1114 sWho’s that Brother Wu?” (1/2)
”Who's that Brother Wu?”
Xu Que heard Lan Hetu as he turned around to see for himself.
He had long been aware of that chill, though not as bad as the Terrifying Spiritual Qi, but there was a tinge of injustice and resentment in the chill; it was akin to a soul which had died wrongfully. That chill came from the man in the black robe that was at the Later Stage of the Human Celestial Stage in front of him!
”Brother-in-law, try punching me. I want to see if I'm dreaming!” Just then, Lan Hetu spoke in astonishment.
”Oh yes, sure!” Xu Que had excitement written all over his face as he clenched his sandbag-sized fist and pretended to crash it down onto Lan Hetu's face.
Lan Hetu was instantly awake from the shock, he quickly screamed, ”No, no, no brother-in-law, don't punch me, I'm sure it's not a dream!”
After he ended, he looked at the figure walking towards them in astonishment, he murmured, ”I must be seeing a ghost, Brother Wu was obviously dead, and how could he be here?”
”Don't worry about seeing a ghost. Let me teach you a mantra that could wash away all filthiness, demons and monsters!” Xu Que patted Lan Hetu's shoulders.
Lan Hetu was surprised, ”Mantra?”
Xu Que laughed, ”Come, read after me. Rich, strong, democratic, civilized, harmonious, free, equal, just, legal, patriotic, professional, honest and friendly!”
”Uh?” Lan Hetu was dumbfounded and in confusion; he didn't understand what Xu Que was talking about.
”Alright, we've done reading the mantra and he's still here. It suggests that he's not a ghost but a human!” Xu Que shrugged his shoulders and laughed.
He gazed at the figure that was walking slowly towards them. His steps were very light and his body seemed very light too. It was really like a ghost floating in the air. It was astonishing.
What's more, the chilliness exuding from that figure was so odd. What kind of experiences did he go through to have such a strong resentment?
”Could it be…”
Xu Que was suddenly thunderstruck. Did that man know that he had been dallying with Lan Xinyue and felt that he was betrayed?
That's not scientific! Xu Que thought.
Under such situation, shouldn't he choose to forgive me? Xu Que thought.
”Brother … Brother Wu?” Just then, Lan Hetu took a step forward and tried calling out to him.
He dared not be sure whether the black-robed man in front of him was Wu Shifeng. The Wu Shifeng he remembered wasn't like that; he was approachable and akin to interacting with a noble and knowledgeable man and nurtured by him as they interacted. The old Wu Shifeng wasn't like the current gloomy existence that caused his uneasiness.
”It's me!”
The man in a black robe slowly raised his head and looked at Lan Hetu as he responded.
His voice was very hoarse, like an old-fashioned engine trembling; it was extremely unpleasant and harsh.
Lan Hetu was once again stunned, his face full of disbelief, ”Brother Wu, I thought you... you've already...”
”I'm not dead!” Wu Shifeng responded lightly.
Lan Hetu couldn't help but had his hair stand on its end in an instant. He couldn't stand his voice, let alone the tinge of injustice and resentment chilly aura exuding from Wu Shifeng.
He was really confused. Was that man really the old Wu Shifeng?
...
At the same time, in an inn across the street, two figures stood on the windowsill. They were Fu Shanchuan and Lin Huan from the Heaven Alliance!
Fu Shanchuan had devised a plan. As a tactician, he must keep an eye on the development of the situation. Lin Huan came over to watch the bustle and he would try to do some damage in any way.
Just then, both of them watched the situation over at Xu Que's side, and there weren't a slightest change in their expressions.
”Fu Shanchuan, are you sure that this Wu Shifeng could let Lan Xinyue fall in love with him again?” Lin Huan sneered.
”When did I say I wanted Lan Xinyue to fall in love with Wu Shifeng? I wanted Lan Xinyue to repay a debt of gratitude for Wu Shifeng!” Fu Shanchuan smiled indifferently; he was confident of his tactics.
”Repay? How? Marry him?” Lin Huan laughed.
Fu Shanchuan shook his head, ”I was there when the nest in the western outskirts was in chaos. The woman thought that Wu Shifeng saved her life. In fact, she didn't know that the person who attacked her and robbed her of the Vital Rice was Wu Shifeng too. But it doesn't matter. With that misunderstanding, it'll be good to let Wu Shifeng asked her for help. She'll certainly give in!”
”What kind of help?” Lin Huan asked.
Fu Shanchuan smiled, ”For that, you don't need to know!”
”Humph, Fu Shanchuan, don't be too full of yourself. The grand plot about the western outskirts, you've betted everything on Wu Shifeng and Lan Xinyue, be careful that you don't lose all your bets!” Lin Huan hummed and refused to accept his explanation.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click for visiting.
”I've never failed!” Fu Shanchuan smiled faintly and his eyes were brimming with confidence.
...
In that moment, Lan Hetu was still in confusion, it was hard for him to collect himself.
