The rock shattered, and the man grabbed a handful of the broken pieces.
“You —”
Feng Xun wanted to stop him, but it was too late.
“He’s dead…” He shook his head with a bitter smile on his face.
Feng Wu nodded. “He was determined to die. He only pretended to smash his head on the rock, when he was actually planning to choke himself.”
She had a solemn look on her face.
Even death couldn’t deter the Mars team leader. That was how tough he was.
“The Dongsang Kingdom will be a very difficult enemy if they’re all like this.” Feng Wu shook her head.
Feng Xun frowned. “Is it true, the thing he said about Hua Jinxiu?”
Feng Wu asked, “Who’s Hua Jinxiu?”
Feng Xun said, “Hua Jinxiu is a member of the Hua clan. They live a reclusive life in Flower Valley and seldom come out into the world. Unflower was the most famous member of the clan. She killed people in broad daylight on the street in the imperial capital in front of His Majesty. Well, he was still the crown prince back then.
“Ever since then, the clan grew even quieter.” Feng Xun frowned. “But this ninja has just gotten that clan involved.
“Hua Jinxiu is the current leader of the clan. It’s said that she’s as talented as Unflower, if not better. Why would she get involved with the Dongsang Kingdom? I don’t believe it.” Feng Xun shook his head.
Feng Wu didn’t reply. Instead, she turned to Xuan Yi and asked, “What information did you get from the imperial capital?”
Xuan Yi shook his head. “We were too late. Mo Haolin’s wife has disappeared, and their house was torched. It was a dead end.”
Feng Xun asked anxiously, “What should we do now?”
Feng Wu checked her log.
Their plan had lured out over half of the people on the revival list.
44 were dead, and there were 33 left.
That was to say, there were three teams left.
They were the Mercury, Jupiter, and Venus teams.
“We don’t even know how many people there are on that list, nor do we know where they are or how many of them have been killed,” Feng Xun said in resignation. “We caught a few of them and interrogated them, but they all managed to kill themselves before we could get anything out of them…”
He was full of despair.
Feng Wu was still studying the dead team leader.
She moved closer, crouched down and searched his body.
Feng Xun smiled wryly. “I checked already. People like him won’t carry things on them, in case they’re caught…”
Just then, Feng Wu picked up a jade pendant and showed it to Feng Xun.
Feng Xun said, “That’s just a common pendant. You can buy it anywhere for next to nothing. The quality is so poor I can’t even bring myself to touch it.”
But at that moment, Feng Wu crushed the pendant.
“It’s a storage pendant that has been modified. The space inside is only as big as a drawer,” Feng Wu told Feng Xun after she examined it carefully.
“A storage pendant? How’s that possible? If that’s the case, why… I see!” An idea suddenly struck Feng Xun, and he smacked his forehead. “I get it now!”
