Chapter 33: Catching the Knife
Where is he?"
Anyway, it's boring to be idle at night.
And Xia Fan was also a little curious about Chen Yuan's purpose of wanting to visit him in private.
What's more, the other party is Chen Ji's brother.
Just for Chen Ji's sake, he did not exclude meeting Chen Yuan.
"Lord Xia, please come with the little one. ”
After getting Xia Fan's consent, Chen Er didn't drag his feet at all, he made a gesture of invitation respectfully, and led Xia Fan to another backyard.
Passing through the gates, he didn't meet a single servant on the way.
Obviously, Chen Er had already made arrangements.
Moment.
In a secluded courtyard in the Guogong Mansion.
Xia Fan saw a tall and handsome young man in front of the stone table in the courtyard, and his eyebrows were seven or eight points similar to Chen Ji, and he could recognize his identity at a glance.
"In Xia Chen, I will meet Lord Xia Zun. ”
Chen Yuan is worthy of being born in the family of the prince, and he is graceful and elegant when he raises his hands and feet, and he can't find fault with the etiquette at all.
"You've lived here all these years?"
Xia Fan looked at this small courtyard overgrown with grass casually.
"Returning to Lord Xia, I have only lived here since my father's death, after all, this is also the home where I have lived for many years. ”
Chen Yuan raised his head and looked around the courtyard and sighed softly.
"Does Chen Ji know that you are still alive?"
Xia Fan retracted his gaze and said.
"He didn't know that, although this younger brother had secretly inquired into my whereabouts, he had found nothing over the years. ”
Chen Yuan shook his head and said.
"Actually, that's fine, just let him be an ordinary emperor who doesn't know anything. ”
"Why don't you want Chen Ji to know that you're still alive?"
Xia Fan shook his eyebrows and said curiously.
“...... Because only in this way can he be better protected. ”
Chen Yuan was silent for a moment.
"Tut-tut, you're really a qualified brother. ”
Xia Fan couldn't help but pouted when he heard this.
"Then again, why do you want to see me this time? ”
"Back to Lord Xia, there is a shocking secret I want to tell you. ”
said.
Chen Yuan quietly glanced at Chen Er, who was waiting outside the courtyard, and Chen Er turned around and left when he saw this.
"What's the secret?"
Xia Fan said nonchalantly.
"This shocking secret is...... The celestials of the upper realm may have already infiltrated our world, so please be extra vigilant with Lord Xia. ”
Chen Yuan's expression was extremely serious.
"Oh, I've known this shocking secret for a long time. ”
Xia Fan suddenly showed a playful smile.
"Lord Xia already knows?"
Chen Yuan was stunned for a moment.
"yes, but I'm curious, how did you know this secret?"
Xia Fan stared at Chen Yuandao meaningfully.
“...... The next meeting knows this secret entirely because of the father. ”
Chen Yuan lowered his head and said without concealment.
"Your father?"
Xia Fan was puzzled.
"Yes, because the father who is below has been eroded by the consciousness of the celestials in the upper realm. ”
Chen took a deep breath and aired.
“...... Interesting, tell me more about what this is all about. ”
Xia Fan suddenly became interested.
The so-called knowing the son is more than the father, and knowing the father is more than the son.
The time goes back to seventeen or eighteen years ago.
is different from Chen Ji, who was forced to leave the capital and go to Yunzhou.
At that time, Chen Yuan and his eldest brother had been staying in the capital to accompany Wei Guogong and get along day and night, so the two brothers were also very aware of their father's character.
Until one day.
Wei Guogong suddenly had an abnormality.
And the first person to discover Wei Guogong's abnormality was Chen Yuan's eldest brother.
Although Wei Guogong's words and deeds were the same as usual, he couldn't hide them from them in some small details.
Chen Yuan's eldest brother did not act rashly after realizing the strangeness, but told Chen Yuan about this discovery as soon as possible, hoping that the brothers would work together to find out what happened to his father.
Outcome.
Wei Guogong seemed to be aware of something.
Eventually, after they left the capital and returned to their ancestral home in Yangchuan.
Chen Yuan's eldest brother was mysteriously killed.
Therefore, Chen Yuan immediately suspected that his father was doing it to his eldest brother.
Worried that his father would attack him, Chen Yuan did not hesitate to take refuge in the Yin Sha Sect, which had secret contact with him, and at the same time in order to protect Chen Xuan and escape from his father's clutches.
Chen Yuan even refers to causing people to assassinate Chen Xuan.
Of course.
Chen Yuan kept his hand behind.
It is impossible for Chen Ji to really die at the hands of the killer he sent.
Think about the goods that chased and killed Chen Ji at the beginning, and you will know what's going on.
After the matter was "revealed".
Chen Yuan also successfully "absconded in fear of crime".
In the years to come.
With the help of the power of the Yin Demon Sect, Chen Yuan was accumulating his own power on the one hand, and on the other hand, he was secretly investigating his father's situation.
He wanted to know.
Why did my father change a person inexplicably.
At first, he thought it was the hand of the Forgotten Soul Sect, after all, the best at manipulating people's hearts in the world is the Forgotten Soul Sect.
And according to the results of the survey.
Wei Guogong did have secret contact with the Forgotten Soul Sect in private.
However, as he investigated deeply, Chen Yuan became more and more frightened.
Many fragmented threads may seem unrelated, but when connected, many terrible things are hidden within.
Chen Yuan didn't dare to speak out.
He knows.
If he leaks his findings.
When the time comes, he will die.
Because the enemy he had to face was terrible.
That's right.
At the beginning, Chen Yuan discovered a mysterious existence, and this mysterious existence was Tianmen.
Pity.
He guessed a little wrong.
His father's change has nothing to do with Heaven's Gate.
Afterward.
His father swept through Shenzhou with the help of Tianmen to establish the Great Wei, and in the process, Wei Guogong also offended too many people in the rivers and lakes, and finally provoked these people to join forces to assassinate Wei Guogong.
All the way.
Chen Yuan was in a cold observance.
Perhaps he no longer regards Wei Guogong as his father.
But before Wei Guogong died.
Chen Yuan saw the other party for the last time.
Unexpectedly, it was this meeting that solved all Chen Yuan's doubts.
He told Chen Yuan.
All his doubts were hidden somewhere in his study.
After saying that, Wei Guogong passed away.
Later, Chen Yuan found the secret compartment in the study room in the Wei State Mansion, and there was a thick letter in the dark compartment.
After opening the letter and reading it, Chen Yuan was already in tears.
Because.
Wei Guogong wrote all his information in this letter.
It turned out to be seventeen or eighteen years ago.
The ontological consciousness of the Upper Realm Celestial Man finally awakened in Wei Guogong's body, but Wei Guogong was a person with a strong mind, although his body mind had been occupied by the Upper Realm Celestial's ontological consciousness, but Wei Guogong's own consciousness was always resisting the other party's devouring and assimilation.
It is estimated that this upper realm celestial whose soul penetrated to Wei Guogong annoyed this stinky and hard guy, especially after the death of Brother Chen Yuan, which aroused Wei Guogong's consciousness to resist desperately.
As a last resort.
This Upper Realm Heavenly Man has reached a certain compromise with Wei Guogong.
This is also the reason why Wei Guogong did not send someone to arrest and hunt down Chen Yuan after that, it is nothing more than that the heavenly people of the upper realm promised Wei Guogong that as long as he no longer came out to make trouble, he would let his son go.
And the scheming Wei Guogong also added a condition.
This condition is to write down his own situation, and I don't know how Wei Guogong successfully forced the other party to agree.
Over time.
Wei Guogong's consciousness gradually began to dissipate.
He knows.
There was not much time left for him.
Once their consciousness dissipates, the Celestials of the Upper Realm will definitely overturn the agreement they had made before.
Fortunately, a sudden assassination gave Wei Guogong a chance.
Originally, there was a way for the Heavenly Beings in the Upper Realm to escape this assassination, but in the end, the residual consciousness of Wei Guogong was destroyed by the influence.
The end of the letter.
Wei Guogong told Chen Yuan.
There are people in this world who, like him, have been occupied by the celestials of the upper realm.
Therefore, let Chen Yuan protect himself in the future and take care of Chen Xuan.
If one day he can meet someone he can trust.
Then tell each other all about it.
It's not just for them, it's for the world.
Chen Yuan once thought about telling this shocking secret to Tianmen, but others were soft-spoken, and it was very likely that there were extremely hidden Upper Realm celestials inside Tianmen, so he could only choose to give up due to various concerns.
When Xia Fan reappeared, he even destroyed the Heavenly Gate in one fell swoop.
Chen Yuan finally saw hope again.
After careful consideration, he decided to tell Xia Fan this shocking secret.
As for the reasons.
In fact, he and Ning Zhi's ideas have something in common.
It's nothing more than that Xia Fan is different from this group of Upper Realm celestials who covet this world.
On the one hand, he comes from other realms, and on the other hand, he is a human being.
I have to say.
Although Xia Fan has been wandering in Shenzhou for less than half a year.
But his style of dealing with people has left a deep impression on people.
In a nutshell.
Xia Fan's character is trustworthy.
What's more, he still has a disagreement with these Upper Realm Heavenly People.
No matter what Chen Yuan and Ning Zhi really thought, the only thing they could count on at the moment was Xia Fan.
This is indeed a very sad thing.
Just as someone else invades your homeland, and you can only hope that outsiders will help you fight off your enemies.
When outsiders successfully repel the enemy.
Will this outsider bare its fangs at their homeland again?
After all, similar things are not uncommon in history.
But why would anyone drink to quench their thirst and make such a seemingly stupid choice?
In a word.
Weakness is original sin.
Never ask for the mercy of the strong.
If you want to control your own destiny, there is only one way to strengthen yourself.
Xia Fan understands this very well.
For this.
He worked hard for ten years, sixteen years.
Exactly twenty-six years.
And how many years has he crossed into this world?
In other words.
In the past twenty-seven years, he has only been in this world for one year, and half of that time he is still in the stage of being oppressed and weak.
There are always gains and losses in life.
Although he misses out on a lot of the excitement of this world, he has the power to control his own destiny.
How old is the once invincible celestial?
In the end, it wasn't Xia Fan who pushed it sideways.
Now how old are the soul descenders who make Chen Yuan, Ning Zhi and others panic in their hearts?
Xia Fan will directly cut them down.
Ultimately.
It is precisely because Xia Fan has the power to dominate everything.
Big fists are the last word.
Sixteen years ago.
Ning Duo dared to calculate himself, the Demon Sect dared to deal with himself, the major sects were not afraid of themselves, and the Heavenly Gate directly killed the killer.
What now?
Who dares to be naughty in front of Xia Fan?
He killed the other with one finger.
So much so that all the current souls descending to heaven have disappeared, and they dare not make any mistakes.
Everyone was in awe of him.
"There is no need to worry about the affairs of the Upper Realm Celestials, because I have come to the capital this time to deal with these things. ”
Xia Fan gave his response in a normal tone.
"In the future, you just have to follow my instructions. ”
"Thank you Lord Xia for your great kindness......"
Chen Yuan didn't say much, and bowed deeply to Xia Fan.
"I am not a saint, much less a savior, and you must know that I am not doing all this for you and your world. ”
Xia Fan shook his head, turned around and walked towards the outside of the court gate.
"Congratulations to Lord Xia. ”
Chen Yuan still maintained his posture unchanged.
After returning to his room.
Xia Fan didn't fall asleep, but was casually flipping through the books on the shelves.
"Come in. ”
After turning two pages, Xia Fan said without raising his head.
The next moment.
The door opened.
A figure slowly walked in.
"Seniors. ”
After the other party stepped into the door, he looked at Xia Fan's back in front of the bookshelf and greeted him respectfully.
"Sorry to keep you waiting. ”
Xia Fan casually stuffed the collection of books back into the bookshelf, turned to look at the person in front of him.
Xie Linyuan.
"What about Lu Shaoyang?"
"He has been waiting for his predecessor for a long time in the inn in the capital. ”
Xie Linyuan said indifferently.
"It's not early today, go back and tell Lu Shaoyang for me, let him see me after dawn, and then I will take him to the palace to discuss the next specific plan." ”
Xia Fan waved his hand casually.
"Yes! The junior said goodbye first. ”
After speaking.
Xie Linyuan turned around and left the room without hesitation.
Early the next morning.
After breakfast.
Xia Fan took Zhou Xiaoyu and Bai Feiyan out of the gate of the Wei Mansion, and there were already people waiting outside the door.
In addition to the old man in green shirts yesterday, there are also Xie Linyuan and Lu Shaoyang.
A simple greeting is over.
They walked in the direction of the palace.
"What's the situation with Surves now?"
En route.
Xia Fan suddenly said to the old man in green shirts.
"Returning to Lord Xia, now the Su Wei Division is in vain, the major divisions that were originally in the town and the Tianmen disciples in the division are gone, and the Su Wei Division in various places is the same......"
Guo Quan said in a heavy tone.
"Although Your Majesty has sent the Xuanjia Army from the imperial court to temporarily settle in Suweisi, it is bound to be problematic in the long run. ”
"Bai Feiyan. ”
Xia Fan nodded thoughtfully.
He turned to Bai Feiyan, who was following closely behind.
"Your Excellency, is there anything you need to order?"
Bai Feiyan hurriedly stepped forward and said nervously.
"I've given you a task. ”
Xia Fan casually unlocked Bai Feiyan's forbidden martial arts.
"Next, Su Wei Si will be handed over to you for the time being, and immediately think of trying to recall all the Tianmen disciples of Su Wei Si, re-erect Su Wei Si's shelf, and tell them that I will not blame them because of my personal grudge with Tianmen......
“...... What if they won't come back?"
Bai Feiyan said cautiously.
"One word, kill!"
Xia Fan said in a cold tone.
"Because I don't want them to be a hidden danger in my plans. ”
