Chapter 37: 037 Tongue of Right and Wrong_1
Duge had always ranked first in the simulation ground, and it was he who first detected the Iron Palm Gang’s night raid at Prosperous Jade Building. Later, he backstabbed the Feng Family, forcefully seized control of the Iron Palm Gang, and relied on his own strength to maintain the people’s spirit and justice in Luyang City, his attributes must have increased a lot.
Now, his five senses were incredibly sharp, even if he closed his eyes, relying on listening to discern locations, he could know the surroundings; on Earth, being a little Superman wouldn’t be a problem at all.
The people from sects like the Beggar’s Gang and Mount Tai all had their distinctive characteristics.
Sooner or later, he would have to deal with them, and Duge kept an eye on those mixing in the crowd, listening to their arrangements clearly, which also fell within his expectations.
What surprised him was that among various noisy sounds, he actually heard Feng Zhong talking to himself.
Goodness gracious!
You backstab your own and don’t run, yet you dare to come and watch the excitement?
Are you really like those criminals who love returning to the crime scene to admire their work?
It’s one thing to look, but if you stay silent and hidden, I really might not be able to find you; yet you talk to yourself, truly a chatterbox!
Trying to reap the benefits of a fisherman?
Wishful thinking!
Duge casually glanced towards Feng Zhong’s location, and immediately recognized him wearing a bamboo hat.
But?
Watching the commoners rushing over clamoring about their grievances, the Flying Dragon Guard in a flurry trying to capture suspects, and then looking at Qiu Feilong and others, who were eyeing him covetously…
Duge fell into hesitation, the situation at the scene was too complicated.
Once he let go of Qiu Yuanlang, the hard-won stable situation might collapse…
But not capturing Feng Zhong, who knows when he might show up again next time?
Judging by his tone, he seemed to have awakened some sort of advanced skill as well.
Capture!
Within just a moment, Duge made his decision. Once this chance passed, there might not be another; whether his keywords could be used or not was besides the point, sparing the tiger only to return to the mountain meant endless troubles.
Duge turned to Wang San, who was still dissecting Liu Heigou’s heart to see if it contained any concern for him, and called out, “Wang San, come over and handle this case for me, I’m going to find a place to relieve myself.”
The breaths of Qiu Feilong, Liu Cheng, and others stopped; the opportunity had arrived.
Wang San didn’t suspect a thing, carrying a bloodstained knife, holding a still-beating heart in one hand, wordlessly walked over to take over from Duge.
He placed the knife against Qiu Yuanlang’s neck, and then carefully set the heart on the table, “Little darling, you wait here for a bit, I’ll keep you company shortly…”
Duge, wearing a smile, watched Qiu Feilong and the others, slowly withdrew the sword from Qiu Yuanlang’s neck, and warned, “Don’t act rashly. Wang San isn’t as accurate as me, but his moves are ruthless. If you provoke him, the old gang leader’s head, fingers, and whatnot might end up as his trophies.”
Wang San gave a sinister smile, licking the corner of his mouth in cooperation.
“Everyone, please calm down, if you have any grievances, tell the official above. He might look scary, but he has a kind heart. His thunderous methods are only aimed at the wicked; he’s the Guardian Vajra of the Peacekeeping Gang.” Duge used a soft tone to soothe the restless citizens, while he walked towards the edge of the crowd.
Qiu Feilong made a gesture to Liu Cheng, who, along with several Incense Masters, stealthily blended into the ranks of the Peacekeeping Gang.
Duge’s Rear Eye clearly saw the actions of the few, he scoffed disdainfully, leaning towards Feng Zhong’s direction.
Duge did not walk straight toward him; Feng Zhong calmly continued to watch the show, Wang San’s attention was caught by a group of complaining citizens, not seeing the movements of Liu Cheng and the others, but he saw it all clearly. He deduced what kind of keyword Feng Qi represented from his actions.
Logically speaking, “protector” is a support type of keyword, and advanced skills should not suit combat; yet, he was able to capture Qiu Yuanlang single-handedly, which was abnormal.
Knowing the enemy and knowing yourself, you can fight a hundred battles without disaster.
Duge didn’t disturb Feng Zhong, and walked straight out of the crowd. As people’s gazes followed him, Duge turned back and said with a smile, “Heavenly Demon is taking a leak, do you all want to watch?”
…
“No, no.”
“Please urinate at your leisure, Heavenly Demon. May it bring long life and prosperity, may it cause heaven and earth to shatter…”
“The pretty little wife may catch your eye, but once you’ve seen the Heavenly Demon, you could go home and father a bouncing baby boy.”
…
Perhaps it was Duge’s gentle tone, or the fact that he stood as an adversary to the Iron Palm Gang, but the commoners seemed much bolder when speaking to him. They didn’t treat him like a Heavenly Demon at all, joking and laughing all around.
But as much as they joked, most of them still turned away.
Feng Zhong also turned his head back, having met Duge before. At such close range, he feared recognition by Feng Qi.
But just as he turned around.
A gust of wind swept past him from behind. He had no time to react before his neck was grasped, followed quickly by the cold touch of a blade against his throat, and Feng Qi’s voice chimed, “Got you.”
A chill ran down Feng Zhong’s spine, and he closed his eyes in agony.
It’s over!
This guy’s keyword is definitely not ‘peacekeeping.’ The peacekeeping skills could never have such a sharp offensive move.
Whoosh!
The crowd scattered.
Liu Cheng and the others had planned to ambush Duge when he let his guard down but instead witnessed Feng Qi ambushing someone else.
The burst of speed Feng Qi displayed instantly had changed their faces.
In a blur, Duge had already moved right behind that person; not even the fastest qinggong in the Martial Worlds could be this quick!
At this moment, they suddenly understood why even the Gang Leader with his excellent martial skills couldn’t avoid Feng Qi’s sneak attack!

At such close range, with such fast speed, probably only Qiao He, the Martial Saint of Mount Tai, could avoid it!
With that kind of speed, could they really plan to ambush Feng Qi?
It would be more like a suicide mission…
…
Duge didn’t kill him right there and then, which sparked a sliver of hope in Feng Zhong’s heart. He quickly said, “Brother Qi, let’s talk this through. You need helpers, right? I can join you. I promise to be even more loyal than Wang San. Together, the three of us could eliminate everyone else…”
“What’s your keyword?” Duge asked.
“Instigate. My keyword is instigate.” Having witnessed Feng Qi’s tactics against Wang San at the Prosperous Jade Building, and having betrayed Feng Qi once before, Feng Zhong was desperate for survival. He whispered his keyword without hesitation, eager to prove his worth, and even volunteered more information, “My awakened skill is the Tongue of Right and Wrong. Any rumor I spread will pique the interest of others and make them investigate further. That’s why Qiu Yuanlang, sly as he is, came to check the Prosperous Jade Building immediately after seeing my message. Otherwise, why would Qiu Yuanlang, so cunning and shrewd, easily believe in something as elusive as the Heavenly Demon?”
Instigate: To repeatedly twirl or fiddle with fingers; to show off; to brag; to incite.
As the meaning of instigate flashed through Duge’s mind, his lips twitched—a sickly cute character, a gossipmonger, and a glutton. Are these the best keywords this simulation can arrange?
Compared to them, his keyword ‘peacekeeping’ appeared to be a sterling choice indeed.
If not.
With just ‘backstab,’ he wouldn’t be able to cause such major turmoil.
“What role could you possibly play?” Duge asked in a low voice.
“I can lure enemies.” Facing a life-or-death situation, Feng Zhong thought fast and said, “Brother Qi, my Tongue of Right and Wrong can quickly create turmoil throughout the land. Your keyword is ‘peacekeeping.’ The more chaotic it becomes, the better you can utilize your keyword!”
“That’s not very useful! I can create chaos in the land all by myself,” Duge said. “It’s safer just to kill you. If you could betray me once, you could do it a second time…”
“Brother Qi, it is useful, very useful. The chaos you create is uncontrollable and draws all the attention to you. My Tongue of Right and Wrong can adjust the pace, keeping the chaos within a range that we can handle.” Feng Zhong insisted, “As for betrayal, you’ve wronged me there. Back then, we didn’t know each other. Who wouldn’t want to get rid of as many competitors as possible? It’s human nature, it’s the rule of the simulation…”
Before Duge could respond.
Sudden commotion erupted in the area where judgments were being made, and the bold citizens who were trying to profit from their grievances began screaming and fleeing in terror.
Right away, Wang San’s hysterical voice rose, “You old man, I loved you so much, why did you do this to me, why betray me? Speak up, why don’t you speak…”
