Chapter 1052: Chapter 1050: Blind Eye (16) Chapter 1052: Chapter 1050: Blind Eye (16) I was at a loss for words.
Faced with Fu Qian’s answer, Ice clenched her teeth ever so slightly, but ultimately, she turned to the Sage Old Master, hoping he would make the final decision.
“Was he behaving normally at that time?”
The latter’s control of his facial expressions was quite on point, as he simply gave Fu Qian a deep look.
“Everything was normal.”
“So why were you concerned with whether he was behaving normally or not?”
However, before the Sage Old Master could comment, it was Charlotte who suddenly asked.
Excellent!
It seemed we were finally no longer driven by hormones.
Fu Qian glanced at Charlotte, whose eyes were sharp. Although she was questioning him, she didn’t seem overly emotional.
Clearly, Charlotte had asked this question because she realized the suspiciousness of her own actions.
As expected of an apprentice Saint Fighter, she had spirit.
“There’s no room for any mistakes in this operation; I just wanted to be sure everyone was in normal condition.”
Fu Qian blinked, his gaze unfazed by the intense scrutiny.
The most abnormal one here… is you…
For a moment, everyone quietly criticized him, but, unfortunately, it was obvious that the Sage Old Master held the final say.
“We still have enough time, but we’d better hurry up.”
Faced with the increasingly suspicious Fu Qian, the latter showed considerable tolerance. He not only gestured for them to go back and look but didn’t even demand that Fu Qian lead the way.
…
Under greater subjective initiative, the team, moving faster than before, caught a glimpse of something astonishing in the darkness.
“What’s going on with that guy’s leg…”
And facing what was still an undead wearing the Golden Sacred Garment, Charlotte couldn’t hide her shock and didn’t consult with the others before charging forward.
Of course, when the rest arrived shortly after, they too halted more abruptly than before.
It was apparent that they hadn’t caught up, and Charlotte, at 120% readiness, realized even faster than before that they should avoid being lured deeper by the enemy.
“The figure looks like an undead, and it’s wearing our gear. Every trace is identical.”
Standing in place, waiting for everyone else to catch up, Charlotte quickly spoke.
“However, it’s different from its kind; it seems to be avoiding us, and it’s very fast. I’m not sure if we should keep chasing.”
“You’re doing the right thing.”
After listening intently and watching the dark path from whence they came, the Sage nodded and then, after a brief moment of thought, surprisingly turned to look at Fu Qian.
“What do you think, Left Hand?”
This guy… Even the Sage is asking for his opinion?
“It doesn’t look like an attack took place.”
While everyone else was somewhat confused by the Old Master’s action, Fu Qian confidently stroked his chin and gave his assessment without showing any signs of timidity.
“Not an attack… You’re not suggesting that, in the past thirty seconds, one of our own silently turned into an undead?”
It was Brother Shi Gaozhi who was quick to respond, in a conversation that seemed eerily familiar.
But at that point, the disparity in persuasiveness due to status was evident.
When Fu Qian voiced the same opinion, Brother Shi Gaozhi might have understood, but his first reaction was to question the unreasonable aspects of it.
“Hard to say.”
Fu Qian merely shrugged, as if to suggest he was just offering a perspective.
“Perhaps the mutation started in the brain first?”
“… Have you ever considered checking your own brain first?”
Charlotte instinctively voiced her doubts, but was immediately interrupted.
“I agree with Left Hand’s view.”
The Sage, looking at Fu Qian, spoke expressionlessly.
“Although we lost track and can’t make an accurate judgment, I’m inclined to believe that was one of our own. So we needn’t worry too much about the threat of an ambush.”
“But…”
Shi Gaozhi visibly disagreed with this view, which the Sage unexpectedly supported, prompting him to step forward.
At that instant, Fu Qian couldn’t help but admire Shi Gaozhi’s action.
According to prior developments, Shi Gaozhi’s perfectly natural reaction would have been a mere facade, with the Sage losing half his head in the next moment.
The only problem was, this time Shi Gaozhi was looking not at the Old Master, but at Fu Qian.
…
Had the timeline unknowingly shifted?
Was the target of this trap actually himself?
In the judgment of the Holy Grail, was his threat greater than that of the Sage Old Master?
This was more to my liking!
Feeling finally recognized, Fu Qian felt as if his body was filled with strength under this encouragement.
“I still think it’s a bit difficult to–”
The next moment, speaking to the Sage but staring at Fu Qian, Shi Gaozhi’s jaw was hit hard with an uppercut.
The rest of the challenge was forcibly swallowed down.
The Golden Gauntlets, even without utilizing Extraordinary Power, were exceptionally lethal.
And in the excellent feedback from the strike, Fu Qian faintly saw a few white teeth mixed with blood, as well as the Deep Red Ray tearing through the darkness.
Unfortunately, forced to gaze at the starry sky below, the ray ultimately exploded at the top of their heads.
What is this guy’s background? There’s no need to resort to hitting, even if there are disagreements– Wait, what is this?
The dramatic change right before their eyes astonished the onlookers even more.
They had thought Left Hand was indeed as Charlotte had guessed, losing his mind. Could it be that Shi Gaozhi had lost his too?
Using abilities unapproved, and the target was even one of their own?
Of course, the most crucial question was, how did Left Hand know he’d gone mad?
“Now I’m 100% certain that the one we saw just now was one of our own…”
Fortunately for the team members, who didn’t have to speculate for long, Fu Qian quickly addressed their confusion.
His tone cold and eyes sharp, Fu Qian gently touched the blood-stained gloves, looking down at Shi Gaozhi, who was struggling to rise.
“Because the living example is right in front of us.”
“What do you mean?”
Powerless to defend himself, Shi Gaozhi was questioned on his behalf by Charlotte, who was on full alert.
“I think you’ve really lost it!”
“I wanted to ask if you all were blind.”
Fu Qian laughed coldly, pointing at Shi Gaozhi.
“This one has been turning into an undead right beside us, and you haven’t noticed?”
Shi Gaozhi, turning into an undead? Could it be true?
Charlotte and Ice, who were closest, reflexively took a step back upon hearing this.
However, after looking carefully at Shi Gaozhi, who was slowly getting up with the support of the wall, they couldn’t spot any signs of undead.
“Are you sure, Left Hand?”
Ice couldn’t help but ask first.
“Is it not obvious to you?”
Fu Qian appeared even more surprised than she was.
“Idio… t, it’s obvious… like you…”

Before Ice could respond when she was full of questions, Shi Gaozhi managed a difficult utterance.
But it looked as though the punch had successfully caused him to bite his tongue, making him difficult to understand.
“Still not admitting it!”
Fortunately, Fu Qian understood him and immediately sneered.
“If you weren’t becoming a mad undead, why would you try to attack me?”
