Chapter 653 Ominous Star
"Even if only one of you got caught by the rope, the weight would have been enough to trigger and break the sedative pack tied in the tree beforehand, scattering the sedative and knocking you out."
ngyu hadn’t expected that the rope trap was actually combined with a sedative; she thought it was just a rope.
Probably because she triggered the trap with a tree that wasn’t heavy enough, the force was insufficient to burst the sedative pack.
If soone had been caught and hung up, it’s likely that they all would have inhaled the sedative. Although she was a Cultivator and not so easily knocked out, who could guarantee the effectiveness of that sedative?
Luckily, she discovered the rope ahead of ti and triggered all the rope traps with branches.
She really felt a bit scared now.
"That rope laid plainly on the ground, you might have spotted it, so we set up bamboo arrows in the bamboo forest behind it. We thought that even if you avoided the rope, you couldn’t escape the bamboo arrows.
We calculated that with such a dense array of bamboo arrows, we should be able to capture all of you. A slight cut would be enough to take you down. So, in fact, we didn’t need to confront you face to face at all."
"However, we didn’t expect you to dodge both of those obstacles."
"The rolling stones were just for show, to scare you a bit. We didn’t actually plan to roll stones down the hill to kill people. The real intent was to buy ti so I could set up the bridge trap here."
As ngyu listened to this, she understood that this Zhang Laoqi truly intended to operate from the shadows, not to rob openly.
Moreover, before Tian Xianhua pushed the stone to injure soone, their group indeed hadn’t been exposed—of course, that was what they believed. In truth, they had all been exposed to her Divine Sense long ago.
Although regrettable, information about the mastermind was not so easily obtained. Otherwise, Gu Dongxing and Cheng Jiuhe would not have been searching frantically for so long. So, she wasn’t too disappointed.
She estimated that the person on the phone was very likely Jiang Huaiyu.
"Since you’ve answered my questions honestly, you can die peacefully now," said ngyu as she plunged a knife into his heart.
Thus, the underworld figure "Seventh Brother," who beca notorious for drugs, gambling, and cri in her previous life, t his end at the hands of ngyu before he could rise in this lifeti.
Through the connection, Xiao Tao’s voice conveyed her congratulations: "Congratulations to the master for obtaining three thousand rit Points."
ngyu knew that this Zhang Laoqi was destined to beco a powerful figure in the region, but she didn’t expect him to kill so many people!
If she hadn’t eliminated him today, his survival would possibly lead to harming others endlessly. Each potential future victim would only count for five rit Points; three thousand rit, that’s 600 people!
He could potentially have hard 600 people; it seems that the reports from her previous life stating twenty-three lives were connected to him falls short of the truth.
She swiftly threw the body into her space, then tightened the loosened wooden bridge with stones and sprinkled sand on the greased wood. After that, she proceeded toward Red Stone Village.
Coming across Xiao Tao who erged to greet her, she quickly took her into her space, and then entered the village.
Upon entering the Xiao Family’s ho, she imdiately heard Tian Ruyi’s loud crying and scolding:
"It’s you who caused the death of your brother and Brother Hong! You won’t even admit it! You brought bad luck to my husband, and now my brother, your betrothed. Honor my husband, honor my brother, you are an Ominous Star, Ominous Star, Ominous Star!"
