Chapter 3275: Who is the Traitor?

Hearing everyone speak with righteous indignation, Xiao Fan remained expressionless.

Good grief, weren't these people talking about him?

If he hadn't quietly infiltrated the Divine Palace once before, the Lord of the Divine Palace probably wouldn't have been on guard.

But Xiao Fan wasn't about to say anything about that…

Besides, it wasn't like he did it on purpose.

He hadn't expected Wu Jie and the others to take action against the Divine Palace.

Xiao Fan didn't hide his true appearance. His expression was cold, but the Jidao Realm experts in the hall all looked at him with friendly gazes.

Everyone had witnessed Xiao Fan's strength. Although he hadn't followed Wu Jie's orders during this operation, if it hadn't been for him, their plan would have certainly failed.

Furthermore, no one would suspect Xiao Fan. Anyone could be the traitor, but Xiao Fan was the only one who couldn't be…

After all, everyone was well aware of the grudge between Xiao Fan and the God Race; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they were sworn enemies.

"If we catch this traitor, we must kill him!"

"Killing him is too good for him… We should throw him into a vat of boiling oil and fry him for forty-nine days…"

"Exactly, just killing him would be letting him off too easily…"

"…"

Xiao Fan: "…"

Hearing their words, Xiao Fan remained expressionless, though he was cursing inwardly. It wasn't like he'd done it on purpose…

Besides, Xiao Fan's infiltration of the Divine Palace had happened before Wu Jie even notified him.

If Xiao Fan had known they were going to strike, he wouldn't have gone there.

But even if Xiao Fan didn't say anything, there was someone else in the hall who knew…

"You're saying there's a traitor? Could you describe it? What exactly happened earlier?" The Black-haired Elder asked, momentarily stunned.

Everyone's gaze turned toward the Black-haired Elder.

This man's Realm was at the Peak of the ninth stage of the Jidao Realm, but he was heavily injured and still had many Seals on him.

"This is… Senior Zhu Zhenghao, the target of our rescue mission," Wu Jie said, introducing the Black-haired Elder's identity.

Upon hearing his identity, the Jidao Realm experts in the hall all bowed.

"Greetings, Senior Zhu Zhenghao."

"Greetings, Senior."

"Greetings, Senior Zhu."

"…"

"Hehe… No need for such formalities…" The Black-haired Elder nodded slowly.

Being revered by everyone again felt good, filling the Black-haired Elder with satisfaction.

"Zhu Zhenghao…" Xiao Fan murmured. His expression turned sour, sensing that the old man was up to no good.

"Everyone, tell me… let this old man analyze what happened," Zhu Zhenghao asked with a smile.

"Well… when we were rescuing you, Senior, the people from the God Race seemed to know about our operation in advance. Isn't that strange?"

"Indeed, the Divine Palace was prepared; otherwise, things would have gone much more smoothly."

"Thanks to Young Friend Xiao, things would have been quite troublesome if not for him…"

"…"

As everyone spoke, Zhu Zhenghao immediately understood what had happened upon hearing the details.

"Hehe… Kid, you're the one who exposed it, aren't you?" Zhu Zhenghao looked at Xiao Fan and sneered.

Xiao Fan: "…"

"It wasn't me. Old man, don't frame an innocent person, I'm telling you…" Xiao Fan said expressionlessly.

"Frame an innocent person? Hahaha… Kid, you consider yourself an innocent person?" Zhu Zhenghao laughed heartily. He was certain that Xiao Fan's infiltration of the Divine Palace had caused them to be on alert.

"Of course I am. Who in the All Heavens and Myriad Worlds doesn't know that I, Xiao Fan, have the best character?" Xiao Fan said righteously.

"…"

Hearing Xiao Fan's words, the expressions of everyone in the hall became complicated.

"Xiao Fan has the best character?!"

This guy had enemies all over the All Heavens and Myriad Worlds—so many that even these Jidao Realm experts felt their scalps tingle just thinking about it.

He'd done plenty of bad things too. Just look at what happened to the Heavenly Phoenix Realm, or those unlucky fellows from the Gui Tong Clan and the Ancient Fierce Clan. Was there a single power that had offended Xiao Fan and remained intact?!"

"You… Kid, don't try to fool me. Though I've just escaped danger, I have a Wisdom Eye for talent. You're definitely not a good person," Zhu Zhenghao shouted.

"Hehe… Old geezer, you're blind as a bat," Xiao Fan sneered.

"Kid, I haven't even settled the score for you finding people to torture me yet!" Zhu Zhenghao said, exasperated. "Believe it or not, once I recover my strength, you'll be the first one I deal with."

"Hehe… I don't believe it." Xiao Fan sneered. "You think I, Xiao Fan, am a pushover? You think you can just deal with me whenever you want?!"

"You, you, you…"

"What about me? If you have a problem, let's have a fight."

"Fine, let's do it! You think I'm afraid of you?!"

"…"
