301 I Have Been Tricked (1/2)
The mansion of Wen Family had been empty for quite some time. Few days ago, a special man had moved into this mansion. A man with a white shirt, pants and shoes was sitting on the sofa in the well decorated and luxurious common area. He looked incredibly arrogant as well. And, this man is none other than Long Aotian a.k.a Cocky Dragon!
He has learned all kind of martial arts ever since he was a kid. Because of his position as the leader of Hundred Beasts Faction, he became more and more arrogant. Eight men were standing at the left and right-hand side of Cocky Dragon. All of them were the elites of the Hundred Beasts Faction.
”Demonic Fox, how was your performance today?” Cocky Dragon narrowed his gaze and started to smile.
”Master! Please don’t get angry at me! I was useless! I couldn’t complete the task that you assigned for me! I’m willing to accept all form of punishment!” Demonic Fox’s body shook unconsciously. She knew that this is the look that he showed others whenever he wants to see blood flowing! Thus, the fear.
”What kind of punishment are you expecting? Death penalty?” Long asked coldly.
”Master, why that punishment? I know that I have failed, but I don’t think death should be my punishment…” Demonic Fox’s heart was jumping up and down. Sweat started to flow down her forehead.
A fatty stood up and shouted before Long said anything, ”Hmph! Failing a mission should not be punished with death! But, you betrayed our leader! So, you need to be punished by death!”
”Copper Clamp! What do you mean by that?”
Demonic Fox defended herself, ”I’m loyal to the leader! Since when did I betray him?”
”You told us just now that you had your blade placed at Chen’s throat! Why didn’t you kill him?” The fatty shouted angrily.
”I’ve said it to you just now! My blade couldn’t hurt this Chen Xiaobei at all! In the end, I was defeated by him!” Demonic Fox said.
”Bullshit!”
The Copper Clamp was very worked up. He said, ”Your blade is made of Darksteel! It can slice open metal! How is it possible for Chen Xiaobei to remain unhurt? Do you really think that we are some stupid fools?”
”I’m not lying! I’m telling the truth here!” Demonic Fox was very frustrated, because no one believed in her claims.
”Okay! Let’s say that you are telling the truth! Why didn’t he kill you after he defeated you?”
Copper Clamp gritted his teeth and continued to say, ”My brother; Ghost Frog was killed by him! I couldn’t even locate his body! How did you come back without any harm? Why?!”
This fatty was Ghost Frog’s brother. That is why he was so angry and biased against Demonic Fox’s circumstances.
”I…”
”I don’t know why! Chen Xiaobei decided not to kill me! Should I beg him to kill me instead?” Demonic Fox said frustratingly.
”Hmph! Stop your acting! Look at Blood Dove, Mad Eagle, Killer Bee, Mad Lion! They were all killed by Chen Xiaobei after messing around with him! Tell me! How did you come back here without any wounds on your body? That is more than enough to prove that you had betrayed our leader! You are working with Chen Xiaobei now!”
”This is not true! I can swear to God! I did not betray our leader!” Demonic Fox said nervously. She was actually intelligent and witty. But, she felt that her defense was going poorly at the moment.
”Shut up!”
Long shouted, turned around, and asked, ”Old Tortoise, what are your thoughts on this matter?”
This old man is the only person that Long would ask for a different opinion. It was pretty obvious that this guy is the think tank of this faction. He was highly valued by Long.
He is a hunchback old man with head full of white hair. Then, he walked forward, squinted his eyes and said, ”I don’t see any solid evidence in this matter. But, I will not eliminate the possibility that Demonic Fox has betrayed us. Also, this might be the strategy that Chen Xiaobei has used to divide us!”
”Divide us? I understand now!”
Demonic Fox had come to a realization.
