Chapter 3871: The Unlucky Zhuge Wen

"Heavenly Venerable, please calm your anger…"

Ancestor Xiahou had been kicked, but he still dared not say a single harsh word.

Heavenly Venerable Shenzhan was fuming with rage, his figure disappearing from sight.

He couldn't even be bothered to say anything more to Ancestor Xiahou…

The other party was simply too infuriating.

If it weren't for the sake of Xiahou Yan's Face, Ancestor Xiahou would have already died just now.

"Zhuge Wen… just you wait."

Heavenly Venerable Shenzhan gritted his teeth, intending to capture Zhuge Wen.

In a flash, three days later…

"My Lord, I… I don't know!"

"Do you dare say that you didn't steal Xiahou Yan's corpse?!"

After Heavenly Venerable Shenzhan's deductions, it took only three days for him to capture Zhuge Wen.

When capturing Zhuge Wen, he was in the middle of excavating an Ancient Tomb… it was the burial site of a Family's Old Ancestor.

As it happened, Heavenly Venerable Shenzhan suddenly appeared, and beat Zhuge Wen so soundly that he had no power to parry.

At that moment, Zhuge Wen knew he had provoked someone he shouldn't have…

As it turned out, Heavenly Venerable Shenzhan didn't kill Zhuge Wen, but instead brought him to a hidden cave and began to interrogate him.

"I… Xiahou Yan, who… who is she?!" Zhuge Wen asked weakly.

"The person inside the black gold coffin of the Xiahou Family…" Heavenly Venerable Shenzhan said in a deep voice.

"That… I don't know. Isn't the black gold coffin still at the Xiahou Family?" Zhuge Wen was completely confused, having no idea what had happened.

"You say? The black gold coffin is still at the Xiahou Family?!"

"Yes, yes, yes… it must be. I didn't steal it at the time," Zhuge Wen said urgently.

Zhuge Wen was a very clever person; from the moment he saw Heavenly Venerable Shenzhan, he had been thinking about where exactly he had offended the other party.

The other party had directly asked about the name Xiahou Yan and also mentioned the black gold coffin, so he had to distance himself from the matter of the black gold coffin.

"Then where did the black gold coffin go?!"

Hearing this, Heavenly Venerable Shenzhan was stunned, looking at Zhuge Wen in disbelief.

"I don't know… really, I really don't know." Zhuge Wen shook his head repeatedly.

Heavenly Venerable Shenzhan: "…"

"You… tell me exactly what happened," Heavenly Venerable Shenzhan said with a dark Face, gritting his teeth.

"Yes." Zhuge Wen nodded and recounted how he had snuck into the Xiahou Family, knocked out two guards at the Heavenly Saint Realm, quietly entered the high tower, and then tried to break the Seal.

Then, Ancestor Xiahou appeared, set up a Barrier, and fought with him…

Zhuge Wen told Heavenly Venerable Shenzhan all of these events exactly as they happened.

"Just like that?!"

"Yes, yes, that's the process. I really didn't see the black gold coffin!" Zhuge Wen nodded repeatedly and raised his right hand: "I, Zhuge Wen, swear to the heavens that I really didn't steal the black gold coffin. If it were me… I'll die tomorrow, the kind of death where my Divine Soul is completely destroyed!"

Hearing Zhuge Wen make such a vicious oath.

Heavenly Venerable Shenzhan felt even more suspicious. If Zhuge Wen wasn't lying, could it be that Ancestor Xiahou was lying?!

Thinking of this, Heavenly Venerable Shenzhan took Zhuge Wen and headed back to the Xiahou Family.

At this moment, Ancestor Xiahou was sighing at the sky, his Face full of exhaustion.

Having finally met the Heavenly Venerable Shenzhan he had been longing for, the other party ended up ignoring their Xiahou Family.

"Sigh… ancestors, how can our Xiahou Family ever rise again?" Ancestor Xiahou sighed, his whole being filled with sorrow.

And at this moment…

Heavenly Venerable Shenzhan had already arrived with Zhuge Wen and threw him directly in front of Ancestor Xiahou.

"Old man, you two confront each other!"

Hearing this, Ancestor Xiahou was startled.

Good heavens.

Heavenly Venerable Shenzhan was back!

Actually, Ancestor Xiahou really wanted to ask Heavenly Venerable Shenzhan if he could knock on the door when he arrived; this was too terrifying.

However, when Ancestor Xiahou saw Zhuge Wen, he was suddenly both surprised and delighted.

"Zhuge Wen, where is the corpse of our Old Ancestor Xiahou Yan?!"
