Chapter 68 - 55 Foreign Combat Personnel_2
But now, it seemed he had no intention of continuing the pretense.
He Xiong said, "When Kong Sheng received this assignment, he didn’t know the details of the task. He only knew he had to kill someone. I believe others who received the task were the same, Ning Wu concealed your information from them all, which explains everything."
"After all, considering the Mysterious Object, Ning Wu’s caution was justified."
Li Yi said, "All this is just my speculation. There might be another possibility, which is that Ning Wu thought my cultivation speed was excessively rapid and abnormal, suspecting that I actually possessed a Mysterious Object, and therefore she attacked me."
"That’s possible. Opening your Spirit Medium capability in a month is indeed incredible, but it isn’t surprising considering your serendipitous encounter in the Ruined District, where you also acquired your Boxing techniques," He Xiong said, clearly having thoroughly investigated Li Yi’s information.
"Whether it’s about the Mysterious Object or just a misunderstanding, we’ll have to see how the investigation bureau closes the case," Li Yi said.

This moment, He Xiong smiled and said, "I’ve gotten a clear picture now. Ning Wu and Crow’s group believed that Li Yi’s cultivation was advancing too rapidly. They speculated that he possessed a Mysterious Object, which is why they organized this assault. The truth is he had a fortuitous adventure in the Ruined District, which allowed him to open his Spirit Medium and also acquire a set of Boxing techniques, giving him the capability to fight back and kill Ning Wu and the others."
"Let’s close the case with this explanation. The captain doesn’t want to make a big fuss, especially since we’ve been so busy lately."
"That sounds good," Wang Jian then looked at Li Yi, "Was it you who killed the fugitive Wang Kui?"
