Armor: Shura appears at the beginning
Chapter 173 Qiao Shefei's Disturbance
The surprise of reunion after a long separation quietly spread in the air.
"If it weren't for fate that made us meet again in the figure of Kufens, I'm afraid we would have to wait a long time for this reunion." Amice said this with a gentle smile on his young face.
The tranquility of the park was broken by the gathering of three former comrades-in-arms - Kufens, Qiao Shefei and Amice, the three captains of the Nether Legion, reunited at this moment.
"What's wrong with this wound on your face?!" Kufens' gaze fell on Qiao Shefei's slightly scarred face, and his tone revealed concern and confusion.
"Oh, it's just a minor injury." Qiao Shefei responded in a relaxed manner, waving his hand gently, as if to dispel the solemnity in the air, and then changed the subject and turned his gaze to Amice.
"And you, Amiceu, are you here with the general's intention to lead us back to the old path?"
A meaningful smile appeared on the corner of Amice's mouth, and he shook his head slightly, denying Qiao Shefei's guess.
"In fact, it's quite the opposite!"
Even as the son of Lufa, Amice felt that continuing this endless fight was not a wise move for the Netherworld Legion.
As soon as these words were spoken, Qiao Shefei and Kufens' eyes instantly became deep and complicated.
They all knew that during these long years of war, the one who had the greatest objection to Lufa's decisions was the seemingly gentle but actually determined Amice. This clarity and independence caused ripples in their hearts.
......
The light from the barber shop gently shines on the wall, and a yellowed photo hangs quietly. In the photo, the shop owner and the young man Xiaodong are smiling.
The shop owner stared at the scene, his heart filled with ripples: "Can Xiaodong's words really be believed? But..."
He muttered to himself, frowning, "Even if those words were true, how could I have the heart to say those hurtful words to Xiao Qiao?"
After a heavy sigh, the silence in the store was broken by the sudden ringing of the phone.
The boss picked up the phone immediately. On the other end, Xiaodong's hurried and frightened voice pierced the air: "Dad! Come and help me! Xiao Qiao...he wants to harm me!"
"Xiaodong, please tell me slowly, what's going on?" The shop owner's heart instantly rose to his throat, and his voice was filled with anxiety that was hard to conceal.
"He...he has been..." Xiaodong's voice was intermittent, as if his throat was tightly strangled by fear.
"Dad, I really can't hold on any longer, come and save me!"
......
In the park, Qiao Shefei had a quick conversation with Kufens and Amiceu, and then they went their separate ways.
However, the turning point of fate often comes unexpectedly. Just as Qiao Shefei took a few steps, an unexpected figure suddenly appeared in his sight.
"master?!"
Qiao Shefei stopped in astonishment and looked at the visitor in disbelief - the barber shop owner whom he respected deeply now had a distorted face, red eyes, and was full of anger and despair.
"You... why are you here?" Qiao Shefei's voice trembled slightly, and an ominous premonition arose in his heart.
The barber shop owner seemed not to hear his question and just kept roaring: "You murderer! Give me back Xiaodong! Give me back Xiaodong! It was you who hurt him!!!"
Every word seemed to be squeezed out from between teeth, filled with pain and resentment.
Qiao Shefei was stunned by this sudden accusation, looking confused: "Master, what are you talking about? How could I be the murderer? How could I hurt Xiaodong?"
"You hypocrite!" The barber shop owner was almost out of control. He took a step forward and clenched his fists, as if he was going to hit Qiao Shefei in the next second.
"I treated you like my own child, but you attacked my child!"
Qiao Shefei tried hard to explain, but faced with such a violent reaction from his master, he couldn't find the right words for a moment.
He could only watch his master's hands getting closer and closer. The hands that once gave him warmth and teaching now seemed to be severing the relationship between them.
Suddenly, a burst of hurried footsteps broke the silence, accompanied by an urgent call: "Uncle, I misunderstood, the truth of the matter is not like this!"
Everyone's attention was drawn to the sudden sound. They turned around and saw Jiang Zhong and his three companions coming into view. Among them, Xiao Fei and Xiao Gang had transformed into majestic armored warriors. One on the left and one on the right, they firmly restrained a Netherworld Demon - Shafenta.
"This... is unbelievable!" Qiao Shefei was shocked, his eyes full of disbelief.
"How could it be you, Shafenta!"
The three of them approached steadily, and Jiang Zhong's voice was steady and powerful: "Now, please explain, what is going on?"
Upon hearing this, Xiaogang looked at Xiaofei in tacit understanding, then threw Shafenta heavily to the ground. Shafenta let out a painful howl and tried to struggle to escape.
But Xiaogang had already seen through the situation and stepped hard on his abdomen with such force that Shafenta was unable to move and completely lost the power to resist.
At this moment, Jiang Zhong's eyes suddenly became sharp, as if he had noticed something. He suddenly turned to the side and shouted sternly: "And you, stop hiding, come out!"
"Who?!" Everyone was startled and looked in the direction of the voice.
"Show yourself!" Jiang Zhong urged again, his tone leaving no room for doubt.
Soon, two figures slowly came into everyone's sight. One was the master's beloved son, Xiaodong, and the other was Qiao Shefei's unforgettable ex-lover, Yueyue.
“It’s you guys!”
Qiao Shefei's voice was filled with shock and complex emotions. The sudden appearance of this scene undoubtedly made the already confusing situation even more complicated.
......
"I... I confess." Shafenta's eyes were full of fear. He pointed at Xiaodong with a trembling finger and said to Qiao Shefei,
"It's him. He's the mastermind behind this. He wants to frame you and force you to leave the barber shop."
"So, he took advantage of me." There was a hint of bitterness and helplessness in Shafenta's words.
Upon hearing this, Qiao Shefei's eyes widened and his pupils suddenly shrank. Countless fragments flashed through his mind quickly, and he quickly connected all the clues.
As the most intelligent and perceptive of the three captains, he quickly saw through a corner of the truth.
He looked at Xiaodong in disbelief, his voice low and heavy: "It's you!"
Xiao Dong's face suddenly changed when he heard this, and he quickly denied it: "You are talking nonsense! How could I possibly associate with such a monster?"
He looked at his father anxiously, trying to seek understanding and support, "Dad, you have to believe me, I was wronged!"
However, Jiang Zhong's eyes were cold. He slowly raised the Shura Armor Summoner in his hand and activated its unique backtracking function.
As a burst of light flashed, clear scenes emerged in front of the eyes of several people - that was the scene of Xiaodong and several unidentified people conspiring and planning. The evidence was conclusive and irrefutable.
"Facts speak louder than words." Jiang Zhong's voice was calm and powerful. He stared at Xiao Dong, his eyes full of disappointment and heartache. "Now, do you have anything else to say?"
......
"You unfilial son! Do you still want to keep quibbling?!" The shop owner's eyes widened and he pointed at Xiaodong and scolded him, his voice full of disappointment and anger.
Xiao Dong was filled with resentment, gritting his teeth and cursing, but he had no other choice but to let the situation develop. He knew very well that his excuses were useless at this moment.
At this moment, Qiao Shefei's gaze was as cold as ice as he shot towards Shafenta, and the murderous aura that permeated his body made people shudder. "Shafenta, why do you do this?!"
His voice was low and powerful, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth.
Facing Qiao Shefei's questioning, Shafenta was not afraid at all. Instead, he replied with an attitude of "I am thinking about you": "Of course, it is to enable you, the excellent captain, to return to our ranks as soon as possible!"
"Let me return to the team?" Qiao Shefei sneered, his eyes full of disdain. "So, this is what you call 'good intentions'? Using the fate of innocent people as a bargaining chip to force me?"
"I have to obey the general's orders." Shafenta explained, but his tone lacked confidence.
"The general's order?!" Qiao Shefei was furious. "But when did the general ever say that he would sacrifice innocent people to achieve his goal?! What's the difference between your behavior and those of the crazy thugs?!!"
He clenched his fists, his anger almost overflowing from his chest, he felt deep disgust and anger towards Shafenta and the conspiracy behind them.
Shafenta sneered, his voice full of unquestionable determination: "The general has ordered! As long as Captain Qiao Shefei can fully recognize his identity and return to our ranks, any means will be spared!"
"Bullshit! You are so crazy that you have abandoned even the most basic conscience and morality!"
Qiao Shefei gnashed his teeth and angrily retorted, but there was a hint of powerlessness in his voice that could not be ignored. Because he knew that what Shafenta said was true, and his hands were indeed stained with blood in the past, and that was a past that could not be erased.
Shafenta's laughter became even more arrogant: "Hahahahahahaha!!! Captain Qiao Shefei, stop deceiving yourself. Who among us in the Netherworld Legion didn't walk out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood? Have you forgotten that the number of those innocent souls who died because of you is much greater than just a few innocent people like me!"
Qiao Shefei's face turned pale, his fists clenched, his nails almost digging into his palms, but he could not refute this cruel fact. As a member of the Netherworld Army, he was indeed burdened with countless sins.
At this moment, Jiang Zhong's calm voice broke the silence: "Well, it seems that things have been made very clear. Then, it's time to end it all."
He turned to Xiao Fei and Xiao Gang and ordered, "I'll leave this Nether Demon to you two to deal with!"
"Okay!" Xiao Fei and Xiao Gang answered in unison, their eyes flashing with eagerness. Because they hadn't had enough fun fighting at the power plant before, they had long been unhappy with Shafenta, and now they finally had the chance to finish him off themselves.
Before everyone could react, Xiao Fei and Xiao Gang had already acted quickly, grabbing Shafenta from the left and right and dragging him aside.
"No! What are you doing?!"
Shafenta yelled in fear, but it was no use. Under the joint attack of the two, he was quickly beaten back to his original form - a string of three-dimensional genetic codes flashing with strange light.
The storm finally came to an end temporarily. However, for Qiao Shefei, the inner struggle and pain were far from over. He knew that he had to face the past in order to find the way to the future.
