Chapter 179: 2024-06-04 Chapter 35 Seeking One's Own Death
After hearing Xiao Feng's words, the expressions on everyone's faces couldn't help but become a little weird.
Could it be that Xiao Feng was lucky and just missed Mu Li and the others?
No one thought that Xiao Feng could kill Mu Li and the others in such a short time without alerting others.
Unless Xiao Feng is a strong fighter at the level of a fighting master, but that is obviously impossible.
Who doesn't know that the third young master of the Xiao family was still at the level of a one-star fighter more than a month ago?
If Xiao Feng had broken through to the Dou Shi level at the age of fifteen, the Yunlan Sect's top leaders would never allow Nalan Yanran to go to the Xiao family to cancel the engagement.
Therefore, the biggest possibility is that Xiao Feng was just lucky and just happened to miss Mu Li and the others, which allowed him to escape.
Under the complicated gazes of the crowd, Xiao Feng walked to the side of Little Medical Fairy as if nothing had happened, sat down, and then closed his eyes and began to practice.
"…"
Seeing Xiao Feng's carefree look, Xiao Yixian was speechless and didn't know how to complain.
Is this guy really stupid, or is he just pretending to be stupid?
Time passed slowly, and soon more than half an hour had passed.
Seeing that Mu Li and his companions had not returned yet, the people of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group finally became unable to sit still and began to have a bad feeling in their hearts.
The leading middle-aged mercenaries discussed it for a while, and finally sent out more than ten mercenaries to search the nearby woods.
Soon someone discovered the remains of Muli and his companions, as well as traces of being bitten by monsters.
Based on the traces left at the scene, everyone was shocked to find that there were almost no signs of fighting nearby.
In other words, the murderer must have been much stronger than Mu Li and the others, to prevent them from even having a chance to resist and to wipe them out completely.
In addition, the bodies of Muli and the others showed signs of being eaten by magical beasts, so the murderer who killed them was most likely some kind of second-level magical beast.
Knowing that there was a high possibility of a dangerous second-level monster in the nearby woods, the mercenaries did not dare to stay in the woods any longer and returned to the main force.
Except for Xiao Feng who was practicing with his eyes closed and looked calm, the others were very nervous after learning about this and stayed up all night in fear.
The next morning, as soon as it was light outside, everyone hurried back to Qingshan Town, not daring to stay there any longer.
After several hours of hard journey, Qingshan Town finally appeared in everyone's sight.
However, at this moment, hundreds of figures gathered at the gate of Qingshan Town, and the atmosphere seemed a little strange.
Looking at the return of the Wanyaozhai herb-picking team, a middle-aged man who looked 70% similar to Mu Li suddenly walked out of the crowd and shouted loudly: "Who is Xiao Feng? Get out here!"
This person is none other than Mu She, the leader of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group. His cultivation has reached the level of a two-star fighter, and he is also one of the three most powerful men in Qingshan Town.
"Captain, he is Xiao Feng!"
As soon as Mu She finished speaking, the members of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group who were traveling with Xiao Feng all pointed at him.
Mu She said with a frosty face: "So you are Xiao Feng. When my son and his friends were killed, you were the only one who was not at the scene. You must have killed my son!"
Since the main force moved relatively slowly, the Wolf Head Mercenary Group specially dispatched several mercenaries to rush back to Qingshan Town in advance and asked them to report to Mu She the news of the killing of Mu Li and others.
When Mu She first learned the news that Mu Li was killed by the monster, he seemed very sad, but he quickly regained his composure.
The dead cannot be resurrected!
Since Mu Li's death is a foregone conclusion, Mu She can only make a big fuss about his death and gain greater benefits for himself.
Regardless of whether Mu Li was killed by Xiao Feng or not, Mu She wanted to put the blame on him, so that he would have an excuse to attack Xiao Feng.
According to the information received by Mu She, the storage ring worn by Xiao Feng alone is worth at least hundreds of thousands of gold coins.
As long as Mu Li killed Xiao Feng and took the treasure from him, it wouldn't matter even if it led to the Xiao family's pursuit.
As the saying goes: Fortunes are sought in danger!
By then, Mu Li could simply abandon the industry in Qingshan Town, change his appearance and flee to other cities to start anew.
"Captain Mu, there must be a misunderstanding."
Seeing this, Little Medical Fairy couldn't help but speak up: "Although Xiao Feng was not at the scene at the time, he was only away for a short while, and with his strength as a three-star fighter, how could he be a match for Mu Li and the others?"
"The hatred of killing my son is irreconcilable!"
Mu She's eyes flashed coldly, and he stared at Xiao Yixian fiercely and said, "If anyone dares to stop me from taking revenge, I will fight him to the death! Do you think that I won't dare to touch you because you have Mr. Yao protecting you?"
"Captain Mu, calm down. This matter has nothing to do with our Wanyaozhai. Please do not hurt innocent people."
Just when Mu She was about to get rid of Xiao Yixiang together, a magnetic voice suddenly sounded, followed by a middle-aged man in gorgeous clothes, who came over with dozens of guards.
The middle-aged man in front of him, dressed in gorgeous clothes, is the owner of Wanyaozhai. His status in Qingshan Town is no less than that of Mu She.
"Since Mr. Yao has no intention of interfering in this matter, please take your people from Wanyaozhai and leave!"
Mu She was already somewhat afraid of Mr. Yao, so naturally he didn't want to conflict with him at this critical juncture.
"But Mr. Yao..."
"Little Medical Fairy!"
Before Xiao Yixian could finish her words, Mr. Yao interrupted her with a dissatisfied expression.
In Mr. Yao's eyes, Xiao Feng was just a stranger who had nothing to do with Wanyaozhai. He certainly was not willing to fight with the people from the Wolf Head Mercenary Group for Xiao Feng.
Xiao Yixian's expression changed slightly and said, "Xiao Feng, I'm sorry, I can't help you."
Although Xiao Yixian already regarded Xiao Feng as a friend and did not want to see him killed by Mu She, without Mr. Yao's help, Xiao Yixian had no way to stop Mu She.
The only thing Xiao Yixian can do now is to tell the Xiao family the truth about Xiao Feng's death after his death, and let the people of the Xiao family avenge him.
"It's okay. You've tried your best."
Xiao Feng first smiled and comforted Xiao Yixian, then turned to look at Mu She, and said helplessly: "You and your son are really the same. You have to provoke me for no reason, forcing me to kill you first to protect myself."
"What do you mean by that?"
Mu She's pupils suddenly shrank, and he couldn't help but said angrily: "You really killed my son!"
"good!"
Xiao Feng nodded slightly and said: "Actually, I don't want to kill them, but who let them seek their own death?"
"Impossible! With your strength, how could it be possible... cough cough cough..."
Mu She had just said half of his words when he suddenly felt a stinging pain in his eyes. Tears immediately flowed and he started coughing violently.
