Chapter 559: Some Truths
Maitreya nodded slightly, thinking Li An's words seemed to have some merit: "Hmm, perhaps we can listen to his explanation first."
Coral, however, remained vigilant: "Who knows if what he says is true or false; it is best to be cautious."
Just as everyone was at a stalemate, the Demon Wolf Clan launched another attack. This time, their assault was more frantic, as if they intended to end the battle quickly.
Li An's heart tightened; he knew they could not remain in this stalemate. He must find a way to resolve the problem as soon as possible; otherwise, not only would Guo Yao be in danger, but the misunderstanding between him and Inuyasha and the others would deepen.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck Li An's mind; he thought of his Golden Finger. He quickly activated the Golden Finger to analyze the Demon Wolf Clan's attack.
With the help of the Golden Finger, Li An soon discovered the true reason behind the Demon Wolf Clan's 300 attacks. It turned out that all of this was Naraku's scheme. To sow discord between the Demon Wolf Clan and Inuyasha and the others, Naraku deliberately made the Demon Wolf Clan mistakenly believe that Guo Yao possessed a gem capable of enhancing demonic power, thereby triggering this conflict.
"I know what is going on!" Li An shouted excitedly. Confidence shone in his eyes, as if he had found the key to cracking this crisis.
Everyone looked at him in surprise. Inuyasha frowned and asked, "What do you know?"
Li An took a deep breath and said, "All of this is Naraku's scheme. To sow discord among us, he deliberately made the Demon Wolf Clan mistakenly believe that Guo Yao possessed a gem capable of enhancing demonic power, which is why the Demon Wolf Clan attacked us."
Hearing this, Ginta's expression changed slightly. Although he was arrogant, he was no fool; he knew that if this was truly Naraku's scheme, then he had been played this time.
"Is what you say true?" Ginta looked coldly at Li An, his eyes filled with suspicion.
Li An nodded and continued, "Not only that, I also discovered the flaws in your attacks. These flaws were deliberately set by Naraku; he simply wants you and Inuyasha and the others to slaughter each other so he can reap the benefits."
Ginta's face turned very ugly; he never expected to be outmaneuvered by Naraku. He clenched his fists in anger and roared, "Damn Naraku, how dare he scheme against me!"
Inuyasha and the others, hearing Li An's words, also showed surprised expressions. They never expected Naraku's scheme to be so sinister.
"It seems we misunderstood you." Inuyasha lowered Tessaiga from his hand; most of his suspicion toward Li An had vanished from his eyes: "However, how did you know all this?"
Li An smiled slightly; he did not answer Inuyasha's question directly but said, "I have my own methods. What is currently most important is that we unite to fight against Naraku together."
Although Ginta was unwilling, he also knew Li An was right. He snorted coldly and said, "Hmph, you win this time. However, next time it won't be so easy!"
Li An smiled; he knew that although Ginta was outwardly unconvinced, he had inwardly acknowledged him. Looking at everyone, he said, "Since the misunderstanding has been cleared up, let us find a way to deal with Naraku together."
Everyone nodded in turn, their eyes filled with determination. In this dangerous Sengoku period, they knew that only by uniting could they defeat their powerful enemy.
