Last Totem Novel - Chapter 110

Chapter 110 Pride
Tie Zha narrowed his eyes and swept his gaze across the crowd. At the same time, he bent over and gathered his strength, ready to explode at any moment and kill everything around him!

“What are you doing! Get out of the way!” Zi Yanqing shouted from the front. The soldiers looked at each other and were about to put away their weapons when another voice sounded from the side.

“Don’t let him go! He’s the murderer! Kill him! Kill him!” Li Tuohai rushed out of the crowd and saw his face full of tears. He pointed at Tie Zha with a face full of hatred and cried hysterically.

“Retreat immediately!” Zi Yanqing shouted angrily. The soldiers came back to their senses, put down their weapons and retreated.

Tie Zha frowned and coldly looked at Li Tuohai who was like a madman, his gaze extremely sharp! It was like a knife cutting!

A trace of fear flashed through Li Tuohai’s eyes, and he calmed down. He pointed at the iron slag and continued shouting, “He! That’s him! I saw him bully … bully …” As he said that, Li Tuohai couldn’t stop sobbing. Tuoba San hurriedly stepped forward to support him and comforted him in a low voice.

With a cold face, Tie Zha walked out of the crowd and asked Zi Yanqing, “What’s going on?” As he spoke, he maintained his state of readiness, and the corner of his eyes landed around him. As long as the other party did something wrong, he would suddenly explode! Although the soldiers had temporarily retreated, he still did not relax his vigilance. No one could be trusted until they saw Cozan!

“Something very regrettable happened last night” Zi Yanqing could hardly control her emotions as her voice trembled. He took a deep breath and looked up at the sky …

After a while, Zi Yanqing regained her calm and slowly said, “Seventh Sister … was harmed …”

Tie Zha’s pupils suddenly shrank, and an ominous premonition surged into his heart. He almost couldn’t help but make a move.

Seeing this, Zi Yanqing’s expression changed drastically as she stared at Tie Zha. The air instantly froze, and it was so cold that one’s teeth trembled.

“Where’s Cozan?” Tie Zha asked in a deep voice. At the same time, he bowed and gathered his strength. As long as the other party’s answer did not satisfy him, his sword would be unsheathed and he would drink blood!

“Friend, I’m here.” Cozan walked out of the crowd. The iron slag heaved a sigh of relief and relaxed its body. As long as Kozan was around, everything would be fine.

Tie Zha asked what was going on. Cozan looked at the soldiers around him and said to Zi Yanqing, “Child, let’s go in and discuss it.”

Zi Yanqing nodded and waved his hand. The soldiers immediately left the castle and returned to the aircraft.

“Senior Brother! You can’t let him go! I saw it with my own eyes! He killed Qingluan! He killed Qingluan! It’s him!” Li Tuohai struggled to stand up and madly crashed into Tie Zha!

Tie Zha’s eyes narrowed as he held the hilt of the sword with his back hand. As long as Li Tuohai dared to approach, he would kill him with a single sword strike!

At this moment, Cozan shouted! The sound waves carried a magnificent momentum, causing a powerful airflow to fly out of the surroundings!

Li Tuohai and Tuoba San rolled in the air for a while before falling heavily to the ground. As for the iron slag, it flipped backwards and landed firmly on the ground. Turning around, Zi Yanqing stood upright and translated backwards for a short while. Very quickly, she stopped her castration. Then, she clasped her fists and said, “Senior, please calm down.”

“The evidence is conclusive! Again, blame! Glorious Sacred Flame! Exterminate evil!” Cozan’s voice was so strong that it made one’s eardrums go numb. At the same time, his pair of copper bell-like eyes stared straight at Li Tuohai. His gaze was as solid as fire, causing his opponent’s scalp to go numb.

A few minutes later, Cozan, Tie Zha, Zi Yanqing, Li Tuohai, and Tuoba sat down face to face at the wooden table in the kitchen.

Cozan asked Zi Yanqing to repeat what had happened. Zi Yanqing said that at around 10 o’clock last night, Li Tuohai crawled back and said that he saw Tie Zha raping Bi Qingluan in the Holy Lake. Moreover, Tie Zha wanted to kill him to silence him, so he escaped. At that time, Zi Yanqing and Cozan were chatting and drinking in the kitchen. Upon hearing the news, they immediately rushed to the Holy Lake. As soon as they entered the Sacred Lake, they saw Bi Qingluan soaking in the pool with her face facing down. After pulling it up, she had lost her aura. After preliminary examination, there was a large amount of bruises on Bi Qingluan’s neck. It was possible that she was choked to death by strangling her neck.

“Murderer, murderer!” Li Tuohai looked at Tie Zha with hatred and whispered.

“Li Tuohai, don’t forget that you are also suspected!” Cozan said in a deep voice, “Please don’t blame each other before the matter becomes clear!”

“You’re unjust! Your Temple of Glory favors our own people! He was the one who killed them, yet you still want to argue.” Li Tuohai said loudly.

“Senior, Seventh Sister can’t die in vain. You must punish the murderer severely! Find justice for our Azure Snake Divine Temple.” Tuoba San echoed.

“Stop making noise!” Zi Yanqing said in a deep voice. Then, he looked at Tie Zha and asked, “Brother Tie, where did you go last night? Can you explain it?”

“I’m going to hit the bear.” Iron slag said.

“You think we’re all fools to go hunt bears in the middle of the night!” Li Tuohai shouted.

“That’s all. Believe it or not, it’s up to you.” Tie Zha spread out his hands and looked coldly at Li Tuohai, as if he was looking at a corpse.

“Your Temple of Glory eats our food, dresses us, and rapes our women! I must tell the Great Grandmaster when we return! Tell the Spirit Channeling Magician! Tell the Ancient Prophet! Tell them what you’ve done to our Ancient Temple!” Li Tuohai shouted loudly.

Cozan was so angry that his entire body trembled as he listened to Zhu Xin’s words. “Boom!” The wheat teacup in his hand was forcefully crushed by him.

“We know that you are a Saint realm expert. Do you want to force us to submit? I, Li Tuohai, will not yield even if I die!” Li Tuohai clenched his fists and said, “Even if I risk my life, I will still seek justice for Little Senior Sister!”

Tie Zha grinned and whispered, “That’s death …” As he spoke, Tie Zha suddenly made a move and punched Li Tuohai in the face. With a muffled “bang” sound, Li Tuohai flew backwards and heavily smashed into the wall, causing his teeth to jump all over the ground.

Seeing this, Tuoba San shouted and threw his fist at Tie Zha. Tie Zha raised his hand to block, opened Tuoba San’s fist, and returned the punch! In an instant, Cozan and Zi Yanqing exchanged a glance before getting up at the same time. Cozan pulled Tie Zha away and Zi Yanqing pulled Tuoba San away.

As the conflict ended, the two of them sat down on both sides of the dining table.

“Senior, we will set off tomorrow to transport Junior Sister’s body back. There are inspection equipment over there. When the time comes, the truth will be revealed. I hope Senior can give her justice.” Zi Yanqing cupped his fists and said.

“Alright.” Ke Zan sighed in admiration, as if he had aged a lot in an instant.

“I didn’t expect you to repay me with your kindness!” Tuoba San roared out of control.

“Third Brother!” Zi Yanqing’s eyes widened as he shouted harshly!

Tuoba San panted heavily and looked at Tie Zha. He said in a deep voice, “Ancient rage will definitely burn you to ashes!” With that, he left without turning his head.

Tie Zha snorted coldly. This kind of fool deserved to be bullied if he was sold for money! The negotiations between the two sides ended in displeasure. They did not clarify the facts nor did they produce any results.

Before leaving, Li Tuohai suggested returning to the aircraft to sleep. Zi Yanqing shook her head and said that she was still living in the castle tonight. After all, this was a glorious place. He believed that the character of the old man would not be disadvantageous to them. Moreover, if Senior really attacked them, they would have already lost their lives.

Li Tuohai insisted on returning to the aircraft to sleep. Zi Yanqing said, “I don’t care where you go to sleep, but I, Zi Yanqing, will definitely stay here. You can go wherever you feel safe. It doesn’t matter.” Then, he sighed and earnestly pleaded, “Our junior brothers are here to watch over our little junior sisters, so we should take care of each other, okay?”

Helplessly, Li Tuohai agreed to stay in the castle for the last night. However, what persuaded him in the end was the phrase “take care of each other”.

Before they parted, Cozan took out a medicinal wine from the cupboard and handed it to Zi Yanqing. He said that it was a healing medicinal wine personally prepared by the War Song Shaman Blood Wolf Field two hundred years ago. He applied it to Li Tuohai and the swelling would subside tomorrow morning.

Li Tuohai looked at Kezan with resentment and said, “I don’t want your dirty stuff! Bah! Hypocritical! Killer!”

“Senior, thank you.” Zi Yanqing cupped his fists and said. Then, he put away the medicinal wine and pulled Li Tuohai out.

After everyone left, Cozan patted Tie Zha’s shoulder, telling him not to think too much and to rest in peace. Everything would be fine.

Tie Zha looked at Cozan and asked seriously, “Do you believe me?”

Cozan did not answer. He picked up the candle and turned around to leave. When he reached the door, he said without turning his head, “You are my pride …”

Looking at the old man’s back, Iron Slag let out a deep breath.

Even if you’re the only one in this world who agrees with me, that’s enough!

The iron slag returned to his room and stood on the edge of the bed, looking up at the sky. He watched the sun gradually set, and the moon quietly rose, not moving for a long time. At three o’clock in the middle of the night, Tie Zha poured himself a glass of ice crystal fruit wine, drank it all in one gulp, and then said in a deep voice, “Alice!”

[My captain, at your disposal]

“Immediately head to the north side of the castle and stand by.”

[Yes, my captain]

After making a plan, one person and one car left the house. Alice went to the designated location on her own, and Tie Zha arrived at the power armor assembly room on the east side of the first floor.

After stepping onto the disk, the female voice of a mechanically synthesized voice sounded from the horn above.

[Respected Guardian, please choose the type of power armor to be assembled]

“Nightingale.” Said Tie Zha.

[Assemble Nightingale Power Armor, please confirm]

“Confirm.”

[Please stand naturally, scan begins … Du … Du … Du …]

A moment later …

Tie Zha, dressed in compact power armor, walked down the disk. The armor had very few protective plates. Most of the area was covered with fine alloy chains. The inner armor and outer armor were very close to each other and did not have much cushioning space. Therefore, the armor’s defensive capabilities were weak, but it was very flexible. It was designed solely for night travel and attacks.

Tie Zha checked his entire body and tried his hands on the climbing claws. After confirming that everything was normal, he ignited the power plant and walked out of the assembly room.
