Chapter 718: Chapter 44 We Should Not Become Enemies

After leaving the security office, An Yixin walked towards the classroom when a voice sounded from behind.

"Wait."

An Yixin turned around to find it was Zhang Jingyi from the same class, and immediately became alert again, "What, you’re not afraid of bears tearing up your homework again?"

"You’ve got it wrong, I’m not here to cause trouble," Zhang Jingyi hastily said.

Recalling the black bear from before, her face also didn’t look very good.

"May I ask if those animals were transformed by your magic? So you are actually a witch, like the ones in ’Harry Potter’?"

An Yixin snorted, neither admitting nor objecting, and retorted, "What do you want from me?"

"Oh, I came to apologize," Zhang Jingyi struggled to squeeze out a smile, "I shouldn’t have accused you of stealing my ipadpro without any proof."

"What else?"

"And also... oh, about those messages, it wasn’t me who spread them around. When Han Jie suggested doing that, I felt it was a bit inappropriate.

"But I indeed should have been more decisive at the time and stopped her right away. That way, those nasty rumors wouldn’t have spread around the class..."

"What are you trying to say..." An Yixin cut Zhang Jingyi off impatiently.

Zhang Jingyi bit her lip, "I, I just want to apologize to you once more, and... I want to say we don’t really need to be enemies."

"What should we be then?"

"Fri... friends?" suggested Zhang Jingyi, "You see you always wear headphones, you must really like listening to music.

"I happen to have two concert tickets for G.E.M., but I can’t find another person willing to go with me. So I was wondering if you were free on Saturday..."

"f*ck off, B*tch," An Yixin flipped Zhang Jingyi the bird and then walked away without turning back.

Zhang Jingyi was left standing there, mouth agape, her face alternating between shades of green and white.

......

By the time Li Yu returned to Bratis, the day had already broken. Miss Rabbit had also woken up and had even finished her firearms training in the woods.

Ever since learning that the Wing Tribe’s army might come to attack Green Field without any apparent reason, the Lady had been actively preparing for war.

In addition to continuing to expand the army, stepping up training, manufacturing weapons armor, and constantly digging tunnels, she herself hadn’t been idle either, beginning to practice shooting every day.

She even had Ge Lipeng add rifling to her favorite gun.

But at this moment, Miss Rabbit had already finished her target practice and was mumbling with Fosto and Ruby.

Miss Rabbit seemed to be in a good mood, her face beaming with a bright smile.

Seeing this, Li Yu asked, "What are you laughing about?"

"Ah, I just heard something really funny." The Lady turned around, saw Li Yu had arrived, and her eyes lit up, eager to share the juicy news she had just heard today.

"What is it?"

"The radio station you left in Lake City sent an urgent message this morning, that two members of the Wing Tribe were found dead in Lake City," Miss Rabbit said.

"Hmm? Wing Tribe members have appeared in the West again, were they caught by the Marier family’s guards?"

"No, no, no, the funny thing about it is right here; do you know by whose hand they died?"

"Who?" Although Li Yu had already guessed who the murderer might be, he still asked cooperatively.

"The Blood Moon Association, it was someone from the Blood Moon Association who killed them," the Lady finally stopped teasing and revealed the answer herself.

"You wouldn’t have expected it, but it’s said that they had been asking around the city, inquiring if anyone had seen a group of Wing Tribe members flying overhead or by any other means recently. As a result, they caught the attention of a few disciples of the Blood Moon Association.

"The next morning, their bodies were found in a room at a city inn, their throats slit.

"There were also words written in blood on the wall—this is what happens to those who anger Pisya! And messages about avenging Priest Herodotus and exterminating the Wing Tribe," Miss Rabbit narrated the murder that happened in Lake City with relish.

Li Yu knew this was also one of the chain reactions to Herodotus’s death.

When Zhu Zhigang was resurrected by Li Yu in Bratis, it was done using the body of the Wing Tribe. Later, he attempted to assassinate Herodotus and took it upon himself not to use a gun.

In broad daylight, he directly killed Herodotus and then casually walked away.

And now it seems that the remnants of the Blood Moon Association have pinned the blame for this account on those supposed Wing Tribe invaders.

Although they did not know why the Wing Tribe wanted to assassinate Herodotus, there had been no ill will between the two sides before the tragic events in Duolin City.

In fact, by launching a rebellion and killing Gwen, causing instability in the Western Territory, Herodotus had, to some extent, helped the Wing Tribe.

But instead of being grateful, these Wing Tribe members repaid kindness with treachery by killing the leader of the Blood Moon Association.

From this perspective, it was not difficult to understand why the remnants of the Blood Moon Association harbored such intense hatred for the Wing Tribe.

However, this turned out to be good news for the Double Rest Sect.

Li Yu had considered framing the Wing Tribe before, but this would undoubtedly increase the risk for Zhu Zhigang to carry out his mission.

Originally, all Zhu Zhigang needed to do was to find a good spot to take a sniper shot, eliminate the target, and retreat calmly before others reacted.

But if he planned to frame someone, he would have to show himself, and the archers present were not to be trifled with.

In the worst case, Zhu Zhigang could get injured or even lose his life, so from the standpoint of caring for his employee, Li Yu vetoed this plan. However, he never expected things to unfold in this way in the end.

After the loss of Herodotus, the Blood Moon Association predictably fell into disarray, but there were still many of Herodotus’s followers left.

If these people remained idle for too long, they were bound to stir up more trouble. Without considering how dangerous that could get, an accidental association with them would undoubtedly be troublesome.

Now that they had a new life goal, it actually saved Li Yu a lot of trouble.

But not all the remnants of the Blood Moon Association were out for revenge for Herodotus. It is said that after that day’s discussion, Ilkand also left Duolin City that very night.

And he took many people with him, including some priests of the Blood Moon Association and roughly a thousand soldiers.

Additionally, Hugo and Blanco had also switched their support to Ilkand, together accounting for nearly five hundred people.

Ilkand then disappeared with these fifteen hundred people, and there has been no word from him since.

Miss Rabbit became serious again after enjoying the story, because what Li Yu said was correct—the Wing Tribe in the Western Territory seemed to have increased recently, which was not a good sign.

The two who died this time were most likely sent by Solomon to investigate Shajia’s cause of death, and now they were dead too. It was unknown what Solomon would think about this.
