World’s End: My Keyword is One More Than Others

Chapter 70: Puzzle

This is very embarrassing!

Why is Feng Qi so careless? How could such an important letter be leaked? Shouldn't it have been burned after reading?

It was such a wonderful performance that fooled everyone.

If the truth is revealed in the end, after getting rid of the Heavenly Demon, and both sides shake hands and reconcile, it would be a legendary story that will be passed down through the ages. How did the secret letter get exposed?

What will happen to the Qiao Family if this spreads?

...

"I didn't expect Qiao Pingjiang to be a good person."

"It's a pity that a great show ended completely because of a small accident. Feng Qi shouldn't have let such an important letter leak out, let alone let it spread everywhere."

"It is said that the Heavenly Demon hidden in the Peacekeeping Gang did it. The Heavenly Demon's supernatural powers are unstoppable. This letter was supposed to be burned, but I don't know how the Heavenly Demon managed to restore it."

"In that case, it's not Feng Qi's fault. Who could have expected it! It can only be said that the Heavenly Demon is too cunning."

"Both sides are still quiet now. They probably don't know how to continue the show!"

"The Qiao Family is finished. They recruited so many Heavenly Demons. Once they know the truth, those Heavenly Demons will surely devour the Qiao Family alive!"

"I even wrote a letter to insult Qiao Pingjiang. Should I write another letter to apologize to the Qiao Family?"

"It's too late to write a letter now. If you burn a letter and send it over, Qiao Pingjiang might still be able to see it."

"What are you talking about? We have to find a way to fix this..."

...

There were discussions among the people.

Shortly after the secret letter was leaked, the patrolling inspection team of the Peacekeeping Gang quickly took action and tore down the letters posted on the streets, and immediately released a rumor-denying announcement.

They claimed that the secret letter incident was fabricated by the Qiao Family to whitewash themselves, and urged everyone not to believe it. The Qiao Family was still the hypocritical family that sheltered the Heavenly Demon, and Qiao Pingjiang was the number one hypocrite in the world...

But this remedial measure was full of loopholes and couldn't withstand scrutiny. There was a strong sense of cover-up.

The sympathy for the Qiao Family among the people grew stronger. Many commoners even went to the Peacekeeping Gang, asking Feng Qi to save the Qiao Family, fearing that they would be too late and the Qiao Family would be destroyed.

...

The Qiao Family recruited more than sixty Heavenly Demons.

Most of these Heavenly Demons were from Du Ge's territory.

The methods of the Peacekeeping Gang's inspection team were too ruthless. If there was any suspicion, they would exterminate them without mercy.

What was even more despicable was that even their own relatives and loved ones, they had to face them with their loved ones' faces. Even if they changed their souls, it was still a longing to see their loved ones' faces every day!

But for a little money, these people would betray them without hesitation, and unfortunately, they couldn't withstand the verification of the inspection team.

It was impossible to grow in such a hostile environment.

Going to the Simulation Field was a chance for anyone with ambition. Who wouldn't want to compete for the top ten in the Simulation Field?

Even if they had bad luck and were assigned a keyword that had no potential, they couldn't compete for the top ten, but being able to survive in the Simulation Field until the end was still worth it.

But Feng Qi, that damn guy, even cut off their chance to survive.

The Qiao Family's declaration was their last straw for survival.

Even if the Qiao Family might have ulterior motives, the pitiful Heavenly Demons still ran to the Qiao Family to seek refuge.

Their hatred for Feng Qi surpassed everything. As long as they could get rid of him and vent their anger, even if they were used by the Qiao Family, it would be worth it.

If they could use the power of the Qiao Family and make it to the top ten in the Simulation Field, it would be a huge profit.

After Feng Qi overturned the table, the survival rules they learned in school were no longer effective. They had to stick together.

The Qiao Family was also helpful. After understanding their attributes, the Qiao Family specially arranged a trial ground for them and promised that the Qiao Family's holy land would also be open to them...

Everything was like being in heaven.

They even secretly agreed on a strategy. After helping the Qiao Family get rid of Feng Qi, the remaining people would compete among themselves for the top ten in the Simulation Field, and each would have their own destiny.

In short, the absolute priority was to not let Feng Qi, who overturned the table, leave the Simulation Field as one of the top ten. They could lose in the Simulation Field, but Feng Qi must die.

...

But just a few days after their leisurely days, the Heavenly Demons learned about the Qiao Family and Feng Qi's plan.

Under the influence of rumors.

In an instant, the Qiao Family's camp of Heavenly Demons exploded.

"Damn it, it's already unlucky enough to be assigned a sad keyword. I just wanted to survive until the end in the Simulation Field. This damn Feng Qi wants to exterminate us. I hope I don't find out his identity in reality..." A participant named Lu Jingping became furious.

At this moment, despair filled his heart. The sadness in his heart surged like a river, and his stagnant attribute inexplicably improved. Lu Jingping couldn't help but be stunned, "Damn it, the skill of a grieving soldier is to win. What kind of bullshit advanced skill is this?"

"Exactly! I'll say it straight, my keyword is disguise. With so many of us, let's find a way to kill Qiao Pingjiang. I will play his role and fight Feng Qi with real weapons. I can't betray everyone. With so many of us, we can't be defeated by Feng Qi and his two companions!" A participant named Ji Ping stood up angrily.

"Is it possible that this is Feng Qi's scheme to sow discord?" a Heavenly Demon timidly asked, "Qiao Pingjiang has been good to us. Is it too much to harm him because of a secret letter?"

"Do we have to wait for him to join forces with Feng Qi and raise the butcher's knife against us?" a female participant named Sang Yan smashed a flowerpot nearby, "I'm tired of this weak and pathetic life. We are Heavenly Demons, why should we be commanded by a native?"

"Everyone, calm down. My keyword is instigation. I will go find the leader of the Beggar's Sect and see if I can persuade him to join us and replace the Qiao Family." a participant named Jiang Wei said, "I don't believe that Feng Qi can bribe all the sects even after joining forces with the Qiao Family."

"I'll go too. My keyword is persuasion, which can increase the success rate of diplomacy." another Heavenly Demon said.

"My keyword is peace. Am I useless now..."

"Then let's capture Qiao Pingjiang's wife and daughter, and threaten him to stand with us."......

Not only the Heavenly Demon protected by the Qiao Family.

The Beggar's Sect, Azure Dragon Gang, Tianshan Sect, and other martial sects that had arrived early at the Qiao Family also felt they had been played. One by one, they ran to find Qiao Pingjiang, demanding him to explain the truth.

......

The Qiao Family was in chaos.

At this moment.

Watching the suddenly chaotic Qiao Family, Qiao Pingjiang, who was hiding in the side courtyard, was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. He paced back and forth, "Mr. Zhao, Feng Qi is truly cunning, resorting to such dirty tactics to sow discord. Mr. Zhao, you can't believe Feng Qi. You know the details of the Qiao Family, how could I possibly write such a letter to him?"

Mr. Zhao was a young man, looking about twenty-four or five years old. He took the secret letter from Qiao Pingjiang's hand, crumpled it into a ball, and threw it on the ground, saying, "Family Master, my supernatural power is Wenta, which can see through all conspiracies. How could I not know that this is Feng Qi's poisonous scheme? If I didn't trust the Family Master, I wouldn't have come to join you."

Qiao Pingjiang worriedly said, "But what about the Heavenly Demons in the mansion? They no longer trust me! How could they fall for such a crude scheme? How could they be so naive?"

"It might be the supernatural power of the Heavenly Demons! Family Master, don't panic, I'll go and explain to them. My supernatural power, Wulue, can increase their trust in me, and I can persuade them!" Seeing Qiao Pingjiang still anxious, he raised his voice, "Family Master, don't mess up our plans. The major sects are rushing here. Once we gather all the forces in the martial world, we can kill Feng Qi, and the rumors will naturally fall apart. As long as we hold steady, the one who can't sit still will definitely be Feng Qi."

"Will the Martial Arts Tournament of the Qiao Family be affected by this?" Qiao Pingjiang's mood slightly eased, asking.

"Family Master, rest assured, it won't mess up the Qiao Family's century-old plan. Feng Qi's power has been established, if we can't break his attributes, we can't break his martial strength. We also need to borrow the power of the Martial Saint to kill Feng Qi." Mr. Zhao looked at Qiao Pingjiang and calmly said, he glanced at Qiao Pingjiang, "Family Master, I still have to remind you, there's no one here, it's okay to talk about it, but don't mention the resurrection of the Martial Saint too much in the Qiao Family. Things are accomplished in secret, the Heavenly Demons are sharp-eared and bright-eyed, if they find out about this, I'm afraid they will really cause chaos."

Qiao Pingjiang sighed dejectedly, "Poor me, Qiao, has been upright all my life, but for the sake of my ancestors, I have to engage in these conspiracies, I feel guilty!"

"In times of chaos, the Qiao Family has provided shelter for the Heavenly Demons, which is already a great kindness and righteousness. It's just using a part of their blood, and it won't take their lives. Killing Feng Qi will also bring them peace and happiness. I believe they will all understand the Family Master in the end." Mr. Zhao said, "Family Master, you don't need to feel guilty about this."

"Mr. Zhao, I'll ask you one last time, is the blood of the Heavenly Demons really more vital than the blood of young martial artists? The Qiao Family has risked the world's great disapproval to protect the Heavenly Demons, you could say we've bet everything. If the ancestor can't be resurrected, I..." Qiao Pingjiang asked.

"Family Master, we're already tied together. The stronger the Qiao Family is, the stronger I can be. Why would I deceive you?" Mr. Zhao looked at Qiao Pingjiang and said, "The Heavenly Demons can improve their own physique, the higher the attribute, the greater the change, their blood vitality is many times stronger than ordinary people. If we can trick the three of Feng Qi to kill them, perhaps their blood alone is enough to resurrect the Martial Saint."

"I mean..." Qiao Pingjiang was about to speak, but was interrupted by Mr. Zhao before he could open his mouth.

"Family Master, if Feng Qi ends up controlling the world, let alone the Martial Arts Tournament, the Qiao Family might not even exist. Then the Qiao Family's century-long plan would be in vain." Mr. Zhao looked at Qiao Pingjiang and calmly said, "Eliminate Feng Qi, resurrect the Martial Saint, bestow grace on the Heavenly Demons, multiple gains in one move. If we can succeed, no one can shake the title of the Qiao Family being the first family. Family Master, only those with a firm heart can achieve great things. This is the last chance, we can only win, not lose."

"But the current situation, sects like Kunlun might also watch and wait, they won't easily come to the Qiao Family." Qiao Pingjiang worriedly said.

"I've got everything under control. Don't forget, my keyword is strategy, I naturally have an advantage in layout." Mr. Zhao confidently laughed, "Feng Qi's move also gave us an opportunity, we can use his scheme against him, and lure Feng Qi into the trap."
