Chapter 113: The Black Pot

  ♂?,,

  Qian Xue, Luo Jie, Cao Feng, Xu Yu Dou, and Zhu Ji Feng, these five people are the leaders of the Five Pirate Families.

  The grudges of this generation all originated from the open and secret struggles among these five people, so Zhu Jifeng proposed that three of them were likely to be the murderer who framed Xu Yudu, which was also very reasonable.

  Qian Xue on the other side of the secret room, upon hearing Zhu Jifeng mention him, didn't show much reaction, instead he seemed rather interested, watching the two of them.

  "Hmm? So you're saying that Cao Feng is the one who's been secretly plotting against me?" Xu Yu Dou looked at Zhu Ji Feng, a cold smile spreading across his face as he spoke.

  "This is what you said yourself! I didn't mention anyone's name." Zhu Jifeng looked at Xu Yudou with a cold smile, suddenly feeling a sense of mystery, and narrowed his eyes to speak.

  "Hmph! Qian Xue invited us to work together, and in this period of time, he shouldn't be looking for trouble with me. And Roger just happened to have destroyed Zhou Xiaoyu ten days ago, the news has been spreading like wildfire, so it's not impossible that... The meaning behind his words is already quite clear." Xu Yu said coldly.

  "Zhu Jifeng is too much, isn't he? He actually spoke ill of me behind my back and splashed dirty water on me with just a few simple words?" Just then, a voice came from outside the stone gate, followed by a young man wearing a red tunic walking in.

  This man was Cao Feng in the mouths of two people. He walked into the secret room and kept his eyes on Zhu Jifeng, with a sinister smile on his face.

  "Does Xu Yudou really believe Zhu Jifeng's words?" Cao Feng restrained the smile on his face and looked at Xu Yudou seriously.

  "Hmph! I don't believe anyone's words, any of you could be involved. I'll investigate this myself." Xu Yu said coldly once again.

  "Haha! Even if it's investigated, what can be done about it? Can anything be done to that person? At most, it's just an extra entry on the account." Cao Feng, dressed in a red robe, raised an eyebrow and glanced at Zhu Jifeng, then revealed a faint, mysterious smile.

  "What's going on? Why are the two of you looking at me with such an expression?" Zhu Jifeng looked at Cao Feng's inexplicable smile, and remembering Xu Yu's cold smile from before, he suddenly felt a sense of unease, and immediately spoke up.

  "Because of suspicion is the greatest! I suppose you're also clear about it, that's why you want to drag me down with you." Cao Feng said to Zhu Jifeng.

  "Not bad! Ten days ago, Zhu Jifeng made the biggest move in Pirate Town." At this time, Xu Yudou's face turned ugly as he spoke.

  "What's going on with Luo Qing?" Zhu Jifeng's face suddenly sank upon hearing this, but he didn't show any signs of anger because he had already anticipated this outcome. Ten days ago, Zhu Binwen had indeed asked him for help in retrieving a token, so his actions were quite big back then.

  Cao Feng smiled silently, gazing at Zhu Jifeng. Taking advantage of the others' distraction, he even gave Zhu Jifeng a sly wink, conveying a message: It was me who did it! Hehe! However, this blame would have to be shouldered.

  Seeing Cao Feng wink at him, Zhu Jifeng knew that Cao Feng was responsible for the matter.

  Although Zhu Jifeng was not afraid of Xu Yudou, it was as if Cao Feng had told him that he was the one who did it, because Cao Feng was also not afraid of him. What made Zhu Jifeng feel humiliated was that he took the blame for Cao Feng.

  Zhu Jifeng took a deep breath, glanced at the two of them, and then spoke up, "I've taken the blame! But I'm not the most wronged one. The most wronged one is that someone was framed by others, but they don't even know who the real culprit is."

  After saying this sentence, Zhu Jifeng did not show any more words, directly sat down cross-legged and entered a state of closed eyes to nourish his spirit.

  Xu Yu looked at Zhu Jifeng's performance and thoughtfully glanced at Cao Feng, then also entered a state of closed eyes and meditation.

  Although Zhu Jifeng is the most suspicious, he will not ignore others because of this. Just as Zhu Jifeng said, what is most humiliating for Xu Yudou is that he does not know who did which thing, so what he wants to do most is to find out who the mastermind behind the scenes is.

  As he watched the two of them calm down, Cao Feng felt a slight sense of disappointment. However, he also knew that even if Xu Yu was convinced that Zhu Jifeng was responsible for the matter, he wouldn't take direct action because their strengths were almost evenly matched. If they took direct action, there would definitely be no outcome.

  Therefore, playing tricks and plotting is their main way of competing, just like what Cao Feng did in this matter.

  Finally, the stone chamber fell silent once again, with almost no one speaking anymore.

  A moment later, another person walked in from the stone gate of the secret room. This person was Roger.

  Roger was kicked by Wei Ziming and fell from a thousand-meter-high cliff, almost turning to ashes, leaving only a dying breath. However, Wei Ziming calculated the position and knew that someone would rescue Roger who had fallen off the cliff.

  Under the aid of the precious Dan medicine, Roger basically recovered after ten days, but at this moment, Roger's spirit seemed to be extremely decadent.

  The reason is simple, with his cultivation, he was actually seriously injured from falling off a cliff, just like an ordinary person who slipped on a banana peel and ended up in the hospital, it's not something to be proud of, he felt extremely humiliated.

  Moreover, another more important reason is that before he woke up, Luo Qing and Wei Ziming had already set him up with a scapegoat, and under the shadow of Old Man Luo, he couldn't speak out, he couldn't clear his name.

  Roger, who was severely injured physically and mentally traumatized, knew he had no chance of revenge under the shadow of Old Man Luo, so he could only hold back his emotions. As a result, the mental blow he suffered was slightly heavier, which is why he appeared so depressed.

  Roger, who looked extremely dispirited, walked into the secret room and glanced at everyone. He found that all were present, so he listlessly opened his mouth to say "Everyone is here, Money Xue can start now".

  As for Roger's decadent behavior, the others didn't think much of it, and they all thought that after Roger killed Zhou Xiaoyu, Old Man Luo was forced by Yunluo Country to give Roger some unknown punishment.

  With Luo Lao Yezi around, although Luo Jie killed Zhou Xiaoyu, he wouldn't be in danger of losing his life. However, he still had to report to the State Preceptor of Yunluo Country, which is why Luo Jie looked extremely downhearted at this moment.

  Unlike others, Qian Xue and 'Ge' were harboring a certain unknown secret. So when they saw the extremely decadent Roger, the two of them imperceptibly furrowed their brows, with a hint of worry between their eyebrows. Of course, he wasn't worried about Roger, but rather whether Roger's state could satisfy the requirements of the blood sacrifice.
