Feng Ling slowly loosened his grip, watching Wei Chang's body slump to the ground. He sighed softly and said, "You're free now."

After speaking, he expressionlessly closed Wei Chang's eyes, laid the body flat, covered it with a thin blanket, and left the room.

The next morning, Wei Chang's body was discovered. Feng Ling was furious and spent a large number of contribution points to put a bounty on the killer. For a time, the mine slaves were in a state of panic, both tempted by the reward and fearful of meeting the same fate as Wei Chang.

Although the mine was short-handed, the investigation was cursory, and naturally, no results were found. In the end, it was dismissed as an internal conflict among the mine slaves.
