Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 3158 (Three Thousand One Hundred and Fifty Eight) Very Familiar

“We didn’t really take it seriously before. We always thought that the guy who claimed to be very familiar with the clan leader just wanted to ask us for money,” said the man with messy hair.

"Didn't you ask someone to test it at that time?" Tie Hongyan asked.

“They just wanted me to test them.” said the man with messy hair.

"Did they believe that you could cast spells at that time?" Tie Hongyan asked.

“They should have believed it at the time.” The man with messy hair said, “Then some other things happened. I guess they didn’t believe it in their hearts, but no one said it out loud.”

Tie Hongyan asked: "You told them before that you know magic?"

"Yes, Young Chief, I did say that a long time ago." The man with messy hair said, "At that time, it was because I wanted to get some money. Anyway, I got it later."

"You said that later on they no longer believed that you could cast magic, then why didn't they say it out loud?" Tie Hongyan asked.

"Something happened. They told the tribe leader about it when they thought I knew magic, and the tribe leader also thought I knew magic." The man with messy hair said, "They told the tribe leader that I knew magic purely for their own benefit. Later, I wanted to explain to the tribe leader that it was a misunderstanding, but I couldn't say it. If I did, I would die, and they would die too. We all wanted to live, so there was nothing I could do."

"Does the clan leader believe that you can cast spells?" Tie Hongyan asked.

"I guess the clan leader believed it. They told him that I only knew a few spells." The man with messy hair said. "You said you think they no longer believed that you knew spells. Why is that?" Tie Hongyan asked.

“Because several things happened in succession, they asked me to use magic to solve them, but I couldn’t.” said the man with messy hair.

"They just said that they didn't know you couldn't cast any magic before, and that you lied to them. How do you know that they didn't believe in their hearts that you could cast any magic?" Tie Hongyan asked.

"They sometimes let it slip, and even whispered that I was a liar. Although they never told them directly what I had done to deceive them, every time they called me a liar, they would gesture the movements I had performed before." The man with messy hair said, "I always felt that they knew something, but they never dared to say it. After all, they were the ones who told the tribe leader that I could cast spells."

"Apart from the clan leader and you, does anyone else think he can cast spells?" Tie Hongyan asked.

“I’m not sure, but there’s someone who definitely knows that there’s someone among us who can cast spells.” The man with messy hair said, “When we rejected the request of the man who claimed to be very familiar with the clan leader, they said that there’s someone among us who can cast spells and might be able to see the invisible circle. They didn’t say that the person who can cast spells was me, and the man who claimed to be very familiar with the clan leader left without asking any questions. After that, no one mentioned the aura of Rong Mangtai to us again.”

Tie Hongyan looked at the Tiecang people holding whips and asked, "Tell me the truth, did you believe he could use magic at that time?"

Those people just looked at each other, no one dared to say anything. They knew that if they had long since stopped believing that the man from Tiecang with messy hair could not cast spells, then they would have been deceiving the clan leader, and if the clan leader knew about this, they would all be dead.

"You won't say anything?" Tie Hongyan asked, "It seems like you don't want me to consider letting you go?"
