"You lot were all waiting at the Lu Family's place to ambush Ling Miaoying," he said. "But while you were waiting there, Ling Miaoying sneaked over here and tried to ambush Freewind Wharf instead. That's called taking advantage of an opening. That's called luring the tiger away from the mountain. That's called making noise in the east while attacking in the west. You get it?"
Ma Wu nodded at once. "I get it."
"But what he didn't expect was that I stayed behind at Freewind Wharf. So when he finally made his move, he wasn't ready for me at all, and I caught him red-handed. You can understand that part too, right?"
Ma Wu nodded again. "I can."
Li Banfeng frowned. "So with this explanation, you should at least be able to clear things up with Qiu Zhiheng and the others, right?"
Ma Wu shook his head. "Nope. Can't explain it."
"How can you not explain it?"
