Chapter 390: A True Killing? Forcibly Coming to a Conclusion for Ye Fan, Without Allowing Any Refusal?
Shen Nanfei's martial arts prowess, from the surface, seemed to be suppressed within the Martial Venerable Realm!
But in reality, Shen Nanfei's strength was around that of a Martial Emperor Fourth Grade!
However, this was still within Ye Fan's control range!
Ye Fan had already released his perception and used the Devil's Pupil a moment ago, wanting to see if Shen Nanfei's appearance was a disguise.
Unexpectedly for Ye Fan, even after using the Devil's Pupil, he still couldn't detect anything unusual on Shen Nanfei's face.
Shen Nanfei's visage seemed to be covered by a layer of flowing light, but his appearance was real? It wasn't someone impersonating Shen Nanfei?
It was precisely because of this that all of Ye Fan's previous speculations were overturned!
Previously, from the video provided by the Five Poisons Child, Ye Fan saw Shen Nanfei personally attacking his third brother, Ye Lingjun, and coupled with what Shen Mange had said about one body hosting another soul, Ye Fan thought Shen Nanfei had been impersonated.
But now that Shen Nanfei's appearance was authentic, things had become complicated.
Could it be that Shen Nanfei truly intended to kill his own younger brother?
Ye Fan decided to keep watching!
"No! Dad!" Just as Shen Nanfei's battle saber was about to strike Shen Nanpeng in the chest, Shen Mange by Ye Fan's side began to scream, "That's Uncle Three, have you gone mad?"
Shen Mange truly couldn't understand; in recent years her father, acting like a madman, began to deny all relations. Was he truly going to kill even his own younger brother?
"Mange!"
Ye Fan reached out and grabbed Shen Mange, transmitting a bit of strength into her wrist, "Don't be scared! I'm here!"
Behind Ye Fan, Yu Qiang, Wang Fugui, Guo Li, and others all had their hands on the hilts of their sabers, ready to strike at Ye Fan's command.
One meter!
Two feet!
One foot!
Ten centimeters!
...
Ye Fan opened his Devil's Pupil, staring intently at Shen Nanfei's actions.
Although Shen Nanfei's movements seemed very swift to outsiders, under Ye Fan's Devil's Pupil, they appeared like slow-motion playback.
Shen Nanfei's blade edge had already touched Shen Nanpeng's skin, piercing a small cut from which beads of blood had started to emerge!
But there was no sign of Shen Nanfei's hand movements slowing down, and from the tip of the saber, blue toxin was spreading.
Huh?
Seeing this, Ye Fan's brows furrowed!
Was he planning to actually kill?
The point of Shen Nanfei's saber was aimed right at Shen Nanpeng's heart, and with those toxins, if the blade plunged in, it would truly be the end of Shen Nanpeng's life!
Ye Fan was somewhat perplexed, was Shen Nanfei truly intending for Shen Nanpeng to forever remain silent?
There must be an issue!
Although he couldn't yet understand the reason, the priority was to save the person first!
So, Ye Fan made his move!
Activating the Teleportation Trait, Ye Fan's body appeared in front of Shen Nanfei in the blink of an eye, grabbing hold of Shen Nanfei's arm, "Uncle, this is your Uncle Three. There's no need for killing, right? If there's any misunderstanding between you, we can just talk it out!"
While speaking, Ye Fan reached out to touch Shen Nanpeng's body, and the Inheritance energy within him quickly neutralized the toxins in Shen Nanpeng's body, while also nourishing and cultivating his meridians.
In just an instant, Shen Nanpeng found that the injuries from which he was previously on the verge of death had largely healed.
Shen Nanpeng, who had been despairing and waiting for death, opened his eyes in shock, lifting his head to look at Ye Fan, his pupils filled with confusion.
Wasn't it said that the young master of the Ye Family was a fool?
Although he had awoken afterward, it was said that he killed everything in sight.
But now, it seemed not to be the case!
Had Ye Fan saved her?
Maybe, she wouldn't have to die today, and there might still be a chance for things to take a turn for the better!
His actions being thwarted, Shen Nanfei's facial muscles twitched, "This damn thing, he must be killed today! Otherwise, the Shen family won't be able to explain to Young Master Ye!"
Shen Nanfei increased the force in his hand, attempting to forcibly press the battle saber down!
Martial Master Venerable!
Martial Emperor First Rank!
Martial Emperor Second Grade!
...
In a matter of mere seconds, Shen Nanfei had elevated his strength to the Martial Emperor level, trying to force the battle saber through Shen Nanpeng's heart.
However, Ye Fan's wrist was like steel, rigidly static in its place, as if anchored in the void.
Shen Nanfei was utterly unable to budge!
Huh?
After activating the strength of a Martial Emperor Fourth Rank, Shen Nanfei's face finally changed when he realized he still couldn't move Ye Fan.
Ye Fan's strength was actually this fearsome, already surpassing his own by so much?
This is going to be tough!
"Forget it, uncle, don't kill him!" Ye Fan's face still carried a slight smile, neither red in the face nor hurried in heart, without the slightest appearance of strain!
Shen Nanfei adjusted his emotions, frowning as he said, "Young Master Ye, what do you mean? The Shen family is implicated in the assassination plot against the third son of the Ye family, and we must give an explanation to Young Master Ye. Don't you intend to accept Mr. Shen's explanation?"
"An explanation! Naturally, there must be one... However, the truth of the matter hasn't been made clear, to kill someone rashly like this isn't proper! I won't miss punishing a bad person, but I also don't want to wrong a good person!" Ye Fan stared sharply at Shen Nanfei, forcibly taking back the dagger in Shen Nanfei's hand.
Shen Nanfei's face began to look displeased, his expression turning cold, "Young Master Ye! Aren't you being a bit too meddlesome? Whether to kill the third brother or not is the Shen family's internal affair, and since Young Master Ye isn't a member of the Shen family, it doesn't seem like you have the right to interfere, does it?"
Shen Nanfei was already becoming impatient!
He had just glanced over Shen Nanpeng's condition, who clearly was about to breathe his last just a moment ago, but why did it seem like Shen Nanpeng had come back to life in the blink of an eye?
Shen Nanpeng absolutely couldn't speak!
If Shen Nanpeng spoke, then many secrets would be fully exposed.
Therefore, no matter what, Shen Nanpeng had to be killed today!
"Uncle is wrong! Mange has already announced she will marry me, making her my wife, Ye Fan. What concerns Mange, concerns me, Ye Fan! Since Mange is a member of the Shen family, naturally I have to take care of Shen family matters!" Ye Fan gave a devilish smile, "Mange really doesn't want her third uncle to die, so naturally, as her husband, I have to speak for my wife. That makes sense, doesn't it?"
"You…" Ye Fan's reasoning left Shen Nanfei speechless, as he turned his head and fiercely glared at Shen Mange.
"Hmph! Young Master Ye, it's true that Mange had a marriage arrangement with the Ye family, but that was with the third son of the Ye family, Ye Lingyu. Now that Ye Lingyu has perished, the marriage agreement between Mange and the Ye family is naturally void!"
"As for Mange announcing at the Ye family's funeral that she will marry Young Master Ye, that was just an impulsive decision, a remark made in good faith. You shouldn't take it seriously!" Shen Nanfei's countenance had already begun to darken with a firm resolve to force this explanation on Ye Fan today.
"No! Dad, I wasn't being impulsive, I considered it seriously... Although Lingyu is dead, I want to be with Ye Fan! He is the husband I desire!" Shen Mange, seeing Ye Fan saving her third uncle at the last moment, finally had her hanging heart relax.
"Nonsense! Shen Mange, I let your foolish antics pass before, but you still want to be foolish now? Do you really want to drag the Shen family into the abyss?"
Shen Nanfei sternly chided Shen Mange, "Go! Immediately go take a bath and get ready to meet the elder ancestor; he has been waiting for you for a long time!"
"Ah? I don't want to meet the elder ancestor... Dad, I'm your own daughter, have you gone mad?" Shen Mange's face changed drastically, every cell in her body seemingly resisting the idea of meeting the elder ancestor.
Huh?
What's this situation, just meeting an elder ancestor, and Mange is so fearful, so resistant?
