231: Trust and Distrust

Zhang Wu was sent flying by Zhang Chongfei's punch, his body slamming heavily onto the ground.

Facing such a scene, Zhang Wu felt utterly helpless; if he had any other way, he certainly wouldn't be in this state.

However, Li Changfeng's appearance left Zhang Wu at a total loss, unsure of what to do.

“Zhang Wu, speak up. What exactly are you trying to do?!” Zhang Chongfei's face was dark, a cold light erupting in his eyes as he glared fixedly at Zhang Wu.

Earlier, after hearing Li Changfeng's words, Zhang Chongfei had come to an understanding.

From the very beginning, Zhang Wu had chosen betrayal. Using this method, he first lured Li Changfeng here, and then, to gain trust, acted so close to Zhang Chongfei.

“Zhang Wu, I trusted you so much. I never thought you'd be such a piece of filth, worse than a pig or a dog!” With a dark expression, Zhang Chongfei raised his hand and pointed at the nearby Zhang Wu.

“Commander, you have to believe me! I have never betrayed Mulan Manor, and I certainly haven't betrayed you!” Zhang Wu wore a look of intense nervousness.

In truth, it was only at this moment that Zhang Wu understood.

This was all Li Changfeng's trap. When Li Changfeng left earlier, he probably hadn't gone to the Gao Family's main hall at all, but had instead hidden himself away quietly.

In the end, Li Changfeng had followed Zhang Wu here. Strictly speaking, he really had brought this guy here himself.

Zhang Wu's mind was as clear as a mirror; he had been played.

“You... you're really ruthless!” Zhang Wu turned back, a cold light erupting from his bright eyes.

Zhang Wu's heart was filled with hatred for Li Changfeng, and he clenched his fists tightly.

If Zhang Wu had the strength right now, he would certainly kill Li Changfeng, but his strength simply didn't allow for it.

“Do you think I'll believe you? You liar!” Zhang Chongfei clenched his fists. He had originally trusted this kid deeply.

But Li Changfeng's appearance had shattered all of Zhang Chongfei's illusions.

Zhang Chongfei was now certain of one thing: this Zhang Wu was a spy, and his appearance was solely to find Zhang Chongfei's hiding place.

Moreover, Zhang Chongfei intended to use this opportunity to properly deal with this traitor, Zhang Wu.

“Men, even if we die, we must kill Zhang Wu! He is a traitor to Mulan Manor!” Zhang Chongfei said with a dark face.

“Did you all hear me?”

“Everyone, attack!”

Zhang Chongfei let out a fierce roar, attempting to resolve this traitorous matter in this way.

However, the corner of Li Changfeng's mouth curled up. He took a sharp breath, his face darkening.

Snap.

Li Changfeng lightly snapped his fingers.

Boom! A powerful surge of Qi erupted from Li Changfeng's body as he clenched his fists tight.

“Agh!” The Guards all let out miserable cries as they collapsed to the ground one after another.

The Guards' eyes bulged, blood trickling from the corners of their mouths. Their faces were pale, and they had even stopped breathing, yet they hadn't actually sustained fatal injuries.

Seeing this, Zhang Wu's expression changed, and he couldn't help but retreat several steps.

How on earth did this guy do that?

He didn't even see him make a move just now?

Could it be that this guy has some kind of special ability!

“What! How can everyone...!” Watching this, Zhang Chongfei's pupils constricted violently. “Who are you! How did you do this!”

In just an instant, these Guards had lost their breath.

Zhang Chongfei had only seen Li Changfeng snap his fingers; he hadn't even clearly seen how he attacked.

This was indeed too strange. Fear was instantly stirred in Zhang Chongfei's heart; he felt a lingering dread and was extremely worried.

If this guy really was an enemy of Mulan Manor, then Mulan Manor's future actions would be far too difficult. After all, with such a powerful individual present, it would be hard for Mulan Manor's plans to proceed.

“Zhang Chongfei, I'm here for your life. Will you take it yourself, or shall I do it?” Li Changfeng didn't waste words; he had already found Zhang Chongfei.

This was for the best.

Li Changfeng held his Sword, a cold light erupting in his eyes.

At that moment, Li Changfeng stepped forward. He bypassed Zhang Wu directly, not even giving him a glance, and came straight before Zhang Chongfei.

This Zhang Chongfei and Zhang Wu had been like brothers just moments ago, yet in the blink of an eye, the two had become enemies.

The change was truly fast enough, though Li Changfeng could understand it.

After all, this Zhang Chongfei had been betrayed; otherwise, things wouldn't be like this.

“Commander, you have to believe me! I was also tricked. I really didn't betray Mulan Manor!” Zhang Wu continued to explain.

But under these circumstances, Zhang Chongfei didn't believe him at all.

Zhang Wu's face was dark as he clenched his fists, a cold light erupting in his eyes. “You... it's all because of you!”

At this time, Zhang Wu also wanted to use this method to regain Zhang Chongfei's trust.

“Oh? What, are you going to make a move?” Li Changfeng's mouth curled into a smirk, his face dark with a sinister look.

“I'll kill you!” Zhang Wu suddenly roared and immediately stood up. Clenching his fists, he charged directly at Li Changfeng.

Zhang Wu being suspected by the people of Mulan Manor was all Li Changfeng's doing.

Now, Zhang Wu had already regarded Li Changfeng as his enemy, and he was determined to give this Li Changfeng a proper lesson.

However, Zhang Wu had no confidence in his heart. After all, he had just witnessed Li Changfeng's strength; the chances of surviving an encounter with such an enemy were surely very slim.

“You're still going to fight me?” Li Changfeng let out a long sigh. “You're really something.”

Li Changfeng's mouth curled into a look of disdain, and then he raised his hand and gave his sleeve a wide sweep.

Boom!

Following a loud crash.

Zhang Wu was sent flying directly by Li Changfeng, slamming heavily onto the ground.

Where Zhang Wu landed, the ground showed cracks like a spider web, and blood sprayed from his mouth.

Zhang Wu looked to be in significant pain; his brow was tightly furrowed, and his face was very pale.

“If you want to kill me, you're a few hundred years too early.” Li Changfeng sneered, a cold light erupting in his eyes.

And at that moment.

Li Changfeng stepped forward and rushed toward Zhang Chongfei.

In truth, Li Changfeng only had one target, and that was Zhang Chongfei.

As for this Zhang Wu, he posed no threat at all, and Li Changfeng didn't take him to heart. His mouth curled as he gazed at the nearby Zhang Chongfei.

“Zhang Wu!” Seeing Zhang Wu suffer such a heavy injury, Zhang Chongfei's pupils constricted violently, and his heart trembled.

Zhang Chongfei was extremely anxious; he was now even unwilling to believe that Zhang Wu was the one at fault.

This was all Li Changfeng's doing!
