Chapter 775 Murder on the Plane—Human Nature Fails the Test

That evening, Xu Xingguang left Wuyuan Town and arrived in Golden Gate City before nightfall, catching the last flight to Medicine King City.

Late at night, as the plane was about to enter the airspace of Medicine King City, it suddenly started raining heavily.

Xu Xingguang’s seat was by the window. Through the round glass window, he looked down and saw lightning flashing like claws in the ink-black eerie clouds.

The thunderstorm was massive, reportedly the first of the summer.

The powerful airflow caused the aircraft to constantly bump, and the little girl next to Xu Xingguang just returned from the restroom, staggering back to her seat beside Xu Xingguang.

Xu Xingguang noticed the girl’s face was somewhat pale, and the other passengers on the same flight were too scared to make a sound, thinking their reactions were not normal.

Turbulence due to stormy weather is quite normal, as the aviation industry of the Divine Martial Realm develops rapidly, it is the preferred transportation for travelers.

They’re probably not flying for the first time, why are they so nervous?

At this moment, the voice of the flight attendant sounded in the cabin: "Hello passengers, due to sudden weather changes, our flight is encountering strong turbulence, please sit tight and fasten your seatbelt, and passengers with children, please calm your children..."

The flight attendant broadcasted twice and started again after a few minutes.

Xu Xingguang noticed the young girl’s forehead was sweating. She magically pulled out a mint candy from her canvas bag.

This was a mint candy she refined with Ice Crystal Grass; eating one can calm one down and keep one clear-headed.

"Want a candy?" Xu Xingguang offered the mint candy to the girl.

The girl seemed to be about sixteen or seventeen, her charming face was taut, her eyes tightly closed, and sweat dripped down her eyelashes.

Hearing the neighboring sister’s voice, the girl opened a slit in her left eye, glanced down at the candy Xu Xingguang was offering, and after a bit of surprise, hoarsely thanked her and put the candy in her mouth.

As the candy entered her mouth, the cool sensation spread throughout her oral cavity, and the girl’s chaotic, tense mind instantly cleared significantly, her posture slightly relaxed.

"I feel much better, thank you." The girl was finally able to speak normally.

The plane was still shaking but not as violently as before; however, the girl still tightly grasped the seatbelt.

"Are you afraid of flying?" Xu Xingguang was just concerned about the girl’s condition, so he asked out of curiosity.

But the girl’s response surprised her greatly.

The girl said, "Don’t you know about the Flying Killers?"

"What?" Xu Xingguang genuinely hadn’t heard of this.

"Now there’s a group called the Flying Killers Organization, they’re a bunch of Super Power Users who can control natural elements, like some with wind-related superpowers and lightning-related superpowers. These people come from all over, and for a common belief, they formed the Flying Killers Organization."

Xu Xingguang understood the nature of this organization, asking the girl, "What’s their goal?"

The girl moved her pale lips, speaking cautiously, "To eliminate those who waste the Divine Martial Realm’s food resources."

Xu Xingguang was stunned.

She turned her head, looking at the lightning flickering in the dark clouds outside, lost in thought.

The plane entered the airspace of Medicine King City again, encountering strong turbulence, and suddenly went into a vertical dive.

"Ah!"

Screams continuously filled the airplane, and the girl beside Xu Xingguang grabbed the seatbelt even tighter.

After descending about a hundred meters, the plane narrowly regained stability.

The pilot’s skills were not bad, stabilizing the aircraft, then maneuvering through the lightning-filled dark clouds, rising back into the high altitude.

They were already above Medicine King City’s airport, but due to the heavy rain below, the cloudy sky prevented immediate landing, leaving them circling overhead or considering diverting to a city without rain for landing.

Passengers on the plane noticed it was circling, realizing the weather was too harsh for descent, feeling somewhat anxious.

Xu Xingguang suddenly said, "Before I set out, I checked Medicine King City’s weather. It showed clear skies for the next three days."

The Divine Martial Realm’s technological development has reached a point where daily weather can be analyzed with high accuracy.

Since the meteorological bureau stated that Medicine King City would have clear skies for the next three days, it must be clear skies.

Therefore, this rain is not a natural thunderstorm.

"Yes, if a thunderstorm occurs, our flights usually get canceled. This rain must be the work of those Flying Killers."
