Chapter 1687: The Perfect Cover

Li Yumei lay still in the tent. She was confused and terrified, having no idea what was going to happen after she closed her eyes. She had fallen asleep beside Lu Zhuo many times, but it was different this time. Lu Zhuo had turned into someone she was unfamiliar with. She was more scared the more she thought about it.

Lu Zhuo waited quietly inside the tent. He was fondling Li Yumei, and slowly took off her clothes.

The drug needed a little more time to come into effect. He could slowly enjoy his time in the tent.

Lu Zhuo enjoyed the feeling that he was the only person alive in this world. He could do whatever he pleased. He no longer had to put on a disguise.

A while later, Lu Zhuo buckled his belt back on and left the tent.

The island was deadly quiet, and not even the cries of insects were heard, as if they had all been driven away by Lu Zhuo’s ruthless demeanor.

There were many tents nearby, most of them were still lit, but the Hunters were all lying about on the ground. Not a single one was awake.

Lu Zhuo was very familiar with this Single-Line Island. The island had a cold spring. Every Hunter on the island was most likely going to drink from the spring. The Thousand Islands Lake was a huge lake, but there were not many sources of drinkable water. The Thousand Islands Lake was like a huge steamer basket lately because of the weather, so most people would have the urge to drink the cold water from the spring.

Li Yumei was so dumb. Even until now, she had no idea that she was his accomplice. Lu Zhuo had put a dose of the hypnotizing drug in the water pouches he gave to her!

It was the hypnotic drug that Luo Mian had given him. The Hunters currently on the island could not even tell they were drugged. They would not detect it even with the best devices. After all, it was not really a kind of poison!

Lu Zhuo had purposely chatted with Li Yumei until late at night to ensure that everyone had drunk the water. He even spent some time bidding farewell to her body for the last time. He quickly surveyed the island and discovered that everyone was lying on the ground.

The Foehn Hunter Squad was fast asleep, and the Hunter Group beside them was asleep too. The Hunter Group at the back of the island was not making any sound. The people left on night watch were sleeping like dead pigs, too.

Lu Zhuo went to the back of the island to do a thorough check, using a poisonous wind to further enhance the effects of the drug. He was making sure everyone that drank from the spring was unconscious.

“You unlucky people, I’ll let you sleep for a little longer. I’ll deal with you later,” Lu Zhuo chuckled, glancing at the tent of strangers.

Lu Zhuo returned to the front of the island and noticed a figure staggering along the shore. She did not seem to be drugged heavily.

Lu Zhuo went closer and noticed it was Gu Ying. Her slender yet busty body was swaying slightly. Lu Zhuo immediately felt a strong desire rising within him upon seeing the woman’s delicate appearance, even though he had just vented himself not long ago.

Why did he bother wasting his time and energy on Li Yumei, whom he had played with so many times, when he had a better option?

As a matter of fact, Lu Zhuo was not interested in Li Yumei in the first place, but she had taken the initiative to approach him. She had also forced Gu Ying to leave the party with her little tricks. Lu Zhuo ended up losing his chance to enjoy himself a fine meal!

Lu Zhuo slowly approached Gu Ying and looked at her feeble body.

“Xiao Ying, where are you going? Oh, it’s been years since I last called you that. I haven’t heard you calling me Leader Lu with your sweet voice. You admired me so much when you first joined my group. If Li Yumei didn’t stick her leg between us out of nowhere, perhaps we would be a blessed couple that others are jealous of by now!?” Lu Zhuo went up to Gu Ying and asked with squinting eyes.

“What…what did you do to us!?” Gu Ying was enraged.

The rest of the Foehn Hunter Squad was asleep. Gu Ying had failed to wake them up. She had been on alert throughout the night, but she felt extremely drowsy all of a sudden. She thought she was too worn out over the past few days, but she soon discovered that all the Hunter Groups nearby were fast asleep too.

“Did you not drink from the spring?” Lu Zhuo asked with a smile.

“You poisoned the spring?!” Gu Ying snarled instantly.

“Xiao Ying, you’re indeed a lot smarter than Li Yumei. You’re so cautious that you didn’t even drink from the cold spring, but it doesn’t really matter. Your teammates drank from it, so even their breaths while conversing with you would still make you feel sleepy. You will soon end up just like them, even though you didn’t drink the water,” Lu Zhuo promised.

The drug that Luo Mian gave him stood out by its effects. Even if someone was only drinking from their own water, even conversing with someone that had been drugged at a close distance would make them fall victim to it, too…

It was difficult to resist the drowsiness. Gu Ying was experiencing it firsthand. She could not gather any force, and she could not even cast a single spell.

“What are you trying to do!?” Gu Ying clenched her teeth. She was trying her best not to close her eyes.

“You never knew your place. To be honest, if you weren’t such a busybody and saved this Wu Dong, none of this would have happened. Your teammates and these Hunters are all going to die because of you, HAHAHA!” Lu Zhuo burst out laughing.

“That’s the reason you’re going to kill everyone on the island?” Gu Ying was utterly shocked when she heard Gu Ying’s words.

Everyone on the island had fallen victim to this. Was this Lu Zhuo out of his mind?

“I have to make sure that not even a single drop of water can leak out from here. Think about it; if I only kill Wu Dong, your Foehn Hunter Squad is going to be a huge trouble, so I can only take your Foehn Hunter Squad out too, but if I kill the Foehn Hunter Squad, the Hunter Union will eventually learn about it. Besides, there are so many Hunters on this island, and they have all chatted with you, so they already know why you are here. It’s easy for me to be blamed.

“Therefore, the simplest way is to kill everyone on this island! That way, everyone will just focus on the entire island instead of your Foehn Hunter Squad. They won’t worry about Wu Dong, either, nor would they link your deaths to me. The Thousand Islands Lake has always been dangerous. It’s not impossible that a powerful beast showed up and killed everyone on the island!” Lu Zhuo laughed.

If only the people relevant to a matter were murdered, it was very easy to track down the culprit. However, if a bunch of irrelevant people were involved too, things would be more complicated, since there were four Hunter Groups and a few other Hunters on the island. There were no obvious reasons and motives behind their deaths…

He could even hide the deaths of the Cangjin Hunter Squad and blame it on the tragedy that happened on the Single-Line Island!

Gu Ying was walking unsteadily. The anger in her heart was erupting like a volcano. This Lu Zhuo was going to murder everyone on the island just to cover up his crimes. How twisted was he inside!?
