314: Chapter 94 Bewitching
"What do you mean?" Hearing Kang Min's words, Qiao Feng frowned and asked.
Kang Min smiled and said, "Drink this cup, and I will tell you slowly."
Qiao Feng took the wine, drank it, and then said, "Speak."
Kang Min said, "I did not participate in the matter at Yanmen Pass back then; I can only be considered indirectly informed, and the situation I understand is certainly not as much as those participants. You coming to me, presumably, you have asked all the participants like Monk Zhiguang and Zhao Qian Sun, but still have not obtained a result."
"This actually already explains one problem."
"What problem?" Qiao Feng asked.
Kang Min did not answer; she poured a cup of wine and brought it to Qiao Feng's lips.
Qiao Feng knew that if he did not drink, she certainly would not continue, and the wine was not problematic, and it was the time when the answer was about to be revealed, so he took it and drank.
Kang Min then smiled and continued, "The problem is that the identity of that Leading Big Brother is quite extraordinary."
"That is nonsense!" Qiao Feng could not help but say.
He certainly knew that the identity of that Leading Big Brother was extraordinary; otherwise, how would Tan Gong and Tan Po rather die than speak?
It was just that he could not confirm exactly who the other party was.
Seeing him speak like this, Kang Min was not angry; instead, she poured another cup of wine and handed it to his lips, while saying, "Don't be angry, listen to me continue."
Qiao Feng drank the wine and waited for the rest.
Kang Min did not keep him in suspense and continued, "You also understand those people like Monk Zhiguang and Zhao Qian Sun; they are all prestigious Elders in the Jianghu, and Wang Jiantong is the leader of the Beggars Sect, which is known as the 'Number One Sect under Heaven'. People who can make them willing to bow down and be placed under them must be even more virtuous and respected, and have an extraordinary status."
"In the Jianghu, in terms of status, even the Beggars Sect Leader has to lower his head; how many such identities can you name?"
Qiao Feng lowered his eyes and did not speak.
Kang Min was not in a hurry and continued to pour wine and hand it to his lips.
Qiao Feng did not take it this time but opened his mouth and drank it.
Because the question Kang Min gave made him feel restless.
According to the situation he knew, in the current Jianghu, there is only one person whose status is a line higher than the Beggars Sect Leader—the Shaolin Monastery Abbot!
But Shaolin Monastery is the leader of the Martial Forest, the head of the Righteous Path in the Jianghu!
This is a concept that Qiao Feng was instilled with since childhood, which can be said to be deep-rooted.
He had lived in the area around Shaolin Monastery with his foster parents since he was young.
His guide on the path of martial arts, his Master in the true sense—Great Master Xuanku, also came from Shaolin Monastery.
He could join the Beggars Sect, although introduced by Wang Jiantong, it also had an inseparable relationship with Shaolin Monastery.
These various entanglements made him subconsciously avoid Shaolin Monastery, unwilling and afraid to think about Shaolin Monastery.
But now the truth is about to come out, yet it is what he least wants to believe.
Qiao Feng suddenly felt irritable, as if there was a fire burning in his heart, his Qi and blood were boiling, and his whole body was hot.
Something is wrong!
That wine has a problem!
Realizing this point, Qiao Feng pushed Kang Min away and glared at her: "Did you put poison in the wine? No, you also drank that wine!"
Kang Min smiled and said, "Of course it is not poison. You came suddenly; where would I get poison? If it were really poison, it might not be able to deceive you, and I would not dare to drink it."
Then, she revealed the answer: "It is an aphrodisiac. Speaking of which, it was prepared by Bai Shijing. He is getting on in years, and he is not very good in that department. In order not to be despised by me, he specially got some medicine into the wine and kept it here for emergencies."
"Unexpectedly, this time it was used on you."
After finishing speaking, Kang Min threw herself into Qiao Feng's arms, rubbing against him gently, panting while softly acting spoiled: "Qiao-lang, you are in the prime of your youth and strength, and you have drunk that aphrodisiac; when you use me later, you must be gentle."
"I am afraid I cannot handle it."
Qiao Feng panted like an ox, his eyes were faintly red, but he gritted his teeth, pushed Kang Min away, then put on his hood, broke through the door, and ran away wildly.
Kang Min was pushed and fell to the ground; watching Qiao Feng's departing back, she almost bit her silver teeth to pieces.
"He can even endure this; he really is not a man!" she cursed fiercely, her expression a little disappointed, but more of it was relief.
Although nothing happened with Qiao Feng, at least her life was saved.
However, seeing Bai Shijing's corpse on the ground, Kang Min could not help but frown again.
Just at this time, a figure rushed over.
"Mrs. Ma, what happened?"
Kang Min saw who it was; she first felt resentment in her heart, then joy, but on the surface, she pretended to be a fearful, helpless, and pitiful appearance, and said, "Leader, just now the traitor Qiao Feng came. In order to investigate the matter of that year, he came in the middle of the night to force questions on me."
"Elder Bai noticed the movement and came to check, and was killed by him on the spot."
The person who came was Quan Guanqing.
Behind him, some other Elders of the Beggars Sect also came.
Hearing Kang Min's words, they were all shocked.
Immediately, Quan Guanqing walked to Bai Shijing's corpse to check the situation, and then exclaimed in surprise: "Throat-Locking Technique?!"
Kang Min immediately "stupefied" said: "He used the Throat-Locking Technique to kill Elder Bai?"
Those few Elders were shocked, one after another stepped forward to check, and then their expressions were complex.
"It really is the Throat-Locking Technique."
"It is indeed correct."
Among them, someone asked Kang Min again: "Mrs. Ma, was that person really Qiao Feng?"
Kang Min said: "Of course, I saw it with my own eyes."
After speaking, she cried and said: "I already said at the time that my late husband Dayuan died at the hands of Qiao Feng. Unfortunately, my words were weak, and you all did not believe it. Now he not only came to me, but also harmed the life of Elder Bai. If you had believed it then and brought him to justice on the spot, how would Elder Bai have..."
Kang Min did not finish the following words, turning to sobbing.
Several Beggars Sect Elders understood the unfinished meaning; looking at Bai Shijing's corpse, they looked at each other, speechless for a time.
Quan Guanqing sighed and said: "Money cannot buy early knowledge; this matter cannot be blamed on the Elders. At that time, Qiao Feng behaved with great righteousness; who would have thought he..."
Halfway through, he waved his hand and said: "The matter has reached this point; it is useless to say more. Besides, the dead are the most important, and Mrs. Ma has been frightened. Let us carry Elder Bai's body out and settle it; we will talk about the rest later."
This statement had no problem, so those few Elders all agreed, called Disciples to move Bai Shijing's body away, comforted Kang Min a few words, and then left.
Quan Guanqing did the same.
However, not long after he left, he snuck back.
"Speak, what exactly happened?"
After entering and confirming there was no problem, Quan Guanqing was straightforward with Kang Min.
Kang Min said faintly: "You do not care about me at all."
Quan Guanqing said coldly: "Put away that act of yours; do not think I do not know that you also had an affair with that old guy Bai Shijing."
He is an opportunist, likes beauty, but wants power more. The reason why he helped Kang Min set up a trap to harm Qiao Feng at the beginning indeed had components of being obsessed with beauty, but more of it was seeing an opportunity and wanting to climb up.
Now that he is already the Beggars Sect Leader, there is no need to borrow Kang Min's strength, so he is naturally cold to her.
Especially after knowing that the other party had an affair with an old guy like Bai Shijing, he felt disgusted just thinking about it.
Returning to ask this time was because the matter involved Qiao Feng and Bai Shijing; he wanted to know the truth to see if the matter would affect him.
Seeing him like this, Kang Min felt cold in her heart, but her surface did not change.
Subsequently, she thought for a moment, deleted the part where she seduced Qiao Feng, and told the matter truthfully.
After hearing this, Quan Guanqing frowned and thought for a while, then asked: "Is that Leading Big Brother really Abbot Xuan Ci of Shaolin Monastery?"
Kang Min smiled and said: "You do not believe it? Qiao Feng also did not believe it; I also found it hard to believe at first. After all, who could believe that the virtuous and respected Shaolin Monastery Abbot would actually mistakenly kill innocent people, and after doing wrong, cover it up and dare not admit it."
"But it just happens to be the truth."
"At the same time, it is also an opportunity for you."
"My opportunity?" Quan Guanqing did not understand.
Kang Min bewitched: "Are you not always worried that your prestige is not enough and your position as Leader is not stable? If you can pull that hypocritical Shaolin Monastery Abbot off his high pedestal, not only will you be in the limelight, but the fame of the Beggars Sect will also surpass Shaolin Monastery because of this."
"Thus, your prestige in the Beggars Sect will inevitably surpass Qiao Feng, and even surpass all previous Leaders."
"Even becoming the leader of the entire Jianghu is not impossible."
Hearing this, Quan Guanqing's heart became hot...
