"Father!"
Seeing Shangguan Chen in the front hall, Shangguan Tong immediately revealed a bright smile. She flew towards Shangguan Chen like a swallow returning to the forest.
"Tong 'er, it's good that you're fine!"
Shangguan Chen's slightly wrinkled face was full of love. He gently patted Shangguan Chen's head and said in a gentle voice, "Don't worry about it.
"Yes!" Shangguan Tong nodded, then turned around and walked back to Xiao Fan. She pointed at Xiao Fan and said to Shangguan Chen with a smile, "Father, this is the Xiao Fan that I told you about a few days ago!"
Shangguan Chen did not speak immediately. Instead, he narrowed his eyes and a sharp light flashed in them. He sized up Xiao Fan from head to toe.
From his appearance, Xiao Fan was really ordinary!
His appearance could not be considered too ordinary, but neither could he be considered handsome. He could only be described as ordinary. His entire body was dressed in black, and his body was thin. There was even a trace of sickly paleness on his face.
This person was no different from the rest of the crowd. He was like an ordinary drop of water in the sea of people. If Shangguan Chen did not know what had happened in the Linfeng Formation Guild, it was really hard for him to imagine that this young man would be so bloodthirsty and ruthless. He was so arrogant and wanton that he killed Sun Zhengwei and the others without caring about the consequences.
While Shangguan Chen was observing Xiao Fan, Xiao Fan was also sizing up Shangguan Chen.
Although they had never met before, Xiao Fan was still a little interested in Shangguan Chen. The reason was very simple. It was because Shangguan Chen was the same as him. They were both born at the bottom of society. They both had aspirations in their hearts. They hoped to change the current structure of society and had done a lot of practical things for it.
Perhaps there were many who had this wish, but there were very few who dared to do it and had the courage to resist. Through Shangguan Tong's narration and Zhang Zongling's memories, Xiao Fan knew that Shangguan Chen was a person who wholeheartedly wanted to change Red Rock City for the sake of this wish. He had put in a lot of effort and paid a price that ordinary people could not imagine.
Because of this, Xiao Fan admired Shangguan Chen from the bottom of his heart.
However, at this moment, Xiao Fan raised his eyebrows, and a strange look of surprise appeared on his face. This was because he felt the murderous aura from Shangguan Chen that had just passed away but had not completely dissipated.
"What? Do you want to kill me? "Xiao Fan looked at Shangguan Chen and suddenly said with a chuckle.
Xiao Fan had lived for five thousand years. He had seen countless people and experienced countless things. Therefore, he could basically guess the thoughts and thoughts of many people at a glance.
Shangguan Chen was able to rise from the grassroots. Then, he became an inner disciple of the Shuiyun Holy Land and came to Red Rock City. He used various means to divide and suppress in an attempt to change Red Rock City. Therefore, he definitely would not be like Shangguan Tong who spoke and did things based on her personal feelings without any shrewdness.
His first principle in doing things was also the word 'benefit'.
Therefore, it was not difficult to guess that after knowing that he had gotten into big trouble, his first reaction should be to kill him. He wanted to capture him and send him to Wang Guiyi, Liu Zhiguang, and the He Family.
However, it seemed that his conscience was not completely devoured by the word 'benefit'. Therefore, in the end, his conscience prevailed over his benefits and he did not attack him. Instead, he allowed him to enter the Castellan Mansion and prepare to deal with the trouble that would come later.
Xiao Fan was not angry about Shangguan Chen's intention to kill him.
In fact, at this moment, if Xiao Fan were in Shangguan Chen's shoes, Xiao Fan would probably have made the same decision. It was normal for Shangguan Chen to want to kill him immediately to avoid trouble, so there was nothing to be angry about.
On the contrary, if Shangguan Chen wanted to protect him immediately, Xiao Fan would have to be more cautious.
This was because people who only had conscience in their hearts and did not care about gains and losses would often do bad things with good intentions. Sometimes, the destructive power caused by such people was much greater than those who had no conscience and only cared about gains and losses.
Xiao Fan had met several such people before, and one of them used to be a powerful figure in the Magic Kingdom. When Xiao Fan was in seclusion for a period of time, he climbed to a high position. He thought that he was doing the Magic Kingdom a service for the country and the people, so he took the initiative to launch a domestic campaign to reduce the number of soldiers in the various legions of the Magic Kingdom. Later, it was because of his kind but foolish decision that the Magic Kingdom was later attacked by the Immortal Emperor's Immortal Court Army. Many people died because of this kind but foolish decision.
After Xiao Fan came out of seclusion and found out about this matter, he did not say a word and directly deprived him of his position and rights. He was then escorted to the Execution Stage and beheaded in public. While this person was being escorted to the Execution Stage, he was still very indignant. In the prison carriage, he kept scolding Xiao Fan for being militaristic and constantly accused him of ignoring the lives of the people of the Magic Kingdom and insisting that his ideas and actions were correct.
"You …!" Seeing that Xiao Fan had seen through his thoughts at a glance, Shangguan Chen suddenly became a little flustered. However, he quickly calmed down and then looked at Xiao Fan in surprise and doubt. "How, how did you know?"
Since Xiao Fan had seen through his previous thoughts and actions at this time, if he still insisted on denying it, it would make him seem too ridiculous and narrow-minded!
A man should be open and aboveboard. Since it was indeed what he wanted to do, why wouldn't he dare to admit it?
Xiao Fan did not answer Shangguan Chen's question. Instead, he smiled and did not say a word. However, the admiration in his eyes became more and more intense.
Not bad, daring to think, daring to do, and daring to admit it. After all, he was a man.
At this time, Shangguan Tong, the gray-robed old man, and Zheng Yu were all stunned.
The gray-robed old man was stunned because Xiao Fan was not beside Shangguan Chen just now. It was impossible for him to hear the conversation between him and Xiao Fan. Then, how could he tell that Shangguan Chen wanted to kill Xiao Fan?
Could it be that he had the ability to see through people's minds?
Zheng Yu was stunned because he really did not understand Shangguan Chen's thoughts now. If he wanted to kill Xiao Fan, why did he let him enter the Castellan Mansion? If he did not want to kill Xiao Fan, why did he want to kill Xiao Fan?
