Chapter 168 Living Dead

"What did you say?"

After hearing what the other party said, Yan Xiaoyi thought he was lying, so he picked up the whip again and whipped him hard.

"You are about to die, and you are still lying!"

"You two are obviously together, yet you still say you don't know him. You think I'm easy to fool, don't you?"

"If you don't tell me, I'll skin you alive!"

After being whipped several times, the man still replied: "Sir, please... please don't hit me anymore."

"What I said is true. I didn't lie to you."

Yan Xiaoyi naturally didn't believe what the other party said, so he turned around and interrogated the people next to him.

As a result, several people said the same thing, claiming that they did not know the man holding the black and white swords.

At this moment, Yan Xiaoyi became even angrier.

He just embarrassed himself in front of so many people, all because of that guy.

So, Yan Xiaoyi wanted to know the other party's identity and then take revenge.

He just couldn't believe that even though he was known as the best archer in the world, he couldn't deal with this person.

As long as the opponent is not a grandmaster, you will have absolute confidence that you can defeat your opponent.

Afterwards, when Yan Xiaoyi realized that he could not get anything out of the man, he threw the whip to the ground and left the death row.

……

When Wu Zhu returned to Kyoto, he heard what had just happened from passers-by on the street.

When he heard that Fan Xian was stabbed and his life or death was unknown, he began to panic and kept looking for Fan Xian's whereabouts.

Soon, Wuzhu arrived at an inn.

This was a place he had been to before, and he knew that Fan Xian would definitely be here.

Then, Wu Zhu saw Fan Jian and Chen Pingping in the backyard of the inn.

Originally, the two of them were chatting at the door of the room, preparing for what to do next.

As a result, Wuzhu came over quickly with a swagger.

When Fan Jian found Wu Zhu, his expression changed instantly. He put his hands behind his back and snorted coldly:

"Wuzhu, you still have the nerve to come back!"

"Do you know that it was because of you that Fan Xian was almost killed!"

Wu Zhu ignored Fan Jian, but stopped at the door of the room and said coldly:

"Where's Fan Xian?"

Fan Jian said: "How dare you ask?"

"Get out of here, right now!"

However, Wu Zhu did not leave. He immediately raised the iron pestle in his hand, stood in front of Fan Jian, and said:

"Where's Fan Xian?"

When Fan Jian saw the iron pestle in front of him, he showed no sign of panic and sneered disapprovingly:
"Why, do you still want to kill me?"

Chen Pingping, who was standing nearby, saw the scene and was afraid that something unexpected might happen, so he quickly acted as a peacemaker.

"Don't be impatient, everyone, please take your time and talk."

Chen Pingping pulled Wu Zhu's sleeve and said, "Fan Xian was stabbed just now and is now lying in bed to receive treatment."

"We don't even know if he can survive, so don't do anything. If it affects what's going on inside, that won't be good."

Wuzhu glanced at the room behind him and immediately put away the iron pestle in his hand.

Then he asked, "Who did it?"

Before Chen Pingping could speak, Fan Jian took over the conversation and said:

"Who did it?"

"It's not all because of you."

"If you hadn't found someone to rescue Fan Xian at the execution ground, that person wouldn't have taken the opportunity to attack and almost took Fan Xian's life."

"We have already agreed on this. Why don't you follow the previous plan?"

Facing Fan Jian's question, Wu Zhu's face remained expressionless.

Then he said coldly: "That wasn't me." "What did you say?" Fan Jian thought he had heard it wrong and asked again.

"Didn't you do it?"

Wu Zhu said: "I didn't ask anyone to rescue Fan Xian."

"I left Kyoto an hour ago and just returned."

Chen Pingping was surprised and asked, "How could this happen?"

"what on earth is it?"

Afterwards, Wu Zhu told Fan Jian and Chen Pingping everything that had just happened, and they finally reacted.

Fan Jian frowned and said gloomily, "According to what you said, the person who led you out just now was the one who injured you before."

"And he lured you out, clearly able to kill you, but he didn't do it?"

Wu Zhu nodded and said, "That's right."

Fan Jian clapped his hands and said, "I understand!"

"If I'm not mistaken, the person who led you out and the person who just injured Fan Xian should be in the same group."

"Their target is still Fan Xian."

Chen Pingping suddenly realized, "So that's what's going on. No wonder I felt something was a little off just now."

"In this case, this mysterious force should still be in Kyoto City."

Fan Jian snorted coldly: "What a group of brave and fearless guys, they haven't even left Kyoto City yet."

"This is not only targeting Fan Xian, but also looking down on our incompetence!"

At this moment, Chen Pingping suddenly thought of something and said, "Do you think this mysterious force could be..."

Chen Pingping stopped talking here.

However, Fan Jian knew who he was talking about and immediately shook his head:
"impossible!"

"It definitely couldn't be him."

Chen Pingping said: "I am just guessing, so I naturally don't believe it is him."

"However, I have sent someone to investigate. I believe there will be news soon. We will know then."

At this moment, the door that was originally closed was suddenly opened.

Then, Fei Jie, covered in blood, walked out of the room.

"I don't know what you are arguing about."

"I heard it in the room just now."

When Fan Jian and Fei Jie saw Fei Jie coming out, they hurriedly asked him:

"How is Fan Xian?"

"Is he still alive?"

Fei Jie sighed slowly and said, "Yes and no."

"What do you mean?" Fan Jian asked, "Is he okay?"

Fei Jie said: "After my best efforts to treat him, Fan Xian's life has been saved, but..."

"He was injured too severely, and there was a strong amount of Qi rushing through his body, causing him to fall into a serious coma."

"It's hard to say when he will wake up."

Chen Pingping took a deep breath and said, "You mean, Fan Xian..."

Fei Jie nodded and said, "If we're lucky, he'll be in a coma for a year or so, and he'll be fine when he wakes up."

"If I'm unlucky..."

Fan Jian asked hurriedly: "What will happen then?"

Fei Jie said: "If you are unlucky, you may never wake up in your lifetime."

"That's what we often call the living dead!"

After these words were spoken, everyone else present was stunned.

Especially Fan Jian and Chen Pingping, their faces were filled with disbelief.

The living dead?
Fan Xian actually turned into a living dead!

How could it become like this!
