Chapter 2671: It Wasn’t Xiao Fan Who Killed Him

Xiao Fan's face was livid. He felt as if his internal organs were churning violently, and his Primordial Spirit was the same.

"Hmm?" Immortal Lord Wen Zhen's face was livid; there was surprisingly no reaction at all from Xiao Fan.

He was completely calm, without any reaction whatsoever… as if nothing had happened at all.

"How could this be…" Immortal Lord Wen Zhen refused to believe it. He continued to channel his own Essence Blood, wanting to detect even a trace of a flaw from Xiao Fan.

But unfortunately, in the end, not a single flaw appeared!

Xiao Fan's body was not stained with the blood of anyone from his Wen Family!

Nearby, the Palace Master of Kongchen Palace, Immortal Lord De Ye, Immortal Lord Yulong, and the others were all stunned. Xiao Fan was actually unaffected?

Did that not mean that Wen Shi truly wasn't killed by him?

Then who could have killed Wen Shi?

Immortal Lord Wen Zhen would definitely not make a mistake; Xiao Fan was absolutely innocent right now.

Wen Zhen frantically poured in spiritual power, activating the power of the blood-colored rune, wanting to uncover the truth. But unfortunately, no matter how hard he tried, Xiao Fan remained calm throughout.

"Elder Wen Zhen, how is it?" Xiao Fan said calmly.

"You… you really didn't kill Wen Shi?" Immortal Lord Wen Zhen coldly questioned.

"Of course. I said before that I didn't kill Wen Shi; it was you, Immortal Lord Wen Zhen, who didn't believe me!" Xiao Fan suppressed his pain and smiled faintly.

"This… damn it!" Immortal Lord Wen Zhen's face was livid. Could he have really guessed wrong?

It wasn't Xiao Fan who killed Wen Shi; was there another culprit?

Could it be that someone else was framing him?

After all, Wen Shi had always been arrogant, relying on being a Wen Family Disciple to commit all kinds of evils daily, so taking this opportunity…

In an instant, Immortal Lord Wen Zhen thought of many things.

"Haa…" Immortal Lord Wen Zhen let out a breath, and the blood-colored rune in his hand dissipated.

Xiao Fan also breathed a sigh of relief. The churning feeling inside his body disappeared; his original plan was indeed correct.

He didn't kill Wen Shi himself; he let the Mummy do it for him.

In this way, no matter what methods Immortal Lord Wen Zhen used, it wouldn't end up burning him in the end.

"Wen Zhen, did you find anything?" the Palace Master of Kongchen Palace asked with a faint smile.

Wen Zhen: "…"

"No, Wen Shi… wasn't killed by him." Immortal Lord Wen Zhen said in a deep voice, his face dark.

He naturally heard the mocking tone in the Palace Master of Kongchen Palace's words.

Immortal Lord Yulong, Immortal Lord De Ye, and others smiled bitterly one after another and spoke up to comfort Immortal Lord Wen Zhen.

"Wen Zhen, you have so many descendants; if one dies, it dies. Don't be too sad…"

"That's right, Wen Zhen. This matter has nothing to do with Xiao Fan; it's most important for you to find the real culprit quickly."

"Yeah, Wen Zhen… stop fixating on Xiao Fan; go quickly and find the real culprit."

"…"

Wen Zhen: "…"

"Fine, I got it!" Immortal Lord Wen Zhen glared fiercely at Xiao Fan, then turned and left.

Since Xiao Fan was not the culprit who killed Wen Shi, he had no reason to keep fixating on him.

Moreover, Immortal Lord Wen Zhen suspected whether someone wanted to use his hand to eliminate Xiao Fan.

If that were the case, Immortal Lord Wen Zhen couldn't easily be fooled.

He wanted to investigate who exactly killed Wen Shi…

The fact that Wen Shi was his blood descendant was only part of it; mainly, Immortal Lord Wen Zhen did not like being played for a fool!!

Seeing Immortal Lord Wen Zhen leave, Xiao Fan's heart temporarily settled down. He was safe for now…

"Alright, Xiao Fan, you may withdraw as well…" the Palace Master of Kongchen Palace said with a smile.

"Yes, Disciple will take his leave!" Xiao Fan cupped his fists in a bow, then saluted the other Kongchen Palace Elders in the main hall before leaving.

In this incident, Xiao Fan had done nothing wrong.

Wen Xing had abused his power for personal gain, forcing Xiao Fan to go to the Green Forest Source Realm to find the senluo wood essence. Later, Wen Shi blocked his path, wanting to eliminate Xiao Fan, only to be severely injured by Xiao Fan, and subsequently let go by Xiao Fan…

Regarding these matters, it could be said that Xiao Fan acted correctly!

But the problem was, why did Wen Shi die?

Who had a grudge against Wen Shi and wanted to kill him?

Or was it that they wanted to frame Xiao Fan and thus killed Wen Shi?

Or was it for some other reason?

"This matter is full of suspicious points… Everyone, if you have free time later, you may go and investigate it," the Palace Master of Kongchen Palace said slowly.

Although it was just the death of one Wen Shi, it was insignificant for Kongchen Palace.

But he worried whether some conspiracy was brewing.

A thousand-mile dike is destroyed by an ant nest; there must be a reason why Kongchen Palace has been able to exist for millions of years!

"Yes!" "Yes!" "Yes!" "…"

Immortal Lord De Ye, Immortal Lord Yulong, and the other Elders all acknowledged in unison.

They naturally knew what the Palace Master of Kongchen Palace was worried about.
