Chapter 392: You Can Take My Life! But Do You Dare Take My Uncle's Life?
Although Shen Nanfei wanted to step forward to stop him, he was helpless because his own strength was only at the Martial Emperor Fourth Rank!
The powerful pressure from Ye Fan's battle saber made it impossible for Shen Nanfei to take another step forward.
While taking advantage of this gap, Shen Nanpeng, who had just regained his freedom, practically rolled and crawled to Ye Fan's side, starting to speak frantically, "Young Master Ye, thank you for saving my life! The death of Third Young Master Ye really has nothing to do with me... On the day when Third Young Master Ye was attacked, I wasn't even at home..."
"But starting from two days ago, my older brother forcibly detained me, beating me to death and back to life, insisting that I had organized the attack on Third Young Master Ye, but I didn't do it at all. My brother was like a rabid dog; I really don't know what he wants to do..."
Shen Nanpeng, seemingly frightened by Shen Nanfei's beating, dodged continuously while speaking.
And at this moment, Shen Nanfei, standing behind the battle saber, closed his eyes in anger upon hearing Shen Nanpeng's words!
Damn it!
This damned bastard finally opened his mouth.
If I had known this would happen, I would have killed him a few days ago, so when Ye Fan came today, I could just hand over the corpse to Ye Fan.
And now, the plan to frame Shen Nanpeng for the crime has completely fallen apart because of Shen Nanpeng's denial.
"Mange, your uncle truly doesn't know what's gotten into your father? He's acting like a madman, wanting to send you to consummate the marriage with the old ancestor and to have me killed to take the blame. Is he still your biological father?"
Shen Mange, listening to Shen Nanpeng's words, furrowed her brows tightly, looking at Shen Nanfei with a face full of doubt.
Her father's recent actions were indeed too abnormal!
"Uncle! If it wasn't uncle who did it, then why would you want to kill uncle and forcefully give the Ye Family an explanation?" Ye Fan looked at Shen Nanfei with a smile that was not a smile, his heart becoming even more convinced of his previous suspicions.
The attack on his third brother must be related to Shen Nanfei.
However, Ye Fan was unclear whether Shen Nanfei had truly defected to Prince Jin, or if Shen Nanfei was still being impersonated by someone. Perhaps, Shen Nanfei's impersonation techniques were quite clever, and Ye Fan hadn't noticed for the moment.
"Ahem! Young Master Ye, there might be some misunderstanding. It's possible that it really wasn't the third one who did it, but no matter what, Third Young Master Ye's death is connected to the Shen Family, and we must give an explanation to the Ye Family. A life for a life, someone must die, but does it matter who that person is?"
Shen Nanfei was indifferent, not at all panicked by Shen Nanpeng revealing his tactics.
"In the end, as long as the one who dies is a core disciple of the Shen Family! Whether for the Ye Family or the outside world, an explanation will have been provided. Isn't this a perfect solution for everyone? Moreover, although the Shen Family was implicated in the incident of Third Young Master Ye's attack and death, the Shen Family wasn't the main culprit, right? Young Master Ye, why bother with these details?"
Although Shen Nanpeng had spoken up and Shen Nanfei had been briefly flustered, he quickly regained his composure.
He cleared himself of any responsibility with ease!
If one were to consider it hastily, Shen Nanfei's words might seem to make some sense.
As long as the Shen Family provides someone to take the blame, the matter can be considered resolved, which is good for everyone.
But the key point is that Ye Fan had already obtained a video about Shen Nanfei from the Five Poisons Child.
"Uncle is right! I should take a step back and consider that if the Shen Family provides a core member to take the blame, I should accept it!" Ye Fan's words instantly made Shen Nanpeng tense.
What does Ye Fan mean by this?
Is he planning to go back on his word?
After reaching an agreement with my older brother, is he still planning to use me as the sacrificial lamb?
Shen Mange also felt a sudden tightness in her heart. Ye Fan surely wasn't that kind of person, right?
Meanwhile, Shen Nanfei was stunned for a second, also somewhat puzzled. Was Ye Fan compromising just like that?
If that was his intention all along, why bother with all this fuss just now?
"Fools really are fools, so easily deceived?"
"Hmph!"
"As long as the Shen Family disassociates itself from the case of the attack on the Third Young Master Ye, many future affairs of the Shen Family will proceed much more smoothly!"
However, Ye Fan's next words directly caused Shen Nanfei to explode on the spot!
"Since a core disciple of the Shen Family has to take the blame, shouldn't it be someone with enough weight?" Ye Fan's piercing gaze fixed on Shen Nanfei, continuing, "Although the third uncle is from the Legitimate Line, he doesn't carry enough weight! I think... it would be proper for uncle to take the blame for my third brother!"
"I think, for the sake of the Shen Family, uncle wouldn't object, right? Just now, uncle also said that choosing the third uncle to take the blame was all for the Shen Family, wasn't it?"
Ye Fan stared at Shen Nanfei with a sharp look in his eyes, as if to penetrate Shen Nanfei's soul itself.
Shen Nanfei involuntarily shivered, his pupils dilating wildly.
But more than anything, Shen Nanfei's heart was filled with anger at this moment!
So, Ye Fan was waiting for me here?
The Third Young Master Ye wants me to die in his place?
"Ye Fan, are you playing with me? This joke is a bit too much, I don't like it!" Shen Nanfei's face was dark with fury, and Ye Fan's words left him speechless, forcing him to avoid the topic.
"Uncle, do I look like I'm joking?" Ye Fan spoke coldly, "This is the explanation I want, will uncle give it, or not?"
Ye Fan's domineering reprimand permitted no room for negotiation!
Shen Mange was just worried about her third uncle's safety, but Ye Fan's immediate performance made her start to worry about her father's safety again.
Though her father's recent actions were inconceivable, he was still Shen Mange's father!
If Ye Fan truly confronted her father with swords drawn, what should she do, caught in the middle?
On one side was her father, on the other was her husband!
Shen Mange didn't wish to see either party get hurt!
"Sister-in-law, don't worry! Since big brother has made his move, he must have his reasons. With big brother's character, he definitely won't put sister-in-law in a difficult position!" Guo Li stepped forward to console Shen Mange in a low voice after seeing her troubled expression.
"Ye Fan! Do not be too presumptuous, I cannot give the explanation you want!" Shen Nanfei had completely fallen out with Ye Fan, "Moreover, the Shen Family's involvement in the incident of the Third Young Master Ye's attack is just my speculation; there's no evidence yet... If you want an explanation, you need substantial evidence, right?"
"You want to bully the Shen Family without evidence? My Shen Family won't be bullied so easily!"
Seeing Shen Mange still standing by Ye Fan's side made Shen Nanfei feel a frustration that couldn't be suppressed, "You disgrace! Shen Mange, are you still a member of the Shen Family or not? They're about to kill your own father, and you still want to stay with them?"
Ye Fan gave a cold laugh, "Uncle wants evidence, right? Then watch carefully, uncle!"
Ye Fan nodded to Guo Li beside him, who immediately turned on a bare-eye 4D projector and projected a video clip into the air at the entrance to the Shen Family Courtyard.
The video wasn't of something else—it was the exact scene of Shen Nanfei stabbing Ye Lingyu in the chest in the Shen Family hall secretly recorded by the Five Poisons Child!
"Ah?" Shen Mange saw the figures in the video clearly, her eyes witnessing her own father driving the Battle Saber into the chest of Ye Lingyu, her former fiancé, and she nearly staggered, struggling to stay on her feet... Find your next read on My Virtual Library Empire
And when Shen Nanfei saw this video, he was dumbfounded! His body trembled uncontrollably, and he stood there dazed for a few seconds, his face deathly pale, and his mind going into complete shutdown.
What's going on?
How did the video of that day's scene get leaked?
