Amidst the sound of the alarm, Fu Qian could sense people rushing over from all directions, swiftly sealing off the small courtyard without leaving any gaps.
Under these circumstances, he was left without a plausible explanation.
But the good thing was that Fu Qian never liked to explain.
So, without looking back, he stood with his hands behind his back, feigning an upward gaze at the starry sky.
"Who are you? Why would you commit such a heinous act?"
Behind him came the furious roar of Huang Leji, and one could almost imagine his face contorted with rage.
Pretty impressive, the timing was impeccable.
To kill the person before his own arrival and then flee before he got there; subsequently, the Huang Family would find the anomaly and encircle him, making him the scapegoat.
If the timing had been off by even a slight bit, it would lead to a disastrous outcome.
A truly daring move, to snatch chestnuts out of the fire—was this Evil Omen leaping out of its own skin?
