Chapter 185: The Shen Family's Secret

The wind was raging, and the sand and dust were blowing. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoUnder the gray sky, two figures, a man and a woman, were speeding rapidly and incoherently above the endless sea of sand.

The woman has short ear-length hair, with a heroic spirit in her beauty, and the short-haired young man next to her, although the appearance is not very handsome, but a face that has been sharpened and hardened has a strong masculine atmosphere that fascinates the opposite sex.

These two people are Shen Meng and Luo Fan.

At this time, Luo Fan had already taken the reducing agent to eliminate the effect of the deformation gene potion and restored his true appearance.

According to Shen Meng, his identity has been completely exposed, and now everyone already knows that Chen Fan, who lives in Jinshan City, is Luo Fan, and it is only a matter of time before he is connected with the sudden appearance of the killer Luo Fanchen. So, there is no point in continuing to change your appearance.

So at Shen Meng's request, Luo Fan was restored to his original appearance.

"I finally know now why you asked me to help you kill Shi Qianjun in the first place." In the midst of galloping, Luo Fan suddenly spoke, he still had a lot of questions in his heart that had not been answered, so he just took this opportunity to ask Shen Meng, "But I still don't understand, when did you start to know Shi Qianjun's secret?" ā€

"I thought you'd keep these questions in your stomach and wouldn't ask them." Shen Meng chuckled and teased Luo Fan.

Both of them are high-level powerhouses with abilities, and although they are running at high speed, they still talk and laugh in their mouths, and their speed of speech is almost no different from that of ordinary speech.

At this time, Shen Mengxiang explained: "Our Shen family has been a loyal supporter of Shi Qianjun since hundreds of years ago, and it is also one of the forces he single-handedly fostered back then. Our main job is to help Shi Qianjun secretly accumulate economic and military power, and lay a solid foundation for his plan to revive the civilization of Atlantis. It's just that this truth is so terrible that ****** serious crimes have been committed, so even within the family, only a very small number of members with the head of the family as the core know this secret. As the next head of the family, my father told me the secret shortly after I left school for Tianluoxing. ā€

"However, since your Shen family should be loyal to Shi Qianjun, then why did you kill him instead? Also, what's the deal with your identity as a 'shadow shaser'? Luo Fan continued to ask.

"That's because my father stumbled upon something." Shen Meng's tone changed, and there was a strong hatred in his voice, "At that time, I was not born yet, and my father was also very young and did not inherit the position of the head of the family. He accidentally discovered that Shi Qianjun had been using the technology of the Atlantean civilization to influence the brainwaves of the heads of the Shen family in the past dynasties, brainwashing them, so that the previous heads of the family and the entire family could maintain absolute loyalty to him, my grandfather's loyalty to Shi Qianjun was the effect of this brainwashing device! When my father found out about this, he was shocked and angry, and he wanted to kill him immediately. However, the difference in strength between the two sides was too great, and my father finally chose to forbear. ā€

"However, in this way, won't he also be brainwashed by Shi Qianjun after inheriting the position of the head of the family?" Luo Fan asked suspiciously.

"He found a solution. Although my father's cultivation talent is very ordinary, and he is not outstanding in terms of personal combat effectiveness, he has a very rare scientific and technological talent. Our Shen family has always been loyal to Shi Qianjun, and naturally obtained a lot of Atlantean civilization technology from him, and through repeated study of these technologies and equipment, my father designed an instrument that could counteract the effect of the brainwashing device and not be discovered, and successfully concealed Shi Qianjun, who thought he was careless and had everything under control. So, before my grandfather died, my father managed to retain his personal will and sit in the position of head of the family. From that day on, he pretended to obey Shi Qianjun's instructions on the surface, but secretly accumulated strength, ready to wait for a suitable opportunity to fight back. Speaking of this, Shen Meng suddenly sighed, "It's a pity that there was an unexpected flaw in his plan......"

Luo Fan was taken aback: "What happened to you?" ā€

"My sister Shen Xue, she is in love with Shi Qianjun."

"What?" Luo Fan was really taken aback, this news was too shocking, "Shi Qianjun is an old antique who has lived for more than 40,000 years, how old is your sister, and she actually likes Shi Qianjun?" ā€

"It's not love, it's love." Shen Meng corrected Luo Fan's wording, "She fell madly in love with Shi Qianjun and took completely reckless actions for him. ā€

"What did she do?"

Luo Fan had met with Shen Xue twice before, once when Shen Xue came to kill him, and the second time was when he saw the conversation between her and Shen Meng's sisters on the big screen before. Through what Shen Xue said twice, Luo Fan already had some guesses in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it rashly.

"Xiaoxue is a very smart girl, and she is very talented in cultivation. When she was 14 years old, she cultivated to the fifth level of strengthening with the assistance of her family's resources. And after finding out about his father's misrepresentation and wronging of Shi Qianjun, she thought that it was a betrayal of his beloved, so she actually wanted to kill our father because of this! ā€

After listening to Shen Meng's words, Luo Fan took a deep breath: Shen Xue, this girl is simply crazy! For the sake of love, she has become paranoid to the point of unreasonableness.

After thinking about it, Luo Fan still asked: "Of course she didn't succeed, right?" ā€

"No matter how shrewd a father is, he still has no defensiveness against his children. It was a really dangerous one, and I almost made her succeed, and in the end I stopped her at the last moment. That's why Xiaoxue has always hated me very much. Shen Meng looked at the endless yellow sand in front of him and said with a gloomy expression.

Today's Shen Meng, after going through a lot of tempering, is no longer the young girl she was at the beginning. She has transformed into a steady and mature person, faintly adding more feminine charm. It's just that at this time, there is a lingering sadness between her eyebrows.

Advancing these past events is simply revealing the old scars in her heart. Luo Fan couldn't bear it, so he opened his mouth to stop him: "Xiaomeng, I shouldn't ask about this." You don't have to go on talking about those unpleasant pasts. ā€

Shen Meng turned his head to look at Luo Fan, showing a grateful smile, but said in his mouth: "I'm fine, don't worry." Then she continued.

"After the failure of the assassination of my father, Xiaoxue defected from the family and stayed by Shi Qianjun's side since then, and Shi Qianjun also knew all my father's plans through Xiaoxue."

"Isn't he angry?" Luo Fan was very strange in his heart, since the plan was revealed, Shi Qianjun should take a thunderous action against the Shen family, whether it was out of revenge or to extinguish his mouth. And with Shi Qianjun's strength, the Shen family may not have any way to stop his move.

"No, Shi Qianjun's reaction was beyond the expectations of all of us. Instead of retaliating, he proposed a new plan for cooperation. He claimed that brainwashing was just a means of insurance, saying that there would be no more interference with the head of the family, and that everyone would cooperate fairly and mutually beneficial in the future. ā€

Why would he do that? That's a bit unusual. ā€

"Because he took a fancy to my talent. Without going through any formal cultivation, I was able to block Xiaoxue's attack completely by virtue of my innate instinct, and she was already a fifth-level enhancer at that time, which shows that I have extremely high talent, and once I start formal and systematic cultivation, I am likely to achieve a lot of achievements in the future. The Atlantean civilization has a very powerful martial art, which is developed by combining the advantages of biotechnology and ancient martial arts, but it has not yet found a suitable successor. Shi Qianjun inspected my physique and thought that I had a great chance of practicing this martial art, its name was Deep Space Projection Technique, and the person who could practice this peerless skill was called 'Shadow Evil'. ā€

"So that's ......" Luo Fan finally understood the meaning of the shadow, "I have one last question left, Shi Qianjun said before that he wanted to tell me a big secret, do you know what it is?" ā€

"I know......" Shen Meng hesitated for a moment, as if wondering whether to say it or not, but finally said, "That's the secret about your father's murder......"
