Chapter 373: Victim of One’s Own Cleverness! (1/2)
“Bai Xiaofei, you think you are smart, but today is the day you lose!”
Chu Tianyi sneered after summoning his One Heaven Sword. When he said this, however, he was actually looking at Feng Wuhen and not Bai Xiaofei.
“Before I came here, I saw every record of your fights, including the battle between you and Sima Ye in the Illusionary Sandboard. Your second puppet gives you the ability to change your appearance! Say, your two puppets haven’t shown up until now, but they’ve actually been here all the time, haven’t they?”
Chu Tianyi’s words startled the audience, but the expressions of Bai Xiaofei’s group didn’t change at all as they quietly watched Chu Tianyi’s monologue.
“What’s more, I remember that your first puppet can’t seem to speak. A bit like this ‘boss’ at your side, huh?”
Chu Tianyi stared fixedly at Feng Wuhen while saying this. Too bad for him, he didn’t spot any changes on Feng Wuhen’s face.
“After all that talk, what are you trying to get at?” Feng Wuhen leisurely spoke and didn't seem to panic at all like Chu Tianyi had anticipated.
“He is not Bai Xiaofei, you are! This is why you dare to propose this method to duel with me! Because you want my first blow to fail!”
This statement astonished everyone.
So that’s how it is! But it really seems like Bai Xiaofei’s style, and Chu Tianyi’s analysis makes sense!
“Oh? Then according to your analysis, there’s also a high chance that my true body is Lu Lingyun. Why didn’t you guess it’s him instead?” said Feng Wuhen noncommittally while also throwing up a smokescreen.
“First, it’s you who took the Starnet Brilliance, which not only plays a role in guaranteeing the so-called fairness but also provides you protection, because you are afraid of being seen through by me and need a lifesaver! Second, I investigated the people around you. Feng Wuhen is a calm person. You may not have noticed that your style of speaking is totally different from his. Although you are deliberately mimicking his tone, it’s useless!”
Chu Tianyi obviously knew what he was saying. When he finished, all the onlookers already believed him and at the same time began to worry for Bai Xiaofei.
“So, you deliberately acted like a brash kid and pretended to be a pig to eat the tiger1?” asked Feng Wuhen indifferently, as his eyes flashed with a sharp light.
“Don’t say that. You may be a little famous, but you’re no tiger!” Chu Tianyi retorted with a sneer. This was actually his true thoughts.
“Damn, boss, you are really underestimated. And from the looks of it, I’ll have to take on this attack for you. You must give me a salary increase.”
Feng Wuhen turned to Bai Xiaofei with a bitter smile, and Bai Xiaofei’s response was still a silent smile.
“You need to consider this carefully. If it turns out different from what you think, you will have to take a strike from our perfectly unscratched boss.” Stretching his muscles, Feng Wuhen looked back at Chu Tianyi with a smile that caused the audience to be confused.
Is Chu Tianyi’s speculation true?!
“Don’t worry, no one can change what I’ve determined. Keep your meaningless reminder, I’m not going to change my mind,” declaring so, Chu Tianyi waved his sword and terrifying fluctuations infused with origin energy seeped out. Then, he leaped up, and the glowing sword in his hand stabbed down towards Feng Wuhen with unstoppable, piercing momentum.
As the sword speedily approached, Feng Wuhen’s expression finally twitched a little. This completely fortified Chu Tianyi’s determination. In fact, until just now, everything Chu Tianyi had done was to probe! Because he wasn’t sure if his guess was right, he left himself some leeway so that he could change the target at any time. But now, the slight change on Feng Wuhen’s face confirmed his final decision.
Chu Tianyi accelerated in midair and decisively charged at Feng Wuhen!
The next second, the Starnet Brilliance glowed, and Chu Tianyi’s sky-shattering sword was blocked. No matter how formidable, everything was but a floating cloud in front of the Starnet Brilliance’s invincible shield.
