Shangguan Chen did not answer Shangguan Tong's exclamation. Instead, he remained silent. His eyes flashed as he stared at Xiao Fan. His heart was filled with uncertainty. For a moment, a wave of shock surged in his heart!
Why?
What went wrong? How could this Xiao Fan know about things that happened thousands of miles away? Could it be that he has clairvoyant eyes and ears?
Or is this some kind of mystical secret technique that I have never heard of before?
If it is some kind of secret technique, then who is this Xiao Fan? Where did he come from?
He must not be an ordinary person, right?
Questions kept surging in Shangguan Chen's heart one after another, making Shangguan Chen's heart in a mess.
"Alright, stop making wild guesses. This isn't a secret technique. I don't have the ability to see and hear things from a thousand miles away. This is just an ability to read people's minds!" Xiao Fan said with a smile as though he had seen through Shangguan Chen's thoughts.
"You, you can actually know what I'm thinking?" Hearing Xiao Fan's words, Shangguan Chen not only did not feel relieved, but he became even more nervous. Moreover, there was a trace of fear in his nervousness that came from nowhere.
And this feeling of fear was actually very easy to explain. Because when Shangguan Chen faced Xiao Fan at this time, he felt as if he had been stripped naked. Everything on his body was exposed in front of Xiao Fan. There were no more secrets to speak of.
In such a situation, not to mention Shangguan Chen, anyone who knew that their thoughts and thoughts could be seen through by others would feel a chill in their heart.
"Of course!" Xiao Fan looked at Shangguan Chen's nervous look, and a trace of evil suddenly surged in his heart. Then, he said with a smirk on his face, "No matter what you are thinking now, I know. Yes, I know that you have no woman by your side and that your personal physiological needs are solved with your hands!"
Silence. A deathly silence!
Hearing Xiao Fan's words, everyone was dumbfounded. Then, they turned their heads stiffly and turned their heads to look at Xiao Fan in astonishment.
Shangguan Tong originally wanted to question her father. At this time, when she heard Xiao Fan's words, she was also stunned. First, she looked at Xiao Fan in astonishment. Then, she seemed to have thought of something, and a large blush suddenly appeared on her fair face.
Shangguan Chen, on the other hand, seemed to have been struck by lightning. He could not recover for a long time. When he came back to his senses, he felt the strange and meaningful gazes of the gray-robed elder, Zheng Yu, and his daughter Shangguan Tong, and the others. His old face suddenly became as red as a boiled crab, and his face, turned red.
At this moment, if there was a crack in the ground, Shangguan Chen felt that he really wanted to crawl into it immediately and never see anyone again.
The gray-robed elder turned his head. Zheng Yu raised his hand and covered his face as if he couldn't bear to look at such a tragic situation. Shangguan Tong stomped the ground in shame and indignation. She didn't have the face to continue staying here. Suddenly, she turned around and fled to the inner courtyard at the back without looking back.
The culprit who caused this situation was in the field. Xiao Fan was still standing in the same place calmly, watching all this with a smile.
After an unknown period of time!
"Ahem!" Shangguan Chen coughed twice and finally broke the silence in the air. Then, he looked at Xiao Fan again. He wanted to say something, but he felt that he had nothing to say. He could only smile bitterly.
What else could he say?
Whatever he wanted to do, Shangguan Chen could see through him at a glance. He was almost an invisible person in Shangguan Chen's eyes. So, was there a need to say anything more?
"Okay, I won't tease you anymore. What about the Heart Calming Jade Array? I want to use it! "When Xiao Fan saw that the joke was about to end, he stopped smiling and said.
"Uncle Li, take him there!" Shangguan Chen turned his head and said to the gray-robed elder.
"But City Governor, the Pure Heart Jade Array is …!" The gray-robed elder understood the importance of the Pure Heart Jade Array. He was a little reluctant and said.
"Don't worry. Although your daughter said that she would let me try it for free, I won't use it for free!" Xiao Fan looked at Shangguan Chen and said with a smile, "Doesn't your City Governor's Mansion Defensive Array need to be maintained? Leave this matter to me. Moreover, I will upgrade your defensive formation while I'm at it. The grades of the Triple Chaotic Rain Formation, the Raging Flame Formation, and the Collapsing Mountain Formation are too low. Moreover, they are filled with loopholes. They are simply too weak! "
"Mountain-crumbling Array!"
When he heard Xiao Fan say this name, Shangguan Chen's expression changed again.
The Triple Chaotic Rain Array, the Raging Flame Array, and the Mountain-crumbling Array were the three most important Arrays of the City Governor's Mansion. However, very few people knew about the Mountain-crumbling Array because it was not the original Array of the City Governor's Mansion. Shangguan Chen had asked a friend of his and spent a lot of money to secretly set it up.
It was to give some people in Red Rock City a 'surprise' just in case.
This was a secret. Only Shangguan Chen and Uncle Li knew about it. Even Shangguan Tong did not know about it. Uncle Li's identity was special. Naturally, it was impossible for him to tell others about it, let alone Shangguan Chen.
Right now, Xiao Fan had only just entered the City Lord's Mansion, but he actually knew about the existence of the most powerful and secretive Mountain-crushing Great Formation. This caused Shangguan Chen to feel an inexplicable fear.
"Uncle Li, go ahead!"
Shangguan Chen took a deep look at Xiao Fan and said to the grey-robed old man in a deep voice.
The grey-robed old man also took a deep look at Xiao Fan and then at Zheng Yu, who was stunned behind him. Then, he turned around and walked away.
Xiao Fan followed him indifferently.
Seeing that Xiao Fan had left and had completely disappeared from his sight, Shangguan Chen retracted his gaze and took a deep breath.
"City Governor, I will never tell anyone about the existence of the Mountain-crumbling Array!" Zheng Yu hurriedly knelt on one knee and said with his head lowered.
"It's fine if you know about this. It's fine. Get up!" Shangguan Chen did not seem to care about this. He raised his hand and shook his head.
"Thank you for your trust, City Governor!" Zheng Yu stood up and said to Shangguan Chen in a deep voice.
"Zheng Yu, what do you think of this person?" Shangguan Chen was silent for a moment before he spoke again.
"He's very strong, very mysterious, and … very scary!" Zheng Yu paused for a moment and said firmly.
"That's right. He's indeed very strong, very mysterious, and … very scary!" Shangguan Chen nodded slightly and agreed. Then, he took a deep breath and said with an inexplicable smile on his face, "Perhaps, giving up on Wang Guiyi, Liu Zhiguang, and the He family in exchange for Xiao Fan's favor is not a bad thing. Instead, it might be a great thing!"
"That's possible!" Zheng Yu did not express his opinion and only nodded.
"Alright, go back to work. Be careful tonight. There might be a big change!" Shangguan Chen looked at Zheng Yu, who was speaking cautiously, and shook his head with a smile.
"Yes!" Zheng Yu nodded and quickly walked out.
After Zheng Yu left, Shangguan Chen also disappeared on the spot. No one knew where he went.
.....
The Sun family!
Sun Zhengxiong, Chen Deguang, and a cold-looking general, a white-robed old man, and a beautiful lady sat alone in the Sun family's meeting hall. The surrounding air was so condensed that it was almost impossible to breathe.
The cold-looking general was the short-haired girl's father, Wang Guiyi. The white-robed old man was the long-haired girl's grandfather, Liu Zhiguang. The beautiful lady was the He family's upper echelon, the chubby girl's mother, He Wan!
"I wonder why the Sun family's head stopped us from besieging the City Lord's Mansion and gathered us here?" Wang Guiyi was the first to speak.
Sun Zhengxiong was not the head of the Sun family at the moment. However, the position of the head of the Sun family was vacant, and the annual meeting of the Sun family was about to begin. Sun Zhengxiong was the most popular person to succeed the position of the head of the Sun family. Many people thought that if nothing unexpected happened, Sun Zhengxiong would become the 47th head of the Sun family. Therefore, there was nothing wrong with Wang Guiyi's words.
Liu Zhiguang and He Wan looked at Sun Zhengxiong with cold eyes, as if they wanted Sun Zhengxiong to give them an explanation.
"The three of you, Xiao Fan has already obtained Shangguan Chen's permission to enter the City Lord's Mansion. Even if you besiege the City Lord's Mansion, what are your chances of winning?" Sun Zhengxiong said with a faint smile. He took a sip of tea, then slowly put down the teacup.
"Although the chances of winning are not high, I don't believe that Shangguan Chen would dare to not hand over Xiao Fan." He Wan's voice was very thin and sharp.
"Why wouldn't he dare? He has already allowed Xiao Fan to enter the City Lord's Mansion. If he were to let Xiao Fan out because of your siege, where would he put his face? You must know that everyone in Red Rock City is watching tonight! "Sun Zhengxiong chuckled.
"It's precisely because everyone is watching that I think he wouldn't dare to not hand over Xiao Fan!" He Wan sneered.
"No, it's the exact opposite!" Sun Zhengxiong stretched out a finger, then shook it and said, "Because everyone is watching, he can't show weakness. Because if he shows weakness to you now, then you will definitely take advantage of him. Others will also think that he can't do it at all and will gradually not listen to his orders!"
"In the end, he won't be able to command or lead anyone anymore. So, if he shows any weakness to you and hands over Xiao Fan, then this matter will be a fatal blow to him!"
"So, it's impossible for him to hand over Xiao Fan!"
Wang Guiyi, Liu Zhiguang, and He Wan fell silent when they heard Sun Zhengxiong's words. The three of them were not brainless idiots, but they were blinded by anger and hatred just now, so they didn't think of this. Now that Sun Zhengxiong reminded them, they all came to their senses.
"That's right. Even if we shed all pretense of cordiality with Shangguan Chen, it's impossible for him to hand over Xiao Fan!" Liu Zhiguang nodded slowly with an extremely cold voice. (To be continued.)
