<h4>Chapter 864: Chapter 866: Striding Away</h4>


    Chu Ge nodded in agreement, "Actually, we still need to know what their true purpose is."


    "Alright, you all go pack up and head to the Gambling Stone Field first, don’t worry about these things."


    Chu Ge waved Lin Dong and the others off, and when he looked up, he saw Long Ang yawning as he descended the stairs.


    Long Ang gave an embarrassed smile, "Sorry, it’s my first day not having to wake up early or carry those responsibilities, so I overslept."


    Chu Ge shook his head with a smile, "Even though we possess martial arts, living like ordinary people is a different kind of experience. No need to apologize, it’s quite nice this way."


    Long Ang saw everyone gathered in the living room, their expressions not particrly good, and a hint of suspicion shed through his heart.


    "Did something happen?"


    Chu Ge nodded and roughly exined to Long Ang. The TV had already switched to other news, so Long Ang couldn’t see the bodies anymore.


    "The ones on TV are censored anyway, even if you wanted to look, you couldn’t see clearly,"


    Huo Tianqian said.


    Jian Chunqiu took out his phone from his pocket, opened the photo album, and handed it to them, "These are photos I took at the scene, secretly."


    Chu Ge took it with curiosity, and Lin Dong and the others gathered around with interest, but when they saw the images, Lin Dong and Lin Zhao almost gagged with nausea.


    In the pictures, the bodies were like dried branches.


    "Is this Star Shifting Technique really that powerful?"


    Lin Dong covered his mouth, still somewhat incredulous as he asked.


    "Isn’t this too cruel, how is it different from ashes?"


    Long Ang was also looking at the photos, and as if he saw something, he squinted his eyes. He snatched the phone from Chu Ge, wanting a clearer look.


    Chu Ge looked at him suspiciously, "What’s wrong?"


    Long Ang shook his head, "How is this possible?"


    "What’s how is this possible?"


    Everyone looked at Long Ang curiously, and Jian Chunqiu got up from the sofa, looking at him confused, "Did you discover something?"


    Long Ang pointed to the rope in the phone’s photo, "This is the Binding Rope unique to our Dragon Group; once tied with this rope, there’s no breaking free."


    But now the rope appeared in the warehouse; from the looks of the photo, it’s obvious these ropes were used to bind those people.


    A bold guess formed in Long Ang’s mind, that someone from their Dragon Group had colluded with the ck Widow.


    Jian Chunqiu and Chu Ge had the same suspicion.


    Jian Chunqiu and Chu Ge exchanged a nce, nodding in mutual understanding, "It seems you being removed from the group leader position and even expelled from the Dragon Group wasn’t without reason."


    "Exactly, your presence obstructed their ns. It seems they didn’t want you topete with us in Ancient Martial Arts, possibly for this reason."


    Long Ang pressed his lips tightly together and returned the phone to Chu Ge, clenching his hand tightly at his side.


    He wasn’t sure how he felt right now, but he knew his chest was about to explode.


    He never thought there woulde a day when the Dragon Group would betray its principles so thoroughly.


    "Long Ang, don’t get worked up; maybe this is all a misunderstanding?" Lin Dong consoled him.


    Long Ang shook his head, "It’s not a misunderstanding; I wouldn’t mistake this. It’s the Binding Rope unique to our Dragon Group."


    "But concluding that the Dragon Group and ck Widow are colluding based on one rope is too hasty, isn’t it?"


    Chu Ge nodded in agreement, "We’ll investigate this thoroughly, Long Ang. Don’t overthink it for now. After everything is rified, we can decide."


    Long Ang nodded; that’s all they could do for now.


    "Oh, Long Ang, you don’t need to go to the Gambling Stone Field today."


    Chu Ge suddenly said.


    Long Ang was taken aback, looking at Chu Ge in confusion, "I..."


    "Today’s events are significant; we must investigate. And you just said the rope is unique to your Dragon Group, so I think it would be more appropriate for you to apany us."


    Long Ang sighed in relief and nodded, "Okay, I’ll go with you."


    He had initially thought Chu Ge wasn’t going to use him because of the Dragon Group issues.


    So Lin Dong and Lin Zhao went to the Gambling Stone Field first.


    While Huo Tianqian and Long Ang stayed with Chu Ge to return to the warehouse where the incident urred.


    But now the warehouse was cordoned off, and they couldn’t get in, only able to observe from a distance.


    Meanwhile, in a secret base of the Dragon Group, two people stood with tempers ring.


    "What did you just say? You said you left the Binding Rope on those people duringst night’s operation?"


    The other person nodded, "Elder Su, what should we do now? If someone recognizes the rope as unique to our Dragon Group, we’re done for."

    Elder Su scoffed disdainfully, "If anyone’s done for, it’s you, not me!"


    "But..." The person was puzzled, "But I... Elder Su, you were the one who sent me on the operationst night! You can’t just abandon me now."


    Elder Su red at him impatiently, "Yes, I sent you, but you’re the one so careless to leave such an important, identifying thing like the Binding Rope behind!"


    "If anyone sees it, they’ll surely suspect our Dragon Group, and when the boss starts investigating..."


    The person grew more fearful, "Elder Su, you have to help me, save me."


    Elder Su sighed, "Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of your family."


    Hearing this, the person panicked, shaking his head, "Elder Su, what do you mean? Are you saying you’ll abandon me after crossing the river?"


    "You created this mess, you deal with it yourself!"


    After speaking, Elder Su turned to leave, unwilling to argue any further.


    Suddenly, the person’s expression turned cold, "Elder Su, since you’re so heartless, don’t me me for being unkind! I’m going to tell the Great Elder about your collusion with Ancient Martial Arts and the Japanese Invaders!"


    As the person said this, he was about to walk away.


    Elder Su paused in his step, turning to re at the person, with a sudden ruthless gleam appearing in his eyes. As the person almost passed by him, Elder Su swiftly grabbed his neck.


    Without giving the person a chance to speak another word, Elder Su twisted his neck.


    Looking at the body at his feet, Elder Su huffed coldly, "I was going to spare you, but you wouldn’t listen, so don’t me me for my ruthlessness."


    He took a white handkerchief from his pocket, gently wiped his hands, then tossed the handkerchief onto the person’s face, and walked away decisively...
