C653 Undercurrent Surge

"Everyone is working for Martial Alliance. While Martial Alliance is giving us protection, we also need to give an appropriate reward. I believe that everyone has the same thoughts as me."

"Although Jiang Feng is not someone from the Martial Alliance s, he has made an unparalleled contribution to the Zhonghai s."

"Disciples of the Zhonghai mostly practice our Huo Family Fist, and because of the incompleteness of the Boxing Method, practicing Huo Family Fist will cause great harm to their bodies. However, after Jiang Feng's improvement, not only is it not a threat to us, it will even increase its power."

"Just from this point alone, Jiang Feng is the benefactor of Zhonghai, so protecting Jiang Feng is something everyone in our Martial Alliance should do."

In order to further dispel everyone's suspicions towards Jiang Feng, Huo Zhiloong told them about Jiang Feng's modification of the Boxing Method.

This made some people, who didn't trust Jiang Feng very much just now, start to have new opinions.

"Alliance master, there's no need for that. Previously, we had an opinion of Jiang Feng because we were narrow-minded. But don't worry, since Jiang Feng is a benefactor of Martial Alliance, we will naturally protect him with all our might. No one who can sit here is an ungrateful person."

Huo Zhiloong nodded in satisfaction.

"That's what you guys think, so I'm relieved."

"In the following days, we must pay more attention to the situation over at Jinling. We must not let our guard down."

For some unknown reason, Huo Zhiloong had a sense of crisis. Hee Tianba was not to be underestimated, as he would definitely not let this matter rest after he had suffered such a great humiliation at Zhonghai today.

Huo Zhiloong was about to proceed with the next step when a message popped up on his cell phone.

After reading the contents of the message, his face darkened and he frowned, not saying anything for a long time.

"Chief, what happened? Did Jinling make a move?"

"It shouldn't be too fast, Hee Tianba has only been crippled for a few hours, even if Jinling received the news, they shouldn't be able to react so quickly."

"Unless they've already planned for it and are waiting for Hee Tianba's orders."

Everyone was talking with faces full of worry.

Huo Zhiloong shook his head.

"Send down the notice, everyone in the Martial Alliance, be more honest with you in the near future. If there's no need, no one is to get into trouble."

Seeing how serious Huo Zhiloong was, the hall masters of the four halls were puzzled.

"Chief, what happened?"

As Huo Zhiloong's fourth brother as well as the head of Profound Martial Hall, Huo Sanxuan was the most suitable person to ask questions at this time.

"Hee Tianba was killed."

This news exploded in everyone's mind like a bomb.

Hee Tianba was the alliance master of the Martial Alliance of Jinling. Even if he was crippled, there were still a lot of disciples by his side, so how could he be killed?

"Chief, is this news reliable?"

Huo Zhiloong nodded.

"Daring to kill Hee Tianba, it looks like his background is not small!"

Huo Zhiloong muttered to himself.

A layer of haze was shrouding the heads of everyone in the room. It seemed that something big was going to happen to Zhonghai recently.

The next day, Jiang Feng received a message from Huo Zhiloong about Hee Tianba's death.

When Jiang Feng arrived at the funeral home, Huo Sanxuan and Zhao Xiongyu were already waiting for him.

"Xiong Yu, are your injuries alright?"

Seeing Zhao Xiongyu, Jiang Feng did not feel surprised. As a Zhonghai Guard, and the one who had died was Jin'ling Martial Alliance Alliance Head Hee Tianba, it was normal for him to come here.

"I'm fine. It's just some flesh wounds. I didn't hurt my bones."

The two of them exchanged pleasantries.

"Do you have any clues as to how Hee Tianba died?"

After all, he had met the day before and was told the next day that he was dead, but there was something fishy about it. Maybe someone had deliberately set him up.

Zhao Xiongyu held the results.

"Hee Tianba's throat was instantly cut, and when we checked the scene, there were no signs of a fight. It must have been done before Hee Tianba could react, probably by someone he's very familiar with or close to when he wasn't paying attention."

"However, based on the shape of the wound, we still can't determine what weapon was used."

Jiang Feng looked at Huo Sanxuan.

"Hee Tianba should have a grudge against them, could they have done it?"

Huo Sanxuan shook his head.

"Although Hee Tianba had a lot of enemies, they all had evidence of his absence that day, so they were all excluded. And now, you are the most suspicious person."

"Yeah, everyone now thinks Hee Tianba's death has something to do with you."

"Furthermore, the people from the Jin'ling Martial Alliance are all clamoring to make you pay with your life, so you should walk a little during this period of time to avoid unnecessary troubles."

Also, Hee Tianba has an adopted daughter, called Xue Meihua. Be careful of this person, she was also a member of Martial Alliance before, so Hee Tianba is not unkind to her, and she might come looking for you for revenge. Furthermore, Xue Meihua is not a simple woman, she's the strongest female warrior in Jinling.

"Xue Meihua could be said to have obtained Hee Tianba's true inheritance. Her skills are quite outstanding, so it's best for you to be a bit more careful."

Zhao Xiongyu warned.

"Jiang Feng, I will investigate the results of this investigation as soon as possible. I hope that the murderer can be apprehended as soon as possible."

"Do you think that Hee Tianba's death was deliberately caused by someone?" I want to hear what you think. "

Zhao Xiongyu wanted to find some clues through Jiang Feng. He didn't know much about the martial arts world, but Zhao Xiongyu knew Jiang Feng was skilled. He might be able to find a breakthrough in the martial world.

Jiang Feng pondered for a while.

"I don't think that the possibility of revenge killing is high. If it really is revenge killing, then it shouldn't be a one shot kill, at least we should torture Hee Tianba for a while, but you said that there were no traces of fighting at the scene. That is to say, the killer and Hee Tianba are not enemies, and they probably want to use Hee Tianba's death to create chaos."

"And the murderer must have known about my relationship with Hee Tianba, and also knew about my relationship with Huo Zhiloong, so he took advantage of this to frame me."

"Besides, I don't think that's the killer's real purpose."

"This is not the real motive of the murderer. What is he trying to do?"

Huo Sanxuan asked in confusion.

"The murderer only wanted to use the relationship between Huo Zhiloong and me to confuse the people from the Jin'ling Martial Alliance, and also let the Zhonghai be mixed with the Martial Alliance of Jin'ling's. That way, he could fish in troubled waters and disrupt both sides."

"If I'm not wrong, the culprit actually wants to weaken both Jin'ling and Zhonghai at the same time, and then wash the cards while they're in a mess, to reap the rewards."1
