you didn’t know them, and you would deal with the body yourself.” Little Tan was enlightened.

“I knew what she was thinking so I tried to resolve the situation peacefully but unfortunately, she didn’t believe us. It’s human nature of course, even if it were me in the same situation, I wouldn’t have believed in such a promise, even if they swore to secrecy. Who knows if they’d blackmail me next?”

Feng Bujue moved closer to the corpse. “The man who came out earlier was probably there from the very beginning. He probably assumed that the woman would be able to kill us all.” He mused. “the masterminds of this script seemed to know that we knew nothing of martial arts and didn’t have inner Qi just from observing us.” He flicked the darts from the meat with the wrench and held them in front of his eyes. “They didn’t expect that we would be hard to deal with and that the woman wasn’t fairing well so the man took action.”

Feng Bujue began searching the side of the corpse which was in a better condition than the rest of the body “they did a nice work destroying the body.” He said in an approving tone. “Now that the corpse is in this condition they’ll be able to say that we were the culprits and they were the ones fighting us explaining the scattered darts on the ground.” Feng Bujue sneered. “The man just watched for a long time while he was plotting against us before he burst out, he saved the woman in her hour of danger and at the same time deliberately used his voice to disturb us. Then he appeared out of nowhere and struck the body where it was full of the woman’s weapons.”

“If the body were in good condition there would have been a difference between the flying weapon and the postmortem injuries. The signs of the fatal wound would be there. But now…” “Even if we take out the darts that are stuck in the flesh, it wouldn’t give us anything. In this situation, any kind of martial art would be able to explain this type of damage, nobody would question it even if were by a wild animal.”

“Are we gonna be taking the fall then?” Ji Bu asked.

“It doesn’t matter.” Feng Bujue found nothing from his search, so he shrugged and stood up.

“How come?” Wang Tanzhi asked confused.

Like Rain suddenly said “Bluff???”

“Clever.” Feng Bujue smirked and winked at her.

“This indeed the way.” followed Dispirted.

Ji Bu with an inexplicable expression exclaimed, “What the heck are you guys talking about!? Speak normally!”

Feng Bujue turned around to look at Ji Bu and Little Tan then laughed. “You’ll understand tomorrow.”
