Chapter 321: Blade Gang Shatters Heavy Armor! Chasing Soul Arrow!_1Su Changkong’s mouth twitched slightly. Previously, in the rebel camp, he had been quite close to the leader, Wei Chiao, and so Chai Zheng, who was watching Wei Chiao, noticed Su Changkong as well. Even though Su Changkong later put on a mask, he had already been marked by Chai Zheng.
Afterwards, Su Changkong broke out of the encirclement, displaying astonishing agility and Qinggong, which were witnessed by Chai Zheng, who had been paying attention. Chai Zheng had since then been on his trail, unwilling to let go of Su Changkong, who he knew had a connection with Wei Chiao.
Now facing the pressure brought by Hong Zhenxiang, Chai Zheng, in a state of utter confusion, directly pointed out Su Changkong’s identity, which was tantamount to exposing his own acquaintance with him!
“Su Tailai? A blacksmith? From the Casting Department?”
Hong Zhenxiang was utterly confused. As the commander of the Dafeng Iron Cavalry, he naturally didn’t focus on the logistics within the army and had never heard of Su Tailai, nor did he know there was such a person in the Casting Department.
But Hong Zhenxiang could tell that Chai Zheng truly knew this masked man who had broken out from the rebels!
“What’s going on? Do you really know him?” Hong Zhenxiang’s gaze locked onto Chai Zheng. Logically, as the Deputy Commander of the Forest Frag Camp, Chai Zheng shouldn’t know anyone from the rebels.
At this moment, Chai Zheng realized that he had been spotted by Hong Zhenxiang, who indeed knew his affairs. Denying it further was meaningless. It would be better to create as much chaos as possible to divert Hong Zhenxiang’s attention and seize the chance to escape.
Immediately, Chai Zheng sneered, “This man is called Su Tailai, who joined the Dafeng Iron Cavalry about half a year ago, working in the Casting Department. But to have such martial arts? Why would he stoop to being a blacksmith unless…”
At this point, a sudden idea flashed through Chai Zheng’s mind, and he exclaimed, “Half a year ago, the Mu Family came to pursue the murderer who killed Mu Jin, claiming he was within our camp. Could it be this guy?”Su Changkong silently sighed to himself, realizing he was recognized after having displayed his martial arts.
“Yes! It must have been you who did it. You possess martial arts and deliberately concealed it, joining the Dafeng Iron Cavalry just after the death of Mu Jin and going to work in the logistics. Who else could it be but you?”
Chai Zheng’s eyes grew intense, asserting with certainty, and everything fit together!
No wonder Su Changkong, a mere blacksmith, possessed such martial arts skills. If he was the murderer who killed Mu Jin and infiltrated the army, it all made perfect sense!
“Hmm?”
Hong Zhenxiang was now genuinely shocked.
Back then, after the death of Mu Jin, his father and grandfather had gone to the State Governor Mansion, sensing through the bloodline mark that the murderer was within the army and asked Pei Yang to help identify the murderer.
But Pei Yang, prejudiced, thought that only a Deputy Commander or even a Commander in the Dafeng Iron Cavalry could have killed Mu Jin. Fearing embarrassment and diminishing his authority within the ranks, he flatly denied it, refusing to cooperate, intending to deal with it internally.
The Mu father and son, wary of taking actions themselves, could only leave.
Later, Pei Yang investigated those in the army who had both the time and the skill to kill Mu Jin but found nothing. Though he suspected a new recruit might be the murderer and had people watch in secret, no suspects were found. ṘÄꞐöꞖËṤ
Pei Yang thought it might be one of his generals who committed the act, but with no one confessing and lacking concrete evidence, the matter was eventually dropped. Only a few were aware of this incident, as it wasn’t made public.
However, Chai Zheng now revealed that the masked man who had broken out from the rebels was actually named Su Tailai, a blacksmith who had joined the Casting Department a few days after Mu Jin’s death. Although he still didn’t understand why Su Tailai was here, the certainty of Chai Zheng’s assertion didn’t seem like a lie!
Su Changkong was somewhat at a loss for words, as Chai Zheng was blatantly dragging him down with him!
“Both of you… none of you are leaving today!”
Hong Zhenxiang said sternly. Originally, he had come to capture Chai Zheng, but then he stumbled upon an unexpected lead – this masked man was likely the murderer who killed Mu Jin.
Although there were still many unclear details, he knew that capturing these two men would clarify everything!
“Hong Zhenxiang… I am no match for him!”
Chai Zheng tensed all over, understanding the terror of Hong Zhenxiang. The gap between them was like a chasm; there was no chance of victory facing him.
But by dragging Su Changkong into this, Hong Zhenxiang would surely not allow Su Changkong to leave either, which meant there was still a chance to escape!
“Hong Zhenxiang, am I to confront him so soon? Can my Blade Gang pose a threat to him?”
Su Changkong was equally solemn in thought. Hong Zhenxiang was almost the strongest martial artist he had ever encountered, a legendary figure of Feng State City, not an easy adversary by any means!
“Whoosh!”
Just as the situation turned complicated and the standoff intensified, suddenly a faint whizzing sound tore through the air. The sound was delayed; what arrived first was an arrow, spiraling through the air with a helical arrowhead!
It had been shot from over two li away, moving several times faster than the speed of sound, so rapid that it was beyond a normal person’s reaction limit. Its target was the back of Hong Zhenxiang.
With a sharp glint in his eye and keen perception, Hong Zhenxiang didn’t need to see the arrow to feel the bone-chilling threat. He moved his robust body laterally by about ten feet, dodging the incoming arrow ahead of time.
But what was astonishing was that the arrow, as if it had eyes, drew an arc in the air, turning sharply and still aiming for Hong Zhenxiang, who had just dodged!
