Chapter 102 Is the Black-Clad Assassin the Real Culprit?
Chapter 102 Is the Black-Clad Assassin the Real Culprit?
Chu Feng took a deep breath before slowly saying, "You have an aura that is very similar to that of Feng Ziying and Feng Guangyao from the Ten Cities Grand Competition. Therefore, I have determined that you are a member of the Feng family."
After saying that, Chu Feng pointed at Feng Dawei and said, "Not only you, but this City Lord Feng should also be a member of the Feng family."
The Great Reincarnation Technique ring in his mind is currently of little use and has not shown any extraordinary properties. However, since breaking through to the Yuan Dan stage, Chu Feng has suddenly developed a sense of bloodline aura.
This is a change brought about by the Great Reincarnation Technique's ring, locking in the bloodline's aura.
For example, when he saw Wen Zhenyuan, Wen Jiannan, and Wen Mengting, he could vaguely sense that the three of them shared the same bloodline.
Even if they were disguised or wearing masks, Chu Feng could still sense it.
He believes that he will be able to recognize anyone related to the Wen family by blood in the future.
The same goes for the Feng family.
Upon hearing this, the man was immediately shocked: "Who are you? You actually know the head of my Feng family? And Young Master Feng Ziying?"
Feng Dawei also looked at Chu Feng, wanting to hear what Chu Feng had to say.
Chu Feng sneered, "During the Ten Cities Grand Competition, the Feng family was very powerful, and many people saw that."
Upon hearing this, Feng Dawei and the man's faces immediately turned ugly. Although Feng Ziying had won third place in the competition, the Feng family had lost face. Now that Chu Feng had said it, the two men were filled with resentment.
“That’s right, I am Feng Gongfeng from the Feng family. What do you want?” Feng Gongfeng asked.
Chu Feng pointed to the people in the hall and asked, "Who else here is your accomplice?"
Feng Gongfeng's eyes flickered, but he remained silent.
Chu Feng glanced at him and said, "Is there someone here that your Feng family can't afford to offend? Is the Feng family not the mastermind behind this?"
Feng Gongfeng sneered, "Aren't you very capable? Can't you find it?"
Chu Feng laughed and said, "It doesn't matter whether you talk or not, they can't escape anyway. But you've also been poisoned. If you talk, I'll give you a chance to commit suicide, so you won't die such a miserable death."
Feng Gongfeng cried out in horror, "What? I've been poisoned too?"
Chu Feng sneered, "Don't you know you're just cannon fodder? Look at your fingernails, aren't some of them already blackened?"
The reason Chu Feng stopped Xiao Hui from killing was twofold: firstly, he didn't want the Sword Sect's reputation to be ruined; secondly, since they were all poisoned, they would die anyway, so why waste his energy?
Feng Gongfeng looked at his fingernails, his face suddenly turning ashen. He knelt down in front of Feng Dawei and cried out in anguish, "Brother Wei, save me! Brother Wei! They're too cruel; they even poisoned me!"
To his surprise, Feng Dawei ignored him completely and instead looked at his own fingernails!
Upon seeing this, Feng Dawei's expression changed drastically!
"You surnamed Luo, you not only poisoned them, but you also poisoned me?" Feng Dawei turned around and asked the Void God stage cultivator standing behind him.
This person was a cultivator at the third level of the Void God stage, carrying a long sword.
The man surnamed Luo said with a forced smile, "You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. We just came to help Lord Feng because we saw he was in trouble. How could we possibly poison you?"
Feng Dawei glared at the man and said through gritted teeth, "The City Lord's Mansion of Tianfu City sent a letter ordering my Feng family to cooperate with the Luo family to deal with the Sword Sect. Now you not only deny it, but you also poisoned me. Aren't you afraid that this matter will get out?"
After saying that, Feng Dawei took out a letter and threw it directly at Chu Feng.
The man surnamed Luo sneered, "Hey, you surnamed Feng, don't spout nonsense. Who said the Luo family is going to deal with the Sword Sect? It was clearly the Pill Pavilion that invited us to come and cooperate with your Feng family. I can understand that you've been poisoned, but don't talk nonsense, or I'll kill you!"
After saying that, the man also took out a letter and threw it at Chu Feng.
Chu Feng took the two letters and read them. He found that both of them were correct. The letter that Feng Dawei took out was signed by the City Lord's Mansion of Tianfu City; the letter that the man surnamed Luo took out was signed by Danlou.
Cultivators use communication talismans, communication stones, and even image-recording talismans to send messages. Why then use letters to send messages?
The two men were passing the buck, and it became increasingly confusing who was lying.
Chu Feng casually tossed the two letters into his storage ring. He discovered that the two letters shared the same aura.
There might be a third party involved.
"Lord Feng, regardless of who poisoned you, your presence here today is aimed at the Sword Sect's assets. Since you yourselves don't know who sent you, then the Sword Sect will not make things difficult for you. You may all leave," Chu Feng said calmly.
"What? They came to cause trouble, and you just let them go like that?" Xiao Hui shouted angrily.
You had your aunt block the gate to prevent these people from leaving, but now you're letting them go?
What does this mean? Isn't this treating your great-aunt like a servant?
However, upon seeing Wen Mengting's gaze, Xiao Hui immediately turned into a little lamb and obediently moved aside.
Feng Dawei and the others hurriedly ran away, they needed to get back quickly to detoxify!
The rest of the people also ran away. Those girls couldn't see through his cultivation level at all, and they couldn't beat him in a fight. Were they just going to stay and wait to die?
Only after the man surnamed Luo left did Chu Feng look at the door and say, "You've been here so long, aren't you going to come out?"
"You're quite good; you actually managed to find me." Before Wen Mengting and the others could understand why Chu Feng had let them go, a man dressed in a black robe and wearing a large black hat walked in.
The man concealed his head, hands, and feet deep within his hat and black robe, and a long black sword hung from his waist.
Chu Feng said calmly, "Why didn't you directly trigger the poison? Isn't it just what you wanted for such a large group of people to die here?"
The man in black laughed and said, "They are like caged beasts, ready to be killed at any time. But you are a good opponent. I intend to fight you. If you can defeat me, you will surely tell me who hired me to deal with the Sword Sect."
Chu Feng was moved and said, "You're an assassin? As far as I know, assassins don't betray their employers?"
Chu Feng could see through this person's cultivation level at a glance; he was at the same level as himself, the third level of the Yuan Dan stage.
The man in black said, "I prefer fair duels to underhanded tricks. If you hire me, I'm not obligated to complete the task. The commission is refundable."
Chu Feng laughed and said, "You're quite the character, actually abandoning your employer for the sake of an opponent? But how do you know I'm a good opponent?"
The man in black said, "I sense it."
Chu Feng clapped his hands and said, "Alright! I'll fight you."
Such strange people are rare, and it's a pleasure to fight against them.
Several of those who were poisoned earlier were at the Void God stage. This person was able to easily poison Void God stage cultivators, so his strength must be considerable. Chu Feng could use this person to test his own strength.
Spiritual practice is also about cultivating the mind; one should act in accordance with one's own desires!
