Fu Qian made his way forward, rapidly sorting through the current information in his mind.
He was now highly suspicious of a person—Deng Feizhou.
The entire incident had been characterized as a conspiracy by Chen Mingda and the Native Council.
The accepted storyline was that, in order to compensate for innate deficiencies, Chen Mingda had no qualms about collaborating with the Native Council to help them obtain Thorn Blood.
In return, the Native Council helped Chen Mingda break through his bottlenecks.
To achieve their goal, they targeted Henrik and eventually devised a scheme to control his mind, stealing the Thorn Blood out.
Their original plan, undoubtedly, was to make it appear that Henrik had been contaminated by a Demigod corpse and stole the Thorn Blood.
Then to control him to go on a killing spree, becoming a monster that ate human brains, and to be eliminated at the right moment, bringing the whole affair to an end.
