Chapter 142 - Demon Boy Group (1 more! Asking for monthly votes!)

Fang Yu was contemplating what Cultivation Technique he should learn at the Martial Hall.Just as he stepped out, he hadn’t gone far

when he saw that not far ahead, a group of people had gathered.

They were all Li Baizhen’s subordinates.

He glanced over.

Well, well.

The internal spy F4, along with Yue Guang, were all there.

Oh, can’t call them the F4 anymore, now it should be the F3 boy band.

It makes sense for a girl named Che Linfang to be in a boy band.

Fang Yu had intended to pretend he didn’t see them and just leave.

But then someone in the crowd suddenly waved at him as if calling him over.

He checked the blood bar of that person.

Eh!

Isn’t this the big elite?

He was the one who, while pointing fingers at Li Baizhen and Shi Chengxin, looked eager to take their place.

Since someone took the initiative to greet him and call him over, it would seem unnatural to ignore them.

Fang Yu suddenly understood why the F3 boy band and Yue Guang were gathered in this little circle.

Turns out it was Kun Shanhai who had rallied everyone.

Otherwise, according to the demons’ habits, why would they gather without a special need?

Fang Yu joined the crowd smoothly and found that everyone was actually listening to Kun Shanhai’s speech.

Some people had the same confused look as Fang Yu.

"...Don’t you find it strange?"

"If Shi Chengxin was a demon, why would the boss arrange for him to raid the Prison?"

"It doesn’t make sense!"

Someone raised their hand.

"The boss said that after the night of the Prison raid, he realized that there was something wrong with Shi Chengxin."

Kun Shanhai immediately shot a glaring look, trying to control the situation as if to say ’who allowed you to speak.’

The person was immediately silenced.

It seemed that Kun Shanhai had a not-so-low status in Li Baizhen’s team.

"Even so! What about the outcome? Did the demon escape from prison or not?"

"Even with a good reason, is this something that a hundred-household official should do?"

"And yet he hasn’t dispatched anyone to trace the whereabouts of the escaped demon..."

Another person raised their hand.

"Brother Hai, that’s wrong. The boss did issue us a search mission..."

Kun Shanhai’s stare intensified.

"Am I talking or are you? If you have an opinion, you come forward and say it!"

The man quickly shut his mouth.

Kun Shanhai seemed satisfied.

But after being interrupted twice, he was somewhat at a loss for words and couldn’t connect his thoughts.

So, he spoke with a stern face.

"Anyhow, I feel that there’s something off about the boss."

"I’ll secretly investigate a bit; all you need to know is that I’m doing this."

"Let me share my view, I’m seriously suspecting that both the boss and Shi Chengxin are demons!"

"As for why the boss would kill Shi Chengxin? That was a show for us, to elevate his status whilst sacrificing one demon!"

"Also, it misleads us into believing that there is no longer a demon spy among us, allowing him to stay undercover more easily."

"The reason is, the boss disappeared for two days and nights, and the first news we got upon his return was that he let the Prison demons escape."

"Just this point alone, I must investigate whether the boss has been possessed by a demon or not!"

"I’ve said my piece, do you guys have any thoughts?"

The crowd looked at each other, shaking their heads.

To tell the truth, they just felt like Kun Shanhai was raving mad.

They would certainly report this to the boss later. It was just that there was no need to confront Kun Shanhai right now.

"Hmm... You all be more vigilant, don’t give the demons any opportunity."

"Alright, disperse, everyone, disperse."

The crowd gave each other looks and dispersed.

But Kun Shanhai then spoke to someone.

"By the way, Hu Shusheng, stay back, I need to have a word with you."

"Me?"

Hu Shusheng was on the verge of tears.

Like being caught by a lunatic, he looked around pleadingly for help.

But no one paid him any attention.

Those who were supposed to leave were leaving; they didn’t want to be kept back by Kun Shanhai for military training.

"What’s with that expression!"

Kun Shanhai seemed a bit unhappy with Hu Shusheng’s reaction.

"I was just listening to..."

He got to this point, then suddenly realized he shouldn’t continue, abruptly fell silent, and glared angrily at those around.

"What are you all still doing here? Go, get out of here!"

With a sweeping gesture to shoo them away, the crowd finally dispersed entirely, leaving Hu Shusheng alone to talk with Kun Shanhai.

Fang Yu, who was far away, couldn’t hear what they were talking about.

After turning a corner, he suddenly paused.

Yue Guang was waiting for him at the corner.

Waving at him, Yue Guang walked down a small path.

Fang Yu felt something stir within him and quickly followed.

When Yue Guang stopped, Fang Yu realized he had reached a secluded corner, hidden by some trees.

Inside, stood two members of the F3 boy band.

Wowie!

All the demons gathered!

Fang Yu became interested; was there some action going to happen?

Then Fang Yu heard Che Linfang speak up.

"What’s Hu Shusheng doing! Has he gone mad? Since Shi Chengxin is already dead, why stir up suspicion."

Tang Shan shook his head slightly.

"He screwed up, overplayed his hand and fooled Kun Shanhai into the trap."

Yue Guang spoke indifferently.

"It’s not quite a screw-up. Li Baizhen’s team had unstable elements to begin with. It’s just that today’s events, coupled with Hu Shusheng’s speech, brought them to the surface."

The two demons looked at Yue Guang.

"What do we do now? With Kun Shanhai making such a scene, Hu Shusheng is self-immolating. Shall we discard him like we did Shi Chengxin?"

As soon as these words came out, Yue Guang immediately frowned.

Then, a slight cold smile appeared.

He had been a bit puzzled initially.

Right after the death of Shi Chengxin,

at such a sensitive time, why were these two demons calling him for a chat?

Now Yue Guang understood.

They were coming to assign blame.

Dissatisfaction was brewing in their hearts.

He had thought there was some serious matter, even having Diao Deyi come over to listen in.

And it turned out to be such a trivial issue.
